Gu Lang curls up his mouth and his index finger quickly turns the key to the car. He is dissatisfied and says, “An Rong, I don’t mean to say something bad about uncle. Even I’m starting to feel sorry for my aunt. Every day she goes to work either by being pick up by her assistant or the driver of Gu family. It makes no difference whether she gets married or not.” “Your uncle is too busy. Besides, your aunt is going to the dinner party with him tonight. They have a good relationship. Don’t talk nonsense.” Although An Rong has a good temper, she is still in a bad mood when listening to other people’s slander on Gu Zechen. Gu Lang also wants to open his mouth and say something, but Su Ni intercepts Hu in time. “We’re going to be late for work. Let’s go.” “Be careful on the way.” An Rong hurries to remind. Gu Lang is careless and doesn’t care about An Rong’s mood. He waves at her and follows Su Ni. “I haven’t eaten any rice. I’m really hungry, auntie. Aren’t you moved?” As soon as he gets on the car, Gu Lang begins to be talkative. Su Ni, with her hands around her chest, looks ahead expressionlessly and says, “if you are really hungry, you can get out of the car and eat.”

“How can I do that? Of course, I have to send my aunt to the company first.” Gu Lang starts the engine in a serious way. As soon as Su Ni hears this, she cannot help teasing him and saying, “Why, it’s not that you have something to do with Su today?” However, it seems that he doesn’t wake up or his brain is slow and he doesn’t catch Su Ni’s irony at all. After thinking about it, he says seriously, “it’s really OK today. I’ve made an appointment with my friend. I’ll relax later.” The following conversation Su Ni has no more interest in, and then she closes her eyes to have a rest. “The scarf around your neck is very good, but it’s hot. Are you hot, Su Ni?” Gu Lang asks. “Not hot.” Su Ni replies simply and decisively. “I see it’s very hot. It’s very strange that you cover yourself tightly in summer.” Gu Lang mutters to himself. Su Ni is annoyed by what he says. He also pulls his scarf subconsciously and looks at Gu Lang discontentedly. “You’ve been here for a while, so why don’t you go home and honor your parents?” “They are all busy, so they have no time to talk to me.” Gu Lang does not understand Su Ni’s words again.

Su Ni’s fist is like hitting on cotton. It’s soft. Instead, she keeps one breath in her chest. “You should care less about me and your uncle in the future. Remember, we have a good relationship. Didn’t you see that how angry you made An Rong this morning?” Su Ni has no choice but to give Gu Lang a wake-up call, and the guy is getting more impolite in front of her. “Yes?” Gu Lang exclaims. After looking back, Gu Lang slaps his forehead heavily again and calls, “I’m really a little rude as you said.” Su Ni purses her lips and looks out of the window. “But I’m fighting for you.” Soon, Gu Lang changes his direction again. He looks pitifully at Su Ni’s side face and says, “You see, I am caring about you. Little uncle doesn’t come back home all night. You are so sad and lonely.” “It’s none of your business whether I feel bad or not.” Su Ni blurts out in a hurry. Gu Lang opens his mouth in amazement, and has no words for a while. Su Ni realizes her gaffe and overreacts. She strokes the hair on her shoulder in a restless way. She turns her face sideways and says again in a soft voice, “Now that I’m not sad at all. What are you upset about?”

“I just can’t stand it.” Gu Lang mumbles, looking a little lost, but no longer energetic. Su Ni sneaks a look at him and suddenly feels guilty. But it’s this kid who is pushing his luck. It suddenly gets quiet in the car. Su Ni becomes more and more upset. “Well, I know you care about me, but it’s about me and your uncle. Outsiders had better stay away. Do you understand?” Su Ni’s tone is hasty. For the first time, she explains this to a small fart kid. She is also very upset. “Oh.” Gu Lang drives the car and responds coldly. Su Ni looks at him. Although there is a difference in generation between them, he seems to be the same as her peers. Especially because he plays basketball all the year round, he looks more vigorous than average teenagers. “Well, are you still angry.” Su Ni pushes his arm. “I’m not angry but I don’t think it’s worth it for you.” Gu Lang’s eyes twinkle for a moment, but he still doesn’t look at Su Ni. “I still remember the first time when I saw you; you were smoking in front of the window. You did not look happy at all.” “So, Su Ni, you don’t need to pretend in front of me. Don’t pretend to be happy when you are not happy at all, which will make you sick.”

He turns his face sideways, looks at Su Ni affectionately, and says, “You always suppress me by seniority, but in fact, you are two or three years older than me. If you say that I am a child, you are not much better than the child.” Gu Lang’s hasty words make Su Ni so embarrassed that she doesn’t know how to answer. “All right.” Gu Lang talks to himself. “When I say that, you must think I’m meddling again. But in fact, you should treat me as an ordinary friend. If you feel unhappy, please let me know it. Although it may not be solved, at least you will suffer less. “Thank you, Gu Lang.” After Gu Lang finishes, Su Ni remains silent for a few seconds, and finally speaks. These words have never been spoken to her. Although she can’t show any emotion, her heart is still warm. Maybe it’s because she hasn’t felt the care so long that she cares so much about a young man’s words. Su Ni mocks herself. Gu Lang doesn’t look relaxed, but still serious, “it’s OK. In fact, I know very well that these words may not have any effect.” Su Ni looks embarrassed.

This young man, a moment ago, is stupid, but he is clever and astonishing. Su Ni doesn’t want to contradict him, but she tells him: “Gu Lang, some things are not so simple as you see on the surface. Your uncle treats me like this for his reasons, and the reason why I married him naturally is also justified in its own right.” Gu Lang bites his lips. “I know something about my uncle, but it’s not your fault. As for your reasons, I don’t think you will tell me. Maybe that’s why I don’t want to come back. Ah, it’s a very simple thing, but you make it so complicated.” Gu Lang sighs, then shakes his head helplessly, looking sophisticated. Su Ni can’t help but be amused by his appearance. “So, hurry to find a girlfriend and you won’t have so much leisure.” “It’s not that simple about feelings. Besides, such a complex thing is not suitable for me. It’s better to be happy by playing football.” After Gu Lang finishes, he takes a deep look at Su Ni, and then inadvertently there is some sadness flashing in his eyes. “Su Ni…” Gu Lang opens and shuts his mouth, saying nothing.
