Priceless Baby: 101 Bedside Stories Chapter 769

Chapter 769 - Who Is The Substitute 2

Lin Xiaojuan felt warm in her heart. Ever since the incident with the douchebag, she had felt very negative about relationships. She actually did not feel very secure being in a relationship with Gu Xie. This was not Gu Xie’s problem.

She kept feeling that something was missing.

As to what was missing, she was not sure of it.

Now that she heard the word ‘substitute,’ it seemed to have cleared up her doubts. She had gotten an explanation for her suspicion. Why was the feeling so deep for no apparent reason? Why did he have a crush on her for five years when they had never known each other? It turned out that she was just a substitute.

Damn, she was utterly disgusted.

She would rather be in a relationship which her feelings gradually faded away. And she had tried hard to salvage it, but there was no ending. Even if they broke up and it was an ugly breakup, she could still accept it. Even though it turned out this way, she was considered to have loved before. However, it was very hard for her to accept that it was a scam from the beginning.

“Xiaojuan, what’s wrong?”

The man was wearing casual clothes that suited him. They were fitting and elegant. The watch on his wrist was lowkey and luxurious. He had an air of nobility, and his face was handsome. Any pose of his could be used as the front cover of a magazine. For no reason, he exuded some sexiness.

He was indeed the nation’s male god.

He was ranked first and was in the lead as the man whom the whole nation wanted to sleep with the most.

“Have you known He Xiaoai since young?”

“Considered so. My father and Mayor He have always been in contact. I am much older than her and have always treated her as a little sister. Subsequently, I have been busy acting and rarely go home. I don’t contact her often,” Gu Xie said calmly. He Xiaoai and he actually did not have any friendship. Ghost City had been growing stronger, and their voice was getting greater especially these last few years. Mayor He dared not to be rash in front of Fourth Brother and not to mention him in front of Second Old Master Gu.

Gradually, their friendship also changed.

They did not keep in touch even during holidays every year.

“Does she also know about Ghost City?”

“She doesn’t know,” Gu Xie said. “Mayor He protected her very well. As for the Gu Family members, He Xiaoai has only seen me. There was once when my father was having a chat with Mayor He, and they talked about He Xiaoai, who liked to sing, dance, and act. My father said that his son was in the entertainment industry, and he could introduce me to her. Hence, our paths crossed.”

“Thereafter, she fell in love with you at first sight?”

“… ” Gu Xie saw that she did not look like she was joking. His heart skipped a beat, and he had a bad premonition. He said, “He Xiaoai and I are rarely in contact and are never ambiguous. I have rejected her advances long ago and have also clarified with her. Hence, you cannot judge me as guilty.”

“I didn’t.”

“Then why are you keeping a straight face?”

At that moment, Lin Xiaojuan did not know where to start asking from. To her, Gu Xie was too out of her reach, unattainable, and too mysterious. There were many matters which she dared not ask. She even did everything to let herself fully enjoy this relationship. If Gu Xie found her boring and uninteresting one day and wanted to break up, she also had to leave decently.

But humans… were always too greedy.

Did she… really fall in love with Gu Xie?

Lin Xiaojuan felt panicky. She had always hidden her heart very well. Although she agreed to Gu Xie’s courtship, in actual fact, she did not put in 100 percent of her feelings. Gu Xie also knew it all along, but he was very patient.

“Gu Xie, I… ” She pursed her lips nervously. She really had too little experience in relationships. She was so anxious that she wanted to cry. If she asked, would her relationship with Gu Xie end? If the truth was too hurtful and she could not accept it, what could she do?

She also did not want to end it. She was greedy.

If one was greedy in a relationship, he or she would get into real trouble.

But if she did not ask, it was like a prick that was always stuck in her throat.
