Adorable Wife: Addicted From the First Kiss

Chapter 23 Confession

“You.” Ge Muyu raised his hand and touched her hair. Then, he turned around and opened the suitcase. He took out an exquisite box and handed it to her. “When you turned 18, I couldn’t rush back to celebrate your birthday with you. On your 19th birthday, I was in closed-door training. This is the birthday gift I bought for you long ago but I only have the chance to give it to you now. Open it and see if you like it.”

There was some anticipation in Ge Muyu’s eyes and also, some unknown emotions that warmed Lu Youyou’s heart.

“There’s also a gift for me.” Lu Youyou smiled and held it in her palm. She stared at the box and said, “What about Qiuyang? Are our gifts the same?”

Ever since they were young, Ge Muyu had always given them the same gifts. This made Lu Youyou feel that Ge Muyu had treated her as a biological sister all these while and was vexed by it for many years. But now that she was getting married, those sad and sweet girlish thoughts would be hidden and gradually buried in her heart over time.

Ge Muyu shook his head. “This time, it’s different.”

Lu Youyou was stunned. Her fair hand gently pulled open the pink lace ribbon on the box. Inside was a pair of rings!

Lu Youyou froze!

“Brother Muyu… Do you know what it means to give a ring to a girl?” Lu Youyou held the ring box. Her delicate face turned pale and her tone trembled!

“Youyou!” Ge Muyu held her shoulders and looked at her seriously. “Let’s get engaged! You like me. Do you think you have been hiding it well? Every time you ask Qiuyang to ask about me, I know! You’re just like her. You’re silly and everything’s written on your face!” He had been her crush for many years, and he had always known it. It was just that Lu Youyou was too young, and he felt that it would be too beastly of him to be dating her at such a young age. So, he had been waiting, and had always protected and doted on her like how older brothers would protect their younger sisters. In fact, he had wanted to say it when she was 18, but something had happened at school at that time and he was held back. Now that she was 19, his heart ached when he heard from his sister over the phone on how she had been carefully asking about him recently.

He didn’t want Lu Youyou to continue letting her imagination run wild. He wanted her to know that he had always liked her too.

“I…” Lu Youyou was a little flustered. Another face appeared in her mind for no reason. It was the cold, pure, and perfect face of Fang Yichu! She subconsciously retreated, but was pulled back by Ge Muyu!

Ge Muyu looked at her nervously. “Youyou, I’ve been fantasizing about your expression when you received the ring. I thought you’d be surprised. You’d be so touched that you’d cry. You’d even throw yourself into my arms and hug me. But your reaction now is completely unexpected. What’s wrong with you?”

Lu Youyou looked at the rings. They were very beautiful and from their appearance, she knew that Ge Muyu must have spent a lot of money on them. However, she didn’t dare to accept them. Her mind was thinking instead, if she returned the betrothal gift to the Fang family now, would it still be possible for her and Ge Muyu?

But the answer was no!

The Fang family was powerful. Although the Lu family would benefit from the marriage between the two families, in reality, they had no choice. The Lu family had no choice! She could divorce Fang Yichu in the future, but she could not break off the engagement with Fang Yichu before the marriage. Otherwise, if the Fang family deemed that they had been humiliated, it would be difficult for the Lu family to survive in Sea City!

Moreover, if the Fang family knew that she had broken off the engagement for Ge Muyu, the Ge family would have a hard time in Jiang City as well!

Seeing the struggle between her brows and the tears flowing down her face, Ge Muyu quickly pulled her into his arms and kissed her forehead lovingly. “Youyou, don’t be afraid. What happened? Tell me, okay?”

Ge Muyu did not understand. She liked him, as did her parents, and his parents liked her. She was the daughter of the Lu family and had a good family background. He was the young master of the Ge family and could be considered rich as well. The two families knew each other well. Whether in terms of family background or financial standing, there was nothing to stop them. So why was she like this?

Lu Youyou felt his loving kiss. She looked up at him and saw his sincere eyes. Her heart ached even more. She thought of the man in the wheelchair and then, she looked at her first love who doted on her and had just confessed to her. Lu Youyou made up her mind and said nervously. “Brother Muyu… Can you… Wait for me for a few years?” Hearing this, Ge Muyu heaved a sigh of relief. “What are you thinking? Do you think I asked you to book a room for me and confessed to you because I wanted to do something to you?” He couldn’t help but pinch her face again. “I just want us to get engaged first, Youyou. I’ll listen to you.”
