Chapter 242 Girlfriend

“Fuck, where the hell you get beer from?” Gu Shangyan asked him in shock.

“A man never kisses and tells, ” Lu Xuan winked at him. “Now tell this brother, what’s troubling you? You look like someone kissed the air out of your body.”

“Stop using that word, ” Gu Shangyan muttered.

“Which one?” Lu Xuan asked with a brow raise.

“The k-word, “Gu Shangyan murmured.

“Oh brother, don’t tell me you kissed someone, ” Lu Xuan teased him but when he looked at the expression on his brother’s face, he was shocked. He pulled him to sit on the surface with him. “Give me details now.”

“A man never kisses and tells, ” Gu Shangyan retorted.

“Who was she?” Lu Xuan groaned. “Do you like her?”

“I think I do like her, ” Gu Shangyan whispered as he looked at Lu Xuan in fear. “Xuan, what do I do? I think I really like her too much. Aunt and Uncle will kill me for getting into a relationship in Eleventh grade. I’m still a kid but…”

“You are right, ” Lu Xuan replied and took a sip of his drink. “It’s a rule at our house to not get into any romance before you pass high school but you are older and smarter. You aren’t like me and Xiulan. If you like her so much, don’t back out.” He patted Gu Shangyan’s chest and said, “Man up, brother. This little brother will help you in keeping your romance a secret. I will tell you about all the nooks and corners of the house where no one would catch you romancing on the phone.”

“Little shit, ” Gu Shangyan meant to be angry but he ended up smiling. “You better keep it a secret or I will snitch on you that you drink at this age. Oh, I might have caught you making smokes here and there.”

“You didn’t say a word to me or anyone, ” Lu Xuan said in surprise. “You know I smoke sometimes? You know I’m really trying to give up. From every day to once a week and now once a month. It’s not easy turning a good boy from a bad one.”

“Just smoke?” Gu Shangyan rolled his eyes. “Try not to use incognito mode on house wifi.”

“Now shut up, ” Lu Xuan groaned as he turned his eyes away and sipped from his glass. “I hate you technology guys.”

“Why don’t you learn it too?” Gu Shangyan asked. “Deleting history could be a motivation.”

Lu Xuan gave him a look and he burst into laughter.

“So, what’s the girl’s name? Shouldn’t I know my sister-in-law?” Lu Xuan raised his brow. He was really curious to know everything about this girl who could make this brother of his crazy after her.

“You know her, ” Gu Shangyan said in a soft tone. “It’s Yoona.”

“Woah, ” Lu Xuan exclaimed. He raised his glass and cheered, “To my brother’s first love and my unrequited love!”

Oh yeah, Lu Xuan just found a way to get Gu Shangyan to soften up and spill all the beans.

Alcohol.

That summer was dear to Gu Shangyan for the reason that he had found a family, love and his aim in life. It would be one of the most memorable summers of his life. All he knew at that moment was no matter how many summers would come and go, this one would be the dearest to his heart.

It was only after a month after Gu Shangyan and Yoona had started dating when she had told him.

“Shangyan, my parents are discussing that I should complete my junior year here in China, ” Yoona said with a small smile. “Dad says he wants to be grandpa during this last time. My grandpa is diagnosed with stage three lung cancer. The doctors said that he didn’t have much time left and my dad doesn’t want to leave. So, they are discussing my schooling arrangements.”

“Come to Jingyuan High, ” Gu Shangyan suggested to her. He held her hand tightly and said, “We will be together in school. I don’t have to wait for you at the library every day just to have five minutes with you.”

Yoona laughed. “You are so cute and cute boyfriends deserve a kiss, don’t they.”

“You stand still!” He warned her. “You can’t always steal kisses and then run away. I won’t let this happen. So, listen to what I have to say. Come to Jingyuan High.”

Yoona pouted but stood still. It was only with him that she could act all spoiled and girly. He pampered her to the moon. One day, she told him that if he pampered her too much, she would get spoiled and he said he was allowing her to act all spoiled with him. All these tiny and cute gestures made her fall for him all over again.

“It’s not that I don’t want to come to Jingyuan High,” Yoona said. “Our school has a different curriculum and it’s completely different from Jingyuan High. I faced the same problem as Xiulan. Weak Mandarin. I will not be able to fit into your school. So, our school has branches all over the country and it has one in this city too. It’s not a big school like yours but it’s good. I won’t be suffering. I will be studying according to the same curriculum and syllabus. And it’s an English medium school.”

“I let my hope rise in vain, ” Gu Shangyan muttered. “Nevermind, I will just make do with seeing you 5 minutes each day.”

“Oh honey, did I tell you that my school is two hours away from my house? I can’t spend much time with you. But I will call you daily, ” Yoona promised. “If we didn’t study hard, our parents might get suspicious of us. My parents are cool but they won’t be happy with my romantic life.”

Gu Shangyan had an urge to stomp on his feet but he only hugged her.

“You said you dont hug a girl or friend, “Yoona said with a laugh.

“But you are my girlfriend, ” Gu Shangyan retorted, making her blush.
