Chapter 38

Hearing this, Gu Hengsheng smiled slightly: "I accept your apology."

Gu Qingyue confessed: "Before I came here, I was still wondering whether I should buy a bouquet?"

"What are you buying flowers for?" Gu Hengsheng asked in confusion.

"Apologize," Gu Qingyue said logically. "Perhaps for Hua's sake, you won't kick me out."

Gu Hengsheng covered his forehead with one hand and smiled helplessly: "Then I should be glad you didn't buy it."

Gu Qingyue continued, "My mom said you have a good temper and wouldn't argue with a junior like me, is that right?"

He looked at her and said gently, "Qingyue, you are the first person who dares to accuse me to my face."

"real?"

"Yes." Gu Hengsheng said.

Gu Qingyue, feeling confident and unfazed, asked him smugly, "Isn't that my honor? Thank you, Mr. Gu."

Gu Hengsheng smiled at her, opened the refrigerator, and said, "Would you like some fruit after dinner?"

Gu Qingyue poked her head out and glanced at the refrigerator: "What's in there?"

"Mulberries."

Gu Qingyue was surprised: "You like to eat this?

"My colleagues at the hospital sent two boxes," Gu Hengsheng said. "You can take one back later."

"It's too heavy." Gu Qingyue frowned and said lazily, "I can't lift it."

"I'll take you back later," he said.

"Thank you." She put on a happy face, "From now on, I won't dare to easily make you angry again."

"There's no need to say some things too early. When you can't do it, there's still room for maneuver." Gu Hengsheng advised her based on his experience.

Gu Hengsheng cleaned the mulberries and placed them in a glass bowl. He said, "I have something else to take care of in the study. You can watch a movie in the living room. I'll take you back later."

"Hmm." Gu Qingyue nodded, picked up a mulberry and put it in her mouth, "So sweet."

Gu Hengsheng walked into the study.

Gu Qingyue turned on the TV and picked up a movie, "Lolita," a film about forbidden love. This unconventional subject matter, unspeakable yet surging with undercurrents, stirred the heart. Gu Qingyue had seen it once before, in early middle school. By the end, she was completely lost; she only understood the general story of the film, but she didn't understand anything.

She felt that she was not cut out for studying Chinese. She skimmed through many books and watched many movies, but that was just skimming through them.

Halfway through the movie, Gu Hengsheng came out of the study.

"What are you looking at?" he asked.

Gu Qingyue hugged Zaisif and said, "Lolita."

She looked up at him: "Have you seen it?"

He shook his head and asked her, "What's it about?"

If someone else had asked her, Gu Qingyue probably wouldn't have dared to tell the truth. After all, the film was classified as erotic. But she knew Gu Hengsheng wasn't the kind of person who didn't understand. She said, "It's a story of an abnormal love, a story between a middle-aged man and a twelve-year-old girl."

As soon as the words fell, Gu Hengsheng fell silent.

Gu Qingyue raised her eyes to look at him. His expression was a little subtle, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes. Gu Qingyue called out to him, "Third Uncle."

He withdrew his eyes from the movie, restrained his emotions, and said, "Let me smoke a cigarette, and I'll take you home later."

Gu Qingyue was stunned, her eyes fell on the balcony.

In winter, the nights are long and the days are short. By six o'clock, it was already pitch black. The balcony lights were off, and his back melted into the night, leaving only a scarlet spark in his hand.

Gu Qingyue thought of the change in his expression a few seconds ago. She was wondering if it was because of her inappropriate words that he suddenly changed his expression.

After a while, he came in from the balcony, with a faint smell of cigarettes on his body.

Gu Qingyue held her chin with one hand and said, "I thought you didn't smoke."

Gu Hengsheng placed the lighter and cigarette case on the coffee table and said, "Qingyue, I am a man too."

"So, all men like to smoke."

"That's not what I meant." He said with a smile.

Gu Qingyue put the last mulberry into her mouth, afraid of clapping, and said, "I know what you mean, you are just an ordinary person, don't think you are too perfect, I understand."

Gu Hengsheng drove the car all the way to the dormitory building. Gu Qingyue opened the car door, picked up the foam box under the passenger seat, and said goodbye to him.

Gu Qingyue arrived at the dormitory door carrying a box of mulberries. She breathed a sigh of relief and pushed open the door: "Qingqing, help me."

Seeing this, He Qing stood up from his chair and helped move the foam box into the dormitory: "What is it?"

"Mulberries."

"So many? Are you planning to be a small fruit stall owner?" He Qing joked.

"No, my third uncle gave it to you. I thought of bringing it to you to try." Gu Qingyue said.

"You are thoughtful." He Qing praised her.

"Teacher Gu?" Jiang Xinhui asked.

Gu Qingyue nodded. He Qing took a utility knife and cut along the edge of the tape. She opened the foam box and asked, "Who wants some?"

Shu Miaomiao came out of the bathroom and came over when she heard the noise: "What is that?"

"Mulberries." He Qing said.

"Give me some." Shu Miaomiao said.

Gu Qingyue opened the wardrobe, grabbed her pajamas and facial cleanser, and went to the bathroom to wash up. When she finished, the three people in the dormitory were eating mulberries.

He Qing asked: "Do you have anything to do on New Year's Eve?"

Jiang Xinhui said, "What are the arrangements?"

"We're planning on going out for dinner and then going to a nearby bar to celebrate New Year's Eve. How about that?"

"Can."

Gu Qingyue turned on the computer, checked the final exam schedule, and asked them, "Are you leaving early this year?" Art majors have fewer subjects to take, and they are often the ones who leave school early.

"Yes, one day earlier than you." Shu Miaomiao said.

Gu Qingyue nodded.

At this time, there was a noise coming from the balcony downstairs. Jiang Xinhui ran to the balcony and took a look.

He Qing asked in the dormitory: "What happened outside?"

Jiang Xinhui walked in and said, "It seems that Chi Xiqian had a quarrel with someone."

He Qing picked a mulberry and put it in his mouth. "Speaking of this, I suddenly remembered something. A few days ago, Chi Xiqian confessed her love to Song Xiaoshu."

"What's the result?" Shu Miaomiao asked curiously.

"Song Xiaoshu politely declined." He Qing said.

"I thought Song Xiaoshu was also interested in her." Shu Miaomiao said.

He Qing frowned and said, "I think Chi Xiqian might not really like Song Xiaoshu that much."

Jiang Xinhui blinked and said, "I think Song Xiaoshu might be interested in Qingyue."

"Impossible." Gu Qingyue denied hastily.

"Are you so sure?" Jiang Xinhui said.

"I asked Song Xiaoshu." Gu Qingyue turned off the computer and looked at the three people. "He denied it."

Shu Miaomiao glared: "Okay, Qingyue, you actually dared to ask him, you are so brave."

"So, please stop messing around with couples."

He Qing took two tissues to wipe his hands, glanced at Gu Qingyue, and seemed to be hesitant to speak.
