Chapter 30
As the most capable assistant, Song Ling will always fulfill his duties.
Fang Lan’s mother and son were indeed thrown out the door.
In front of countless workers mowing the lawn in the yard.
Fang Lan’s high-heeled shoes stepped on the cobblestones on the path, and even fell, clutching her ankle and screaming in pain.
Song Ling stood in front of the door and looked at them respectfully. When the car called at the door arrived, Fang Lan wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Song Ling.
“-Madam, you should go back first.”
Fang Lan was angry and annoyed: “Gu Xiuyi is not filial to me, how dare you talk to me like that?!”
Her voice was so loud that all the workers on the lawn looked over. Whispering.
Fang Qiming felt ashamed, so he leaned over to her and whispered: “Mom, there are a lot of people talking here, let’s go back and talk about something…”
Fang Lan finally recovered, remembering that she was no longer in the room.
The cold winter wind made her face stiff, she looked around from the corner of her eye, and noticed a lot of mocking eyes but quietly held back.
After all, people live with a face and a tree lives with a skin, and in broad daylight under the watchful eyes of the public, Fang Lan couldn’t continue to act violently, she paused for a few seconds, and stood up crookedly supporting Fang Qiming’s hand.
“I will definitely bring my son back.” She gritted her teeth and stared at Song Ling with bloodshot eyes.
Song Ling nodded and smiled, and stretched out his hand to lead the way: “Yes, madam, please go back.”
The wind was a bit cold today, and Fang Lan squinted her eyes when she raised her head. She stared at the huge gray villa for a while, like a heart There seems to be unwilling.
In the end, without saying a word, he got into the car with Fang Qiming’s support. Gu Xiuyi carried Ji Ruan back to the room in three steps at a time: “Aunt Zhao, call the doctor!” His voice could not hide his anxiety
.
Aunt Zhao was also frightened, and ran downstairs tremblingly to use her cell phone to make a call.
When Gu Xiuyi seldom loses his composure, he has long learned to control his emotions and expressions, preventing anyone from noticing the slightest clue.
But now, he can only guarantee that his actions are not flustered.
Ji Ruan passed out…
Ji Ruan passed out in his arms!
Gu Xiuyi’s mind went blank, and then he quickly thought about various possibilities, but he had no clue.
Ji Ruan didn’t have a fever or any serious illness, how could he suddenly faint? However, Ji Ruan’s various physical examination indicators also showed that his health is really not good, there are a lot of minor problems, and it is impossible to say that if any part is broken, he will suffer.
This fear of the unknown made Gu Xiuyi’s scalp tingle even more, he stood by the bed with Ji Ruan in his arms but dared not let go.
“Okay…”
Someone patted his chest, and Gu Xiuyi lowered his head in panic, looking into Shangji Ruan Qingming’s eyes.
These eyes are clear and translucent, Ji Ruan’s usual cunning and cute, not at all like someone who has just experienced fainting.
“…?”
Gu Xiuyi’s arm was too stiff to move.
“I’m fine, let me down.” Ji Ruan said again.
The voice is also very good, except that it is a bit hoarse due to a recent cough.
Gu Xiuyi’s throat was stagnant, he opened it but couldn’t speak, he stood there with difficulty.
Ji Ruan had a sad look on his brows, sighed and struggled to jump down. Although Gu Xiuyi’s arms were stiff, he subconsciously held Ji Ruan’s waist to stabilize him.
Supporting his shoulders, Ji Ruan gently pushed it away, took out the external device from his pocket, put it on, and sat down on the bed slowly.
He leaned against the head of the bed, his face turned pale, and he still felt a little uncomfortable after being disturbed for so long.
Gu Xiuyi tightened his fingers slightly, squatted down in front of Ji Ruan, and gently held up his face: “What’s going on?”
Ji Ruan pursed her pale lips and smiled: “What else can I do, I’m just pretending.”
“Pretend…?” Gu Xiuyi’s throat rolled, feeling like he was in a trance with ups and downs.
Ji Ruan was really tired, as soon as the surrounding sounds stopped, he felt drowsy while leaning on the soft mattress, and he really wanted to fall into a deep sleep right away.
Gu Xiuyi’s hand supporting his chin was trembling slightly, but Ji Ruan was so sleepy that his senses were slow, and he couldn’t devote more energy to pay attention to his subtle reactions.
He lowered his eyes and pulled Gu Xiuyi’s hand, his voice was low because of sleepiness: “Otherwise, if I don’t get dizzy, when will they stop?”
Gu Xiuyi paused, and his voice was a bit rough: “Sorry, I won’t let you in the future They’re here.”
Ji Ruan curled his lips together: “That’s the best.”
Gu Xiuyi observed Ji Ruan’s state carefully, his eyes darkened.
Ji Ruan’s complexion was really bad, his breathing was very light, his cheeks and lips were pale, and he looked too quiet and silent.
Gu Xiuyi still couldn’t quickly recover from the shock of Ji Ruan’s fainting, and touched his hand carefully: “Are you feeling uncomfortable?”
Ji Ruan raised his eyelids a little, and looked at him for a while, finally He didn’t hide it: “Of course, they made my ears ring from the noise…”
He paused, grievances gradually appeared in his eyes, and his voice was hoarse: “It’s really hard, Gu Xiuyi…”
Gu Xiuyi knew very well that this kind of grievance was brought Ninety-nine percent of her acting like a baby is the kind of crying of a child.
Rather than really referring to Fang Lan’s mother and son, they seemed to be complaining about why he didn’t come back sooner.
Gu Xiuyi was so bitter that his heart was numb, and he wrapped his arms around Ji Ruan’s shoulders: “I’m sorry…can we wait for the doctor to see?”
Ji Ruan closed his eyes, and his voice was as low as a whisper: “I just want to sleep.”
With his appearance like this, Gu Xiuyi didn’t dare to let him fall asleep no matter what, he could only pat him on the back to coax him: “Hey, let the doctor see…”
Gu
‘s old house.
Fang Lan sat on the sofa and let the family doctor apply medicine to her ankle. She fell when Song Ling kicked her out, and now her ankle is swollen very high.
She cried out in pain loudly, and her teeth itched with anger.
But her cheap son knows how to play with mobile phones, and doesn’t care about her mother at all.
“Fuck me?”
Fang Qiming sat up, staring at the phone in shock.
“What’s the matter?” Fang Lan said angrily.
“Xiao Li said he’s not coming back,” Fang Qiming raised his voice in disbelief, “This kid himself said he’s not coming back, so what’s the matter with us taking this trip today?!” “What are you talking about?” Fang
said Lan didn’t believe it at all, and leaned back on the sofa.
The son she gave birth to herself knows best, Xiaoli is the most sensible child, he must know that staying abroad for a long time is tantamount to being exiled, which is harmful but not beneficial, and it is impossible not to want to come back.
“Really!” Fang Qiming slammed his fist down on the sofa, “Look for yourself what he said! – He said that the guy named Bai also came to Country M, and he wanted to contact that guy named Bai! Is he out of his mind? There is a gun?! What does the surname Bai have to do with us? He cares more about his own shares!”
Fang Qiming’s series of output made Fang Lan stunned for a while, and she frowned, vaguely aware of something: “Which one is surnamed Bai? “
Fang Qiming “Qi” said: “Mom, are you stupid too? Who else can have the surname Bai?”
Fang Lan suddenly opened her eyes wide: “Master Bai? Bai Yue? And the Bai Yue whom Gu Xiuyi knew when he was young?” ?!”
“That’s not it.”
“Ah!” Fang Lan screamed, the anger brought out from Gu Xiuyi’s house instantly turned into excitement: “He is really my good son, Xiao Li!”
“What, what do you mean?” Fang Qiming didn’t understand, and when he wanted to ask again, Fang Lan had already called Gu Chuli.
“Hey, Xiaoli?…Ah, yes, it’s mom…You said it’s true that the young master of the Bai family also came to Country M?…Didn’t he be in Country D before?…Ah, you don’t even know…”
“…Okay, it doesn’t matter, have you been in touch yet?…Ah, not yet…It’s okay, it’s okay if there is a contact method…ah, I don’t have a contact method yet…It doesn’t matter anyway, you two are in the same place We met again when we were young, there is always a way.”
“Listen to the mother, you must get in touch with Bai Yue slowly… You know it all… Hahaha, what a good son…”
Fang Qiming remained the same after listening to the entire phone call. Yunli Wuli: “No, what are you guys talking about? What’s wrong with Bai Yue?”
Fang Lan hung up the phone, and gave her son a big look: “You, if you have half as much brain as your brother Even, your mother and I won’t be bullied like this by Gu Xiuyi and that little goblin!”
“What does it have to do with me?” Fang Qiming suddenly laughed out of shame. Fang Lan sighed, but still
explained: “What do you think is the relationship between Bai Yue and Gu Xiuyi?
“
Flying out: “Is this called acquaintance? This is called childhood sweetheart!”
She pinched the teacup with Lan Huafinger: “That monster had a terrible temper when he was young, how many friends can he have? Bai Yue is the only one! Do you understand the only one? He and Ji Ruan are just friends. How long have you been married, how can it compare to the friendship you have known since childhood?”
“Ah…” Fang Qiming seemed to understand: “So you want Bai Yue to come back and compete with that little goblin for a man?
” He said: “Is this a fight? Bai Yue has been gone for many years, and I don’t even remember what he looks like. Have you seen Gu Xiuyi mention his name in these years?” “–and I think Gu Xiuyi is quite
concerned Ji Ruan’s, the little sick man is lying crooked all day long, and he doesn’t seem to have the strength to fight.”
Fang Lan let out a soft snort from her nasal cavity: “There is no need to fight at all, as long as his mind is a little confused.”
Fang Qiming wondered: “What do you mean?”
Fang Lan sat upright, scratching her temples with blood-red nails: “White The appearance of the young master, whether it will make Gu Xiuyi’s heart move or make him like Ji Ruan more, is a good thing for us.” “The Gu family
is not an iron bucket. You have no chance because of Gu Xiuyi’s iron wall for so many years. But what if he gets distracted afterwards?”
Fang Lan raised her brows lightly, and patted Fang Qiming’s shoulder: “Are you and your brother afraid that you won’t find an opportunity to take advantage of it?”
The palm on the shoulder seemed to have magical powers , Fang Qiming’s eyes lit up, and he suddenly understood: “So it’s like this…”
“Mom, you are so amazing!”
In
the end, Ji Ruan couldn’t wait for the doctor to come, and fell asleep in Gu Xiuyi’s arms, waiting for the doctor to come for a brief examination , did not wake him up much.
After confirming that Ji Ruan was fine, Gu Xiuyi finally fell back to the ground with his heart hanging for a long time. He left the room, closed the door gently, and went to the study to call Song Ling.
“Choose a time and send Fang Lan to accompany Gu Chuli.” There
was a pause on the other end of the phone, Song Ling seemed a little hesitant: “Just now she also contacted me, saying that she won’t go abroad, and she doesn’t want Gu Chuli to return to China for the New Year. He even apologized…”
“Apologize?” Gu Xiuyi frowned, “So suddenly?” “
Yeah, I also find it strange.” Song Ling couldn’t figure it out for a moment: “I just came here this morning to play and roll around, just to Let your son come back, how can you go down and figure it out?”
Gu Xiuyi didn’t say anything, but tapped his finger on the table, and the snow fluttered and fell outside the window again.
“You find someone to ask about Gu Chuli’s studies.” Gu Xiuyi turned the seat to enjoy the snow scene, casually: “Has he been studying hard recently, or is he playing something else?”
Song Ling was silent for a moment: “Okay, I got it.”
·
Entering the last week before the final, Ji Ruan began to memorize and review day and night.
The content of the Chinese department exam is not difficult for him, but he needs to memorize a lot. Ji Ruan has been suffering from a cold, and he has a headache after reading books for a long time. He has never felt so tired before going to school.
In just a few days, Ji Ruan was tortured to the point of mental and physical exhaustion.
When Gu Xiuyi came back to accompany him to have dinner occasionally, he could still see his empty eyes, like a young sprout that had just emerged from the ground in spring and was beaten to wilt. It was funny and pitiful.
He didn’t speak at the dinner table, nor smiled sweetly at him, and chanted words from time to time while eating a bite of food. Gu Xiuyi listened carefully, as if he was reciting some artistic features of Journey to the West.
The memorization is quite smooth, without any jamming, but the voice is too low and the speech is fast, and it seems to be chanting when I don’t pay attention.
Coupled with Ji Ruan’s messy hair and dark circles under his eyes, no matter how he looks at it, he looks a bit like the kind of little magic stick who came out to bluff before he learned his skills well. In the end, he couldn’t get any money, so he huddled pitifully at the corner of the street and ate steamed buns.
Gu Xiuyi was amused by his miraculous brain power, covered his lips, put a piece of ribs on Ji Ruan, and nodded between his brows: “Okay, don’t memorize it, eat quickly.”
Ji Ruan reacted a little slowly, as if memorized It was a mechanical movement, and it took a few seconds before it stopped, and he responded with a slow “Oh.” Then he ate the ribs in the bowl weakly.
Because of this, Gu Xiuyi took over Aunt Zhao’s work at night and delivered milk to Ji Ruan himself.
He knocked on the door, and after waiting for a while, Ji Ruan might have thought it was Aunt Zhao, and obediently said “Come in”, with a correct accent.
Gu Xiuyi pushed open the door and saw the child lying on the desk with a pile of books and materials in front of him, many of which were sketched, commented and marked in red.
Ji Ruan presses down on the ballpoint pen, leans on his arm and closes his eyes to rest.
Gu Xiuyi gently put the milk on the table, looked at Ji Ruan for a while, then stretched out his hand to rub his cheek in a mysterious way.
Ji Ruan was very sensitive to any touch, so she visibly shook, then opened her eyes, saw the person coming, and immediately sat up straight with her support on the table.
He was obviously wearing a furry coral fleece pajamas, but his shoulders were still extremely thin.
“Why are you?” Ji Ruan was surprised, Mr. Gu doesn’t have to have a meeting tonight?
Gu Xiuyi drew a chair and sat down, and said with a smile, “Come to greet us about the study status of our college students.”
Ji Ruan sighed, and leaned back again: “What else can happen, just like this.”
Gu Xiuyi looked at his eyes . Qinghei asked in a low voice, “Are you sleepy?”
“Of course,” Ji Ruan squeezed the ballpoint pen, as if venting his depression, “I don’t want to take the exam at all…”
His small desk lamp was turned on in the eye protection mode, softly. The light shone on Ji Ruan’s face, making his eyelashes long and curled, with distinct roots.
Gu Xiuyi suddenly found it very interesting.
Before getting married, looking at Ji Ruan’s profile, it was said that he was a top academic bully, the king of introverts, who had to study hard all night when he was sick.
Now it seems that the packaging does not match the real thing.
The little salted fish he took home was a real student, but he obviously didn’t like reading books. Every little look in his eyes seemed to tell him that he was tired, tired, and didn’t want to read anymore.
But Gu Xiuyi had to admit that the appearance of Ji Ruan lying on the table and chewing on the grid word by word was extremely cute.
He couldn’t help but gently pinched Ji Ruan’s face, it was soft and soft, so obedient.
“Didn’t you like school so much before, why do you like this now?” Gu Xiuyi rested his elbows on the table, with his knuckles propping his chin casually.
“Is this a conflict?” Ji Ruan blinked, “I like school because I want to experience college life, make friends, go to class and play together, but not because I want to take exams.”
He moved closer to Gu Xiuyi, put a notebook under his face, and looked up at him: “Is there anything wrong with not wanting to take the exam?” The two were so close that
Ji Ruan’s hair could gently rub against Gu Xiuyi’s arm , as if he had slipped into his arms, Gu Xiuyi could clearly see his beautiful lower eye line.
The corners of Gu Xiuyi’s lips were slightly pursed, and his eyes were gentle: “Is there not?”
Ji Ruan snorted softly: “If there is, then I just made a mistake that all students in the world make.”
His tone was too natural, and his eyes were very straight Bai, staring straight at Gu Xiuyi: “And that book gave me a headache.”
His eyes were moist and deceptive.
Gu Xiuyi laughed dumbfounded and did not argue with him.
He knew very early on that whether being with Ji Ruan was reasonable or not, he couldn’t justify it.
“Okay.” Gu Xiuyi got up, sat down beside Ji Ruan’s bed, met Shang Ji Ruan’s following gaze, patted the mattress, and said softly, “Come here, I’ll rub it
for you.”
