It would have been better had he just kept his mouth shut. His words made Huo Sishen looked even gloomier.
That idiot Gu Shishi had spent days on making him a homemade gift.
And he was only going to give her the same thing that he had gifted a girl back when he was in junior high school?
And how many girlfriends has he had since then?
Had he not asked, he couldn’t imagine how much worse it’d be for her!
Huo Sishen’s lips tightened.
“I seem to recall that you two broke up after just 3 months.
“Then you started dating another girl the next semester.”
Not only did Qin Ruhai not feel shameful after he had hurt that. Quite the contrary, he looked happy?
“Eh? You still remember my heroic feats.
“Speaking of that new girlfriend of mine, you have more to learn from that one. She said her parents worked very hard so she wanted to focus on school work. So I gave her a set of problem sets after I have professed my love for her.”
He was obviously very proud of himself.
“Then, I had the chance of work on the problems with her every day. And those were our dates… OH!”
He was half way through his sentence when a tea cup was flung at him.
Huo Sishen couldn’t bear listening to any more of this.
“You need to clean up your acts!”
He had always been a player.
Qin Ruhai had yet to realize that there was a huge misunderstanding.
“For sure. I won’t do that anymore.
“What I am trying to say is, in order to find the right gift for Miss Gu, more observation is necessary.
“Women are different than men. Even if you are not a tender person by nature, you should still make yourself seem that way. That’s how you’d move her!”
Make yourself seem that way.
Huo Sishen’s brows furrowed.
He was going to deceive her?
His black eyes narrowed. He thought about it long and hard and all he could think of was Gu Shishi’s Foolish, White, and Sweet face.
Straightforward, foolish, and stupid.
Even if she was deceived, she’d probably still fall hard for Qin Ruhai and cook for him and paint for him appreciatively!
After all, she was happy like she had won the lottery that one time that she received a stuffed toy as a gift. And there were admiration and appreciation in her eyes… and she was docile like a kitty waiting to be fed…
As he was thinking, he unbuttoned his shirt.
He felt an odd irritation.
Looking at Qin Ruhai in front of him, everything seemed wrong about him!
He was a player!
Lacked sincerity!
Fake!
All of those were written clearly across his face that was asking to be punched!
Huo Sishen narrowed his black eyes again.
But…
What right did he have to stop her from falling for someone else? To date someone else?
He could use the fact that they were engaged as an excuse… but that would just be delaying the inevitable.
He couldn’t marry her.
He’d just be wasting her youth.
If that was the case, perhaps he should let her gain more experience?
Even if they were to break up unpleasantly, at least she’d still be under his watch and she wouldn’t end up like Qin Ruhai’s sister, having both her heart and her body deceived.
All in all, Qin Ruhai grew up with him.
If he…
“Give it more thought,” said Huo Sishen in a deep voice while frowning.
“Be sincere.”
Qin Ruhai nodded madly and still had no idea that he had just become the “date”.
He was just happy that not only was there melon to eat, he could even be involved by giving advices.
“That goes without saying!”
“You must have her back before 10 PM.”
Huo Sishen looked at Qin Ruhai coldly.
Qin Ruhai was a little surprised. “Boss, are you that conservative?”
The two of them live under the same roof and could cuddle and be intimate every day.
Why did he need to have a curfew for a date on Thanksgiving day?
Seeing the look of death, Qin Ruhai resorted to nodding.
“That works. Keep on yakking after getting back.”
Just a matter of change of scenery.
Huo Sishen, “……!”
The words were suffocating.
“I didn’t say you can come. You are not allowed into the front door.”
Qin Ruhai nodded again. Of course, he would be on a date of his own.
Why would he want to be here to be the third wheel?
All he needed was second-hand information from Siyi for melon-eating purposes.
“Don’t worry. I won’t barge in. Don’t you know me after all these years? When have I ever invited myself over when you said I can’t come over?
“Speaking of, I don’t mind tell you this. I have prepared the perfect tool for my date.”
Huo Sishen’s brows furrowed deeply.
“It’s a secret. I won’t say anything else.”
Qin Ruhai laughed devilishly.
“You are still an infant when it comes to dating. Everything in due time.”
The cold air froze inside the side and almost turning into real ice cubes.
Qin Ruhai felt a chill behind his neck.
He had no idea what he had said wrong but best to sneak away right about now.
