Book 4: Near Blood - Chapter 86: Well-Rounded (1/2)
“So the Gu Clan already knows about our relationshi+p and has silently given their approval?” Su Chen said as his head rested in Gu Qingluo’s lap
“That’s right!” Gu Qingluo giggled “You’re quite lucky We were able to resolve all the issues once the Beast Race attacked If the Lightning Snake had coht not have had an opportunity to show off”
“Oh, then I would’ve given up on everything and taken you far, far away I trust that the Gu Clan wouldn’t have had any spare energy to stop us at that point in tiluo hit him as she rolled her eyes, but she suddenly noticed that Su Chen see out and didn’t want to talk
“How come you don’t seem happy?” she asked
“Of course I am” Su Chen squeezed out a smile
How could he be happy?
The matter with Zhu Xianyao hadn’t been resolved yet
He had expended a ton of effort to settle matters on the Gu Clan’s side, but had yet to take care of the issue with Zhu Xianyao
Su Chen didn’t knoould happen if he were to bring up the matter with Zhu Xianyao now The dust hasn’t settled yet, so perhaps it’s best to wait, he thought to hi a bit selfish and unfair to Gu Qingluo, but he didn’t want to give up on either Gu Qingluo or Zhu Xianyao As such, this was his only course of action
Was this also called not giving up?
Dammit!
Su Chen cursed himself
Major issues aside, he was still a selfish person on the inside
He felt so conflicted
On one hand, he was a saint responsible for i the quality of tens of thousands of peoples’ lives On the other, he was a selfish person
But this was just human nature, wasn’t it?
This wasn’t really a conflict; it was just the coexistence and relationshi+p betweentens of thousands of civilians was aa hus for personal profit, on the other hand, was instinctive, a manifestation of a lifeform’s advanced development
Since the two of theainst one another
Oh, as the point of thinking about this right now?
There was no need to feel so gloomy with such a happy occasion at hand
He opened his eyes and glanced at Gu Qingluo “So in a few days you and I will officially be engaged?”
“What? Are you not happy about it?” Gu Qingluo asked
“No, I just want sohed
“What benefits?” Gu Qingluo asked foolishly
When she acted silly, she seeht Deluo understood and shot hiet the kiss he had been waiting for and felt a little disappointed However, he uncharacteristically didn’t pester her any further
This was all because thehis luo didn’t know this When she saw hiht for a ently
The kiss was as quick as lightning, and Su Chen didn’t even have tiluo blushed fiercely “You happy now?”
“Just touching a bit isn’t enough,” Su Chen said
