Chapter 31 Don't Cry Anymore
Gu Xing picked up his schoolbag and just walked out of the computer study room.
Lu Tian suddenly appeared and blocked his way: "Brother, I told you at noon that you should join my team. What do you think?"
Lu Tian was not affected at all by the arrest of Cai Qiang and Li Wei. Instead, he felt quite proud of himself.
"At the Mid-Autumn Festival family dinner next month, my grandfather will officially inform my uncle and hand Huanyin over to me. I promise you, you will go directly to the Huanyin Artificial Intelligence Lab. My father will be the sole technical leader, and you will have complete creative freedom, research and development freedom, and financial freedom."
Gu Xing frowned slightly at first, then sighed softly: "Teacher Qin..."
Lu Tian raised his hand and patted his shoulder: "Don't worry about this. As long as you think it over, I will take care of it with Teacher Qin."
He walked out and said, "It's my birthday the day after tomorrow. I've booked the Monsoon Hotel. Bring your sister Xingmian along. I'll bring the contract to you when the time comes."
Gu Xingmu watched him go, her brows gloomy. She slung her bag over one shoulder, patted his shoulder, and called Qin Zhen expressionlessly: "When can I just punch him and tell him to get lost?"
Qin Zhen was stunned: "Lu Tian is looking for you again?"
Gu Xing said nothing and walked towards the flower bed.
"Drag it on first, Gu Xing, calm down."
The master and apprentice talked a few words about the project and hung up the phone.
Because of his tall stature, Gu Xing could see the little head peeking out of the flower bed at a glance.
All the depression in my heart was swept away.
"Gu Xing!" Ruan Xingmian came over stealthily wearing a mask.
"I don't want to go back to school. I'll be exposed sooner or later. If my sister finds out about my absence, she'll kill me!"
Gu Xing grabbed her right hand and gently squeezed it: "Don't be afraid, come with me."
Where are we going? Elope?
Not really.
Ruan Xingmian was stunned. He followed her for a few dozen meters before asking in confusion, "Where are we going? My sister will come find me later."
If Gu Xing proposed to elope, she would definitely refuse firmly.
Family is still very important to her, even though they are family she stole.
"Go to the small computer room in Duxing Building. I called Ruan Xingyue, and she'll be here soon."
"oh."
Ruan Xingmian felt relieved.
Looking up at Gu Xing's sharp silhouette, which looked like it was carved by a knife or an axe, I felt something in my heart.
"Did your teacher scold you for turning in your homework late last night?"
He looked a little depressed.
Gu Xing slowed down his pace, took her right hand and held it in his right hand, put his left hand on her shoulder, and held her in his arms possessively.
"Lu Tian wants to set up his own exclusive team, using Huanyin as a platform to achieve results and gain Chairman Lu's recognition."
Ruan Xingmian understood immediately: "He is looking for you."
Lu Tian completely denied any involvement in the "Dantong" pornographic website.
"He'll show me the contract on Wednesday and ask me to take you to his birthday party."
Ruan Xingmian was furious, and said, "Go ahead. I'll go with you and reject him in person for you."
Gu Xing didn't say anything, but just hugged her tighter.
"Senior Gu."
"Hello, senior."
Occasionally, he would meet a few enthusiastic younger classmates who would greet him, and Gu Xing would nod in response to them one by one.
Ruan Xingmian turned her head slightly to avoid looking at her, glad that she was wearing a mask.
Gu Xing walked around the campus like a big star.
As soon as the two of them arrived at the small computer room, Ruan Xingyue came in angrily wearing high-heeled leather shoes.
He closed the door and threw some fruit snacks to Ruan Xingmian, then immediately took off his shoes and rubbed her sore heels.
The small computer room only has ten computer stations.
Gu Xing stood on the podium and turned on the multimedia computer.
Ruan Xingyue pressed aggressively: "Who of you will explain?"
Ruan Xingmian lowered his head and looked at the braised chicken feet in the snack bag, eager to try something.
Gu Xing knocked on the blackboard: "I'll do it. I made a PPT."
Ruan Xingmian: "Wow."
I quietly set up my phone and started recording the screen.
Ruan Xingyue: “…”
"Mianmian confirmed her pregnancy on September 1st..."
"Damn!" Ruan Xingyue stood up suddenly with her bare feet on the floor.
He scored the winning goal right from the start.
Ruan Xingmian looked up and down, and chose to turn a blind eye.
Gu Xing's expression remained calm as he continued, "On September 6th, we went to the hospital for our first prenatal checkup. It confirmed an intrauterine pregnancy, and the embryo was developing well, with a fetal heartbeat and embryonic buds already present. Since Mi Mi's last menstrual period was on July 1st, the expected date of birth is April 8th of next year. City A's unified college entrance examination is on April 17th, so I've decided to take it the year after."
He opened a new interface: "I've looked at the curriculum for the acting major at the Fashion Institute, and I learned from their official website that the first half of the year is mostly theoretical classes, while the second half is thesis guidance. Acting majors often participate in off-campus practical training, so taking leave is commonplace. To improve employment rates, the school also encourages students in this major to participate in more commercial performances. Therefore, their school has an exception: juniors can apply for a half-time leave of absence, taking online classes at home, and passing the final exam."
Ruan Xingmian rested his head on his arms, his eyes lighting up.
Ruan Xingyue leaned back in her chair, folded her arms and crossed her legs.
His eyes were staring at something unknown, as if he was trying to hold back his emotions with his eyebrows wide open and teeth gritting.
"Regarding next semester's paper guidance, here are the paper topics I listed based on their school's paper data. I'll only guide whichever one Mianmian is interested in."
A twenty-page topic selection with content introduction and pictures.
Research on the inheritance and innovation of traditional clothing culture in modern fashion performances: Analyze the presentation of traditional costumes such as Hanfu and cheongsam in modern catwalk performances, and explore how to combine traditional clothing cultural elements with modern performance concepts.
The application and practical exploration of virtual reality (VR) technology in fashion performances: Analyze how VR technology breaks the spatial limitations of traditional performances, enhances the audience's immersive experience, and explores the problems of technology and art integration faced in practical applications.
Research on the impact of internet celebrity economy on the fashion performance industry: Explore the role of internet celebrities’ participation in fashion performance activities on brand exposure and traffic conversion, and analyze the integration and collision of internet celebrity economy and traditional fashion performance industry.
…
Gu Xing put down the electronic pen and finished speaking.
"Teacher Ruan, the above is the complete report of Mianmian and I."
Ruan Xingyue looked up coldly: "Are you done?"
"Um."
Ruan Xingyue stood up and said, "Get down."
Ruan Xingmian stood up and Gu Xing walked towards her.
The two sat next to each other.
Ruan Xingyue stood on the podium and said condescendingly, "Ruan Xingmian, go sit in the back."
Gu Xing stood up first and sat in the back.
Ruan Xingyue took a deep breath: "I only ask three questions."
She looked at Gu Xing and tried to remain calm: "How much is the betrothal gift? Where is the RV? Who will take care of the baby after it's born?"
"sister……"
"Ruan Xingmian, you are not allowed to speak."
Ruan Xingyue looked directly at Gu Xing and said, "From what I know, your parents divorced when you were two and each started their own family. You've been neglected by your father and mother since childhood. You only have a 70-year-old grandfather who works in the fields, and you're still a graduate student. You have no one behind you. How dare you take care of your parents and your child? How much love can you give to my sister?"
She agreed to their relationship because she felt that Gu Xing had a promising future, and that Gu Xing was a person who valued spiritual resonance, hated superficial relationships, and treated people wholeheartedly.
Different from that beast like Lu Tian.
But that doesn't mean she can tolerate them getting on the bus first and buying the ticket later, and she can't tolerate her sister experiencing childbirth injuries and becoming a haggard woman at the age of 20.
"Ruan Xingmian, you're still a child yourself, can you be a mother?"
Ruan Xingmian's eyes sparkled with tears: "Sister, I've never been a mother, but I've been a child, and I know what kind of mother a child needs."
She stood up and pursed her lips, trying to suppress her emotions: "Sister, I know you are doing this for my own good, but I know what I want, what I can get and what I can endure."
She didn't want to see the two people she cared about most conflict over her.
"Gu Xing, let's go first."
Ruan Xingmian pulled Gu Xing and almost dragged him out of the small computer room.
The lights in the corridor were dim, and Ruan Xingmian's eyes turned red as soon as he stepped out of the classroom.
When her sister said that her father didn't love her and her mother didn't care for her, Ruan Xingmian felt her defenses broken and she felt as uncomfortable as if she were being pricked by a needle.
Her sister probably has never experienced the injustice of being bullied at school and crying in a corner with no one to support her.
Even Gu Xing, a genius graduate student, was still targeted because of his background. He suffered enough from the pain of "neither father nor mother" in his life.
In the end, he died mysteriously in the wilderness, and there was no one to collect his body.
She is the same, without any ties in this world, wandering in a foreign world with no relatives or friends, like a tree without roots.
Calling Ruan Xingyue "sister" makes me secretly happy.
Ruan Xingmian cried uncontrollably in the corridor.
She was quite envious of the original owner.
Even though my father died early and my mother remarried.
Her grandparents and uncle still dote on her and love the original owner unconditionally.
But what did she and Gu Xing do wrong?
Gu Xing held her in his arms and wiped the tears from her cheeks with his hands: "Don't cry, okay."
"Gu Xing, I'm sorry, my sister didn't mean anything else..."
She didn't know whether Gu Xing could understand her stubbornness and the stubbornness she was getting into.
Ruan Xingmian respects her sister very much and has a natural liking for Ruan Xingyue.
If their blood has pheromones, then their pheromones are naturally compatible.
They are related by blood and look similar.
How she wished that was her real sister.
"Don't take my sister's words to heart..."
She was afraid that Gu Xing would be anxious.
Gu Xing registered an Alipay family account on the couple's mobile phone and has been transferring money into it over the past few days.
He stayed up late to take on algorithm outsourcing projects.
Even though I'm so busy every day, I'm still planning to start online courses for postgraduate entrance exams to make money.
"Don't cry anymore."
Gu Xing doesn’t know how to coax people, and keeps repeating “Mianmian, don’t cry anymore.”
I feel sorry for you...
Ruan Xingmian sniffed and felt aggrieved in his heart.
You did nothing wrong.
Your parents don't want you.
You did nothing wrong.
Lu Tian has been plotting against you all your life.
When you didn't know me yet, I felt sorry for you for a long time...
A gentle kiss fell.
Gu Xing put his arms around her waist and back, held her in his arms, and kissed away the tears from the corners of her mouth.
It's salty.
"I don't want them. Don't cry."
He didn't want to see her cry, not even a single tear.
Ruan Xingmian raised her arms and put her arms around his neck.
Actively tilt your head back and kiss for the second time.
Gu Xing closed his eyes and accepted the kiss, with the corners of his mouth slightly raised. Fortunately, he found a way to coax her, and she stopped crying after the kiss.
Ruan Xingmian tried to open his mouth slightly.
Gu Xing opened his eyes, and his pupils darkened.
"Cough..." Ruan Xingyue suddenly appeared and coughed, turning on the lights in the corridor.
She was carrying snacks, fruits, and Ruan Xingmian's shoulder bag.
"Are you done kissing? I have something to say after you kiss me."
Ruan Xingmian was still leaning in Gu Xing's arms, and the two slowly separated.
"I'll keep your pregnancy a secret for now. If there's anything I can do to help, just let me know."
Given their situation, it's hard to say whether they can even talk about marriage for half a year, let alone get married.
Ruan Xingyue never believed that love could defeat material things.
She came down in high heels and handed all the things to Gu Xing.
Without even looking at Ruan Xingmian, he turned around and went downstairs.
