Tao Ruan is overwhelmed, and has not recoverd.Gu Xiao looks at her worriedly, "Ruan Ruan, can't you accept…"
Tao Ruan shook her head quickly, then holds Gu Xiao's hands with a grin on her face, "I already knew about you and Taotao, there is nothing I can't accept, I just did not expect the two of you to actually.."
"Have ever likes you?" Gu Xiao said, "So you were not talking about this kind of confession?"
"Yes…" Tao Ruan said.
"Well…this is a bit embarrassing." Gu Xiao commented.
The two look at each other, and finally both laugh.
"Really…what…" Tao Ruan could not help but smile again.
Gu Xiao hesitantly asks her, "Then…would you still be friends with me and Taotao?"
"What are you talking about?" Tao Ruan lightly hit Gu Xiao's head, "We are all friends anyway." sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ Nʘvᴇl(F)ire.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of nøvels early and in the highest quality.
Tao Ruan became serious and added, "Also. I really hope that you and Taotao can be happy."
"Of course." Gu Xiao smiles.
Tao Ruan suddenly slaps her forehead, "Oh no, I just pulls you to the bathroom and even excluded TaoTao with our conversation. Will she be jealous?"
Gu Xiao wave, "No, she has a very big heart. Anyway, what were you talking about again?"
Speaking here, Tao Ruan feels a bit shy. She looks at her toes, then finally raises her eyes, glittering and so happy, "In the future, we will not only be friends, but I will be your sister-in-law…." Tao Ruan shyly informs Gu Xiao and covers her face.
Gu Xiao is also shock, "So Gu Zhizhou told you!"
Tao Ruan's blink her eyelashes repeatedly, "Yes, yes…"
Gu Xioa's voice is too loud, and Liao Taotao heard her shout from the outside. Liao Taotao knocks on the bathroom door and asks what is going on.
Seeing that Gu Xiao can no longer hide the truth, she opens the bathroom door and took Tao Ruan out and finally confesses to them.
Tao Ruan is okay with the revelation, but Liao Taotao is angry.
"What? Gu Zhizhou is your brother? Why did you not tell me about this? I tell you everything about me, but you lied to me!!! Gu Xiao, I'm really angry!!!"
When Liao Taotao got angry, Gu Xiao went to coax her. The whole dorm has a heavy atmosphere for a while. Liao Taotao completely ignores Gu Xiao until the next class. After they came back from the lecture, Liao Taotao and Gu Xiao reconciled and Tao Ruan finally had a chance to talk to Gu Xiao and inquire about the situation.
It's just a pity that Gu Xiao is unfamiliar with Gu Zhizhou. She doesn't even know that Gu Zhizhou has that kind of problem, even it they are siblings.
"When you were young, did your brother experience any major trauma? Do you know anything about this?" Tao Ruan mainly wants to inquire about the incident.
Maybe if she knew the whole story, she can have a better grasp to help Gu Zhizhou with his problem. She does not want to directly ask Gu Zhizhou, since she is afraid of triggering him.
Gu Xiao shook her head, "This…my mother broke up with my dad when I was young. I went to abroad with my mother for a while. My brother followed my father, and I don't know what happened…"
"Ah." Tao Ruan is a little disappointed.
"But there is some things….I. I hesitate to tell you…" Gu Xiao is uncertain.
"You say it." Tao Ruan brightened.
"It's Gu Zhizhou…my brother, I suspect that there is something wrong with his character…"
"Keep on talking." Tao Ruan persuaded.
Gu Xiao hesitated, "No, you will break up with my brother after I tell you, then he will get mad at me.
Tao Ruan shook her head and promised, "Absolutely not, I like him. I will follow him no matter what."
Gu Xiao mentions two things, the first one is the one she told Tao Ruan before. The night where Gu Zhizhou was talking with his imaginary girlfriend and calling her "Ruan Ruan", Tao Ruan almost forgot about this.
Another is that Gu Zhizhou was not like this originally. Since Gu Xiao was still young, her memory is a little blurry. She only remembered that after she returns to China with her mother, her brother was withdrawn and depressed.
He does not talk to anyone, he refuses to get close to people. Even is she and her mother touch him in the past, Gu Zhizhou will push them away in disgust.
"Really, he was sick, I still remember it clearly. At that time, I just want to ask him if he could share his fruit and I shook his arm, but he threw me away. My head banged on the floor, whose brother treats her sister this way?" Gu Xiao disclose.
"What happened later?" Tao Ruan only asks about the aftermath.
Gu Xiao complains, "Later, he is also indifferent and unsympathetic. He has cold face all the time. Basically, I've never seen him smile before. When we were in junior high and high school, the students in our school admired him. They always bothers me, giving their loveletters and gifts just to let me pass it on to him."
"Senior Gu was like that before?" Liao Taotao really did not expect this.
Gu Xiao laughs, "I'm not lying to you. If you don't believe me, you can ask our previous classmates although there is not many who enrolled here. I don't know when and how he arrives in the city, but my brother is like a different person. Not only is he no longer cold and indifferent, he also actively participated in social meetings and actually laughs. What is more amazing is that whoever meets him will say that my brother is gentle as a jade and warm as morning sun….Is it the water and soil in the city that changes people? Anyway, I don't reallyunderstand my brother?"
"Ruan Ruan?" Gu Xiao calls her.
"Ruan Ruan, are you listening?" Liao Taotao prompted her.
Tao Ruan nodded in daze, "Yeah, I'm listening."
There is a frown between her brows.
It turns out that Gu Zhizhou was not like this before? Then how did he became like this?
Suddenly, a memory she forgot resurfaces on her mind.
Tao Ruan suddenly receives a poke on her QQ account from her highschool tablemate.
["Tao Ruan, come out!"]
["Tao Ruan, I want to show you something!"]
Tao Ruan absentminded replied, "["What?"]
Her classmate sent her a picture, which was a empty wish bottle.
Her classmate was excitedly informing her, ["Did you remember when we were in highschool, we went to the school field along the east side and dug a pit under an old tree and buried a wishing bottle?!"]
Then the classmate continues, ["This time I went back and took a leave because my cousin was getting married. I went to visit our school and the handyman dug out our wishing bottle at that time but guess what, my wishing bottle is still intact and yours is empty. It's empty! What's going on?"]
Tao Ruan's head suddenly buzzed.
She remembered the wishing bottle.
When she was in high school, she was naive, and also had such a gullible idea the same as her table mate.
At that time, her wish in the wishing bottle was. [I hope to have a handsome boyfriend with a gentle and warm smile.]
