Hai Tang immediately became very embarrassed. She understood that the auntie had mistaken Gu Yun for Yu Heng.

She stammered, not knowing how to explain to both parties.”Uh…”

However, Gu Yun glanced at Hai Tang and replied generously,””Yes, Auntie really has good eyes. Besides, we’ve recently gotten married.”

Hai Tang froze.

Why did Gu Yun recognize this identity? Wasn’t he curious about the boy she liked in high school? Or did Gu Yun find out long ago? He just didn’t expose her?

At the thought of this and seeing Gu Yun’s calm expression as if nothing had happened, Hai Tang immediately felt uneasy.

Should she confess and apologize?

“Married?” The auntie looked pleasantly surprised. She turned around happily and said to her uncle loudly, “Tang Tang married the boy she liked in high school. Quick, add an egg to each bowl.”

After saying that, the auntie wiped her hands on her apron and smiled in embarrassment.”This is just a small token of my appreciation.”

Hai Tang had already lowered her head and did not dare to speak. Seeing this,

Gu Yun thanked her, “”Thank you, Auntie.”

The auntie came over and wanted to chat with the two of them.”When did you two get together? Who confessed first? Is it Tang Tang?”

Hai Tang was so ashamed that her mind was a mess. She did not even dare to look at Gu Yun and the auntie’s expressions and did not answer.

“What’s wrong?” The auntie also sensed that something was wrong with Hai Tang and was a little nervous.

At this moment, Gu Yun helped Hai Tang out of the predicament and said,””lt’s fine. She’s just shy. I confessed first.”

“Oh, I see.” Only then did the auntie feel a little relieved.

At this moment, the uncle came out of the kitchen with two bowls of snail noodles, ending this awkward conversation.” The fragrant snail noodles are here. Eat them while they’re hot! ‘”‘

Then, the auntie and uncle went into the kitchen together and busied themselves with preparing the dishes.

Gu Yun pushed a bowl of noodles in front of Hai Tang and handed her a pair of chopsticks. He did not mention the content of the conversation just now, but said gently,””lt should smell quite authentic. Try it quickly to see if it has the same taste as before.’

“Alright.” Hai Tang took the chopsticks in a panic and started eating.

Even though the noodles were a little hot, she endured it and pretended to be busy eating.

Gu Yun also moved his chopsticks, but he had been subconsciously paying attention to Hai Tang.

He was worried that Hai Tang would think of Yu Heng because of what the auntie had said.

He was even more afraid that in Hai Tang’s heart, her long-standing love for Yu Heng, which everyone knew, was more important than him.

Gu Yun did not dare to speak. The two of them ate the snail noodles in silence. Even though the noodles were indeed very fragrant and tempting, the two of them did not know how to taste them.

“Cough cough!” Hai Tang suddenly choked on the chili oil. She covered her mouth and started coughing.

Gu Yun quickly handed her a piece of tissue and then a glass of water. After Hai Tang took it, he began to pat her back to stop her cough.

“How is it? Do you still feel uncomfortable?” Seeing that Hai Tang had stopped coughing, Gu Yun asked worriedly.

Hai Tang subconsciously glanced at him. Seeing Gu Yun’s sincere face and worry in his eyes, her heart stifled.

In the next second, bean-sized tears rolled down Hai Tang’s face and even fell into the bowl.

Gu Yun was stunned on the spot, but Hai Tang did not feel anything. She wanted to pick up her chopsticks and continue eating her noodles to hide the violent fluctuations in her heart.

“Don’t eat anymore.” Gu Yun reached out to stop her.

Hai Tang was at a loss. Only now did she realize that her face was already covered in tears. She wanted to dodge in a panic, but Gu Yun’s hands held her cheeks.

Gu Yun took a tissue to wipe her tears and comforted her softly,”lt’s okay, it’s okay…”

Gu Yun’s heart started to ache.

Even if Hai Tang suddenly decided to abandon him, divorce him, and then look for Yu Heng again, he could accept it.

After all, he knew that Hai Tang was an extremely sentimental person. He was already lucky to have Hai Tang. He did not dare to force Hai Tang to like him as much as she liked Yu Heng.

When she heard Gu Yun softly say,” It’s okay,” Hai Tang’s tears flowed even harder. Gu Yun frantically tried to wipe them away, but he couldn’t wipe them all.

She didn’t know what Gu Yun meant by this. Was it okay to hide it from him or was it okay to hide her past?

But no matter what she did, Gu Yun treated her with extreme patience and gentleness. This made Hai Tang feel even more uncomfortable and ashamed..
