Gu Jue had completely misunderstood. He thought Su Jing didn’t want him to be sad, and that was why she tore up the photos and posters of Qin Feng.
To put it bluntly, he and Su Jing were just two strangers that had just met. Since Su Jing cared so much about his emotions, it must be because she liked him.
Gu Jue’s thought process was so simple. He grew up in an environment where everyone hated him. So, it was his survival instinct to please others and read their minds.
If Su Jing didn’t care about him, then she wouldn’t care about his thoughts. But, he was a person with nothing, so he had no value to Su Jing. So, there was only one possibility for Su Jing to treat him that well. She had an emotional need for him.
Gu Jue was extremely good-looking, so many people liked him. But, without exception, they chose to stay away from him after they found out about his identity.
Being the illegitimate son of the Gu family, the son of a vixen, he must have had no good intentions. He stayed in the Gu family for the sake of the Gu family’s property and was as shameless as his mother.
Gu Jue had been listening to these words since he was young.
He was glad that Su Jing did not know his true identity. Otherwise, she would have stayed away from him like everyone else.
He needed a place to stay, and his instincts told him that Su Jing was different from those other women who only wanted his good looks. If he could get Su Jing to like him, everything would not be a problem.
His expression looked touched as he held onto Su Jing’s hand that was about to continue tearing the poster.
He said, “Sister, you don’t have to change anything because of me. I’m not worth it.”
Su Jing did not think about a romantic relationship at all. She simply thought of Gu Jue as a younger brother with a tragic background.
So, she misunderstood what Gu Jue meant as well, “I’ll be sad if you look down on yourself like this. Don’t say things like this anymore. In fact, I’ve wanted to clean up these things for a long time. It’s just that it’s hard to clean them up by myself. Hurry up and help me.”
Su Jing was telling the truth. She wasn’t the original Su Jing, so she wasn’t interested in Qin Feng. Even she felt disgusted by the things hanging on the wall.
“But…” Gu Jue seemed to be trying to persuade Su Jing.
Su Jing cut him off, “Alright, hurry up and help!”
Gu Jue couldn’t argue with Su Jing, so he had no choice but to help her clean up.
Su Jing’s host left behind too many “merchandises” of Qin Feng. It took the two of them more than two hours to clean up everything.
Gu Jue packed everything in a black plastic bag and said hesitantly, “Are we really going to throw all these away? It’s such a waste.”
Su Jing carried two bags out the door, “Yes, throw them away, throw them all away!”
The two of them spent another hour hauling away the rubbish that filled the living room.
After the last bag of rubbish was thrown into the bin, Su Jing clapped her hands as if she had solved a huge problem. She took a deep breath and said, “It’s finally done. Little Jue, let’s go to the supermarket.”
“Okay.” Gu Jue obediently followed behind Su Jing.
The two of them arrived at the supermarket. Gu Jue pushed a trolley and walked over to Su Jing, “Sister, let’s buy some food later. I want to make you dinner to repay you.”
“Sure, I’ll take that!”
She initially wanted to take Gu Jue out for a big meal, but agreeing to Gu Jue’s request would ease his burden, so Su Jing did not refuse.
The two of them first went to the groceries section to pick out some fresh vegetables and meat that Su Jing liked to eat. Afterward, they pushed the cart to the daily necessities section.
Su Jing had wanted Gu Jue to pick whatever he liked, but Gu Jue ended up picking out the cheapest items. Su Jing couldn’t stand it any longer. She put the items back on the shelves and took whatever was the most expensive.
Su Jing even lectured Gu Jue, “Life is meant to be enjoyed. How can you be comfortable with those low-quality things?”
Su Jing seemed to have forgotten that the things she used in the real world were not much better than those. This woman was simply a nouveau riche.

“But, Sister, I really don’t need to use such good things…” Gu Jue tried to persuade Su Jing. Su Jing treated him too well, but he had his own motive to please her. This made him feel bad.
“Hey, if you continue to be like this, I’m not going to be happy!” Su Jing pulled the cart forward and walked in front.
She had just finished lecturing Gu Jue when she turned around and bumped into a sturdy chest.
Su Jing’s forehead hurt from the impact. She rubbed her forehead and was about to start scolding, but when she saw who it was, the words froze on the tip of her tongue.
