“Luo Luo, I love you. I might sound greedy saying this, but I still want you, your person, and your heart. I want them all.”
Gu Zhan said that with affection. He revealed his possessiveness for Su Luo.
He had never been someone who loved without asking for anything in return. He loved Su Luo, and he also wanted Su Luo’s love.
“I don’t need you to give me the same kind of love, but the feelings you give me should at least be within the scope of love. It shouldn’t be sympathy, not charity, and certainly not for revenge. It should be only, and only love.”
Gu Zhan added a few more sentences.
Su Luo was touched when Gu Zhan said that. It turned out that behind the forbearance he gave her was the little dignity that Gu Zhan left for himself.
He would rather Su Luo not say that she loved him than accept that Su Luo’s love was not pure.
Su Luo envied the original Su Luo. She should be happy that Gu Zhan loved her.
However, at the same time, Su Luo felt sadness surging in her. Gu Zhan loved Su Luo, the original Su Luo.
The deep love that she felt now belonged to another person.
She was lucky enough to feel Gu Zhan’s love because she had taken over the body of the original Su Luo.
Gu Zhan saw the disappointed look in Su Luo’s eyes, but he thought Su Luo was like that because she agreed to what he had told just now. She couldn’t give him the things he wanted, so she felt sad.
Gu Zhan couldn’t bear to see her feeling uncomfortable, but he also had a feeling that he might have said that a little abruptly. So, he comforted her, “It’s okay. I know it’s difficult for you to love me. I can wait. We can discuss the rest of the details when you love me back.”
Su Luo shook her head and suggested, “Gu Zhan, we have had so many misunderstandings and pain in the past. I don’t think you want to recall it. How about this? Let’s pretend that we have never known each other and start over again, okay?”
She wanted to get along with Gu Zhan with her identity and not the original owner’s. As for whether Gu Zhan would fall in love with the real her, that was not something she should think about now.
“Who are you?”
Gu Zhan looked at her suspiciously and questioned her.
Su Luo felt danger approaching. She gulped and looked at Gu Zhan in a daze.
She was thinking about what she should do now.
She must have done so many things that Su Luo would not have done in the first place, which made Gu Zhan realize something was wrong.
How could she explain it to Gu Zhan so that he would believe her?
Countless excuses appeared in Su Luo’s mind, but she denied them one by one.
Just as Su Luo was feeling anxious, Gu Zhan said, “I always have a feeling that you are very different from the previous you, but you are still you. Alright, I agree with your request. Let’s start over.”
Su Luo heaved a sigh of relief. Her palms were sweaty from nervousness just now.
She rubbed her hands on the towel and extended her right hand as she said, “Hello, my name is Su Luo. Nice to meet you.”
Gu Zhan held her hand and mimicked her way of greeting, “Hello, my name is Gu Zhan.”
The two of them looked at each other and smiled. It was a brand-new start for both Su Luo and Gu Zhan.
Su Luo insisted Gu Zhan move into her room. Gu Zhan agreed upon her continuous request.
Su Luo helped Gu Zhan pack up his daily necessities, and Gu Zhan officially moved into Su Luo’s bedroom.
When Nanny Zhang heard the commotion, she brought the two kids out to check on the situation. When she saw that the two of them were sleeping in the same room, she was so happy that tears welled up in her eyes.
Gu Zhan had finally got something in return. Su Luo had finally accepted him.
Nanny Zhang brought up Gu Zhan as her own. She loved him like loving her kid and hoped for the best for him.
Nanny Zhang had witnessed Gu Zhan’s devotion to Su Luo all these years.
She had always felt sorry for Gu Zhan’s humble love. Now that she saw that Gu Zhan’s persistence had paid off, she was happy to see Gu Zhan happy.
Nanny Zhang was afraid of disturbing the two of them, so she brought the two kids to her room to play.
Gu Zhan did not have many things. So, they took only a few minutes to move them into the bedroom.
“Alright, now that you have brought your things into the room, then we...”
Su Luo’s looked away embarrassedly. She wanted to say something, but she hesitated because she was embarrassed.
“I’m going to take a shower first.”
Gu Zhan had been busy all day, and his body was sweaty. He wanted to wash off the sweaty smell on his body.
Su Luo agreed. “Yes, yes, yes. You should take a shower first.”
Gu Zhan was amused to see her like that. He pinched her cheek and said, “Silly Luo Luo, there are some things that I hope you can do when you’re ready.”
He didn’t want to be a substitute anymore, and he didn’t want to hear another man’s name from Su Luo’s mouth when they were in bed.
