Chapter 64 What a coincidence, cousin
"I don't want to lie to myself." His tone was filled with deep fatigue.
Xu Ruochu was silent. It was obvious that he was really tired, and it was time to let him go.
She didn't want to force him anymore. No matter what the outcome between him and Lin Yuan was, she would withdraw when the time came. It didn't matter how the two of them handled it.
"Okay, I'll wait for you." She comforted him, "But before that, I hope we can pay attention to the situation over there with grandma and make sure she doesn't find out."
"Don't worry, it'll be fine."
As he spoke, he leaned forward.
Sealed with a kiss.
Xu Ruochu was frightened again and his eyes widened.
His kiss was still domineering and passionate, as if he wanted to swallow her whole.
Although they had kissed many times, Xu Ruchu was still caught off guard by his sudden intimacy, and her mind went blank.
Her mouth was blocked by him so tightly that she could only make whimpering sounds and had no room to breathe...
However, the kiss lasted as usual, not too long, to prevent her from getting breathless due to her lack of kissing experience.
He let go of her, rested his forehead against hers, and his nose touched hers. Their breaths entangled and danced together.
He stared at her with his deep eyes, which were dark and deep, as if brewing some emotions.
His gaze was so hot that it almost melted her.
Xu Ruochu's body gradually became stiff. "Stop it, cousin. I'm really busy these days. After the National Day holiday, and since your and Lin Yuan's affairs are not so urgent, can we meet again?"
"What's the matter with you? You can't even learn boxing?" Gu Yixiao's tone was sour.
"...I want to take an Italian language course so I don't become too rusty when I go study abroad in Rome in two years." Xu Ruochu said seriously, "It's perfect to sign up now, so I'll do some reading ahead of time. I'll also start learning boxing next month."
Once she learns it, she can completely leave the country and the Gu family... This is also the retreat she has planned for herself.
"You really work hard! Good, you're ambitious." Gu Yixiao ruffled her hair, then let go without forcing her. "Okay, I'll do as you say."
"Thank you, cousin!"
She said with a smile, then gently pushed him out of the room, "You go back first, I'll take care of my own things and come find you."
As she closed the door, she added, "Remember, don't come looking for me unexpectedly~ Bye!"
Gu Yixiao stood outside the door, quietly staring at her action of closing the door, and suddenly felt that he was becoming more and more confused. As soon as he saw her, it was as if he was poisoned. He would be attracted to her unconsciously, and it was difficult to control his behavior. Even his body obeyed her!
He shook his head and turned away.
A few days later, it was the last day of the month and the day before the National Day holiday.
As expected, Xu Ruochu never received any more calls or text messages from Gu Yixiao.
This made her feel a little funny. The domineering man really became so obedient...
There are programs in the school in the afternoon.
After school, all the teachers and students came to the school auditorium to listen to the principal on the stage to promote the various activities for National Day.
The principal was speaking on the stage, and many people were dozing off in the audience.
Especially the trio, chatting about their own things.
"I'm so excited! I'm going on a date with my senior after the event~" For the first time ever, Ran Ran didn't play mobile games when she was bored. Instead, she discussed with Xu Ruchu and Xia Xiaomo about staying in a hotel tonight.
"Did you remember my advice? Don't live together. After watching the sunrise, remember to stay away from trees and other objects." Xu Ruchu reminded while flipping through the book.
Ran Ran curled her lips and responded innocently, "Of course I remember it. Don't worry, I will pay attention to all dangers."
Xu Ruochu nodded with satisfaction, "Hold the book for me, I'm going to the bathroom."
After saying that, he secretly exchanged a glance with Xia Xiaomo.
"Okay." Ran Ran didn't notice the expressions of the two people and continued to indulge in the fantasy of traveling far away with her male idol.
After leaving the auditorium, Xu Ruochu did not go to the bathroom. Instead, he took the food and bedding prepared in advance by the doorman into the rented car.
She couldn't persuade Ran Ran anymore. Only if her friend saw the true face of the selfish man with her own eyes would she give up.
But before that, she and Xiaomo had already discussed that the two of them would secretly follow over tonight, one would be responsible for protecting Ran Ran, and the other would be responsible for filming the man's actions that would make her lose favor.
In order to avoid arousing the other party's suspicion, this rented car is the best cover.
After she packed up all the things that could stay in the car overnight, she locked the car and prepared to return to the auditorium.
Just as she turned around, she was suddenly blocked by a wall of flesh.
She took a step back in shock, and when she looked up, it was...
Gu Yixiao.
"What a coincidence?" Gu Yixiao crossed his arms over his chest, with a slight smile on his lips.
As soon as he came out of the school board meeting, he saw the girl carrying large and small bags of things into the car, which instantly aroused his curiosity.
Xu Ruochu smiled awkwardly and nodded, "Yeah, what a coincidence, cousin."
"What are you doing? Whose car is this?" he asked, with a look of confusion in his eyes.
"It's nothing. By the way, tomorrow is your engagement day with Sister Lin Yuan. No matter how you handle it, I hope you don't make grandma sad," she said.
Gu Yixiao didn't say anything else, but stared into her eyes.
There seemed to be many things hidden in his eyes, which Xu Ruchu could not understand.
He looked at her for a while before asking quietly, "Are you thinking about grandma, or are you really doing this for my happiness?"
She was stunned.
"Why do I feel like you care about grandma more than me?" Gu Yixiao asked.
"Grandma is my elder and the best person to me. There is no comparison between you!" Xu Ruchu retorted.
He raised an eyebrow and smiled faintly.
She was right, grandma should be put first, she is indeed a filial girl.
He changed the subject, "Your meeting will last quite a while. Go to the back and walk around. No one else will see you anyway."
She hesitated and nodded.
Then, the two came to the playground and strolled in the shadows behind the street lights.
Chatting about life, work and studies these days.
Suddenly, a mouse jumped out from the bushes, and Xu Ruchu was so scared that he quickly stepped back.
"Ah! Rat!"
She screamed, but Gu Yixiao picked her up and comforted her, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
Xu Ruochu was indeed frightened, and it took him a long time to recover.
She has been afraid of rodents since she was a child, and it has not changed over the years. She will be scared to death when she encounters one.
She subconsciously leaned into his arms, breathing carefully.
Xu Ruochu raised her head, only to see Gu Yixiao looking down at her.
She was slightly embarrassed.
