Chapter 53: Opening up new territory
He Jing lived the life of a salted fish he had always dreamed of.
Every morning, I sleep until I wake up naturally, and when I wake up, I go to the garden and sit on the swing to bask in the sun.
At noon, Uncle Xu would prepare your favorite lunch, and there would be fruit after lunch.
In the afternoon, I studied federal characters on the small balcony in my bedroom.
After dinner in the evening, I curl up on the sofa in the living room and watch the Starpedia animation.
If Gu Zheng is at home, there will be a figure working on the small balcony directly opposite the swing in the morning.
In the afternoon, the person who delivers fruits and snacks will become Gu Zheng.
At night, two people would curl up on the sofa.
The days were peaceful and comfortable, and the week passed quickly.
Gu Zheng has been a bit busy these two days. He doesn’t eat lunch at home and sometimes can’t make it home for dinner.
The drill is over, and he is very busy checking various information, testing results, analyzing problems, and proposing solutions.
But he would come back every night no matter how late it was.
11:20 p.m.
Gu Zheng came back, Xu Bo opened the door to greet him, and the sound of TV came faintly.
He was stunned for a moment, then asked softly, "Are you still asleep?"
Xu Bo also replied softly: "The young lady fell asleep on the sofa."
Gu Zheng walked over silently. The girl was lying on the sofa in beige home clothes, covered with a small blanket, her fair face looking peaceful.
The explanation of the Starpedia was playing in my ears, and the deep voice was very hypnotic.
The dim lights, the not-too-noisy sound of the TV, and the person waiting on the sofa made this place feel like a real home.
Xu Bo tactfully withdrew.
Gu Zheng watched quietly, his mind gradually becoming dizzy and his heart feeling sore and weak.
He walked over, wrapped the girl in a blanket and carefully picked her up. She was sleeping peacefully in his arms, her cheek pressed against his shirt, breathing shallowly.
He tiptoed up to the third floor, opened the door and walked in.
This was the first time He Jing had entered this room since he moved in.
Gu Zheng knelt on one knee and gently placed the person on the bed. He gently held the ankle with his right hand. The delicate touch made his eyelashes tremble.
Gently take off the slippers and tuck them into the quilt.
Gu Zheng breathed a sigh of relief, covered himself with the quilt, and folded the blanket at the head of the bed.
He Jing rubbed his head against the pillow in a daze and fell asleep.
Gu Zheng stood up and looked around. There were half-eaten snacks on the small coffee table, scattered clothes on the sofa, and the paper and pen used in the afternoon on the rattan chair on the balcony.
Warmth surrounded him from every corner of the room and spread to his heart.
Gu Zheng walked over and closed the balcony door. Without stopping, he gently closed the door and left.
He returned to the room, took a shower, and sat down on the balcony. The sky was full of stars, and he felt that they looked like He Jing's eyes, watery and sparkling.
She seemed to be on the swing downstairs.
A breeze blew, and every tulip trembled, including the one in his heart.
-----------------
He Jing woke up in the morning and looked at the ceiling with a confused face. Was she dreaming? Wasn't she waiting for Gu Zheng in the living room last night?
How come I'm in my own bedroom when I open my eyes...
Not awake yet?
She pinched her face, ah, woke up <@_@>
Was it Xu Bo who sent me back? Or was it Gu Zheng...?
He Jing stopped brushing his teeth.
I blinked and my mind came back to normal.
It's not impossible. After all, Gu Zheng is not really as cold as he looks.
He Jing packed up and went downstairs, and actually saw Gu Zheng in the living room.
"Good morning, Gu Zheng! Did you take me home last night?"
"Well, don't wait for me in the future. Go back to your room and get some rest."
Gu Zheng's voice was cold, and at first one might think he was unhappy about what happened last night.
Xu Bo was a little anxious on the side, "Miss, don't misunderstand, the young master is worried about you! This is the first time I've seen the young master carry a girl back to the room!"
This sounded strange, and He Jing felt a little hot in his ears for some reason.
Gu Zheng glanced at him and said, "It's okay, just kill some viruses."
He Jing couldn't help laughing. He hadn't misunderstood anything at first, and now he found it even more funny.
"Auntie must have read a lot of online literature."
Gu Zheng chuckled, waved his hand, and asked He Jing to sit down.
"?"
"Aunt Jiang and Zhou Bai will come over around 3pm."
"Hmm? Okay~"
"Gao Songyang and his brother will come over tomorrow at noon."
"Okay, I'll get up early tomorrow."
Gu Zheng nodded and pushed the juice next to him, "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
He Jing held the cup and thought for a moment, "The fish stew from the day before yesterday?"
"good."
"I still have some tea leaves. I'll make some for them this afternoon."
"Haven't you been to the Sunshine Garden yet?"
"No."
"Let's go and take a look together."
Gu Zheng discovered that He Jing would only have the idea of "expanding" outward under extreme circumstances, such as in the training ground.
Once you enter a comfort zone, you will only stay in a fixed place.
He didn't even glance away.
The living room, the dining room, and the garden are all there, so she only spends time in these places every day.
He Jing followed behind him to the small attic, and what he saw was large patches of sunlight!
The all-glass walls and open windows reflect the light in a variety of colors.
The breeze blows gently, bringing with it the rich fragrance of flowers.
There are flower stands all around, and each stand has different flowers, tulips, freesias, double lilies...
There were also some that she didn’t recognize, with clusters of flowers, so beautiful in the sun!
"What kind of flower is this?" He Jing asked, pointing to a cluster of blue-purple flowers.
The green rhizomes and leaves grow straight, and on top is a bunch of small grape-like flowers.
"Grape hyacinth." The flower language is sad and melancholy love, but Gu Zheng doesn't want to say it.
He Jing stared at it with bright eyes and admired it softly.
There was also a bunch of purple flowers on the shelf next to it. "What about this?"
"The flower language of the giant swallowtail is lightness, beauty, and nature."
"It fits~"
Gu Zheng began to introduce them one by one: orchids, wind chimes, snapdragons...
He Jing stopped in front of a pot of orchids and asked, "Is this an orchid?"
"Yes, gladiolus, the flower language is love, fortune, and success."
The He Jing stayed in front of it for a long time. Its slender branches and leaves had its own charm and style, and its white and purple flowers were lively.
Seeing her interest, Gu Zheng continued to introduce: "It is very easy to take care of, and the flowering period is also very long. It looks skinny and small now, but it will be completely different when it blooms."
"After a while, when it fully grows, the branches will become stiff, and the flowers will bloom larger. It will become dignified, elegant, and more sharp."
"Its flowers bloom from the bottom up, so it symbolizes continuous advancement and rising higher and higher, which is very suitable for you."
…
The two of them stayed together, chatting until lunch time.
When the two came out, He Jing was holding a pot of purple and white gladiolus in his hand.
Gu Zheng accompanied her to put the flowers back into the bedroom, and then went to the restaurant to eat together.
He Jing was in a good mood, his eyes were always curved, and he drank half a bowl of seafood soup more than usual. ヾ(≧▽≦)ゝ
Gu Zheng sat on the side and helped her pick up food from time to time, and they were all having a great time.
Uncle Xu was also very happy watching from the side, and couldn't help but sigh: "Seeing the young master so happy, I feel relieved. Uncle Xu, I haven't seen the young master smile for a long time!"
Gu Zheng's expression froze: ...
He Jing pursed his lips and suppressed a smile: ...
