The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space - Chapter 2684

Chapter 2684: Chapter 2684: Do You Like Me? (2)

As soon as Gu Di finished speaking, Gu Qingheng kicked him: “If you don’t know, then go ask her. You’re usually the most scheming one, how come you’re so timid now? Be careful she gets snatched away and you end up a bachelor for life.”

Gu Di hurriedly jumped aside to dodge his master’s kick. “I’ll go ask right now.” Then he turned and ran off.

“As expected, people in love all have negative IQ.” Yang Ruxin shook her head. That Hong Ye so obviously liked Gu Di, yet this silly boy was still here hesitating. Men can wait, but a woman’s age can’t wait. If those two really have feelings for each other, she doesn’t mind going to the Empress Dowager to ask for a favor and help them become a couple.

Gu Di dashed all the way to the hotpot restaurant. Normally he only came by occasionally, but Hong Ye, except when she returned to the palace, was always stationed here. She had no choice—since the Empress Dowager had shares in this place, she had to help the Empress Dowager make money.

“Why are you back again?” Hong Ye was looking over the account book. When she saw Gu Di come in, she hurriedly stood up, poured him a cup of tea, and handed it over. “Isn’t madam and the rest about to head back? Don’t you need to…”

“Hong Ye.” Gu Di took the teacup but set it on the table. “I have something to ask you.” His face looked calm, but only he knew his palms were already slick with nervous sweat.

“Go ahead and ask.” Hong Ye nodded.

“Um…” Gu Di licked his lips. “Um…”

Hong Ye frowned. What was with him today?

“Um…” Gu Di raised a hand and scratched his face.

“Gu Di, what on earth do you want to say?” Hong Ye’s brows knitted even tighter. “What are you dawdling for? If you still won’t say it, I’m leaving. It’s getting late, I have to go back to the palace.”

“Don’t go.” Gu Di instinctively grabbed Hong Ye’s arm, but quickly felt it was inappropriate and hurriedly let go. “I want to ask you… do you like me or not?”

“What?” Hong Ye didn’t react for a moment.

“What I mean is, I like you and want to marry you and make you my wife. And you? Will you say yes or not?” Gu Di decided to just go for broke.

The two people hiding on the roof eavesdropping both twitched at the corners of their mouths. At first he’d been too shy to get a word out, but once he opened his mouth he went straight for the kill like this.

Hong Ye’s face flushed in an instant. “I don’t know what you’re talking about, I…”

“I’ve already spelled it out this plainly and you still ‘don’t know’?” Gu Di quickly sidestepped two steps to block the doorway. “I want you to be my wife…”

“But… but I’m already twenty-two.” Hong Ye suddenly sighed. “And I’m a palace maid. Even if—even if I wanted to, I can’t leave the palace until I reach the proper age, so…”

“None of that is a problem.” Gu Di shook his head. “Madam said as long as you like me too, she’ll handle everything else. Right now I’m just asking you—do you want to marry me?”

“What if I say I don’t want to?” Hong Ye lifted her eyes to look at Gu Di.

The Light in Gu Di’s eyes instantly went dim; he lowered his lids, missing that fleeting hint of mischief in Hong Ye’s gaze. “Then… then… what did I not do well enough?”

Pfft! Hong Ye laughed. “You’re already very good.”

“Then why wouldn’t you want to marry me?”

“I said ‘what if’, didn’t I!” Hong Ye arched a brow slightly.

“You mean you’re saying yes?” Gu Di’s eyes lit up at once. He suddenly stepped forward, wrapped Hong Ye in a hug, and spun her around twice. “Then I’m going to tell madam right now.” Then he turned and ran off.
