It was as if they were just two ordinary friends who hadn't seen each other for many years and were too embarrassed to find the right words to say.
The two stood at the door of the room and looked at each other. Chu Shixiu looked at her and seemed to have a lot to say. In the end, he just politely held the open door and said, "Come in."
His voice was as soft as if he was afraid of scaring her.
His tone became cautious.
"Yeah." Gu Xiaoai nodded and walked into the room from him.
This is a hotel suite with a warm and elegant environment, double bed, sofa set, grand piano, floor-to-ceiling heavy curtains...
Gu Xiaoai sat down on the sofa with some restraint. Chu Shixiu took out a towel from the bathroom and handed it to her.
"Thank you." Gu Xiaoai thanked her politely and wiped her hair with a dry towel.
"Ai Ai, don't be so polite to me." Chu Shixiu said with a wry smile, his voice moving and comfortable.
Hearing this, Gu Xiaoai's heart trembled.
They were... indeed too polite to each other.
Chu Shixiu did not leave, but sat directly on the armrest of her sofa, crossing his long legs, lowering his head and watching her quietly, and occasionally brushed the hair from her face while she was wiping her hair.
He is so attentive and gentle as he is.
Looking at him so closely, Gu Xiaoai realized that he was actually different from before.
After her eyebrows grew longer, Chu Shixiu's facial features became more three-dimensional than when she was a child, she was taller and straighter, her temperament was as gentle as jade, and the mint aroma exuding from her body fascinated her.
Neither of them spoke anymore, and the empty room suddenly became suffocating and awkward.
Gu Xiaoai wiped her hair vigorously to hide her frantic heartbeat.
Chu Shixiu's eyes were always fixed on her, looking at her carefully.
Although she was well dressed today, her image was terrible and she was embarrassed.
After being silent for a long time, Gu Xiaoai finally plucked up the courage to speak...
"how is your day?"
"How are you doing?"
The two said in unison, and then the huge hotel room fell silent again.
But Chu Shixiu laughed, with a gentle smile on his heroic face. He stretched out his hand to rub her heart and said in a heart-stopping voice, "I'm fine. How about you?"
I'm fine, I just miss you very much.
I'm thinking about how you are doing, and whether you can get back on your feet after such a big thing happened in your family.
Looking at her outfit today, she is no different from the little princess she used to be.
