"Well, what about the Golden Gate?"

"Golden Gate? It was in junior high school, and I didn't know much about it. If you want to know about Kinmen, you have to go to the junior high school to inquire. ”

Gong Xiping nodded, he heard this today, it was really an unexpected thing. However, it is still necessary to learn about the Golden Gate in the middle school. When he has some basic information about Kinmen, plus the information he has obtained today, he can move on to the next step.

"Thank you for telling me so much." Gong Xiping looked at his watch, it was already 5:45, "Yo, I'm delaying your time." ”

"It's okay, it's okay, anyway, you have to be careful with the Longxing Gang, Gong Xiping."

Gong Xiping was stunned: "How do you know my name?" ”

The librarian showed a lovely smile: "I issued your library card just now, and it has your name on it." ”

Gong Xiping was stunned.

Walking out of the library, Gong Xiping said to Xi Yuling slightly apologetically: "I'm sorry, squad leader, it's so late." ”

Xi Yuling hurriedly said, "No, no, you are also for me." ”

Gong Xiping said with some self-deprecation: "Actually, I have benefited and learned so many things. ”

Xi Yuling shook his head: "No, you got into trouble to help me." ”

Gong Xiping patted her shoulder: "I just said, you are my classmate, and you are a girl, anyone will do this." After a pause, he added, "And I didn't suffer." ”

While talking, the two had already walked to the school gate. Gong Xiping looked at the sky and said, "Where do you live, I'll send you back?" ”

In fact, when Gong Xiping said this, it was completely said by an adult out of normal social etiquette. Because as a personable man, it is normal to send a woman home.

However, as a 17-year-old high school student at the beginning of love, boys often send girls home, which often has another meaning. Not to mention sending it home, even if it is like now, a man and a woman walking side by side is a very ambiguous thing in the eyes of others. Moreover, this kind of thing has nothing to do with the appearance of the family.

Xi Yuling's face couldn't help but feel a fever, she lowered her head, and said softly: "My home is far away, I don't need you to send it, I can go back by myself." ”

Gong Xiping nodded, he also understood that the little girl had the reserve of the little girl. So he said, "Oh, then be careful on your own road." ”

"Well, thank you. Where do you live? ”

"Oh, I live in the apartment next to the school, and it's a 10-minute walk away."

"It's close. No wonder you get to school on time every day. ”

The two were about to walk out of the school gate, but Gong Xiping grabbed Xi Yuling. Xi Yuling looked at Gong Xiping suspiciously, but only heard him mutter: "4 on the left and 2 on the right." ”

Xi Yuling glanced at the school gate, but didn't see anything, so he wondered, "Gong Xiping, what's wrong with you?" ”

Gong Xiping put his index finger on his lips, made a silent movement, and then walked to the wall on the left side of the school gate, and suddenly slapped his palm on the wall. I heard a few screams outside the wall, followed by a few exclamations.

Gong Xiping grabbed Xi Yuling's hand and rushed out of the school gate like a fly.

The two of them ran all the way, and in an instant, they ran far away. Gong Xiping didn't go anywhere else, he pulled Xi Yuling straight and galloped towards the place where he lived.

After running for a while and making sure that no one was catching up, Gong Xiping slowed down. Glancing at Xi Yuling, who was already out of breath, he thought for a moment and said, "They shouldn't be chasing here, just now I saw that you consumed a lot of physical strength." My house is here, why don't you go to my house and rest before going home? ”

Xi Yuling was inexplicably dragged all the way to run wildly, she was already so tired that she couldn't breathe, and her heart was beating fast. Hearing Gong Xiping say this, her heart beat faster when she didn't come, and her face turned red. She originally wanted to refuse immediately, but I don't know if it was because she was too tired from running just now, or for some other reason, she just couldn't say no.

Gong Xiping saw that Yu Ling didn't answer, thinking that she was too tired to speak, so he said, "Well, I see that your physical strength is indeed a little overdrawn." Since you don't speak, then I'll take your approval. ”

With that, Gong Xiping took Xi Yuling and walked towards his house.

Gong Xiping lives in an ordinary apartment, with two bedrooms and one living room, and the third floor. The layout of the whole apartment belongs to the typical north-south room type of Shencheng City. Unlike the old apartment, this is a new apartment built 2 years ago, so the layout of the room, as well as the ventilation and lighting, are very good.

Xi Yuling sat on the sofa in the living room and looked at Gong Xiping's home. When she came to the boy's house for the first time, she was inevitably a little nervous. However, after coming in, he didn't see his parents, and his originally apprehensive heart settled down a little.

As far as the living room is concerned, it is simple and clean. In the living room, there is a three-person fabric couch, which is soft and comfortable. To Xi Yuling's surprise, the color of the sofa turned out to be a warm beige. In front of the sofa is a pure glass coffee table with a tea set and a small electric kettle. Facing the sofa is a simple maroon TV cabinet with a 32-inch LCD TV on top of it. Next to the TV, there is a fish tank, in which there are no fish, only aquatic plants.

There were only these pieces of furniture in the entire living room, and Xi Yuling didn't find the air conditioner. The lighting is a large chandelier from the ceiling. The living room opens onto a balcony, which is separated by four glass doors. The glass door has a good light transmission, and the glass is also very clean and seems to be cleaned frequently.

Just as Xi Yuling was looking at the living room, Gong Xiping walked over with a cup of freshly brewed cocoa and put it on the coffee table in front of Xi Yuling.

"It's a little hot, let's wait until it's a little cooler before drinking."

"Thank you." Xi Yuling sat for a while just now, and his breath was slightly smoother.

Gong Xiping also made it on the sofa, turned on the switch of the small electric kettle, and a small red light lit up. Then Gong Xiping leaned back on the sofa and said, "Because I usually only drink tea, I only have tea at home." I only have this packet of cocoa powder, which was given by someone else. You're going to drink it. ”

"It's okay, I like to drink cocoa." Xi Yuling said softly, "By the way, what about your parents?" Is it out? ”

"Parents?" Gong Xiping was stunned for a moment, and then smiled bitterly, "I don't have parents." ”

"Huh?" Xi Yuling looked at Gong Xiping in surprise, and then said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I don't know, don't mind." ”

"It's okay, I'm used to it. I didn't know who my parents were since I was sensible, and I heard that they died in a car accident, but who knows. Gongxi said flatly.

Although it was easy to listen to Gong Xiping, Xi Yuling could hear the sourness. She is also a single parent, never knowing who her father is, and her mother raised her alone. I just met my father a few years ago, and I thought that my parents could be reunited and enjoy the joy of family, but my mother died of illness last year. And she became a single parent again.

However, compared to Gong Xiping, she feels that she is happy at the moment. At least, she used to have a mother who cared about her and loved her, and now that her mother is gone, her father is also very good to her. But Gong Xiping has always been an orphan and has no parents.

"Do you live alone?"

"yes, I live alone."

"Isn't it lonely to be alone?"

"Lonely?"

This sentence asked Gong Xiping's heart. To be honest, since divorcing his ex-wife, Gong Xiping once really felt very lonely and lonely. From childhood to adulthood, he grew up under the kind but strict teachings of his master. In his impression, there is only one master like his father. He didn't have any relatives other than his master. Therefore, he worked hard for the master and worked hard for the master. Every time he carried out a mission, he disregarded life and death, and completed the task no matter how difficult it was. And all of this is for the master.

Until he met Susie.

Susie is a very feminine woman, she is gentle, she is virtuous, she is empathetic. It can be said that in the eyes of Gong Xiping, she is a perfect person. And as a person who has been fatherless and motherless since he was a child, such a female surname is what he really desires. Therefore, Gong Xiping fell in love completely, he fell in love with Susie deeply, and finally the two came together, and there was the crystallization of love - a beautiful and intelligent daughter.

However, Gong Xiping, who originally thought that his spirit had something to rely on, did not expect that Susie would finally empathize and say goodbye. Since he often goes out on missions, he has never been at home, and the two get together less and leave more. Gong Xiping has always thought that as long as there is love, no matter how far apart the two are, they can maintain. But he was wrong, very wrong. Love needs to be nourished and cared for. Just like a delicate flower, it needs to be cared for and accompanied. You have to water and fertilize it, you have to give it insects and weeds. Without careful care, the flowers will wither. Therefore, Gong Xiping's love withered.

Susie left, took her daughter with her, and went with a handsome rich guy. Gong Xiping didn't stop him, he didn't even want anything, everything, whether before or after marriage, whether the two of them had joint property or not, he gave it all to Susie. He felt that he was sorry for her, and the reason why Susie left him was all his responsibility. He just wanted to make up for it as much as possible with something outside his body to make himself feel better.

Susie is gone, and so is her daughter. All of Gong Xiping's emotional and spiritual support left him. At first, he felt lonely and lonely. I finally had a life of my own, but I didn't expect to lose it again. In addition to being lonely and lonely, he felt lost.

After this failed marriage, Gong Xiping felt that he should change his life before he could pursue a happy life of his own. Therefore, he proposed to his master that he wanted to retire. The master was surprised at first, but eventually agreed to his request, provided that the last 5 missions were completed.

Although he completed the first 4 times beautifully, he failed in the last mission.

After successfully undergoing a brain transplant, the master assigned him a special task and declared that as long as the task was completed, he would retire. So, he came to Shencheng No. 1 Middle School.

"Gong Xiping, Gong Xiping, what's wrong with you?"

Xi Yuling's voice pulled Gong Xiping, who was caught in his memory, back. He shook his head: "It's okay, I just remembered something." ”

At this time, the red light of the small electric kettle goes out, which means that the water is boiling.
