Chapter 22: Judge a person by his appearance. I would rather give Gu Shiying a bath. ...
There was no way to park the car in front of Guoguo's house, so they parked in a nearby parking lot. On the way there, they saw several fruit shops, but Fu Huan was not very satisfied with the quality of the fruits. Instead of being perfunctory, he drove to a larger supermarket nearby and bought some fresh ones, which were several levels better in quality.
Fu Huan was the one picking the fruits the whole time. He had no idea whether they were good or not, and he wasn't that meticulous in his daily life.
He seemed to have met a completely new Fu Huan, who was completely different from the Fu Huan he had in mind.
He should be aloof, like a young master who is out of touch with the world and doesn't know the difference between grains. He should have common sense, but many people really don't know how to pick fruits.
Gu Shiying held up an apple that was completely unsweet and asked Fu Huan, "How do you know so much?"
Fu Huan: "I lived alone for a while in high school."
Gu Shiying: "Is your home far from school?"
Fu Huan: "Well, if you don't want to live in the school dormitory, you can rent a house outside."
Gu Shiying: "You've lived on your own since high school. You're quite independent."
Fu Huan smiled lightly: "You are the first person who praises my independence."
Gu Shiying couldn't think of any other answer: "What else?"
Fu Huan: "People always ask why you don't live with your family."
Gu Shiying had indeed not thought of this point, but he did not ask any further questions, for fear of touching upon something that Fu Huan did not want to mention.
He said: "I think living out on your own takes a lot of courage. It proves you're independent. It's the dream of many boys. Parents won't interfere too much, and you can sleep in as late as you want on weekends."
Fu Huan nodded: "Indeed, living alone is very free, without the supervision of parents."
Gu Shiying: "But living on your own still requires self-control."
Fu Huan realized that his self-control was indeed good. Gu Shiying had been hanging around in front of him for more than a year, but he had not taken any action.
The two chatted as they walked to the checkout area.
Cashier: "Hello, the total is..."
The last time they came to Guoguo's house, they were in a hurry and Gu Shiying was still sick, so he didn't have time to take a look at the surrounding environment.
The old houses are basically self-built houses, and none of them are higher than three stories.
The alley was too narrow for cars to fit in. Old, dirty electric bikes were parked on both sides, and the ground hadn't been plowed for a long time, making it uneven. Gu Shiying and Fu Huan couldn't walk side by side, so they had to walk one in front of the other.
When I was about to reach the front, I saw three little boys surrounding a child, and one of them was pulling the little boy's clothes.
"Fool, idiot, you even wet your pants, hahahaha!"
"Silly boy, go get your grandma's money and we'll take you to find your mother."
The child was dragged by a tall boy and stumbled to the ground. When he heard the word "Mom", he looked up at the little boy.
The tall boy said to his companion, "Hahaha, it seems like he really believed it."
Gu Shiying saw Guoguo falling to the ground and rushed forward: "What are you guys doing!"
When the children saw him coming towards them angrily, they immediately ran away!
Gu Shiying helped Guoguo up, and the three children who had just been bullied were brought back by Fu Huan, and none of them were spared.
These three children were about seven or eight years old, just the age that even dogs dislike.
The tall boy struggled hard: "Let me go!"
Fu Huan stared at them with a cold face and immediately stopped.
Gu Shiying brushed off the dust on Guoguo's pants and checked if he was injured. He breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he was not injured.
He looked at the three boys and asked, "Why are you bullying Guoguo? Who is your homeroom teacher?"
The three boys hung their heads in silence, and their shoulders shrank when they heard the word "class teacher".
Fu Huan threatened, "Call the parents and ask them to pay the ransom."
He was tall, and standing in front of them he looked like an insurmountable mountain, which scared the children.
"I, we won't dare to do that next time."
Gu Shiying: "Then you should apologize to Guoguo."
The three boys didn't expect that someone would stand up for Guoguo. They were really scared and became cowardly. They apologized quickly.
Fu Huan continued to play the villain: "Next time I see you bullying others, I will tie you up and throw you into the pond."
The three boys were so frightened that they kept nodding their heads: "Yes, yes, yes! We won't dare to do it again!"
Fu Huan let them go only after hearing a satisfactory answer.
The three boys ran away as fast as rabbits, fearing that the big guy would really tie them up.
Gu Shiying picked up Guoguo, touched his hand and listened to his heart. Just like last time, he was still calling for his mother in his heart.
Gu Shiying: "Did you come out because you missed your mother?"
Guoguo did react a little when she heard the word "Mom".
Fu Huan: "Let's take him back first. I think Grandma Lin will be anxious if she can't see anyone."
Gu Shiying: "Okay."
He carried Guoguo and walked towards his home. Not far away, he saw Grandma Lin standing at the door with a cane, looking for someone.
“Guoguo!”
"Where has this child gone?"
She turned around and saw Gu Shiying walking towards her holding Guoguo.
Grandma Lin patted her chest and said, "I was so scared, Guoguo, why did you run out and scare Grandma? Why are Xiao Gu and Xiao Fu here? Come in quickly."
Fu Huan stepped forward and helped Grandma Lin into the house.
Grandma Lin wanted to pour them some water, but Gu Shiying told her not to bother.
Gu Shiying: "Grandma, please sit down. We are not thirsty."
Grandma Lin: "Anyone who comes is a guest."
Gu Shiying: "We just heard that you fell and hurt your foot, so we came to check on you."
Grandma Lin: "It's okay, it will be fine in two days."
Gu Shiying: "You're welcome. If you need any help, just let us know."
In fact, Grandma Lin downplayed the fact that she fell. The community was able to call Fu Huan's cell phone because she fainted after the fall.
Grandma Lin: "How can I trouble you?"
In fact, when Gu Shiying and Fu Huan came in, they saw that Grandma Lin's house was much messier than before. The dishes from lunch had not yet been cleaned up, and the chili sauce to be sold had not yet been refrigerated.
Gu Shiying: "It's okay, I also volunteer at the welfare home, and I have a connection with Guoguo."
Grandma Lin: "Then please give Guoguo a bath. He likes to be clean. I didn't give him a bath yesterday because he fell. I didn't sleep well last night."
The old man and the child are the ones who are taken care of by the community. There is a canteen there, and meals will be delivered to the two of them, but other people are busy, and no matter how much they help, they can't help much.
Gu Shiying discovered that Guoguo did have dark circles under her eyes.
"Then let's give him a bath."
This bungalow has two rooms. Grandma Lin sleeps in one room and Guoguo sleeps in the other. The small room has a bed, a wardrobe, and a desk with a family photo on it. The walls are covered with childish pictures and several rows of small red flowers, which is quite cozy.
Gu Shiying said: "Guoguo must have been loved growing up. His parents must have loved him very much."
Fu Huan glanced intently at the family portrait on the table and asked, "Well, get him some clothes?"
Gu Shiying: "Grandma Lin said they are all in the closet. He likes to wear light-colored tops and jeans."
Fu Huan picked up a few items at random.
Guoguo didn't object to Gu Shiying and Fu Huan giving him a bath, but it was inevitable that his skin would be touched during the bath, so Gu Shiying gave this task to Fu Huan.
Gu Shiying: "You wash it for him? I'll go help clean up."
Fu Huan refused to let him go: "I've never bathed a child."
Gu Shiying: "Me neither, it's similar to our usual bathing, right?"
"Yes, together." Fu Huan insisted.
His dark eyes just stared at Gu Shiying, with Gu Shiying's figure reflected in his eyes. He did not retreat at all. Instead, Gu Shiying did not dare to meet his eyes and looked at Guoguo who was following them.
"Okay." Gu Shiying was not only afraid of hearing Guoguo's sad voice, but also afraid of running into Fu Huan. This man always ran into him, and he suspected that Fu Huan was scheming and trying every means to touch him, but his voice did not mention his little thoughts.
No, Fu Huan's thoughts were all about himself. His inner voice was like a triple-folding phone; no matter how it was folded, he was always there.
Gu Shiying picked up Guoguo and said, "Guoguo, let's go take a shower!"
The bathroom is not big, but it is divided into dry and wet areas.
One person can stand inside and another can stand outside, so it seems a bit crowded for two adults to stay inside.
Fu Huan raised his hand, took down the shower head and adjusted the water temperature: "Okay, bring him in."
Gu Shiying took off Guoguo's clothes and carried her inside.
"Fu Huan, wash his hair first."
"His head is so small, like a kiwi."
Gu Shiying laughed out loud: "It does seem so."
Fu Huan had big palms that could cover Guoguo's little head with one hand. He squeezed in to scratch Guoguo's hair with gentle movements. He also carefully used his hands to block the foam from getting into Guoguo's eyes.
I found that my opinion of Fu Huan had changed again. He was tall and looked indifferent and uninterested in everything, but he was actually careful and gentle, and he knew how to choose fruits.
If someone had told him that Fu Huan was like this before, he would definitely have thought that the other person was talking nonsense, but now that he saw it with his own eyes, he was the one judging people by their appearance.
Guoguo was well-behaved and quiet, so giving him a bath went smoothly. After Fu Huan finished washing and drying himself, Gu Shiying handed the clothes to Fu Huan and asked him to put them on one by one.
Guoguo smelled delicious after taking a bath. Gu Shiying couldn't help but smile and praise him: "So cute."
Fu Huan held Guoguo's armpits with both hands and handed him to Gu Shiying to hold: "The ground is wet. You take him out. I will clean up the water on the ground."
Gu Shiying took Guoguo wrapped in a towel and said, "OK!"
During the handover process, Gu Shiying touched Fu Huan's slightly hot palm without any accident.
【I would rather give Gu Shiying a bath.】
"..." Gu Shiying couldn't laugh anymore.
Damn, he still judges people by their appearance.
The author has something to say:
