Chapter 41: Courage to Confess
Gu Luan heard the sound from the 19th floor.
She didn't care. After all, it had nothing to do with her. There were many such voices in the apocalypse.
At night, Gu Luan went to bed early.
She curled up in the quilt, holding a medical book in her hand, which contained various introductions to herbs.
When I woke up, the heavy snow was still falling outside, with no sign of stopping.
Gu Luan finally persuaded himself to get up, washed up, had breakfast, and started a new day's exercise task.
Near noon, Gu Luan went into the space to take a bath.
The temperature in the space was as warm as spring, and Gu Luan sensed something was wrong as soon as he entered.
But only a day or two had passed.
The watermelon and strawberry seeds she randomly scattered on the black soil actually sprouted?!
She had seen a video and realized that if seeds were sown without soaking, it would take at least a week for them to germinate in the soil.
But now, in just one or two days, it has sprouted.
What does this prove? It proves that her space is awesome!
Squatting in front of the watermelon seeds, looking at the two tender sprouts, Gu Luan even reached out and touched them curiously.
It’s the first time in my life that I’m planting something, and watching it sprout, how can I not be excited.
Huihui neighed on the other side of the river, jumped up with both hooves, and called out to Gu Luan who ignored him.
There was no other way, Gu Luan had to go and comfort the little ancestor and feed it food at the same time.
In the pasture, more than ten chickens, ducks and geese were eating, and more than twenty chicken, duck and goose eggs were laid in a corner.
Gu Luan walked over with a basket, bent down and picked it up.
A rooster was dissatisfied and wanted to peck at Gu Luan, not allowing her to pick it up.
"You're upset, aren't you? You should know that I'm your master, and I won't eat you again."
Gu Luan grabbed the rooster's neck and pretended to threaten it.
The rooster seemed to know that he had done something wrong and simply did not resist.
Gu Luan let go of it and threw it to the ground.
Judging from its appearance, I might as well leave a few chicken, duck and goose eggs for it.
What if they hatch?
Then she would have chicks and ducklings, how cute!
After being released by Gu Luan, the rooster flapped its wings and ran away.
Huihui chased after it and hit it with a horse hoof, probably because it was dissatisfied with the rooster for bullying Gu Luan.
Gu Luan was holding a basket in her hand and watching the scene with a smile.
Huihui seems to have grown a lot and looks almost the same as an adult horse.
It’s only been a short time, and he’s grown so big?
Could it be that well water is really so magical?
I don’t know if Huihui will also mutate when animals mutate?
After it mutates, will it still recognize her?
After putting the picked up chicken, duck and goose eggs into the static space, Gu Luan started to work on the black soil again.
Take out pepper seeds, cabbage seeds, onion, ginger, garlic and other seeds and plant them one by one.
Finally, a dozen grape seedlings including raisins and sunshine roses were planted on the edge.
After an hour, Gu Luan was forced to leave the space again.
Looking at her hands covered in mud, Gu Luan obediently went into the kitchen to wash her hands.
Coming out of the kitchen, Gu Luan heard faint footsteps outside the door.
It seemed like someone was standing outside her door. Could it be that someone wanted to deal with her again?
It's really endless, isn't it? Do you think she's easy to bully?
Gu Luan walked over and saw an unexpected person through the peephole.
Jiang Xian was wearing a down jacket, his tall figure standing straight.
He didn't knock on the door, but stayed outside quietly.
As if he had noticed something, Jiang Xian looked up at the cat's eye, as if he was looking into her eyes behind the cat's eye.
Gu Luan's heart skipped a beat, and after thinking for more than ten seconds, he opened the door.
"It's so cold, why didn't you knock on the door?"
Her tone was a little unnatural, and she felt indescribable and a little irritated.
She never had such strange feelings towards anyone.
She could sense his affection for her, maybe not love yet, but she was afraid it would turn out that way.
At that time, she didn't know how to respond.
The other person didn't say he liked her, so she couldn't just be sentimental and reject him, right?
What if he just felt sorry for her?
Jiang Xian handed the things in his hand to Gu Luan, "Keep these things, they can protect you when you are in danger."
Gu Luan's body stiffened slightly, and he seemed a little at a loss.
"No, I can protect myself."
Jiang Xian didn't take it back, his eyes were burning, "This world will become more and more chaotic, it will be very difficult for you to be alone, I... don't want you to get into trouble."
Gu Luan didn't dare to look him in the eye, and after hearing his last words, she no longer dared to deceive herself.
He really felt differently about her!
What should she do?
Should I reject him like I rejected those men?
It would have been easy to refuse, but when I looked into his eyes, I couldn't say it.
"If you don't like it, I will try to appear in front of you less often."
As if he could see her embarrassment, Jiang Xian's voice became deeper, with a sense of loss and sadness.
His liking seemed to bother her.
"I……"
Gu Luan didn’t know what to say. Should she agree with him?
"I'm used to being alone, so..."
"I see."
There was no smile on Jiang Xian's handsome face anymore.
Those eyes as bright as stars suddenly became dim the moment she refused.
Gu Luan felt a little stuffy in his heart and started to have a headache again.
"Are you feeling unwell somewhere?"
Seeing her discomfort, Jiang Xian had worry in his eyes. Without caring about anything else, he stepped forward and grabbed Gu Luan's arms.
Gu Luan raised his head and looked into Jiang Xian's eyes again, "I'm fine."
She stepped back, unsure of what to say.
It seemed like no one had cared about me like this for a long time. His concern was so obvious, without any impurities.
"Don't worry, I won't do anything you don't like."
"You don't like me appearing in front of you, so I will try not to appear."
"You must accept this. If you accept it, I will leave immediately."
Jiang Xian smiled bitterly.
It's really hard to fall in love with someone, but get rejected.
He didn't take it back, so Gu Luan had to take it.
Without bothering to see what was in the bag, her eyes fell on Jiang Xian's red hands.
How difficult must it be for him to come here in the minus seventy degree temperature and snowy wind just to deliver something to her?
"You're very nice, but I..."
"Maybe you don't believe it, but I noticed you the first time I saw you. You were the only one I saw among so many people."
Jiang Xian said seriously, his voice low and soft.
At first he didn't know what that feeling was, but later he realized that there really was love at first sight.
The feeling was sour and sweet, making him feel full of strength.
The moment he made up his mind, Jiang Xian didn't sleep all night just to see her earlier.
"Please don't feel bothered."
Jiang Xian smiled, but the smile was too forced.
The love didn't even begin, but it died just like that. It's so painful!
"Well you stinky bitch, if you hadn't opened the door, how could my child have gotten into trouble?"
The ambiguous atmosphere between the two was instantly destroyed by a piercing and sharp voice.
