“Oh right.” Leaning on Gu Yu Cheng’s shoulder, Su Rui suddenly thought of something and lifted her head to look at Gu Yu Cheng.
“Aren’t you forgetting something?” Su Rui fluttered her eyelashes and asked.
With Su Rui’s reminder, Gu Yu Cheng did remember something he had forgotten about.
“Sorry, I almost forgot.” Gu Yu Cheng smiled and took out a very exquisite box from the suit pocket in his jacket.
“A gift.” Gu Yu Cheng said as he handed that box to Su Rui.
Su Rui took the box and opened it.
Looking at the way Su Rui opened the box, Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes moved slightly.
When Gu Yu Cheng collected the necklace, the staff helped him put it into this box.
After that, when Gu Yu Cheng wanted to occasionally take the necklace out to have a look at it. However, he realised that he didn’t know where and how to open the box. After trying several methods, he couldn’t even open the box lock.
After he retrieved the box, he has always kept it by his side. It was initially intended to be given to Su Rui when they met, but it was disrupted by the previous incident on the internet.
At this moment, Su Rui did not notice the somewhat amusing astonishment in Gu Yu Cheng’s eyes as her entire attention was fixed on the box.
Lying quietly in the box was a necklace. Judging from the length of the chain, it should be a clavicle chain.
The entire necklace is exquisitely designed with the pendant designed in the shape of a teardrop with an aqua blue diamond in the centre.
It is pretty and not too ostentatious.
In short, it was very much to Su Rui’s liking.
Seeing that Su Rui took out the necklace from the box, Gu Yu Cheng added, “When I was in City S, I just happened to pass by a design studio and saw this. I thought it was perfect for you so I bought it.”
“Do you like it?” Gu Yu Cheng eyed Su Rui slightly nervously and asked.
“En, I like it a lot. Thank you, Yu Cheng~” Su Rui said and gave Gu Yu Cheng a big smile, dragging the end of the words.
Hearing Su Rui’s words, Gu Yu Cheng also curved into a smile.
“Shall I put it on for you?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.
“Next time.” Su Rui softly, but the actual implication was a resolute refusal.
Although the image of a boyfriend putting on a necklace for his girlfriend is one of the classic romantic scenes, it is also a matter of timing and location.
In the dim light and light drizzle, leaving aside whether it would look good or not wearing the necklace, she highly suspects that Gu Yu Cheng could find the clasp of the necklace.
And it is freezing now.
A gust of wind blew, Su Rui shrank her neck in fear of cold, and then subconsciously leaned towards the “heat source”.
“Su Rui.” Gu Yu Cheng suddenly opened his mouth and called out to Su Rui.
“Hm?”
“I have an apartment nearby.” Seemingly pausing for a few seconds, Gu Yu Cheng said in a slightly lower tone.
After a pause, Gu Yu Cheng’s Adam apple moved slightly and added, “It’s not far. If we travel by car, it’s five minutes away.”
Su Rui: !
When Su Rui heard what Gu Yu Cheng had said, she was first shocked but quickly understood what Gu Yu Cheng meant and also figured out the tinge of nervousness when this person spoke.
“I’m going back to the dorm.” Su Rui said in a muffled voice.
Of course, she couldn’t go to Gu Yu Cheng’s apartment with him.
Even though they wouldn’t necessarily do anything when they are there together, it wasn’t like she couldn’t go back to the dormitory in the middle of the night. Therefore, following Gu Yu Cheng to his place was still a bit unjustifiable.
Of course, those are not the point.
The more important reason is other than this long coat that can be seen from the exterior, she is currently wearing pyjamas on the inside!
Moreover, she had no make-up, nor was her hair combed currently. It was because he couldn’t see clearly in the middle of the night that Su Rui dared to appear in front of him like that.
If it is during the day…
She simply can’t imagine.
So going back with Gu Yu Cheng was out of the question.
“I have classes in the morning.” As she pondered, Su Rui added.
“En.” Gu Yu Cheng responded.
Ignoring the hint of regret in his heart, Gu Yu Cheng reflected on his abruptness and haste at the same time.
“Sorry.” Gu Yu Cheng apologised.
Upon hearing that, Su Rui laughed lightly and batted her eyelashes towards Gu Yu Cheng.
“Because you called me out in the middle of the night?” Su Rui asked half-jokingly.
“Then you can send me back.”
Gu Yu Cheng: ?
“Which way did you just come out from?
“Here, over there. There is a hole in the middle which is just right for me to get out.”
“Let’s go.” After saying that, Su Rui pulled Gu Yu Cheng’s hands and directly pulled the person towards the side of the dormitory building.
“Be careful.” Gu Yu Cheng held the other person’s hands and carefully helped Su Rui through the hole in the guardrail.
“Sorry.” Gu Yu Cheng apologised again.
“No need to say that.” Su Rui smiled and added, “Just assume that I also miss you a lot.”
After saying that, Su Rui lightly pecked a kiss on the corner of Gu Yu Cheng’s mouth and added, “You should go back quickly, drive slower on the road.”
By the time Gu Yu Cheng wanted to chase her, Su Rui had already pulled away and retreated back behind the fence.
“Oh right, Gu Yu Cheng.” When preparing to return to the dormitory, Su Rui thought of something and asked again.
“Do you have a light blue tie?”
“I do.” Gu Yu Cheng recalled and responded.
Even if he doesn’t have one, it wouldn’t hurt to get one.
“What’s the matter?” Gu Yu Cheng asked.
“Nothing.” Su Rui smiled and said, “Good night.”
