Chapter 646: Kuò Ruǎn

fter she finished her call, she grabbed her bag and headed out. 。Where to, I'll take you there. 。Knowing she was going to look for Song Jingye, he wanted to accompany her, not wanting them to meet alo...His arrival caused many students to become distracted and steal glances at him. Although these students had previously heard various versions of the stories circulating in school, they were more rational. After all, knowing all three parties involved, they would rather believe Mr. Gu than Mu Han.

Seeing Lu Kuò chase after Teacher here now, everyone can't help but smile knowingly. It feels a bit sweet, doesn't it

Seeing his exhausted face, she couldn't bear it:

"Let me take you to the guesthouse first."

Lu Kuo glanced at Yuan Liguo who was measuring not far away, gritted his teeth and said: "No, I'll wait for you to finish class and go back together."

The young master still put on a facade of aloofness.

"Then, please go ahead." Ruanruan turned around and once again wove between the students, guiding them seriously.

Yuan Li Ge mainly came to collect materials. He buried himself in work and when he came back, he was also surprised to see Lu Kuo, but then he greeted him.

Lu Kuo also put on a polite response, then asked, "Teacher Yuan, you're not in the same department as my Ruan Ruan, are you"

Where is my Ruanruan

This successfully diverted all the students’ attention. Everyone’s hands stopped on their papers, ears perked up, and they forgot to write. Ruan Ruan was caught off guard as well.

Yuan Lige answered, "Yes, I am from the Architecture Department."

"Ruan Ruan brought her students here for sketching, so what about you" Lu Kuo sat on a folding chair, his two long legs casually resting on the ground, forming a vertical shape. Even though he was sitting, his aloof demeanor was still undeniable.

Yuan Lige ignored the provocation in his tone and replied, "I'm here on business, fate brought me to meet Teacher Gu coincidentally."

Lu Kuo stood up from his chair, taller than Yuan Ligao.

A little taller, the two stood in stark contrast. Lu Kuo was outgoing and flamboyant, while Yuan Liguo was more reserved and introspective.

"Ru'an, come."

Ruan Ruan seemed startled. He added, "Didn't you say you would accompany me back to the homestay first"

Ruan Ruan glanced at the students who were pretending to draw, Lu Kuo, if you don't leave, they probably won't be able to focus on their drawing anymore.

Before she could speak, Lu Kuo spoke first: "May we borrow your Teacher Gu for a while No objections"

He was already pretty close with these students, and they all chorused, "No problem, no problem, Senior, you lead the way."

Lu Kuo just swaggered away with their Teacher Gu.

Because it was outdoor sketching, it was a little more casual than being in the classroom. And since I had already gone over the important points with the students, Ruanruan temporarily left to send Lu Kuo back first.

After slipping out of sight from the crowd, Ruan Ruan's lips curled up involuntarily. She then asked, "How did you get here"

Lu Kuo stopped and said, "What do you think"

He didn't speak, and she didn't reply. She quickened her pace, leading the way ahead. Lu Kuo grabbed her arm, preventing her from moving forward. He had been holding back all night long, and it was unbearable to keep it inside.

"Why is Yuan here too"

"He had a project on micro-architecture, so he came over and happened to run into me."

"Ruan Ruan, you really think that's such a coincidence The same time, the same place"

His tone was too harsh, and Ruan Ruan's previously soaring spirits slowly sank.

“What if it’s not a coincidence I can’t help that I have to go on a business trip with my colleagues” Ruanruan rarely had sharp edges, but she almost blurted out: “What right do you have to ask this”

But she didn't want to dwell on the issue of identity anymore.

, so changed the question.

"So you took a business trip to come here with him" Lu Kuo also felt crazy. Why did he ask that It instantly made things more awkward between them.

"I'm on a business trip. There's no need to hide it from you, but there's no need to tell you about it either." Her words were colder, more distant.

Given their current relationship, she no longer wants to blindly maintain a facade of harmony. That would only keep them stuck in place, meaningless and draining.

As expected, the sentence extinguished all of Lu Kuo's arrogance. He walked silently towards the guesthouse.

The car he rented was parked outside the guesthouse. He didn't have much luggage, just a carry-on bag thrown in the back seat. Ruanruan had been angry with him because of his questioning of her relationship with Teacher Yuan just now. Now, seeing his car and thinking about him taking an early morning flight and driving for another three hours to get here, she felt both sorry and guilty.

"Actually, you could take the high-speed train, it would be more convenient. Taking a plane would be out of the way." She softened her tone.

"You can take the plane or the high-speed rail, I don't mind." Lu Kuo also retorted angrily.

But regretted it immediately after.

Ruan Ruan got her bag from the back seat and went straight to the front desk of the guesthouse to check in. She didn't want to argue with him anymore.

Neither of them spoke a word along the way.

Until he reached her room door: "Ruan Ruan, I'm sorry. I didn't come here to argue with you."

"I know."

Lu Kuo stood at the door, not going in, but suddenly pulled Ruan Ruan into his arms and hugged her. Ruan Ruan struggled for a moment, but he hugged her tighter:

"Don't move, just like that. I want to have a good talk with you."

I'm afraid if I hold her like this, she won't listen and will leave.

"Ruanruan, "

I am very lost. I don't know what love really is. I see Zhuo Yu-an's unwavering love for Ting Lan, and Gu Ruan Dong's passionate and sincere love for Yao Yao, but what about you It seems like nothing to me.

"Ruan Ruan, I think I really don't understand love. You make me wonder if I love you or not. I don't know, so I don't want to say the word 'love' casually. It wouldn't be responsible of me towards you."

Ruan Ruan's heart suddenly ached like being pricked by a needle. Before, she had held onto hope, hoping that he had already fallen in love with her. So when she heard him say it with his own mouth, she still felt a sharp pain and a chill run through her.

She wanted to gently push him away, but she couldn't. He was holding her very tightly.

She just said, "It's okay, Lu Kuo, I know you tried your best."

Lu Kuo shook his head, his voice no longer as loud and vibrant as before, but rather raspy.

“But I know it’s not like that. When I don't see you, I think about you; when I see you being bullied and wronged, I feel heartache; when I see you sitting with other men, I get jealous to the point of madness. Ruan Ruan, what exactly is love Does it have to be intense and passionate”

I'm also lost, why has a love problem suddenly become a philosophical one

She answered cautiously, "Perhaps that's love too, just not enough yet"

What does it mean to love enough

“It’s enough love, you probably can’t help but blurt out ‘I love you,’ and you can’t help but fantasize about a happy life together in the future. You even imagine bringing life into the world together, with your other half included in all your future plans. At least, that’s how I think it is.” Ruan Ruan answered seriously, her heart filled with sadness.

Lùkuò held her, for some unknown reason,

Hearing her words, he suddenly laughed.

He let go of her, clasped his hands on her shoulders, and suddenly smiled down at her.less. 。He always thought she was angry because he had dragged the Lu family into this, so out of guilt, he focused all his energy on dealing with it. 。He didn't understand until morning what the child...
