Chapter 135: Walking Hormones, Lu Zhiyuan
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
At noon, after Gu Ci finished class, she looked for Gu Ziyu to have lunch together. Gu Ziyu was still angry, and Zhou Jinjin watched with amazement, “Cici, what did you do to provoke Ziyu?”
After all, Gu Ziyu always listened to Gu Ci and followed her every word.
Gu Ziyu ate without expression, appearing emotionless. Even when he wasn’t performing, he had a poker face. No matter how Gu Ci tried to coax him, she couldn’t succeed. Gu Ci sighed, looking up to the sky, “I’m really having a hard time!”
Her husband kept saying he didn’t love her and that his heart belonged to someone else.
Her son was even throwing tantrums at her!
In the afternoon, Lu Zhiyuan actually came to accompany her to class. His eyelids were dark and tired. Gu Ci’s heart softened, “Did you not sleep well last night?”
“Yeah!” Lu Zhiyuan sounded a bit hoarse. Third Master kept him up all night, leaving him mentally exhausted.
“Go home and rest. You don’t have to accompany me to class.”
“If I fall asleep, 1 won’t be able to see you.” Lu Zhiyuan’s awareness was becoming hazy. He lay on his side, still affectionately hooking his fingers with hers. Gu Ci’s heart trembled.
That’s right, if he falls asleep, he’ll wake up to Third Master and won’t see her.
Gu Ci intertwined her fingers with Lu Zhiyuan’s, flipping through her book and taking notes. Her heart felt both tender and sour. Third Master had someone else in his heart, but Lu Zhiyuan was focused solely on her.
Two consecutive classes passed, and Gu Ci didn’t change her seat. During the break, she received a text message from Gu Ziyu. It was a picture taken by a classmate and posted on the school forum.
While Lu Zhiyuan was asleep, holding her hand, she was still doing her homework.
Alumni: The campus belle is really in love with Lu Zhiyuan. She would rather take notes with one hand than let go.
Gu Ziyu: My parents have true love, and I’m expendable. 1 understand.
Gu Ci was speechless.
The obedient baby had started to become moody toward her.
Gu Ci: You are my only baby.
Gu Ziyu: That’s not for certain. You have other babies too.
Gu Ci: In my whole life, you are my only child.
All her maternal love, she wanted to give it all to Ziyu.
Gu Ziyu was difficult to appease: “This was Dad’s decision. Mom is lying to me again.”
Gu Ci didn’t know what to say.
Baby, you’re really hard to please!
Lu Zhiyuan accompanying Gu Ci to class had become some sort of scenery. The students from the Medical School were no longer surprised and had accepted that they were dating. Because of Lu Zhiyuan, Gu Ci had become an unattainable beauty in A University, someone to admire from afar, the untouchable campus belle.
In the second class, there was a lab session. Gu Ci and a few other girls formed a group to do the experiment. Lu Zhiyuan found it boring and secretly left the classroom. He Miaomiao teased, “Gu Ci, Lu Zhiyuan is so attached to you.”
“Yeah, he even holds our hand when he’s asleep.” Liu Yu smirked.
Gu Ci smiled. After the experiment, she sent a text message to Lu Zhiyuan, but there was no response. While carrying her books, she passed by the basketball court and found a crowd of people. Boys and girls formed a wall, and a girl was shouting Lu Zhiyuan’s name. Gu Ci understood what was happening and walked over. When the students saw her, they made way for her.
Lu Zhiyuan was playing basketball with a group of students. The bright sunshine shone on him, full of youthful spirit and vitality. He was in excellent physical condition, with great jumping ability. His handsome shooting style caused the students to scream in excitement.
His posture, appearance, smile, and innate charm attracted everyone’s attention.
Gu Ci’s heart was pounding. Men always loved eighteen-year-old girls, and women always loved eighteen-year-old boys. Fresh and bright, like a beam of light, he was the only light in her dark life.
Her divine being!
Liu Yu and He Miaomiao pretended to hold their hearts and exclaimed at his handsomeness. Their boyfriends were forgotten, and Lu Zhiyuan high-fived his teammates after shooting a basket. Sweat dripped from his hair into his eyes. He lifted his shirt to wipe off the sweat, revealing his toned eight-pack abs and a superior V-line, which caused the female students to squeal like groundhogs.
He Miaomiao blushed, “1… I’m guilty. My face is red.”
Liu Yu teased, “Doesn’t your boyfriend have abs?”
“He only has belly fat.”
A nearby female classmate exclaimed, “I’m not envious of Gu Ci’s beauty. 1 envy her good fortune. Lu Zhiyuan is a hormone machine on the move.”
Gu Ci gaped.
She watched the girls taking pictures with their phones, furrowing her brows. Unfortunately, Lu Zhiyuan was unaware of his own allure, casually wiping off the sweat and immediately starting the second round.
After an exhilarating basketball game, with sweat covering Lu Zhiyuan’s body, he once again lifted his shirt to wipe off the sweat. The female students offered water to the team members.
Whether in high school or university, there was an ambiguous tradition: when the person of interest was sweating on the basketball court, one could offer them a bottle of water.
Lu Zhiyuan wiped his sweat and saw Gu Ci. He waved at her, and she smiled back. Lu Zhiyuan went to get his jacket.
A tall and delicately made-up girl, encouraged by her classmates, approached Lu Zhiyuan while holding a bottle of water. Blushing, she handed it to him, “Senior Lu, please have some water.”
Lu Zhiyuan glanced at her, keeping a distance, and politely declined, “Thank you, but there’s no need.”
“Why? You obviously didn’t bring any water.” The girl gathered her courage once again.
Lu Zhiyuan held his jacket and smiled as he walked toward Gu Ci. The path beneath his feet seemed to be paved with flowers.
His appearance was as beautiful as jade, his figure as graceful as a pine tree, as he resolutely walked toward the person he loved.
“I have water!”
The girl couldn’t accept it, feeling indignant, but could only watch as Lu Zhiyuan took Gu Ci’s thermos and drank her warm water. He winked at her, “Junior sister, do you think the senior is handsome when playing basketball?” “Very handsome!” Gu Ci glanced behind him, “The junior sisters were smitten.” “A strong sour smell!” Lu Zhiyuan lowered his head and smelled her hair, “Are you jealous?”
Before Gu Ci could reply, the girl approached them, “Lu Zhiyuan, 1 really like you.”
The onlookers whispered among themselves. The girl wasn’t afraid of embarrassment, and her best friend exclaimed, “Good for you, my dear, go for it!”
“I don’t know you!” Lu Zhiyuan said plainly, maintaining his politeness.
“I know, to you, I’m a stranger. 1 don’t expect anything, I just want you to know that I really like you,” the girl confessed with deep affection.
Lu Zhiyuan’s smile turned slightly melancholic.
Standing by his side, Gu Ci’s voice was cold but domineering, “Classmate, he is mine!”
For the first time in public, she declared her sovereignty, not allowing others to pry. Lu Zhiyuan belonged to her alone, in mind and body!
No one was allowed to covet him!
She couldn’t stand Lu Zhiyuan’s constant stream of admirers, she didn’t like people’s lingering gazes on him, and she despised it even more when others fantasized about him.
But he was a public figure, and she had to accept it.
“Lu Zhiyuan has already denied any relationship between you two.” The girl stubbornly said, “Everyone can pursue him.”
Gu Ci nodded and asked Lu Zhiyuan, “Is that true?”
Lu Zhiyuan smiled softly, taking her book and saying resolutely, “In this world, only Gu Ci can pursue me.”
Regardless of how enchanting or captivating others were, he only wanted Gu Ci! Even though he knew he wasn’t worthy of her, his heart was set on her, his mind captivated..
