Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 2071: Chapter 2071: Longing to Return (The End)

[One minute, I want all the information on this person!]

[Looking at the picture, I can’t say it’s that girl who was the aggressor to my wife.]

[Why is my wife so stunning! Had I known, I would have gone to the scene, I regret it so much!!]

[So who is that girl?]

[...]

Gradually, the comments started having more voices.

[She’s so pretty, who’d have thought she’d harass a fan, isn’t that too much?]

[Aren’t hypocrites in society rare nowadays?]

[Maybe the problem is with that girl?]

[What’s her problem? She was just standing there, it was your wife who suddenly got up to kiss her.]

[...]

Seeing both sides about to start an argument, Chi Gui posted on Weibo.

[Chi Gui: Girlfriend suddenly appeared, got a bit carried away due to happiness, sorry for causing trouble.]

Chi Gui actually just wanted to post the first three words.

But the staff thought that wasn’t good, so they persuaded him to add the later part.

As soon as Chi Gui posted on Weibo, everyone got even more bewildered.

Especially those who came because of the good looks.

They thought they had discovered a treasure, who knew the treasure belonged to someone else?

Chi Gui doesn’t rely on his looks for a living; having a girlfriend doesn’t matter, so he posted and left it alone.

At this moment, the person involved was sitting in the car with Chuzheng, heading back.

”Didn’t you say you wouldn’t come?”

”The game ended early, so I stopped by.”

[...] Circled half the city, truly a ”stop by”.

It was Chi Gui’s first autograph session; Chuzheng took him out for a good meal.

On the way back, Chi Gui was so happy he seemed to be floating: ”Baby, I want to buy you a big house in the future.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Not needed...

”Anything you need, I’ll buy it for you,” Chi Gui said seriously, ”Everything of mine is yours.”

Chuzheng gave a perfunctory response.

Who needs you to buy things for me, do I need it?

-

Two years later.

Chuzheng completed the mainline tasks, but unfortunately, Chi Gui still showed no signs of remembering anything, just focused on his drawings every day.

Chi Gui, out of some whim, suddenly had some burgundy highlights dyed in his hair one day.

Several years passed, the young man grew considerably, his appearance matured from youthful to mature, becoming increasingly handsome.

The bright color made his features look even more refined and perfect.

”Why must you use this color?”

Chuzheng asked, not understanding.

Chi Gui shook his head, his fluffy hair swaying with his movement: ”Doesn’t it look good?”

”It looks good,” one must praise!

”...” Chi Gui’s lips curved slightly, he took a step and walked over to Chuzheng, crouched, leaning on her leg: ”Feel it.”

The sensation at the fingertips was soft and smooth, the fluffy hair felt very comfortable.

If only this could...

[Stop right there!] King’s Account interrupted Chuzheng’s dangerous thoughts and sent a task to calm her down.

Chuzheng: ”...”

Not wanting to calm down at all.

Who can stay calm with this fluff to touch!

Pissed to the point of being reclusive.jpg

”You haven’t answered my question yet.” Chuzheng snapped back, refusing to let him dodge the issue.

”I’ll tell you, but you mustn’t laugh at me.”

”I won’t laugh.” When have I ever laughed?

Chi Gui sat on the ground, leaning against the sofa, took out his phone, scrolled through it, and then handed it to Chuzheng.

On the phone was a comic character, which Chuzheng wasn’t familiar with.

But the comic character had eye-catching burgundy hair...

”This is the first comic I read,” Chi Gui placed his hands on Chuzheng’s legs, resting his chin on the back of his hands: ”It was bought by my dad for me. At that time, they hadn’t started fighting yet, but... I hadn’t finished reading the comic when they...”

Chi Gui shrugged, didn’t continue the story.

He looked relaxed, clearly not bothered by the past anymore.

He wasn’t sure if it was because it was his first comic and thus left a deep impression, or because of his parents’ split at the time.

But it didn’t matter.

He didn’t dislike it.

On the contrary, he quite liked it.

Chuzheng placed her palm on Chi Gui’s head, gently rubbed him a couple of times, then went down his cheek, with her fingertips tracing over his forehead, brow...

Chi Gui smiled with curved lips.

The young Chi Gui traversed the flow of time, gradually overlapping with the person before him.

-

A year later, on the eve of Chi Gui and Chuzheng’s wedding.

You Zixi caught them in a room playing cards.

”I remember back in the days after playing cards, these two disappeared, now thinking back I’m still mad.”

”...”

”Today after playing cards, you guys are getting married...” You Zixi threw a pair of eights: ”Darn it, why don’t I have a girlfriend yet?”

”Are you sure your sexual orientation is correct?” Qin Qiao raised an eyebrow at him.

”How can my sexual orientation be incorrect?” You Zixi protested, then realized: ”Are you saying I’m GAY!”

Qin Qiao shrugged: ”I didn’t say anything.”

”Jian You, I’m going to beat her up, don’t stop me!” You Zixi grabbed something beside him to get physical.

Jian You hurriedly protected Qin Qiao.

Chuzheng and Chi Gui, the two directly involved, sat among the noisy group, confused and helpless.

Once they made enough noise, the group finally sat back down.

”Speaking of which, Miss Chuzheng actively came to ask Brother Chi for his WeChat back then.”

You Zixi winked: ”Have you been plotting for Brother Chi for a long time?”

Chuzheng toyed with the cards in her hand, raised her eyes slightly at his words.

Chi Gui’s movement also paused, slowly looking at her.

Chuzheng slowly placed her cards in the center, her tone as cold as ever: ”So what if I did?”

Chi Gui’s lips turned up: ”Then I should thank Baby for choosing me, enabling me to have you.”

”That’s your honor.”

”My honor.”

You Zixi shivered: ”Are you guys being mushy? Not to mention at that time, Brother Chi said he thought you seemed like you were going to hit him...”

Chi Gui grabbed a pillow and tossed it over.

”It’s your turn.”

”Oh oh oh...” You Zixi quickly checked the cards in his hand, forgetting what he wanted to say next.

Chuzheng turned her head to look at Chi Gui.

Chi Gui gave a pleading smile and swiftly moved past the topic.

After the wedding, considering Chi Gui’s work convenience, Chuzheng would vanish every so often with him, You Zixi and others found it harder to catch them than rabbits.

Chi Gui and Chuzheng peacefully lived on for decades, with Chi Gui leaving first.

During those last days, Chi Gui often reminisced about the past, feeling time wasn’t enough, wanting more time with her.

”There will be,” Chuzheng would always respond with this sentence, firm and confident.

At such times, Chi Gui would quietly smile, staring at her as though trying to etch her into his soul.

After Chi Gui’s death, Chuzheng sorted through the relics and found a carefully bound, never published manuscript.

The manuscript content started from Dongyang Middle School, the first scene was on the shaded path where three boys successively emerged from the bushes, a girl stood by watching.

Then the scene shifted to the playground, the girl asking the boy for his WeChat.

After the girl left, the boy’s companions asked why he gave his WeChat, he replied—he was afraid she’d hit him.

The manuscript didn’t contain much, simply recording their meeting, being together, and some important scenes.

Chuzheng flipped to the last page.

——But I am more afraid of not having her.
