Nan Baihao faked his tears and said enthusiastically, "Yes, I might shed a tear of emotion myself. Just imagine Chenxing, that innocent girl, bursting into tears and throwing herself into your arms."
Gu Shaocheng’s daydream was abruptly interrupted. He blinked, sweeping a look towards Nan Baihao, clearing his throat, "Baihao, don’t interrupt. Wuqing, continue."
At this mont, the butler brought the desired Tieguanyin tea. Bai Wuqing leisurely took a sip, looking at Gu Shaocheng, "That’s all. Isn’t this enough?"
A dreamy and romantic confusion appeared on Gu Shaocheng’s face. His finger continually tapping on the tabletop, pondering sothing.
After a mont, he raised a brow, feigning seriousness, "Is it too ostentatious? Doing this kind of thing, could it be beneath my status? What if she rejects ? Where will my face go then?"
Nan Baihao continued to rile him up, "Bro, let tell you, status and dignities are nothing in front of a woman you love. If you could exude so of that charm you displayed during that drunken exotic dance in Japan, Chenxing would certainly fall into your trap. With your fierce and threatening deanor, you’re only going to scare her away."
Gu Shaocheng tried to appear impassive, but still a hint of a smile slipped through, "I’m almost thirty, still acting like a love-struck boy? Isn’t that embarrassing?"
Of course, while he made fun of himself, anyone who dared to actually say he was embarrassing would have a swift kick coming at them. That’s why Bai Wuqing shook his head knowingly.
Nan Baihao agreed wisely, "How could that be embarrassing?"
Hua Hua enthusiastically chid in, "Big Brother, I totally support you! You’re only twenty-eight, far from thirty!"
Gu Shaocheng’s eyes flickered, he sighed lightly. A trace of annoyance surfaced on his fair face, "No, it’s not acceptable. It would tarnish my dignity."
Even though his heart was already moved by the plan, he continued to act unimpressed, waiting for his comrades to urge him. It’s as if he was an eager prince waiting to ascend the throne after the emperor’s death, yet needing to go through ceremonial rituals. Only after receiving pleas from courtiers, he would reluctantly agree.
This was exactly how Gu Shaocheng felt now, waiting for his buddies to push him onto the pedestal.
Nan Baihao was even more anxious than him, "Big Brother, what are you hesitating for? I’ll arrange everything for you - flowers, candles, fireworks with wordings, decorative lights, colorful balloons – these impractical things young girls love!"
Hua Hua volunteered, "Brother, count in, I’ll help design a heart-shaped photo collage, I’m good at it. Just pay a small fee for my services, how about it?"
Gu Shaocheng laid back, picturing a certain girl whose actions contradicted her words, toppled into his arms.
So beautiful, so heartwarming.
He looked at his buddies, his lips curving into an indulgent smile, "Well, should I give it a shot?"
