Chapter 111: A Announcement to the World, I Like You

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

“Lu Zhiyuan, I like you!” Gu Ci took the microphone, her smile dazzling, her voice echoing like a proclamation that spread to every corner of the beach.

In the distance, the waves rolled gently, as if responding.

She forgot all her worries, forgot about Lu Zhiyuan’s dual personality. She only remembered the regret of her past life when Lu Zhiyuan never said he liked her.

But what about her?

Even until Lu Zhiyuan’s death, she never said “I like you” once.

She looked at Lu Zhiyuan, tears in her eyes, a mix of happiness and joy. It turns out that confessing boldly to someone is such a blissful thing.

After Lu Zhiyuan’s death, Gu Ci regretted it countless times. Why was she always trapped in self-doubt and pain, unable to muster the courage to say “1 like you”?

In this lifetime, she finally achieved her wish without any regrets.

“Gu Ci likes Lu Zhiyuan!”

This declaration of love, though delayed by many years, finally reached Lu Zhiyuan’s heart through the passage of time.

“Wow…” Thunderous applause erupted on the beach. The crowd cheered and clapped, and the music exploded. The joy of men and women in love is indeed the most beautiful thing in the world.

In this moment, even the music gave courage to Gu Ci.

Lu Zhiyuan held Gu Ziyu’s hand tightly, his eyes dark and deep. Gu Ci’s voice, accompanied by the music, exploded in his ears, and it was like a firework exploding.

Their gazes intertwined in the air, entangled. Gu Ci had tears in her eyes, but she laughed freely.

Lu Zhiyuan’s breathing became heavy, his chest heaving. Only the veins on the back of his hand revealed his emotions.

“Brother, you’re hurting me.” Gu Ziyu’s voice brought Lu Zhiyuan back to reality. He let go of his hand, his fair hand red and swollen from his grip.

Li Jiang was now a standard bystander, his mouth wide open in astonishment as if he could fit a duck egg in it.

Miss Gu Ci shattered his preconceptions. She was so courageous. This was Third Master, not Third Young Master, what was she thinking?

Who can resist the confession of a beautiful girl, so sincere and joyful?

She likes you, the whole world knows.

Bold and fearless.

Gu Ci jumped off the stage and walked towards Lu Zhiyuan, hugging him.

“I’m not… him.” His voice was obscure, and his emotions were hard to understand. He didn’t dare to reach out and hug her.

The music shook, and they toasted with wine.

The sky was full of stars and moon, witnessed by thousands.

Lu Zhiyuan put his hands on her shoulders, wanting to push her away, but he heard Gu Ci say, “I like you, whether it’s day or night.”

A grand and passionate confession instantly made it to the top of the trending topics.

There were dozens of hot search keywords, all related to Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan.

Gu Ci’s phone was filled with messages. Zhou Jinjin sent a bunch of voice messages, but Gu Ci didn’t bother listening. She already knew what Zhou Jinjin would say.

In the Jiang family group chat, Grandma Jiang posted a video she got from somewhere. It was Gu Ci’s confession, clearly captured. Jiang Junlin responded with a smiling emoticon, Gu Ci pretended to be dead, and Gu Ziyu followed suit with a smiling emoticon.

Grandpa and Grandma Jiang were very concerned about one thing: Did you get him?

Gu Ci: Still working on it.

Lin Chunli: Is Third Young Master that hard to pursue? With such a confession, even Auntie is moved. Is he really so cold-hearted?

Jiang Junlin: Smiling.jpg

Grandma Jiang: Cici, your strategy for pursuing someone is wrong. Being so enthusiastic and taking the initiative, boys won’t appreciate it. A girl should be reserved.

Jiang Minghua: He’s so hard to pursue. He’s not moved even after you confessed to the whole world. Forget him and find someone else who is more obedient.

Grandpa Jiang: Yeah.

Jiang Junlin: Exactly.

Gu Ziyu: Agreed!!

Lin Chunli sent a bunch of strategies for girls pursuing guys: Cici, learn from this, see which tricks you haven’t tried.

Lin Chunli was kicked out of the group chat by Jiang Minghua.

Gu Ci: Uncle, aren’t you afraid of kneeling and washing clothes?

The next second, Auntie was pulled back into the chat.

Jiang Minghua: My hand slipped.

Lin Chunli: Slap.jpg.

On the internet, the heat exploded. Jiang Junlin tried to suppress it, but gave up and let it go.

The rumors of Gu Ci and Lu Zhiyuan’s relationship had already spread. The Dynasty team never denied it, and Lu Zhiyuan only said he hadn’t been in a relationship. But then he went to the seaside city with Gu Ci, and they were even seen holding a child’s hand.

“Gu Ci is really brave. With ten thousand people at the beach, she confessed publicly. She dares to love and hate a true woman.”

“Even though Lu Zhiyuan denies being in a relationship, how can she still dare to confess? It must be media pressure, she’s so scheming.”

“No relationship, but traveling together in the seaside city, holding hands. A candid shot of them holding hands, what does that mean? Is Lu Zhiyuan being shameless?”

“Hahaha, the male god has girls from around the world admiring him. Is he afraid of admitting a relationship because of the backlash? He’s really toxic. If you’re in a relationship, just admit it openly. Why make the girl confess to the whole world? What a jerk.”

“Ugh, shut up. Lu Zhiyuan doesn’t rely on fans to make a living. Who cares if he’s in a relationship or not?”

“Hahaha, you braindead fans care. You keep calling him ‘husband’ every day. Look at yourself in the mirror and then compare yourself to Gu Ci. Looks, education, family background, what can you compare?”

“Lu Zhiyuan, I like you too! Lin Zhao has liked Lu Zhiyuan for ten thousand years!!!”

The comments section had a variety of opinions. Gu Ci glanced briefly, not caring about the negative comments or the positive ones. Many braindead fans sent her hate messages accusing her of pressuring Lu Zhiyuan with public opinion, calling her a scheming woman.

But there were also people who sent private messages praising her bravery, and Gu Ci didn’t pay attention to those either.

After hanging at the top of the trending topics for nearly an hour, the top comment was a photo of them holding Gu Ziyu’s hand.

Comment: Am I the only one who thinks this looks like a family of three?

The comments below were also interesting.

“If Lu Zhiyuan were seven or eight years older, I would believe it.”

“Did you two lie about your ages? Is this your baby?”

“To be honest, if Gu Ci marries Lu Zhiyuan, this is what their son will look like.”

“The little prince is so cute and clever-looking.”

Gu Ci’s confession caused her fans to increase by 500,000 overnight, comparable to an internet celebrity. This incident brought her a lot of attention and popularity, even surpassing that of A-list celebrities.

Even her mentor sent her a thumbs-up emoticon.

In the neighboring suite.

Lu Zhiyuan sat on the balcony, looking at the distant lights, a glass of red wine by his side. Li Jiang scratched his head and rubbed his chin, feeling like a hedgehog. The hype was so high. How was he going to handle the public relations?

relations.’

Third Master, can you give us a clear statement?

No one expected that Miss Gu Ci, who had always been cool, emotionally reserved, and seldom smiled, would publicly declare her love for Lu Zhiyuan in front of the whole world.

Confession was delightful, but public relations turned into a minefield.

What should they do?

Lu Zhiyuan sat like a sculpture for two hours, silent and motionless since he returned. Li Jiang was also troubled. “Third Master, about…public relations? What should we say? Give us a clear statement, the PR department is anxious and waiting online..”
