Chapter 953: School Anniversary Party (Part 2)
Gu Xixing frowned slightly, "Huanhuan, stop talking nonsense."
"What nonsense?"
"Mom and I are helping you, you have to do your best too."
"You said before that Sister Ranran was married and it was not appropriate for you to interfere."
"Destroying someone's happy marriage."
"But now... Xie Nancheng has already taken the initiative to file for divorce. Everyone in the world knows it. Why are you still hesitating?"
"Especially... Xie Nancheng's current mistress is so arrogant."
After saying that, Gu Huan took out his cell phone and looked through Han Chuxi's circle of friends.
It’s the one where Han Chuxi shows off her bag.
"Look, this is the information about that college girl."
"I heard that he was from Sister Tu Ran's school."
"But she is relatively young, only nineteen."
"Now that I'm hooked on Xie Nancheng, I don't even have time to go to school anymore."
"I've inquired about her family background. It's quite ordinary, just like a small town test-taker."
"But her food, clothing, and other expenses are now as expensive as a fortune. Who gave her the money?"
"Xie Nancheng is obsessed with her right now, so he definitely has no feelings for Sister Tu Ran."
"Brother, if you give your sister warmth at this time, it will surely move her over time."
"Where did you learn all this nonsense?" Gu Xixing glanced at his sister.
"I learned this from an emotional blogger."
"Watch less short videos in the future, as it can easily lower your IQ," said Gu Xixing.
Gu Huan: ...
"Mom, you see, I was kind enough to help my brother with some advice, but he said I was not smart enough."
"It's really infuriating. My kindness is taken for granted."
Mrs. Gu was used to the bickering between the brother and sister.
Over the years, Gu Xixing has treated Gu Huan like her own sister.
So Mrs. Gu was very satisfied and highly recognized Gu Xixing.
Especially after Old Man Gu passed away, the mother and daughter became even more dependent on Gu Xixing.
"Xixing, what Huanhuan said is not entirely wrong."
"The Xie family's affairs naturally have nothing to do with us."
"But you can be more careful with Tu Ran."
"The school anniversary will be in two days. Although you don't need to make a grand confession, you can definitely find a reason to treat all the judges to a meal and keep her here. The more time you spend together, the more opportunities there will be."
"It's not a long-term solution for a girl like her to always live in Muyunzhai."
"She's still young, she can't be alone forever, right?"
After his stepmother finished speaking gently, Gu Xixing fell into deep thought again.
In fact, it’s not that he doesn’t understand the truth, he’s just afraid.
Over the past year, I have expressed my feelings many times, but was rejected many times.
I'm afraid it would be difficult for Tu Ran to have any romantic feelings for him.
So he was afraid of being rejected and hurt again and again.
But when I think about it, what my stepmother said makes sense.
After a long time, maybe one day in the future.
Tu Ran might change his mind...
After all, human life is too long.
It is impossible to marry someone else just to make do with it.
Gu Xixing has been a person who demands perfection since he was a child.
It is better to have nothing than to have something of poor quality, and keep your original heart.
If it weren't for Tu Ran's peculiarity, he wouldn't be moved.
He really didn't plan to rush into starting a family and a career. After all, he was more career-oriented.
On the other side, the mental rehabilitation center.
Bai Yi bought some exquisite snacks and came to visit Lu Xuaner.
He even stood by patiently and watched a chess game silently.
Lu Xuan'er lost to the old man and smiled, "You are so good. I can never beat you, old man."
"Haha, I've lived for decades."
"You are so young, just practice slowly." The old man could see that he was very happy.
The entire sanatorium knew that this young female mental patient had only one friend.
Others want to get close, but no way.
Lu Xuan'er only chatted, drank tea and played chess with the old man.
The old man even had a share of some expensive fruits, cakes, and snacks sent by the Lu family.
After a long time, the old and the young had a lot of fun playing together.
No one mentions Tao Jinlong's case anymore.
Although the sanatorium was still filled with smoke and chaos, no one dared to disturb Lu Xuaner anymore.
Last week, a male patient had an attack and accidentally threw a stone that hit Lu Xuaner's foot.
That night, the patient died suddenly.
The autopsy results showed sudden cardiac death.
The reason given was that the patient was suffering from severe mania and was too excited, so he angered himself to death.
This kind of thing is so common that the family members don't pursue it and no one in the nursing home asks about it.
After all, there are new patients coming in and out every day.
Life will not be impossible because of someone's death or someone's coming.
"My friend is here, I won't play with you anymore, humph."
"You girl value women over friends." The old man looked up at Bai Yi, and it was obvious that he regarded him as Lu Xuaner's suitor.
After the old man left, the chess and card room returned to peace.
Bai Yi put down the cake in his hand and said, "I don't know what you like to eat, so I just bought a little bit of everything."
"Officer Bai, please save your money. After all, you don't have a job anymore."
Bai Yi was slightly startled, "You knew I was suspended?"
"It's on the mobile phone news." Lu Xuan'er picked up the pastry with a smile and fiddled with it in her hands.
"How have you been lately?" Bai Yi asked.
"Haha, it's strange. My family doesn't care about me that much... Officer Bai and I are not related at all. What are you doing?"
"The old man thought you were going after me, but I know you're not, and you know you're not, right?"
Lu Xuaner's words were very confusing, and probably only the two of them could understand them.
"Tell me, what do you want to know?" Lu Xuan'er took a bite of the Swiss roll and glanced out the window.
"Do you know Lin Siyao?"
"I don't know him."
"Have you seen her?"
"I don't remember."
"Lin Siyao is very famous in Xiangcheng. Her previous character was the most beautiful woman in Xiangcheng, and she became famous for her beauty." Bai Yi said.
"What does it have to do with me?" Lu Xuan'er pulled herself back to her senses and looked at Bai Yi with a smile in her eyes.
"Recently, there have been several unsolved cases in Xiangcheng. No, I can't say they're unsolved. They should be defined as suicides. All the evidence points to suicide or accidents, but I don't think something is right."
"Oh, so you want me to take the blame again?" Lu Xuan'er asked bluntly.
"I know it's not you."
"Because the ultimate beneficiary of this matter is Lin Chen."
"That is Lin Siyao's brother."
"So I know it's related to Lin Siyao."
Lu Xuan'er smiled and said, "That's strange. Officer Bai has such clear ideas. Shouldn't he go directly to Lin Siyao?"
"No, I know you are great."
"I want to ask you, if Lin Siyao is not a human, then what is she?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Xuan'er paused slightly with her slender fingers holding the Swiss roll.
"I know Lin Siyao is not a human."
"But I'm just an ordinary person, I can't tell what she is... I don't know how many cases in Xiangcheng are related to her."
"Oh, I see. You want me to help you?"
"But why do I remember that you have a better relationship with Tu Ran?"
"You should go find her."
"And I... am not your friend." Lu Xuan'er did not answer the question directly, but hinted at something.
"Lu Xuan'er, so what exactly do you want?"
"People like you, coming back to Xiangcheng, definitely don't come to the mental hospital to play chess."
"What do you want?"
Bai Yi also changed the subject and stopped mentioning Lin Siyao, but asked Lu Xuaner directly.
