Chapter 1049: Chapter 1053 This Girl… Is Too Forward Chapter 1049: Chapter 1053 This Girl… Is Too Forward Ye Xingbei’s heart skipped a beat.

She snuggled closer to his side and tilting her head, brought her lips to his ear, “I’m serious! Wasn’t it you who said it? Only you are the one to be with me until we’re old, and Xiao Xue will also have someone to be with her till old age. We together will prioritize our love over friendship; it’s only fair.”

Gu Junzhu chuckled softly, unable to resist kissing her lightly, “I’ve witnessed a friendship as genuine as plastic flowers.”

Ye Xingbei blushed, casting a sidelong glance at him, “Don’t you prioritize your lover over friends?”

Gu Junzhu’s lips curved, and he said leisurely, “It’s commonly accepted that we men prioritize our lovers over friends.”

Unable to help herself, Ye Xingbei laughed, raising an eyebrow, “But you men always like to say, ‘Brothers are like limbs, women are like clothes!'”
“Right,” the Fifth Lord of Gu nodded seriously, “You’ve seen people lose limbs, but have you ever seen anyone running around naked without clothes?”

“…” Ye Xingbei couldn’t help but burst into laughter.

“Beibei, what are you snickering at?” Yian Jingxue turned to look at her, “Hurry up, don’t be so weak-kneed at the sight of your man that you can’t walk.”

“What nonsense are you talking about?” Ye Xingbei retorted, “Ladylike! Composed! Gracious!”

Yian Jingxue stuck out her tongue sheepishly, stealing a glance at Han Zuo.

Han Zuo just happened to be looking at her too.

Her gaze collided with Han Zuo’s eyes, making her cheeks flush red.

Her heart started thumping wildly, and countless voices in her head shouted, “So handsome, so handsome, so handsome!”

For Yian the Dog, Han Zuo’s cold aloof handsomeness was an absolute killer.

She clutched at her heart… Oh, her little heart!

Awoo, awoo, awoo.

Such a handsome man, she really wanted to claim him as her own!

Her grip on Han Zuo’s arm tightened, her gaze toward him grew sweeter, her voice sticky with a coquettish tone, “Brother Zuo!”

“…” Han Zuo’s mouth twitched slightly.

This girl… was too familiar.

It was only their second meeting, yet the way this girl looked at him was like a wolf seeing meat… oh, no, like a bee seeing a flower… well, that didn’t seem quite right either.

In any case, she was just too enthusiastic.

Coming from a poor family background, romantic affairs and women had nothing to do with Han Zuo before he accomplished anything in his career.

His life was a cycle of studying, striving, then studying and striving some more.

Then, when he had finally made something of himself, Qin Wanyue came into his sight.

Because Qin Wanyue resembled the sister he had lost in childhood, he suspected Qin Wanyue might be his sister, which led him to pay her unusual attention.

The more attention he paid, the more he liked her.

Later, he constantly helped Qin Wanyue, and they established a romantic relationship.

Then, Qin Wanyue betrayed him, personally sending him to prison.

Aside from the sister he lost at a young age, Qin Wanyue was the only woman who had been close to him in his life.

Qin Wanyue’s personality was just like her name, gentle and demure.

This was his first encounter with a girl like Yian Jingxue.

Yian Jingxue’s personality was unrestrained like fire, passionate like the sun.

He was quite the opposite.

His personality was more reserved and introverted.

He couldn’t understand why some people could act as if they’ve known each other for half a lifetime after only one or two meetings.

Maybe it was because… they were pretending to be boyfriend and girlfriend?

After all, if a couple isn’t familiar with each other, their cover would easily be blown.

But this girl was perhaps too good, too convincing in her act.

He pondered this all the way until he was led into the living room.

Today the sun was shining brightly, and Senior Master Yian, sitting in a wheelchair with a blanket over his legs, was basking in the sunlight in front of the living room’s glass windows.
