Chapter Seventy-Three: Steadfastness

After being discharged from the hospital, Tao Xiu returned to his normal life, and after confirming the relationship with Gu Qingya, everything did not change much, but Tao Xiu and Gu Qingyan were in a very good mood, and Gu Qingyan would insist on taking Tao Xiu home to have a meal with Gu Qingya on weekends.

Then Gu Qingyan was even more cheeky and leaned on Tao Xiu's dormitory again, and was bumped into by Xie Qiao two or three times when he went out, but Xie Qiao didn't say anything, fortunately he didn't bump into other professors.

In front of everyone, Gu Qingyan would not do anything excessive to Tao Xiu, so everyone at most felt that Gu Qingyan and Tao Xiu had a good relationship with teachers and students, and no one would think much about it.

Ten days after recuperation, Gu Qingmad represented L City to X Province to participate in the provincial semi-finals, because the road is far away, so everyone can not go together, teachers and students can only pay attention to the game scene through TV, Gu Qingmad left for three days because of the taekwondo competition, these three days, except for class time, Tao Xiu has been staring at the TV, seeing Gu Qingmad defeat one opponent after another in high spirits, Tao Xiu smiled in front of the TV.

The mobile phone rang, it was a text message sent by Gu Qingfang, concerned about whether Tao Xiu had a good meal today, Tao Xiu replied to the text message, put the mobile phone away, turned off the TV, and lay on the sofa reading quietly.

At the end of the third day of the competition, Gu Qingyan stood out without any suspense, became the champion, and returned to JCDecaux University with the trophy representing the glory of the championship.

"Why are so many people rushing to the school gate?"

"Oh, your news is not well-informed at all, it must be Senior Gu who is back!" The freshman elementary school girl shouted.

A large number of girls suddenly squeezed to the gate, Tao Xiu froze in place, remembering the text message Gu Qingmad sent to himself before getting into the car, and then calculating the distance and time, maybe it was really Gu Qingmad who returned!

Tao Xiu turned around and couldn't help but follow towards the school gate.

As soon as Tao Xiu walked to the school atrium not far from the door, he saw Gu Qingfang getting off a taxi, his luggage was very small, he was only carrying a backpack in one hand, a young and energetic young man, but there was no superfluous expression on his face as always.

Principal Wu greeted him and shook Gu Qingfang's hand excitedly, "Thank you Gu for winning back another honorary trophy for our JCDecaux, thank you, thank you, thank you......"

"Bringing glory to the school, that's what I'm supposed to do." Gu replied lightly.

His gaze passed through the many female students of Degao, and at a glance he saw Tao Xiu standing in front of the middle hall, seeing the old man looking at him fixedly, Gu Qingfang smiled, for a while, everyone felt that the sun in the sky had lost its color, Gu Qingmad's smile was too rare, no one noticed that Gu Qingmad's smiling eyes were full of Tao Xiu.

The trophies of the provincial semi-finals are to be returned to the school, and the only trophies and certificates that belong to Gu Qingfang are inlaid with gold edges, Principal Wu carefully took the golden fist-shaped trophy from Gu Qingyan's hand, and solemnly put the trophy in the school's exhibition cabinet and locked it.

Those trophies are the hard work of the students he has cultivated, they belong to JCDecaux University, and the name engraved on the trophy is also a model for every JCDecaux student to learn.

"When does the national final start?" Principal Wu asked.

"On the twentieth of next month, there is exactly one month left."

Principal Wu patted Gu Qingfang's shoulder, "Okay, come on, classmate Gu, you are also tired from the dust and dust along the way, go back and rest first, the other students are scattered, scattered!" Principal Wu waved.

Gu Qingyan looked at the time, thought about Tao Xiu's class schedule, Tao Xiu should have classes at three o'clock in the afternoon, Gu Qingyan called Tao Xiu and went up the stairs of the dormitory building.

Unexpectedly, as soon as the phone was connected, Tao Xiu opened the door.

"You're back in the dorm so soon?" Gu Qing was surprised.

Tao Xiu nodded, closed the door, and watched Gu Qingfang put down his backpack, "What do you want to eat at noon?" ”

"Let's go out and eat, I won the game, how about you treat me to a delicious meal?" Gu Qingfang raised his eyebrows and said.

"Okay." Tao Xiu nodded as he thought about what to eat nearby, and when he was distracted, he found that his hand was being held, and then the tightly bound watch was also taken off, and the cool ointment was gently applied to the scar.

"This is the scar removal ointment that I asked Jiang Chen to buy for me, I don't have to buy it in China, so I waited for a few days, and it just arrived, if you want to get better about this scar quickly, don't use your watch to cover it all the time, rub it more, and let it see the sun."

Gu Qingfang's gentle voice was enough to erase the long-standing pain in Tao Xiu's heart, and he suddenly remembered that he was not so reluctant to be treated like that by strange men at the beginning, largely because of Gu Qingyan's voice, Gu Qingyan's voice was too similar to Zhou Hangyu's, so that when Tao Xiu listened to Gu Qingyan's words, he often had a feeling that Zhou Hangyu had never left him.

"Actually...... it's okay" Tao Xiu lowered his head, his slender eyelashes blinked slightly, and two small fans were drawn under his eyes.

"Now that it's all over, of course it's going to get better." Gu Qingfang said stubbornly.

Tao Xiu didn't say anything anymore, helped Gu Qingfang pack up his things, and the two drove out to find food.

After going around the city for a few laps, there was nothing that attracted them to eat, Gu Qingfang stopped the car and leaned on Tao Xiu's body playfully, "It seems that no matter how rich you are, you will starve to death at noon." ”

"Ding Le took me to eat a roast chicken before, it tastes good, do you want to ......" Tao Xiu suddenly remembered, and before he could finish suggesting Gu Qingmad, he had already cheered up, "Say it earlier!" Where is it? ”

"...... on the middle of Citizen Avenue Road"

Gu Qingfang kissed Tao Xiu's face like a dragonfly, Tao Xiu turned his head uncomfortably to look out the window, and was pulled back and kissed by Gu Qingmad.

"It's... I can't help it. Tao Xiu couldn't laugh or cry.

Gu Qingfang didn't expect that the place to eat roast chicken would be so simple, it was completely a food stall on the street, and the oversized vertical fan blew the aroma of roast chicken mixed with the smell of smoke, and many people sat together and ate with relish.

"Ding Le took you here to eat by himself?" Gu Qingyan was a little incredulous.

Tao Xiu ordered a roast chicken and a pot of chicken porridge, "It was Ye Chenming's subordinates who introduced them to eat, and it was when Ye Chenming was promoted to deputy director that we came together, and I think it tastes good." ”

"Well, I haven't eaten at a food stall in a long time." Gu Qingfang squinted his eyes and waited for the legendary roast chicken.

Because the food stall business is so good, when the roast chicken comes up, Gu Qingyan and Tao Xiu are already so hungry that their chests are pressed against their backs, fortunately, the taste of the roast chicken did not disappoint them, and the whole one was burned to golden brown, with two scissors for the guests to cut off the meat, and eat it with disposable gloves.

After the two of them divided a chicken and a big pot of chicken porridge, they ate most of it, and Gu Qingfang packed the rest and ordered another roast chicken, planning to send it back to Gu Qingya later.

"Don't be surprised, the dead girl doesn't eat much! When we were so poor that we couldn't even eat steamed buns, I bought ten of the tasteless steamed buns, and she ate eight by herself! Gu Qing said with a frantic glare.

Tao Xiu smiled, "Let's go." ”

Gu Qingyan really knew Gu Qingya enough, and Gu Qingya almost didn't have too little roast chicken packed back, Tao Xiu stood aside, "Why don't I go pack one more and come back?" ”

"No need, don't get used to her, no one wants it if you eat fat." Gu Qing snorted wildly.

Gu Qingya patted Tao Xiu's shoulder, "It's still interesting for sister-in-law!" Glancing at her brother again, "You're blind!" ”

"Ahem...... Tao Xiu coughed awkwardly and glanced at his phone, "I'm going back to school, and I have classes to go later." ”

"Wait a minute, I went to the supermarket with Huahua today to buy a lot of oranges, take some to the office to eat." Gu Qingya washed the oil on her hands, wiped it casually, and picked up a bag of oranges from the table that had been prepared a long time ago and handed it to Tao Xiu.

Tao Xiu took it very unexpectedly, "Thank you." ”

"Family, thank you for what?" Gu Qingya is a little slippery, as soon as she looks at Gu Qingya's eyes, she knows that Gu Qingyan has done Tao Xiu, and her small mouth is like smearing honey.

Gu Qingfang sent Tao Xiu out, Tao Xiu looked at the oranges in the red bag in a daze, and said in a daze: "Your sister is so good." ”

"Fool." Gu Qingfang hugged Tao Xiu from behind in front of his house, "It's also your sister." ”

Tao Xiu closed his eyes and chewed those beautiful words with enjoyment, "family", just two brothers and sisters who depend on each other, can give him such warm words.

"I'm going back to school."

Gu nodded lightly, "I have some work to deal with, so I won't go to class in the afternoon, and you will come to me after class." ”

Tao Xiu nodded, and after returning to school alone, he distributed a bag of oranges to his colleagues in the office, and finally left two on his desk, and the round navel oranges looked like Tao Xiu's mood was extraordinarily good.

As soon as Xie Qiao walked into the office after class, he saw Tao Xiu's usually expressionless face with a smile, shook his head helplessly, and bent his fingers to tap Tao Xiu's desk, "Professor Tao, it's time to go to class!" ”

Tao Xiu was startled, and sure enough, he heard the class bell ringing, "Thank you, that, you ......"

"Needless to say, I understand, don't worry, I've made it clear to my cousin." Xie Qiao patted Tao Xiu's shoulder and signaled him not to worry.

"Professor Xie, thank you very much." Tao Xiu nodded at Xie Qiao and walked out of the office.

Standing on the familiar three-inch podium, Tao Xiu looked at the empty position in the corner gently, since he chose to accept it, everything must be faced bravely, no matter what the future holds, Tao Xiu is looking at Gu Qingfang who is sitting below at the moment, his eyes are so firm......
