Chapter 267: You Like Me, It Has Nothing to Do With That Sentence

Chapter 267: You Like Me, It Has Nothing to Do With That Sentence

“But Qiuqiu,” Chu Ge said as he looked at the screen, his expression deepening, “Have you ever thought... If we delete this sentence, it’s not a big deal. But what about the next sentence?”

The next sentence...

If I’m looking for a man, why not the Creator God?

Qiu Wuji turned her head to look at Chu Ge’s profile.

If this sentence is deleted, will it have an impact on everyone’s present...?

Chu Ge looked at the screen in silence, and Qiu Wuji looked at him without speaking.

This sentence was still in the script.

Previously, Chu Ge definitely didn’t think about deleting something so important, and Qiu Wuji didn’t think too much and just followed the script.

But now, when they were discussing it, they both realized that without this cause-and-effect, this abrupt sentence, there would still be a flaw in the world.

Should they delete or modify it?

But should they delete it, or keep it and find another way to make it smoother?

After a few seconds, Qiu Wuji smiled and said, “If you don’t want to delete it... then don’t delete it, let’s make some changes.”

“No,” Chu Ge said calmly. “Delete it.”

Qiu Wuji’s smile faded, and she looked at him quietly. “If this sentence is deleted, I might not even have the intention to look for a man, let alone whether it’s you or not.”

Yes, the key point of this sentence was not the latter half but the first half.

The setting that Qiu Wuji, who had spent countless years in pure cultivation, “would look for a man” was opened by this sentence, and the latter half only reinforced the definition of what kind of man she would seek.

Without this sentence, she wouldn’t even have the intention to seek a man, let alone love. That was a distant possibility.

Chu Ge smiled faintly. “I can feel the truth between you and me. Since the word ‘love’ has been brought up, how could it be extinguished just because we delete that source? If we delete that sentence, and you stop liking me... then it means that the previous feelings were just something I wrote, not real... I wouldn’t want to obtain you in that way anyway.”

Qiu Wuji calmly replied, “At least you have me now. If it’s deleted, what if we lose what we have?”

Chu Ge’s gaze finally shifted from the screen to her face, and he said earnestly, “Then I’ll pursue you again.”

Qiu Wuji: “...”

“Even if I can’t win you over, I’ll pursue you for a lifetime,” Chu Ge said calmly. “Qiu Wuji, I’m determined to chase after you.”

Qiu Wuji frowned, “I might kill you.”

“How is that possible...” Chu Ge kissed her cheek. “Even if you were a little bit colder towards me, I would be very upset. But I... I just want the real you, and I know you only want to be your true self. Now, without that sentence, we don’t have to doubt anymore. This is the true us.”

In reality, that sentence still had an impact, at least it initiated the story arc. But as of today, the word “love” had already come into play, and it was impossible to change what had already happened. The little moments they had shared and their love for each other remained in their hearts, unrelated to that sentence.

Chu Ge felt a great sense of relief, as if they had crossed a hurdle that had been looming between them for a long time.

She likes me!

“Well,” Qiu Wuji responded in a low voice, “I haven’t thought about this for a long time. I felt that since it has come to this point, we should just enjoy the present. You’ve been so good to me, and in the end, does it really matter why it all started back then? But when you wanted to delete it, I was a bit nervous, yet also happy. Everyone wants to be their true selves, thank you.”

She paused for a moment, then chuckled, “Actually, upon further thought, I should be thankful for that sentence. Without it, how would I have known that there could be someone as wonderful as you in this world?”

Both of them were overwhelmed with emotions and, almost unconsciously, they kissed each other.

Chu Ge felt another kind of excitement.

Right now, they were in company... in the boss’s office.

Qiu Wuji was not only the female boss but also the chief editor...

And she was wearing a skirt with black stockings, glasses, and had an intelligent appearance... reclining on the dignified office desk, documents scattered around, her clothes disheveled.

Damn, he had convinced her to wear that skirt and stockings, all for the sake of this scene, right? He didn’t expect it to actually come true.

He was really riding the wave of fortune, and he had Qiuqiu, which was like having the world!

He also needed to thank the king of assists, Sister Mengmeng, for making her glasses look so good!

Sister Mengmeng, thank you.

Click! The door made a sound as Zhu Mengmeng poked her head in.

The air froze.

“You guys...” Zhu Mengmeng was amazed, “You came to the office for this on your first visit? I feel like I’m incompatible with you because I’m not perverted enough...”

Qiu Wuji angrily flipped Chu Ge over and hastily tidied up her clothes. “You don’t know how to knock! You’re dead, Mengmeng!”

“How was I supposed to know you two were so eager?” Zhu Mengmeng whispered, “We didn’t soundproof this place properly; you should be more careful.”

Chu Ge gritted his teeth.

Sister Mengmeng, I hate you.

Qiu Wuji put on her high heels, looked a bit flustered as she headed towards the door, but suddenly turned back, smiled at Chu Ge, and lightly tapped his head three times.

After those taps, her mood seemed to improve, and she walked away, swaying her hips with her hands behind her back.
