In her dark eyes, her expression was surprisingly calm, but the corners of the eyes were very bright, as if they had tears in them.
Gu Yusheng frowned. After he had looked carefully for a while, he made certain that he was wrong. Then he said, “You… Are you in a bad mood?”
After Gu Yusheng asked her, Qin Zhi’ai almost let her tears fall.
“No…” She shook her head rapidly, then lowered it. She struggled to curve the corner of her lips up and asked, “Why did you ask that so suddenly?”
As she spoke, she raised her eyelids again, and to Gu Yusheng, the smile was even more brilliant. Her eyebrows were bent into beautiful crescent shapes. “I’m very happy today.”
Not giving him a chance to speak, she glanced at the green light that had just changed in front of them and then urged him in a soft voice, “It’s a green light, go quickly.”
Gu Yusheng didn’t speak again. Stepping on the accelerator, he slowly sped up.
He wasn’t a fool. Although she has just performed perfectly, he saw clearly the stiffness of the lips and the sadness between her brows when she laughed.
She’s really not happy, but why isn’t she happy?
She masked herself so thoroughly in front of me. Obviously, she doesn’t want me to know… Even if I ask her, she’ll only find more excuses to talk her way out of it.
Gu Yusheng pressed his lips together tightly. Through the rear view mirror, he saw a few shops that were open 24 hours a day on the opposite street. Suddenly, he came up with an idea and turned the car around, stopping at the side of the road.
“What’s wrong?” Qin Zhi’ai asked with a puzzled look.
Without speaking a word, Gu Yusheng undid the seat belt and took the lead to get out of the car, then went around the car to her side, opened the door, helped her undo the seatbelt, and signaled for her to get out.
Hesitating for a moment, Qin Zhi’ai got out of the car in total confusion.
Gu Yusheng closed the door and took a few steps to the shops where Qin Hao loved to work 24 hours a day. He stopped under a streetlamp and told Qin Zhi’ai to wait there. He entered the store alone.
Gu Yusheng quickly came back from the store with two pens in his hand. Standing in front of Qin Zhi’ai, he handed one of them to her, then took two red one hundred yuan bills from his wallet. He also handed one of these to Qin Zhi’ai.
Qin Zhi’ai was growing more and more confused at what Gu Yusheng was doing. She held the money in one hand and the pen in the other and asked, “What did you give me these for?”
Gu Yusheng didn’t answer Qin Zhi’ai’s question. Instead, he directly asked her, “Have you played such a game before?”
Qin Zhi’ai didn’t say anything, just waiting for Gu Yusheng’s next words.
Gu Yusheng seemed to be thinking of the game’s specific rules. After about half a minute, he said in an elegant and soothing way, “Write what you want to say on the money, then immediately spend it. Let this paper flow through the world and see if it will flow to the person who you thought of while you wrote that sentence.”
A beautiful and romantic game, but… After Qin Zhi’ai appreciated the game, she still blurted out the words of a killjoy. “Aren’t the chances almost impossible?”
“If you don’t try, how will you know?” After Gu Yusheng finished speaking, he turned his back to Qin Zhi’ai, put the money on the street lamp, and used his pen to write on it first.
After writing, he turned to look at Qin Zhi’ai and encouraged her, “You write, too.”
