Chapter 56
“Where’s the little fox? How come I can’t see her in the blink of an eye?” Shen Letian and his party came over.
“Where’s Gu Xingshen?” Leng Jing didn’t answer his rhetorical question.
Gu Xing knew that his parents had found Xiao Qiao. What did they say to her?
Leng Jing felt faintly uneasy in her heart.
“Auntie Gu asked him to escort Gong Hannian.” Leng Tou answered.
Gu Xingshen was determined in everything, however, only to his parents, whether good or bad, was he almost obedient, and toward Gu Xiao Rou, this his sister, he was even more obedient.
Although being good to your family was completely understandable, but Gu Xingshen’s kind of good, always made people feel that something was wrong.
“Qin Yao, why don’t you send Xiao Qiao! So late, Xiao Qiao isn’t safe alone.” Gu Xiao Rou took Qin Yao’s hand in request.
“Don’t work too hard.” After Leng Jing finished speaking, she chased in the direction of Gong Xiaoqiao’s departing figure.
Tang Yu shrugged and followed.
Gong Xiaoqiao thought that she was alone. She didn’t know that someone had been following her in silence, watching her standing in the night wind waiting for a taxi, watching her holding a big black dog to feed, watching her turn through the window and watching her turn on the lights on the third floor dormitory.
……
It didn’t take long for the school to take a winter vacation. The next day, Gong Xiaoqiao immediately rented a house outside.
At night, Gong Xiaoqiao made a phone call to her apartment. After a long time when no one answered, she confirmed that Gu Xingshen wasn’t there, so she went back to pack her things.
Halfway through the packing, her phone suddenly rang, the screen displaying –
“Uncle Gu.”
Gong Xiaoqiao hesitated to answer the phone. “h.e.l.lo, why so late?”
Without waiting for Gu Xingshen to answer, Gong Xiaoqiao immediately said preemptively, “If you dare to say that you missed me again, that kind of ghost thing, and you make me go over a wall in the middle of the night….”
“I don’t have a key.” Gu Xingshen interrupted her directly.
After five seconds.
The door of the apartment suddenly opened from the inside, and Gu Xingshen who was leaning against the door with his back straight almost fell.
“Drinking again….” When she smelled the wine on him, Gong Xiaoqiao looked at him with a frown.
Although the last time he had gotten drunk she said she would throw him out if he drank again, she didn’t live here anyway, so she had no reason to care about him again.
“You’re at home…” Gu Xingshen was obviously very surprised. He looked at her, then looked at the messy things and big boxes in the room. “What are you doing?”
“Packing up things.” Gong Xiaoqiao replied.
‘Home’ – this word stung her in a flash.
Apart from school, she spent most of her time here, and Gu Xingshen, though so busy, always took the time to come here.
She was in a place where she couldn’t get back up on her feet again, it carried almost all of their memories for four years.
“What did my parents say to you last night?” Gu Xingshen rubbed his eyebrows and sat down on the sofa.
“Nothing, I just cared about a few words.”
“You lying to me.” He held down her busy hand.
“You know but you’re still asking me, I shouldn’t be close to you, have nothing to do with you. It doesn’t have a good influence.”
“We have always been like this. What’s wrong with us?” Gu Xingshen held the other hand that she was using to pack her clothes.
Gong Xiaoqiao stretched out her foot and hooked her slippers. “It’s not convenient.”
Gu Xingshen unkindly kicked the slippers back to it’s original position. “Where is it not convenient?”
