Chapter 739: Show Off (6)_1
Gu Yao’s face suddenly flushed, but she still tightened the reins, "How am I being stingy? I’m just worried about you..."
"Worried about what? That old flames might reignite for him?" Yang Ruxin’s lips twitched, and she slapped Gu Yao’s head, "What are you thinking? You have so little faith in me?"
Gu Yao pursed her lips.
"Ayao, he seems to be heading back to the village. It would seem rather petty for us to pretend not to recognize him," Yang Ruxin smiled, "Besides, he has never been a match for Gu Qingheng, because he never had the status... Your brother isn’t worried, and here you are fretting over nothing..."
"I just don’t like him; he makes me feel uncomfortable," Gu Yao glanced at Yang Ruxin, "In your words, I think he’s posing..."
"Haha..." Yang Ruxin laughed, "Not bad with words, but shouldn’t we give people a chance to correct themselves?" With that, she climbed out of the carriage and looked back at Guan Qingshu, who had approached, "What a coincidence, Scholar Guan."
Guan Qingshu was taken aback. When he saw it was Yang Ruxin, his face flashed with embarrassment. He was walking home to save on carriage fare, but the girl he had once scorned now had her own carriage. Such was the difference...
"Heading home?" Yang Ruxin smiled, "If you don’t mind, I can give you a ride for part of the way..."
"Great... Xinxin... I..." Guan Qingshu had regained his composure and wanted to decline, but he couldn’t pass up an opportunity to be alone with Xinxin. Of course, he wasn’t under any illusions that she was still interested in him; he understood that Xinxin was just offering a ride as a fellow villager.
