Back Then, I Adored You

She was depressed by the words that he had just said. Only then did she realize that he was exactly like the one who had talked to her seriously for the first time.

That day, he had asked for her name.

She had told him that her name was Qin Zhi’ai, but he could call her Xiao’ai, which meant love.

He had said a few words like earlier that had made her blush. “Love? Love to eat?”

Not hearing her response, he went on, “You don’t like it? Then what about sweetheart?”

At that time, he had changed her nickname several times and finally decided to call her sweetheart.

Time flew by. In an evening eight years later, he had gone through many nicknames once again and finally settled on calling her hellraiser.

It turned out that he hadn’t changed over such a long time, still the same person she had known before.

Qin Zhi’ai’s heart was suddenly filled with an emotion that moved her.

Gu Yusheng, you’ll never know how much I miss the old days.

You’ll never know how happy I am when I see someone like you were in the old days.

…

In fact, at the very beginning Gu Yusheng had responded to those words only to make fun of Qin Zhi’ai.

In fact, he hadn’t intended to have such a long conversation with her. However, he didn’t know what had happened. He just hadn’t been able to help teasing her after seeing her lovely reactions.

In his impression, he had never teased girls before in his life. Because he hadn’t intended to have relationships, he had always kept his distance from them.

To his surprise, he could joke with her so naturally that it was as if he had done it many times before in his dreams.

He had thought that she would respond to him with only an angry look. Exceeding his expectations, she answered back.

Is she not afraid of me any longer?

He hadn’t known why he was so delighted when thinking that. However, she hadn’t finished her words. She had swallowed her words down and shut her mouth suddenly.

Does she fear me now? So she stopped?

Suddenly, just like riding a roller coaster, a sense of loss had captured him. He had slowly raised his eyes and looked into her eyes. Then he had realized that she was not afraid at all, but staring at him emptily.

Her eyes had been so attractive that he had been able to sense the their brightness with glistening waves though he could not see her face clearly because of the dim light in the room. As she thought of something else, her eyes had become brighter. Captivated by those attractive eyes, his heart had beat so rapidly that he felt lust burning in his body. He hadn’t been able to control his physiological reaction as a male.

Thinking about the past in a daze, Qin Zhi’ai hadn’t realized that she was lying on Gu Yusheng’s body until she felt something hard touching her lower abdomen. Feeling more and more uncomfortable, she frowned and pulled herself back to reality. As she moved her body, she felt the hard thing became harder, so she subconsciously reached out to touch the thing against her lower abdomen.

A muffled groan rang through her ears the moment she reached the thing. She raised her head involuntarily. After meeting Gu Yusheng’s burning eyes, she suddenly realized what she had touched and quickly withdrew her hand.
