Chapter 106: Hope Shen Tong’s Dream Comes True

Chapter 106

From the moment they left until they settled the bill, Shen Tang felt somewhat melancholic.

She never expected to encounter such a situation right after coming out, especially the words of those people pointing and whispering, which lingered in Shen Tang's heart like a heavy boulder, causing a sense of stifling oppression.

Gu Huaian didn't know how to console her, so he silently accompanied her.

"Are we still going?" he asked.

Shen Tang gathered her spirits and replied, "Yes!"

"Why would I miss this opportunity after finally getting it?!" she exclaimed.

She wasn't sure if she was saying it for Gu Huaian to hear or for herself.

In the end, the two of them decided to go, fortunately without encountering any strange incidents as they proceeded.

Cen Songbai and Fu Junsheng were a pair of amusing fools, and they quickly managed to make Shen Tang forget about the previous unpleasantness. They secretly breathed a sigh of relief in a place where Shen Tang couldn't notice.

Sure enough, when the sister-in-law was happy, Big Brother Gu was happy too.

They were really an easygoing couple!

The four of them set up two tents, with each pair sharing one.

At first, Shen Tang felt a little uneasy, but then she thought to herself that both pairs had already slept together, so she might as well let go and not worry about what Gu Huaian might do.

In the evening, the mountain breeze was still chilly, so Gu Huaian handed Shen Tang a thick coat to wear.

Surprised, she asked, "You are so thoughtful!"

The two of them sat side by side, waiting for the meteor shower they had seen in the preview.

Gu Huaian reached out and embraced Shen Tang, leaning her against his shoulder.

They sat there quietly, not needing to say a word, but feeling very happy.

Cen Songbai and Fu Junsheng glanced at each other and imitated the posture of Shen Tang and Gu Huaian, sitting beside them.

Cen Songbai leaned against Fu Junsheng's shoulder and used a high-pitched voice to ask, "Junsheng, will you love me forever?"

Fu Junsheng responded in a falsetto, "Darling, why would you say such silly things? If I don't love you, who will I love?"

Shen Tang and Gu Huaian: "..."

"Could you two sit a little farther away?"

Suddenly, Gu Huaian regretted bringing these two party crashers along. They were absolutely clueless.

Upon hearing Gu Huaian's words, Cen Songbai dramatically flung himself into Fu Junsheng's arms and sobbed, "Wuwuwu, hubby, he wants us to go away!"

Fu Junsheng's expression suddenly changed, and he pushed Cen Songbai away and started retching.

"Yue~"

Cen Songbai: "..."

"Honey~"

"Shut up!"

"Cen Songbai, you're so disgusting. How did you manage to make that sound?"

[Oh my God, this couple is perfect for a novel. Can someone please write a book about them?]

[??? Why are you shipping everything?]

[Shipping everything keeps my nutrition balanced.]

Gu Huaian suddenly chuckled, and Shen Tang curiously leaned over to read the comments. "What's so funny?"

"Some people have keen eyes."

"Huh?"

"They say we have the perfect couple look."

Shen Tang also saw that comment. To be honest, she didn't think they looked alike at all.

If she had to say, maybe they both just looked good. Perhaps good-looking people have something in common?

Pfft!

With that thought, Shen Tang burst into laughter. She felt a bit shameless with that idea.

But she did feel that the difference between the two of them was too great. Some netizens were right in their analysis—they truly seemed like people from two different worlds.

"By the way, why did you choose me for a marriage agreement in the first place?"

Shen Tang was genuinely curious about this question.

She had forgotten a lot of the original book's plot and didn't know if it was mentioned there.

But since the original character was a cannon fodder, and Gu Huaian wasn't a significant male lead, it was unlikely to be written.

Gu Huaian never expected Shen Tang to suddenly ask this question. He pondered for a moment and replied, "To be honest, it was because of the pressure from my family that I had Cen assist me in selecting a suitable candidate for marriage. At that time, despite the scandals surrounding you, your background... indicated that you didn't have any troublesome relatives, and furthermore, you were more obedient to your manager's instructions."

In other words, it was because you lacked connections, independence, and were easier to control. Both of them understood this point.

Shen Tang felt frustrated, saying, "In the era of the internet, there's truly no privacy left."

"Cough, would you mind?" Gu Huaian asked nervously.

When he researched the information before, it should have been the original Shen Tang. She probably came over on the day they signed the contract.

At least, that was Gu Huaian's speculation, as he still remembered Cen mentioning that Shen Tang was acting strangely that day.

"I don't really mind," Shen Tang replied with a vein popping on her forehead.

If it weren't for signing the contract with her, who knows who would have enjoyed this great wealth and prosperity?

Wouldn't she have to remain poor forever?

Speaking of this, Shen Tang suddenly thought, now that she agreed to be Gu Huaian's girlfriend, does the agreement still hold?

Will she not receive her monthly payment anymore?

Shen Tang was greatly shocked and looked at Gu Huaian abruptly.

He wouldn't have gotten together with her just to save money, right?

Gu Huaian: "..."

You really are a clever little trickster!
