Gu Baichuan looked at her and said, "Did anyone ask you to wait? Did Lu Beiyuan ever tell you explicitly that he would be with you?"
Meng Qingxue was stunned, her mouth agape.
She had never considered this question.
Seeing her reaction, Gu Baichuan knew that probably she and Lu Beiyuan had never seriously discussed this matter—they just assumed based on their vague fondness from their youth that they could grow old together?
Both of them were unreliable!
"There are some things that you should understand without me having to say them."
"But since you are still deluded up to this point, then let me spell it out for you."
"We all grew up together, and you and Lu Beiyuan could be considered a match made in heaven, childhood sweethearts."
"Originally, Old Master Lu wanted Beiyuan to marry a girl from the Su Family. If Beiyuan really had you in his heart, he would have made things clear with his grandfather, and there might have been a chance for you two."
