I Want to F*** You - Chapter 140
Chapter 140 Because I love You, Nothing More
Their engagement party came so suddenly that Tao Ruan couldn’t react to it.
“Is it because I cried that night?” Tao Ruan asked looking at Gu Zhizhou.
Gu Zhizhou smiled and took the diamond necklace from the stylist that was bright in color and matches Tao Ruan’s skin tone. Then helped her to put it gently on her neck, then whispered in her ears, “It’s not because of that?”
Tao Ruan blinked her thick and long eyelashes, Gu Zhizhou is caressing her cheeks and continued to ask, “What is the reason then?”
Gu Zhizhou held her delicate chin, bent over and dropped a kiss on her delicate lips, “Because I love you and want to marry you, that’s all.”
Tao Ruan’s heart beat accelerated again, Gu Zhizhou have said countless love words to her before but she still feels her heart flutter every time. She is moved by his sincere feelings.
“I love you too, Azhou.”
Gu Zhizhou refused the help of the stylist who wanted to arrange Tao Ruan’s skirt, he personally squatted down to help her, then stood up and took her hand.
“I’m a little nervous.” Tao Ruan’s palms are sweating lightly.
Gu Zhizhou smiled warmly and coaxed her, “Don’t be afraid, its only our relatives and closest friends that are attending, no one will embarrass you and besides I am here.”
Tao Ruan shook Gu Zhizhou’s hands with her, anxious. Somewhat relieved but still nervous, “What should I do if I say the wrong thing later? Will you be ashamed of me?”
Gu Zhizhou caress the bridge of her nose and continued to coax her, “I will never be ashamed of you, I like everything about you.”
“It’s not a question whether you like it or not…”
“Then I’ll change my words, Ruan Ruan you are very beautiful inside and out, no one can dislike you, don’t be afraid.”
Tao Ruan finally calm down, “Only you think so.”
Tao Ruan took a deep breath a couple of times and finally raised her head and smiled at Gu Zhizhou, “But if you think so, it’s enough.”
Tao Ruan walked out with Gu Zhizhou, even if she is still nervous. But after being held by Gu Zhizhou’s warm and powerful hands and absorbing some strngth from him, her tension finally releases from her.
She appeared in front of everyone in a generous, dignified and decent manner. They followed the prescribed process and was congratulated by everyone and nothing went wrong. Everything is perfect.
Tao Ruan’s father, stepmother and little brother all came over. Apart from her younger brother Tao Wenzhuo’s closeness and eagerness to her, the other two people treated her with indescribable politeness and alienation while congratulating her.
But Tao Ruan doesn’t care anymore.
She sincerely thanked her father and stepmother for taking care of her for so many years, she hugged them and took Tao Wenzhuo’s hand and went to get desserts and drinks.
“Sister.” Tao Wenzhuo, who is still a child raised his head and asked, “Are you really going to be married?”
Tao Ruan rubbed his head and said with a smile. “Well, not yet since I have not reach the legal marriage age, so it’s still an engagement.”
Gu Xiao came over and laughed when she heard this and threatened, “Did you forget? Your marriage has been settled. Sooner than later, you will belong to our family. Ruan Ruan, accept your fate, you are destined to be my sister-in-law in this life.”
Gu Xiao didn’t have any bad intentions, just friendly teasing, but Tao Wenzhuo didn’t hear her teasing tone and almost cried, “Who are you? Why are you being fierce to my sister?”
Gu Xiao is amuse by Tao Wenzhuo’s reaction, she bent over and lightly flicked his nose, “I am fierce? Do you think I’m bullying your sister? Aren’t you a boy? Why are you crying?”
It’s fine if Gu Xiao didn’t said that, Tao Wenzhuo choked even more, “Don’t bully my sister, my sister is very good.”
Tao Ruan just smiled and teach Gu Xiao a lesson while coaxing her little brother.
Ji Wanqiu saw the situation and brought Ji Xia to join the fun. Several people talked and laughed for a while, but Tao Ruan’s stepmother came and took Tao Wenzhuo away. Then Ji Wanqiu brought Tao Ruan to introduce to her friend, showing off her closeness with her prospective daughter-in-law.
Ji Wanqiu’s love and care touch Tao Ruan and is really happy talking with her, but when she glance around, she saw Ji Xia drinking alone and seems to be struggling with something.
Tao Ruan suddenly thought of something and asked to be excused.
“Are you tired?” Ji Wanqiu ask, “If you are tired, go back to the room to rest, you don’t need to stay with me.”
Tao Ruan smiled and shook her head and said no, but Ji Wanqiu insisted. Seeing her look tired, she immediately called Ji Xia to accompany her to the room to rest.
Tao Ruan happened to have something to say to Ji Xia, so she went along and no longer refuse.
The two went upstairs together and returned to the hotel room. Tao Ruan did not rest but pulled Ji Xia to the window to see the riverside scenery below.
“Xia Xia.” Tao Ruan called her.
“What’s the matter?” Ji Xia smiled reluctantly.
“It should be me asking you what’s wrong, you seem to be absent-minded,” Tao Ruan turned around and looked at her and asked, “Are you fighting with your biracial boyfriend?”
Ji Xia denied.
“Then it’s because of me.” Tao Ruan used affirmative sentences and Ji Xia couldn’t refute at all.
“Ruan Ruan, I…”
Tao Ruan could see Ji Xia’s struggle, so she pulled her and sat down, then warmly said, “It’s okay, I know.”
Now Ji Xia is a little overwhelmed, “What?”
“I though about it, with your personality, you took the initiative to make friends with me. A freshman who just entered the university and was so enthusiatic. It’s a bit weird. In fact someone asked you to do that, right?”
“You…you knew?”
“I just wanted some clarification, Azhou shouldn’t be the one who convinces you, right? The person who asked you to do this is probably your aunt, right?”
It could only be Ji Wanqiu.
“I’m sorry…” Ji Xia came over and hugged her, her body is trembling and her voice choked, “Ruan Ruan, I’m really sorry.”
Tao Ruan hugged her back and said softly, “It’s okay.”
Tao Ruan said okay but it made Ji Xia even more guilty, “Ruan Ruan, I’m really sorry, you don’t know how many things I have done behind your back, although you and Zhizhou are already engaged, but I…”
“Yes, I know. I can probably guess,” Tao Ruan looked at her, her eyes were still gentle and calm, “But fortunately it is Azhou, so no matter what happened, I can accept it.”
“Sorry…” Ji Xia who has always been strong, at this moment, she is crying hard.
It turned out that sometimes it’s not that difficult to talk about things, and Ji Xia uttered the frustrations she had been carrying and repeatedly apologized to Tao Ruan. Finally the secret Ji Xia has been hiding is revealed.
When they finally went out, Ji Xia asked Tao Ruan if they can still be friends.
Tao Ruan gave her a hug and said to her, “Azhou is your brother, and I will be your sister-in-law, this will never change.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Zhizhou came over. Tao Ruan bid farewell to Ji Xia along with Gu Zhizhou and then closed the door.
“Was Xia Xia crying?” Gu Zhizhou asked Tao Ruan.
Tao Ruan curled her lips, “It’s something you did.”
Gu Zhizhou raised his eyebrows and said in a puzzled way, “Me? I haven’t provoke her recently.”
Tao Ruan looked at him with her eyebrows bent and stepped forward to give Gu Zhizhou a hug.
“It doesn’t matter.” Tao Ruan said.
She can tell Ji Xia clearly because she saw the struggle in Ji Xia’s eyes. If she doesn’t confront Ji Xia, the secret will always lie between them.
But Gu Zhizhou is different.
For her and Gu Zhizhou, there are some things that don’t need to be clarified, and their current status is their best way to stay together.
“Ruan Ruan?” Gu Zhizhou called her.
Tao Ruan shook Gu Zhizhou’s hand when she heard him calling her. And led him to lean towards her skirt, then with blushing face she said, “I want it, husband.”
