If she was asked to walk over with her, she wouldn't have to think that the headline of the forum tomorrow would be her again, Gu Nanfeng said coldly: "No need, is Mr. Xiao idle today?" ”

She had just solved the matter of 20 million, and she was in a good mood, so she naturally wanted to give herself a few days off.

"It's very idle, Gu Nanfeng, is it so difficult to accept my kindness to you?"

"Your kindness may be a nuisance to others, and you can't afford it"

Besides, Xiao Xubai couldn't afford to give her what she wanted.

She stepped on the brakes and parked the car firmly on the side of the road, and suddenly leaned over, Gu Nanfeng's whole body tensed, and shrunk into the seat, the smile on the corner of her lips was a little evil, but she just reached out to unfasten her seat belt.

"I'll give it to you and you'll have to bear it"

After that, he took the lead in getting out of the car and opened the umbrella, opened the car door for her, and stretched out his hand, "Let's go, Miss Gu"

Her tall figure was like a javelin at that station, her clothes were low-key and luxurious, and her bearing was extraordinary, which immediately attracted a lot of blue eyes.

Gu Nanfeng bit his lip and refused to get out of the car, Xiao Xubai's face sank, and at the end he smiled leisurely, "How long do you want to be observed here?" ”

The two of them had an umbrella very close to each other, Gu Nanfeng kept hiding outside, Xiao Xubai frowned and pulled the person over, holding her hand, but it was cold and piercing.

She couldn't help but slow down her tone, "I really don't know what you're awkward about"

There was a faint hint of pampering, her palm was dry and warm, Gu Nanfeng pursed her lips and let her lead her.

From the back, the two people are leaning on each other, their fingers are interlocked, like a couple, and those whispers can be heard without looking back.

Although Gu Nanfeng tried his best not to change his face, there was still a trace of sadness in his eyes, Xiao Xubai's back stiffened, and he couldn't bear to look at her expression.

"When is it ......?"

His roommates came up to him, talking and laughing in groups, and disdain clearly appeared in his eyes the moment he saw them.

Gu Nanfeng broke free of her hand and ran into the dormitory building, Xiao Xubai was stunned, and clearly saw her red eyes, could it be that he had done something wrong again?

The annoyance made her frown and turn back.

After a busy day of work, Xiao Xubai returned home and the table was already full of food, light and delicious, but a little like that person's handwriting.

She poked into the kitchen, Aunt Li was still busy, and saw her say hello, "Mr. Xiao is back."

She nodded, and when she opened the refrigerator to get a drink, she suddenly saw that it was covered with post-it notes, and the handwriting was beautiful and elegant.

"What is this?"

"Oh, Teacher Gu went home from vacation, and came over that day to list some recipes, saying that Qi Qi loves to eat diet therapy that will help her recover"

She looked through it carefully and found that there were still a few dishes she liked to eat, so a subtle smile appeared on the corner of her lips and turned to go upstairs.

As soon as Gu Nanfeng got on the train and found her seat and sat down, her mobile phone vibrated for a moment, and she picked it up was a remittance text message, which was quite a lot.

When he frowned slightly, a little overwhelmed, the person's text message came again.

"Year-end bonus, go back and buy something for your grandparents, Xiao"

There was a hint of joy quietly permeating his heart, and Gu Nanfeng pursed the corners of his lips, revealing a soft smile.

On the third day after returning home, Gu Nanfeng bought a washing machine for the family, and her wallet suddenly deflated in half, but she still felt very happy, after all, this was money earned by her own ability.

Grandpa looked at his reading glasses for a long time before he spoke, "Where did you get so much money?" ”

Gu Nanfeng narrowed his eyes and smiled, "Year-end bonus"

"To be a man, you have to be grateful and repay, since people are good to you, then you must also be very attentive when you work"

Thinking of the single mother she once said, the old man also sighed with emotion in his eyes, "It's always not easy to take care of children alone, and it is inevitable that it will be lonely during the New Year, so it's better to let them come over to play"

Gu Nanfeng almost didn't squirt out a mouthful of water, and quickly dispelled his thoughts, "It's cold, and the child is small, I think it's better to forget it."

"Yes," Grandpa nodded, continued to peel the melon seeds in his hand, and put all the peeled melon seeds in a bowl and handed them to her, "Eat it."

Grandma was busy in the kitchen, she wanted to do it and was kicked out again and again, although the home was small and dilapidated, but everywhere was full of warmth.

The peaceful atmosphere of the room was broken by the sudden ringing of the phone, Gu Nanfeng was taken aback, and hurriedly picked it up.

"Hey"

"South wind?" There was a hint of strangeness in the voice of the man opposite, and she struggled for a long time to make out that it was her father, whom she hadn't met for years.

After a few brief greetings, he finally got to the point, to the effect that he wanted to come back for the New Year and let the family prepare in advance.

Gu Nanfeng listened silently, she didn't know what to say except for uh and oh, and after finally hanging up the phone, she breathed a sigh of relief, and turned her head to tell her grandfather the news.

The two old men were very happy, Zhang Luo went to buy ten catties of meat tomorrow to wrap sausages, Gu Nanfeng thought about it and went back to his room to take five hundred yuan to buy vegetables for his grandmother.

"After all, Hanhan is still in the stage of growing his body, and we can't eat too badly during the New Year."

Grandma was still prevaricating, Gu Nanfeng pursed the corners of her lips and pretended to be a little angry, so she had no choice but to accept it and carefully put it in the closet to store it.

Dad seemed to her to have never been a textbook, she hadn't seen him since that twilight many years ago, his brow had long since blurred, and he had only become the word father, and nothing else.

However, there is still some excitement, after all, blood is thicker than water, and in her impression, her father should be very tall, dignified, and extraordinary, and he is the most handsome man in the world.

However, the moment he saw him, all hope was dashed, he was not only not tall but also a little rickety, carrying a heavy box in both hands, and his little daughter around his neck, which she had never had.

The woman who followed next to her wore heavy makeup, only carrying the small bag she was carrying and striding in front, she hesitated for a moment but still greeted her, and whispered "Auntie"

went to pick up the box in Gu's father's hand, Gu's father smiled and avoided it a little detachedly, "I'll come by myself, come by myself"

The man who used to be tall and big finally became timid under the torture of years and the world, and was subservient in front of his wife and children, Gu Nanfeng bent the corners of his lips, not knowing what expression to show to meet the situation.

Maybe it was strangeness, maybe it was alienation, maybe it was the hatred he had left behind a few years ago, Gu Nanfeng opened his mouth and still didn't shout out the word father, so he silently led the way in front.

The atmosphere in the back room was hot, even if they hadn't come back for many years, they still started a family outside, and they had another child, and the grandparents were also happy from the bottom of their hearts, and they took out the padded jacket that they had sewn for their little granddaughter and tried it again and again.

Gu Nanfeng was busy in the kitchen alone with an apron, looking at the lights of thousands of homes outside the window, and suddenly loneliness came to her heart, which made her eyes hot.

"Southwind is twenty this year, right?" When she was eating, her aunt suddenly opened her mouth, and Gu Nanfeng didn't know what she wanted to say, so she had to pause her chopsticks and nodded.

"Twenty is not too young, we have all started to talk about marriage there, and we have children earlier"

She was talking endlessly, spit stars splashed everywhere, Gu Nanfeng pursed her lips, "I'm still in school"

"You can get engaged first, how good it is to get married directly after graduation, and you can also get a part of the bride price first, it just so happens that your father and I want to buy a car......"

Father Gu poked her arm and motioned her to stop talking, "Hey, why are you stabbing me!" ”

The atmosphere at the dinner table was obviously silent, Gu Nanfeng pursed her lips, feeling inexplicably sad, she had the money to buy a car and no money to pay her tuition, she put the chopsticks on the table, got up and left.

"You eat slowly, I'm full"

The originally happy New Year was added to a layer of gray color because of the arrival of the family of three, and it was hard to survive until the thirtieth of the Chinese New Year's Eve, when Gu Nanfeng went out to buy things and came back, he saw the paper scattered in the house and the melon seed shells all over the ground.

She frowned, "Isn't that a trash can?" ”

Auntie was watching TV while knocking melon seeds, the old black-and-white color TV Gu Nanfeng had already installed wires, and she didn't care about saying much when she watched it with relish, so she simply perfunctory two sentences.

"Wait, scan, wait, scan"

Knowing that this is estimated that she will not sweep it until tomorrow morning, Gu Nanfeng resigned herself to her fate, and her eyes suddenly widened while picking up the scattered papers, and the familiar lead font was clearly her own "Snow Country".

When he raised his head, there was a clear anger in his eyes, "Who did this?!" ”

The aunt glanced at her casually, and complained a little that she was making a fuss, "Hanhan just painted and didn't find the paper ......"

"So you just tear up my book?" Gu Nanfeng raised his voice slightly, and the fingertips holding the paper turned white.

Han Han climbed down from the desk and pushed her, "Bad sister, why do you want to murder my mother!" ”

The child's strength was not great, but she was caught off guard and still took a few steps back, looking at the scattered papers on the table, the distress in her eyes was incomprehensible, and when she wanted to hurry over to clean up, she was stopped.

Gu's father's tone was a hint of sternness, "The child is not sensible, how old are you and still cares about her"

Gu Nanfeng shook off him and held his hand, and the forbearance that had been going on for days finally broke out, "Children are not sensible, adults are not sensible, they don't cook, they don't sweep the floor, they don't eat and play every day, are you coming back as guests?!" ”

"Gu Nanfeng! That's how you've been talking to your dad for so many years! ”

was accused by the juniors in person, or in front of his wife and daughter, Gu's father inevitably became really angry, and there was still a trace of guilt for her and disappeared without a trace.

A sneer overflowed on Gu Nanfeng's lips, "Don't you say that I really forgot, you have given me a penny over the years, since you have not fulfilled your obligation to be a father, then why should I call you father!" ”

As soon as the words fell, she received a hot slap on her cheek, she turned her head and gradually turned red, but she still stubbornly pursed her lips and refused to let the tears fall, and she felt tormented for a minute or a second.

Gu Nanfeng turned around and slammed the door shut, and her grandfather caught up with her and persuaded her, "Nanfeng...... He's your dad after all......"

Gu Nanfeng barely squeezed out a smile, "I'm fine...... Go back."

The Chinese New Year's Eve in the small southern towns finally fell with thin snow, not like the lights of the big cities for the New Year, and the streets here seem a little empty, without few pedestrians.

Gu Nanfeng wrapped her down jacket tightly and wandered aimlessly on the street, her mobile phone vibrated in her pocket, it was a string of unfamiliar numbers, she hesitated for a moment and picked it up.

"Hello?"

"South wind, it's me! Happy New Year! Song Zhixia's voice was full of flamboyant vitality, and he was obviously doing well in the UK.

Gu Nanfeng smiled slightly, "Happy New Year, Zhixia"

"How's it going, have those people at school bullied you?"

There was some noise on her side, a mixture of several languages, and she struggled to make out the voice.

"Hmm...... Ok......"

Except for thinking about her, the rest of the qiē is fine.

"That's good, then I'll hang up first, my friend called me!"

Someone seemed to be calling out to her, and she hurriedly hung up the phone after a few words in English.

"Dudu ......" Listening to the cold mechanical sound in the earpiece, Gu Nanfeng was stunned for a moment, swallowed the loss in his eyes, and walked forward as if nothing had happened.

The phone screen lit up again, flashing the same person's name repeatedly.
