Chapter 493: So Are you Married
Chapter 493
Nan XiangWan played games on the laptop Gu Beihuai brought, pulling off a pentakill.
Nan ChaoYang was sitting not far away at another table, staring at them. If looks could kill, he would definitely be able to abuse their corpses.
About two hours later, Gu Beihuai tapped the tabletop.
Nan XiangWan poked her head out from behind the laptop screen: “I’m here!”
Gu Beihuai looked at her: “Has anyone ever told you you're very cute?”
Nan XiangWan: “My mom used to say that, but she hasn't said it since I got into military school.”
Gu Beihuai smiled gently: “In my heart, you've always been irresistibly cute.”
Nan XiangWan made a strange expression and shouted: “Gu Beihuai.”
Gu Beihuai: “Hmm?”
Nan XiangWan: “Do you like me?”
Gu Beihuai was so shocked that his heart skipped a beat, almost cutting off blood flow.
Then it started pounding rapidly, beating like drums!
Nan XiangWan: “Why aren't you talking? You don't like me?”
After speaking, she started thinking, her deeply furrowed brows showing that she couldn't quite figure it out.
Has she recently sensed some big problem by intuition?
Gu Beihuai's pupils constricted. He had an urgent feeling that if he didn't explain clearly, he would miss this chance.
Just like last time!
Because of his tension and bewilderment back then, that was the end of things.
So he suddenly stood up and forcefully pulled Nan XiangWan's hand over!
With the table between them, their hands overlapped on the surface, intertwined.
In the bright library lights, it was like a halo shining around them.
In the distance, Nan ChaoYang was suddenly jolted alert, ready to rush over and fight at any time.
That vixen's at it again!
Nan XiangWan looked at Gu Beihuai in confusion. What was with the shock and awe? What was he trying to do?
Gu Beihuai's nervous fingers were icy cold: “I like you, I really like you! No, it's not just liking you, it's that I can't live without you.”
He looked seriously into Nan XiangWan's eyes, extremely nervous.
He desperately wanted to know what Nan XiangWan was thinking, what her feelings were towards him.
Nan XiangWan tilted her head and asked: “So will you marry me?”
Gu Beihuai almost choked!
Nan XiangWan: “You won't?”
Gu Beihuai hurriedly said: “I will! I want to get married!”
Nan XiangWan understood: “Okay, then get your ID ready and pick a date for us to go register. Let's get this done early.”
At her recent birthday, Dad kept going on about marriage, though he was only talking to Nan ChaoYang.
Unexpectedly, Nan ChaoYang didn't take it in, but Nan XiangWan did.
She felt that she should get married early to put her family at ease.
Gu Beihuai was dumbfounded!
He stared wide-eyed at Nan XiangWan, even wondering if he was dreaming.
Gu Beihuai: “You......”
Nan XiangWan suddenly remembered something and slapped her forehead: “I almost forgot, I'm not of age!”
Gu Beihuai: “You......”
Nan XiangWan let go of his hand: “What's with all your ‘yous’, let's talk about this later.”
Gu Beihuai grabbed her hand again: “No, we have to talk about this clearly today! We can't get married now, but we can get engaged, we can date, we can be together.”
Nan XiangWan considered: “That works too.”
Gu Beihuai was dumbfounded again. Was it really that simple?
So casually, he succeeded?
No gifts, no romantic setting, no candlelight dinner, all the contingency plans he had prepared went unused.
This wasn't right!
He looked straight into Nan XiangWan's eyes but couldn't see any emotion in their depths, not a hint of being moved.
Gu Beihuai's heart instantly cooled halfway. This reaction was clearly abnormal.
Whether it was confessing or agreeing to a lifetime commitment, it wasn't normal for someone to have no reaction at all. Forget reacting as strongly as him, but there should at least be some sweetness or something, right?
Yet Nan XiangWan's eyes were pure and unadulterated, without the slightest emotional distraction.
Just like an old nun!
Nan XiangWan tilted her head again: “Why are you looking at me like that?”
Gu Beihuai steeled his heart and asked: “So we're boyfriend and girlfriend now?”
Nan XiangWan: “Yeah.”
Her reply was unhesitating, as if she was merely stating a fact.
Gu Beihuai's heart pounded wildly again, thoroughly moved.
Even if she was oblivious, it was fine, it was fine.
First settle things, then slowly open up her feelings.
Gu Beihuai retracted his hand and smiled: “Okay, then sit next to me so I can easily hold your hand.”
As expected, Nan XiangWan didn't understand: “Why do you want to hold my hand? There's light now and you're wearing concept glasses.”
In her understanding, BeiBei only needed to hold hands when he couldn't see.
Gu Beihuai: “Because I want to. And with you sitting next to me, it'll be convenient for me to teach you.”
Nan XiangWan: “Oh.”
She obediently sat down beside him.
Gu Beihuai immediately grasped her hand, fingers interlocked.
Nan XiangWan looked down: “Your finger size isn't very suitable for sniper rifles. Although your grip strength and trigger pulling...”
Gu Beihuai: “Shhh!”
Nan XiangWan: “???”
Gu Beihuai: “Ahem, time for lessons.”
He really didn't want to chat about such cold, macho topics during this romantic moment. It was toxic!
Besides, he was just a teenager when he was a special forces sniper. His fingers were different back then. After nine years of course they wouldn't be the same.
Otherwise, why do they say that females are actually most suitable for using sniper rifles?
Quickly moving past this topic, Gu Beihuai started to meticulously teach Nan XiangWan military law.
Nan XiangWan listened attentively, but she still wasn't used to someone holding her hand. It was a bit inconvenient and she subconsciously wanted to pull her hand out several times.
But Gu Beihuai held on very tightly, refusing to let go. If he wasn't worried about going too far, he actually would've preferred to hold the girl in his arms as he taught.
In the distance, Nan ChaoYang was so angry that smoke was practically coming out of his seven orifices!
But at the moment his sister seemed quite serious about learning, and the two had an isolated atmosphere around them, blocking out everything else.
If Nan ChaoYang rashly charged in, his sister would definitely subconsciously attack him as a foreign object, just like that shoulder throw in the afternoon.
Really at his wits end, the little brother took out his phone to log in to social media.
And started randomly killing his CP fans!
Kill!!!
......
That evening after finishing training and classes, Teng Shihai found Guan Fei alone.
He looked very nervous: “Commander! My codename might have been leaked!”
Guan Fei's eyes instantly emitted a fierce light: “What happened?”
Teng Shihai gave a detailed report of the day's events, specifically emphasizing Gu Beihuai's condition.
After listening, Guan Fei's dangerous aura abruptly withdrew and he waved a hand: “Oh, you just misheard.”
Teng Shihai was even more anxious: “Does that mean there's something wrong with my ears? Do I need to redo ear capability testing? Will it impact subsequent missions and special forces internal arrangements?”
Guan Fei: “No need, it won't impact anything. Go back and sleep.”
Teng Shihai: “???”
Guan Fei: “Why are you still dawdling? I don't keep people overnight.”
When Teng Shihai returned to the dorm, he was still in a daze. Was it his ears that had a problem, or his commander's brain?
