CHAPTER 549: 549: BOOK IN ADVANCE, BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY.

"Yes, yes..." Sister Gao was among them, she skewered a few pieces of meat and said, "Sister, just chat with us, that’s all..."

The sisters spoke politely.

Though they said that, Gu Tong couldn’t just do nothing.

"It’s okay, I’ve skewered before, I can help share the load with you sisters. The sooner we finish, the sooner we can find a place to sit and rest."

Gu Tong said cheerfully, with a smile always on her lips.

She didn’t have the slightest air of a spoiled young lady...

Which made the ladies feel warm inside and unable to refuse...

They could only let her do as she wished.

However, it had to be said, Gu Tong’s actions were skilled, her small hands were very nimble, even surpassing the speed of the ladies.

Seeing this, Liu Shu grew more and more fond of Gu Tong.

She looked at Gu Tong fondly and whispered, "Sister Gu Tong... when did you and the Earl get together..."

It’s not her fault for being gossipy, but really, it’s just so good.

Especially seeing their interaction today...

If you said it was a short time, probably no one would believe it...

When this topic was brought up, all the ladies directed their intrigued gazes at Gu Tong.

They watched her, waiting for her answer.

Gu Tong also understood their curiosity.

However...

This question was indeed the hardest to answer.

Saying it was short, wouldn’t be good!

Saying it was long, wouldn’t be right!

Plus, with Qiu Xue interfering in the middle, it made it hard to distinguish who came first.

"Two months!" Gu Tong chose to tell the truth.

"Two years, alright!" Li Yan’s magnetic voice came from behind Gu Tong.

Two completely different answers...

Came from the mouths of the couple...

Making everyone slightly stunned...

Gu Tong turned and looked at Li Yan behind her, but couldn’t help being dazed himself.

Li Yan’s eyes were deep, his thin lips slightly moving, and he said, "Two years ago, Gu Tong was still in college! On New Year’s Day, I went to deliver the fruits assigned by the Academy to Gu Wangjue and met Gu Tong who was home for the holidays."

"At that time, I fell in love at first sight, and I waited until she graduated. As soon as she returned, I began to pursue her. So, in my heart, we’ve been together for two years!"

This simple statement was more like casual storytelling.

But the words came from Li Yan’s mouth...

Everyone was dumbfounded by the topic, no one expected.

That it was the Devil King who actively pursued Gu Tong...

"So I was already reserved by you two years ago."

Gu Tong teased with a sentence.

Unexpectedly, the Devil King wasn’t even blinking when lying, his storytelling skills were top-notch.

"Yes, reserving in advance, there’s no harm in being prepared."

Li Yan responded nonchalantly, without much emotion.

However, in his mind, he couldn’t help but recall two years ago on New Year’s Day...

Her black hair draped down, casual home clothes, yet making her seem fresh and cute.

Gu Tong opened the door, with a sweet smile on her lips, she said, "You worked really hard, stay for lunch."

A smile that could melt everything warmed Li Yan’s heart and caught his eye!

From some point in time, the girl at the beginning caught his eye and now stood before him as his wife.

The threads of memory kept tugging him back.

All kinds of past events gradually faded...

"I’ll move the table under the tree to prevent you from getting heatstroke!"

Li Yan spoke to himself without asking about the ladies’ thoughts, and started moving the table.

And only after confirming several times that the sun wouldn’t shine over, did he reluctantly prepare to return to the trainees’ group...

However, even so...

Before leaving...

"The tent will take a while to set up, don’t tire yourselves out."
