Chapter 180 Returning Home
Yuan Xiao had been away for half a year, and she still missed Qushui County from time to time.
She grew up here, developed here, and contributed a lot to this place. She couldn't wait to know if her hometown had become better.
Yuan Xiao and Gu Lanting went to the welfare home first.
There were no more begging children at the door of the department store, and all the children without parents were in this welfare home.
Every child was registered, and if someone wanted to adopt, the director would assess the adoptive family. Only if they passed the assessment could they adopt according to the legal procedures.
Yuan Xiao did not go in, but heard the sound of children playing inside from a distance, and unconsciously raised the corners of her lips.
Gu Lanting stroked the back of her hand and smiled, "Xiaoxiao did a great job."
Yuanxiao smiled and raised his head, looking very proud, "I'm the best!"
The library of No. 3 Middle School has also been completed, and only books are needed to be purchased.
Purchasing books is also a big project. What books to purchase, what types, and how many to purchase all need to be planned carefully.
Yuanxiao is only responsible for paying the money, and these are not within her consideration.
But she has to admit that the library of No. 3 Middle School is better planned than she thought.
The security guard at the door is an old man who has worked in No. 3 Middle School for many years. Recently, he has been bragging to others about how good Yuanxiao is.
He recognized Yuanxiao and ran to the office to pass on the news that our county's top science student is back!
Yuan Xiao was a little amused when he saw Principal Qin coming out with many teachers. He wanted to sneak away.
"Yuan Xiao, you are so mean. You came back to your alma mater without even saying hello!"
Yuan Xiao smiled helplessly, "I thought everyone was on vacation."
"The second batch of college entrance examinations just ended in June, and we will have a vacation in July. We are now preparing for the entrance examination."
Yuan Xiao was a little surprised, "So early?"
Principal Qin was a little proud, "You don't know how many students have applied for our No. 3 Middle School now. The entrance examination is a big project now!"
The notes compiled by Yuan Xiao were really useful. He copied them into a book and gave a set to each student who enrolled.
Although the results of No. 3 Middle School this year are not as amazing as last year, they are definitely the best in Qushui County.
The group chatted for a few words, and Yuan Xiao was about to leave.
Principal Qin wanted to keep her for dinner, but Yuan Xiao declined.
However, he mentioned the library, hoping that the purchase of books could be more cautious.
After Yuan Xiao left, Principal Qin was still sighing, "It's a pity that those bastards are on vacation, otherwise they would have to see the elegance of the senior sister."
Yuan Xiao was a little tired, so he and Gu Lanting found a place to eat, and then went back to the guesthouse to rest.
Originally, one bed for each person was just right, but Yuan Xiao felt a little awkward.
She and Gu Lanting were already close, but not close enough to sleep in the same room.
Yuan Xiao rolled over on the bed. The sun was about to set outside, and the soft sunset shone on the bed.
"Do you want to... take a shower first?"
Gu Lanting smiled, "Okay, I'll take a shower first."
He was used to it in the army, and he raced against time in everything he did.
He went in with the clothes, and soon came out with steam.
Yuan Xiao's eyes widened. His upper body was bare-chested, and there were water drops on the ends of his hair.
Gu Lanting was not white, but had a very even bronze color, with vigorous and powerful muscles, and scars all over his body.
Yuan Xiao screamed briefly and covered his eyes.
Her face flushed, her heart was pounding, and she felt like it was jumping up to her throat.
"Why aren't you wearing clothes!"
Yuan Xiao is still a northern girl, but her voice is soft, and she always likes to have an "ah-ah-ah" ending tone, which makes people itchy.
Gu Lanting wiped his hair with a towel, and did not put on clothes immediately. Instead, he walked over to tease her.
"I'll have to see it from now on, I don't mind."
Yuan Xiao snorted, "Hurry up and put on your clothes."
Gu Lanting was silent for a moment, "Put it on."
Yuan Xiao slowly took down her hand and opened her eyes, and saw Gu Lanting's face close to her, and she could still sense his breathing.
Looking down, he was still shirtless.
Yuan Xiao pouted, "I told you to put on your clothes, otherwise I won't talk to you."
Gu Lanting kissed her red lips lightly, got up helplessly, and put on his clothes.
Yuan Xiao jumped up from the bed, took out pajamas from the bag, "I'm going to take a shower too."
Yuan Xiao had a lot of hair, and she struggled for a long time in the bathroom about whether to wash her hair.
In the end, she couldn't help it and washed it.
But she felt a little regretful after washing it. She had a lot of hair, black and shiny, like satin.
It looks good, but it's not easy to dry.
She came out in her pajamas and wrapped her hair on top of her head with both hands.
Gu Lanting's breathing suddenly became rapid, and he turned his face away, "Are you not wearing any underwear?"
Although Yuan Xiao is petite, she has plenty of flesh where it should be plump.
When she heard Gu Lanting's words, her face flushed, and when she looked down, she saw that the clothes on her chest were wet.
"Gu Lanting, you are a hooligan!"
She ran into the bathroom quickly.
But after entering the bathroom, she started to feel tangled again.
It is so uncomfortable to wear underwear to sleep.
She had to wrap her hair with a towel and changed into a dry pajamas.
After all, Yuan Xiao lived in the future and had a more open mind.
The pajamas she wore in summer were all short-sleeved shirts and shorts, with two white and tender thighs exposed.
Gu Lanting didn't notice it just now, but now that she came out again, he noticed it.
His face darkened, "What are you wearing? Go change!"
Yuan Xiao ignored him, "I don't want to, it's more comfortable to sleep like this, you were shirtless just now!"
Gu Lanting tried to persuade her a few times but she didn't listen, so he stopped talking and refused to go out anyway.
He pulled her over, and her small body almost shrank in his arms.
Gu Lanting untied her hair and took a dry towel to wipe her hair again.
His hair should have learned that sometimes he pressed on certain acupuncture points neither too hard nor too lightly, which made Yuanxiao so comfortable that she uttered a warning.
Gu Lanting was in a difficult situation, with the soft and fragrant body in his arms, he could only hold her but not eat her. Maybe he
was really tired, Yuanxiao found a comfortable position in Gu Lanting's arms, and fell asleep unknowingly, and he could still hear her even breathing.
Gu Lanting was afraid that she would have a headache the next day if she lay down like this, so he held her in his arms and slowly wiped her hair.
He wiped her hair for two hours, and only when her hair was barely dry did he put her on the bed.
