Chapter 873: Chapter 873: Return to Qingning City (1)

"Stop! Stop! Tingting, Tingting, calm down, calm down. I know you’re, uh... flexible, and all that. Just take it easy, have some water." An Yiqing hurriedly picked up Gu Tingting’s coffee and thrust it into her hands without explanation, watching her down it in one gulp.

"Ah, Qingqing, what should I do... I’ve never been in love before, nor have I ever liked any man, Big Brother An is the first, sob sob..." Gu Tingting downed the coffee in one gulp, her head drooping in defeat like a beaten hen as she laid it on the table, "I feel like my life is in darkness, if I can’t win over Big Brother An, I have a premonition that I will definitely lose happiness..."

Seeing Gu Tingting so disheartened, An Yiqing felt a twinge of pity. The three of them had known each other for almost a year and had lived intimately under the same roof for a few months. An Yiqing had always been very fond of the lively and adorable Tingting, truly treating her like a younger sister and protecting her as such. Now, seeing Tingting normally so sharp-witted lose her confidence, An Yiqing felt it necessary to properly correct Tingting’s thinking.

"Tingting, lift your head and listen to me."

An Yiqing reached out, lifted Gu Tingting’s head from the table, and looked sternly into her watery eyes.

"Tingting, the reason why so many people like you is because you are Gu Tingting herself, not the shadow of anyone else."

An Yiqing paused, then continued, "As a sister, I am glad that you like my Big Brother so much. But as your best friend, I don’t want you to forget yourself in the process of loving someone. Tingting, you need to understand that love should be mutual, deserving of admiration and respect. A relationship where you lose yourself will not last."

"Right, Gu Tingting, look at how you’re usually like a ’Little Hot Pepper’, how come you completely wilt when it comes to this kind of thing? The Gu Tingting we know is always sharp-tongued, like a proud little rooster. Tingting, look at how Third Brother and Xiao Qing interact with each other, then you’d know what an ideal relationship really looks like," Ruan Xue gently patted Gu Tingting’s shoulder, speaking softly for once.

Gu Tingting thoughtfully lowered her gaze, with Ruan Xue and An Yiqing’s words echoing in her ears. She remembered the warmth and mutual care when An Yiqing and Gu Yelin were together, and she slowly began to understand something.

"It’s like I understand, but then again don’t understand anything," Gu Tingting shook her head, pensive, "I’m so different from Big Brother An, I’m afraid he won’t like me and will just see me as a sister."

With that, An Yiqing understood. An Zhihang and Gu Yelin were the same age, both twenty-eight this year. Gu Tingting, being a year younger than Yiqing, was only nineteen. There were nine years between them – supposedly each three years is a generation gap, meaning there were three whole generation gaps between Tingting and Zhihang.

An Yiqing didn’t say much, just gave a long sigh, "Well, there’s an eight-year difference between me and Ah Lin..."

Eight years? Eight years! Right! There’s an eight-year gap between Third Brother and Xiao Qing too!

Gu Tingting’s eyes suddenly brightened, then she lowered her head again.

"Qingqing, you and Third Brother are both eccentrics, old beyond your years. I’ve always been like a kid, how can I compare to you two? What... what kind of type does Big Brother An like? Is it the glamorous kind, or the pure kind? Or maybe the sexy type? Do you think I should change a bit?"

Watching Gu Tingting, who had already taken out a mirror and started making gestures, An Yiqing helplessly touched her forehead, "Tingting, you’re wasting your effort. I tell you, my Big Brother is only interested in work, as far as I know, he hasn’t had a single woman by his side, and even the animals are all males..."
