95. Movements
Ye Qiu locked herself in the study when she returned home, no matter how Gu Nanfeng knocked on the door, she didn't open it, and after a while, she heard a loud noise from inside, followed by the crisp sound of various heavy objects falling to the ground, probably smashing things again, every time she lost her temper, she would do this every time.
It's just that this time it's a little more intense, and it's terrifying to listen to it through the door, Gu Nanfeng increased the force of slapping the door, "Ye Qiu, open the door, you come out, you have something to say"
I thought that I would not get any response, but the sound of smashing things suddenly stopped, and then the door was opened vigorously by someone, Ye Qiu's face was gloomy and he appeared at the door, and Gu Nanfeng took a step back.
The house was in a mess, the easel fell to the ground, the vase was shattered into slag, and the books were scattered all over the ground, Gu Nanfeng was also a little angry, "What can you say, why do you have to drop things?" ”
She couldn't control herself in a violent state at all, Ye Qiu's fists were still clenched tightly, and the gloom in her eyes made Gu Nanfeng's heart feel a chill.
"Nanfeng, let's get out of here, leave Xiao Xubai, I don't want to see her"
She hadn't thought about this problem, but she already had a stable job in H City, and a house that she had finally bought with a loan, and she had to start all over again in another city, and it was simply impossible with the current economic strength and mental condition of the two of them.
"Where can we go now? I already have a stable income, and if I leave, not to mention that the basic life of two people is a problem, your medical expenses ......"
Ye Qiu's gaze fell on his empty sleeve, and he suddenly launched a fierce attack to smash his intact arm against the wall.
"If I knew I might as well be dead!"
"Ye Qiu, Ye Qiu!" Gu Nanfeng rushed up and hugged her, and bruises had quickly spread on the back of her hands, which made people feel distressed.
"I picked up this life with great difficulty, can't I cherish myself?! There is hope when you are alive, and there is nothing left when you die! ”
She also understood this truth after walking around the ghost gate, and now Ye Qiu is the same as she was back then, all thoughts are lost.
After struggling, Ye Qiu slumped in her arms, and her eyes were covered with a layer of mist, "But Teacher Gu, you don't love me...... You only have Xiao Xubai in your eyes...... Why save me...... Wouldn't it be nice for me to die? ”
When he heard that person's name, there was a faint pain in his heart, Gu Nanfeng closed his eyes slightly, "I saved you because you are my friend, and it is impossible for me to stand by and watch, as for her...... Give me some time."
The injuries, pains, and tortures that Xiao Xubai gave her came to mind one after another, making Gu Nanfeng slowly wet his eyes, and forced back little by little.
Ye Qiu calmed down and slowly hugged her, burying his head in her neck socket, Gu Nanfeng felt a burst of warmth, and finally raised his hand to caress her back.
"South Wind, I want to be nice with you"
Gu Nanfeng blinked his eyes and responded softly, "Hmm"
After tidying up the messy room and watching her fall asleep, Gu Nanfeng hurriedly took the key and rushed to school to work.
What she didn't know was that at the moment she closed the door, Ye Qiu opened her eyes, rolled over from the bed, and the whole person was unexpectedly calm, and took out a bag of Wen Jiàn from the drawer of the bedside table, and poured it all on the bed to look carefully.
There is a photo of Ming Hao lying on the ground, his head covered in blood, and Gu Nanfeng standing next to him in despair, still holding half a broken beer bottle in his hand, with panic on his young face.
Then there was the back of her being taken into the police car, Ye Qiu remembered what the woman said, "At that time, Xiao Xubai was fiercely pursuing Gu Nanfeng, how could he abandon it, plus those gossips in the school were all made by him, so he naturally wanted to take this breath for her."
"Her methods have always been vicious, at first she just wanted your brother to sit in prison for a few years to teach a lesson, who knew that your brother actually stabbed her with a knife after being caught, although the injury was not very serious, but how could the arrogant President Xiao not hold a grudge"
"Of course, it's a fact that your brother is taking drugs, otherwise it wouldn't have progressed so smoothly, now you should understand the ins and outs of this matter, it's just to please the woman you like and let your family ruin, do you think this revenge should be avenged?"
Ye Qiu clenched his teeth, his fists creaked, and the ruthlessness on his face flashed, and he quickly calmed down.
"Grandma, I miss you so much, when will you wake up?" Gu Nanfeng pressed his face to her chest, barely feeling a trace of ups and downs, only the electrocardiogram still showed traces of her survival.
Only by her grandmother's side can she feel the long-lost tranquility, which is from the family affection in the blood, and it is also the heaviness precipitated by more than 20 years of nurturing, Gu Nanfeng closed his eyes and relaxed himself for a while.
"Grandma, sometimes I'm really confused, I don't know what to do now, I want to start over, but I ......"
I can't forget the traces that Xiao Xubai left on her body, and I can't treat Ye Qiu wholeheartedly, which is not a kind of torture for the three of them.
"If only I could lose my memory," Gu Nanfeng muttered to himself, and this qiē all fell into a pair of gentle eyes outside the window.
Xiao Xubai held on to the window frame and was silent for a long time, his gaze was always gentle and calm, lingering on her, reluctant to move the slightest.
Until the twilight, she fell asleep on her grandmother's chest, her face still had a deep tiredness, and she couldn't sleep well in her dreams, frowning.
Xiao Xubai looked at it for a long time, then turned around and walked towards the toll office.
"Miss Gu, you have paid off your nursing fees for this month, and you don't have to pay it again until next year" Gu Nanfeng froze in place as he pulled out his credit card, and slowly took it back, knowing who paid it without thinking about it, who else but her.
It's just that this silent gesture of favor made her feel uneasy, after all, they have nothing to do with each other now.
The back of the person in the depths of the corridor was slightly sparse, the side face was delicate and charming, the sun shone on the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, the appearance of smoking had a hint of smoke and flattery, and the white fingertips were moist and transparent in the sun, even though she was thirty years old but still so beautiful, it was no wonder that someone would take a fancy to her.
Unconsciously, Gu Nanfeng stared at her for a long time, and noticed that someone was looking at him, Xiao Xubai came back to his senses, quickly extinguished the cigarette in his hand, and took three steps and two steps to meet him.
Gu Nanfeng took a step back slightly, the two of them looked at each other without saying a word, or she opened her mouth first, "How is grandma, is it better?" ”
"It's still the same, you shouldn't be less than me" Gu Nanfeng tilted his head slightly, staggering her gaze.
"I don't think I have eaten lunch yet, why don't we go to dinner together, I'm still hungry."
In fact, Xiao Xubai is very gentle when he is not cold, and that kind of smile emanates from the inside out, because the sincerity of his words can be more infectious.
"You...... Still smoking? Gu Nanfeng didn't answer the question.
Xiao Xubai coughed lightly twice to hide the unnaturalness of being caught by her, "I quit when I was with you, and then I smoked again when I was under pressure at work."
The loneliness of those nights after she left was helpless and had nowhere to fill, so she could only sit until dawn, numb herself with cigarettes and alcohol, and hope that she would enter her dreams.
"After all, I'm not young anymore, I can smoke a little less, it's not good for my health"
Gu Nanfeng lowered his head and stared at his toes, he didn't know why this sentence suddenly came out, he bit his lower lip as soon as he blurted out the words, and a few wisps of red flew on his face.
Why do you care about her involuntarily......
Xiao Xubai chuckled, and there was a trace of emotion on his face, "You still care about me"
No matter how much she denied it, there was a constant bond between them after all.
Gu Nanfeng mustered up the courage to meet her gaze, but it was unexpectedly gentle and tolerant, and those eyes were full of too much tenderness, as if they were in a sea of stars, which made people extremely warm.
"I ...... I'll go first" Gu Nanfeng began to stammer, didn't look at her again, lowered his head and turned around and left.
"Wait" Xiao Xubai strode after her, "Didn't I even say thank you for helping you?" ”
Gu Nanfeng paused, his face slowly turned cold, "So what do you want?" ”
Xiao Xubai waved her hand again and again to know that she had misunderstood what she meant, "I want you to have a meal with me, it's as simple as that"
"What do you want to eat?" Xiao Xubai handed her the menu, and Gu Nanfeng pushed it back, "Feel free"
Seeing that she didn't want to care about herself, Xiao Xubai shook her head and smiled, and didn't care too much, and after flipping through the menu at random and reporting a list of the names of her favorite dishes, she handed over her credit card.
When eating, he always felt that there was a burning gaze falling on him, Gu Nanfeng frowned slightly and put down his chopsticks, "Can you eat well?" ”
Xiao Xubai coughed lightly and retracted his gaze, "Haven't you heard of beautiful food?" ”
Can't hug or kiss, can't you still watch it?
“……”
knew that this would be the result, Gu Nanfeng lowered his head and ate silently with a sullen stomach, but that person was still serving vegetables for her, and his attitude was always warm and polite, so that she couldn't get angry.
In general, it was a pleasant dinner time, Xiao Xubai didn't mention anything about the past, she didn't talk about her current life, she ate more and talked less, basically she was looking for a topic, cleverly avoiding the current relationship between Ye Qiu and the two of them, and the process of getting along like an old friend made her slowly relax.
"I'll take you home, it's not good to take a taxi at this point now"
After eating, Gu Nanfeng politely refused her request to send herself home, and when she stood on the side of the road and parked, she still parked the car, parked in front of her, and slowly rolled down the window.
"Let's go, I won't eat you again" Xiao Xubai took the initiative to open the car door for her, Gu Nanfeng pursed her lips, hesitated for a moment and sat in.
"Okay"
After returning home, Ye Qiu was unexpectedly calm, and didn't ask her why she came home so late, the door of the study was open, she sat quietly at the table and painted, and when she heard the sound of the door opening, she just said lightly, "Are you back, have you eaten?" ”
Gu Nanfeng carefully changed his shoes at the entrance, "Well, I've eaten, have you eaten, if not, I'll cook."
"The takeaway ordered, but the portion is a little small"
In order to prevent her from going hungry at home alone, Gu Nanfeng would leave various amounts of cash at home every morning before going to work in case of emergency.
Gu Nanfeng smiled, "That'...... I'll go make some supper again."
Ye Qiu still turned his back to her and answered, "Hmm"
Gu Nanfeng breathed a sigh of relief and entered the kitchen, searching for any other ingredients, she hadn't gone grocery shopping for many days, the refrigerator was empty, she thought about it and pulled out a bag of quick-frozen dumplings from the bottom, and there happened to be rice wine, just to make wine-stuffed dumplings.
From the crooked lines at the beginning to the present has begun to take shape, Ye Qiu's left hand is getting easier and easier, Gu Nanfeng is overjoyed in his eyes, and puts the bowl in her hand.
"It's so good, after a few days, the prosthesis will be fitted and my right hand will be able to move."
Ye Qiu's hand holding the pencil stiffened, then let go without a trace, put the pencil on the table, picked up the spoon and tasted it.
"Well, it's delicious, you can taste it too"
"No, I'll go prepare for class, you finish painting and rest early"
Gu Nanfeng smiled softly on the corner of her lips, gently closed the door for her, returned to the sofa and spread out the textbook and began to write the lesson plan, I don't know why I felt extra relieved this night.
Xiao Xubai inadvertently looked up when she was working, and it was getting closer and closer to the day she circled the red pen on the calendar, put down the pen and thought for a moment, a little anxious and didn't know what gift to give her, and it happened that the mobile phone lit up at this time.
Yunjin: "Have you eaten?" ”
She has always spoken very bluntly, and when she looked at the time, she probably just got off work, but she did have something to do today.
"No, there's going to be a meeting later"
Two white eyes were thrown over there, and Xiao Xubai couldn't help laughing, "What do you say is the best birthday gift for girls?" ”
Yun Jin looked at the message on his phone and was happy, "Don't tell me that you haven't given her a gift before?" ”
Of course, it has been delivered, from small jewelry bags to sports cars and houses, but Gu Nanfeng is not a material person, she accepted it when she gave it, and she didn't look very happy.
Xiao Xubai hesitated for a while before knocking out the next line of words, "Send it"
In fact, she prepared a lot of gifts for her during that trip to Seychelles, but the two of them eventually missed it, and she didn't give those things out.
"Gifts don't have to be valuable, the most important thing is to do what they like, and you have to be careful."
It seems that Yunjin is still a master of love, Xiao Xubai put down his mobile phone, he already had a plan in his heart, and now he thinks that the years he has been together have been her birthday, and he really owes her a lot, and he can't wait to make it all up to her, but she also needs to be willing to accept it.
Thinking of this, the smile on her lips had a hint of bitterness, Xiao Gao knocked lightly on the door outside, "Mr. Xiao"
"Come in"
Xiao Xubai turned up, Xiao Gao took out a photo from a stack of essays and handed it to her, "The person we sent to follow Fang Rou found out that she and Ye Qiu had met."
Xiao Xubai's face became solemn, "What is she going to do with Ye Qiu?" ”
Xiao Gao shook his head, "I don't know, I'm afraid that Fang Rou will find out, and they don't dare to get too close."
Xiao Xubai's brows tightened, and he faintly felt unusual, but he couldn't say anything wrong, "Pay close attention to her whereabouts, it would be better if you could hear their conversation"
This time, she would never allow anyone to hurt Nanfeng again, not even Ye Qiu.
