CH 5

At noon, because he didn’t buy vegetables, Gu Xia was going to cook some noodles for lunch. His sister Gu Qin went out to play with her classmates, so Gu Xia was the only one at home.

“Knock…Knock!”

While Gu Xia was watching the news, there was a knock on the door. When he opened the door, he saw a pretty girl standing outside. The girl was wearing a white dress, with a long ponytail, and her delicate face had no makeup.

“Brother Xiao Xia, are you at home? I thought no one was there,” said Li Jingjing on the opposite side.

Gu Xia looked at Li Jingjing in front of him, and was in a trance for a while. He remembered that she was admitted to a first class University in his previous life, which caused a sensation in the community. Who would have guessed that she fell in love in the university and learned later that her boyfriend had cheated on her. Beset with grief, she jumped from the roof of a building, and this flower-like girl withered before her age.

“Oh, it’s Jingjing, have you eaten yet? Come in.” Gu Xia came back to his senses.

“No, have you eaten yet?” After speaking, Li Jingjing walked into the room and casually sat on the sofa.

“That’s right, you sit for a while, watch TV, I’ll give you something to eat.” Gu Xia smiled.

“Okay~”

After a while, Gu Xia came out with two bowls of shredded pork and egg noodles. The noodles were evenly sprinkled with chopped green onion, which looked particularly attractive.

“Eat away!” Gu Xia laughed.

The title of this chapter reminded me of the poems of Emily Dickinson. She’s a brilliant poet. Do read her works if you have the chance.
