Chapter Eighty-Five: Salt the Wound

"If it's the audience's suggestion, I'll gladly accept it, but what about you...... We know things that we know well, so do you have to let me pick and choose? Gu Nanqiao looked at Guo Xiaodong meaningfully.

"Moreover, you are indeed right, I am indeed a person who cannot stand up to criticism. Since you said that the performance in the spring garden is not good-looking, then let's rely on the work in the future - when my troupe has a firm foothold in the Peking Opera industry in Province B, so that you can't find fault, won't it be over?"

Speaking of which, Guo Xiaodong seemed to have found some way to win, and his slender and charming eyes bent slightly, looking at Gu Nanqiao meaningfully.

"Gu Huadan's tone is really not small...... I still want to gain a firm foothold in the Peking Opera industry in Province B, you dare to say it. It's just that it's easy to shut me up, but it's not easy to shut up the connoisseurs and the audience, right?"

While speaking, Guo Xiaodong played with the ends of his hair with his fingers made of delicate nail polish glue, and sighed casually, "I just gave you some advice, you don't have to prove anything to me, I don't care if the spring is good or bad...... But I look, Boss Ji of Liyuan Hall, I can't get used to you——"

"So what?" Gu Nanqiao sneered.

"Xiao Gu, you don't know Boss Ji's identity yet, right?" Guo Xiaodong pretended to be surprised, his eyes widened, and after exclaiming, he was not afraid of making a big mockery, "Ji Munan is the son of the Ji family, otherwise he scolded you, can there be so many experts who respond to it." Jingyao Grand Theater or Peking Opera Association, which one can you afford to offend? Tsk, I really feel sorry for you, this is just the beginning of the acting, and you have already offended Boss Ji, do you still want to stand firm, don't you feel like you are daydreaming?"

"I just said I didn't care, and I started to meddle in things?"

Gu Nanqiao glanced at Guo Xiaodong teasingly, not wanting to continue these meaningless chats, turned sideways and bypassed her, and walked straight in the direction of the road.

"It's not easy to grab the opportunity to perform in the New Year, Guo Xiaodong, I advise you to have time to worry about it for me, it's better to rehearse a few more times, save your mind and use it on the side, and smash your own signboard on the stage when the time comes. ”

"Xiao Gu, what a colleague, I'll tell you more. Guo Xiaodong opened his mouth unhurriedly, "You really don't want to know how you offended Ji Munan?"

Gu Nanqiao didn't even bother to reply, and directly showed with his actions that he didn't want to continue to listen to her nonsense.

"Don't be in a hurry to leave, you don't want to talk about Boss Ji's affairs, so I'll give you individual news in friendship?" Guo Xiaodong chuckled meaningfully, "Are you and your boyfriend in a good relationship recently, guess what I saw a few days ago - Shen You is carrying other girls to go shopping, what's the matter, you quarreled with your model little boyfriend?"

As these emotional and private matters were exposed, Gu Nanqiao's face finally became a little ugly.

"You are not qualified to discuss the matter between me and Shen You. ”

Regarding Gu Nanqiao's reaction at the moment, Guo Xiaodong was quite happy to hear it: "My face is so ugly, could it be that I said it? Yo, it's so fresh, is this a quarrel or a breakup? Could it be ...... Shen You threw you off, right?"

Gu Nanqiao frowned: "What does it have to do with you?"

Guo Xiaodong rarely gained the upper hand, knowing that he had touched Gu Nanqiao's pain, and he intensified it again.

"To tell you the truth, Xiao Gu, I still blame you for pitiing you, the workplace failed, and the love field was also empty, and it was mixed into such a situation in the end, it was really ...... It's miserable. ”

Regarding Shen You's matter, Gu Nanqiao had already tried his best not to think about it.

Recently, the spring garden has been busy, and the relationship with Su Yiyang has warmed up, so that her attention is no longer obsessed with such things as a scumbag splitting her legs, and she is not willing to continue to block herself in her already busy life.

But not mentioning it doesn't mean that this experience has been completely turned over.

Because of the shadow left by his mother in his childhood, it is difficult for Gu Nanqiao to trust and rely on a person, and when he likes a person, he will keep a little bit, which is the protective layer left for himself, completely out of instinct. In the same way, once she identifies someone, she will dig out her heart and lungs to treat him well, and abide by sincerity and loyalty.

Shen You is the person she likes for the first time, and it is also her attempt at intimacy.

The cat learns to believe and like a person, cautiously stretches out its paws to approach, puts away the sharp nails that usually protect itself, and touches his palms only with small soft pads. It's a pity that she didn't meet a good master, what was waiting for her was not a hug, and her little paw was hurt mercilessly, so she took back this trust.

The kitten's whole experience of the first trust was betrayal and abandonment, so after retracting, she only dared to hide in the corner and observe secretly, unwilling to take another half step forward. Even if you meet a host who looks good and feels reliable at this time, you are reluctant to take the initiative to approach again.

The slightest uncertainty was enough to stimulate her to return to the corner.

At the end of the day, she felt that a second trust might hurt more.

Seeing that these words completely uncovered Gu Nanqiao's scars, the joy on Guo Xiaodong's face appeared on the bottom of his eyebrows, and he finally gained the upper hand for a short time in this way, and got some kind of perverted psychological satisfaction.

Whether it was when Gu Nanqiao was still in the Peking Opera Troupe of Province B and stole the limelight from others, or now when she went out independently and ran a garden full of spring, Guo Xiaodong couldn't stop comparing with Gu Nanqiao and wanted to trample this opponent under his feet.

But after repeated comparisons, Gu Nanqiao has always been calm and light-hearted, but she has been defeated several times, and in the end, only unspeakable jealousy and resentment are left to ferment, and over the years she has become a sharp knife in the depths of her heart.

Probably the most difficult thing to accept is to have an opponent who can never be defeated.

When Guo Xiaodong tried his best to solve the imaginary enemy, but found that by chance, he actually pushed Gu Nanqiao farther and farther, and was even left behind by others, Guo Xiaodong's unwillingness to churn repeatedly, and finally completely out of control.

She originally didn't want to use Gu Nanqiao's private affairs as a bargaining chip.

But at this moment, the only thought left in her heart was to sting Gu Nanqiao, no matter what way she used, if she could make her uncomfortable, Guo Xiaodong would be comfortable.

Guo Xiaodong didn't know much about the emotional entanglement between Shen You and Gu Nanqiao, and it was purely accidental to see Shen You accompanying other girls when she was shopping, but this did not affect her to say these things at the moment.

"Shen You is really good to that girl, is it a new love held in the palm of your hand, or is it a ......" Guo Xiaodong looked at Gu Nanqiao teasingly, deliberately lengthening the tail note, ".... The goddess you've been pursuing lately?"

Guo Xiaodong originally had a little drama when he spoke, but at this moment, it was even more sharp and exaggerated because of the deliberate pause.

"At that time, Shen You was not bad to you, car after car, flowers and gifts, you two are so sassy...... But there is a saying - there is no harm if there is no comparison, whether it is a model boyfriend or central air conditioning, we can't see it, but you know it in your own heart...... Or do you actually know everything, and you still enjoy this superficial vanity, deliberately showing it to us?"

"Guo Xiaodong, are you already so idle?"

Gu Nanqiao squinted slightly, glanced at Guo Xiaodong with disdain, adhering to the principle of "those personal grievances are not enough for outsiders, just don't say anything", she didn't say anything else, just said lightly.

"Shen You and I, how we used to love each other has nothing to do with you, I don't care if he goes shopping with other girls, and how he plans to deal with this relationship after that, it has nothing to do with you...... Take 10,000 steps back, you're not even my friend, so don't take a mouse here, okay?"

"Tsk, Gu Huadan has such a big temper, I'm also good for you, good words are bitter, loyal words are against your ears, you don't like to listen to it?"

Guo Xiaodong didn't seem to be able to hear Gu Nanqiao's sarcasm, his red lips with delicate makeup curled, and he said slowly.

"It's really not me who I said, you look at your usual appearance - everything has to fight for right and wrong, saying that the good thing is that the heart is higher than the sky, and the bad thing is that it is difficult to get along, as a colleague, I can't get used to you, you really will be a lover will treat you as a treasure?"

Then, before Gu Nanqiao could say anything, Guo Xiaodong laughed unhurriedly.

"Xiao Gu, I advise you to change it, otherwise...... No one loves anyone, it's really distressing. ”

As Guo Xiaodong's mocking laughter fell, Gu Nanqiao's lips touched up and down, and the stinging words had already reached his lips, but he circled between his lips and teeth and swallowed it, and after a while, he didn't say anything again.

At this time, it was too easy to regain the initiative, but Gu Nanqiao couldn't say those words.

In the final analysis, Guo Xiaodong's words poked at the most subtle panic in her heart, so much so that the rest of the words were just a bluff, a panic she revealed in order to hide her anxiety.

Idealistic, rigid and easy to break.

Whether anyone will like the truest self, Gu Nanqiao himself is not sure. Shen You's betrayal gave her a resounding slap in the face, and how much does Su Yiyang, who is speaking soft love words, know her?

- There is no doubt that Su Dashao's current performance is all due to liking.

It's just that how much can this kind of love last?

Gu Nanqiao is afraid of fleeting and short-term enthusiasm, and he doesn't want to keep calculating how to maintain the so-called freshness and keep a relationship from fading. She has never coveted the temporary possession of the so-called "process happiness", and if she knows that there is no result, then she would rather not start at all, lest she finally suffer another separation and abandonment.

Gu Nanqiao's arrogance is so arrogant that it is exposed. But the most fragile and sensitive side is delivered to feelings.

Su Yiyang likes her, whether she likes her brilliance on the stage, or her hard-hearted soft-heartedness in life, whether she likes her guidance in the spring garden, or her sensitivity and fragility when she dreams back at midnight, whether she likes her commendable self-confidence and freedom, or likes the lack of security she has left since childhood.

Su Yiyang is really ready to be together in the end, and the good and bad can be taken as ordered.

Or is it just a whim?
