327 Draw a clear line
Jiang Qiyue, who has been a social butterfly since childhood, doesn't know what embarrassment is.
He took the initiative to go forward and play on the seesaw with other children. After a while, he successfully joined the children's team.
Gao Qinghe sat down beside the shaded flower bed, looking at her daughter while admiring the flowers planted in the property's flower bed.
Suddenly, there was a "ding" sound in my mind.
[Remind the host, the heroine is twenty meters behind you. ]
Gao Qinghe turned around in surprise, and through the layers of flowers, he saw two familiar figures behind the flower bed.
One is Gu Wen.
The other is Hao Huaping, who has been squatting in the community for a whole day.
The content of the conversation between the two came through clearly.
Because Gao Qinghe was sitting, her figure was completely hidden by the flower bed, and the two people behind the flower bed didn't notice her existence at all.
Hao Huaping said excitedly: "Sister Wenwen, it's been a long time since we last met. How have you been recently?"
Gu Wen felt a little distressed for this girl who had grown up behind her.
Knowing her difficult situation at home, her father was bewitched by her stepmother's family and didn't care about his biological daughter at all. He paid much attention to Hao Huaping in both life and career.
But obviously, Gu Wen has no time to pay attention to Hao Huaping's recent situation, otherwise she wouldn't ask her:
"Jingzhou has been in Qing County for the past two years. He recently couldn't stand the pressure from my uncle, so he came back. Have you two been in touch?"
Hao Huaping showed a hint of embarrassment on her face, but Gu Wen didn't notice and continued to talk to herself:
"If you're not in a hurry to go back, how about we call Jingzhou over this weekend and have a meal together at that little restaurant in the alley?"
Facing Gu Wen's expectant and ambiguous eyes, Hao Huaping said with a stiff upper lip:
"Sister Wenwen, Gu Jingzhou and I haven't been in touch for a long time. Now that you've told me, I know he's back."
Seeing that Gu Wen was about to bring up Gu Jingzhou again, Hao Huaping quickly interrupted her and talked about the changes in her work.
"You resigned?" Gu Wen's expression showed less surprise and more delight.
She patted Hao Huaping's arm happily and said, "I asked you to give up your job in that small county and come back a long time ago, but it's not too late now. I just received news that there is a vacancy at the Ministry of Education..."
"Sister Wenwen!"
Seeing that Gu Wen was enthusiastically preparing to arrange a new job for herself, Hao Huaping quickly interrupted her.
"Sister Wenwen, I know you're doing this for my own good, but I'm resigning this time... for a reason."
Gu Wen's smile changed slightly. She no longer held out hope and gestured for Hao Huaping to sit down and talk.
The two sat down at the edge of the flower bed. Hao Huaping lowered her head in shame, thinking of her current situation, which seemed a little difficult to talk about.
But thinking of Zhou Zhenghua who was still in dire straits, she bit her lip and told Gu Wen that she and Zhou Zhenghua were now at the center of a public opinion storm.
Gu Wen just mentioned Gu Jingzhou several times in a row, and Hao Huaping had to change the subject.
She thought there was some misunderstanding between the two of them and a rift between them.
Now she finally understood that the childhood sweethearts she had always had high hopes for had already parted ways.
When Gu Wen learned that Hao Huaping was trying to help her beloved, she couldn't help but think of her abandoned brother.
A grassroots college student who came out of nowhere, divorced and has children.
She actually defeated her brother who had just returned from studying abroad, had a promising future, was righteous and kind?
Gu Wen couldn't help but confirm again: "Are you really planning to be with this guy named Zhou Zhenghua?"
Hao Huaping nodded with a firm look in her eyes, and her eyes lit up when Zhou Zhenghua's name was mentioned.
Gu Wen's smile faded even more, and she reminded her: "Does your father know?"
Hao Huaping shook her head and lowered it guiltily. She didn't dare to tell her father.
But she believed in the system. If it said Zhou Zhenghua would be liked by his father, then he would definitely do so.
Therefore, Hao Huaping is still very confident.
Gu Wen chuckled and looked carefully at the girl in front of her, whom she had once been very optimistic about. She believed that she was still smart and kind.
But now, she couldn't help but feel disappointed.
Gu Wen thought that maybe she was not as noble as she thought.
After all, her heart is more inclined towards her family.
"Pingping."
Gu Wen solemnly reminded the girl in front of her: "After this favor is used up, we will have no relationship in the future. Think it over carefully."
Hao Huaping's eyes were full of surprise, even a little shocked.
It seemed that she didn't expect that Gu Wen would decide to draw a line between them just because she was not with her brother.
What about the relationship they had growing up together?
When Hao Huaping met Gu Wen's overly calm eyes, she felt a chill in her heart and thought she was still too ridiculous and naive.
She should have realized earlier that although they called each other sisters, they were not related by blood.
It’s okay, as long as Gu Wen is willing to help.
She would return the favor later.
Hao Huaping took a deep breath, stood up, faced Gu Wen, and bowed firmly.
"Thank you, Sister Gu Wen. I'll leave Brother Zhenghua's matter to you."
After putting down the fruit basket, Hao Huaping bowed to Gu Wen with a smile, then turned and left.
Gu Wen opened her mouth to try to keep her, but when the words came to her lips, she gave up.
Glancing at the fruit basket beside her, Gu Wen sneered and shook her head.
This girl probably doesn't know that if someone asks her for help and only brings a fruit basket, he won't even see her.
Hao Huaping felt disappointed.
So is Gu Wen.
If it was to help Hao Huaping, she had nothing to say.
But Hao Huaping wanted her to use this fruit basket to help an outsider. Gu Wen found it funny just thinking about it.
Picking up the fruit basket, Gu Wen walked straight to the property hall and said with a smile that everyone should have some fruit.
Everyone thanked him in surprise, but before he could finish his words, he turned around and left in a cold manner.
......
"Mother!"
Gao Qinghe unconsciously raised a gentle smile and reached out to catch the little meat ball that was running towards him.
The hot ball crashed into my arms, his face covered in sweat and his hair covered in sand.
The gentle smile on Gao Qinghe's lips disappeared instantly, and he quickly patted his dirty daughter clean.
Jiang Qiyue: "Mom, I need some water."
Tired from playing, the little guy was very thirsty and licked his lips unconsciously.
Gao Qinghe shook her head helplessly and took out the water bottle from her small schoolbag, but to her surprise it was empty.
Jiang Qiyue's expectant eyes dimmed in an instant, and he pouted anxiously.
Gao Qinghe suddenly remembered the fruit basket that Gu Wen had just taken away, and it seemed that he suddenly wanted to eat some fruit.
She picked up the small schoolbag and took Jiang Qiyue by the hand, "Let's go, mom will take you to buy some fruit."
Jiang Qiyue asked in surprise: "Mom, can I buy some soda?"
In order to prove that he really only needed a little bit, he rubbed his little fingers together. I don’t know who he learned this materialistic gesture from.
"A little bit, okay, Mom~"
Gao Qinghe couldn't resist the little girl when she started to act coquettishly.
"Okay, Mom, buy a bottle and we'll drink it together."
Jiang Qiyue shouted happily: "I love my mom the most!"
Gao Qinghe couldn't help laughing, and felt sorry for her daughter's thirst, so as soon as she arrived at the small shop outside the community, she immediately bought a bottle of iced soda.
The mother and daughter took turns drinking and picked some fruits, then went home satisfied.
