65. Bitterness
"Okay, students, that's all for this class, class is over"
"Stand up, goodbye, teacher"
As the bell rang for the end of class, Gu Nanfeng packed up the lesson plan and walked out slowly, the leader was very satisfied with her appearance, and came over to praise her a few words, Gu Nanfeng smiled and nodded one by one, and sent them away before returning to the office.
The light of dusk was not dazzling, but through the glass window it spilled on the table, drawing a mottled grid line, and a few carnations were inserted in porcelain vases on the table, all of which were the hearts of the students, and she put down the book and sat down again.
"Teacher Gu, aren't you leaving?"
"Well, I'll correct my homework for a while and I'll go."
I don't want to go back and face that cold home so soon.
"I'm waiting for my boyfriend to pick it up," the colleague squeezed her eyebrows, deliberately teasing her, a Bugatti that would appear at the school gate every day after work was envious of many people.
Gu Nanfeng smiled bitterly, "No, I ...... it myself"
"Okay, okay, you young people like to hide when you fall in love, I'll go first, my son is still waiting for me to go back to cook."
Gu Nanfeng had no choice but to nod and smile, "Okay, goodbye Teacher Wang"
As the office gradually emptied, she got up and walked to the water dispenser to get water, and glanced casually downstairs, a smile on her lips.
The two girls sat side by side by the flower bed to write their homework, looked at each other and smiled from time to time, and then the one on the left seemed to have a question, and the girl with a ponytail on the right leaned over to explain it for her, and from her point of view, she could just see another girl with a slight chin and looked at her stunned, and suddenly kissed her cheek, and the girl in the ponytail was stunned, and then blushed in the sunset.
The youthful feelings of his student days always make people's hearts flutter, Gu Nanfeng shook his head with a smile, and walked back to his seat to continue grading homework.
She was so focused that she didn't notice that the office door crept open and someone crept in.
His eyes were suddenly covered by a pair of warm hands, Gu Nanfeng was stunned for a moment, and slowly stopped writing.
"Happy Birthday, South Wind"
After a long silence, Xiao Xubai suddenly felt a warm palm, and her heart tightened, and she pulled the person over.
Sure enough, I saw a pair of crying red eyes, with grievances on my face, but I bit my lower lip and refused to speak.
So she lowered her voice to coax her, "I'm sorry, I ......"
"Aya has found me today" Gu Nanfeng interrupted her, not knowing what expression could express her complicated feelings at the moment.
Xiao Xubai's heart sank, "What did she tell you?" ”
Gu Nanfeng shook her head, she didn't say anything, but she could collapse the army.
"I'll go find her!" Xiao Xu got up in vain, with a thin anger on her face, it is not difficult to imagine what kind of trouble Aya has done to her, her south wind looks cold and lonely, but in fact, her heart is soft like a child.
After "Xiao Xubai" was together, she called her full name for the first time, "A slap doesn't make a sound"
"You doubt me?!" Because of her weak heart, she raised her voice, but her heart softened when she saw her tears rolling in her eyes and refusing to fall.
"I swear I don't have anything else to think about her, she turned to me for help because of her ex-husband's domestic violence against her" Xiao Xubai swallowed his saliva and continued with difficulty: "After all, we have been together before, and I can't bear to refuse her"
"So you left me and took her home?" What made Gu Nanfeng never let go was that she walked at the airport without hesitation, and lied to herself that she was going to a meeting.
Being questioned one after another made President Xiao Da, who was used to being arrogant, a little unhappy, "I have already admitted my mistake, what do you want?" ”
Gu Nanfeng turned his back to her and silently cleaned up her things, and tears fell on the table one by one, "It's not good, I'm a little tired, I'll go home first"
I thought it would be noisy but it was unexpectedly calm, Xiao Xubai became a little uneasy, chased her out of the office, and stopped her in the corridor.
"South Wind, you believe me, I promise ......"
Halfway through the words, under her clear gaze, she couldn't open her mouth, what did she guarantee? She didn't have a relationship with Aya? Or does she not have a trace of old affection for Aya?
Gu Nanfeng curled the corners of his lips and smiled, looking down at his toes, "You don't have to promise me anything, there's no need for this, I'm really tired, I don't want to listen to this anymore, goodbye"
Until he sat in the studio of Shiguang Studio, Gu Nanfeng was still a little depressed, Fu Lin sat on the side and fiddled with his camera, saw her holding a pencil motionless, and was a little worried about her, "Did you quarrel?" ”
Gu Nanfeng came back to his senses, because of his work, he hadn't painted for a long time, and the lines under his pen were messy, just like the mood of being in a mess at the moment.
"Hmm"
Fu Lin smiled and put down the camera, "Emotional problems are like Dayu's water control, if you want to dredge it and not block it, two people can solve any problem if you talk about it"
Gu Nanfeng was silent for a moment, and suddenly asked him, "Fu Lin, have you ever been in love?" ”
"Of course, after all, there are more than twenty people."
"Then if your ex-girlfriend is back and the current one, which one will you choose?"
Fu Lin pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and began to think seriously about this question, "It's really hard to choose, but I still think that I will choose to be with her because I love someone, and the reason for the same separation is very complicated, but in the final analysis, it's just because I don't love anymore, or I don't love as much as before."
"What's more, good horses don't eat grass, I'm a man in charge, I won't give up from the beginning, if I were to choose the current one"
His serious appearance made the corners of Gu Nanfeng's lips finally bent, revealing a faint smile.
"Fu Lin, you are a good person"
Fu Lin laughed, revealing a mouthful of small white teeth, and there was still green stubble on his chin, but he already had a manly mind.
"Don't send me a good person card, I'll mind" He suddenly restrained his smile, and his expression was a little serious.
"We can't look at a lot of things on the surface, everyone has different personalities and different ways of dealing with the world, I think Xiao Xubai also has you in his heart"
Gu Nanfeng looked out the window and traced her silhouette in the night, "I also know that she has me in her heart, but there are others, whether it is in terms of economic conditions or personal ability, I have never been equal to her, her little charity can make me full of joy, and I am probably the most special one among thousands of lovers for her."
Late at night, Gu Nanfeng lay on the bed tossing and turning, picked up and put down the mobile phone, but finally did not dial it out, and gradually fell asleep with anxiety in this entanglement.
Early the next morning, there were traces of her coming back at home, but she didn't say a word to her, Gu Nanfeng lowered her eyes, twisted the faucet in the bathroom to wash, and the rushing water washed away the sadness.
The two of them resumed the endless Cold War stage, Xiao Xubai was used to going out early and returning late, Gu Nanfeng hadn't woken up when she went out every morning, and the person she came back was already asleep, probably because she had the intention of escaping, so Gu Nanfeng didn't take the initiative to look for her.
Fu Lin persuaded her many times to find a chance to talk, but Gu Nanfeng could only smile bitterly, she couldn't even see each other, how could she talk.
I still commute to and from work on time every day, but I feel that my heart is empty, and no matter how busy I am, I can't fill it.
And Xiao Xubai was in a state of irritability all day after answering a phone call this morning, and still patiently finished the work at hand, and when she got off work, the phone rang on time, she frowned slightly and pressed the call button, and in the face of the man's cheers, she just replied coldly, I know, I got down immediately, and hung up the phone.
As expected when they arrived at the hotel, Xiao Minsheng and Fang Rou were there, today Fang Rou deliberately put on light makeup, coiled her long hair, and looked delicate and soft, standing there slim, turning sideways and talking to the man with a red face.
When the man saw her coming, his eyes lit up, and he walked towards him when he threw her down, much more mature than a few years ago, with a short inch of hair, shrewd and capable, in a suit and leather shoes, and a radiant appearance.
"Xubai, I'm back" Li Chen was obviously a little excited, and when he wanted to take a step forward, Xiao Xubai avoided it without a trace, and only briefly shook hands with him.
Even so, Li Chen looked very happy, and led her to sit down, "Hungry, I'll order it according to your previous taste, if you don't like it, you can withdraw and order it again."
"No need, thank you" Xiao Xubai maintained his politeness on the surface, but it was difficult to hide his alienation.
Fang Rou covered her lips and chuckled, "Sister is still so polite, Brother Li Chen rushed over as soon as he got off the plane, it's not how good it is to treat you so well, sister, I don't know what to be like in the future?" ”
Xiao Minsheng was obviously also very satisfied, and glanced at her again, "Xubai is like this, don't take it to heart."
"Uncle Xiao, I have seen a lot of bold and unrestrained girls abroad, and it is better to have a reserved girl like Xu Bai"
The corners of Xiao Xubai's lips slightly hooked up a sneer, you don't know where you are when I wave?
After three rounds of drinking, he finally cut to the topic, Xiao Minsheng put down his chopsticks and wiped his mouth, "You two are not young anymore, you still have to hurry up and solve the major events of your life, while both parents are still young, you can also help take care of the children, you can also relax"
"What Uncle Xiao said is that I had already discussed with my father before returning to China, and I just looked at what Xu Bai meant, and she said that she would get engaged when she got engaged, and as for getting married, of course, she listened to her."
Li Chen looked at her with unconcealable eagerness in his eyes, the corners of Xiao Xubai's lips hooked slightly, and he also put down his chopsticks, "Order it when you're ready, I have no opinion."
It was rare for her to be so sensible and obedient, Xiao Minsheng had a satisfied smile on his lips, and the guests and hosts of the meal were happy, but Fang Rou also followed in when she washed her hands in the bathroom.
"You're so compromised? Not afraid of overturning the vinegar jar at home? ”
Xiao Xubai dried the water droplets on his hands without raising his head, "I know that you did it last time, I warned you again and again not to touch her, it seems that you have been the wind in your ears"
"You're to blame the wrong person, what does it matter to me that your ex went to find her?"
"Aya, I understand her, in terms of scheming and means, it is far worse than you, but you don't have to be happy too early, frustrated in love, the mall will always be proud, the project in your hand has not progressed for a long time, it is said that the investors are ready to withdraw their capital, Xiao Gao went to talk to them, and now I will directly follow up this project, if you have time, it is better to spend more effort on making money, so as not to be an imitation"
Xiao Xubai finished speaking coldly, didn't look at her, and turned around and walked out of the bathroom, his face was completely ugly, the only thing he did against his heart after a smooth ride in his life was probably to get engaged to Li Chen, which was also the most important step in her plan, I hope Nanfeng can understand her distress.
