I miss Gu Yu so much.
September is coming to an end, and the National Day holiday is just around the corner.
The school had a holiday in the afternoon.
Before the holiday, the class representative wrote the holiday homework on the blackboard. At first, Chen Shengxu's expression was normal, but slowly his whole face began to stiffen, and then he didn't move, staring at the blackboard full of writing.
A voice called out, "It's holiday time!" brought him back to reality.
His facial expression shattered as he grumbled and stuffed his homework into his schoolbag with great effort.
He felt that his schoolbag weighed ten pounds.
"Seriously, which school assigns this much homework during holidays?!"
Yu Cihuan was speechless: "We're not a top-tier high school, why assign so much? We can't possibly finish writing it all."
"I want to die."
"Add one."
*
He had nothing to do that evening. Gu Yu was still at school and hadn't had a holiday yet. Yu Cihuan asked him to play ball, but he was too lazy to play. Instead, he dragged Yu Cihuan to his house to do his homework.
Yu Cihuan was dumbfounded when he saw Chen Shengxu holding a pen, ready to do the test paper. "Brother, are you serious? You really dragged me here to do my homework?"
"Finish it as soon as possible so we can get it over with."
Are you sure you can finish writing it?
"Give it a try, maybe I can do it," Chen Shengxu moved to the side. "You should study hard, Yu Cihuan."
"Okay, okay." Yu Cihuan sat down next to him, took out a geography test paper from his schoolbag and started writing.
At 7:30 p.m., Chen Shengxu's alarm clock rang. He put down his pen, stretched, yawned, and said, "Let's go eat."
"Wait a minute, I'm almost done with this problem."
"Um."
While waiting for him, Chen Shengxu organized the completed test papers and workbooks. Today's progress was quite good.
Yu Cihuan solved the problem in about ten minutes, and the two of them went out together to eat something at a roadside food stall.
After glancing at his phone, Chen Shengxu's aura immediately became subdued.
"What's wrong?"
"Gu Yu's father will pick her up tonight, so I told her not to go."
He knew about Chen Shengxu's encounter with Gu Yu's parents that night, and upon hearing this, he laughed out loud in a very unkind way, his laughter growing more and more arrogant, "I didn't expect that Chen Shengxu, you could actually be subdued by someone."
“After all, he’s Gu Yu’s father, my future father-in-law,” Chen Shengxu sighed. “Gu Yu said her dad is still a bit angry and told me to avoid him.”
"I'm dying of laughter, hahaha..."
"Since we have nothing else to do, how about going to an internet cafe?"
"go!"
I played a couple of rounds and found it boring.
He pushed the keyboard aside and slumped onto the table.
"It's not fun, it's boring."
Yu Cihuan glanced at him, her face full of disappointment, "It's fun playing with Gu Yu."
“Of course! That’s Gu Yu!” Chen Shengxu sat up abruptly, then slumped back down as if lifeless. “But she’s not here.”
6.
"I miss Gu Yu so much, you can't possibly understand how I feel."
"Good to know."
"Because you're single."
"You son of a bitch!" Yu Cihuan grabbed Chen Shengxu by the back of the neck. "If you can't speak properly, then shut up!"
"What I said is the truth."
"Get out, get out, get out!"
Because Chen Shengxu kept nagging about Gu Yuyu and Ci Huan, he got annoyed by his noise and dragged him out of the internet cafe and home.
He forced the student to sit in front of the desk and yelled, "Do your homework!"
“Oh,” Chen Shengxu said to himself, “but I really want to see Gu Yu.”
"Chen Shengxu!!!"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more, I won't say anything more, I'll do my homework, I'll do my homework."
Gu Yu saw Lao Gu when she came out of the school, but Lao Gu didn't see her looking around.
"Dad, what are you looking at?"
"That brat, didn't he say he'd come to pick you up every day?"
"Since you were supposed to pick me up today, I didn't let him come."
"Gu Yu! You're siding with outsiders! Am I your father or is he your father?!"
"Who told you to tell Mom yesterday that you'd break Chen Shengxu's legs next time you see him!" Gu Yu turned her head away, ignoring him. "Hmph!"
Old Gu felt guilty; how could someone have overheard this?
"Oh, I was just saying that in anger, don't take it seriously," Old Gu didn't care about Chen Shengxu anymore, he just wanted to make his precious daughter happy, "Daddy was wrong, okay?"
"You promised me last time, but you broke your promise."
"How could that be! When have I ever lied to you?"
"just."
"Well... I just feel like my own cabbage has been eaten by a pig, my daughter, you have to understand me."
"I know, I understand. I know that Dad said it in anger. Dad, you may not like Chen Shengxu, but you can't keep trying to bully him. I really like him."
"Okay, Dad promises."
Gu Yu smiled again, "Then let's go home."
"go home."
*
After doing my homework for a while, the quiet atmosphere was broken by a particularly caring notification sound.
"Yay!!" Chen Shengxu shouted happily, "Gu Yu sent me a message!"
Chen Sheng and Xu Huanhuan happily grabbed their phones and jumped onto the bed to chat with Gu Yu.
Yu Cihuan quipped: "Love, affection, brain."
He didn't stay long before telling Chen Shengxu that he was going home.
Gu Yu's National Day holiday started at noon on the second day. Chen Shengxu bought a sunflower at the flower shop and then leisurely rode his bicycle to the Third Middle School.
As soon as I arrived at No. 3 Middle School, before I even got off the bus, I saw Old Gu coming from a distance.
I was terrified.
He turned and ran.
When Gu Yu came out and saw Old Gu, he was startled. "Dad, what brings you here?"
"I wanted to see that kid, but I didn't see him. Isn't he coming to pick you up today?"
“He didn’t come today…” Gu Yu was looking around for Chen Shengxu, and then saw him under the tree holding a sunflower and waving it. He suddenly smiled, “He had something to do today, so he didn’t come.”
"Look how timely your dad is today. It's a good thing I came today, otherwise you would have to go home by yourself."
"Yes, thank you, Dad."
Old Gu is very proud.
"Dad, are you on vacation recently?"
"No, I'm leaving this afternoon."
"Then be careful."
Yes, it will.
After seeing them leave, Chen Shengxu stopped looking and rode his bicycle home like the wind.
Once home, he turned on his phone and messaged Gu Yu, telling him about his amazing feat.
The reply came instantly: "You reacted so quickly, you're such a good boyfriend."
Mengmeng: [I'm still on my way, almost home. I'll tell you when I get home.]
Incredibly handsome: [Okay.]
After getting home, Gu Yu complained to him for a long time about how much homework they had. Chen Shengxu looked at the homework she had written down and suddenly felt that there wasn't that much homework at No. 10 Middle School.
I can't help but exclaim: No wonder it's a top-tier high school.
Old Gu was called away by a phone call during lunchtime, and only managed to eat two bites of his meal.
Gu Yu slept all afternoon, and when he woke up, Madam Gu was already preparing dinner.
She checked her phone and saw that Chen Shengxu had sent her many messages. She replied to each one and only put down her phone when she heard that Madam Gu had invited her to dinner.
Chen Sheng invited Gu Yu to go out the next day, but Gu Yu said he was too tired to go and decided to cancel, thinking he would make it up another time.
He received a call from his mother, asking him to visit his grandmother the next day. Since he had nothing else to do the next day, he agreed.
That evening, I told Gu Yu about it, and Gu Yu told me to go and chat with my grandmother.
Xiao Chen: [No need. My grandma will go play mahjong with her friends. She doesn't really need me to keep her company. I think she'd probably find me annoying.]
Cute bunny: [Shocked.jpg]
Cute Bunny: [Grandma's life is so interesting!]
Xiao Chen: [Yes, my grandma loves going out and can't stand staying at home.]
Cute Bunny: [Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha...]
Chen Shengxu told her a lot about his grandmother. Gu Yu also liked his grandmother's personality very much and found it particularly interesting. He said that he must meet his grandmother in the future, and Chen Shengxu promised to take her to meet her grandmother.
Chen Shengxu got out of bed early the next morning and went to the train station.
While waiting for the bus, he took out his English worksheet to do. He was really going crazy. He had been doing his homework with Gu Yu for a long time yesterday, but there was still a lot of homework left.
He called his grandmother after getting off the train.
It was very noisy over there, and he could clearly hear the sound of the mahjong machine.
"Grandma, I've arrived in Bianzhou."
"Then you go home first, I'll be back soon."
"Okay, Grandma, please be careful when you come back."
His response was the sound of the phone being hung up.
It hung up so quickly.
I took a taxi back to my grandmother's house, found the key under the flowerpot by the door, and opened the door.
She skillfully grabbed some food and drinks from the refrigerator, then nestled on the sofa and texted Gu Yu.
Incredibly handsome: [I've arrived at my grandma's house, but she's still playing mahjong outside.]
Mengmeng: [Okay. Cute.jpg]
After chatting for a couple of minutes, Gu Yu went to do his homework.
Chen Shengxu was watching TV when his eyelids gradually became heavy, and he eventually couldn't stay awake any longer and fell asleep on the sofa.
When Grandma came back, she saw him with one leg on the back of the sofa, the other leg bent, and his arms crossed over his head.
He clicked his tongue and said, "What kind of position is this? Doesn't it feel uncomfortable?"
Grandma took a thin blanket from the room and covered him with it, tucking his legs and arms under the blanket as well.
"I don't know if you're taking care of me or I'm taking care of you, you troublemaker." Even though she said that, she still went to the kitchen to make lunch.
Chen Sheng was probably awakened by the aroma of the food.
"It smells so good!"
"Go wash your face when you wake up, dinner will be served soon."
"Okay!"
After lunch, Grandma didn't stay at home for long and went out immediately. When Chen Shengxu asked her where she was going, she didn't give a clear answer, just saying she was busy.
He didn't ask any more questions. After washing the dishes, he lay down on the coffee table to do his homework. His phone was playing music next to him. Gu Yu told him that he had a lot of homework and was busy doing it, so he didn't send her any messages. He was also doing his homework.
Yu Cihuan started asking him to go out and play. He said he wasn't in Liangcheng, but at his maternal grandmother's house in Bianzhou. Yu Cihuan then made a promise to him that they would go out to play ball after he returned.
Grandma hadn't come back by five or six in the afternoon, so Chen Shengxu made a phone call. He didn't hear Grandma's voice, but he did hear the clattering of mahjong tiles.
The old lady spent the whole afternoon playing mahjong.
He went into the kitchen, quickly cooked a few simple home-style dishes, and headed straight to the mahjong parlor his grandmother frequented.
As soon as I entered, I saw the old lady smiling as she collected her money; she must have won a large sum.
He went over and helped the old lady up, saying, "Grandma, let's go home for dinner."
"Hey! I'm on a winning streak. What are you doing here? I'm not hungry."
"Go back to eat!" No matter how much the old lady struggled, Chen Shengxu insisted on helping her out and then took her home.
The old lady sat at the dining table with a resentful look on her face. "Why are you so annoying!"
"Grandma, I'm just worried about you. How can you not eat?"
"You're such a boring young man."
"Is playing mahjong interesting?"
"More interesting than you."
"..."
Grandma said as she ate, "Your cooking skills have improved."
"How could I not improve on my own? Otherwise, I would have starved to death long ago."
"Not bad, not bad, it'll be easy for him to find a wife."
"That's right."
"Go home after you eat. Don't stay here and keep me from playing mahjong."
"..."
"Grandma, gambling is bad."
"I'm just playing cards. Why are you interfering with my card playing? Isn't that annoying?"
"But you can't just neglect your meals and sleep like that."
"This is my only hobby, and I'm being told what to do. Can you imagine how uncomfortable I am?"
"Okay, okay, I won't say anything more. I'll leave after I finish eating."
"Um."
Chen Shengxu packed up his homework, said goodbye to the old lady, and went out. As soon as he left, he took his grandmother to his mother's place.
Grandma was playing mahjong and was having a great time when she received a call from her daughter. She got a scolding, and she knew it was Chen Shengxu, that brat. She was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.
"You brat!"
*
Chen Shengxu returned to Liangcheng at 11 p.m. He left late and got home late as well.
Gu Yu called right after I finished showering.
"Did you have fun?"
"I didn't play much, I was doing my homework, then I went to drag the old lady out of the mahjong parlor, and in the end I was sent back home."
"Hahahahahahahaha..." Gu Yu laughed heartily, "So you're in Liangcheng now?"
"Mmm!"
What are your plans for tomorrow?
"I'm going to play ball with Yu Cihuan, are you coming to watch?"
"go!"
"Okay, I'll come pick you up later."
"Um."
"How's your homework coming along?"
One-fifth.
"So fast?!"
"My butt has barely left the chair all day, how could I not be fast?"
"Oh dear, you must be exhausted. I'll treat you to something delicious tomorrow."
"good!"
*
Old Chen sent him a message saying that he was going on a business trip abroad for several months and might not be able to come back for the Chinese New Year this year.
Chen Shengxu showed no emotion, said a few words of concern, and then turned off his phone.
The next day, I was woken up by Yu Cihuan's barrage of calls. I said a few words and hung up. I tidied myself up and went to pick up Gu Yu.
He originally intended to wait at the entrance of the residential area, but the old man at the gate recognized him and knew what he was there for, so he let him in.
After picking up Gu Yu, I drove her to the basketball court in the old town.
Yu Cihuan was already waiting there, with several boys he had invited to play ball standing beside him.
They didn't know what Chen Shengxu and Gu Yu said, but they saw Gu Yu reach out and pinch Chen Shengxu's back, causing Chen Shengxu to wince in pain.
The two walked into the stadium, and Yu Cihuan went over to ask what had happened.
Gu Yu glared at Chen Shengxu: "He said I'm an ancient ape."
"Pfft," Yu Cihuan found it amusing, "He even dares to talk about you like that."
"They're incredibly bold."
Chen Shengxu retorted softly, "I didn't."
Gu Yu glared at him again, then turned off the engine.
She said, "It's just that I got too many political questions wrong. It's normal for him to say that I'm an ancient ape who can't understand modern politics."
"I'm dying of laughter, haha ...
Yu Cihuan smiled, and the others beside him laughed along.
Of course, part of the reason is that I've never seen Chen Shengxu so frustrated.
At school, Chen Shengxu never seemed to be the one being manipulated or bullied.
Chen Shengxu and Gu Yu introduced a few other people, all of whom were close friends from their class. Gu Yu greeted them and then went to the sidelines to watch them play.
I didn't sit for long before I got up and went to the small shop outside to buy everyone a bottle of water, then carried the plastic bags back home.
They finished playing after half an hour, and then Gu Yu distributed water to them.
"Oh, having a partner makes all the difference."
"Chen Sheng is truly lucky."
"Exactly, to have a girlfriend like this is a blessing from eight lifetimes ago."
Gu Yu felt a little embarrassed by their comments, but still replied, "No, meeting Chen Shengxu must have been the galaxy I saved in my past life."
Everyone was amused by this remark, and several people next to Chen Shengxu started to tease him.
Chen Shengxu, seemingly oblivious to shyness, proudly declared, "You're all just jealous that I have a girlfriend! I'll make you so envious!"
Then they were besieged and chased all over the field by Yu Cihuan and his team.
Gu Yu stood still, watching them chase each other.
Not long ago, when she was in the third year of junior high school, she often stood in the corridor outside the classroom and watched Chen Shengxu playing wildly with others downstairs. He was very energetic and sunny.
The same applies now.
