Only the sting can make him sober...
He yanked away and stood up.
Lin Qingping placed a vase of flowers on the table between the bed and his bunk bed, "Boundary line! Those who cross the line don't need to sleep in the room, just stand in circles downstairs every day!"
He spread out the mat again and lay down.
Lin Qingping sneered, "Don't you even ask me what standing in a circle is?"
"No need to ask." He said, "I won't cross the line again."
After that, he said, "I'm sorry."
"Gu Juncheng, you've said sorry too many times." Lin Qingping turned off the light. "I've said before that I don't want to hear anyone say sorry in front of me, because once they say sorry, it means I've been let down or humiliated, and I don't like that."
"Well," he said, "I won't do that again."
What does "never again in the future" mean? Lin Qingping couldn't figure it out now. She had tried her best to get this person back, but he kept retreating.
Gu Juncheng, what if you just take one step forward?
Am I not worthy?
In the darkness, Lin Qingping no longer thought about Gu Juncheng's "never again". The cloud of worry that rose in her heart was because of Cheng Yuanyuan.
Her mother and her brother were a hell of a lot of people. Cheng Yuanyuan was the daughter who grew up spoiled by her family. She was gentle and kind, and was no match for her mother and brother. She was bullied at home, but she endured it in silence and swallowed all her tears. She only reported good news to her parents, and only said that everything was fine. Later, Director Cheng was diagnosed with cancer, and it was already in the late stage. Cheng Yuanyuan was even more unwilling for her parents to worry about her, and she lived a depressed life until she was in her early forties, and died of illness.
And she had not done much for Cheng Yuanyuan in her previous life. At most, she gave him some gifts and money secretly, and also paid money when Cheng Yuanyuan's father was sick and Cheng Yuanyuan herself was sick.
For this reason, when Cheng Yuanyuan passed away, she was still holding her hand and said that having her as her elder sister-in-law was the only comfort in her life.
Cheng Yuanyuan's terminally ill and emaciated appearance in her last moments was still clearly engraved in her mind after a lifetime.
Her heart instantly tightened. In fact, in her previous life, she was really not worthy of Cheng Yuanyuan's last words.
She didn't know what the specific process was like between Cheng Yuanyuan and her brother in this life, but she could not erase Cheng Yuanyuan's tearful face from her mind no matter what.
Maybe she should go back anyway.
The next morning, she started packing and told everyone the plan she had been thinking about all night. "Starting today, we officially enter summer vacation. Big sister and Xiaomai have already left on the early morning train to see Du Gen. Zhiyuan and the others will start summer camp tomorrow and have military practice. I plan to go back. Xiaoxiao, come with me. We can just go out for fun. Mom and Dad, you and Chengzi can just stay at home and relax."
Lin Qingping plans to buy a train ticket for the day after tomorrow and go back after Zhiyuan officially enters the camp.
Lin Qingping's parents-in-law were stunned when they heard this.
"Pingzi, don't blame me for speaking bluntly. Are you going back because we are here?" Liu Fen asked.
"Of course not." Gu Juncheng answered for her, "But it was because of you. If you hadn't mentioned her brother's marriage, would she have been in such a hurry to go back?"
Liu Fen listened and nodded, "That's right, my brother is getting married, and as the eldest sister, I have to go back to see him, but we..."
"If you give up on what you said yesterday, I will pretend I didn't hear it. If you bring it up again, I will keep my word." Gu Juncheng said, "Since Pingzi is going back, I will go back too. You two can go together."
"But this..." Liu Fen was a little unhappy and glared at her son, "We finally came here, and you want us to go back after staying for one day?"
"Okay, let's go back." Gu Dafu frowned and said, "The Lin family is having a wedding, so how can he, the brother-in-law, not go back?"
Liu Fen stopped talking.
So, Gu Juncheng went out and bought five train tickets, and the next day after Zhiyuan entered the summer camp, the group of five set off.
At first, Zhong Xiaoxiao was reluctant to go along, but how could Lin Qingping leave her alone in the capital? What if Liu Dong came looking for her? Zhong Xiaoxiao couldn't be allowed to go back to her hometown either, because that would be like sending a sheep into the tiger's mouth.
Zhong Xiaoxiao hesitated for a long time, but was finally persuaded by Lin Qingping and got on the train with them.
The first county to arrive.
Now there are regular buses from the county to the village. Gu Juncheng bought tickets for the two elders at the bus station and sent them directly on the bus back to the village without letting them stay in the county for a single day.
Just when Zhong Xiaoxiao thought Lin Qingping was going to buy a ticket back to Linjia Village, she saw Gu Juncheng coming back and saying, "Let's go, let's stay in a guesthouse in the county."
Zhong Xiaoxiao was surprised. Wasn't it Lin Qingping's brother from her mother's family getting married? She was planning to give a gift.
However, Lin Qingping had no intention of returning to Linjia Village, and Gu Juncheng actually knew tacitly that she was not going back to Linjia Village. Lin Qingping could not help but snort again.
Gu Juncheng pretended not to hear and led the way to the guesthouse and booked two rooms.
"Xiaoxiao and I will sleep together!" Lin Qingping glanced at Gu Juncheng sideways on the way to the room.
Zhong Xiaoxiao was frightened. "No, no, no, goodbye. I'll sleep alone. You two can sleep in the same room."
"No, that won't work. Aren't you afraid to be alone? We are unfamiliar with this place. Our Chengzi is the most considerate and generous person. He will definitely not refuse me to accompany you." Lin Qingping rolled her eyes at Gu Juncheng.
What else can Gu Juncheng say?
He has to be understanding and generous!
After resting for a night in the guesthouse, Lin Qingping planned to go to see Director Cheng alone early the next morning.
