Chapter 20 Sweets (Part )

"This is a hot-selling item in their store. I'll treat you to it." Chu Yan smiled and called out, "Cousin."

Gu Chuan sat opposite her. He didn't remember how he walked in. He just saw her and greeted her. When he came to his senses, he was sitting here.

He didn't know if it was because too much time had passed that he had forgotten what kind of person Chu Yan was. At least in his opinion, Chu Yan was not someone who would remain friends with her ex-boyfriend after breaking up. But now her smile was so innocent that he actually had the illusion that he was not familiar with her.

We are all adults now and should learn to move forward.

Gu Chuan realized that this time when he saw Chu Yan, his feelings were even more indescribable than the last time he saw her at the engagement party. He lowered his eyes, tasted the Black Forest cake, and said: "It's sweet."

Chu Yan was stunned for a moment, then quickly picked up another cake box and looked at it, then apologized and said, "I took the wrong one. I gave you the one with extra sugar."

"It's okay." Gu Chuan took a sip of coffee and said calmly: "I like sweet."

Chu Yan immediately smiled and said, "Shen Xing also likes sweets. You two really are cousins."

Shen Xing likes desserts?

Gu Chuan still remembers that when Shen Xing was a child, he smeared the cake all over other people's faces on his birthday. When asked, he found out that he didn't like such sweet things.

Gu Chuan stroked the rim of the cup with his fingers and asked, "Don't you like sweet things?"

"I don't like it, and I don't hate it either."

He added: "But you bought something too sweet."

"Because Shen Xing likes it, I want to try more and like the same things as him."

Gu Chuan's throat tightened, "Is that so."

Not right.

In the past, when he and Chu Yan walked together, she would always ask for sugar in the food she ordered, and then she would order the same thing for him, or she would throw the food she couldn't finish to him.

She obviously doesn't like sweets, so why did she order so many sweets?
Gu Chuan lowered his brows and took another sip of unsweetened coffee. It was a little bitter, but it overwhelmed the sweetness of the cake he had tasted before.

After a while, he asked her, "What do you want?"

Chu Yan was a little confused, "What do you mean?"

"Is there anything you want?" Gu Chuan thought for a while and said, "Money, jewelry, a house... or anything else, as long as I can afford it, I won't refuse it."

Chu Yan asked uncertainly: "This is... do you want to prepare a wedding gift for me and Shen Xing in advance?"

Gu Chuan's lips moved slightly, "No."

She didn't know if there were any rules for giving gifts to a rich young master like Gu Chuan who came from an old-fashioned family. She shook her head and said, "Thank you, I don't need you to give us anything."

"It's not you." He corrected, "It's you."

Chu Yan smiled, "That's even more unnecessary. If there's anything I want, Shen Xing will buy it for me."

Gu Chuan was silent for a moment, then asked: "Do you love Shen Xing?"

"Yes." Chu Yan answered calmly without any hesitation.

"You guys..." Gu Chuan paused and asked: "How did you get together?"

Fang Fang hurried over, "Yan Yan!"

Then, Fang Fang looked at Gu Chuan and said coldly: "Why are you here?"

Fang Fang just went to the bathroom, and when she came out she saw Chu Yan and Gu Chuan sitting there. She felt like the sky was falling, so she ran over quickly.

Chu Yan said: "Fang Fang, he is Shen Xing's cousin. I saw him passing by, so I invited him to sit for a while." When Gu Chuan heard Chu Yan introduce herself, the sense of disobedience became stronger. He raised his eyes and looked at Chu Yan's expression more and more carefully.

Chu Yan introduced him to Gu Chuan again, "This is my friend and high school classmate, Fang Fang."

The blood in Gu Chuan's body seemed to freeze at that moment. He stood up and truly felt the strangeness in Chu Yan's eyes towards him. All the things that were wrong seemed to be solved by an incredible answer.

Fang Fang quickly said to Chu Yan: "I heard from the boss that they will release a new product in a few days. Isn't Shen Xing going to be back in a few days? Do you want to reserve one so that you can eat it when Shen Xing comes back."

"Okay." Chu Yan took a step forward with great interest, then turned around and looked at Fang Fang and Gu Chuan with some concern.

Fang Fang smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Gu and I have met several times before, so this is a good opportunity to catch up."

Chu Yan was a little surprised that they knew each other, but thinking that Fang Fang's husband was an elite in investment banking, maybe they had met because of work, she didn't think much about it.

Fang Fang saw Chu Yan went to the counter to talk to the boss. She looked at Gu Chuan again with a much uglier expression, "Stay away from her."

Gu Chuan said: "She doesn't remember me."

It is a certainty, not a doubt.

Fang Fang knew that Gu Chuan was not stupid and would definitely find the problem. She sat on the chair and formed a confrontation with Gu Chuan who was sitting down. "It's a good thing that she forgot about you. She is very happy now. You are also engaged and will get married soon. Gu Chuan, don't go into it. Isn't it better for you?"

Gu Chuan asked: "Why did she lose her memory? Is there something behind Shen Xing being with her?"

He has always been a perceptive person. Fang Fang felt a headache, but she felt even more impatient. "Chu Yan's affairs have nothing to do with you now. You are not qualified to ask. Gu Chuan, if you still have a conscience, don't mention the past and don't destroy her peaceful and happy life now."

Chu Yan stood at the counter, flipping through the album handed over by the boss. She imagined what kind of dessert Shen Xing liked, with a smile in her eyes. Finally, she pointed to a pink cake that looked like a pig squatting on the ground and said with a smile: "I want this one, with more sugar."

In the dim yellow light, the ring on her finger glowed.

Gu Chuan stood up, his black eyes fixed on the ring on her finger.

That day, he came back late again and she was not at home. Gu Chuan rushed to Lover's Lake and saw the girl sitting on the grass in a daze.

They seemed to say something, and then after crying and shouting, she curled up her body, sat on the grass and trembled slightly.

He felt tired for a short time, so he held her in his arms and told her gently, "Yan Yan, we will not break up."

The box that had been prepared long ago was hidden in his pocket. The moment he took it out and opened it, the silver ring became a bright color in the dim environment.

She wiped away her tears, looked at the ring, and then stared at him blankly.

He laughed, held her face, and gave her gentle kisses. "Marry me, and I will give you the most grand wedding."

Did that happen two years ago, or three years ago?
Gu Chuan doesn’t remember clearly.

Chu Yan returned all the things he had given her in the past seven years, except this ring.

He thought she had lost the ring, but it was still on her finger.

A person's memory can change, but habits are difficult to change.

Shen Xing doesn't like sweets.

It was only today that Gu Chuan found out that Chu Yan also didn’t like sweets.

The one with the sweet tooth has always been him.

Gu Chuan inexplicably felt his throat tighten, his mouth dry, and the blood in his body became restless with the unbalanced beating of his heart.

Chu Yan, who has not forgotten the past, still loves him?
