Gu Xi finished washing up and washed her clothes. Wang Xu had not come back yet. The yard was empty. Gu Xi suddenly didn't want to be alone, so she went out to chat with Lin Ling.
It has been a long time since I came. Aunt Chen greeted Gu Xi warmly when she saw her. "Gu Zhiqing, are you here to see Ling Ling? She is still taking a bath. Please come in and sit down first. I made some fermented rice wine and I will cook you a bowl of fermented rice wine eggs."
Gu Xi smiled and thanked: "Thank you, Auntie. I haven't eaten fermented glutinous rice for a long time. Wait a while, and when Lin Ling comes out, you can cook it together to avoid the trouble of making it twice."
"Okay, I'll cook for you later. You can come back later after playing." After saying this, the aunt continued to take care of the vegetables in the yard.
Gu Xi went over to take a look out of curiosity. There were a lot of vegetables planted, including cabbage, carrots, eggplants, and spinach. There are also cucumber vines wrapped around the wooden frame. The vines are of different sizes and hung in a staggered manner. They exude a fresh fragrance and are full of the breath of life.
Lin Ling approached Gu Xi quietly from behind, then patted her shoulder hard, causing Gu Xi to scream.
"Lin Ling! You're scaring me to death!" Gu Xi covered her chest, still in shock. Aunt Chen also covered her mouth and chuckled subtly.
Lin Ling laughed even more: "You are too timid. You are so fascinated by watching the vegetable planting. How about I give you some seeds and you can go back and plant your own vegetables."
Gu Xi glared at her and said, "I'm just staying here temporarily. Don't make it so complicated. It's not my home."
Lin Ling put away her smile and glanced at Gu Xi: "Come, I'll buy you a soda."
Gu Xi sat down on the rattan chair in the yard: "Is this chair Grandma Chen's? She rested so early?"
Lin Ling poured the soda into a cup and handed it over: "No, I went for a walk with Grandma Qin next door after dinner to digest the food. They go out for a walk after dinner every day. Their lives are very regular."
Gu Xi drank soda and looked at the vegetable garden: "It's great that you live here. There is a breath of life everywhere."
Lin Ling: "What's wrong with you? You were fine this afternoon, why are you acting a little weird now? Did you have a fight with Boss Xu? Well, you can move in with me and I promise to take good care of you."
Gu Xi: "We didn't quarrel. What is there for us to quarrel about? We are not familiar with each other. Your room is so messy, who would dare to live with you?"
Lin Ling shrugged: "If you don't want to live here, then don't live here. Why do you despise me? I even asked someone to build a bathroom for you to stay in."
Gu Xi then noticed: "I felt something had changed when I first entered the yard, but I couldn't tell what had changed. When you mentioned it, I realized that a bathroom had been built. It's so efficient. I can move in in a minute if there's a bathroom."
Lin Ling was even more certain that something was wrong with her: "Tell me the truth, what happened between you and Boss Xu? If there was nothing wrong, you would never want to move in even if you were beaten to death. You keep talking about Wang Xu all day long, but you haven't mentioned him since today, and you're even avoiding him. This is too abnormal."
Gu Xi drank the soda from the cup, biting the rim of the cup subconsciously: "I can't really explain it. I know it in my heart, but I just feel a little depressed."
Lin Ling became more and more confused as she listened: "Can you speak human language?"
Gu Xi continued to nibble on the rim of the cup: "I wanted to send some dried meat back home tomorrow, but I found out that he has a childhood sweetheart, and we have a tacit understanding. He flirted with me in front of me and even whispered behind my back. I didn't want to listen at all, so I came back by myself, but I felt very embarrassed. Is it not good for me to stay here any longer?"
Lin Ling almost choked on a mouthful of soda: "Boss Xu has a childhood sweetheart? Who can melt this iceberg? I always thought you were the only one who wasn't afraid of him, then you really can't continue to live here, or his girlfriend will be unhappy."
Gu Xi sighed: "Oh, yes, it was originally a good place to live, but it seems I have to squeeze in with you."
Lin Ling was speechless: "I don't dislike you. I asked you to come and live here, but you dislike me instead."
Aunt Chen just brought over the cooked rice wine and eggs, and heard that Gu Xi was moving in: "Why are you moving in all of a sudden? What's the problem?"
Lin Ling held the bowl and ate while complaining: "Aunt, why didn't you tell me before that Wang Xu has a childhood sweetheart, and Gu Xi can't live with him anymore, it makes him unhappy. The two of them exchanged glances in front of Gu Xi and even whispered behind her back. In my opinion, it's normal. Who would feel better if there were more people in the house?"
Now it was Aunt Chen's turn to be confused: "When did Wang Xu start dating? I don't know, and I haven't heard about it. I see he is closer to Wan Hexing and Yin Jie. He doesn't interact with others and keeps to himself. He looks fierce, so which girl would dare to approach him? I thought he treated Gu Zhiqing differently."
Gu Xi took a sip of the fermented rice wine and felt it was a little sour: "She is Wan Hexing's sister, Wan Xi."
Aunt Chen went from being confused to being shocked: "When did this happen? Wan Xi is so timid that she doesn't even dare to talk to people, but she actually dared to date Wang Xu? Are you sure?"
Lin Ling answered immediately: "How could it be wrong? Gu Xi saw it with her own eyes. Wang Xu and Wan Xi exchanged glances in front of the owner Gu Xi, and Gu Xi couldn't stand it and came back first.
Boss Xu looks fierce, maybe he likes someone like Wan Xi who is timid and introverted, because it can arouse his desire to protect her.之前不是还为了万喜揍了那张跃进呢，原来是为爱挥拳。 So manly. "
Suddenly, a cold male voice came from outside the yard: "Who is fighting for love? She is not my type. Don't say anything that will ruin the girl's reputation."
When they saw that it was Wang Xu standing at the gate, Lin Ling saw that he still refused to admit it: "Gu Xi saw you guys flirting with each other and whispering to each other behind her back, and you actually refused to admit it!"
Wang Xu didn't care what Lin Ling thought, and turned to look at Gu Xi: "Did you see us flirting with each other? Did you say that Wan Xi and I were dating?"
Gu Xi was caught talking behind someone's back, so she just let it go: "I said it, it's good for childhood sweethearts to grow up together, and their eye contact is full of tacit understanding."
Wang Xu was so angry that he laughed. "Wan Xi and I talk less than ten words a year, which is less than what I talk to you in a day. You call this tacit understanding? I say it again, I don't have a partner. Don't ruin my reputation. If you make it difficult for Wan Xi to find a partner, Wan Hexing will beat you up, and I won't stop the fight."
When people feel guilty, they will start to make unfounded excuses: "Even if I don't know you well, at least we live under the same roof temporarily. How could you not care when I got beaten up?
How come you two don't speak to each other more than ten sentences a year, and you were even whispering behind my back just now. I said a lot of sentences. "
Wang Xu looked at Gu Xi without saying anything and was visibly angry. Lin Ling didn't dare to breathe. Aunt Chen had never seen such a scene before and nervously held Lin Ling, fearing that Wang Xu would take action.
When Wang Xu heard Gu Xi say that they were not familiar with each other and insisted on pairing him up with Wan Xi, he felt like a fire was burning in his heart. His face was gloomy, his facial muscles were tense, and he exuded a repressed aura.
Seeing that he was so angry and looking at her fiercely, Gu Xi felt very aggrieved. She stood there opposite Wang Xu with a stubborn and upright attitude, refusing to give in.
