A breeze blew, bringing a hint of coolness.
She crossed her arms over her chest and stroked her arms on both sides.
He murmured, "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon."
That day was also the children’s second birthday.
And she has been here for three years.
I can’t help but feel emotional!
Days pass by in vain and nights pass by, and when I look back, it is already autumn!
Time is such a strange thing.
It's so slow that the days feel like years, yet so fast that it's unexpected.
"Oh my Guoer, you finally got up!"
Tang's mother poked her head out of the kitchen and saw her standing in the corridor. She walked to the stove and brought over a bowl of freshly cooked chicken soup.
"That rascal Tang Zhan killed this chicken before he left. He cooked it for the entire morning. Come and try it. How does it taste?"
Lan Guoer took it with a smile, sat down at the table, blew on the hot air, took a sip, raised her chin and praised it.
"Mom's chicken soup is the most delicious! And it's not greasy at all."
"I knew you didn't like greasy food!" Tang's mother raised an eyebrow. "It just so happened that your third brother came back. I saw that the boy had lost a lot of weight recently, so I skimmed off the greasy layer on top and gave it to him to drink!"
"Third brother is back again? And thinner? Isn't today the weekend?"
Lan Guoer raised her eyes, her mind full of thoughts.
"No! Today is Wednesday." Tang's mother replied.
"What about him? He left again?"
Tang's mother glanced around the yard but saw no one.
"Hey! He was just in the yard, saying he wanted to talk to you about something. I asked him, but he said it wasn't a big deal, so I didn't call you."
She raised an eyebrow and said, "Look at how his ears turned red when he asked that question. I guess it's probably related to that girl Shishi again."
Lan Guoer pursed her lips and nodded, "That should be it!"
After calming her stomach, Lan Guoer wiped her mouth and was about to go to the backyard to look for someone.
When I looked up, I saw Su Xing walking towards me with his head down.
"You look like you've been defeated. What's going on? Who challenged you?"
Lan Guoer pulled a chair for him, turned around and brewed two cups of tea, placing one in front of him.
Su Xing picked up the teacup and poured it into his mouth, completely ignoring that the tea was freshly poured.
"Sigh~Guo'er, you...you...are you planning to...kill your brother? Sigh~ha!"
The scalding water went down his throat, burning him so much that he grimaced, stuck out his tongue, and fanned himself with his hands.
Lan Guoer shook her head speechlessly and quickly poured him another glass of cold water.
"Look at you, aren't you usually very steady? How could you pour the boiling water I just poured directly into your mouth? And you even accused me of murdering my own brother? I think you have a grudge against your own mouth, right?"
After rinsing his mouth with cold water, Su Xing seemed to come back to life.
Gnawing on the tip of his teeth that were red and swollen from being burned, he said with an aggrieved look on his face, "I was just distracted. I just got angry again and didn't think too much about it when I saw the water."
Lan Guoer went back to the house and took out a tube of ointment, handed it to him, and said, "Don't worry if there are no bubbles. If there are bubbles, remember to apply it."
Su Xing pouted and nodded, then casually stuffed the ointment into his trouser pocket.
"Tell me, what happened this time?"
Hearing him sighing so much that he could hang a bottle of oil from his mouth, Lan Guoer frowned, "Are the books I gave you last time useless?"
"well!"
Su Xing knocked his head on the table with a "DUNG" sound, held the back of his head with both hands, and said in a muffled voice,
"If I had known dating was so annoying, I wouldn't have bothered with it!"
Seeing that he looked like he had lost all hope in life, Lan Guoer pouted helplessly.
Who says it isn't? But once the arrow is shot, there's no turning back. Isn't it too late to say anything now?
Seeing that he was about to fall asleep, Lan Guoer asked again, "What happened? Are you going to tell me or not? If you don't, I'm going to leave."
Su Xing then raised his head in disappointment, the hair on his forehead flying upwards due to his mess, and his originally sunny and handsome facial features were now stained with a layer of decadence.
"Guo'er, that girl has really changed her heart! How could she do this?"
As he said that, he slammed his fist on the table, which made Lan Guoer exclaim "Ci Ha" and quickly rubbed her little hands!
When she realized the meaning of his words, she was stunned again.
“No way?
She intuitively felt that this was not like Zhang Shishi's behavior, but looking at Su Xing's expression, it didn't seem fake.
"Did you confirm this with her? Did she tell you this herself?"
After all, she had seen so many melodramatic plots in her previous life, so Lan Guoer's first reaction was whether there was any misunderstanding here.
Su Xing shook his head and nodded.
"Although she didn't say it herself, it's no different than if she did! Anyway, that's what it means. She's dating that guy surnamed Shen! Moreover, the elders of both families have met each other."
Lan Guoer was dumbfounded!
I couldn't help but feel upset with myself for giving people random advice!
Wasn't it agreed that it was just for fun? How did it become real?
However, she soon discovered the problem in his words.
"What do you mean it's no different from what she said in person? Where did you hear that? Is there some misunderstanding?"
"What kind of misunderstanding could there be?" Su Xing sighed, rubbing his brows. "This is what her aunt told me herself. It's impossible for an elder like her to lie to me, right?"
Lan Guoer frowned and thought, feeling that something was amiss.
"Why would her aunt tell you this? How did you meet?"
"I hadn't seen that girl at school this week, so I asked her classmates.
After asking, I found out that the little girl had actually taken a leave of absence.
As for the reason for taking leave, no one can explain it clearly.
I was worried that something might have happened at her home, so I took a day off in the morning and drove to Zhang's house.
Who would have thought that everything was fine at Zhang Shishi's home and nothing happened!
No! That’s not right! "
He curled the corners of his lips in self-mockery and sneered.
“Something really happened at home, and it’s a happy event!
In order to arrange the girl's engagement, Aunt Wenhui and Uncle Minglang came all the way back from Country F.
You say, it has come to this, what misunderstandings could there be?!"
As he spoke, he covered his face with his hands, and there was a hint of sob in his voice.
Lan Guoer never thought that things would turn out like this!
He stroked his head lovingly, his expression becoming serious.
No wonder her third brother, who had just begun to appreciate love, would express such profound emotion as, "If I had known it would be so heartbreaking, I would have never met you in the first place."
He Zhuo was really hurt.
The saddest, most lamentable and infuriating thing is that you are the one who hands the knife to others.
This made her not know what to do for a moment!
As her thoughts raced, her eyes flickered, as if she had grasped something, and she asked again,
"Did you hear all this from Sister Shishi's aunt?"
Su Xing nodded.
"When I arrived at her house, only her aunt was home. Perhaps she was worried that I, a grown man, would ruin a girl's marriage, especially one she had just gotten engaged, because she saw me as someone who had no intention of ruining her relationship. That's why she told me all this."
