Xihe: Regret? nonexistent.
She began to actively let Gu Hui attend class, reminding him to listen carefully in class and do his homework after class.
Gu Hui agreed but had little effect.
Xihe couldn't believe it: "Twenty-five points?"
I turned it over and over and read it several times. Yes, one math paper only cost 25 points.
Xihe: "..."
She put down the paper and said with a serious expression: "It doesn't matter, let's continue, there is still time, don't be afraid."
Gu Hui twitched his lips and didn't have the heart to tell her that his grades had been bad since he was a child. It was far from being able to catch up by just attending lectures, let alone being admitted to a first-class university according to her idea.
A top university? It's almost like an idiot's dream.
At school, Gu Hui conscientiously carried out the tasks assigned by Xihe. When he returned to his residence, he threw away his schoolbag and started working.
Zhang Lin saw him washing three or four cars in a row, working so hard, and couldn't help but advise: "Brother Gu, the boss is not here, you can just pretend, there is no need to work so hard."
Gu Hui said nothing, washed the handkerchief and continued wiping the car window.
Buzz buzz.
The phone vibrated on the table.
Zhang Lin called the king without raising his head: "Brother Gu, phone."
Gu Hui immediately dropped the veil, strode over, and picked up the phone: "Hello."
"Gu Hui, where are you? Mengmeng told me that a new hot pot restaurant has opened in the food court. It tastes very good. Let's go and try it together?"
"Okay, wait. I'll be right away."
Hang up the phone and immediately go inside to change clothes.
Zhang Lin pulled his head out of the phone. His brother Gu had already changed out of his work clothes that smelled of lotion, put on a handsome coat, and smoothed his hair with water. He looked so handsome.
Zhang Lin couldn't stop laughing: "Brother Gu, let us meet my sister-in-law another day."
Gu Hui: "Get out!"
Xihe waited for a while at the fork in the road and saw Gu Hui coming from the end of the road. She immediately waved: "Here!"
When people come near, they don't hesitate to praise: "Gu Hui, you are so handsome today!"
Gu Hui raised his chin: "Let's go."
Xihe immediately smiled and held his arm: "Let's go~"
The conversation came:
"I just saw you coming from the other side of the road. Do you live in a nearby community?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Hey, of course it's a surprise inspection. What if you go behind my back and fuck with some little bitch..."
"Nonsense."
After a delicious meal, Gu Hui sent Xihe home as usual, then turned around and left.
But this time...
"Are you Gu Hui?"
The man with a kind smile came over, looked him up and down, and praised: "He is indeed Mr. Gu's son, a very talented person."
Gu Hui didn't say anything. He knew that the man across from him didn't wait here specifically to praise him, but had something else to say.
Father Jiang pointed to the pavilion opposite: "Sit down?"
Gu Hui followed.
As night fell, warm lights lit up in every house, and the scarlet on the man's fingertips faded brightly. He said, "So, you should understand, right? As a father, I only hope that my daughter can be happy for the rest of her life."
Gu Hui nodded: "I understand."
Of course he understood, he had been waiting for this day for a long time.
The next day, Xihe arrived at school and found that Gu Hui had not come to class again. She called, but was hung up on, then called again, and was blocked.
Xihe:? ? ?
What kind of fuss is this?
Lin Mengmeng blinked and pushed the phone forward: "Use mine."
Xihe looked at her big black and white eyes, laughed out loud, and shook his head: "No need."
Don't rush. After finishing the day's class, I got off Xue Xihe and took a taxi directly to the neighborhood where Gu Hui lived. I searched every road and asked everyone one by one.
At this moment, she was extremely lucky that she had pestered him to get to this area before, otherwise the search area would have been expanded.
Gouzi actively helped: "Here, here, last time I smelled the smell of chicken wings from this restaurant, it's exactly the same as this one." Xihe quickly turned around, and then with Gouzi's help, he finally stopped at In front of a car wash.
Clouds filled the sky, and the streets and alleys were noisy.
Next to a dirt-covered off-road vehicle, a young man has his sleeves rolled up to his shoulders, sweat dripping from his hair, and he is seriously washing the dirt from the tires with a water gun. There are several teenagers of about the same age in the narrator, who are chatting and laughing. .
The young man's face was tense, his eyes were black and bloodshot.
Xihe said: "Gu Hui!"
The young man stiffened and stopped moving.
Several boys turned to look over and laughed: "Brother Gu, your girlfriend is here to see you."
Gu Hui slowly turned his head. Under the setting sun, the girl had a bright smile on her face, but her eyes were blurred by tears. She walked up to him and smiled ugly: "You guy, why don't you return my call?"
Crystal tears fell from the corners of his eyes, dripped on the ground, and hit Gu Hui's heart.
He opened his mouth, but his throat seemed to be blocked. He couldn't say a word, and his heart felt uncomfortable.
Xihe raised his hand and gently covered it on the back of his hand. The roughness and whiteness were in sharp contrast. The rough palm was stained with oil stains, but Xihe didn't care at all: "It's so hard to find you here. I searched for several streets. I found it, my feet are tired from walking.”
She swayed from side to side like a baby: "How long do you have until you are ready? I'll wait for you nearby, okay?"
Gu Hui said: "Jiang Mo..."
He wanted to say, don't cry.
In the end, he turned away and lowered his voice: "Go back, I'm very busy."
The water gun made a harsh noise, and the mud fell bit by bit. The boys who were ready to watch the fun finally realized that something was wrong. No, Brother Gu, why are you wearing such a dark face? Aren't you afraid of scaring the pretty little girl?
Zhang Lin walked over with a smile: "Brother Gu, just a few brothers here can wash up. You go and accompany your girlfriend."
She leaned close to his ear and smiled lustfully: "Such a beautiful girlfriend deserves to be my Brother Gu!" He gave a thumbs up, and then beeped in a quieter voice, "Brother Gu, cherish the person in front of you."
Gu Hui tightened his hands, and then said coldly: "There is so much nonsense, why don't I suggest to Brother Zhang to arrange more work for you?"
Zhang Lin: "..."
Without saying a word, he ran away.
He is not a desperate man like Brother Gu. He seems to be tireless day and night.
Playing happily is his ultimate goal.
Gu Hui continued busy with an expressionless face, as if the girl beside him didn't exist at all.
Xihe stood for a while, his feet were a little numb, he looked around and walked to a table to sit down, took out his homework and started writing.
The clouds in the sky faded, and the night gradually covered the entire earth. Cars were coming and going, and everyone was busy and panting. Xihe felt distressed and quickly went out to buy some drinks and meals.
Several boys thanked each other: "Thank you, sister-in-law!"
Xihe looked at Gu Hui. The boy was still busy and wouldn't listen to anyone's shouts.
Time passed little by little, and soon the clock stopped at half past nine. Suddenly, there was a snap, everyone looked up, and Gu Hui dropped his gloves.
Without washing his face or changing his clothes, he strode directly to Xihe and said, "Let's go!"
