However, after getting used to life in the Gu family residence, Chu He realized that she had developed certain attachments to the Gu family. This kind of emotion was too subtle. If one was not attentive, it would easily go undetected.

It was the feeling of home. The warmth of home.

She had never felt this way before. Even though she did not accept Gu Jinglian wholeheartedly and only treated him as Baby Chu’s father, a family member, but not a husband.

However, during that trip where she had risked everything and sneaked into North Africa to look for Gu Jinglian amidst the gunfire, on the edge of life and death, in the chaos of war, she realized that she had to re-evaluate her feelings for Gu Jinglian.

Was it love?

Was it a mere liking?

If she didn’t love him, if she didn’t like him, why would she have disregarded her own life to locate him?

Was it purely because she did not want Baby Chu to lose his biological father?

She could not bear to see Baby Chu suffer the pain of being separated from his flesh and blood?

More than once, she had asked herself as she lay in the darkness, would she have gone to North Africa to look for the man if it had not been for Baby Chu? The answer was a resounding “yes”. Even if she had to face death, she would find him and bring him home!

Although she had never liked a man or had ever been in a relationship, and had no idea what it felt like to like or love someone, her understanding of love was that she would not leave nor want to leave that person.

“Like” she must like him! Otherwise, why would she risk her life for such a

Chu He recognized her feelings and her heart. Hence, when Gu Jinglian asked her this, she admitted that she liked him!

She had always been a woman who dared to love and hate with any regards to the principle that men should take the initiative and women should be reserved. If she liked someone, that was an unchangeable fact. And she would say it as it were, there was nothing to hide!

In one’s life, one should not make a choice or say things that one would regret.

There also shouldn’t be any regret over what one had said or done!

“Yes I do!” She smiled calmly. ‘Gu Jinglian, listen carefully. I, Chu He, do like you.”

Even though he had hurt her before, he had also brought her joy. Like, had nothing to do with love or hate.

Gu Jinglian was rather taken aback by her answer, but he smiled! He understood her personality. She was open and honest and was not someone who would hide her feelings! She was straightforward and liberal.

This was also… one of the reasons why he liked her.

‘What about you? You haven’t answered my question.”

Chu He raised her eyebrows. “I don’t like us getting married and holding a ceremony just for the sake of Baby Chu’s feelings. You either like me, or don’t. You aren’t even afraid of death, surely you have the courage to answer this question?

Gu Jinglian asked, “Is the answer that important?”

“Of course.”

Gu Jinglian laughed when he heard this! He was no different from Chu He.

He grew up in an emotionless environment that gave him a cold personality. He handled relationships lightly and was the sort of person who would stop at nothing until he achieved his goal.

He had had countless women, but Chu He was the most special one. She was a woman, but her personality was tougher than a man’s. She didn’t know how to be elegant and beautiful, nor did she know how to be cute and dependent.

Sometimes, she was even very violent, and her punches and kicks were even tougher than those of a man. In serious situations, she was on par with him, she was not inferior to any man..
