Chapter 037: A Silly Sister?
After breakfast, Gu Feng originally wanted to go back to school to continue his classes, but at some point he asked the head teacher for leave.
He stayed at home because he was worried. He didn't understand what she was thinking until he got home last night. Despite the outward sadness that borders on stiffness, the loss of her mother prematurely always leads her to have strange behaviors and thoughts that are difficult for ordinary people to fathom.
"Gu Feng, how about you help me take a look at this?"
Fang Kexin suddenly appeared in front of him in a small water blue dress, she lifted the hem of her skirt lightly and turned left and right, her eyes were red but she was asking his opinion.
"It's good-looking, it won't make your skin pale, let Ah Xiang comb your hair beautifully." Gu Feng avoided the girl's gaze and answered truthfully.
Gu Feng's cheeks were slightly red, as if he was amazed.
The girl's sickly pale countenance revealed a poignant beauty like that of a withering star, as if it were pregnant with an explosion of calm to death, when it seemed that everything would burn to ashes in her blooming flames.
Fang Kexin glanced at Ah Xiang, but took Gu Feng's hand back to the bedroom, "You help me comb my hair." ”
These words made Gu Feng show a rare shy expression, "I'm not very good at ......"
"You will, you used to be watching, whatever
Comb one for me. Fang Kexin's tone was so calm that Gu Feng almost ignored the hint of begging mixed in,
He sighed without a trace, nodded, and pulled Fang Kexin to the dresser with a slight force with his five fingers.
Gu Feng carefully observed the girl in the mirror through the mirror, her eyes narrowed, until a small hand grabbed the corner of her clothes. He was stunned and took a few steps back as if he had been burned.
Fang Kexin withdrew his hand expressionlessly, and Gu Feng hesitated back behind her. Thick medium-length black hair was scattered over the girl's shoulders, and he looked straight at it, holding up a section of his hands involuntarily and stroking his fingertips. Silky strands of hair slid down his fingers, and his heart seemed to be plucked by a feather, bringing a special throbbing.
"Gu Feng, the princess's head is very good-looking, it doesn't have to be cumbersome, I like simple braids."
Gu Feng nodded, his fingers carefully tucking together the strands of hair.
……
Two hours later.
Except for Fang Boke and Steward Lin, all the people belonging to the Fang family gathered in the hall, standing in two straight columns led by Fang Kexin and Gu Feng respectively. All of them looked nervous, and even lowered their voices to let the third person hear, because in a few moments, there would be a new little master here.
At this moment, there was a sound outside the door, the sound of a person dragging a suitcase. The discussion came to an abrupt halt, as if the air had frozen, and everyone stood up straight after tidying up their appearances for the last time.
Gu Fang and the two looked at each other, with different thoughts.
"Ah Xue, come, come in and have a look, this will be your new home in the future."
I didn't see Fang Boke, but I heard his voice first, Fang Kexin's eyes darkened, and his fists couldn't help clenching. The door was pushed open by Steward Lin, Fang Boke was the leader, and there was a girl who was thirteen or fourteen years old behind him.
The girl glanced up at Fang Boke's words, perhaps because Fang Kexin's dress was really eye-catching, and the eyes of the two met unexpectedly.
One person is plain cloth, and the other is bright blue and luxurious.
In contrast, this girl called Ah Xue is out of place in a rich group, more like an intruder. Perhaps because of the poor environment in which she grew up, the girl was not very old, but her small face was abnormally pale and shriveled.
Obviously, it was just a child standing there, but Ah Xue didn't dare to look at her, and looked away as soon as she touched it. More resplendent came into her eyes, and she lowered her head, and the extravagant decoration seemed to burn her eyes.
Just when Ah Xue was stunned and at a loss, the two columns of servants who were ready to go suddenly bowed in a regular manner and shouted in unison, "Hello Second Miss!" ”
"You ...... What are you doing here...... The girl was so frightened that she took two steps back, but fortunately, Steward Lin followed in time and caught her crumbling.
Fang Boke stopped and said softly, "They are saying hello to you, let's say hello." ”
The girl was stunned for a moment, and bowed deeply very obediently.
"Okay, you can do whatever you have to do, keep doing this, you have to scare Ah Xue." Fang Boke waved his hand, and everyone retreated.
Fang Kexin's expression collapsed for a moment, but she quickly pursed her lips to cover it up. Gu Feng paused and strode to her side.
"Dad, you're back."
"Hello big brother."
Fang Boke nodded and led the girl to the two of them, "Her name is Liu Xue, and she just celebrated her thirteenth birthday. In the future, Ah Xue will be a member of our family, called Fang Xue. ”
Even the last name was changed together? It's just one step away.
Fang Kexin's eyelashes trembled slightly, she took a deep breath, and raised a harmless smile, "Hello Sister Xue, my name is Fang Kexin, welcome to your arrival." ”
Gu Feng also introduced himself.
Fang Xue nodded, unable to hide the joy in her heart. Fang Kexin noticed that her fingers grasping the corners of her clothes slowly relaxed, and the smile on the corners of Fang Kexin's mouth became meaningless.
Fang Boke didn't give them much time to communicate, he motioned to Steward Lin to take Fang Xue to see her room.
After the two left, Fang Boke stood still in front of his daughter, he stroked his gray hair, and finally spoke softly, "Thank you for accepting her, thank you for giving me a chance to atone for my sins......" Halfway through speaking, he felt his eyes get wet, and he wanted to say something, but he felt a throbbing pain in his heart.
Fang Kexin hurriedly supported him, and did not hide his distress between his eyebrows, "Dad, Gu Feng and I will not bully Sister Fang Xue, we will take care of her." After that, a haze passed under her eyes, mixed with the fierceness of people who did not belong to her peers, and it was so fast that it was fleeting.
Fang Kexin stubbornly believes that she is the only one who can have her father's love from beginning to end, and she will never let anyone interfere.
"That's good, that's good." Fang Boke sighed with relief.
……
The other side.
Xiao Bai, who was at school, looked at the empty table on the side, and always felt uneasy. She was staring at her desk in a daze, when suddenly someone sat neatly next to her, with his arms propped on the table to look at her.
When their eyes met, Xiao Bai immediately straightened up, "Chu Yunxi!" She snorted softly, not hiding her loss.
"It's me, look at what is wrong with you."
"Do you know that if you look at me, you can't see your heart?" Xiao Bai didn't notice the impatience in his words.
Chu Yunxi was stunned for a moment and nodded, "Yes, I really didn't see her, did she ask for leave?" ”
"It's been a year, and the master who arrived at school on time rain or shine, and even insisted on burning to 38 degrees 5, what made her take a leave?" Xiao Bai picked up the textbook and put it down again, "Why didn't she reply to my message, no, I'm going to her house after school to ask for clarification." ”
Chu Yunxi's eyes looked straight at Xiao Bai, and he repeated a number she said casually in his mind, lingering, "Thirty-eight degrees five?" Xiao Bai, you even remember how many degrees Fang Fang had a fever, why don't you remember the birthday gift I wanted! ”
