Love? The Reborn Me Just Wants to Obtain Rewards-Chapter 519 - 231: Our Dance of Flowers

"Yueyue, Su, where are you guys going?"

Gu Tongshu’s voice was kind, and he thought his expression was equally kind.

But actually...

What appeared before Su Huai and Gu Jiuyue was a face with twitching corners of the mouth, stiff and awkward.

Gu Jiuyue, being exceptionally clever, instantly knew the reason, but she didn’t hurry to let go of Su Huai’s hand. Instead, she replied boldly, "Dad, we’re going downstairs to play the piano for a bit, have you finished your work?"

Gu had just asked casually, with no particular intent.

However, to Gu Tongshu, it immediately sounded like something else—If you’re not done, just keep busy and don’t bother us!

So frustrating!

Think you can send me away to have your little duo world? Gou Dongxi, don’t even think about it!

The words were spoken by Gu Jiuyue, but the blame fell on Su Huai. Where could one even begin to reason?

Gu Tongshu, grinding his teeth yet with a smiling face, replied, "Mm, I’m almost done. It’s a good time to enjoy your piano playing. I haven’t heard you play in a long time..."

Gu didn’t often play the victim, but that skill, for him, was too easy, almost second nature.

Gu Jiuyue indeed felt a bit embarrassed to refuse him, but she immediately clarify, "It’s not just me playing; Su and I are doing a four-handed piano piece."

Damn!

Puppy, you play so fancy?!

Gu Tongshu’s face turned green, his eyes sparking with a fiery red flame.

No way, I don’t agree!

The opposition instantly dominated, but he didn’t oppose bluntly, instead asking in surprise, "Oh? Su can play the piano too? When did you practice?"

Gu hadn’t had anyone watch Su Huai at school, so he knew nothing about what had happened the day before.

According to his research, Su had only ever played cotton candy to amuse his own little girl—a trick easily seen through.

As expected, Su Huai replied with ’weakness’, "I haven’t really practiced much, just messing around with it."

Upon hearing this, Gu Tongshu immediately caught on, "Then it’s good for you to learn more from Jiuyue. She’s quite talented in arts; being a teacher for a beginner won’t be a problem."

On first listening, this seems polite, right?

But this was actually a nail hammered into the youth’s heart, aimed precisely at a young man’s pride.

Even if Su didn’t care because of his thick skin, once his performance fell short later, Gu Tongshu had many more tactics ready to follow-up.

But Gu Jiuyue immediately waved her hand, directly shoving Gu Tongshu back into the mud.

"Don’t talk nonsense, Gu, you don’t understand art."

She was quite unhappy: We are two masters appreciating each other’s skills; what are you babbling about? I’m not fit to be Su’s teacher!

Gu Tongshu’s eyes widened, baffled and hurt.

Damn it, Su Huai, how many holes did you poke in my Little Cotton-padded Jacket?!

This is really not wearable anymore...

With Gu Tongshu’s angry gaze upon him, Su raised a hand, shrugged, and performed a "I didn’t say anything." The creditor has their debtor; no use looking at me here.

Gu finally extinguished his anger, following behind the fuming Gu with a defeated look, his mind swirling with questions, baffled.

My daughter is usually so reasonable and good. What on earth happened?

Dazedly following to the entrance of the Central Hall, the good daughter stopped him again.

"Dad, you can listen, go to the living room. You can watch us practice from there~~~"

Alright, alright, think I’m a nuisance, right?

I... I’ll endure!

He walked sulkily and sullenly into the adjacent living room. Although there’s no door between the central atrium and the living room, and essentially, he could hear and see everything, it didn’t change the fact that he was "expelled."

Sitting down on the sofa, perhaps too abruptly, he felt a darkness before his eyes.

In a daze, Gu thought he saw his deceased wife, who had spoken to Wang Yuqing in the same way years ago: "Oh, Dad, go do whatever you need to do! You’re always scaring Tongshu!"

A bullet shot years ago hit him right between the eyes now.

Time seemed to change nothing, yet it changed everything...

Gu Tongshu vigorously rubbed his face, brushing away that brief weakness, his gaze sharp as a hawk, continuing to fixate on that rascal Su Huai.

Am I the same as that bad kid?

Back in my day, I was handsome and steadfast, it was true love for Yizhi, not like the rascal’s flirty tricks!

Spotty Su Huai sat next to Gu Jiuyue on the long piano bench, glanced sideways at the living room, the corner of his mouth curling up.

Then, in an extremely gentle and rich voice, at a volume just enough for Gu Tongshu to hear, he asked with a smile, "Gu, what shall we play?"

"I don’t know, ah..."

Gu seemed a bit confused and torn: "I like a lot of light music, but I’ve never practiced any duets..."

"Then shall we start with something simple?"

Su Huai comforted her gently, and not just that, he also took the initiative to suggest.

"How about ’Flower Dance’? I think I saw a four-hand score online."

Buling, Gu Jiuyue’s eyes suddenly brightened.

"Flower Dance? I absolutely love it! Wow, Su, you’re amazing!"

The unspoken half was: How can you know and understand me so well? I really like you~~~

Though she didn’t say it out loud, those who should understand, understood.

Su Huai slightly smiled, not arrogant, just casually glanced again at the living room.

Gu Tongshu’s head spun dizzy with sourness, as if his nose was punched. Seeing the rascal’s smirk, wow... he gasped, bursting with anger!

But Su had already withdrawn his gaze, in a victorious posture, placing the tablet on the music stand.
