Love You for the Rest of My Life

Did he suddenly bring it up because he’s turning thirty this year and still doesn’t have a girlfriend?

Then suddenly thought of it, and just brought up this so-called ’agreement’?

Gu Mian felt a bit awkward, this...

While she was lost in thought, her phone suddenly rang. She picked it up and surprisingly, it was a message from Nangong Yue. The message was simple, just a few words asking her, "Have you remembered?"

Gu Mian pondered for a while, then typed a reply, "I remembered."

"Then what’s your answer?" Nangong Yue quickly replied.

Gu Mian: "..."

"Answer, what answer, what do you mean?" Gu Mian was a bit puzzled.

Nangong Yue replied more directly, "Will you honor this agreement?"

This...

Gu Mian was suddenly unsure how to respond. This, this is too sudden.

Imagine a joke from three or four years ago, and now that person suddenly asks if you’ll keep the agreement, how would you respond?

Gu Mian didn’t reply immediately because she didn’t know how to reply.

Thinking it over and over, she couldn’t decide. If she said no, it felt like something was off, like she was letting him down. She was the one who said it, and now she’s telling him it was a joke?

If she replied yes, does that mean she has to start a relationship with Nangong Yue?

This...

It’s not that she doubted Nangong Yue, or thought he had a bad character or anything.

She actually knew that Nangong Yue’s character and personality were impeccable, not to mention he’s quite handsome.

But she just felt something was a bit off, though she couldn’t pinpoint exactly what. Maybe it’s because it’s too sudden, too fresh, too novel, too exciting!

She hadn’t replied yet when Nangong Yue suddenly sent another message, which almost made Gu Mian’s eyes pop out.

What he said was unbelievably straightforward, with a hint of assertiveness.

He said, "If you honor it, then when we return to the Empire, we’ll get a certificate."

When Gu Mian saw that, she was really floored, and her heart began to race. This sentence was a huge jolt to her, like being caught stealing red-handed.

Too exciting, too new, one couldn’t help but wonder what life would be like if that’s the case?

Thinking about it, she’s actually not young, even older than Nangong Lin. Now that Nangong Lin got married, and to Prince Alvin who is three years younger than her.

Yet she’s still single.

Nangong Yue’s sudden proposal caught her off guard.

She couldn’t help but reply, "Get a certificate? Does that mean having a wedding when we return home?"

This was simply too explosive. If it’s a hidden marriage, she could accept it, but having an immediate wedding was something her family might think they’ve gone mad!

"We can delay the wedding. Let’s have a hidden marriage first for half a year or a year, and then if you feel ready, we can have a wedding." That was Nangong Yue’s response.

Gu Mian blinked, oh, so Nangong the professor knows how to play at hidden marriages too, playing it quite novel!

"Let me think about it." Gu Mian replied with a few words.

"Give me your answer when we return to the country." That was Nangong Yue’s response, very simple and direct.

Gu Mian put her phone away and fell into deep thought.

Gu Yao came out and saw Gu Mian sitting on the bed with a pensive look, and couldn’t help but ask, "Sis. What’s up? I was calling you, didn’t you hear? Are you going to shower or not, because if you don’t, I’m going to take a bath!"

Gu Mian only reacted at this point, turned and looked at Gu Yao, "Oh, then I’ll take a quick shower, and you can bath after me."
