My Love, My Whole Life

"No way," Gu Yu flatly refused her.

"Why not?" Tang Yuran's cute little face collapsed in an instant.

"Because..." Gu Yu frowned, thought for a while, and then replied slowly, "Because getting married requires the agreement of mom and dad. My mom and dad don't even know you, so you can't be my wife."

"Oh," Tang Yuran nodded, clutching a pound of tiger-skin peanuts, pondered for a moment, and then said with a smile, "That's easy, take me home with you after school today, will you?"

"What are you going to do?" Gu Yu looked at her warily.

"I'm going to meet your parents and get them to agree to let me be your wife!" Tang Yuran replied clearly.

"Heh, dream on!" Gu Yu rolled his eyes at her, not bothering to continue the conversation.

However, when school was over, Tang Yuran really grabbed the hem of Gu Yu's clothes and wouldn't let him go.

"Tang Yuran, what are you doing??" Seeing Tang Yuran holding onto Gu Yu and not letting him leave the classroom, Teacher Zhang hurried over and asked her.

"Teacher, I want to go home with Gu Yu!" Tang Yuran clung to Gu Yu with both hands, refusing to let go.

"What are you going to his house for?" Teacher Zhang asked, puzzled.

"To see his parents!"

"Ah?"

"To get them to agree for us to marry!" Tang Yuran added another sentence.

"Oh..." Teacher Zhang suddenly felt a bit down.

So young and already talking about boyfriends and girlfriends, and looking to meet the parents for marriage matters, meanwhile... her own boyfriend was still out there lost somewhere.

"But what if you go with him and then your mom comes to pick you up in a bit?" Teacher Zhang stroked Tang Yuran's head and asked her.

"Uh... this..." Tang Yuran was stunned for a moment. Right, if she went home with Gu Yu, her mom would be anxious if she couldn't find her when she came to pick her up later.

Gu Yu gave Tang Yuran a glance and said helplessly, "Let go, quick."

"I won't let go!" Tang Yuran made a face at him and then said to Teacher Zhang, "Teacher, could you call my mom for me?"

"Hmm?" Teacher Zhang paused, then nodded, took out her mobile phone, dialed Tang Yuran's mom's number, and handed over the phone, saying, "Do you want to talk to your mom yourself, or shall I tell her for you?"

"You hold the phone, teacher, I'll talk to mom myself." Tang Yuran's hands were still holding onto Gu Yu's clothes, leaving her no free hand to take the phone.

Teacher Zhang tugged at the corner of her mouth and wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Once the call connected, Tang Yuran's mom's voice came from the other end of the phone, saying, "Hello, Teacher Zhang."

"Mom, it's me!" Tang Yuran yelled into Teacher Zhang's phone.

"Youran? What's up?"

"Mom, may I go play at my new classmate's house for a while?"

"Which classmate, and where does he live?"

"Gu Yu, his home... um... Teacher Zhang knows. Mom, I'm going to his house to play now, bye!" Seeing Gu Yu trying to slip away while she was on the phone, Tang Yuran quickly spoke to her mom, and then, swiftly catching up with Gu Yu, ran off.

Teacher Zhang stood there dumbfounded, watching as Tang Yuran followed Gu Yu, running towards the classroom door and towards Gu Yu's dad.
