"..." Gu Li looked utterly confused. When did she ever agree to anything? She hadn't even been aware of it.
Feeling awkward being held by him, Gu Li asked him to put her down, then she spoke, "Uncle Gu, might there be some misunderstanding? You are my guardian, and I am not going to marry in this lifetime, so you are responsible for taking care of me until I am grown up, even until I am old."
Gu Chen was totally flabbergasted. Was she not going to marry him?
Upon this realization, his expression immediately fell, and thinking back on his presumptuous behavior just now, it was simply embarrassing...
Seeing him dejectedly lie back down on the bed, Gu Li felt somewhat helpless and yet couldn't help but laugh a little.
She realized he misinterpreted her words!
She had seen this side of Gu Chen many times. During those times when he followed her around, she would always turn decisively away and leave without hesitation at the sight of him.
