Chapter 21: Showing You the World
"What else do you know?!" Lin Yuan asked again.
"No, just these two~ Aside from those shameful things you and Dad made me do that even Mom doesn't know about, there's nothing else! And I'm not interested in any of them. I'm just waiting to get the money so I can buy a plane ticket and leave here right away! I won't even be going home. Now you can finally rest assured, right?"
"Well, I'll give you a few million and you leave now."
She hesitated for a long time and said through gritted teeth.
"Okay, okay, thank you, sister!" Lin Xi responded happily.
Lin Yuan took out a card and handed it to her, and Lin Xi quickly put it in her bag.
"Sister, I have something else to tell you!" Lin Xi suddenly lowered her voice, leaned close to Lin Yuan's ear mysteriously, and whispered softly,
"Your fiancé, Gu Yixiao, sent your sister here early in the morning and even bought medicine for her. He also kept his eyes on her most of the time. It seems like they have a close relationship. Should you pay attention to this?"
This was something she stumbled upon, and she felt compelled to tell her cash cow.
"You don't have to worry about this. I can take care of my man myself." Lin Yuan said lightly.
Lin Xi curled her lips, said nothing more, and ran away.
As soon as the two separated, Lin Yuan took off his disguise and was very sad about what his sister had just said.
It seems that she has to start planning her own plans in advance...
On the sidewalk.
Xu Ruochu and his friends walked towards the school. Since the distance was not far, they walked.
Suddenly, she remembered that she had left her schoolbag behind, so she stopped.
"You guys go ahead, I'll go back to the apartment to get a bag."
"Oh, okay. Let Huo Ran go with you to get it! He doesn't have classes today..."
Ran Ran took the opportunity to speak.
"No, no, I can go by myself," she said, waving at them.
Huo Ran knew his mission, so he took the initiative to follow Xu Ruochu.
As soon as Xu Ruochu turned around, he saw someone.
He was wearing white casual sportswear, which made him look energetic, handsome and stylish.
"you……"
She wanted to ask, but was interrupted by Huo Ran's smile.
"I went to my room to get a figurine, and I just happened to stop by."
Xu Ruochu nodded and walked side by side with him towards the high-end apartment.
In the distance, a luxury car was parked in a secluded place. Gu Yixiao, who was sitting in the driver's seat, looked at the backs of the two people and squinted his eyes.
Since the two of them were just ordinary friends, why would this young boy take the initiative to walk with her?
He took out his cell phone, dialed a number, and gave Shen Shen's instructions.
"Find someone for me and report back without revealing a single detail."
After hanging up the phone, Gu Yixiao threw the phone aside, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
…
"Xiaochu..."
When the two of them got their belongings in the apartment and were about to leave, Huo Ran suddenly called her, "I have something I feel I need to explain to you clearly."
Xu Ruochu looked up at him puzzledly: "What's the matter?"
Huo Ran hesitated for a moment, but decided to tell the truth.
"Ran Ran didn't tell you that she and I are cousins, right? In fact, she wanted you to get out of the haze as soon as possible, so she deliberately created an opportunity for us to contact each other."
"Ah~ So you... are her cousin? I see." No wonder I felt something was wrong with the other two good friends yesterday. It turned out to be this matter!
In her past life, she had heard Ran Ran talk about this cousin, but she had never met him. Back then, when she was heartbroken, her best friend had said that she wanted to introduce her to her cousin who was the most handsome, richest, and kindest person in her family, and who was only a few months younger than her.
At first, she didn't want to give up Gu Yixiao, nor did she want to let others down, so she decisively refused. Unexpectedly, in this life, Ran Ran still introduced this relative to her.
She and her besties always had such a good relationship! I wonder how long those two guys cried after she passed away?
As if he could see what she was thinking, Huo Ran smiled and said, "You don't have to feel burdened, and don't worry about my intentions. I really want to make friends with you and learn something from you!"
Because he had a scene that he often dreamed about and needed to confirm it with her, but it was not convenient to tell her now that they had just met.
She nodded and responded with a smile: "Okay, more friends mean more paths. I like making friends too!"
She would not question Huo Ran's character because she trusted her friend.
The two of them walked out of the apartment building one after the other. Huo Ran sent her to the school gate and then turned and left.
"goodbye!"
"goodbye……"
Out of politeness, she stood by the roadside and watched her new friend go away. Then she looked away and turned to walk into the campus.
This pure gaze was misunderstood by a certain man.
"Xu Ruchu."
Gu Yixiao came behind her and shouted.
"Um?"
She responded to the magnetic voice and looked sideways.
A man in a black suit stood in the sun, his face serious, yet he exuded a heart-pounding charm.
He was staring at himself expressionlessly, an inexplicable emotion spreading from him, with an aggressive tone.
"Cousin...cousin, is there something wrong..." Xu Ruochu's heart skipped a beat, then he opened his mouth and uttered a few words.
His gaze was too intense... She lowered her eyes uncomfortably.
"Come back to Gu's house with me."
His tone was still cold, but with unquestionable persistence.
"...Why?" She widened her eyes in confusion, "I still have classes to attend."
"Take a day off." He said lightly.
"No……"
She wanted to refuse, but Gu Yixiao coldly walked past her and got into his car first.
Rolling down the car window, he began to speak, "If you don't behave, I'll call your school's board of directors, and you won't get that hefty scholarship this year."
Money is not something to be joked about.
She hesitated for a few seconds, but finally compromised.
I really don't know how he became so domineering? !
She muttered something quietly as she got into the car, then sat silently in the corner of the back seat, keeping her distance from him.
After Gu Yixiao's car drove off the highway, it stopped at a deserted country road. He turned and stared at her, with a hint of darkness in his eyes.
"Why, are you afraid that I'll eat you?"
Xu Ruochu didn't answer but asked, "Why did you suddenly ask me to go back?"
Gu Yixiao: "There is a concert in the afternoon. You have to be there at noon and show you the world." "..." Xu Ruchu was surprised.
Last year, she seemed to have mentioned to him in a joking tone her request to take her to such a large-scale concert to see the world, but the result was predictable, it ended in a cold reception.
"I'm not used to having people around me." This was how he rejected her without hesitation.
At that time, she was heartless and didn't take these words to heart. Moreover, if she had heard such words at this time in her previous life, she would have been extremely happy.
But now that she was reborn, when she heard these words, she felt nothing in her heart.
"Oh, going to a concert? I don't like crowds, and besides, I'm not interested... I won't go. You should just take me back to school, or I can take the bus back by myself."
After saying that, she reached for the door handle, wanting to get out and leave.
Her action made him frown. He then pressed the lock button at hand, and the car door was locked immediately.
When Xu Ruchu saw that he couldn't push the door open, he felt puzzled.
"What are you doing?"
