Chapter 1499: Hurt Her Feelings

When Gu Meng took the initiative to say these words, her heart had almost jumped out of her throat.

This was her first time confessing to someone!

A layer of sweat appeared on her palms.

Lowering her fan-like long eyelashes, she did not dare to meet his deep black eyes.

But his facial features, and even his expression when he spoke had already been deeply engraved in her heart.

After she confessed, there was dead silence in the air.

He did not respond immediately.

He only looked at her with his dark eyes.

One second, two seconds… One minute, five minutes passed and Gu Meng did not receive a response from the man. Her thumping heart gradually calmed down and her boiling blood started to cool down.

Did he not like her?

But if he didn’t like her, why was he so good to her?

From their usual interactions, she could feel that he liked her.

Besides, he had kissed her before!

When she thought of that kiss where their tongues intertwined, she would still feel so happy and sweet.

Gu Meng looked up, meeting his deep black eyes, wanting to get an answer from him.

Apart from his deep gaze, there was no other emotion or expression in his eyes. It was exceptionally calm, as if her confession had not stirred any ripples in his heart.

Gu Meng felt a lump in her throat and hot tears almost fell from her eyes.

He was so calm. He definitely did not like her.

Perhaps, that kiss back then had been an accident.

He had regretted it after kissing her.

If not, he would not have done nothing after so many years.

Gu Meng’s heart tightened.

She retracted her hand from his large palm, her eyes filled with tears. “Brother Ah Dai, you won’t agree, right?”

The man looked at his large palm, his long fingers tightening slightly. “Xiaomeng, you can find someone better.” He had no memories, did not know who he was, did not have a home, did not have money, and was still a big monster in the eyes of most people in the fishing village. His existence had already given her a lot of pressure.

If they really dated and got together, she would have to endure and face even more pressure. He did not have enough confidence to make her happy.

Perhaps, it would be better for her to be with another man than with him.

“I’m sorry, Xiaomeng. You deserve someone better.”

The hot tears circling in Gu Meng’s eyes fell immediately. She stood up from the ground, glaring at the silent man with red and wet eyes. “If you don’t like me, why did you kiss me back then?” He even kissed her with his tongue. She had checked online that tongue kisses were only suitable for intimate couples.

“I’m sorry.”

Gu Meng could not say anything. She had finally mustered her courage and confessed to him. She thought that he would agree happily… She never thought that it would turn out this way. .

Gu Meng ran out crying.

He looked at her back, his eyebrows furrowed tightly.

Looking at the table of food she had prepared meticulously, his chest felt extremely stuffy.

…

Gu Meng ran out of the house and when she reached the gate, she stopped and could not help but turn back.

Asshole Ah Dai had not chased after her!

Had she been thinking too much these few years?

Or could it be that he only treated her as his younger sister and had no other feelings for her?

It was the first time she had fallen for someone and the first time she had mustered up her courage to confess but it had ended up like this!

Stupid Ah Dai! He was clearly very good to her, so why couldn’t he like her?

Her tears fell onto her lips like pearls and she tasted bitterness.

It was too bitter to like someone. She did not want to like him anymore!

…

Gu Meng had been studying in the vocational school for the past year. Because of Ah Dai being bitten by a snake, she had taken several days off.

The day after her confession failed, she returned to the training school.

While waiting for the bus, she met Fu Cheng, who was driving a small sedan.

“Gu Meng, where are you going?” Fu Cheng lowered the car window and looked at Gu Meng, who was standing by the roadside.

“I’m going to the vocational school in town.”

“Get in the car. I’m going into town, so I’ll give you a ride.”

Gu Meng hesitated for a few seconds before she got into the car.

Fu Cheng looked at Gu Meng, whose eyes were slightly red and swollen. He raised an eyebrow and asked, “What’s wrong? Are you unhappy?”

Gu Meng looked down and shook her head. “No.”

On the way, Fu Cheng talked to Gu Meng several times but Gu Meng was a little distracted.

“You cried? Why are you upset?”

“I really didn’t.” Gu Meng turned her face towards the window. Thinking of Brother Ah Dai’s rejection last night, she felt sad again.

…

Ah Dai had just recovered and Mr Gu asked him to rest at home.

After Gu Meng left last night, he had sat in the kitchen for the entire night. There were many cigarette butts scattered on the floor.

He had a nap during the day.

In the afternoon, he got out of bed and was about to go to the kitchen to make some food when there was a loud banging at the door.

Ah Dai thought it was Gu Meng and his heart skipped a beat. He walked to the door and opened it.

The door had just opened when a punch landed on his face.

Ah Dai took a few steps back.

Before he could stand up properly, another punch landed on him.

Ah Dai wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and looked at the man who had hit him with a dark gaze.

Fu Cheng.

Ah Dai clenched his fists and punched back at Fu Cheng.

The two equally tall men fought in the room.

Until they collapsed to the ground.

Fu Cheng was not Ah Dai’s opponent. It was obvious that Ah Dai had undergone some kind of training in the past. If he had not shown mercy just now, he might have been crippled.

Fu Cheng glanced at Ah Dai with red eyes. “You were bitten by a sea snake and were unconscious. The village doctor said that you couldn’t pull through it and might die. Gu Meng ignored the danger and went into the deep mountains to look for the Ghost Herb. She suffered and even got sick after coming back. What did you do to her to make her cry?”

Ah Dai was slightly stunned, his eyes filled with disbelief. “What did you say? She went into the mountains to look for Ghost Herbs?”

“If not, do you think you would still be alive?”

Ah Dai didn’t say anything else. He stood up, went to his room to get a jacket, put it on, and hurried out.

…

Gu Meng returned to the vocational school, attended classes in the afternoon, and had dinner with her classmates.

Her classmate invited her to sing karaoke that night, but Gu Meng refused. She was not in a good mood and had experienced the feeling of falling out of love before she had even fallen in love.

She was alone in the dormitory. Lying on the bed, she covered her head with the blanket.

She had had insomnia last night and her eyes were swollen from crying. Now, she was indeed tired.

Soon, she fell asleep. While she was still in a daze, the phone in the dormitory rang.

Gu Meng lifted the blanket and got off the bed with a tired expression, answering the call.

She picked up the receiver with sleepy eyes, her voice slightly hoarse. “Hello, who are you looking for?”

“Gu Meng.”
