My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty
Chapter 148: Have They Registered Their Marriage?

Chapter 148: Chapter 148: Have They Registered Their Marriage?

Tang Jianjun cupped his ear: "Are you crazy? Isn’t her dating a good thing?"

Tang Jianbing: ...

It seemed to be the case.

Unaware of what her brothers were thinking here, Tang Chuxia strolled out, found a small stone, and went to the Gu Family’s house. The main gate of the Gu Family wasn’t closed, but she didn’t go through it; instead, she took another direction and entered through the back door.

With the small stone in her hand, she reached under Beihuai’s window and flicked it with her fingertip.

Soon, the window was opened from inside and Tang Chuxia’s head popped up from below.

"Surprise or not?"

She rested her hands on the windowsill, smiling cheerfully at Gu Beihuai.

Gu Beihuai: ...

He reached out to close the window, but Tang Chuxia clapped her hands, steadied the sill, and lightly jumped right into the room.

She also shut the window behind her as it was quite cold.

Dusting her hands, she walked up to Gu Beihuai with her hands behind her back: "Didn’t you say you’d come to see me as soon as you got back?"

Gu Beihuai poured her a glass of water.

Tang Chuxia didn’t refuse and sat beside the stove, holding the cup with both hands.

"I haven’t had the chance yet!"

Gu Beihuai was not lying; he was telling the truth.

"Then, have you not eaten?" Tang Chuxia looked around; there was no food in the room, which made her pout.

Gu Nanzhi’s room was full of snacks, so why was Gu Beihuai’s room like this?

Gu Beihuai knew Tang Chuxia too well and didn’t indulge her.

The two sat without speaking, just looking at each other.

Tang Chuxia hated this kind of silence and grinned as she spoke first, "Fancy me?"

It would have been better if she hadn’t spoken; as soon as she did, Gu Beihuai became irritated.

He shifted his gaze away, "You’ve spent all your money!" He was still hung up on that matter and reported directly.

Tang Chuxia nodded, her eyes falling on his hands.

There were several small marks on them.

She grabbed Gu Beihuai’s hand and pulled it toward her.

"What happened?"

Gu Beihuai pulled his hand back, but seeing Tang Chuxia’s disapproving look, he paused and pointed to the cuts on his hand: "I scraped it while moving something, not a big deal!"

Those small cuts obviously looked serious, clearly they were bad scrapes and had become somewhat whitish for not being treated immediately.

Tang Chuxia rolled her eyes at him; she knew where the first aid kit was in the room and took it out. Opening it, she found iodine and cotton.

Gu Beihuai blankly watched as Tang Chuxia carefully removed the bits of gravel from his palm.

Her actions were serious and gentle, giving Gu Beihuai a surreal feeling.

He looked down at his palm and then at Tang Chuxia, his heart uncontrollably beginning to race, fortunately not lasting long.

When he saw his fingers bandaged into a bow knot, he couldn’t help but feel exasperated.

"Pretty, right?" Tang Chuxia playfully sought approval, but upon facing Gu Beihuai’s stern look, she scoffed, "What? You’re not satisfied?"

Gu Beihuai shook his head, realizing he was being overly sensitive.

"Thank you!"

He put his hand behind his back, "Do you want to see the list? Where did I spend the money?"

He handed her a notebook, which Tang Chuxia opened and upon reading said, "Okay!"

The content was simple, only covering collected items like clothes and food, and not much money was spent on these things.

"Is it enough?" Tang Chuxia asked doubtfully. Gu Beihuai shook his head: "The situation is more serious than we thought. The government is also helping, but there are always some details that aren’t handled well!"

"There’s no choice," Tang Chuxia put the list back on the table.

"Are you out of money?"

Gu Beihuai felt a bit awkward. How was he supposed to respond to that?

His recent trip to the disaster area had nearly drained his finances. If it weren’t for some savings, he guessed he would be really struggling by now.

Gu Beihuai didn’t speak, but Tang Chuxia could guess the answer.

Money is a good thing.

Thinking again about Zheng Duoqing’s proposal, making money was still necessary.

The university entrance exam wasn’t urgent. The tests at this time weren’t that intense, not much of a problem for her, but earning money did need a solid plan.

"Are you considered retired now?"

Suddenly, something crossed Tang Chuxia’s mind, and she looked at Gu Beihuai with burning eyes.

Gu Beihuai hesitated for a moment, then nodded.

Actually, his status was a bit special. His work was classified because, for special reasons, many times he couldn’t carry out tasks under the identity of a soldier, and at this time, he was indeed a civilian.

As for whether he wanted to resume, that would be up to him to decide.

These issues, he didn’t need to explain clearly to Tang Chuxia, and it seemed that she also didn’t need them. She was just confirming whether he was a soldier or not.

"That’s good. I think Wu Haipeng and Qin Zhan should be in the same boat, right? You guys are short on cash, aren’t you?"

She was almost clinging to Gu Beihuai, her eyes alight, making him feel somewhat uncomfortable.

"What do you want to say?" He turned his head, luckily controlling his expression well, not making it too exaggerated.

Tang Chuxia chuckled, "Of course, it’s about making money! Look, the New Year is almost here, doesn’t everyone need to prepare some new year goods and such?"

"Speculating and profiteering are not okay!"

Gu BeiHuai seriously pointed it out.

Tang Chuxia’s smile faded, her face becoming serious, "What are you saying? Have you carefully studied the policies, read the Document Number One, analyzed what the country is up to now?"

Tang Chuxia’s finger nearly jabbed into Gu Beihuai’s chest.

"Is reform and opening up a light matter? Even our top leaders have proposed focusing on economic development—do you understand economic development?"

Gu Beihuai, typically confident, was actually a bit lost.

He grasped Tang Chuxia’s wrist and pinned it behind her back.

"Speak properly, no hitting or kicking!"

His warning was stern, but it elicited a snort from Tang Chuxia, "I’m not hitting or kicking, I’m using my mouth!"

As she spoke, she clicked her teeth together twice.

Proving she was not speaking nonsense.

But Gu BeiHuai then pinched her mouth, "Speak with your words, not your teeth! Don’t go breaking your teeth trying to make a point!"

Tang Chuxia...

She seriously wondered if this guy had a screw loose.

What if she suddenly didn’t want to flirt anymore?

Angrily, she swatted his fingers away, took a step back, her eyes carrying a hint of dullness.

She was about to climb out the window, but Gu Beihuai grabbed her by the shoulders and held her in place.

"What are you doing?" Tang Chuxia’s tone was sharp.

Gu Beihuai didn’t know why he instinctively stopped her on seeing her indifferent gaze, as if he would regret not stopping.

"There’s a door!"

He pointed to the door, yet did not let go of her.

Tang Chuxia forcefully shook off his hand and walked towards the door, but just as she reached it, the door was violently kicked open from the outside, causing her to step back, startled.

And she fell right into Gu Beihuai’s arms.

"Wow, that takes guts! Are you guys married yet?"
