Chapter 26
Gu Xiao had never thought that in the next instant, she would be pulled into a warm embrace. His embrace was very, very tight, and the aura that belonged to Chu An surged towards her from all directions.
Chu An’s arms wrapped around her head and waist, and a numbing sensation spread over, causing Gu Xiao to involuntarily sink into this feeling. She too raised her arms to return the embrace.
“I thought you didn’t want me anymore…” Chu An murmured in grievance.
“How could that be? I have always loved you,” Gu Xiao consoled softly.
After embracing for a while, Chu An reluctantly let go of Gu Xiao and mumbled, “Xiaoxiao, I’m sorry. I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“Now that the misunderstanding has been resolved, it’s all right.” Gu Xiao comforted him.
“Xiaoxiao, I really hate that girl called Ji Yao. She keeps coming over, and I don’t want to stay with her.” Chu An began to complain.
“I hate her too. I have plans. Do you trust me?” Gu Xiao looked into Chu An’s eyes.
“Of course I trust Xiaoxiao!” Chu An took the clothes from Gu Xiao’s hands, and said, “I’ll help you wash them!”
“All right, let’s wash them together.”
The two of them exchanged a smile.
“Xiaoxiao, can you tell me what happened between you and Ji Yao? I want to know.” Chu An still had many questions in his mind.
“How should I put it? The me you know was my second life after my rebirth. My first life was here, and at that time, my everything was snatched away by Ji Yao.” As Gu Xiao washed the clothes, she continued, “If I tell you that the princess of the Ji Family was originally supposed to be me, would you believe me?”
“I believe you, I’ll believe whatever you say,” Chu An said firmly.
“The present me is still too weak, so it is still not the best time for revenge. I want to become stronger, and stand at a very high position, so I can snatch back all that they owe me, one by one.” Gu Xiao’s eyes were firm.
“I’ll accompany you. Whatever you do, I’ll accompany you.” Chu An looked at her, and said with bright eyes, “In my last life, I didn’t manage to accompany you to the end. No matter what happens in this life, I definitely won’t leave you alone!”
“It will take a very long time to wash these clothes, so don’t be so cheeky.” Gu Xiao’s face flushed red and her heart beat faster when she heard the confession from Chu An. She hurriedly stopped him.
Chu An gave an ‘en’, and the ice-cold expression on his face disappeared, replaced by a relaxed and comfortable expression. Anyone who had previously known Chu An, or even Chu An’s own parents, would be shocked upon seeing this.
So Chu An had such a cute and soft side? The two of them carefully washed all the clothes, and after placing them in the machine to dry, Gu Xiao and Chu An chatted and laughed as they walked back.
Ji Yao looked at the two of them, whose relationship had suddenly warmed up, and couldn’t help but feel a little confused. They had only gone to wash clothes, but why did she feel like there was now completely no barrier between the two of them?
Ji Yao knew that she wouldn’t be able to get Chu An, so she decided to just garner Gu Xiao’s disgust.
What Ji Yao thought was that Gu Xiao must like Chu An, but it was possible that Chu An was only helping Gu Xiaohu because it was refreshing. Previously, regarding the school forum, Ji Yao’s father had already told everyone to keep their mouths shut and delete their posts. Thus, she had to show on screen that her relationship with Chu An was not just a simple friendship, which would push Gu Xiao to the forefront of public opinion.
Ji Yao felt that Chu An couldn’t possibly like Gu Xiao. One of them was a bird in the sky, while the other was an underground?rat
. How could they possibly be together?
Thus, when Chu An walked into the room again, Ji Yao prepared a brightly smiling face and came out to meet him. “Chu An, you’ve returned. Thank you for…”
“Not at all. Thank you. Stay away from me, we’re not familiar with each other.” He fired off four consecutive rejections quickly.
Gu Xiao looked at Ji Yao, who was frozen in place, and almost laughed out loud.
Her Chu An really had double standards, didn’t he?
At first, Chu An’s expression was filled with happiness, but when Ji Yao came over, he immediately put on a dark expression. That expression was clearly one of disdain.
“Additionally, Ji Yao, I don’t like you, and I will never like you either. Don’t stick close to me all day, I fear that Gu Xiao will misunderstand.” As he walked past Ji Yao, Chu An left behind these words.
What did he mean? Ji Yao didn’t dare believe her ears. Was Chu An telling her that he was already a couple with Gu Xiao?
How could this be! How could this be! Ji Yao gritted her teeth so hard that they were close to shattering from the force, and looked at the sweet scene of their backs angrily.
On the other side, Chu An took Gu Xiao’s hand and walked to stand in front of Grandma Jin, telling her, “Grandma, this girl and I are actually a couple. I’m not familiar with that Ji Yao, so can you not force us to do these things together in the future?”
Grandma Jin frowned. It wasn’t that she couldn’t tell that Chu An didn’t want to stay with Ji Yao, but…
