This time, Ming Xue Mo took the initiative to hold his hand. He lowered his head and looked at her, she raised her gaze and looked back at him, moaning: "I'm a little cold."
Gu Zi asked but didn't say anything. He just led her to the bedside and lifted the quilt for her. "Go lie down under the quilt," he told her.
Ming Xue Mo obediently went to bed. He folded two pillows for her to lean on, and she pulled the covers up to her waist and covered them. This was clearly the first time she had climbed onto his bed, but the tacit understanding between them and the warmth that flowed between them seemed to have happened countless times.
After she was done lying down, Gu Zi tried to pull a chair over to sit down, but she held onto his hand like a sticky child, not letting go. She said softly, "Big Brother Gu, I have something to tell you."
Thus, Gu Zi Wen sat on the edge of the bed and held her hand. "Tell me."
At this time, Ming Xue Mo still dared to look directly into his eyes. "Tonight's Party, we won't be going, okay?"
"And then?" He knew she wasn't finished.
She lowered her eyes, afraid to look at him again, afraid to see the reflection of her own reluctance in his eyes. Her mouth also slightly opened and closed. After a few more wiggles, she finally opened her mouth with great difficulty. "We won't meet again in the future. Just fire me today."
"Because you pushed me into the lake?"
Ming Xuemei nodded, "Yes."
Gu Zi asked with a sigh. This girl had a really big idea!
"Actually, you don't need to do this at all. It's not like your parents did anything, they just wanted to get close to me. In that case, you would have cut off all ties with me. Is it worth it?" He didn't conceal his unwillingness to part with her. There was a saying that said, 'To be able to have a bosom friend is enough.' How could he not feel regretful that he had just met such a clever and charming little girl. How could he not regret losing her without any contradictions or misunderstandings?
Ming Xue Mo knew that her way of thinking might be a little extreme, not in accordance with human nature. Perhaps some girls would be happy to see her like this, but she had this kind of personality. They could simply like him or not like him, but they couldn't have any other ideas.
"I tried to get close to him today, but what about tomorrow?" She asked him blankly, "You're also a businessman, and you know better than I do what it means to be successful in everything. Although I don't see money as high as dung, I don't want half a grain of profit to be added to our simple friendship. "I did not expect that in the end, our relationship would be diluted by those things that can be sold at a price. I wanted to keep this friendship in my heart forever, like a priceless treasure, and not let anything sully her."
"…" Every word she said made sense, and he had nothing to refute her. But what should he do, he just didn't want to part with her like that … Although some people said that separation did not mean forgetting, but he had heard that people's memories were limited. Today, she had treasured him in her heart, and after that, she had met someone even more precious. And he didn't want to be forgotten by her, nor did he want to be forgotten by her.
"Must it be like this?" "There is a philosopher in Germany, called Leibniz, who said that there are no two identical leaves in the world, and by the same token, there are no two people who are equally strong. Your parents and I will always be a little better than each other, not me, but them. Of course, I also hope that our relationship will always be pure and that there will never be the slightest hint of fireworks in the world, but … There is no fish in the water, do you want to think about it? "
If he was not someone with power and influence, then perhaps her parents would look down on him. When that happened, even if she did not take the initiative to leave him, they would still stop her from being with him. Their attitude towards him would only be these two results, either one or the other. It couldn't possibly be the purity that she longed for.
However, if she didn't have to choose between objection and annexation, she would rather choose objection, just as Aunt Yun had always disliked him. She understood that Aunt Yun was speaking from her point of view, while her parents were speaking from a point of view of benefits.
How could Ming Xue Mo be willing to be their accomplice? She shook her head and said firmly: "There's no need to think about it, my decision is already made."
Even though her attitude was firm, Gu Zi still refused to give up and tried to persuade her to change her mind. "Have you ever thought about how your parents will deal with you if you make such a decision?"
Ming Xue Mo pursed her lips bitterly, "They would never hit me." However, a scolding was inevitable.
"Maybe." Gu Zi asked both to scare her and to prepare her mentally. The way of doing things made one look completely different. Not to mention, her parents didn't really love her at all. They had just seen a glimmer of hope, and yet she had crushed them like this. They definitely wouldn't be able to calm them down just by cursing at her.
Ming Xue Mo's eyes were misty as she muttered, "Will it?"
He was not asking him, but himself. She found that she had no confidence in her parents. He shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be at ease, "Even if they do, it doesn't matter. After all, I will be leaving the country in two months. In the future, they won't be able to beat me even if they want to."
Under such circumstances, when she raised the topic of studying abroad again, Gu Zi asked if it wasn't as uncomfortable as the last time. Was it because, regardless of whether she left the country or not, she still had to leave him? Probably... He could talk to her about it naturally now, "You are studying abroad, not evaporated from the world. They can teach you a lesson by paying two air tickets."
Ming Xue gave a bitter smile. "Big Brother Gu, they don't understand me, so you should understand me. You know I have a lot of things I will do. If I don't want them to find me, they won't be able to find me."
Gu Zi nodded, and suddenly wanted to say something. "No wonder the ancients said that a woman was virtuous and untalented. She's too smart for me to deal with."
Ming Xuemei had originally wanted to wait for her to walk out of the Gu family mansion so she only kept him in her heart, but upon hearing his sigh, she couldn't help but blurt out, "When I leave the country, I'll write to you."
Gu Zi's eyes, which had been obscure ever since the beginning of the conversation, finally lit up a little. "It's a deal?"
Ming Xuemei stretched out her pinky to pull the hook with him, "It's a deal."
Gu Zi asked and held her finger, unwilling to let go. Although she said she would write to him, and although this meant that they would have a chance to contact each other again, he remembered something else that wasn't quite right — no matter how sweet the phone was, no matter how comforting the fax was, it wouldn't be enough to deal with the distant problem of being unable to embrace you, from the song "Darling, why aren't you with me".
Why did he always think of some inappropriate words when he suddenly felt like slapping himself? He decided that he could no longer allow Gu Si to freely display his skills. He wanted to give him a goal, and he wanted him to enter Xi Hui Junior High as well so that he wouldn't be like him in the future, not knowing how to express his feelings.
He also pursed his lips, "So … So, shall we say goodbye? " Sad filled the room.
He didn't know how to persuade her. She had planned everything beforehand, and even had her own plans for life after she left the country. He wasn't confident that he could change her mind …
Ming Xue Mo was also infected by the sorrow of her separation. She had reason to tell her that saying goodbye now was good for them, but emotionally, she still couldn't bear to part with him. Her first love was someone she would never forget.
She lowered her eyes and looked at the watch on her wrist. It was the one he had given her, the one he had promised to protect her, the one she would wear every day, the one she would never take off again.
"Can you buy me another meal? I haven't had enough for lunch. "
Gu Ziwen couldn't help smiling, but his smile carried a hint of helplessness. "Me too." He patted the back of her hand, unwillingly pulling out his pinky and said, "Just wait, I'll get Mother Fu to cook us two bowls of noodles. You must eat longevity noodles for your birthday."
"Alright." The corner of Ming Xue Mo's mouth lifted slightly, but it couldn't cover the bitterness that filled her mouth … This was their farewell meal, right? "Hahahaha!" "Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah!
Gu Zi asked as he walked out. He stood by the railing and shouted, "Mother Fu, I'm hungry. Make me two bowls of noodles. Add more noodles, more meat, and more dishes."
"Yes, young master." Mother Fu was not near the living room, and Acin answered for her. And silently scolded: anything more, can the bowl hold? He should change the basin.
After nearly ten minutes, Mother Fu brought up two bowls of steaming hot noodles. She knocked on Gu Zi's door and respectfully said, "Young Master, the noodles are ready."
Gu Zi asked. He didn't let her bring him in, so he went to get her at the door. Mingxue had been ordered by him to stay on the bed and not to come down. He had already placed a table on the bed in front of her, making it convenient for her to eat on the bed.
Although Ming Xue Mo was a miss, but because of her high status, she had to learn to have a good character. She never ate in bed. She looked at the two bowls of noodle soup and asked worriedly, "What if the noodle soup is spilled on the bed?" He wouldn't tell her to wash again, right? With such a big bed being washed clean, the sky would probably light up soon.
Gu Zi asked about the two of them and thought of the same thing. "Don't worry, I won't tell you to wash it."
Ming Xue smirked, "You can't ask me to compensate you."
Gu Zi asked if she was a little money grubber, and one who only allowed herself to be money grubbers, and didn't allow others to open their eyes to money. However, he liked her way because he also wanted to monopolize the money.
"I really can't agree to that." If she wanted to completely cut off her parents' thoughts and preserve the purity of their feelings, then it was not enough for her to be expelled. After all, the matter of her pushing him into the lake, to put it seriously, was enough to make her want to murder him.
Ming Xue Mo pouted, looking like she was acting spoiled, "Then how much do you want me to pay? I'm still a student, so I don't have much money. "
Gu Zi lightly scratched her nose and almost blurted out, "Since you have no money, then just sell yourself to repay the debt." However, he couldn't make such a joke again. Otherwise, if he was serious, he would not let her go so easily.
"Can I let your parents compensate you?" he asked calmly.
But she could hear the deep emotion in his voice. He was helping her to make their relationship worse. This was the result she wanted. How could she say no?
"Sure."
"Alright." Gu Zi maintained his calm expression. "Eat the noodles."
However, before he could take two bites, he suddenly stopped and asked, "If I were willing to pay two tickets, would you let me find you?"
The chopsticks in Ming Xue Mo's hand fell onto his bed soundlessly, the grease on the chopsticks had stained his blanket, she was in no mood to remedy it, she could only focus on him, slowly but firmly nodding, "Yes!"
