Chapter 158 Generous Girlfriend VS Poor Boyfriend 14
Gu Xingyuan did not go out on Sunday.
Why aren't you working overtime today?
Jiang Zhiyi found it strange. In the past, she was the one who would pester him and not allow him to go out, so sometimes he would leave before she had even woken up.
Gu Xingyuan said, "I want to keep you company, and I also need to rest for a bit."
Jiang Zhiyi nodded and continued drinking her porridge.
Gu Xingyuan seemed to be deep in thought. There was actually a very important reason why he wasn't going this week...
Li Zifeng broke up with his girlfriend. He used to work overtime until midnight every day and was always busy on weekends, so he didn't have time to spend with her and often ordered flowers to apologize to her.
A few days ago, Li Zifeng's girlfriend broke up with him and got together with the florist. This hit him hard, and he has been "dead" for several days, unable to recover, and is in a daze every day.
Gu Xingyuan felt that he also needed to learn from the experience and lessons of his good brother.
"What do you usually do on weekends?" he asked.
“If you’re not going out with your friends, you can just sleep.” Jiang Zhiyi found his question boring. “I can sleep all day.”
Gu Xingyuan's gaze towards her became somewhat strange. "So, shall we... sleep all day today too?"
"Get out!" Jiang Zhiyi shouted angrily.
Gu Xingyuan touched his nose and said, "I'll just do a thorough cleaning of the house, take down the curtains and wash them."
Jiang Zhiyi: "I'm cheering you on."
The implication is that she won't take action.
"Just don't cause me any trouble." Gu Xingyuan wasn't counting on her; he still had to wash her pile of dolls.
"Gu Xingyuan, you're so capable! Whoever marries you will be so happy!" Jiang Zhiyi said, praising him as she ate an apple.
Gu Xingyuan frowned. There was something awkward about those words. He was about to say something.
Jiang Zhiyi: "I don't know if I'll be that happy in the future, so you have to work hard and make more money."
Upon hearing this, he felt that this was much more normal.
...
After finishing their tasks, the two of them lay on the sofa together, quite relaxed, with entertainment programs playing on the TV.
Jiang Zhiyi looked at him and felt she needed to give him some serious pressure. She asked, "Gu Xingyuan, do you still remember your first love?"
Seeing that he didn't speak for a long time, she said, "Don't worry, I won't be angry or hit you. I'm just curious."
“I remember,” he said.
"Did you like her a lot before?" she asked.
Gu Xingyuan's face showed a look of recollection. "Yes."
Jiang Zhiyi straddled him and continued, "So, do you think I'm prettier or she's prettier?"
He stared at her, "Pretty much."
Jiang Zhiyi held back for the moment, "If she appeared in front of you right now, what would you do?"
Gu Xingyuan's lips curled up: "Kiss her."
Jiang Zhiyi completely exploded, "You bastard, Gu Xingyuan, you shameless scumbag!"
He hugged her and explained, "We've never talked before, it's just you."
Jiang Zhiyi's anger, which had just been building up, was forcefully suppressed by her. "I see..."
Gu Xingyuan: "And what about your first love?"
Jiang Zhiyi thought carefully for a moment, "I don't quite remember, it was many years ago. Back then, we went to and from school together every day, and he would bring me delicious food every day. We were also deskmates..."
Jiang Zhiyi chattered on and on.
Gu Xingyuan's expression changed. "It sounds like he treats you quite well."
“Yes.” Jiang Zhiyi nodded, pretending not to see his expression. “I’m not going to talk about it anymore, the more I talk about it, the more nostalgic I feel. I’m going to watch TV.”
Gu Xingyuan was still sulking until evening, with a cold face.
Jiang Zhiyi habitually wanted to snuggle in his arms to sleep, using him as a useful pillow.
"Come and hug me quickly," Jiang Zhiyi said.
Gu Xingyuan lay there motionless.
"Hurry up," she said, sounding a little impatient.
Gu Xingyuan, with his back to her, said, "It's too hot, let's sleep like this."
Jiang Zhiyi: "..."
His muffled voice rang out again: "Since you can't forget him, why don't you go find him?"
"Oh." Jiang Zhiyi picked up her phone from the bedside table, turned it off silent, and started dialing.
Hearing the dial tone, Gu Xingyuan turned around immediately, his voice urgent: "You—"
Jiang Zhiyi rolled her eyes at him: "What's wrong? Didn't you say you wanted me to go find it?"
Gu Xingyuan snatched her phone and saw that several numbers had been entered on it—250250
"Aren't you childish?" Jiang Zhiyi teased him.
Gu Xingyuan reached out and turned off the light with a "snap".
"Go to sleep." He hugged her.
The warm light from the nightlight spilled onto the bed.
...
On Monday, Gu Xingyuan was at work.
He checked the balance on his phone.
During that period, he took on a lot of freelance work. Since Li Zifeng didn't have the energy to manage the studio, he helped out a lot and earned a considerable amount of money.
If all goes well, I should be able to buy her that bag by the end of the month.
During his lunch break, Gu Xingyuan suddenly received a phone call from Wang Hongling.
When the call connected, a strange young woman's voice came from the other end.
The woman said that Wang Hongling had fainted and was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment, and told him to come over quickly.
Gu Xingyuan rushed over immediately.
