“So, you’ve been staying here all this while?”
“Yes . ”
While using the kettle to boil water in a practiced manner, he said, “Initially, I ran into many places—Spain, Rome, South America, Barcelona . Later, I came here and felt that people needed me here . ”
He was making coffee for her . “This place doesn’t need me as a celebrity or me as the Third Young Master of the Gu family, but me as a person . I stayed behind to teach them English . All of them like me a lot . Furthermore, their oral communication is improving . They’ve also fallen in love with learning the language . It makes me feel a much greater sense of accomplishment than getting some Oscar award . ”
Su Wan said, “Thank you . Sure . Can you bring me to look around?”
“Of course . ”
Gu Jingyu led her out .
Outside, Gu Jingyu brought Su Wan together with him to the classroom .
“Look, this is where we have lessons . ”
“Look, that area at the back is the sports field . ”
“They usually play soccer there . ”
The moment Su Wan entered, many kids ran out .
“Hi, Teacher Bantu . ”
“Teacher Bantu, are you here to play soccer with us?”
“Teacher Bantu, who’s the beautiful elder sister beside you?”
“Ah, is she your girlfriend?”
“Is she your wife? Hahaha . ”
Su Wan froze . She did not expect everyone to see her that way .
Su Wan blushed .
Gu Jingyu said, “Enough . Don’t spout nonsense . ”
“Teacher Bantu, isn’t she? If not, can I woo her?”
“Of course not!” Gu Jingyu deliberately gave them a poker face . “Go . If you guys don’t go, I’ll give you more homework . ”
The children dispersed in confusion .
Su Wan turned away . She felt embarrassed and dared not look at Gu Jingyu’s face .
Gu Jingyu said, “Come on, let’s go to the back and look around . ”
There were mountains at the back .
Su Wan looked down below and saw some monks plowing the land while the sun was hanging midway in the sky . Sunsets in this place were much later than on the mainland .
Gu Jingyu said, “The environment here is quite nice . Come and sit down . ”
Su Wan sat down, feeling cloudiness in her mind . She felt drowsy .
She felt even more sleepy when she looked at the clouds on the horizon, which gave her a relaxed feeling .
Just then .
Gu Jingyu suddenly came close and patted her cheek . “Hey, don’t fall asleep . ”
Su Wan immediately woke up and saw Gu Jingyu’s handsome face in close range in front of her .
He smiled . “Are you experiencing altitude sickness? You’ll feel this way at first . ”
“I…” She did not know either, but she did indeed feel strangely tired .
Previously, she had been very good at staying up all night . If she had to film, sleeping three to four hours each night would definitely not be a problem for days on end .
But now, she was tired beyond comparison .
She rubbed her eyes . Gu Jingyu had already approached her while smiling . He then swiftly lifted her in his arms .
“Hey, I…”
Su Wan fixed her eyes on him .
He said, “Alright . You’re really feeling altitude sickness . Stop moving . I’ll bring you back to rest . ”
Su Wan looked at his face and could not keep her eyes open .
Hugging his neck, she said shyly, “But I’m very heavy . ”
He smiled . “I haven’t been doing anything . I’ll be fine carrying you for even a day . ”
Gu Jingyu carried her all the way to the room .
On the way, many people were looking at them .
But no one screamed at him like people did on the mainland .
And no one cursed her out for being undeserving of him either .
When they went into the room, he said that he would get ginseng slices for her to suck on .
When he walked out, everyone had suggestive expressions on their faces .
“Bantu, you young chap . You made pretty quick progress . ”
“You hugged her just like that . I couldn’t tell that you were like this . In the past, I thought you were too numb . So you were waiting for someone like her . ”
“I really underestimated you . Will I be able to eat wedding candies soon?”
“You guys mind your own business . ”
Gu Jingyu threw a handful of soil at them in a teasing manner .
In this place, they could even joke around so casually . No one minded .
Su Wan was sitting inside .
Just then, the tanned girl walked in .
She was not ugly . Although she was looking at Su Wan with a hostile expression, Su Wan did not dislike her .
It was probably because she was too honest .
She had seen too many people with ulterior motives, who seemed friendly but were vicious behind her back . On the contrary, people who had their dislike for her written all over their faces made her feel relaxed .
She pouted and said, “Hey, don’t pester Brother Bantu . ”
Su Wan smiled . “Why? Do you like him?”
“Hmph . Yes . He likes me too . ”
Su Wan asked, “Oh? How do you know he likes you?”
“He teaches me English and cooks for me . He helps me carry firewood too . I’m telling you, so many people came here in the past and wanted to woo him when they met him . But it was all useless . You can forget about it too . Hmph . Do you think that Brother Bantu likes you just because he hugged you? That’s not true . Brother Bantu is way too nice . Don’t misunderstand . ”
Su Wan looked at her and thought about it . “Do many people here like him?”
“Of course . ” Pride was written all over her face .
Just then, Gu Jingyu returned .
The tanned girl hastily said, “Ah, Brother Bantu . You’re back . ”
He smiled and walked up to Su Wan . “Open your mouth,” he said to her .
Su Wan opened her mouth obediently .
He placed the ginseng slice into her mouth .
“Oohh…” It was so bitter .
Gu Jingyu said, “It will be tasteless soon . I have sweets with me here too . Once you’re done eating it, I’ll give you sweets to eat . ”
Beside them, the tanned girl was about to cry .
Pouting, she looked at the two of them hatefully .
Gu Jingyu said, “What’s wrong? Ah Shan, is anything the matter?”
The tanned girl said, “Brother Bantu, you… you’re so mean . Oh, oh, oh . ”
She ran out while saying this .
Su Wan gave a splutter of laughter . She looked at Gu Jingyu and said, “Even here, you still have so much charisma . ”
Gu Jingyu looked at her . “What nonsense are you spouting?”
“I mean it . Can’t you tell that that young girl likes you? That’s why she’s jealous . ”
Gu Jingyu glanced outside before turning his head back .
“Enough . Lie down and rest up first . There will be an evening party tonight . Everyone is sleeping outdoors . Don’t you want to participate?”
“I do, I do . Of course, I want to . ”
“In that case, listen to me and lie down . ” Gu Jingyu pushed her down and looked at her while saying, “I saw the news about you . ”
Su Wan froze .
He said, “You did well as the Panda Goddess . I watched it and you were very beautiful . ”
Su Wan’s heart twitched .
No matter how well she did, she never felt accomplished .
It was only until today that he told her she was beautiful…
