Chapter Twenty-Six: Untying the Knot
"Xiu Ning, what are you doing in the play like this?"
Gu Jiawei said that he was going to pull Zhuo Xiuning, but he was nailed by Zhuo Xiuning's cold eyes.
"Who is he?"
"My good friend. ”
Gu Jiawei's tongue was knotted when he said the three words of good friend, and Zhuo Xiuning twisted his eyebrows, obviously not believing it.
"Oh, ex-boyfriend, ex-boyfriend!" Gu Jiawei had no choice but to recruit from the truth.
Zhuo Xiuning's little face sank, and he loosened his grip on Guan Tong.
"Sister-in-law, don't you want my brother anymore?"
"Sister-in-law?" Guan Tong's eyes widened, and he stood up in disbelief and approached Gu Jiawei, "Doesn't this look like Lu Yuqin's younger brother?"
"Who is Lu Yuqin? Sister-in-law, how many boats have you stepped on?"
Gu Jia was not flanked left and right by these two people, and he had an abnormal headache. As soon as he stretched out his hand, he covered his mouth one by one.
"Xiu Ning, first of all, I've told you many times that my brother and I are not together. Then, Guan Tong, listen to me, my life, my love history, not only Lu Yuqin. No matter how bad it is, there was still a you. ”
Guan Tong's whimpering speech sprayed Gu Jiawei's hot air, causing Gu Jiawei to quickly let go.
"Okay, okay, I won't mention Lu Yuqin again in the future. ”
Zhuo Xiuning made a face aggrieved and explained in a low voice: "But in my mind, you are my sister-in-law, I really like you." ”
Gu Jiawei's heart softened, and he reached out and touched Zhuo Xiuning's clean head.
"Well, I like you very much, even if you don't fix it, I will always take care of you. But how did you get here to work?"
"I'm finally turning 18 years old, and of course I have to be self-reliant. It's not easy for my brother and my mom, so I can only try not to hold back. ”
The images of Zhuo Xiuning and Zhuo Xiuran, at this moment, were perfectly integrated in Gu Jiawei's eyes. Although the two brothers look like two styles, when they talk about the misfortunes in their families, they have no complaints and look sunny and calm. So that you don't even want to feel compassion, because that's blasphemy against them.
Speaking of fate, the little fisherman recruits waiters. Xiao Yu is afraid of attracting a goblin to seduce her big brother with a flower arm, and big brother with a flower arm is also afraid of recruiting a male goblin and abducting his beautiful chef.
The appearance of Zhuo Xiuning is really a perfect solution to this dispute, young and vigorous, good-looking, but harmless to humans and animals.
The farce is over, and everyone is back to basics. Only Guan Tong saw Gu Jiawei's absent-mindedness.
"Are you thinking about the kid just now?"
Gu Jiawei nodded, not denying it, she was a little reminded of Zhuo Xiuran who was far away in the United States.
Compared with Zhuo Xiuran, who will graduate with a doctorate in 21 next year, Zhuo Xiuning, who is now a junior in medical university at 18, is actually no worse than his brother in learning.
It's just that Zhuo Xiuran knows the hardships and difficulties of being a young genius, and studying medicine is not a subject that can take shortcuts, so he eased up in college.
Every time we talk about young geniuses, people always focus on geniuses, but they always ignore that they are still teenagers.
"If you're worried about that kid, just support him directly. ”
"No, this kid has his own opinions. Do you know why I wasn't particularly opposed to him calling me sister-in-law, because if I hadn't approached him as such a relative, he wouldn't have accepted me at all. ”
Gu Jiawei spends most of his time at work on weekdays, and there is no one to share his thoughts with outside of work. When I met Guan Tong today, I had a rare desire to talk, so I told all kinds of contradictions today.
"Jia Wei, first of all, I'm very happy, you are no longer hanging yourself on the tree of Lu Yuqin. But from what I know of you, frankly, you're not a person who would take care of a person's family because of a little guilt, a little anxiety. ”
"What do you mean? You mean I like Zhuo Xiuran? How could it be? We are six years apart!"
Guan Tong shook his head and sneered at Gu Jiawei.
"Hey, age is just a number. The difference in experience and vision brought by age is the difference. At this point, you are not as good as Zhuo Xiuran. He knows to broaden his horizons and try to stand on the same level as you. And you, only see the numbers. ”
"You mean, he went abroad because of me?"
"Don't pretend, you know it in your heart. He didn't choose to go abroad because he was burdened by you. It's really as he says, to become a better him. ”
Guan Tong was a little bored in his heart, how could he analyze the relationship problems for his ex-girlfriend?
"But, I didn't like him. ”
"Come on, I don't like to be taken advantage of by him once or twice. You are a masochist, you have liked Lu Yuqin, an iron tree that has not bloomed for seven or eight years, and now you have such a delicate and fragrant little gardenia that blooms casually, do you still feel abnormal? It's not that any relationship has to be brewed for so long, and it may not be able to bloom. You Gu Jiawei is not as you thought, otherwise I would not have been with you back then. ”
"Then do you think I'm a scumbag, I should still like my seniors at that time, how can I be emotional about Zhuo Xiuran. ”
"Don't, what I hate most is your infatuated character. You haven't met someone as good as me in all these years, and if you had met earlier, you would have been liberated earlier. You, you just like him for too long, and you like to get out of inertia. In other words, it is true that your love life is too pale and you don't even have a sustenance. As for you, you are so strong, you refuse to admit it, so you let Lu Yuqin be in that position. ”
After saying this, Guan Tong teased in his heart, feeling that Lu Yuqin was also quite pitiful.
Gu Jiawei lowered his head and unconsciously held the chopsticks in a daze. She didn't know whether to thank Guan Tong or resent him.
He woke her up, who had been pretending to be asleep, broke her self-righteous affection, and stuffed a Zhuo Xiuran by the way.
However, she needs such a person so much, and only by breaking the shackles can she be reborn.
"By the way, since you care so much about this child, it is better to let him come to our company for an internship. He studied medicine, so it was quite suitable for him to come to our company. ”
