Chapter 128 Misplaced Heartbeat
He Jing was absent-minded for the next few days, and Gu Zheng was busy with military affairs and rarely at home. The rare time they spent together was at the dinner table.
Gu Yu's eyes moved back and forth between the two of them, but He Jing was concentrating on eating and didn't dare to look up at all.
Guilty, really guilty...
He took care of me wholeheartedly and treated me well, but I actually had feelings for him! !
Aaaaahhh!!
Tempting beauty!!
Gu Zheng's gaze fell on the fluffy head, then paused and found a hint of red in the hair.
He rubbed his fingers on his knees, but ultimately did not touch them.
what happened?
Gu Zheng thought silently, these days girls are like frightened rabbits, hiding when they see him.
Who said what?
Si Lan? No, she's in charge of external affairs now and can't come to Courtyard 1 unless summoned.
Who else could it be...
Gu Zheng glanced at everyone present but was unable to come to a conclusion.
The dining table was quiet. He Jing swallowed the last mouthful of soup and stood up calmly. The gazes on her side were burning, and her head seemed to be fixed, determined not to turn at all.
"I'm done eating! I'll go upstairs first. Oh, I'm so sleepy..."
The cat covered its mouth, gave a fake yawn, and ran away.
It went very smoothly. The door was right in front of him. Just as He Jing opened it a little, a hand reached out from behind and pushed the door shut again.
"What's wrong? Are you avoiding me?"
He Jing's ears felt numb and his heart was pounding!
He Jing buried his head like an ostrich, scratching the door handle with his fingers.
“No…”
"Then why don't you look back at me?"
The heartbeat became louder and louder, and the strong and powerful beating made He Jing dizzy.
The kitten turned around silently, its round head seemed to be steaming.
Could it be a fever?
Gu Zheng frowned slightly and raised his hand to lift the kitten's face.
It's getting hotter.
"Take your temperature later."
“…”
"No, it's okay..."
"No, it's a little hot."
“…” When people are speechless, their hearts become very calm.
He Jing sat on the sofa and was examined by Xu Bo. The results showed that everything was normal.
Gu Zheng's heart skipped a beat when he saw the result.
The bedroom was silent, and Xu Bo pulled Xiao Wu out at the right time.
"you……"
"I……"
They both spoke at the same time and stopped at the same time.
Gu Zheng unconsciously brushed his nose and said, "I'm glad you're okay."
"Um……"
"Will you be bored at home? Let's go out and play tomorrow?"
"The playground before?"
"Not going there." Gu Zheng had a bad impression of the place. "It's a garden in the mountains, a primeval forest under the jurisdiction of the military. In this season, you can see a sea of flowers in the valley, and there are waterfalls."
He Jing thought about it, and the forest cat in him started to stir. "Okay, I'll just take Xiaoyu out for a walk."
"By the way, Xiaoyu is 16 years old this year?"
Gu Zheng nodded, "Well, there is another reason why my aunt sent her here this time."
"What?"
He Jing was surprised. She thought he was just letting it out to get some fresh air.
"Xiaoyu's transformation period will be advanced."
"So early?"
"Well, there have been several transformation accidents in the Central Transformation Center over the years. My aunt was worried, so she sent him here."
He Jing suddenly had an idea, "The blue-haired one?"
Gu Zheng reacted for a moment, a smile in his voice: "You mean Shi Jiu? Mr. Shi is an expert in transformation and a leader of the younger generation."
"Huh? Then how did he become the family's bodyguard?"
"He's not really a bodyguard. He was kicked out due to internal strife at the Central Transformation Center. My aunt accidentally saved him, and he's stayed at the Gu family to take care of Xiaoyu's condition. This time, he came here to train in advance because he wanted to follow us. He can be considered a public identity."
So that's why. No wonder his temperament looks different.
“When is the transformation period?”
"The current estimate is May 27th."
"In the training ground?"
"Yes, the formalities have been completed. Xiaoyu's situation is special, so Shijiu will accompany her in."
He Jing nodded, and the two of them stopped talking.
"Are you feeling down these past two days?"
Gu Zheng's cold voice sounded, and if you listened carefully, you could hear a hint of uneasiness.
But He Jing felt guilty and didn't hear anything. "No, maybe I've been playing too many games lately."
This is true. Since coming to Kelan Star, He Jing was afraid that Xiaoyu would be bored, so he took her to play various games every day, and she played all the games in the game world.
"You don't have to pay too much attention to Xiaoyu."
He Jing was stunned, and without Gu Zheng saying anything, he instantly understood what he meant.
Xiaoyu never needs special treatment, but excessive attention will make her tired and uncomfortable, but she won't say it.
He Jing's mind suddenly became clear and he felt relieved.
Seeing that she had figured it out, Gu Zheng chuckled and finally rubbed her round, fluffy head.
"Have a good rest tonight, and I won't be back tomorrow."
He Jing's eyes lit up, and her whole body was bright and beautiful: "Camping?!"
"Well, Xu Bo has prepared everything. If you need anything, please add more."
"Okay~"
Gu Zheng sat for a while and then returned to the military headquarters. He Jing ran to the garden downstairs with his own nap plan.
The wind in May is the gentlest. He Jing lazily enjoyed the breeze and slept soundly in the swing.
Gu Yu lay on the balcony upstairs and watched for a while, then he breathed a sigh of relief and retracted his neck.
"For a long time."
"Hmm? What's wrong?"
"study."
Shi Jiu chuckled and took the small schoolbag that he had never had the chance to open since he arrived.
"The books in the bag are neatly stacked, without any creases."
Gu Yu stretched out her little hand to take it, carefully took out a book from it, spread it flat on the table and began to read.
The pages are clean and there is no writing on them.
The room was quiet, with only the occasional sound of turning pages.
Shi Jiu sat quietly by the side. This was the most familiar scene to him in the past two years.
The sunlight came from the front at an angle, stretching the girl's shadow very long.
It was not until dinner time that Gu Yu closed the textbook. She did not say a word the whole time, and no one knew whether she really understood it.
The next day, He Jing got up early and helped Uncle Xu move the bags of things onto the spaceship.
"This box contains the small cakes that Uncle Xu just made. They're all made with fresh fruit. We need to eat them tonight!"
"Okay, Uncle Xu!"
"Here are some of your favorite dishes. If you can't finish them, put them here."
"Okay~"
"this……"
"Uncle Xu, why don't you come with us?" He Jing's eyes were shining, and a tuft of hair on his head was swaying like an antenna.
The robot's eyes flickered, from smiling eyes to starry eyes and then to crying eyes.
"No, Uncle Xu has to stay and look after the house... Woohoo, Uncle Xu hasn't been here for a long time..." Seeing the young master go out to play so happily.
Gu Zheng walked over, took the thing from He Jing's hand with one hand, and covered the robot's mouth with the other hand.
"Okay, let's go."
The group set out, and the closer they got to the mountain gardens, the fewer people they met.
After passing three checkpoints, we finally arrived.
The invisible door slowly opened, and a solemn and dignified atmosphere filled the air.
Gu Yu leaned against the glass, staring intently.
