Extra 5: The Love That Can Be Controlled
"Ruan Xingyue, come to the school to pick up your sister."
A cold phone call cut off all the romantic thoughts in Ruan Xingmian's heart.
A minute ago, she was ruthlessly torn off Gu Xing.
He casually lifted her up with one hand, and she stood steadily on the cobblestone path.
He still held the small stone he used to launch the sneak attack in his hand.
"Gu Xing..."
With tears in her eyes, she stared at Gu Xing with a wronged look, trying to awaken the sympathy of the cold and aloof academic god.
She even thought of the lines for her tearful confession.
"Don't come over here."
An iceberg is always an iceberg. He raised his hand to refuse her from getting closer, and took out his cell phone to call her parents.
Jianglitianxia detached villa.
"Did she really come to see you?" Ruan Xingyue was wearing a milky white silk suspender pajamas. She had no time to change, so she opened the cloakroom and picked up an apricot coat to put on.
"Gu Xing, give her the phone."
The next second, Ruan Xingmian got Gu Xing's phone in surprise.
It is a very old style, with a black body, calm and elegant, but with a white appearance, it looks very old.
The reason why she knew it was old was because this phone was just launched eight years ago, and its advertising and marketing was handled by her mother Ye Lan's studio.
When Ye Lan was working, he liked to hold her on his lap, patiently explaining the client's requirements to her one by one, and then asked her: "Baby, what do you think?"
Ruan Xingmian has a brain that is not constrained by anything. His ideas are all kinds of wild. A clever idea that comes out of his mouth casually can help Ye Lan Studio's advertising designer save a lot of hair.
He uses such an old mobile phone in this era of rampant materialism and material competition.
Have you ever been secretly talked about because your cell phone is cheap and old?
Ruan Xingmian felt distressed and uncomfortable for no reason.
"Mianmian?"
When I heard my sister's voice, tears started to fall. Her voice sounded aggrieved and sad.
"sister……"
She didn't know that as her tears fell, the icy eyes three steps away were slightly touched, and the eyelashes trembled very lightly for a moment, so fast that it seemed like an illusion, and then were deliberately suppressed, returning to a calm state.
"Did Gu Xing bully you?" Her sister's tone turned cold and she was about to come over to support her.
Ruan Xingmian looked up at the person opposite her, raised the back of her hand to wipe away her tears, "He didn't bully me, he just..."
She paused sadly. "He just doesn't like me."
"That's because he doesn't know what's good for him." Ruan Xingyue stepped on the accelerator and said, "Wait until I come over. I'll let him be with you right away."
Don't do this.
Ruan Xingmian was very opposed to it in his heart.
She subconsciously protected Gu Xing, but she was the one who didn't know what was good for her.
Holding Gu Xing's phone, she walked away step by step, lowering her voice, "Sister, you know his character. He would rather die than live in disgrace. If you use projects and your future to help me force him, not only will your cooperation not go smoothly, but he will just dislike me now, and in the future he will hate and despise me."
"Sister, believe me, even though he didn't agree to be my boyfriend, he still treated me differently."
"Oh?" Ruan Xingyue smiled. "What's the difference? Tell me about it."
Ruan Xingmian lowered her voice to the lowest possible level, "I just shamelessly hugged him, and he didn't even hit me."
Ruan Xingyue just felt funny and angry: "..."
I laugh because of my sister's cuteness.
I was angry because Gu Xing didn't know what was good for him.
"Wait for me at the gate," Ruan Xingyue thought for a moment and added, "Let him take you there."
"good."
After hanging up the phone, Ruan Xingmian had a clear goal. He turned his back to Gu Xing and quickly opened Gu Xing's green bubble.
Damn, my phone is lagging.
"Give me back my phone." Gu Xing walked over.
"Oh, okay, right away."
Finally, the WeChat page popped up and I clicked on the new friend.
Her beautiful pupils shrank slightly, and she moved her fingers up and down to refresh, but there were no new friends to verify.
This proves that Gu Xing read every one of her friend verifications, but he didn't click to approve.
He wasn't too busy to notice; he was deliberately ignoring it.
Ruan Xingmian's rock-hard heart was slightly shaken for the first time.
She turned around and tucked her phone closer to her chest: "Gu Xing, does my liking you cause you much trouble?"
Gu Xing's attitude was a little unclear. He seemed to want to nod, but also wanted to say something.
"You have someone you like, right?" Ruan Xingmian is a bit impatient when it comes to relationships and is eager to get an answer.
She took a deep breath and asked, "That person is my sister, right?"
She could think of no other answer.
She observed the girls around Gu Xing and found that no other girl could compare to her sister.
They are both pearl students of Xinlan Foundation, with excellent academic performance and extraordinary talents.
As rare as a pearl.
It is not uncommon for two people to like each other, and some may even be made for each other.
When passersby see them, they will stop and wish them a happy marriage.
The more silent Gu Xing was, the more uncomfortable Ruan Xingmian felt.
If the two people he loves most like each other, she should bless them.
But she felt so sad.
"No..." Gu Xing finally spoke, his eyes slightly anxious.
"You don't have to comfort me," Ruan Xingmian was trapped in imaginary emotions and couldn't extricate herself. She was convinced that Gu Xing was secretly in love with her sister.
As she handed over the phone, her slender wrist trembled slightly. "I'm sorry, I'm a little ignorant."
Gu Xing reached out to take it, "Ruan Xingmian, what are you thinking about?"
Ruan Xingmian's mood had sunk to the bottom and he was speechless.
For the past three years, she was worried every day that Gu Xing would be with someone else.
She asks her sister almost every day if Gu Xing has someone he likes.
Today, a flash of inspiration came to him. The best girl around Gu Xing was only her sister.
The arrogant and beautiful sister Ji Ling is slightly inferior.
Everyone has a desire to be strong.
She can like Gu Xing.
Gu Xing can also like his sister.
"I won't bother you again." Ruan Xingmian said this while enduring the dull pain in his heart.
"Can you say one last thing to me? Congratulations on getting into college."
"Congratulations," he hesitated, looking a little unhappy, "I'll take you to the school gate."
Ruan Xingmian felt empty inside. She had been looking forward to this day for one thousand and ninety days.
The closer the day gets, the happier I feel.
At this moment, all the joy in my heart turned into inexplicable depression and grievance.
"No thanks." She shook her head vigorously. "I'll give you my phone back."
Her eyes were full of grievance and sadness when she handed over the phone.
Gu Xing's heart trembled slightly.
I don't want to see her sad, so I should comfort her.
His language system suddenly became disordered, and he was so anxious that he couldn't utter a word.
Gu Xing was distracted for a moment and didn't take it seriously.
The phone, which Ruan Xingmian complained was "too old", fell "bang" on the cobblestones. When the sound of the screen cracking came out, both of them froze for a moment.
"I'm sorry!" Ruan Xingmian was shocked. All her sadness and sorrow disappeared. She squatted down in panic and picked up the phone first.
The cracks spread from the corners like spider webs, and the snow-capped mountains in the lock screen wallpaper were cut into pieces.
"I'm sorry, I really didn't mean to." This is definitely not revenge for not going through my friend. "I'll compensate you..."
"It has nothing to do with you," Gu Xing squatted down after her and interrupted her softly. His fingertips paused on the broken screen, and when he looked up, his eyes were calm. "I didn't catch it."
"No, I'm the one who's been bothering you. If I hadn't come looking for you, you would have gone back to the dormitory by now, and your phone wouldn't have died."
Ruan Xingmian took out his latest mobile phone and said, "Let's change the SIM card. I'll give you my phone first. I'll buy a new one tomorrow..."
She thought for a moment and said, "I'll have my sister bring it to you."
"Really." Gu Xing casually put his phone in his pocket and glanced at the watch on his wrist. "I'll take you to the gate. Your sister should be here soon."
"Gu Xing, let me compensate you with a cell phone."
Gu Xing walked towards the school gate, and Ruan Xingmian had to jog to catch up with him.
She took out her card and handed the phone to Gu Xing: "You can use mine first."
"Need not."
"I have money."
Gu Xing walked in front, "I know."
"Gu Xing," Ruan Xingmian called him solemnly, "If you accept this phone, I promise I will never bother you again. If you don't accept it, I will feel guilty and hate myself every night for causing you trouble."
She was spoiled without limits by her family, but everyone also taught her that the bottom line of being spoiled was that she couldn't cause trouble to others.
At the bus stop, Gu Xing finally stopped.
He took big steps, as if he was eager to see someone, or as if he was eager to get rid of certain emotions.
Ruan Xingmian followed breathlessly.
"Gu Xing, I mean what I said. I won't bother you again."
He stood under the street light, and the night wind blew on him with a hint of autumn coolness.
His Adam's apple rolled, and he raised his head and exhaled towards the dark gray night sky. The ball of carbon dioxide was quickly torn apart by the wind, just like some emotion he had not expressed out loud.
There was silence for a few seconds, with only the rustling of leaves in the wind.
Ruan Xingmian bravely stepped forward and tried to force the phone into Gu Xing's schoolbag.
He suddenly grabbed my wrist.
When he turned around, his eyes seemed to be covered with a thin layer of ice, yet there were some cracks hidden in them: "If you say you want to disturb me, then I will disturb you. If you say you don't want to disturb me, then I won't disturb you."
He paused, his fingertips unconsciously tightening a little, "Ruan Xingmian, you can control your likes and dislikes very well."
