Part 2: *East Land's Sweetness* Chapter 35: Melting int

h other's thoughts.It is late at night now, and even the students who had been playing noisily next door have gone to sleep. Only a few lanterns in the courtyard of the guesthouse are still casting a...Gu Ruandong had taken a shower and changed his clothes, so he looked refreshed.

As soon as he walked in, he greeted Lu Kuò and then his gaze fell on Yáo Yáo, who was sitting with her back to them. His heart tightened with a pang of pain, but outwardly, he acted as if nothing was wrong, chatting amiably with Lu Kuò as they walked over and sat down beside Yáo Yáo.

Sitting very close, arms touching hers, the hand under the table grasped hers with perfect precision.

Lu Yaoyao suddenly stood up and said to Lu Kuò, "Brother, you sit over here. I want to sit with Ruanruan and bask in her good fortune."

She never looked at Ruan Dong once, of course, nor did she give him any expression. She just smiled pleasantly and genuinely, as if wanting to change seats.

As an actor, she's still got it. If she doesn't want to show her true emotions, no one can tell.

Lu Kuò didn't doubt him, and immediately changed seats with her, letting her sit next to Ruanruan.

She didn't have much appetite. After changing her seat, she stopped eating. Gu Ruandong across from her also didn't eat much, his eyes kept falling on her. Thinking of what his mother said, she had chased after his car for a long distance last night. Just the thought of it made him feel heartbroken.

But the girl opposite seemed to show no signs, chatting happily with Lu Kuò and Ruan Ruan.

"Wasn't it agreed that we couldn't announce anything to the outside world for three months"

"It's not like my brother, you know. It's already all over town within a day."

Lu Kuo: "Don't be superstitious, good news should of course be shared with everyone."

Gu Ruandong's attention was finally drawn away from Yao Yao. He understood what they were talking about. Ruan Ruan was pregnant

Lu Kuo finally achieved his goal: "You all "

Come on!

Gu Ruandong glanced at Yaoyao opposite him and followed Lu Kuo's words: "You need to cheer up. It's getting late, I won't disturb you. Yaoyao, go home!"

Naturally, it seemed as if there was no barrier between them, just like in the past. Lu Yaoyao didn't want to refuse in front of Lu Kuo and Ruan Ruan, so she got up and said goodbye to them.

Gu Ruandong was very attentive, he walked over to her side, took her bag for her, and naturally put his arm around her shoulder as they walked out. It wasn't until the elevator door closed that Lu Yaoyao's smile vanished. She struggled to break free from his grasp and stood on the other side of the elevator. Acting was tiring, she didn't want to act anymore.

"Yao Yao." Gu Ruan Dong came over to hug her, but she pushed him away.

She usually loved to be clingy and act cute with him, it was because of love, a natural reaction. But now, truly heartbroken, she guarded herself against him, not wanting him to touch her. It was also a natural reaction of repulsion.

They remained frozen, until they got into the car. Gu Ruandong, ignoring everything else, forcefully pulled her into his arms and held her tight, refusing to let go even as she struggled.

"I'm sorry," he said over and over again.

Lu Yaoyao couldn't match his strength, she struggled in vain and fell silent, letting him hold her. He said sorry, but she didn't want to hear it.

Because of love, many feelings will be magnified. For example, the first time he showed impatience towards her, or the first time he left her alone at home, these things all took a toll on their relationship. The original, overflowing love was discounted, becoming eight points out of ten. It is difficult to repair.

She remained silent all the way home. When she was truly angry, she didn't make a fuss or argue; instead, she became so quiet that Gu Ruandong felt helpless. Before going to sleep that night, Gu Ruandong hugged her from behind and finally spoke.

"Big Jin left last night."

Lu Yao froze, the name felt familiar, but he couldn't match it with a face. He just knew she was his friend.

"Unexpectedly, he was stabbed in the vital area and didn't survive." He calmly stated the matter, refraining from revealing any details or graphic scenes of the process in front of her.

He can be a bit of a chauvinist sometimes, thinking that no matter what happens outside, he should just handle it himself, while his woman should just live carefree. But today's event made him realize they are husband and wife, one body, inseparable.

Lu YaoYao finally turned around, facing him.

"Isn't that the one with the gold ring on his hand" She had privately told Gu Ruandong before that she thought his gold ring was ugly.

"Hmm."

With a concrete image, matching the name to the face, sadness followed, for a life suddenly gone.

"I'm sorry." She hadn't realized how hard he'd been having it these past few days, and for the first time, she truly felt the gulf that separated them. They were so different.

Gu Ruandong hugged her and kissed her. She responded silently, with less passion and more comfort. After a while, Gu Ruandong stopped and asked her, "Does your foot still hurt"

He stood up and looked at her foot.

She shook her head, saying she wasn't hurt. This little scratch was nothing compared to what he'd been through. But Gu Ruandong took it seriously, observing carefully. Seeing that the wound was just a small cut without any blood, he finally felt relieved.

"When is the funeral for Da Jin I'll go with you."

Gu Ruandong was silent for a long time. Seeing her sincere and brave eyes, as if she had made up her mind to integrate into his world, he...

After some hesitation, he finally agreed. "Okay,"

Two people slept in each other's arms. Late at night, Lu Yaoyao lifted her head from his embrace: "Gu Ruandong, I'm not as weak as you think."

She is the one who can stand by his side through thick and thin.

"I know."

Da Jin's memorial service was very low-key, only attended by his few relatives and a few people from Da Fangbao Sang. They didn't expect Gu Ruandong to bring Lu YaoYao.

"Young Master Gu, what do you mean"

Gu Ruandong ignored them, brought Yao Yao to offer flowers to Da Jin, and after bowing three times, he walked in front of them.

"Yao Yao, let me formally introduce you. This is Xu Ze Fang, Bao Sang, and Chen Xin Min..."

All of them were afraid of him, even if they were unhappy inside, they didn't dare to speak up.

Lu Yaoyao greeted everyone one by one, this time she seriously remembered everyone's names and appearances. This memorial service was also a farewell to a way of life for her, stepping out of her comfort zone and into Gu Ruandong's world, the beginning of a new chapter.

Actually, in terms of integration, her life hasn't changed much. At most, Gu Ruantong would tell her about things when he had something going on, and no longer conceal them.

She's still the same every day, either at home or going to and fro for commercials or appointments, looking out for good scripts along the way.

One day, I suddenly discovered that Song Jingye, the big shot we borrowed from their office, had disappeared for a long time.

"You're so slow, Mr. Song hasn't been back since he finished the cake last time."

Shan Shan: "I still miss him. It's nice to have such a masculine man in the company, it makes me feel secure. He just isn't very polite though, he didn't even say goodbye when he left."

"He's just really impolite."

So, there's at least one.her,"Come get your money, be obedient, go play over there. Mommy is busy." Yi Xin stopped him.< 招財？ > to bring wealthSounds like a dog's name!She smiled, and the little boy jumped onto the sofa. Whet...
