"Didn't I say..." Mu Yunian was speaking when his body suddenly swayed. Then, his eyes became dull again and he murmured,
"Wanwan, I heard someone knocking on the door. Go and see if your father is back?"
"..." Gu Xiwan shook her head in despair.
However, although Gu Xiwan was disappointed, she was extremely sure that Mu Yunian was still awake before she said the last words.
In the past, Gu Xiwan had seen Mu Yunian regain consciousness occasionally, but every time in the past, Mu Yunian's recovery time did not exceed five seconds. This time, it was just Gu Xiwan and Mu Yunian talking. It took more than half a minute...
Moreover, when Gu Xiwan came back, Mu Yunian had been knitting the sweater in an orderly manner, which showed that her mother was also awake when she was knitting.
At this time, the servant who was responsible for taking care of Mu Yunian came over and supported Mu Yunian and said,
"Old madam, you feel sleepy at this time every day. Are you feeling sleepy again now? Let me help you go back to the bedroom to rest."
Mu Yunian looked dazed, just looked at the servant blankly, and said to himself,
"Yuxuan, when will you come to see me again?"
The servant shrugged helplessly.
Gu Xiwan asked,
“How long had my mother been knitting here before I came back?”
"Let me think about it." The servant turned around and looked at the clock on the wall, then counted with his fingers.
"Young Madam, your mother came out of the bedroom and sat here at about 10:40 in the morning with needlework in hand. The current time is 11:16, which means that before you came back, your mother had already knitted. I’ve been wearing a sweater for more than half an hour.”
So, did my mother stay awake for more than half an hour this time? !
Looking at her mother tenderly, Mu Yunian felt a sore nose and her eyes filled with tears.
Gu Xiwan prayed silently——
She had nothing to ask for. Her mother was killed by an adulterer in the best years of her life, and her life was miserable. She only hoped that God would show mercy and allow her mother to recover as soon as possible and live a normal life.
…
After all, he had too much work to do. Chu Lingjue chatted with Zhou Shutong at home for a while. After receiving a call, he left in a hurry without having time to have lunch.
Next, Chu Lingjue left in the morning before Gu Xiwan got up as before, and returned after Gu Xiwan went to bed in the evening. Gu Xiwan didn't see him for two days in a row.
On the afternoon of the third day, when Gu Xiwan was working at Yipintang, Chu Lingjue suddenly called her.
As soon as the line was connected, Chu Lingjue's voice sounded in Gu Xiwan's ears,
"Do you know what day today is?"
Chu Lingjue's voice was as magnetic as a musical note. Perhaps it was because Gu Xiwan had not seen Chu Lingjue for three days. At this moment, when she suddenly heard Chu Lingjue's voice, she felt that the voice was even more pleasant to the ear. Charm...
She said without leaving a trace,
"I don't know, what day is today?"
"You really don't know?" Chu Lingjue's voice was dull, playful, and had a strange charm.
Gu Xiwan, "..."
At this time, Chu Lingjue's voice came again,
"Today is Ling Xiao's birthday. You and I will go to his birthday dinner tonight. I will pick you up on time in the afternoon."
After saying that, he hung up.
Gu Xiwan glanced at the calendar, and sure enough, today was October 10th.
In fact, Gu Xiwan had never remembered Chu Lingxiao's birthday. However, Chu Lingxiao had always been the focus of attention of the girls in the medical school during her studies in medical school——
Besides her, there are five other roommates living in Gu Xiwan's university dormitory. Three of these five roommates are crazy about Chu Lingxiao, and Gu Xiwan and these three roommates talk about her relationship with Chu Lingxiao almost every day. Things related to Ling Jue, including Chu Lingxiao’s birth date...
And Chu Lingxiao's birthday was easy to remember, so Gu Xiwan remembered it unconsciously.
After all, Gu Xiwan couldn't leave empty-handed, so she immediately went to a nearby gift shop to choose a gift.
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Chu Lingjue's car appeared outside the First Grade Hall on time. After Gu Xiwan received Chu Lingjue's call, she ran out of the First Grade Hall with the gift and got into the car.
"Boom!"
After closing the car door, Gu Xiwan felt a chill between her eyebrows before she could sit still. She raised her eyes and saw Chu Lingjue staring at her with a pair of cold eyes. She was so scared that she couldn't help but shrink. Neck, confused way,
"What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Chu Lingjue's voice was low, and there was a hint of sourness in his face that was difficult to detect.
"I just don't understand. When I waited for you anywhere before, you were always calm and indifferent. I have never seen you running towards me. Why are you so anxious today?"
Gu Xiwan was a little confused.
She knew that Chu Lingjue was very busy recently, so was it wrong to save some time for him? !
Didn't she just run a few steps?
What is she anxious about? !
Before Gu Xiwan could calm down, she heard Chu Lingjue's sour words again,
"It's rare to see you wearing makeup. Your makeup today is very unusual."
"..." Gu Xiwan didn't expect that Chu Lingjue would be so cold today. The corners of her mouth twitched before she said,
"Today a customer wanted to donate a batch of masks to our store free of charge. I met and talked with this customer today, so I put on makeup."
"Yeah?"
Looking at Gu Xiwan's incomparably beautiful face, Chu Lingjue raised his lips slightly, and cracks appeared for unknown reasons on his extremely handsome face.
"Are you sure you're not putting on makeup just to show another person?"
What? !
Gu Xiwan had no idea what was going on with Chu Lingjue today.
At this time, Chu Lingjue's sad eyes fell on the gift box in Gu Xiwan's right hand. The corners of his perfectly curved mouth curled up stiffly, as if being held by a thread.
"It's a very exquisite gift box. I can see that you put a lot of thought into it."
Gu Xiwan began to suspect that Chu Lingjue must have done something wrong today.
She opened her lips and was about to speak. Qin Yueying in the driver's seat took the opportunity to smile and said,
"Madam, you are a doctor, you should know - medical research has proven that men always have a few days every month where something is wrong. You don't need to pay attention to him, just treat him as your uncle."
Gu Xiwan, "..."
Qin Yueying looked back at Gu Xiwan,
"Fasten your seat belts and let's go."
Gu Xiwan's attention was diverted from Chu Lingjue's abnormality. However, even so, she still felt that Chu Lingjue was looking at her delicately made-up face and the gift box in her hand. Indescribably cold and penetrating...
Looking at Chu Lingjue's face in the rearview mirror, which seemed to have been soaked in a jar of vinegar, Qin Yueying couldn't help but shake her head.
well!
Night Emperor!
Only then did she become jealous when she saw the young lady buying a gift for Chu Lingxiao? The young madam and Chu Lingxiao will meet later. Isn't someone going to die of acid?
