I Really Understand! (Part Two)
Gu ShuBai carried Yu Fu while walking with urgency. After arriving outside the Western Wing, he put her down in the corridor.

It was already winter, and there was a bit of ice on the wooden benches. As soon as Yu Fu’s butt touched it, she hopped back up and hung from his neck.

Her movements caused a smile to momentarily appear on his face.

“Eldest brother, as long as you are smiling, it’s fine. Why did you and Kun WuShang start fighting earlier?”

Being so impatient was not at all like Gu ShuBai’s usual self.

Instead, it was more like when Gu Xiang and the others had beaten up Gu ChangSheng and his brother at the school.

“Hmph. That Kun WuShang was raving about some things and said some things that were completely lacking in integrity. I had to teach him a lesson.”

“What sort of things?”

Yu Fu looked very curious. She hung from his neck and swayed side to side, urging him to quickly give her a response.

Gu ShuBai’s white face turned slightly red.

Who knew if it was from anger or embarrassment.

His voice felt a bit quiet, and his eyes looked foggy, “He said that he had seen you bathing. Is this true?”

Yu Fu’s face immediately turned bright red.

“He’s lying! Eldest brother would even believe this! If he dared, master would have beaten him to death!”

Aside from feminine reservation, she began to refute this question without a second thought for fear of Gu ShuBai misunderstanding.

“That scoundrel actually dares to spout such nonsense to you while I’m not there. Did he say what year, what month, and where this happened?”

“When you were six and in a small creek in Immortals Valley.”

“Ah…”

Yu Fu carefully thought back. Too much time had passed since she was six, and she could not recall very clearly.

Whether or not Kun WuShang was lying, she could not say for certain.

When she was young, she had indeed bathed in small creeks. It was not just her. Her fellow disciple sisters had also done the same.

The older ones would pump water to wash inside. Not to mention the effort, but it was also not fun. Yu Fu and the younger ones were completely unable to understand why they would do this. It was only in the past few years that they began to understand.

Gu ShuBai suddenly smiled.

“Forget it. At six, it’s hard to tell if the body belongs to a boy or a girl. That Kun WuShang was out of ideas and used this to provoke me.”

Not to mention when Yu Fu was six, but even now, her body was still emanating an aura of childishness, especially when she was wrapped up in so many thick layers. The front of her body resembled a vast plain.

Gu ShuBai felt at ease, completely oblivious to the holes in his argument.

If even Kun WuShang’s “lack of ideas” was able to provoke him, he was truly a little too impatient.

Yu Fu was a little perplexed, “Eldest brother only wanted to hit him because of this?”

There did not seem to be any problem. If she had also been present at the time, she would definitely have wanted to poke him with a needle.

Gu ShuBai let out a heavy sigh, as she had poked at the heart of the matter.

“Yu Fu, do you like me?”

“Of course, I like you! I like eldest brother the most!”

Her young and tender hands were still wrapped around the back of his neck, and she rubbed her small head against his shoulder. She resembled a small cat.

Her small movements seemed to have ignited something, as Gu ShuBai began to burn up.

He hastily put Yu Fu down.

Having these sorts of feelings for a twelve-year-old child was truly too filthy!

He restrained his feelings and turned away to avoid looking at Yu Fu, as he did his best to calm down.

Yu Fu stood all alone, but some of his body heat still lingered on the palms of her hands.

It was exceedingly hot.

“Then does eldest brother like Yu Fu?”

The tall figure suddenly froze, as Gu ShuBai slowly turned around.

What sort of like was she speaking of?

In that pair of eyes that were nimble like a fawn’s, a youthful innocence was mixed with the shyness of a young girl.

There was also a fawn in his heart, and it was jumping all over the place.

“I do. I really do.”

Yu Fu tilted her small head and smiled, revealing her charming dimples.

It was truly a sight that would make people want to try and take a bite. Those cheeks that were white with a bit of red seeping through surely tasted better than any peaches in existence.

“Everyone really likes you. Even aunty and YunYan are the same. How could I not like you?”

The added explanation was a clear cover-up, but in the end, it was all just a result of his conflicting feelings.

She was still a child.

“Oh.”

Yu Fu lowered her head, and it seemed that she was a little disappointed. Any lingering heat in her hand slowly dissipated, and she could not catch it even if she wanted to.

So the way that he liked her was the same way that madam Su and the others liked her. There was nothing special.

But she liked her eldest brother. It was different from the way that she liked the others.

Fourth brother had said it before. This sort of like was one where they wanted to stay together for a long time, while the other one was the same as liking family.

But the way that eldest brother liked her, it might just be the same as liking a younger sister?

The not-yet-mature little girl looked even smaller with her head hanging.

In truth, she had grown a little taller. It was just that in front of him, that very slight growth was negligible. It was very easy to overlook.

Gu ShuBai suddenly reached out a hand and patted her head.

He could not help himself and tried to restrain himself again.

“But the way that I like you is different from the way that others like you. You might not understand it, but there will come a day when you will understand.”

He wanted to wait, wait until she was no longer a child.

“I understand. I really understand!”

Yu Fu suddenly smiled and began to bounce about, the small bells on her head causing quite a racket.

She clapped her hands and danced around the corridor. She was smiling so much that her eyes took the shape of crescent moons.

“I really understand! Eldest brother, you like me, isn’t that right? Just like how Princess DanYang likes you, isn’t that right? Or just like how Yao Yue likes second brother, isn’t that right?”

Gu ShuBai was stunned.

Which bastard was it that taught Yu Fu about this?
