Rebirth! The Assassin's Revenge-Chapter 481: He Took It Seriously

For some reason, Gu Ningyue always felt that ever since that night, Ling Tianyou’s gaze on her had changed.

Aside from love, there seemed to be something else in his eyes, something that made her heart itch, making Ning Yue afraid to look at Ling Tianyou more.

"What’s wrong with you? Why are you blushing?" The more it was like this, the more Ling Tianyou seemed unwilling to let her go.

Gu Ningyue turned her head, looking out at the night outside the window, and said, "It’s too hot. So what? Can’t I?"

Ling Tianyou pressed his lips together and smiled, "Not really, it’s quite cute."

Gu Ningyue was taken aback, her face turning even redder.

Cute? Every time Ling Tianyou praised her for being cute, Gu Ningyue always felt a bit awkward.

After all, growing up, the words she heard most were quite the opposite of cute.

"I guess you’re the only one in the world who thinks I’m cute." Gu Ningyue looked at the scenery rushing past outside and said, "If my master heard you, he’d definitely laugh at you."

While driving, Ling Tianyou said, "Not necessarily, your master wouldn’t dare laugh at me, what do you think?"

Gu Ningyue was silent for two seconds. True! There’s no one in this world who dares to laugh at Ling Tianyou.

Except someone reckless, or maybe someone whose brain is not right, like a mad person.

Speaking of her master, she had asked him to check on Lin Ruixian, but she didn’t know how Lin Ruixian was doing now.

Subconsciously, she took out her phone and checked, the chat box still lingered at the end of their last conversation, with no new messages.

But come to think of it, no news is probably better than bad news. With this thought, Gu Ningyue put her phone away again.

She turned her head, looking at Ling Tianyou, and said, "I told Shen Hanyin about our engagement."

Ling Tianyou nodded, "How is Shen Hanyin’s injury? Can she attend our engagement? If it’s inconvenient, I can figure something out."

He knew Shen Hanyin was Gu Ningyue’s only friend, he certainly knew what Gu Ningyue was thinking.

Gu Ningyue responded, "She can walk now, recovery is going well, she promised me she would definitely go."

"That’s good." Ling Tianyou turned to look at Gu Ningyue, "By the time we get married, Shen Hanyin could probably stand on stage, invite her to be your bridesmaid then! No one else is more fitting."

Marriage... Gu Ningyue thought of what Shen Hanyin said at the Shen Family, hesitating for a moment, "Have you already thought about when to get married?"

Ling Tianyou smiled and said, "Of course, I’ve thought about it, why? Are you scared?"

Gu Ningyue didn’t speak, she lowered her head, twisting her fingers, lost in thought.

Ling Tianyou didn’t pressure Gu Ningyue either. The car drove for a long way before Gu Ningyue finally said slowly, "I think we should get to know each other more once Jin Chenglong’s matter is over, and then talk about it. I think... let’s not rush into marriage! I’m still not quite ready. Getting married in half a year seems too fast..."

The traffic light turned red at an intersection, and Ling Tianyou turned to look at Gu Ningyue, "Who told you I planned to get married in half a year?"

Gu Ningyue paused, "Han Yin said it’s usually like this! People usually get married six months after getting engaged. I thought you planned the same, so..."

Ling Tianyou reached out and ruffled Gu Ningyue’s hair, "I didn’t plan to get married that quickly. We’re getting engaged because we want to, and we’ll get married because we both want to, not just because I want to."

The most shameless thing in this world is forcing others to fulfill your own wishes, something Ling Tianyou always scorned.

Gu Ningyue was worried that Ling Tianyou would one day force marriage, but hearing him say this, she suddenly felt a desire to be with him.

The moment this thought appeared, Gu Ningyue quickly shook her head internally, wondering why she was so easily moved.

"Stick to your words!" Gu Ningyue smiled with her lips pressed together, looking at Ling Tianyou and said, "You better not force marriage then."

Ling Tianyou nodded, "Don’t worry! I won’t. But if you want to force me to marry, I’d absolutely agree."

Gu Ningyue was a little surprised, was this really coming from Ling Tianyou’s mouth?

Ling Tianyou seemed to see through her thoughts and said slowly as the red light turned green, "See, you don’t truly understand the real me, do you?"

Gu Ningyue nodded, "No rush, there’s plenty of time."

Even couples who have been together for decades may not dare claim to truly understand each other!

To think about it, she had only been with Ling Tianyou for about half a year. Who could fully understand someone in such a short time?

There’s plenty of time, Gu Ningyue believed that after that night, she and Ling Tianyou were truly a couple.

As she was being herself, Ling Tianyou was also slowly revealing his true self.

This was good, at least Gu Ningyue felt this was good.

All the way back home, Gu Ningyue and Ling Tianyou got out of the car, the assistant returned the keys to Gu Ningyue, greeted Ling Tianyou, and left.

"My family said to come back for dinner tomorrow night. Do you want to prepare anything?" Ling Tianyou handed his coat to Aunt Zhang and said this to Gu Ningyue.

Gu Ningyue was taken aback, "So soon?"

Ling Tianyou nodded, "The sooner we go back, the sooner things can be settled, so I can arrange my time, and we also need to prepare various things, let’s go back early!"

Gu Ningyue responded, "Okay. By the way..."

"Hmm, what is it?" Ling Tianyou asked.

Gu Ningyue, "After tomorrow, should we visit Tianze?"

Mentioning his brother, Ling Tianyou fell silent, "Let’s talk about it later!"

Going now, Ling Tianze might not want to see him, better to wait a while before going.

Gu Ningyue looked at Ling Tianyou and said, "He still hasn’t forgiven you?"

Ling Tianyou nodded, "Next time Liu Liu goes, maybe it’ll be better with Liu Liu."

Gu Ningyue sighed, "This wasn’t your fault, you were right."

She had said this more than once, and each time Ling Tianyou heard it, that feeling of disappointment in his heart seemed to ease a little.

Holding Gu Ningyue’s hand, Ling Tianyou looked at this girl in front of him and softly said thank you, "Thank you."

Gu Ningyue smiled, "What are old married couples saying this for?"

Though it was a joke, Ling Tianyou couldn’t help but raise a slight smile, "Since we’re old married couples, how about not sleeping separately tonight?"

Gu Ningyue was stunned, "That’s not possible."

Ling Tianyou reached out and brushed her hair onto her back, "Aren’t you the one who said old married couples? Hmm?"

Gu Ningyue was at a loss for words, "I-I was joking, how did you take it seriously!"

Ling Tianyou chuckled, "Indeed, I took it seriously."
