Love should be demonstrated!
But no one ever said that demonstration equates love...
Asking this question was equivalent to a voluntary humiliation. However, she really, really wanted to know the answer. Lu Zhanbei was too "honest". If he wished, he could have lied to make himself less heartbroken. He could just say that he loved her.
Yet, he was not even willing to lie to her...
The feeling of embarrassment was difficult to describe. Not wanting to seem even more pitiable, she decided to change the subject: "Today... isn't it Gu Sitian's birthday?"
Lu Zhanbei casually responded with a sign of disinterest.
Gu Qianqian didn't look at him. She just asked, "Aren't you going to go celebrate with her?"
Hearing this, Lu Zhanbei finally turned to look at her and asked, somewhat unhappily, "Do you want me to go celebrate with her?"
Gu Qianqian: "..."
No, she wanted him to go.
