Chapter 272: Chapter 132: The Ceiling of the Artistic Young Woman

Gu Jiuyue finally saw her social media feed.

She posted rarely because every time it was too lively, or even noisy.

But today, she really wanted to express her feelings, and she was quite interested in everyone’s replies.

When she opened it after a while, as expected, the first was a high-intensity comment from grandma.

Cheng LiHua: [The moon is indeed beautiful tonight, but my baby’s fingers are even more beautiful!]

Hehe!

Gu Jiuyue chuckled, shaking her head, feeling it was no surprise.

Grandma could always find something to praise, seemingly loving to the extreme but actually very cautious.

She would never touch her real thoughts, just like her role in the family—the one who maintained appearances.

Grandma’s love was genuine and profound, but what was the use?

It was nothing but glossing things over.

Gu Jiuyue’s gaze shifted downward to the second post.

From her aunt.

[Baby, every person in the family loves you more than themselves, you are the continuation of our lives as sisters and our whole youth, seeing you gives me both youth and the feelings of youth]

Gu Jiuyue’s eyelashes fluttered slightly, she opened the reply, hesitated for a moment, and then silently closed it.

Wanted to reply but didn’t know how.

Forget it, it’s meaningless.

The third comment came from high school classmate Chen Ke from the previous student council president of Jinling Foreign Language School’s international department, who has now gone far away to Americana.

Chen Ke: [Goddess! Hands that could pluck stars and moons, when will you elope with me?]

Followed by a comment originating from the same source—

Chen Ke: [The only thing we can’t take with us is our youth itself... From the second class of the first year to the second class of the third year, my youth stayed at the moment of departure]

Chen Ke and his twin sister were a pair of dragon and phoenix twins; the sister was impressive, and the brother was not inferior, belonging to the most standard elites among the wealthy second generations.

Fluent in English from a young age, with a wide range of hobbies, the sister excelled in classical dance, painting, piano, violin, equestrianism, skiing, and various other arts and sports, currently studying at the Marshall School of Business at the University of Southern California.

The brother had even better academic achievements and was also a sports enthusiast, with proficiency in various ball games, holding the top place in tennis within the school, seemingly attending the film school at the University of Southern California.

Both siblings had a liking for Gu Jiuyue.

Gu found this kind of affection tiresome, but upon reading Chen Ke’s reply, she couldn’t help but think of Su Huai.

Doesn’t Chen Ke resemble Su Huai a bit?

In high school, Chen Ke just happened to also be the class representative of Class 2, the boy she interacted with most.

And he was the athletic type, returning to the classroom on every summer afternoon with a body drenched in sweat and wet hair freshly washed, full of sunshine and energy, eliciting suppressed and excited gasps from certain girls.

What’s more, he never flirted with those girls, only deeply devoted to her alone.

For instance, in this social media post, Gu Jiuyue noticed at a glance what he actually wanted to express was, "My youth stayed at the moment you left."

In comparison, does it seem like he’s better in every aspect?

But then, why do I feel so differently about him and Su Huai?

Gu Jiuyue couldn’t find an answer for a moment and subconsciously continued to read through the comments.

Then, in the next instant, she suddenly understood why.

Su Huai: [Wish to buy sweet-scented osmanthus with wine in hand, yet it shall never be like the days of our youth. The poem is good, yet recited too soon, amend it, amend it!]

Gu Jiuyue’s eyes sharpened, and then her lips involuntarily curved up as she read it again and again.

Such an interesting response!

And... are you the worm in my belly?

When Gu Jiuyue first thought of the caption for the photo, many fitting lines flashed through her mind.

There was "Nothing in this world not parted by time, rouge fades from the mirror, flowers fall from the trees."

There was "Time doesn’t favor me, swift as a team of horses, come without going back, hard to get easy to lose."

And there was this "Wish to buy sweet-scented osmanthus with wine in hand, yet it shall never be, as in the days of our youth."

However, "Nothing in this world..." was too blunt, "hard to get easy to lose" wasn’t quite right, "yet it shall never be, as in the days of our youth" bore youthful indignation suitable for boys.

So she had repurposed Hemingway’s line, with a heart approaching twilight, to express a young girl’s regret about youth.

This sentiment was triggered by discussing love with Su Huai, but it wasn’t just due to love, so subtle she herself couldn’t be certain.

Gu Jiuyue had not expected anyone to fully understand, much less offer comfort.

But Su Huai did.

Not only did he completely get her mood, but he also conveyed his comfort through this poem, brightening Gu Jiuyue’s mood instantaneously.

Amend it, amend it!

Not only was it a play on words, but with that repeated word plus an exclamation mark, as she savored the text, it felt as if she saw him smiling at her.

Gu Jiuyue envisioned a hearty laughter, a little figure shaking his head before her, a youthful face, a carefree demeanor, saying this isn’t good, this isn’t good.

She easily accepted Su Huai’s admonition, yes, this isn’t good.

Next time don’t post such a social media update again, other than worrying family, offering suitors an opportunity to show fondness, what’s the point?

The one who understands me can’t be sought after.

But fortunately, he’s already here.

Gu Jiuyue tossed aside her phone, lying on the bed gazing up at the ceiling, squinting and thinking for a while, finally understanding the difference between Chen Ke and Su Huai was.

At first glance they were the same type of boys, both brimming with vitality, but that was not the case.
