Please don’t overthink…

Guisu stared at her serious face, and he became serious and earnest as well.

“I want to protect you, and it has nothing to do with whether you have someone you like, or who you’re with.”

Baili Xia was even more stunned, what does that mean?

“You…” After thinking it over, she finally figured it out, “You want to be my bodyguard?”

Also, since Sima Liuyue is Lu Xuening, she definitely can’t return to the Sima Family in the future.

Guisu used to be by Sima Liuyue’s side, but now that Sima Liuyue is out of the picture, he’s…

essentially unemployed.

He’s really more suited to being a bodyguard; you can’t have him be a thug or an assassin, right?

“But… I have no money.” Baili Xia felt a bit awkward, unsure if saying this would hurt Guisu’s self-esteem.

“Sorry, I really…

have no money, I can’t afford to hire you.

How about I ask Brother You, maybe he…”

“I don’t want money.” Guisu felt a bit of a headache, it seemed like…

the two of them weren’t on the same wavelength.

Rubbing his temples, he earnestly said, “You have no money, I can go work, I’ll earn money for you…”

“Pfft… cough! Cough cough…” Being her bodyguard, not only without pay, but he would pay instead?

Baili Xia was startled by his seriousness, was this to repay a debt?

Can we not?

“You… just woke up, your brain isn’t quite working well yet, you rest a bit, I’ll… I’ll go find Brother You, I’ll… see you later!”

Picking up the tableware, this time, she dashed out again…

no, it should be said, she fled as if flying.

Seeing the door she kicked shut with her foot, Guisu was momentarily stunned, then his eyes gradually filled with a joyful air.

Though clumsy and hectic, her genuine nature makes her very pleasant to look at.

He still remembers when he said he didn’t need compensation, just wanted to stay with Lu Xuening for life.

What did that woman say?

She said, why?

After knowing the reason, she immediately said, since you owe me, you must repay it with your entire life.

He actually didn’t understand much about human relationships, and Lu Xuening’s words didn’t seem improper to him.

If he owed her, he naturally had to repay.

But now…

Without comparison, there’s no harm, but the pain he thought he felt has now completely vanished.

He feels very fortunate, even though he met Baili Xia late, and learned the truth too late, at least he still had a chance to repay.

No need for any response from her, it doesn’t matter who is around her.

Just watching her like that, guarding her, quietly for a lifetime, is enough.

…

Baili Xia did indeed flee, from the room, and even out of the Bi Luo Pavilion’s hall.

She really didn’t know how Guisu’s mind was wired.

It must be because he felt she saved him, and wanted to repay her.

But sometimes, when it comes to repayment, you also need to see if the other person wants it.

He made her think of an idiom: offering oneself in marriage…

Cough, what year is it, and yet the thought is still so traditional.

Though naively cute, but…

isn’t it quite scary?

Walking out of the hall, she took a stroll in the courtyard, and her mood finally gradually relaxed.

This kind of thing, if she explains it well, maybe he would understand.

Not every debt needs to be repaid, she really doesn’t need it.

After another stroll in the courtyard, suddenly, she stopped abruptly.

Wu Ming…

Last night, Guisu slept in her room, she watched over him the whole night.

Then, where was Wu Ming?

That guy in the Bei Family, he didn’t even have a place to stay, where did he stay last night?
