Lin Qingyu wasn't in a hurry, so she put the notes in the cabinet.
I was thinking of finding a proper excuse to discuss this matter with Gu Shi someday.
When Zhao Xiaobao returned home that evening, he looked at Lin Qingyu's medicine and noticed that some of the ingredients were different from the ones he was using.
He told Lin Qingyu the truth and let her make her own choice.
Lin Qingyu didn't doubt Zhao Xiaobao; she just thought the child was really amazing, since she couldn't even understand those medicines.
Finally, she took the medicine that Zhao Xiaobao had prepared, brewed it herself, and drank it.
She suffered terribly.
Gu Shi hasn't gone home yet. He usually doesn't stay out this late, and there's still no word from him.
Lin Qingyu couldn't help but wonder if something was wrong at the factory.
Lying in bed, I wasn't sleepy at all because I had slept a lot during the day.
Lin Qingyu listened to the clock in the living room chime again and again until midnight.
There was still no movement outside.
Lin Qingyu couldn't sleep, so she got up to get some water.
I had just poured a glass of water from the kettle when I heard the sound of keys outside the door.
Thinking that Gu Shi had returned, Lin Qingyu finished a sip of water and rushed over to open the door.
When I got to the door, I found that the person across the hall had come back.
That is, Wu Lili had just returned home. She had worked all day and didn't get home until midnight.
Lin Qingyu wasn't interested at all; instead, she felt particularly disappointed.
I wonder why Gu Shi hasn't come home yet?
Just as I was about to go back to sleep, a thought crossed my mind, and the door was pushed open.
In the darkness, Lin Qingyu saw Gu Shi's figure and stood unsteadily by the door for a while.
Lin Qingyu remained silent until Gu Shi made a move, at which point she went out to call him.
"Why are you only coming back now? Did something happen at the factory?"
Gu Shi was stunned for a moment when he heard her speak, and then turned on the light after he realized what she meant.
"Why aren't you asleep? It's so late. Come inside quickly, or you'll catch a cold!"
Gu Shi reeked of alcohol; Lin Qingyu could smell it even from a meter or two away.
She wanted to go over and check on Gu Shi, but Gu Shi suddenly reached out and blocked her.
Both of them stood still.
Gu Shixian spoke first, "I had some things to do today and drank a little. I'm dirty. You go back to sleep first, I'll be right back."
Lin Qingyu could only nod, even though this was the first time Gu Shi had rejected her like this.
Lying in bed, Lin Qingyu couldn't fall asleep even more, tossing and turning in her thoughts.
After a while, Gu Shicai walked in with wet hair.
Lin Qingyu didn't want to think about it anymore. She jumped out of bed and said anxiously, "It's so cold, why don't you dry your hair!"
She found a large towel and covered Gu Shi's head with it, then walked to the stove and glanced at the fire.
"Come here and warm your hair up in the dryer, it's so cold!"
Gu Shi obediently walked over. Although he was wearing pajamas, Lin Qingyu only realized that Gu Shi's large hand was cold when she touched it.
She looked at Gu Shi in disbelief: "You washed it with cold water?"
Gu Shi nodded.
Lin Qingyu reached out and pulled open Gu Shi's collar, then asked, "Did you take a shower?"
Gu Shi nodded again.
Lin Qingyu was immediately furious, but she didn't know what to be angry about.
Is he the person who was drinking with Qi and Gu Shi?
Why did Gu Shi insist on taking a shower in such cold weather? And a cold shower at that!
She ran back to the bedside, grabbed the blanket and draped it over Gu Shi, urging him to get closer to the stove.
Throughout the entire process, Gu Shi kept his eyes fixed on Lin Qingyu, no matter where she walked.
Lin Qingyu also moved a stool and sat down next to Gu Shi, fuming and not saying a word.
Gu Shi secretly tried to grab Lin Qingyu's hand, but failed.
Gu Shi looked even more aggrieved, practically wearing the word "aggrieved" on his face.
Silence speaks louder than words; this is exactly the state of mind.
Less than a minute later, Lin Qingyu turned her head and glanced at Gu Shi before being defeated.
Seeing Gu Shi's aggrieved look, she immediately lost her temper and took the initiative to hold Gu Shi's hand.
"Alright, alright, look at you, so pitiful! I'm not angry with you, I'm just... ugh, so annoying! I don't even know what I'm angry about!"
As Lin Qingyu spoke, Gu Shi's expression grew increasingly grim, and he dared not continue.
She stretched out a hand and, as if petting a cute big dog, patted Gu Shi's face.
"Look how wronged you look! I didn't even say a harsh word, and you wouldn't let me touch you just now!"
Lin Qingyu tried to make herself look fierce, but she laughed as she spoke, making her seem harmless.
Gu Shi's expression at this moment was exactly like that of a loyal dog, and he even pouted as he defended himself.
"I smell like other people, and I don't want you to smell it or touch me!"
I really don't know how much Gu Shi drank to make him like this.
Lin Qingyu found it both funny and heartbreaking.
Gu Shi is usually too serious, but deep down he's just an ordinary young man!
Lin Qingyu reached out and hugged Gu Shi, gently comforting him and offering another explanation.
It took Gu Shi quite a while to finally lie down on the bed, close his eyes, and go to sleep.
The next morning, Lin Qingyu was exhausted and didn't wake up properly.
The moment Gu Shi opened his eyes, he first turned his head to look at Lin Qingyu, his mind filled with the scenes from last night.
He remembers everything, but it's better not to remember these things.
Gu Shi's ears turned bright red, feeling somewhat ashamed. After lying down for a while, he readily accepted it.
They even felt that Lin Qingyu was more gentle this way, and it would be nice to experience such a life occasionally.
Within minutes, Gu Shi's state of mind completely changed.
Seeing that Lin Qingyu was still fast asleep, he got up quietly and went to make breakfast for her.
Gu Shi came home so late last night, someone must have been looking for him.
It had nothing to do with the factory; it was someone from my hometown who brought both bad news and good news.
The bad news is that word has spread that Gu Shi and Lin Qingyu have become rich and now live in the provincial capital, becoming legendary city dwellers.
The good news was that He Jinhua had someone send a letter of introduction recommending Zhao Xiaobao to a school in the city.
Gu Shi hadn't had time to look into the school yet, but it seemed pretty good.
With porridge cooking on the stove, Gu Shi took out the letter He Jinhua had written to him to read.
He had never heard of the school mentioned in the letter, so he simply put it aside for the time being.
Then Gu Shi took the eggs to the kitchen and started frying them.
I couldn't help but think of what happened last night.
Once someone becomes successful, regardless of how they were viewed before, people will shamelessly cling to them.
Remembering the back of his hand that had been touched last night, Gu Shi glanced at it and saw that it was still a little red.
It was rubbed last night, in a spot that someone else touched.
That's why he wouldn't let Lin Qingyu touch him.
