Chapter 191 She is not suitable for you

November passed in a blink of an eye, and it was the anniversary of the death of the old captain Gu Lanting.

Yuan Xiao and Professor Wen had to negotiate for a long time before he agreed to take leave.

The main reason was that he was more relaxed about Yuan Xiao because of Yuan Laixi, a student who was more suitable for research.

He liked Yuan Xiao's lively and lively personality, but he also saw clearly that she was not someone who could concentrate on research.

Although he still kept a tight grip on her in terms of coursework, Professor Wen would no longer press her as long as she could complete it well.

The old captain's hometown was in Guizhou Province, buried deep in the mountains.

Yuan Xiao had never been to Guizhou Province, either in his previous life or in this life. He

just heard from others that there were many mountains there, and the scenery was beautiful.

But there was one thing, it was not as developed as in the city.

Yuan Xiao didn't have deep feelings for the old captain, so he wasn't in such a heavy mood. He just treated this trip as a trip.

When Su Ding saw Yuan Xiao coming over with a suitcase, she almost couldn't keep her expression steady.

Her throat seemed to be blocked, and she spoke after a long time: "Lan Ting, why is Yuan Xiao here?"

Gu Lan Ting smiled, his eyes on Yuan Xiao from beginning to end, "Her birthday is in a few days, I was worried that I would miss it, so I took her with me."

Su Ding forced a smile, "She may not be able to bear the long journey."

"It's okay, I'll take good care of her."

Gu Lan Ting stepped forward and took Yuan Xiao's suitcase, "Get in the car first."

Su Ding didn't know Yuan Xiao was coming at first, she was planning to sit in the passenger seat, so she stood by the passenger door from the beginning.

Hearing what Gu Lanting said, she subconsciously opened the car door.

Yuan Xiao tilted his head and glanced at Gu Lanting.

Seeing that Su Ding was about to get in the car, Gu Lanting quickly said, "Sister Su Ding, you sit in the back."

Su Ding's movements froze, and she could hardly keep a smile on her face.

After hesitating for a long time, she nodded, "Okay, I'll sit in the back."

Yuan Xiao gave Gu Lanting a look, and he did a good job.

Gu Lanting scratched her nose before turning around to open the door for Yuan Xiao.

He didn't close the door and go to the driver's seat until she fastened her seat belt.

It's more than 2,000 kilometers from the capital to Su Ding's hometown, and Gu Lanting reserved three days.

It didn't matter that he was in good health, but he was mainly worried that Yuan Xiao couldn't stand it, so he chose to stop halfway.

In fact, Yuan Xiao really couldn't stand it.

It was still okay in the front.

When they entered Guizhou Province, there were no cement roads in many places, and Yuan Xiao's internal organs were churning due to the bumpy ride.

Gu Lanting saw that Yuan Xiao's face was pale and felt very distressed. It was still some distance from Su Ding's hometown, so he found a guesthouse to stay.

Yuan Xiao felt a little guilty, holding the water cup and looking at him, "How about I stay here, and you and Sister Su Ding go back first?"

Su Ding wanted this to happen, and immediately replied, "Yes, how about we go back first."

Gu Lanting refused, "I'm worried about leaving Yuan Xiao here alone."

He looked at the time, "Rest here for a few hours, and it's still in time to set off again."

Finally, Gu Lanting suggested going to the hospital to buy motion sickness medicine and let the two of them wait there.

Looking at Gu Lanting's leaving back, Su Ding was stunned.

Yuan Xiao had not spoken to her for a few words along the way, and now that he was not feeling well, he naturally didn't want to speak.

"He is really good to you." Su Ding suddenly spoke.

Yuan Xiao hummed and said nothing.

Su Ding laughed, "My hometown is very poor, isn't it?"

Yuan Xiao tilted his head to look at her, "But it's also beautiful."

"It's so poor, no matter how beautiful it is, no one will come to see it."

Yuan Xiao shook his head, "When China develops in the future, everything will be fine."

Su Ding remained silent.

Just when Yuan Xiao thought she didn't intend to continue chatting, she spoke again: "I grew up here."

Her eyes fell on the window, with peaks and endless mountains.

"Do you know why I'm called Su Ding?"

"Why?" Yuan Xiao continued to talk along with her words.

"My father named me when I was still in my mother's belly. He only gave me a boy's name because he only wanted a boy, and I was not born as he expected."

Yuan Xiao was stunned.

She knew this feeling very well.

Because Yuan Man is the same.

"I don't love him. As far as I can remember, the time he spent with me was almost zero. To me, he is just a stranger. But he still did one thing for me..."

Yuan Xiao looked back at her.

Su Ding chuckled, "His death made me know Gu Lanting."

Yuan Xiao was a little dazed for a moment. She

didn't know if she had some thoughts in her mind, or if she was frightened by the madness in Su Ding's eyes.

Yuan Xiao looked away.

She didn't have much contact with Su Ding, and she was always as gentle as water.

Occasionally, when she was angry with her and Gu Lanting, her face would change in an instant, and then they would be at peace again.

This was the first time she had seen such a crazy feeling.

She didn't respond, and Su Ding didn't seem to have the desire to continue.

The two were silent until Gu Lanting came back.

When he returned to the guesthouse, Yuan Xiao was groggy and almost fell asleep.

Gu Lanting had no choice but to wake her up and give her medicine.

Su Ding looked at his gentle movements and turned away bitterly.

Yuan Xiao had almost no ability to think and just followed Gu Lanting's instructions.

After taking the medicine, she lay down again to sleep.

Gu Lanting covered her with a thin blanket, walked out, and closed the door gently.

Not long after, Su Ding stood up and walked out.

"It's a bit stuffy in here, let's go out for a walk."

Gu Lanting nodded and stepped out.

Su Ding jogged a few steps before catching up with him.

She glanced at Gu Lanting's profile.

Even though he was with Yuan Xiao, he would slow down his pace, worried that Yuan Xiao couldn't keep up.

His gentleness seemed to be only for Yuan Xiao.

"I can see that you really like her."

Gu Lanting heard Su Ding's words, but did not deny it, but responded.

He just wanted everyone to know that Yuan Xiao was his.

Su Ding pinched his fingers, looked into the distance, and said in a relaxed tone: "It's hard to imagine that you would find such a girl."

Gu Lanting finally looked at her, "What kind of person is she?"

Yuan Xiao was very good in his eyes, but this was the first time he wanted to hear how others saw Yuan Xiao.

Su Ding smiled and said, "Well... probably, weak?"

Gu Lanting put one hand in his pocket and laughed, "She is not weak, but fierce."

Su Ding looked at him in a trance.

His smile seemed to have light and endless doting, but it was caused by another woman.

"Lanting, you are very strong. Dad said so many years ago."

Perhaps because of the mention of the old captain, Gu Lanting felt a little depressed.

He did not respond, but a sigh silently overflowed from his lips.

"Dad once said that he was worried that you wouldn't be able to get married. In his imagination, your future wife may not be a soldier, but should be someone who can endure hardships..."

"Okay." Gu Lanting interrupted her, "That's just the captain's imagination, not reality. The reality is, I have Yuanxiao, and I love her very much."

"But she's not suitable for you!" Su Ding said hurriedly.

Gu Lanting frowned, "Then what kind of person is suitable for me?"

Su Ding was speechless.

She was screaming in her heart, me! At least I'm more suitable than Yuanxiao!

But she didn't dare to say it, because if she said it, Gu Lanting would no longer regard her as a friend.

Su Ding chuckled, as if the person who was a little bit fierce just now was not her.

"I have no ill intentions, I'm just reminding you kindly. If you don't like it, I won't say it. Yuan Xiao is really good, and I also hope that she can grow old with you. But, you are the person my father values ​​most, and the eldest sister is like a mother, so I can't help but think more about you than others."

Gu Lanting listened and let down some of his guard.

"The captain values ​​Sister Su Ding the most, not me."

Su Ding smiled gently and did not refute.
