The person Gu Luoqi had loved for over a decade got married! She originally intended to find a quiet place to grieve alone, but unexpectedly, she was hit by a car.
Being hit by the car wasn...
"Your room?" Qi Sheng asked casually.
His voice was very casual, as if he didn't care about anything.
"Mmm." If not in her room, where else could she be?
"Then take it yourself." Qi Sheng's delicate brows furrowed slightly, clearly showing some resistance to Gu Luoqi's request.
In any case, it wouldn't be appropriate to go into her room, so he refused without even thinking about it.
Gu Luoxi: Are you sure you're not feeling well, and it's not just an excuse you don't want to make?
“I need it this week!” she said, raising her voice slightly.
"What does that have to do with me?" Qi Sheng hung up the phone as soon as he finished speaking, giving Gu Luoqi no chance to react.
Gu Luoqi: "..." Does he have a grudge against her?
I don't think her request was excessive; it was just a convenient thing to do.
However, you can't blame anyone else for your own lack of memory; you can only accept your bad luck.
Seeing her huffy expression, Li Mingya subconsciously poked her cheek. Hmm, it was as soft as he had imagined.
Gu Luoqi looked puzzled. "What's wrong?"
"Did someone make you angry?" Li Mingya asked with a slight smile. Her roommate seemed to be experiencing a lot of emotional ups and downs.
Although Gu Luoxi got angry just thinking about it, she said, "It's nothing."
"Then let's go eat breakfast at that shop you mentioned earlier." Li Mingya could see through her insincerity, but she didn't call her out on it.
"Okay, it's my treat today!" Gu Luoqi decided to wait and argue with Qi Sheng about the food later.
"Host, weren't you just acting like you were going to die, saying you wouldn't be allowed to move another inch?" The system was a little confused by her behavior.
Gu Luoqi said matter-of-factly, "You wouldn't understand the ways of a freeloader." If it were anything else, that would certainly be true, but when it comes to freeloading, sorry, she'd have to crawl there even if she had to today.
This is her awareness and persistence as a person who takes responsibility.
System: It's impressed, really. If it put this effort into studying, would it still be a poor student after all this time?
Normally, Gu Luoqi would definitely be considered terrible with directions, but if there's a shop with delicious food, she can find it even by following the smell.
She led Li Mingya through a maze of turns into a small alley, running incredibly fast, as if she weren't the one who had just been about to die on the playground.
"By the way, how did you find these places?" Li Mingya asked with curiosity in his eyes.
It was so remote that she didn't even feel like going in to take a look when she passed by this alley.
"Little Orange and I share a common hobby, which is eating," Gu Luoqi said with considerable pride.
Back in the day, she and Xiao Chengzi were incredibly dedicated to finding the best food in the country.
Li Mingya's lips twitched. "You guys are really amazing." Besides that, she couldn't find any other words to express her current feelings.
Gu Luoqi walked into the store with an air of 'imposing presence' and said with great gusto, 'Boss, put up all your shop's signs!'
This shop specializes in breakfast, and the prices aren't high, which is why she dares to be so assertive.
Li Mingya tugged at her sleeve. "We can't finish this, can we?" she said, a hint of worry on her face.
Gu Luoqi's eyes flickered slightly as she looked at her with a smile, "You underestimate me too much."
This shop doesn't have many varieties to begin with, and the portions are just this small. When she and Xiao Chengzi came, they had to order two of each item.
Seeing this, Li Mingya gave up trying to persuade her.
As it turned out, Gu Luoqi was right. An hour later, Gu Luoqi came out, her belly bulging. She rubbed her round belly, her eyes slightly narrowed with a smile, "So happy."
Li Mingya followed behind her slowly. The food here was really good, and she, who usually doesn't like to eat much, ate more than usual.
She watched Gu Luoxi's retreating figure with a smile in her eyes. This person in front of her seemed quite different from others, quite different from the image of a gentle and kind girl in other people's eyes. They were clearly two different kinds of people, but strangely, she didn't dislike her.
"You're eating too little, I feel embarrassed," Gu Luoqi said as they walked.
I ate quite a lot today.
...
They finally made it back to their dormitory, and Gu Luoxi took a shower to wash away the smell of smoke and fire. She then decided to continue dealing with Qi Sheng.
After all, if he didn't help her take care of it, she would waste another week.
There was no one else at home besides Qi Sheng, so she had some difficulty finding someone to send a package.
"Please, have pity on the child, it's just a small thing." Gu Luoqi's tone was as humble as could be.
It took Qi Sheng a long time to reply to her message, as indifferent as ever: "It's not on my way."
"It's just a few steps, please be kind enough to walk a few more steps, okay?" Gu Luoqi was very self-aware of asking for a favor.
“It’s not suitable.” Qi Sheng remained unmoved, but Gu Luoqi knew that there was still a chance.
"Is this due to inadequate ideological propaganda or something? It's a new era now; the days when boys and girls shouldn't sit together after the age of three are long gone." Gu Luoqi seemed speechless at his words.
"Is it wrong for someone to have gentlemanly manners?" The system strongly disagreed with her attitude.
"Excuses, these are all excuses!" Gu Luoqi was not buying it at all.
Moreover, her assurance that Qi Sheng was a gentleman was the funniest joke she had heard all year.
"Please, and the door isn't locked," she added.
Qi Sheng's eyes flickered slightly as he stared at his phone. If he remembered correctly, Gu Luoqi was used to locking the door and did not allow anyone to enter her room without permission.
"Come find me on Sunday to pick it up."
Gu Luoqi felt a little happier when she saw this. "Okay," she agreed quickly, not expecting Qi Sheng to send it to her anyway.
Qi Sheng quickly arrived at Gu Luoxi's door, his brows furrowed slightly, as if he was struggling with something. The door was indeed unlocked, and he quickly opened it. Looking at the overly messy room, his brows tightened even more.
He walked straight to her desk without looking to the side, only to realize that he had underestimated the messiness of her room, especially the desk, which was covered with scraps of paper and books.
He felt a slight headache, and a struggle flashed across his face as if he was considering whether to clean up the pile of garbage in front of him.
Of course, this wasn't because he was kind-hearted, but because he couldn't stand it and found it uncomfortable to watch.
However, he gave up after a short while and decided to let it run its course. But a minute later, he realized he had been too hasty.
He took out his phone. "Would you like to video chat?"
Gu Luoqi quickly sat up straight before replying, "Mhm."
The next moment, Qi Sheng video-called her. He looked at the big face that suddenly appeared on the phone screen and moved the phone away a little.
She seemed to be in pretty good condition, so it was initially determined that she had gotten up.
"Where?" He casually shifted his gaze.
"It's right on the table..." Gu Luoqi said normally, but she slowly shut up when Qi Sheng's camera turned to her messy desk.
"I'm telling you this very seriously, I'm not here." Qi Sheng's voice came from the phone.
