Chapter 140 Because I love you, that's all

The engagement happened so suddenly that Tao Ruan couldn't react a little.

Is it because I cried that day?Tao Ruan looked at Gu Zhizhou and asked.

Gu Zhizhou smiled, took the diamond necklace with bright color and soft skin from the stylist, then lowered his head to help her lift the long hair on the back of her neck, put it on gently, and whispered: It's not because of this.

Tao Ruan blinked, her long thick eyelashes swept across Gu Zhizhou and touched her fingers on her cheek, and continued to ask: Why is that?

Gu Zhizhou held her delicate chin, bent down and dropped his lips, covering Tao Ruan's delicate lips.

Because I love you and want to marry you, that's all.

Tao Ruan's heartbeat was chaotic again. Even before that, Gu Zhizhou had already said countless love words to him, but at this moment, she was still moved by the sincere feelings in Gu Zhizhou's words.

I love you too, Azhou.

Gu Zhizhou refused to approach the stylist who wanted to sort out the hem of Tao Ruan's skirt. He squatted down and helped Tao Ruan prepare it. He stood up and held her hand.

I'm a little nervous.Tao Ruan's palms were slightly sweating.

Gu Zhizhou coaxed her warmly: Don’t be afraid, there are relatives and friends from both families outside, and no one will make things difficult for you. Besides, I’m there.

Tao Ruan held Gu Zhizhou's hand in both hands, and his anxiety relieved, but he was still nervous: But what should I do if I say the wrong thing later?Will it embarrass you?

Gu Zhizhou scraped off her nose and continued to coax: I am not afraid of being embarrassed, I like Ruo Ruo no matter what.

It's not a question you like or not Ah...

Then I will speak in another way. Ruanruan is so popular, no one will dislike you, so don’t be afraid.

Tao Ruan was still amused by him: Only you would feel this way.

After saying that, Tao Ruan took a deep breath, exhaled, inhaled, and then exhaled, and finally raised her head and smiled at Gu Zhizhou: But it is enough to have you think so.

Tao Ruan still walked out with Gu Zhizhou. Even though he was a little nervous just now, he was held by Gu Zhizhou's warm and powerful hands and absorbed the power from Gu Zhizhou, and the tension was not scary in an instant.

She appeared in front of everyone openly and dignifiedly, followed the prescribed process, received everyone's congratulations, and nothing went wrong.

Tao Ruan's father, stepmother and younger brother all came over. Except for his younger brother Tao Wenzhuo's enthusiasm for getting close to her, the other two people always felt a bit indescribable and distant to her while congratulating her.

But Tao Ruan doesn't care anymore.

She thanked her father and stepmother seriously, thanked them for their care for so many years, hugged them, and then held his younger brother Tao Wenzhuo's hand and took him to eat desserts and drinks.

Sister, Tao Wenzhuo, who is still a child, raised his head and asked Tao Ruan: Are you really going to get married?

Tao Ruan rubbed his head and said with a smile: Because I am not yet legally married, I am just engaged now, and it is not considered getting married yet.

Gu Xiao, who heard this, came over to hook her neck and threatened: Why don’t you forget it?Your marriage is settled, sooner or later, it is our family. Please accept your fate. Ruanruan. You are destined to be my sister-in-law in this life.

Gu Xiao had no malicious intentions, just a close joke, but Tao Wenzhuo couldn't hear Gu Xiao's tone and almost cried: Who are you, why are you so fierce to my sister?

Gu Xiao was amused, bent down to Tao Wenzhuo, and pointed at his nose: Am I fierce?Kid, you are a boy, how come you cry so easily?

It would be fine if Gu Xiao didn't say it. When Gu Xiao said this, Tao Wenzhuo even choked and said while choking: Don't bully my sister, my sister is a very good person.

Tao Ruan was so amazed that he had to teach Gu Xiao a lesson in front of Tao Wenzhuo, and then coaxed Tao Wenzhuo with Gu Xiao.

Ji Wanqiu saw the situation here and brought Ji Xia to join in the fun. After a while, Tao Ruan's stepmother came over and took Tao Wenzhuo away. Ji Wanqiu took Tao Ruan to chat with her friends. All of her words were closeness and love for this prospective daughter-in-law.

With Ji Wanqiu's care and care, Tao Ruan did not feel any discomfort even when facing social engagements. But occasionally when she looked away, she could see Ji Xia next to her drinking alone, as if she was struggling in her heart.

Tao Ruan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes also drooped.

Are you tired?Ji Wanqiu took care of her sideburns. If she was tired, she would go back to her room to rest, and she wouldn't have to stay with me all the time.

Tao Ruan smiled and shook her head, saying no, but Ji Wanqiu was indulgent and considerate to her. Seeing that she looked tired, she immediately called Ji Xia and asked Ji Xia to accompany her to the room to rest.

Tao Ruan happened to have something to say to Ji Xia, so he followed the situation and did not refuse.

The two went upstairs together and returned to the hotel room. Tao Ruan did not rest, but pulled Ji Xia to the window to see the scenery by the river below.

Summer and summer.Tao Ruan called her.

What's wrong?Ji Xia smiled a little reluctantly.

I should be asking you what's wrong. You seem a little absent-minded. Tao Ruan turned around, looked at her, and asked her: Are you having a conflict with your mixed-race boyfriend?

Ji Xia denied it.

That's because of me.Tao Ruan used a positive sentence, and Ji Xia could not refute it at all.

Soft, I...

Tao Ruan could see Ji Xia's struggle, so she pulled her aside and sat down, and said in a gentle voice: It's okay.

Ji Xia was a little overwhelmed: What?

Thinking about it now, with your personality, you took the initiative to come over to be friends with me, a primary school girl who just entered school, and she was so enthusiastic. It was indeed a bit incredible. In fact, someone asked you to do that, right?

You...you know?

I just figured it out. Azhou should not instruct you, so the person who asked you to do this is probably your aunt?

It could only be Ji Wanqiu.

Sorry... Ji Xia came over to hug her, her fingers trembled, her voice choked, soft, I'm really sorry.

Tao Ruan followed her back and said softly: It's okay.

But she said it was okay, but Ji Xia even more guilty: Sorry, Ruanruo, I'm sorry, you don't know how much I did to you, although you and Gu Zhizhou have achieved success now, yes, yes, I...

I know, I can probably guess that Tao Ruan looked at her, her eyes were still gentle and calm, but fortunately it was Gu Zhizhou, so no matter what happened, I could accept it.

Sorry... Ji Xia, who has always been strong, is already in tears at this moment.

……

It turns out that sometimes it’s not that difficult to say things. Ji Xia spoke out his long-standing depression and apologized to Tao Ruan, and finally let go of the nerve that had been tense for a long time.

When he finally went out, Ji Xia asked Tao Ruan, can we still be friends?

Tao Ruan went over and gave her a hug, and said to her: Azhou is your younger brother, I am your younger brother and sister Ah, this will never change.

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Zhizhou came over. Tao Ruan and Gu Zhizhou bid farewell to Ji Xia, and then closed the hotel door.

Did Ji Xia cry just now?Gu Zhizhou asked Tao Ruan.

Tao Ruan curled her lips: It's not a good thing you did.

Gu Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and said in confusion: Me?I haven't provoked her recently.

Tao Ruan looked at him, his eyebrows bent, and he tiptoed to give Gu Zhizhou a hug.

That doesn't matter.Tao Ruan said.

She could tell Ji Xia clearly because there was a struggle in Ji Xia's eyes. If she didn't tell her, this gap would always be between the two.

But Gu Zhizhou is different.

For her and Gu Zhizhou, some words do not need to be clearly stated, and their current state is their best way to get along.

Soft?Gu Zhizhou was calling her.

When Tao Ruan heard this, she held Gu Zhizhou's hand, led him to reach out to his skirt, and then said with a blushing face: I want it, husband.
