Gu mohan stared at ye zhiqiao in disbelief. He thought that ye zhiqiao would be happy and excited or shy when he said he was going to marry her. The worst result should be to think about it, but ye zhiqiao actually... Actually rejected it directly!
"Then... Then even if you don't have a good relationship with my parents, what does it have to do with us getting married? Anyway, you're going to live with me and little treasure in the future. If you're afraid that it won't look good when you get married, then we won't invite them or travel to get married. We can listen to you!" Gu mohan eagerly suggested his own solution.
But in ye zhiqiao's opinion, his method was not only childish, but could also have the opposite effect.
She still shook her head and said slowly, "Marriage is not a matter of two people. How can you go and make a scene with your family because of me? Even if you do, I won't agree."
"I don't want to be at loggerheads with them." Gu mohan frowned slightly and raised his voice, "I know you're afraid of affecting my relationship with my family. Then I promise I won't lose my temper in front of them. I'll endure everything. Is that all right?"
Ye zhiqiao turned her head away, "That's not what I meant. Some things can't be explained in a few words. Anyway, I don't want to cause you any trouble, so about getting married... Let's think about it in the long run."
Gu mohan was persistent. "What do you mean by' taking a long view'?" Are you rejecting me?"
"Yes." Ye zhiqiao nodded and admitted.
Gu mohan was stunned and his arm, which was trying to put on her shoulder, froze in midair. After a long time, he asked in a low voice, "Why on earth? Can you explain to me what's wrong and let me know?"
"Huh-"
Ye zhiqiao took a long breath, lowered her head and said, "Let's not talk about this, I... Tomorrow is yi chen's birthday, I will go back to my room to prepare a gift for him."
With that, ye zhi left the kitchen without looking back.
She walked quickly back to her bedroom, took out her already prepared drawing board and brush, and sat down by the french window to draw.
But when the tip of the pen fell on the drawing paper, his mind could not calm down.
The outline of the figure gradually appeared on the white paper, and then it was meticulous to the expression of the brows and eyes, but ye zhiqiao's mind was still entangled by gu mohan's words just now. When the sun was setting and the sky was full of rays, she looked at the portrait of Jinhui, which was clearly the face of yi chen, but ye zhiqiao did not know whether she was painting yi chen or gu mohan.
Fortunately, from that time until the next morning, the two of them sent little treasure to Qin Baiye's house and went to the party. Gu mohan never mentioned marriage again, and ye zhiqiao naturally did not ask again. The two of them maintained a tacit understanding that nothing had happened, and still looked after each other and talked and laughed.
The venue chosen for yi chen's birthday party was an island, so the two of them had to drive to the port first and then take a boat there.
The person who came to greet gu mohan and ye zhiqiao was yi chen, the leading actor of the day. He was just picking up two people, but he drove a leisure yacht over. According to ye zhiqiao's vision, there were at least two cabins on top. "
However, no matter how luxurious the boat was, no matter how advanced it was, it didn't make any sense for ye zhiqiao's seasickness.
The boat had only been sailing for less than two minutes, and it was still a long way from the island. Ye zhiqiao could not help but throw up the toilet.
Seeing that her face was still green after she had vomited in a daze and there was no sign of improvement, gu mohan suggested that she go to the deck to blow the wind. After all, standing in an open environment would reduce the symptoms of seasickness a lot.
Ye zhiqiao was really uncomfortable, so she ran up to the deck before gu mohan who flushed the toilet bowl. She leaned against the railing and gasped for air for a long time before she saw gu mohan slowly walking over with a bottle of water and a small box in her hand.
"Why did you come here?" She felt much better and asked casually.
"Yeah." Gu mohan's voice was muffled. He hesitantly handed over the small box in his hand and said, "Take some seasickness medicine."
Ye zhiqiao looked at gu mohan in surprise and asked, "You knew I was seasick, so you prepared ahead of time?"
Ye zhiqiao usually did not get carsick, but her fear of water was not small. She tried her best to stay away from the water since she was young, and she could not swim. She had never been on a boat with gu mohan, so naturally she had no chance to mention it to him, but how did he know?
Hearing her question, gu mohan's face turned a little ugly. At this time, yi chen just walked out and said to ye zhiqiao honestly, "Young master yi asked me to give you the medicine. I think... He should have prepared it in advance."
In fact, yi chen gave him the medicine because he wanted him to give it to ye zhiqiao in his own name. He didn't want to take this opportunity to win ye zhiqiao's favor. Gu mohan could not accept that others would pave the way for him. Ye zhiqiao was his woman, and it was his mistake not to take good care of ye zhiqiao.
"I see." Ye zhiqiao was a little embarrassed, but she still thanked yi chen who walked over, "Thank you, yi chen. Not only did you come to pick us up personally, but you also prepared so well."
Yi chen had already heard gu mohan's words and said, "It's okay. It's all right. I wanted to find a hotel or a resort to have a good time, but they had to come to this island. There were always some elderly uncles and aunts, or people with seasickness like you who couldn't get used to it, so I had people prepare seasickness medicine on every ship."
A few words not only eased the embarrassment between the three of them, but also maintained a polite distance between themselves and ye zhiqiao.
Ye zhiqiao understood that he was trying to get out of trouble, and she was immediately moved. After taking the seasickness medicine, he thanked yi chen again, "I have been rude to you before. You can be friends with us and help us. Thank you very much."
Yi chen waved his hand and then turned to gu mohan with a friendly smile.
"That's right!" Ye zhiqiao suddenly remembered something and pointed to the cabin and said, "I have prepared a present for you. You must be very popular today. I may not be able to catch your figure when I get to the island. Can I bring it to you now?"
Yi chenxu did not expect ye zhiqiao to prepare a gift for him. He was flattered and asked, "Really? That's great!"
Ye zhiqiao nodded and lifted her legs to walk towards the cabin, but was pulled by gu mohan behind her.
"You just felt better, so don't run around. I'll get it for you."
"No need." Ye zhi coincidentally glanced at yi chen and refused, "The gift I prepared is better for you. It doesn't matter."
As she spoke, she brushed away Mohan's hand and turned to walk inside.
