“Stay here and look through the photos. I’ll go down and prepare dinner.”
“Alright.” Bai Sheng nodded silently.
Chu He pushed the door open and walked out.
Bai Sheng sat on the bed and quietly flipped through the album.
!!After a while, she heard footsteps approaching the door.
She was so absorbed in looking through the photographs that she did not hear the footsteps initially. By the time she did, Gu Chengze was already behind her.
He hugged her waist from behind and asked gently, “What are you looking at?”
“Looking at your childhood photos.”
Gu Chengze’s face instantly turned red. He looked at the album and was about to reach out to snatch it away when Bai Sheng stopped him.
“What are you doing?”
“There’s nothing to see!”
“That’s not true!” Bai Sheng said solemnly, “I think you were very adorable when you were young!”
Gu Chengze’s face turned red, but it was because he was shy. “Really?”
“Uh huh. Has no one ever said that?”
“The album has always been kept by my mother. I wouldn’t show it to anyone.”
Bai Sheng suddenly stared into his eyes and stopped talking.
Gu Chengze looked into her eyes. He was able to act calm for a moment, but gradually, his breathing became rapid. Bai Sheng’s deep gaze made him feel like he was being scrutinized.
It was not that he was uncomfortable, but he could sense her probing.
“What’s the matter?” He could not help asking.
Bai Sheng suddenly demanded, “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“Eh?” He was surprised for a moment, not understanding what she meant. “Why didn’t you say so earlier?”
“That you’re Baby Chu…”
Gu Chengze was stunned. Before Bai Sheng could say anything, Gu Chengze covered his face in shame and said, “Stop calling me ‘Baby Chu’…”
Bai Sheng laughed out loud. “When we were young, you actually rejected the name Gu Chengze.”
“Did I?”
“You did.” Bai Sheng recalled, “You said that the name ‘Baby Chu’ was given to you by your mother, and ‘Chengze’ was given to you by your father. Since you were young, you had been more fond of your mother than your father, so you preferred to go by the name ‘Baby Chu’ and did not like me to call you ‘Chengze’. Why do you now dislike ‘Baby Chu’? Do you feel that it is too old-fashioned?”
Gu Chengze was a little surprised. He looked at Bai Sheng in a daze and said in disbelief, “You… You still remember that?”
“Yes, of course I remember.”
“Well then …” For some reason, Gu Chengze became nervous. It was a side of him that she rarely saw. He asked her cautiously, “Will you regret it?”
“Regret because I remember who you are?”
“Uh huh.”
Bai Sheng said helplessly, “If I regretted it, would I be talking to you like this now? Idiot.”
After realizing that he was Baby Chu, Bai Sheng no longer felt that inexplicable distance between them. All of a sudden, she felt a sense of closeness towards this man.
When they were young, the two of them were close friends. As she grew up, his name gradually faded together with her painful childhood memories.
But now that she recalled the past closeness with him, other than longing for him, there was also a sense of familiarity.
Bai Sheng put her arms around his shoulders and said, “Why should I regret it! I’ve liked you since we were young.”
