She Once Loved Me with Her Life (2)

The entry written on the night before his coming-of age ceremony was: I'm meeting Gu Yu in person tomorrow. I handmade a cuff link for him as his birthday gift. I hope he will like this gift I made for him, and that he will like me, the person who made him this cuff link, too.

She had all her girlish dreams, her hazy impression of her fiancé whom she had never met before, as well as her expectations for their first meeting, penned in this notebook.

Gu Yu's fingers trembled slightly.

He remembered their first meeting at the coming-of-age ceremony.

He had always detested this fiancée of his. But he was unwilling to go against his grandfather's wish, as Grandpa Gu was the only nearest kin he had left in the world. Thus, he could only go along with the engagement as long as this fiancée of his knew her place and not cause him any trouble. He would just need to marry her when she came to marriageable age.
