Chapter 59: Eating melon progress 59%
Gu Yanzhi took a few steps back, his gaze drifting towards Su Lan's cabin.
As soon as Su Lan came out of the wooden house, she saw this scene.
Is this a form of fitness that imitates the elderly?
Gu Yanzhi: “…”
Intelligence System: "Pfft... Sister-in-law thinks you're old. If you add up your age in your previous life (28) and the time it took you to be reborn in this life (3 years), you'd be almost 40..."
Gu Yanzhi ignored the system and met Su Lan's gaze with a gentle look. "I heard that you will be in charge of the charity art exhibition tomorrow. Do you want to go take a look today?"
The intelligence system exposed him in his consciousness: "She said the space is missing something. Just remember, if you want to take her shopping, just say it directly. Who can understand if you beat around the bush like this?"
Su Lan blinked her eyelids, thinking that tomorrow would be the Orchid Society's charity art exhibition, and as the person in charge, she should indeed go and take a look.
Besides, there was a high school reunion going on that evening, and she wanted to go too. Since she had to go out, she needed to ask Gu Yanzhi for permission to go.
Su Lan looked at Gu Yanzhi: "I was just about to look for you..."
【Gu Yanzhi is quite nice.】
Gu Yanzhi was overjoyed when he heard Su Lan's inner voice. The next second, he heard her inner voice again. [What a pity! He's a male version of Nun Miejue.]
Gu Yanzhi's eyelids twitched.
Intelligence System: "Pfft... I really can't hold it in any longer. My sister-in-law said you are Nun Miejue."
"Master..."
Su Lan noticed that Gu Yanzhi's expression was not right.
[Face-changing is faster than Sichuan Opera...]
Intelligence system: "Puff..."
After he said "poof", he pursed his lips, looked at Gu Yanzhi's stern eyes, and made a gesture of sewing his mouth together.
Gu Yanzhi's mood changed from "She praised me", to "She complained about me", and then to "She can complain about me, but others can't!"
Su Lan just complained in her heart, but still said "thank you" in a kind and polite manner.
This time, Gu Yanzhi grabbed her elbow with more force than usual.
【Is this a bad mood? 】
As soon as Su Lan entered Gu Yanzhi's consciousness space and looked at the gloomy weather, [Sure enough...]
She strolled to the dry cherry tree, and the last cherry blossom had fallen.
The flower bud lay on the ground, its petals becoming a little transparent, and were touched by the breeze, floating half an inch to the side.
[He's so young and is the chairman, managing so many people. It must be very hard...]
[Kindness is not the best way to command an army. Perhaps this is why his emotional tree is so dry.]
[Will he be lonely standing at the top alone? His parents and sister have left him...]
When Gu Yanzhi heard Su Lan's thoughts, he didn't look back, but the softest part of his heart was touched.
The two walked out of the space door, and beyond their sight, the cherry blossom branches stretched out and bloomed seven small pink and white flowers.
Su Lan came out of the space gate, went to Tony's place to simply change her appearance, and then appeared at the entrance of the shopping mall with Gu Yanzhi.
Su Lan was curious, "Aren't you going to the art exhibition?"
Gu Yanzhi's voice was clear, "Buy something."
Su Lan followed him because she also wanted to go shopping.
She bought lily of the valley seeds, which Gu Xi liked.
When they bought clothes, they always bought two pieces, one for her and one for Gu Xi.
Her consciousness space has no electricity, so she bought furniture for Gu Xi that does not consume electricity.
I also bought some snacks that Gu Xi and I liked and hid them in the space.
When paying, Su Lan took out her phone first and said, "Scan my code."
【I can’t owe him any more.】
The cherry blossom in Gu Yanzhi's heart withered.
[I'll donate the gold bars to the Lanxi Foundation. Gu Yanzhi is now the head of the foundation, so it can be considered a return...]
Another cherry blossom has fallen somewhere.
Gu Yanzhi's long eyelashes drooped, he would rather Su Lan owed him like this.
It cannot be paid back, and there is no need to pay it back.
Just like that, for a lifetime.
The waiter asked: "Do you want it delivered to your door?"
Su Lan smiled: "No need."
She called up the cameras within ten meters, reached the surveillance blind spot, and threw things into the space.
On the other side, Gu Yanzhi bought something amazing: two baskets of strawberries, egg yolk pastries, and a pink figurine...
I didn't expect him to be so girly...
Gu Yanzhi held his forehead and said, "I bought it for the system."
Su Lan said "Oh" with a look of disbelief.
The intelligence system slid down and knelt in the consciousness space to apologize, with a strong desire to survive.
"Brother, I was wrong. I made you take the blame. I'm going to her consciousness space to explain."
Gu Yanzhi: "No need."
There is no point in saying more. The more you explain, the more it seems like a cover-up.
Gu Yanzhi put his hands in his pockets and walked behind Su Lan.
Su Lan turned around and handed him a pair of jade porcelain cups, "For you."
She smashed Gu Yanzhi's white jade cup, so naturally she had to compensate him, spending a huge sum of eighteen yuan.
There is a picture of a waterfall on a cliff on the cup, and opposite is a person in red clothes sitting in a pavilion drinking tea.
This picture is quite similar to Gu Yanzhi's consciousness space.
The intelligence system opened its mouth wide, "She gave you a pair of cups (tragedy) tools (tragedy)."
Gu Yanzhi's eyebrows moved slightly.
Su Lan tilted her head and asked, "Why, you don't like it?"
"No, I like...this cup."
The intelligence system shook its head.
"I was unmoved by the loss of an antique white jade cup, but was overjoyed to receive a low-end mass-produced cup..."
"Oh, there's no hope..."
Gu Yanzhi knew that Su Lan gave him the cup to draw a clear line between them.
But this was the first time she had given him something, and she had carefully selected it. The painting on the cup was clearly his consciousness space...
Gu Yanzhi’s inner thoughts: She is still very nice to me.
Somewhere, a few cherry blossoms are blooming again...
Su Lan walked past the entrance of a restaurant, saw the familiar scenery, and stepped back.
[Isn't this the barbecue restaurant where we had our high school reunion? We've arrived at the melon field...]
Gu Yanzhi took a look and asked, "Are you hungry?"
Su Lan nodded.
[The stomach that eats food is not hungry, but the stomach that eats melons is hungry, haha. ]
"Is there a private room?" Gu Yanzhi asked.
Although he changed his appearance, he still liked private space.
"No need, just sit in the lobby." Su Lan said.
The waiter glanced at the two of them. Based on his many years of experience in reading customers' expressions, he must be a henpecked husband. Since the man's words were useless, he would just listen to the woman.
"Okay." The waiter led them in. "You can sit in this row by the window."
Su Lan saw several familiar faces sitting next to the long table.
She recognized him as her high school classmate.
The melon owners have not arrived yet.
Don't be in a hurry, take your time.
Su Lan found the best spot to sit down.
Before she even ate the melon, she already wanted to laugh...
The female classmates who arrived first had already started chatting.
"You look so beautiful today."
"The same to you."
Su Lan: [Haha, everyone is putting in all their effort to dress up, some even start getting dressed at 3pm.]
"It's been seven or eight years since we graduated from high school. I wonder what the boys in our class have become like now?"
"I've seen videos of male classmates with crooked faces online. Could all of them be bald and have beer bellies?"
The girls were discussing when a few male classmates came to the door. They were of average looks but dressed very fashionably.
Su Lan sighed: [Times have changed, and the male classmates have become so trendy.]
The intelligence system silently took notes: "Brother, it seems that my sister-in-law likes trendy things. You are dressed too formally."
Su Lan's gaze fell on Gu Yanzhi.
He changed his appearance, but his figure and demeanor were very good.
He was wearing a well-tailored dark green suit, and his fingers were long and slender with distinct joints, and every time he lifted or put them down, he was very graceful.
A banished immortal like him would look a bit out of place sitting in a barbecue restaurant. If you didn't know him, you would think he was some young master coming to check the performance.
Su Lan suggested, "How about I grill it?"
Don't dirty the young master's sleeves.
"It's okay. I'm used to it when I'm abroad."
Gu Yanzhi is used to being independent, so these are not difficult for him.
The voices of classmates next to me came.
"I haven't seen you for a few years. You look handsome again."
"That's... Haven't I always been the most handsome in the class?"
"Hahaha... Why do I remember that the class flower was Yu Qian."
At this time, Yu Qian walked in from the door, wearing a black suit. He was dressed exquisitely, and every strand of hair looked as if it had been carefully groomed.
Su Lan sighed: [After all these years, Yu Qian has not grown old and is still good-looking. ]
Gu Yanzhi's hand trembled slightly.
As soon as Yu Qian arrived, he was surrounded by boys and sat down.
Various compliments followed, saying that Yu Qian had risen in recent years and became a fund manager. He managed a fund pool worth hundreds of millions and had an annual income of several million, which was considered the ceiling for working people.
[It seems that my old deskmate is doing pretty well.]
Gu Yanzhi: “…”
In his two lifetimes, how come he had never heard of this person, who was also Su Lan's deskmate.
Gu Yanzhi felt inexplicably angry when he thought about how Yu Qian sat next to Su Lan every day and attended classes with her when he was away.
In a moment of distraction, Gu Yanzhi's fingers touched the edge of the barbecue grill, and it made a slight "hiss" sound.
He was burned, but he didn't say anything. He moved his hand under the table. His fingers were still burning with pain, so Gu Yanzhi got up and went to the bathroom to deal with it.
When I came back, there was burn ointment on the table.
"The waiter gave it to me." Su Lan said softly.
She asked the waiter for it.
Gu Yanzhi felt warm in his heart, and said "thank you" coldly, feeling happy and joyful in his heart...
The barbecue restaurant's big screen was showing an advertisement for Gu Yanzhi. A female classmate saw it and exclaimed, "Gu Yanzhi! I like him so much."
"I met him when we were in high school."
"Wow! Really? Where did you see that?"
"Right at the school gate. I heard his sister goes to a private school across the street, and he'd sometimes come pick her up. I only saw him once. He was so handsome! I still remember it after all these years. Who would have thought he'd become a big star now?"
While grilling the meat, Su Lan secretly glanced at Gu Yanzhi, feeling a sense of honor.
"If they knew you were sitting here, would they come over?"
Su Lan raised her hand, teased him softly, and called his name, "Gu Yanzhi..."
Gu Yanzhi was afraid of being exposed, so he immediately pressed her hand down.
Su Lan felt the coolness on the back of her hand. She quickly pulled her hand away, and her face couldn't help but feel hot.
"I'm going to the bathroom."
Su Lan washed her hands in front of the mirror for a long time, using the back of her hands to cool her hot cheeks.
What is she nervous about...
She muttered to herself: Gu Yanzhi is an iron tree! An iron tree! An iron tree!
Suddenly, memories of the dead begin to attack her.
In her previous life, she was with Gu Yanzhi...
How did she make the iron tree bloom?
No, no, no, what are you thinking about?
It doesn't matter.
She came to eat other people's melons, not to be the melon owner...
Su Lan adjusted her mood and returned to her seat. Her eyes wandered everywhere, but she didn't dare to look at Gu Yanzhi's face.
Someone from high school called out her name.
"Didn't they say...Su Lan would come?"
Ren Churong, the organizer of the reunion, replied: "I've already called her, but she's become a big star now, so she probably won't be able to come."
"How about... give her a call?"
Ren Churong pretended to make a call, but no one answered.
Su Lan laughed. "Master Ren is so funny. He doesn't even have her phone number or WeChat, yet he's still pretending to be familiar with her."
The classmate who was making a fuss nudged Yu Qian with his elbow, "Yu Qian, if Su Lan isn't coming, are you going to leave?"
Yu Qian replied calmly, "She's filming Desert Island Survival and can't come."
"You still care about her! Speaking of which, when the class voted, half of the girls voted for you as the class flower, and two-thirds of the boys voted for Su Lan as the class flower, saying that you two should be a couple."
Yu Qian asked in return: "Who did you vote for?"
"Of course I voted for Su Lan... So what? I know I'm not worthy! But you can, you two are a match made in heaven!"
Su Lan, who was watching nearby, felt inexplicably guilty.
In front of Gu Yanzhi, I felt a little embarrassed when I heard my classmates talking about me like this.
She kept staring at the door of the barbecue restaurant.
[Where are the two melon owners? Why haven’t they come yet? ]
Gu Yanzhi heard her inner thoughts and looked towards the door in the direction of her gaze.
After a while, a man and a woman came over. They occasionally made eye contact, but there was almost two meters between them.
"Wen Yu, Zhong Xiao, this way."
Su Lan dragged her chin, stopped eating the meat, and started eating melons. [Yuxiao CP, the melon owner is here! ]
Zhong Xiao sat down among the boys.
Wen Yu went to sit in a corner farthest from her, which was closest to Su Lan and where he could hear Su Lan's thoughts.
Su Lan watched the preview and had just started eating the melon when the owner came and she could finally eat as much as she wanted.
Wen Yu and Zhong Xiao were the most famous campus couple of their class. Although the school did not allow them to date, they were very content and only got together after the college entrance examination.
They are each other's first love.
Later, they were admitted to a university in the same city. After graduation, they rented a room outside and worked together to earn money and save for marriage.
At this time, Wen Yu's best friend Ren Churong moved to her house, saying that the landlord didn't allow her to keep a cat and kicked her out. She had nowhere to live, so she stayed at her house for a few days.
Wen Yu softened her heart and agreed.
Her boyfriend Zhong Xiao was also very cautious. When Wen Yu was not at home, he would delay coming back and go to the downstairs of Wen Yu's company to pick her up after get off work every day.
Until his girlfriend Wen Yu went on a business trip, Zhong Xiao thought it was too expensive to stay in a hotel every day, so he went home.
Unexpectedly, Wen Yu's best friend Ren Churong, wearing a seductive white low-necked lace nightgown, crawled on the floor looking for the cat and found his room...
Not far away, Wen Yu heard Su Lan's inner voice, but she didn't understand where the voice came from.
But she still couldn't help asking in her heart: What happened next?
The author has something to say:
The crispy author went swimming and caught a cold. I don't know if it's because his immunity was weakened by the virus after he became a sheep, or if it's just because he's old...
At this moment, an elderly author looks back and bows. See you tomorrow~
