Xihe frowned: "Why are you so anxious?"

Can't I even stay one more night?

Gu Huai gently squeezed her hand, his voice gentle: "There's something over there that I need to go back and take care of."

So she had to be obedient? Be good? Not lose her temper, right?

Xihe felt a little uncomfortable. What could be so important that they had to leave tonight? They had just been together and hadn't even had time to be affectionate.

But... Xihe held his hand tightly: "I'll take you there."

If she had known she would leave today, she should have pestered him and made him sleep on the sofa last night.

The little girl was obviously angry, but she still chose to see him off. Gu Huai's heart softened: "It's too late, I'm worried about you coming back, so I'll just go back by myself."

After a pause, he put down what he was holding.

He stepped forward, hugged the girl in his arms, and stroked her hair: "Take care of yourself at school. Call me if you have any problems."

Xihe put her arms around his waist and hummed in a muffled voice.

She's in the capital, he's in Jiang City, and I'm going. So she's going to have a four-year long-distance relationship? Just thinking about it makes me despair.

Suddenly she remembered something and looked up: "National Day, are you coming, or should I go back?"

National Day is in a month.

Gu Huai smiled: "I'll do it."

This confirmed the time for their next meeting. Xihe finally felt less uncomfortable. However, she was very determined to see him off: "I'll go!"

With a pout, his face swelled up like a pufferfish.

Gu Huai was reluctant to let her go in the first place, and now he was even more soft-hearted and agreed without a second thought.

Gu Huai: "...I'll wait for you downstairs."

The lights in the dormitory building next to them were on, and occasionally students came and went. They stood in the shadow of the trees. Gu Huai smiled helplessly. What could he do? He could only indulge her.

Xihe happily took the things and went upstairs.

Gu Huai took out his cell phone and checked it, and moved the originally booked ticket to two hours later.

Xihe put the things on the table, said hello to his two roommates in a hurry, and hurried downstairs. He rushed to Gu Huai and said, "Let's go. I'll take you there."

Gu Huai's luggage was still at home, so the two of them took a car directly home.

After a 30-minute subway ride, Xihe followed Gu Huai into a residential complex. Seeing Gu Huai taking her to the elevator, Xihe was startled. She retracted her hand and stood outside the elevator: "I'll wait for you downstairs."

He probably hadn't told his parents yet, so she didn't make things difficult for him.

Gu Huai was stunned: "What's wrong?"

Xihe pouted and snorted, "What if your parents see us? How are you going to explain it?"

She didn't know what his parents were like in this life. If they tried to sow discord between them, she would have to waste a lot of energy.

Gu Huai was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter. He walked over, took her into the elevator, and closed the door: "Don't worry, they are very nice people."

Xihe;???

What does being a nice person have to do with her?

Gu Huai looked towards the elevator and said embarrassedly, "I told them last night."

Xihe:!!!

Xihe widened her eyes in surprise and tilted her head to stare at him: "Really?"

Gu Huai nodded, his face slightly red. This was the first time he fell in love with someone, so naturally he had to tell his parents.

Xihe blinked, a little stiff and a little nervous. She licked her lips: "So what did they say? Did you tell me everything?"

Did you tell them everything that happened between them?

She remembered that Gu Huai's father was a teacher, so she didn't beat him, right?

Gu Huai lowered his head: "I said it."

Xihe immediately reached out and scratched: "Did he hit you? Does it hurt? Hey, why are you so stupid? Can't you just lie?"
