My Hidden Wife is Sweet

After the meal, the two of them sat there in silence, looking at the bright night sky.

No one said a word or suggested leaving.

It was not until the waiter informed them that the restaurant was closing, when they had to leave the dining room, that Gu Yun Che said, “I will take you home.”

“No thanks.” Luo Qianqian turned him down subconsciously.

“You have never been here before, so you will get lost easily,” Gu Yun Che said.

Luo Qianqian looked around and did not have the courage to turn him down.

She was in a foreign land and it was her first day here, so she might not be able to tell which street she was on, let alone on such a dark night.

There were no cars in the old district and they had to walk back. If they could not find the way, they would have to wait until dawn.

Gu Yun Che asked her where she lived and showed her the way.

On the way home, they were still silent.

When they came to Luo Qianqian’s apartment, Gu Yun Che took out his phone and asked, “Qianqian, if you think that our relationship troubles you, you can end it now.”

Luo Qianqian tried hard to hold back the tears. What he meant was that he was going to return the phone to her and cut off all contact with her.

“I never thought of taking back what I have given away.”

“But I will never answer your questions,” Gu Yun Che said.

She said that she did not know him well and he did not know her well enough.

But he would never tell her everything she wanted to know.

And he did not want to know anything more about her. He did not want to fall too deeply into her life.

“Can I know why?” Luo Qianqian’s voice was trembling and hoarse.

“Qianqian, I am not a good person. Everything you are curious about will not be a good answer.” Gu Yun Che looked at the Chinese girl who had tears shining in her eyes under the streetlights and sighed. “Not only now, but also in the future when you are very curious, I will never give you the answers you want to know. If this continues, you will only be disappointed like today again and again.”

“I... I am not disappointed.” Luo Qianqian denied it stubbornly.

Gu Yun Che chuckled and did not counter her.

“So, if you think that staying with me will only make you even more unhappier than before, then... everything should be cut off now.”

Luo Qianqian shook her head resolutely. “I think that cutting everything off is what makes me unhappy.”

Maybe for him, as long as he returned her phone, he would have nothing to do with her anymore.

But she would never hear from him again.

In this vast world, if she did not know where he was, she would be even more sad than she was now.

She had never expected that such a person would appear and make her so humble.

After meeting him, she seemed to have become less and less like herself.

Startled, Gu Yun Che asked, “Are you sure you don’t want it to end?”

“I will never ask such a question again.” Luo Qianqian tried to put down her disappointment and sound more relaxed.

She had known that she would not get the answers she wanted, but she still asked.

Therefore, she could not blame him for making her feel sad

Actually, he was very accommodating towards her mood.

Gu Yun Che put the phone back into his pocket. “It is late, go and rest.”

Luo Qianqian said, “You can go home too. I will go upstairs when you leave.”

Gu Yun Che said, “Go upstairs first.” Luo Qianqian said, “You can leave now.”

They two were in a deadlock and they smiled at each other.

“Go upstairs and I will leave too,” Gu Yun Che said.

“Okay.” Luo Qianqian agreed.

The two of them turned around, one entering the elevator and the other leaving.
