Chapter 99: The Supporting Actress Whose Work Was Stealthed by Her Sister (Extra)
During summer vacation, cicadas chirped non-stop outside.
The property management received a complaint from the Jiang family and they had to drive away all the cicadas around.
The only son of the Jiang family was hit by a car and had a serious eye injury. He may lose his sight forever. It's quite sad.
But the Gu family who had just moved in next door were in high spirits. Gu Shengwen's career was at its peak, and Zhao Xiumei was busy going out socializing, so she couldn't take care of much at home.
Gu Jingjing also often goes out to play with friends, all of whom are new acquaintances here. Of course, they must come from wealthy families to be able to live here.
Gu Wan was brought here to spend the summer vacation. Her parents also wanted to visit the provincial capital, but after she came here, there was no one to play with her. There was no one at home all day long. However, she was usually very quiet, and fortunately she brought enough books with her.
Her room was also arranged casually by Zhao Xiumei. Her aunt was busy and didn't care about her. This bedroom faces north, but the window is very large. When you open it, you can see a lush tree and the chirping of cicadas. She thinks this is the only one that feels like her home. She wants to go back, but she doesn't dare to ask. Her favorite thing every day is to lie by the window and look at the scenery outside. The family next door has been quarreling frequently recently.
But it has nothing to do with her.
But one day, a blindfolded boy appeared in her sight. Her bedroom was on the second floor, so she could see everything below clearly.
On the first day, she didn't dare to say a word. She just reviewed and recited the classical Chinese text silently, but she found that silent recitation was useless and she still had to read it out loud.
She only read it out loud the next day.
On the third day, she simply read aloud, and the boy who had been sitting there didn't seem to care.
"Can't you see?"
Jiang Yue knew that she was talking to him, the new person who moved next door, but he didn't want to talk to her.
Gu Wan sighed. He was probably in a bad mood. Never mind. He was injured so badly that being impolite was understandable.
"Your eyes will get better." She didn't know how to comfort him, so she could only say this.
Jiang Yue felt that she was annoying, so he simply stood up and stretched out his hand to grope his way back, but he didn't stand firmly and fell down.
Gu Wan was so frightened that she took a deep breath.
"Don't worry, I'm the only one here and no one can see me."
Jiang Yue felt extremely embarrassed and even more disgusted with her. He got up and walked back by himself.
On the fourth day, Gu Wan sat in front of the window after breakfast. The invisible brother next door did not come.
It was three or four days before he reappeared.
Gu Wan immediately laughed and waved to him, but then she realized that he couldn't see her.
"Brother, you are finally here. I thought I would never see you again."
Jiang Yue thought that instead of listening to their nagging at home, it would be better to hide here.
Gu Wan kept muttering, "I ate vinegar meatballs today. Auntie made them very delicious, but I only ate one." Her tone was a little low at the end because her cousin had eaten the rest. Her mother said that she should be humble in other people's homes, so she didn't dare to say that she liked it.
Jiang Yue still didn't say anything.
It was not until half a month later that Gu Wan tried to solve the math problem but couldn't.
"Brother, can you do it? I can't think of it no matter how hard I try."
Jiang Yue didn't know how he felt about her, he just thought she was a little girl.
"Read the question to me."
Gu Wan thought that he was still silent as usual, but she didn't expect that he was not mute.
"Really?"
Jiang Yue nodded helplessly.
Gu Wan finished reading the question.
Jiang Yue has already figured out the answer.
"That's how it's solved. Try it."
Gu Wan lowered her head and wrote on the draft paper, then shouted in surprise.
"Really? Brother, you are so smart, you are really smart." People in the provincial capital are different from those in their county.
When Jiang Yue heard her voice, he felt like he was still a normal person.
Gu Wan made an appointment with him to meet again tomorrow.
Jiang Yue agreed.
"You want me to help you with your studies, right?"
Gu Wan didn't hide it and smiled guiltily, "Also, I can accompany my brother. I'm new here and don't have many friends."
Jiang Yue was in a good mood. When he got home, he asked his aunt to make the delicious vinegar meatballs that Gu Wan had mentioned.
He also corrected Gu Wan's English pronunciation and math problem-solving skills.
"Brother, do you know? The snow in our hometown is so beautiful. You must come and see it if you have the chance. My mother also baked some sweet potatoes for me in the oven. They are really sweet. I can give you half of them."
Jiang Yue's mouth corners raised.
"Can I only have half?"
Gu Wan nodded, "My mother only allows me to eat one, and I'm giving you half. Then I'll give you the other half, since I can eat it often."
Jiang Yue listened to her say many things, and later he wanted to open his eyes and look at the girl.
"I'm going to have surgery, and the doctor said there's only a 50% chance of seeing. Do you think I'll be successful?"
Gu Wan held up her chin and said, "Of course, brother, you are so capable. I think you will succeed in whatever you do. You must believe in yourself. My father told me that running away will not solve any problem."
Jiang Yue nodded.
"Okay, I won't come tomorrow. I'm going to have surgery. Wait for me to find you."
Gu Wan wasn't sure if she could stay here for another week.
"Okay, I'll wait for you too."
Jiang Yue thought that he seemed to have fallen in love with her. If he could see her, he would come to find her. If he couldn't see her, he would never show up again.
It was a long, long time later that he realized that even though he could see with his eyes, he could not find her because he was the one who gave up first.
