After listening to her explanation, Zhao Congyi lowered his head and thought for a moment.

He didn't expect that Gu Wan was as naive as a child at times, but she saw these things very clearly and thoroughly.

He knew that Gu Wan was right, but after all, she was given by him... If he was not responsible, she would be the one who suffered in the end.

"What you said is indeed correct, but..."

Gu Wan reached out her hand to stop him from speaking. "I know you want to be responsible, but for now I can't get married just because of responsibility."

Zhao Cong put one hand in the pockets of his trousers. The wind gently blew the hair on his temples, making him look particularly lonely.

"So what are your plans?" He gave up trying to persuade her and wanted to listen carefully to her ideas.

"I don't know yet." Gu Wan pursed her lips and said truthfully.

She knew that her future didn't require her to stay in the countryside forever. If possible, she still hoped to return to her previous life in a small apartment.

Especially since she has a lot of money in this life, she can buy a house for herself to live in and another one to collect rent.

Anyway, she didn't need to spend a lot of money. The rent was enough for her to live comfortably. She knew that in this era, one could make a lot of money no matter what one did, but she just wanted to live comfortably.

"I know this is a bit sudden for you. He stopped and thought carefully before asking:

"Is it because you have someone you like?"

Zhao Congyi didn't know that he would be able to return to the city for the college entrance examination in a few years. He thought Gu Wan rejected him because she had someone she liked.

"No, I just don't want to get married so early, and for this reason, not just because of responsibility. I know you are a person with a strong sense of responsibility.

Maybe if you meet someone else, you will also take responsibility if something happens.

But for me, the other half I want is not someone who is bound together by responsibilities, but someone who shares the same values ​​and similar feelings.

Yes, you are indeed very good, but you can marry me today because of this responsibility, what about when you meet other people who need to take responsibility in the future?"

In short, the two of them don't have any feelings for each other yet, so they don't want to get married.

Zhao Congyi understood. He blinked his eyes and was stumped by her question for a moment.

He was seldom stumped by questions, but he was a very persistent person. Once there was a question he couldn't answer, he couldn't help but think about it, which made him unable to answer her question for a while, so he lowered his head and looked at his toes in silence for a long time.

Seeing him like this, Gu Wan thought that he had been persuaded by her.

He suppressed the discomfort in his heart and looked around Zhao Congyi.

I have to say that Zhao Congyi is indeed good-looking. He is 1.92 meters tall, with an upright and strong figure. When he is wearing clothes, he looks like an elegant lady and inviolable.

Even without clothes, he has tight muscles, broad shoulders and a narrow waist.

What's even more terrible is that although he often has a solemn and indifferent expression, as if he doesn't care about anything, once he raises his eyelids to look at people.

But those eyes were full of rebelliousness and affection.

These are two contradictory words, but in his eyes, they are very harmonious.

Gu Wan looked away, not daring to look into his eyes. Those eyes seemed to have hooks. Staring into his eyes always made her feel like she would easily fall into them and give up her principles.

"Well, if there's nothing else, I'll leave first?"

Gu Wan interrupted him with a low voice. Zhao Congyi shook his head and watched her wrinkle her nose, and the strands of hair that fell by her ears were blown to the corners of her mouth.

His fingertips moved, as if he had thought of something, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

He turned slightly and coughed softly:

"Okay, regarding the matter of the educated youth center, I need your cooperation. Find out the answer as soon as possible. It will be good for both you and me."

Gu Wan nodded without objection.

"Also, I will go back and seriously consider what you said. It's okay if you don't want me to be responsible, but I will still fulfill my obligations. You can come to me if you need anything. I will give you the address of my dormitory.

Before you think it through, I will definitely not cause you trouble in front of others, don't worry about that."

"I see that you are so open-minded. You shouldn't deliberately distance yourself from me because of this matter, right?"

She did think about it, but when someone asked her directly, she was embarrassed to say yes. Zhao Congyi also saw that she was not willing to say no, so he said that on purpose.

"You came here from such a far place to support rural construction, and you don't know anyone here. We met by chance. If you don't mind, just treat me as an ordinary friend or brother. If you have any questions or need help, you can come to me at any time."

Zhao Congyi was very humble, and his gentle and gentlemanly attitude slowly relaxed Gu Wan's tense heart.

Since they have said so, regardless of whether or not you will need help in the future, you should at least respond politely.

Although Gu Wan replaced the original owner, she started over again in this era.

But from beginning to end she never thought about integrating into this place, always isolating herself and treating herself as an outsider.

Zhao Congyi's measured behavior was like a breeze, making Gu Wan feel very comfortable with him.

"Thank you then. I'll leave first. I'm afraid someone will come looking for me later."

She didn't say whether she would look for her in the future, nor did she say that she wouldn't look for her. Zhao Congyi didn't expect to get a result today. He went from wanting to confirm the relationship with her at the beginning to wanting to have room for improvement between them.

Zhao Congyi did all these in an instant, following his own heart.

Zhao Cong nodded with the corners of his mouth slightly raised, and Gu Wan thought of a sentence: It is true that strangers are like jade, and this young master is unparalleled in the world!

This appearance made Gu Wan, who had seen many handsome celebrities in her previous life, feel her heart beating fast, but it was just an appreciation of beautiful things.

If you marry someone because you think they are pretty but don't know their character, and then find out they are not suitable after marriage, then the beauty that pleases your body and mind will become rotten.

It would be better to just quietly admire it from a distance from the beginning.

That's right, Gu Wan is a coward! She would rather never have something than have it and lose it, so she never shows her love or desire for anything.

This is also related to her living environment in her previous life. Her parents were too busy and never fulfilled their promises to her.

Expectations turned into disappointments over and over again, and she no longer had any expectations.

Tonight is mainly a welcome party. The formal arrangements will be announced at the meeting tomorrow morning.
