kiss you while drunk

Gu Ruo had a severe cold, and his mind was dizzy. After eating, Jiang Xinran hugged him again, and soon fell into a deep sleep.

Although Jiang Xinran took off his clothes and lay on the bed with her, all he could think about was the set of experimental data that had problems in the morning, so he couldn't fall asleep.

A set of data is wrong. This problem is neither big nor small. If it is discovered, it will definitely be held accountable. However, if it is muddled, it will not have a big impact on the overall progress.The amount of data required in the compound screening process is very large, and a set of data errors can easily be covered up.

Just as Jiang Xinran was thinking, the phone next to his head vibrated suddenly.

Jiang Xinran's nerves were tense, and he quickly pressed the hang up button without seeing the caller ID clearly, and then quickly turned to look at Gu Ruo.

Fortunately, Gu Ruo showed no signs of waking up, and was still sleeping peacefully.

Jiang Xinran relaxed, reached out and touched her forehead again.

The temperature is already normal.

Jiang Xinran let out a long sigh, carefully lifted the quilt out of bed, walked to the balcony, closed the glass door, and then took out the phone and called up the call records.

Seeing that phone number, Jiang Xinran frowned, and his heart sank instantly.

It was her mother, Jiang Peilan.

What's the matter?

Jiang Xinran became irritable and refused to call back.

Less than half a minute later, the number called again.

Jiang Xinran hesitated for a long time, took a deep breath, tried to calm down, and then connected, holding the phone to his ear.

"Xinran, it's winter vacation, why don't you come home?"

Jiang Xinran ignored her greetings and asked directly: "What's the matter?"

"No... it's almost Chinese New Year, your dad... your Uncle Wu asked you, will you come back for the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve?"

Jiang Xinran said coldly: "No."

She refused simply and neatly, and kept Jiang Peilan's remaining words in her mouth, faltering for a long time, unable to open her mouth.

"...Okay, I know you're going to graduate next year. You must be busy this year. If you don't come back, don't come back. Mom will help you explain it to Uncle Wu. He won't blame you..."

Jiang Xinran sneered in his heart.

She just graduated the next year.

Jiang Peilan could even remember the time of her graduation wrongly, so she really didn't know how she had the nerve to come here to make friends.

Just as she was thinking about it, Jiang Peilan said again: "Xinran, Mom hasn't celebrated the New Year with you for several years. You don't want to come back and you are alone outside. Mom always feels very uncomfortable when she thinks about it..." Jiang Peilan's The voice sounded choked up at one point, "It's all my mother's inability to create a good family environment for my precious daughter..."

Jiang Xinran was only annoyed by her noise, "Mom, I'll hang up if you're okay, I'm busy."

"Something's up!" Jiang Peilan screamed, pulling Jiang Xinran back.

"Say."

"Mom just wanted to ask you... are you free on the 29th of the twelfth lunar month? On the 29th, I have to prepare a New Year's Eve dinner for the whole family. Let's get together first, Mom hasn't celebrated the New Year with my good daughter for a long time, I miss you..."

The old woman over there who was nearly sixty years old sighed, making Jiang Xinran's nose suddenly sour.

Since his father passed away and his mother remarried, Jiang Xinran has not enjoyed the warmth of a mother's love for almost 20 years.

At the age when other children were rolling in their parents' arms, Jiang Xinran had already learned to lean on her little shoulders to comfort the woman who had just experienced the pain of losing her husband.In the days when other children don’t have to worry about anything except going to school and doing homework, Jiang Xinran has to worry about what to do if there is no rice for the pot tomorrow. Her devastated mother ate until late at night to have time to do her homework.

When Jiang Peilan's mental state finally got better and a smile appeared on her face day by day, when Jiang Xinran thought her mother had finally returned, what she was waiting for was the news of her second marriage.

And it was not until a long time later that Jiang Xinran found out that Jiang Peilan was already pregnant when she held the banquet for her second marriage, and she gave birth to Jiang Xinran's half-brother less than eight months after the banquet.

Jiang Xinran will never forget the happiness and joy on Jiang Peilan's face when she was discharged from the hospital with that newborn in her arms, and she will never forget that Jiang Peilan hugged and coaxed her baby son day and night with her eyes full of eyes only.

Jiang Xinran's eyes were sore with envy, she waited and waited, and finally when it was time for the baby to sleep, she sneaked into Jiang Peilan's room while no one was paying attention, and said, "Mom, I miss you so much."

She wanted to ask her mother to hug her too, but Jiang Peilan frowned and scolded her viciously, "Who let you in? What if you pass the bacteria on your body to your younger brother and make him sick?" !?"

At that time, Jiang Xinran was still young and had strong self-esteem. She was reprimanded by her mother and blushed, shrank her neck in shame, and was kicked out of Jiang Peilan's room. When she returned to her bedroom, she sat blankly for a while before shed tears.

From that day on, Jiang Xinran knew that from then on, he had no mother and no home.

Later, when the baby was full moon and held a full moon wine, Jiang Peilan held the baby beamingly and told Jiang Xinran, "Xinran, come and see your brother. My mother almost died to give birth to him. He is the baby of our family. It is the hope of our family, you will be the big sister in the future, you must protect him well, let him go, and never let him be wronged, you know?"

Jiang Xinran thought sourly, what should I do if I am wronged?

This cheap little brother, Jiang Peilan, wants to give birth by herself, and after giving birth, she will pamper her like a baby, and even try to brainwash Jiang Xinran to make her dedicate everything to him.

At that time, Jiang Xinran was too young, didn't know how to turn around, spoke too straightforwardly, and said all his thoughts, "He is not my brother, and I didn't let you have him, so I don't recognize him!"

Shocked and astonished, Jiang Peilan slapped Jiang Xinran in front of all the guests.

Jiang Xinran was stunned, with tears in his eyes, but he didn't know how to cry.

Jiang Peilan's slap interrupted all Jiang Xinran's unrealistic expectations of maternal love.

That is to say, who can really not look forward to family affection?

It's just that I know I can't get it, so I force myself not to have hope.

So when Jiang Peilan said that she wanted to get together with her and spend a new year together with her mother and daughter, Jiang Xinran's heart was full, and she agreed without hesitation.

Jiang Peilan on the other end was overjoyed, told her the time and place, and before hanging up the phone, she reminded her, "Mom is waiting for you, you must come..."

"understood."

Jiang Xinran hung up the phone, and a pair of arms circled up behind him.

Her shoulders tightened, she turned her head, her expression relaxed, and she laughed secretly at herself.

Who else is there besides Gu Ruo?There's no need to be so nervous, it's not like before...

Thinking about it, his eyes sank slightly.

"When did you wake up?" Jiang Xinran turned around and pushed Gu Ruo into the room, "You haven't recovered from your illness yet, don't blow the cold wind on the balcony, don't you think you didn't burn hard enough?"

"You weren't there when I woke up, I thought..." Gu Ruo put her arms around Jiang Xinran's waist, rested her chin on her shoulder, and lowered her voice as she spoke.

When she opened her eyes on the bed, she didn't see Jiang Xinran for the first time, her heart skipped a beat, and when she touched the bedding next to her, it was already completely cold, and her heart was also cold, only when Jiang Xinran left, her heart twitched heavily Suddenly, he quickly got up from the bed.

It wasn't until she opened the door and heard the voice from the balcony that her throat seemed to relax a bit and she was able to breathe freely.

At the same time, the pain in the heart was even worse.

I just misunderstood that Jiang Xinran left without saying goodbye, and I was already so sad. When I really left without saying goodbye, how painful should Jiang Xinran be?

Gu Ruo didn't dare to think deeply.

She was afraid that she would be so guilty that she would never dare to appear in front of Jiang Xinran again.

Hurt is hurt, and all regrets become ridiculous nonsense and useless.

"What do you think? You think I'm gone? Do you think I'm as heartless as you?" Jiang Xinran sneered with eyes hanging from his nose.

It's okay if you don't mention it, but once you mention it, Jiang Xinran doesn't make a fuss. The soft sympathy for Gu Ruo in his heart disappeared in an instant, leaving only the piercing hatred. He pushed Gu Ruo away and hugged himself. Sitting on the sofa with his chest in his chest, his face was livid.

Gu Ruo knew that she had made a slip of the tongue, touched her nose, coughed twice, followed Jiang Xinran disheartenedly, sat down beside her, and changed the subject: "Ranran, who were you talking to just now?"

Jiang Xinran raised his eyelids halfway, glanced at her, and said expressionlessly, "My mother."

Hearing these two words, Gu Ruo's face changed, and his eyes narrowed: "What did she tell you?"

Jiang Xinran told Gu Ruo about her own life experience, and Gu Ruo also knew Jiang Xinran's family situation. Apart from feeling sorry for Jiang Xinran, she hated Jiang Xinran's irresponsible mother and had no affection at all.

"He said he wanted to celebrate the new year with me earlier." Jiang Xinran replied.

When the subject changed, her face softened.

"You agreed?" Gu Ruo's expression froze.

"Yeah." Jiang Xinran said.

"Do you want me to accompany you?" Gu Ruo asked.

Jiang Xinran laughed: "I'm meeting my mother, what are you going to do?"

Gu Ruo had a serious expression, "I'm afraid she's plotting against you."

Jiang Xinran almost couldn't laugh out loud, "Gu Ruo, are you in a coma? That's my mother, what plans can she have for me?"

Gu Ruo didn't want to spoil Jiang Xinran's interest, so he didn't say anything.

She understood Jiang Xinran's thoughts, although she always said she hated Jiang Peilan, but if Jiang Peilan could really treat her better, she would be like a child who got sugar again, and she would be very happy.

This stems from her memory of Jiang Peilan's mother's love when she was young, and her instinct to yearn for family affection.

Gu Ruo couldn't bear to poke it.

"By the way." When the words came to this point, Jiang Xinran remembered, "Gu Ruo, I don't seem to have heard you talk about your parents."

Gu Ruo's expression froze, and he said lightly, "There's nothing to say."

"Tell me." Jiang Xinran became curious, "Your surname is Gu, and you are the boss of the Gu family, so your father is the boss of the Gu family, right?"

Jiang Xinran checked Gu's information in his free time. The current chairman and CEO of the head office is Gu Heyuan. Jiang Xinran also searched for his photo, which is indeed somewhat similar to Gu Ruo.

It stands to reason that if such a famous figure is a father, Gu Ruo should be a top-notch Bai Fumei and a super rich second generation in the eyes of the general public, but based on Jiang Xinran's understanding of Gu Ruo in high school, her food and clothing, including her speech and behavior, are not good. She looks like a young lady who has come out of a high society and has received good etiquette training. On the contrary, her personality reveals a fierceness to fight for her. She is like a child raised by wolves.

Gu Ruo lowered her eyes and looked at the curiosity in Jiang Xinran's eyes. The atmosphere was right now, and she didn't want to spoil it, so she had to pick something unimportant and say, "My father is indeed Gu Heyuan."

Jiang Xinran got excited about eating melons, and asked with bright eyes: "But isn't Gu Heyuan in country Y? How did you grow up in Linyuan?"

"Gu Heyuan has many children in his life, and they can be found all over the world, not just in Linyuan."

"Ah... Then it seems that he is really not a good father, nor a good husband." Jiang Xinran asked again: "What about your mother?"

Hearing this, Gu Ruo's expression became even paler, his eyes seemed to be covered with ice, "Dead."

She uttered these two words in a gentle manner, without any remembrance or sadness.

Jiang Xinran didn't expect to hear this news. He was stunned for a while, feeling guilty, and lowered his head to apologize: "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have asked."

Gu Ruo saw that she made a mistake, lowered her head, showing her slender neck, she looked very cute.

Seeing people's thoughts flickering, a restlessness in the chest rushed to the throat.

Gu Ruo smiled, brushed her palm up, and rubbed it back and forth on the back of her neck, "It's okay, she never raised me, and I'm not sad about her death, I'm just talking about a stranger."

Jiang Xinran's ears twitched, and his heart was suddenly filled with happiness. He raised his head and asked her, "Gu Ruo, did your departure have something to do with your parents?"
