Chapter 267: Chapter 130: The Night Road Home at Eighteen_2

Wang, with his hands clasped behind his back, smiled at Su Huai while clenching his fists.

As soon as the two kids left, Professor Cheng’s face turned stern, and he slapped him across the face, "You old fool, causing trouble again! I’m telling you, if you scare Su Huai or provoke his pride, I’ll make sure you spend your remaining twenty years in a wheelchair!"

Wang shrunk his neck under the blow and defended himself with a glare, "Where did I cause trouble? And what do you mean by ’again’?"

"Hey, do you think I’m blind or deaf?!"

Professor Cheng lost all semblance of kindness, with a face so dark it looked ready to frost over.

"The first time my son-in-law came over, you acted with that same gloomy and odious attitude. Now you’ve actually moved on to scaring kids with your dirty money...

Let me tell you, Wang Yuqing, Yueyue is my life. If she likes Su Huai, Su Huai will be ahead of you. If she likes Mimi, Mimi will be ahead of you. You’d better stop lording over others like an elder. I wouldn’t be half sorry to see you dead!"

"You... are unreasonable!"

Wang, with his head white-hot, waved his hand dismissively and scurried off to shake in the study.

No matter how tough he acted, it didn’t affect his heart.

Seeing the messy tea box on the desk, the professor was struck with sorrow, sighing deeply, "Such a sin!"

...

Gu Jiuyue accompanied Su Huai downstairs and then walked silently with him a little further.

Su Huai urged her, "It’s cold at night. You should go back; I’m not going to get lost..."

"I know."

She spoke calmly, "I just wanted to talk to you a little more."

"Huh?" Su Huai was puzzled, "Talk about what? Why didn’t you say anything just now?"

"I didn’t want to talk about my feelings in front of them."

Su Huai became more interested, "Why not?"

"They... are too utilitarian. Even though it’s for my good, I feel it’s not fair to you."

Su Huai couldn’t help but laugh, "Why would I want that kind of fairness? Besides, it’s quite normal. The love of parents is universal, I can totally understand."

"It’s not the same."

Gu Jiuyue shook her head, falling silent for a full five seconds before whispering, "My grandfather, my maternal grandfather, my father, all of them treat me like a treasure, mistrusting any boy. They don’t even trust each other.

You...

should not have any extra expectations of me. The likelihood is extremely low."

Wow, so straightforward?

And this girl really knew what was in her heart, intelligent and astute to the utmost degree.

Su Huai found it amusing and teased her, "Oh, you sensed that I have extra expectations of you?"

Gu Jiuyue shook her head honestly, "Not yet, but someday there will be."

"Ha ha!"

"Don’t laugh."

Gu Jiuyue looked up seriously at the young man, "I’m not saying I’m that great, I just feel that I might come to like you. If I like you for a long time and deeply, I will inevitably tell you. By then, will you be able to control yourself?"

Her way of thinking was absolutely unique, leaving Su Huai completely astonished.

Honesty is a killer move indeed, and looking into her clear eyes, Su Huai found he couldn’t utter the word "Yes."

Damn, it’s overwhelming...

Su Huai sighed and deftly changed the subject.

"So why do you think the chance is so low? Neither of us lacks courage."

"This is not just about courage."

Gu Jiuyue shook her head calmly, showing no emotion that the conversation was about feelings.

"As friends, we face no pressure, but if we wanted to date with marriage in mind, the problems would be too numerous."

"Like what?"

Su Huai sounded like a madman, seriously discussing absurd matters with another madman.

The second madman laid out her logic clearly.

"Like having to face pressure from two stubborn old men and a father completely devoted to his daughter. They would use various means to strike at your self-esteem and confidence, for a very long time.

Meanwhile, I would have to face pressure from your parents too. I can’t have children naturally, only through IVF and surrogacy, and even then, my genes might not produce a healthy baby. So, do we even want children?

Also, I don’t know how long I will live, and if I might leave you too soon... These are things I can’t hide from anyone, your parents surely wouldn’t be happy.

Then there’s the prenuptial agreement you’d probably have to sign before we got married. My dad wouldn’t let you inherit his wealth, and it’s quite possible I already have a brother or sister...

Anyway, I must be the least marriage-worthy woman in the world.

I won’t live long, can’t give birth, must endure attacks from elders with no return, the more committed, the more painful, love too deep causing unbearable pain, love too shallow with no need for the trouble, isn’t that especially negative value?"

Gu Jiuyue’s 60 Favorability Rating manifested as her heart-to-heart empathy.

Su Huai was truly, completely, uncontrollably shaken.

"How can you think this way?!"

"That’s how I should think."

Gu Jiuyue suddenly flashed a smile, her white teeth casting a cold, desolate light in the moonlight.

"If I don’t think this through in advance, who will do it for me? Rushing into a sweet love affair only to end up hurting ourselves and others... there’s no need."

Su Huai finally understood why she chose to close herself off... This girl was crazy.

Normal young girls would choose to bloom even if they only had 10 seconds left. Dying in full bloom is the greatest respect for life.

But she was unwilling to do so.

By foreseeing all the pain and trouble, she would rather wither quietly.

She was willing to be friends with Su Huai but only that, nothing more.
