Chapter 650 - 653 Nearly Thought We Could Grow Old Together10_1
Every time his emotions fluctuated intensely, just her simple act of wrapping her arms gently around his waist to give him a hug would soothe him, Gu Shaocheng found.
Like a potent cure-all remedy, it never failed.
In the past, he never needed such a remedy, and never allowed himself to. Facing any situation, he would stand tall and face it alone.
Exposing his "weakness" only gave his enemies opportunities to exploit.
Back then, Chenxing, a girl filled with radiance, did not exist in his world.
He was like an impregnable diamond then; wrapped in thick armor, always plotting and scheming. Whenever he encountered anything, he would combat force with force, resort to tricks and manipulations, appearing mature beyond his years – cool, calm, collected. He never considered the many emotions that most people should have.
But later, since her arrival, he discovered, there was another way to live.
She brought a completely new state to his life!
She made him understand that life was not just about wealth and power, and brotherhood, but there was another emotion that all mankind could not resist, called love!
That emotion, initially like poison, controlled your highs and lows, making you happy when it wanted, angry when it wanted, driving you crazy when it wanted, making you cheer when it wanted...you thought love was just a cup of poison, but after love was sublimated, you gained another kind of enlightenment.
Love is not just a cup of poison, but also a cup of medicinal wine.
When you’re wounded, love can heal you;
When joys and sorrows come to you, love can soothe you;
When you wish you could destroy the world, love is your only salvation.
Gu Shaocheng thought, love is just a cup of poison and a cup of medicinal wine. But at that moment, he found that love is a vine rooted in the bottom of one’s heart, once it takes root, what will it be like when it’s uprooted?
Chenxing, I may not be able to give you that kind of enduring love you desire;
His hand was placed on her chest, and his eyes were deeply gazing into hers. If you found a root in your heart and if it hurts like your heart is being torn apart one day...
"Husband?"
A murmured call brought Gu Shaocheng back from his thoughts.
Chenxing looked at Gu Shaocheng’s eyes with a perplexed stare, noticing his hand was placed on her chest, not teasing, but something deeper was reflected in his eyes. Immediately after, a clear drop of liquid rolled down silently from the corner of his eye.
Chenxing’s heart ached: "Husband, why are you crying again?"
Gu Shaocheng tried to hide: "Am I?"
A small hand softly wiped away his tear. She carefully asked Gu Shaocheng, "Shaocheng: Did something happen?" Before going to the Maldives, she had seen him shed tears once. He said it was the wind in his eyes, but Chenxing didn’t believe it. "Husband, if there’s anything, don’t hide it from me. I promised to share joy and sorrow with you, and I meant it."
"Hua Hua told me not to ask about your business and career. I know that as a girl, I shouldn’t inquire about your affairs. But I can be your listener. When you’re upset, you can tell me. I promise it will go in one ear and out the other. I will never eavesdrop on your business secrets. A lot of unhappy things, when spoken out, are like throwing out the garbage piled up in your heart, and you’ll feel a lot lighter. You can give it a try."
