Chapter 22: Aunt May
That same evening. On the dinner table.
After Gu Zirui put down his chopsticks, he wiped his mouth before telling the cheerful girl who was still eating opposite him his arrangement: "I'm going out on a mission the day after tomorrow, and I don't know when I'll come back." You practice hard at home by yourself, and I'll check when you come back. ”
"Hmm. Wan'er's mouth was stuffed with food, and she barely made a monosyllabic sound from her throat, afraid that Gu Zirui wouldn't hear her response, and then nodded her head several times.
"I'm not at home, just tell Aunt Mei if there's anything. If something happens that is difficult to solve, go to Ji Bai, and he will help you. Or go to the Gu clan and find someone named Gu Ziheng, he can also help you. Speaking of this, Gu Zirui seemed to remember something, got up and walked upstairs.
After a while, he came down again. When he walked to Wan'er's side, he stopped, and put the card he had just taken upstairs on the table, "You take this card first, and you can use it first if you don't have enough money." ”
After Wan'er swallowed the food in her mouth, she hurriedly thanked the big boss in front of her.
Gu Zirui thought about it, and said the last reminder in a very cautious tone: "And ...... Don't use your abilities. If you don't really encounter a situation that endangers your own life. ”
"Good!"
After telling him, Gu Zirui left the dining room and went back to his room, leaving Wan'er alone in the living room to continue to struggle with the rest of the meal.
Time passed quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it was the day when Gu Zirui left. In the morning, before Wan'er got up for a morning run, Gu Zirui had already taken his things and walked to the tarmac in the back mountain.
The sound of the helicopter's massive propeller engine disturbed Wan'er's dreams, but it still didn't wake her up from her sleep. She rolled over, covered her head with the quilt, arched like a burrowing mouse into the warm bed, and fell asleep again.
After Gu Zirui left, Wan'er's life was still the same as usual.
If anything, it's that no one takes her to class every morning. Gu Zirui originally arranged for the driver to send Wan'er to class every day, but she refused. She prefers to ride her bicycle to class by herself rather than by car.
The post with a high number of clicks last time had been deleted by someone in the afternoon of the same day, and even the person who posted it behind it was found out and was notified by the school to withdraw from school. Of course, the people in the school also knew the news, and everyone didn't dare to talk about it anymore, for fear that the next person to be expelled from school would be himself.
In this way, Wan'er is also happy. After all, no one would be in a good mood when they heard others scolding her. No one came to provoke her, and of course she wouldn't cause trouble, after all, she was very afraid of trouble, and more was better than less. Therefore, Wan'er also goes to and from class every day, and then exercises to improve her physical fitness.
Even without Gu Zirui's supervision, she was never lazy.
Because from the day she knew she had the ability, she had the idea of investigating her own origins. And if you want to embark on this road, you will definitely encounter a lot of dangers, and now there is an opportunity to make herself stronger in front of her, of course she has to take advantage of it.
But I have to say that the training plans that Gu Zirui made for himself are still very useful. She persevered for half a month, and it was obvious that she could easily run down three laps around the villa in the morning, and the completion of those projects in the gym was much better than when she first came into contact.
No, today Lin Chen asked Wan'er to go back to the orphanage to have a look. As soon as the two met, Lin Chen said: "I haven't seen each other for a long time, why do you feel thinner? It's a little darker?"
"Am I black?" As a girl, she is really sensitive to the word fat and black.
Lin Chen immediately reacted that he had said the wrong thing, and his strong desire to survive made him immediately change his words: "No." It is...... Looks healthy. That's right, it's healthy. In order to make Wan'er believe what he said, he also looked sincere and nodded fiercely.
Wan'er glanced at him and waved her hand, indicating that she forgave him.
Seeing that the girl in front of him didn't care, Lin Chen stepped up again: "What have you been doing lately? I heard Dean He say that you haven't been back for a long time." Is it that if I don't call you today, you won't go back?"
"Recently...... It's a bit busy. There is little time to go back. Wan'er is still a little embarrassed. It's true that I went back to the villa after class recently, and I didn't have time to go back to see it. If Lin Chen hadn't found her, she didn't know when she would go back.
The two took the bus back together. However, the place where they got off was not at the entrance of the orphanage, but about two or three kilometers away from the orphanage.
Every time Wan'er takes the bus back, the most annoying thing is to take this part of the road, because it is an uphill road, and it is not easy to walk. But today's Wan'er went up without complaining, and what is even more amazing is that they are almost finishing this journey, and she still maintains a face that does not blush and her heart does not beat. People who usually can't breathe will seem to have changed a person, which made Lin Chen startled: "Are you still Situ Wan'er?"
"Don't you know?" Wan'er replied as she walked, still walking at the same speed.
"Aren't you usually half-dead, why are you so relaxed today?" Lin Chen carefully looked at the girl who was walking side by side with him, and muttered, "This is not like you......"
I can walk on the muddy path in the back mountain, this kind of cement road is nothing. But of course Wan'er didn't say these thoughts, she didn't want to wait and explain a lot of things to the verbose Lin Chen in front of her, it would be troublesome.
But thinking of this, Wan'er's mind suddenly appeared in the figure of someone in the villa. It's been almost half a month since he left, where will he be now, and will there be any danger......
Thinking about it like this, Wan'er's thoughts didn't know where to go, and her mind was full of bits and pieces about Gu Zirui. The memories were so fascinated that she didn't even hear Lin Chen shouting at her several times, until Lin Chen reached out and gently flicked her head, she came back to her senses: "Huh?
"What do you think? I didn't hear you shouting so much. ”
Wan'er shook her head and pulled the topic back to Lin Chen: "No...... What did you just want to say?"
I said...... We'll stay in the courtyard tonight, and we haven't been back to play with those little kids for a long time. It's okay to help the dean sort things out. ”
Wan'er thought about it, and finally nodded. Anyway, Gu Zirui is not at home, so it should be fine if he doesn't go back for one night.
