Chapter 1382 - Youre Mine Even If Youre Dead (1/2)

After being put on the drip, Gu Junling’s fever began to fade and his face looked extremely pale and haggard, perhaps because of the alcohol. Even though he was already asleep, his forehead was still creased into a frown full of agony and vulnerability.

In the eyes of Zhou Tianyu, Gu Junling was mature, reliable, reserved and charming, though he was not as handsome as Han Mofeng, Gu Junling, and Xu Zhenyu. He had a unique charm that would make girls fall for him and he was exactly the type of man that young girls fancied. It was a pity that he didn’t become a celebrity.

Zhou Tianyu and Gu Junling were truly childhood sweethearts who had grown up together. She often complained about the fact that he was popular with girls. Later on, he began pestering her every day and was practically at her beck and call with no complaints.

However, she only treated him like a brother and a best friend.

The first time that Gu Junling confessed his feelings for her was at one of their clique gatherings. Due to the fact that she had drunk too much alcohol out of joy, she kissed Gu Junling in a drunken stupor and even slept with him.

As soon as she woke up the next morning, Gu Junling kissed her again and even made her take responsibility for her actions. Then, she was extremely bewildered and kicked Gu Junling off the bed in a moment of anxiousness. However, she would forever remember how her heart raced when Gu Junling kissed her with his cold and thick lips.

She reckoned that she must have fallen for Gu Junling.

She was still very troubled about the sudden change in his behavior.

She was even more distraught after finding out that Gu Junling had fancied her for several years.

However, she quite liked the feeling of it.

She wanted to accept Gu Junling and was going to do so if she didn’t overhear her parents’ conversation.

Back then, she was flabbergasted as she listened to her mother weep miserably while her father comforted the latter. It turned out the Zhou Family was not as glorious or glamorous as they seemed to be in the first place. The Zhou Family had become tainted ever since her mother married her father. There was actually a dark side behind closed doors.

Her mother was the one who had implicated the entire Zhou Family.

She suppressed her urge to question her parents and instead hid the matter deep beneath her heart while carefully trying to investigate the truth behind the matter. Later on, she found out about the Korean-Chinese Alliance, as well as the reason for her grandmother’s early death. She also discovered why her uncle became mentally unsound and got sent to the nursing home. It was all because of the Korean-Chinese Alliance.

After finding out everything, she felt extremely disappointed. She was extremely afraid that she might implicate Gu Junling and the entire Gu Family. Hence, he began to avoid him. However, she could not bring herself to reject Gu Junling because she understood him too well and knew that he wouldn’t give up on her easily.

She only felt terrified when Gu Junling told her that he wanted to marry her and create a beautiful future for her.

Hence, her family agreed to let her go overseas.

She wanted to leave everything behind, but she didn’t expect Gu Junling to find out. She had truly hurt him harshly.

She still remembered what Wen Xinya said to her about Gu Junling.

“Over my dead body!”

She had no idea what Gu Junling was thinking when he said those words, but she knew that Gu Junling was serious about it and would definitely stick to his word.

Zhou Tianyu gently caressed Gu Junling’s pale face and exclaimed sobbingly, “Why are you so silly!?!”

No one was sillier than Gu Junling.

Gu Junling, who was sleeping uneasily, suddenly grabbed Zhou Tianyu’s hand tightly and murmured incoherently, “Tianyu, Tianyu… don’t leave, don’t leave me…”

Zhou Tianyu could no longer hold her tears back any longer. She wept and rebuked. “Silly! Gu Junling, you’re the greatest fool in this world.”
