"...Ms. Liu is very grateful to the sanitation workers in the community for helping her find her pet dog, and she promised to help as much as she can..."

At home, Aunt Zhao was listening to the news and humming a ditty while preparing dinner. Turn off the fire and lean over to have a look.

"Hey, why did you come back so early today?" Aunt Zhao smiled happily when she saw the room they entered together.

But Ji Ruan's complexion was not very good, and Xiao Gu's expression was also very serious. He hugged Xiao Ruan's shoulder and bowed his head while saying something.

Aunt Zhao asked in a low voice, "What's the matter?"

Gu Xiuyi smiled: "It's okay, Aunt Zhao, why don't you cook dinner a little lighter, he's not feeling well, let's go up and talk about something."

"...Eh, good."

Aunt Zhao gradually lowered her hand holding the spatula, looking at the backs of the two people walking away on the stairs, her face was full of doubts.

The study door was gently closed, and Ji Ruan went straight to the small sofa and sat down.

Gu Xiuyi took a glass of warm water and stuffed it into Ji Ruan's hand: "Drink some first, your mouth is dry."

This glass of water also gave Ji Ruan a little buffer time, he drank half of the glass slowly, thinking about where to start.

Gu Xiuyi spoke first.

"I like you."

"Cough!"

Ji Ruan spilled water on the floor, covering her mouth and coughing.

"Ji Ruan?!"

Gu Xiuyi immediately patted his back, and wiped his hands with paper, "Blame me, blame me, we should talk about it after you finish drinking."

Ji Ruan didn't choke seriously, but was more shocked than he could have imagined in his dreams. Gu Xiuyi would be so direct.

It was the first time he had seen the way of talking in the opening confession in such a long life.

And Gu Xiuyi simply learned the lesson from the last "Today's Statement" incident.

He felt that what Li Suian said was quite right. Even if the contents of some words were all the same, the order in which they were spoken could have a decisive impact on the outcome of the incident.

That day, if he first expressed his feelings to Ji Ruan and then talked about the law, he would not make Ji Ruan cry. Maybe he would have kissed Ji Ruan long ago instead of waiting until now.

When Gu Xiuyi recalled afterwards, he regretted it every day and night.

So he also knew that when chatting with Ji Ruan, he must put the most important thing in the first sentence, so as not to poke Ji Ruan's tears in the next sentence, and cry so hard that he can't hear anything else.

Although it doesn't seem to be too successful now.

He followed Ji Ruan's back, cautiously: "Have you slowed down baby, are you not feeling well?"
