Chapter 43 & 44.1

Chapter 43

It’s because I have someone I like. 

Jiang Tan came to a realisation when he said this.

She smiled at Gu Yanshu. “Alright, I understand.”

“Mm, alright.”

Gu Yanshu nodded at her slightly, then entered the lounge.

The moment the door closed, everything was settled tacitly.

The world of adults was generally like this. There was always a layer of sandpaper that was so thin that it was almost transparent, but it was always better than secrets having nowhere to hide, allowing them to maintain their last shred of dignity. Then, they would polish those inappropriate thoughts and whitewash the world with peace.

Jiang Tan sighed silently and rubbed her pink head.

QingShu was fake, but JueJueShu was absolutely real. This was probably because a cheap name was easier to keep alive.  

In that case, should she just take advantage of the situation and make up for her mistake?

Chapter 44.1

In winter, the fruit juice sold in the cinema were all hot.

Because there was a heater in the room and the work clothes were very thin, when the fruit juice splashed on Gu Yanshu, it wasn’t boiling hot, but it was still a little scorching. Gu Yanshu only remained calm because he didn’t want to cause trouble for the production team, and at the same time, he didn’t want Jiang Tan to feel even more guilty.

In reality, his skin was much thinner than most people, and it was also more sensitive. It would turn red when touched, and so, he had always been most afraid of pain. Fortunately, he was always best at enduring pain.

However, when he took off his work clothes, the rough fibers brushed against his burned skin, causing a sharp pain. At that moment, he couldn’t help frowning slightly.

He looked at the mirror and saw that his back was covered in large red patches. Fortunately, he didn’t suffer from any burns, so he should be fine in a while. The others shouldn’t be able to tell.

As he was thinking, the phone on the chair lit up.

Gu Yanshu glanced at it casually. When he saw the number clearly, he suddenly felt a bit guilty.

He quickly put on her sweater and picked up the phone, pretending to be calm. “Why are you calling suddenly?”

Shen Jue’s magnetic yet expressionless voice sounded from the other end of the line. “Are you alright?”

Gu Yanshu paused for a moment and then regained his composure. “What do you mean by, am I alright?”

“I saw the video on the Internet. The fruit juice was in a cup for hot drinks. So, were you scalded?” When Shen Jue spoke to Gu Yanshu, his tone was low and gentle, and no one else deserved to hear that tone.

Besides, Shen Jue was clearly not at the scene, but he was the first person to worry if Gu Yanshu had scalded himself.

Gu Yanshu suddenly thought that this was probably why he couldn’t forget Shen Jue for so many years. He replied softly, “It wasn’t hot. It was just warm.”

“Alright, show me.”

“What do you want me to show you?” Gu Yanshu was a bit confused.

“Your waist.”

No one knew how Shen Jue had this ability, but for some reason, when he said these two words in a harsh tone and added a lazy, almost forced smile in the end, a simple phrase like that suddenly sounded a little indecent.

Gu Yanshu immediately flew into a rage, out of humiliation. “Shen Jue, are you crazy? Why are you acting like a hooligan in broad daylight?”

Shen Jue chuckled on the other end of the phone. “Do you mean that I can be a hooligan at night then?”
