Bamboo Horse Cultivation Manual [Rebirth]
Chapter 74 Chapter 74
It is well known that Ye Li treats his family very well.
He is filial to his mother, respects the elderly, and is as close as a brother to Qiu Mu, who is not related by blood.
He will pay attention to Qiu Mu's eating habits, and will spend his time studying the tastes that the other party likes.He took care of Qiu Mu meticulously in his behavior, and he could always easily guess what the other party needed, and then provide help in time.
It's like a chronic drug that is ubiquitous and permeates around the body. Once you enjoy the care of the other party and become obsessed with the feeling of being pampered, the feeling of losing it will be like gouge out the heart and pain.
Qiu Mu likes being special when Ye Li pays attention to him, but when he thinks that his care and consideration are all because of their friendship, Qiu Mu will become disappointed again.
The actions that were so familiar and natural as breathing now seem like sweet traps one after another. Every time Ye Li helps her, her heart sinks deeper. "Maybe you can try to treat him as a friend again." There is no way to realize such an idea.
Ye Li's existence was like an invisible wall lingering around his body, he couldn't get away from it, couldn't break free, only when he came back to his senses did he realize that he had been trapped in the middle of the wall for many years, and he was used to the life surrounded by him.
Sitting on the chair, watching Ye Li busy packing his luggage.Qiu Mu sat cross-legged on the chair, with her palms supporting her thighs, and said to Ye Li, "Before going to the airport later, let's take a detour and go to Jixiang's to buy steamed buns, okay?"
Ye Li folded the clothes skillfully and quickly, and replied: "Okay."
I lived in Shanghai for a while, and saw half of it during my summer vacation.In a few days, it will be the time for the city-level physical examination in the "Five Events", and they will return to Guangling to prepare for the exam before then.
Qiu Mu looked at the picture of Ye Li working hard, and said, "I'll do it myself."
Ye Li: "It's okay, I've already sorted it out."
Qiu Mu looked at him with a smile, and let Ye Li help him without saying a word.
Then when Ye Li reached out to pick up the clothes in the cubicle, Qiu Mu's expression changed, and he jumped off the chair: "Wait, I'll do it myself!"
Ye Li: "I took it all."
After packing the underwear in a separate bag, Ye Li turned to him and said, "It's finished—do you have anything else to bring?"
"..." Qiu Mu spoke very slowly: "Speaking of which, it seems that you did all these things for me before."
Ye Li didn't care about these details: "Well, it seems to be."
"..." Qiu Mu looked at Ye Li's indifferent expression and was speechless.
That's right, straight men like Ye Li shouldn't pay attention to this kind of thing.
After all, even Aunt Huang, who is of the opposite sex, would help put their underwear in when collecting clothes.
Although it's the owner who always confuses clothes.
Thinking of this, Qiu Mu stopped being entangled, and said to Ye Li: "I have nothing to bring, all of them are here."
Ye Li nodded and closed the suitcase.
"Let's go, Auntie is already waiting for us outside."
After bidding farewell to the old man and Xiaoping, the two got into Qiu Mu's mother's car.
The familiar words of complaining about why Qiu Mu couldn't stay for a few more days rang in his ears again. Qiu Mu chatted with his mother gagly, and said a few words to make her mother laugh, and the atmosphere was very happy for a while.
Ye Li likes Qiu Mu's mother, who is decisive in speaking and doing things, full of elite aura in the shopping mall, so every time they meet, she will take the initiative to chat with her, and her attitude is also very respectful.
Qiu Mu's mother knew that Qiu Mu and Ye Li had always had a good relationship, and because of Ye Li, Qiu Mu left Shanghai, where her family lived, and stayed in Guangling to study alone.So there is a lot of attention paid to Ye Li.
It just so happens that Ye Li's character suits Qiu Mu's mother, and he knows how to please her when he talks and does things. He is also very smart with a flexible mind, and he doesn't know where he is compared to other children.The combination of various factors made Ye Li have a particularly high evaluation in front of Qiu Mu's mother.
So sometimes even if Qiu Mu is not present, the two of them can get along well and chat happily.
Qiu Mu's mother joked, "Why don't Xiao Li come to work in our company after you graduate from university? The two brothers work together, and there is someone who can talk to each other and give each other ideas."
Ye Li glanced at Qiu Mu out of the corner of his eye, and Qiu Mu shook his head calmly, signaling Ye Li not to say something, Ye Li cooperated tacitly, and said, "Okay, as long as Xiao Mu doesn't dislike me."
The woman "giggled" and laughed: "How could it be disgusting."
Qiu Mu probably wished to tie Ye Li by his side, so as not to let others snatch him away.
In the early years, due to policy reasons, she and her husband had only one child.Later, the work became more and more busy, and I didn't have the energy to think about having another one.Sometimes I worry that the adults are so busy, whether Qiu Mu, the only child, will feel lonely, and if the two adults are gone in the future, will he not even have anyone to help him.
But when Ye Li appeared, they were relieved.
If it was Ye Li, he would definitely be able to take good care of Qiu Mu for them.
Half an hour later, Qiu Mu was standing on the side with a small steamed bun in her hand, eating contentedly. Qiu Mu's mother and Ye Li left the trunk to pick up their luggage, and she handed the two nutritional products to Ye Li.
"This is for sister Qi."
Sister Qi is Ye Li's mother, surnamed Qi, younger than Qiu Mu's mother, so she just called her that.
A long time ago, when the old man had high blood pressure and fell down the stairs, she stayed in Guangling for a while.At that time, she bought a car in Guangling for the convenience of moving.One day, when Qiu Mu and Ye Li were planning to visit Ye Li's mother in the nursing home, she said that she could send Qiu Mu and the others there. That was the time she met Ye Li's mother.
Although she was younger than Qiu Mu's mother, her black and white hair made her look a little older, making her look a little older.Compared with Qiu Mu's mother, who dresses stylishly and exquisitely, and pays attention to body skin care, she seems to be a round younger.
It's just that although she looks simple and inconspicuous, with a thin body and little physical strength, it can be seen that she is being taken care of carefully.The clothes are neat, the face is clean, as long as she doesn't speak and sits there quietly, she is a gentle and refreshing ordinary middle-aged woman.
Ye Li looked at his mother with warm eyes. Even though the other party fell ill when Ye Li was still young and couldn't fulfill his responsibilities as a mother, Ye Li still cared about her without complaining or resentment, doing his best. Take care of her as best you can.
The picture of combing mother's hair and bending down to carefully cut her nails inadvertently touched Qiu Mu's mother, the soft corner of her heart that has been tempered and hardened after countless battles.
In the corner, Qiu Mu lives there.
For so many years, she has not been able to fulfill her responsibilities as a mother, and she is always worried about whether her children will resent her for it. She is moved by Ye Li's behavior and attitude, which is similar to Qiu Mu's situation, as if she has obtained indirect salvation.
Ye Li has never resented his mother, and Qiu Mu, who lives with Ye Li, has always respected Ye Li's mother.So in Qiu Mu's eyes, does she have a similar status?Although I can't be with the children and do something for them, the bond between relatives will not change.
So although there is no need to deliberately do something close, but after that meeting, Qiu Mu's mother still started to call Ye Li's mother "Sister Qi", and then when she sent gifts to the old man and Qiu Mu every now and then, she also took it with her. Ye Li and his mother's share.
Today's two boxes of nutritional products are said to be given to Ye Li's mother, but in fact, they want to use this method to show Ye Li that she attaches great importance to Ye Li, and to make Ye Li happy.
After all, giving Ye Li ten gifts is not as good as giving Ye Li's mother one gift, which will make Ye Li feel happier.
Ye Li accepted it with a smile.
"Thank you auntie."
The woman stroked Ye Li's hair with her soft palm, and said "good boy".
"Come on during the exam. If you do well in the exam, Auntie will give you a reward when you come back."
Qiu Mu stood aside and saw it, and said deliberately: "Ah—Mom, you are partial to Xiaoli again."
The two smiled at Qiu Mu after hearing this.
Qiu Mu muttered helplessly: "Hey, first it was grandpa, and now it's my mother. Xiao Li is so good at capturing people, I'm so jealous."
Qiu Mu's mother closed the trunk, bent her index finger and third finger together, walked over and tapped Qiu Mu's head affectionately: "Xiao Li is carrying such a big suitcase, you just sit here and eat and be lazy, which adult will like you."
Qiu Mu snorted, "He's willing to take it, and I didn't force him."
Ye Li looked at the picture of mother and child getting along with each other with a full smile, feeling very relaxed.
He really likes to watch the pictures of Qiu Mu getting along with his mother. Although it didn't happen to him, it made him feel the warmth of the family.
This time, the two of them were lucky, and the plane arrived on time without delay.
After chatting with his mother for a while, Qiu Mu, who stepped into the waiting room, heard the airport announcement. He originally wanted to call Gu Yu, but instead sent a text message, and then boarded the plane with Ye Li.
Two hours later, the plane landed.Qiu Mu looked up at the sky and said, "Why is it so cloudy at noon?"
Ye Li said casually, "Maybe it's going to rain."
As soon as the voice fell to the ground, it became a prophecy.Bean-sized raindrops fell and hit Qiu Mu's left cheek, and Qiu Mu was taken aback.
"It's really going down." Pulling Qiu Mu's arm with his backhand, Ye Li led him to trot to the inside of the airport.
Qiu Mu clutched her hair that was wet with water droplets, and waved the water away.
He looked expectantly at the almighty Ye Li: "Have you brought your umbrella?"
It's a pity that Ye Li said "no", which made Qiu Mu very sorry.
After receiving the luggage from the luggage area and walking out, Qiu Mu glanced outside, but did not see the person who should be standing outside in his imagination.
Ye Li is very good at reading people's eyes: "Are you looking for Xiao Yu?"
Qiu Mu nodded.
Ye Li reminded: "Make a call."
Qiu Mu took out his phone.
A few minutes later, he looked at Ye Li suspiciously.
"It didn't work."
Ye Li suggested: "Call his landline."
The phone was connected shortly after.
It's just that what happened there was completely beyond Qiu Mu's expectations.
Noisy voices came from the other end of the phone, and even the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard.The person who answered the phone was Gu Yu's father, who should still be working in the company at this time. Qiu Mu blinked his eyes twice quickly, and became more serious about holding the phone: "Did something happen?"
Gu Yu's father said: "Ah Yu broke up with his little girlfriend, and they were arguing to go out, but his mother stopped him from going."
"..." Gu Yu's heart-piercing shouts could be heard clearly on the other end of the phone, Qiu Mu looked forward with a little dazed eyes, not knowing what to say.
After finishing the call in a daze, Qiu Mu had a strange expression on his face.
Want to laugh, but can't laugh because Gu Yu cried too badly; depressed, it seems there is no need to be depressed, because Qiu Mu has already gotten used to the scene of Gu Yu being sad for others.
So Qiu Mu himself didn't know how he was feeling at the moment.
Seeing Ye Li looking at her, Qiu Mu said, "We broke up."
Ye Li frowned quickly and slightly, then immediately let go of the space between his brows, and said naturally, "Oh."
Qiu Mu said: "Hurry up and go back."
Ye Li's face was gray and unattractive, and he nodded absent-mindedly.
Walking outside the airport, I saw a taxi parked outside.The two rushed to the side of the road in the rain, Ye Li pushed Qiu Mu's back immediately after opening the car door and stuffed him into the car.Qiu Mu sat in the air-dry carriage, shaking the water droplets on her head.Wiping off the rain on his face with his hands, he turned around and lay down on the back seat, looking at the opened trunk in front of him, and Ye Li, who was drenched in the rain, putting the luggage in.
"..."
Ye Li's expression was very calm, and his movements were very quick, as if he didn't care about the more and more rainwater pouring on his body.After putting the things away, he raised his hand and closed the trunk door, then trotted into the car.
Qiu Mu didn't know why, because of such a seemingly ordinary move, she stared blankly at Ye Li's profile for a long time.When Ye Li closed the car door, told the driver the address, and then took the time to look at Qiu Mu, but ended up meeting Qiu Mu's eyes, he froze for a moment.
"What are you doing?" Because Qiu Mu's eyes were too strange, Ye Li asked Qiu Mu in a surprised tone: "What's wrong with me?"
Qiu Mu was also startled by his own reaction.
How could he stare at Ye Li's face so impolitely.
"Ah..." Qiu Mu quickly found an excuse: "I see that you are covered with rain."
Ye Li let out an "oh", and sat down a little to the side.
Qiu Mu: "That's not what I meant."
Ye Li: "I know."
He shook his head, brushed away the raindrops falling on his face, and said to the driver in front, "Master, do you have any paper?"
The driver's seat handed over a box of tissues.
"Thanks."
Putting the tissue box between the two of them, motioning for Qiu Mu to wipe himself off, Ye Li took out a few tissues to wipe off the water droplets on his face and head.
"..." Qiu Mu wiped her face with a tissue in her hand, looking a little careless.
He was thinking about the scene just now.
It seems that every time this kind of time comes, Ye Li will subconsciously choose to let Qiu Mu be safe and let him solve the troublesome problems by himself.
Although in the situation just now, Ye Li alone is enough, and Qiu Mu standing outside can't help much.
But Ye Li didn't say "get in the car first and take care of yourself", but opened the car door first, made sure that Qiu Mu was safe to sit in, and then opened the trunk.
It seems that it is a detail that should be paid attention to, and it seems that it is just a very ordinary action. Qiu Mu was distracted by such an insignificant trifle, and did not hear Ye Li's voice at all.
"..."
Feeling her shoulder being touched, Qiu Mu quickly turned her head to look at him.
"Ok?"
Ye Li: "I said, take a bath first when you go back, or go to Xiaoyu first."
what......
Qiu Mu showed a sudden expression of "completely forgetting about it".
Ye Li couldn't help raising his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect Qiu Mu to have such an attitude.
Qiu Mu said, "Go and wash, I'll go find Xiaoyu."
"..." Ye Li didn't say anything: "Okay."
Half an hour later, the car drove to the door of the house.After paying the money, Qiu Mu ran out of the car to give Ye Li two doors inside and outside, and Ye Li walked into the house with the suitcase.
Within two seconds of standing at the entrance, the ground under his feet was stained with a small puddle of water.
Qiu Mu said "I'll go first", and was about to turn around when Ye Li grabbed his wrist.
"?"
Qiu Mu looked back in doubt.
Ye Li: "Wait a minute."
He took out an umbrella from the shoe rack and handed it to Qiu Mu: "Go."
Qiu Mu smiled at him, and walked out the door with an umbrella.
Ye Li stared at his leaving back with a complicated expression.
The rain was still dripping down on his body, his bangs stuck to his forehead one by one, and his clothes were tightly stuck to his skin. He looked downcast and unbearable, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Things with rain are really annoying.
......
Gu Yu's father opened the door, and the moment Qiu Mu put away her umbrella and walked in, a loud slap came from the living room.
Qiu Mu and Gu Yu's father looked at each other, and both walked quickly to the living room.
Gu Yu was covering the side of his face with his hands, staring at his mother with bloodshot eyes, and two half-dried tears could still be seen on his face.
Compared with Gu Yu who has entered puberty and whose height is about to break through the 180 mark, the woman who used to be able to carry Gu Yu on her back and lead him through the streets and alleys looks so short and fragile.
But it was such a woman who had absolutely no advantage in body shape, who beat the tall and strong Gu Yu to the point of physical and mental exhaustion, so she could only dodge blindly in embarrassment.With a huge volume that was completely unimaginable that it came from her mouth, he yelled at Gu Yu, suppressing Gu Yu so that he was powerless to resist.
Gu Yu's mother pointed at Gu Yu's nose and said loudly, "If you dare to find her, you won't have my mother!"
Gu Yu hurriedly jumped on the spot: "Why do you keep doing this!"
"With me without her, with her without me, you choose!" The mother pinched Gu Yu's arm desperately with her hands, guessing that's how the blue and purple scars on Gu Yu's face and wrists came from.
Qiu Mu hurried up to persuade him: "Auntie, auntie, calm down."
The woman glanced at Qiu Mu with a flushed face, and finally her tone improved a bit: "...you are back."
Qiu Mu stood between her and Gu Yu, and said, "Calm down, it's not good for your health if you get angry. Xiao Yu... I'll take Xiao Yu away first. Don't worry, I won't let him walk out of my house. Xiao Li and I will try to persuade him, now the two of you should calm down, okay?"
Gu Yu's mother had a painful expression on her face, and poked Gu Yu's face with her finger: "This unworthy thing..."
Qiu Mu hurriedly blocked Gu Yu from continuing to fight, then pulled Gu Yu and pushed him back to the door.Seeing Gu Yu's stubborn and unhappy expression, he urged in a low voice: "Go, go, don't you see how angry Auntie is? If you think she has something wrong with her body, just stay and continue arguing."
So Gu Yu's heavy footsteps were finally willing to move, and he and Qiu Mu went out one after the other, and looked at his father before leaving.The man made an expression that you should go out and hide for a while, and Gu Yu walked out of her house with her mouth pursed.
"I want to see Siqi."
Gu Yu said stubbornly.
Qiu Mu: "Then you were scolded even more fiercely by your aunt when you came back?"
"..."
Qiu Mu: "Have you called yet?"
Speaking of this, Gu Yu suddenly cried uncomfortably: "She doesn't answer..."
Qiu Mu sighed: "Then even if you pass by, you will probably just be blocked from the door."
"No matter how long, I will wait. I will stand at the door of her house and wait for her to come out."
Qiu Mu: "Did you never think that being seen by her parents and neighbors around her house would cause her a lot of trouble?"
Gu Yu got angry and said anxiously: "Then what should I do! If I don't see her, I won't be able to calm down for a moment."
Qiu Mu took Gu Yu home with an umbrella, and said, "Don't worry, it's useless to worry, things have already happened."
"You don't understand anything." Gu Yu said angrily to Qiu Mu in a resentful tone.Qiu Mu's heart ached quietly, but she didn't speak.
He's been through this kind of thing many times.From the freshman year to the present, Gu Yu has made many girlfriends in separate and combined ways. Qiu Mu has seen the painful and sad scene of breaking up and falling in love like today. It's all Qiu Mu.
It's just that Gu Yu was a little older and more mature at that time, and he wouldn't go to the point of antagonizing his family and even sarcastically comforting his friends around him like he is now.
Qiu Mu brought out the words that persuaded Gu Yu in her previous life and reused them. After listening to Gu Yu, her complexion looked better and her mood stabilized a little.
Ye Li dried the dripping water from her hair with a towel, and walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing Qiu Mu and Gu Yu, he found that the clothes on Qiu Mu's body, the fabric on the shoulders and back were still wet, so he said, "Go take a bath."
Qiu Mu replied "it doesn't matter".
Ye Li looked at Qiu Mu with uncompromising eyes, and Qiu Mu's momentum unknowingly weakened.
He glanced at Gu Yu, comforted him with his eyes, then got up and left the living room.
Gu Yu sat alone on the sofa, hunched over and depressed, like a poor bear boy who is unloved.
Ye Li walked over and said in a voice that Qiu Mu couldn't hear, "Look at what you look like now."
Gu Yu stared at the ground anxiously, extremely aggrieved.
"Like a man, crying and crying is ugly." Ye Li said, "If Chen Siqi sees it, she will definitely be glad that she made a wise decision and regret how she ever dated a cowardly guy like you."
Gu Yu's eyes are red - Contrary to Qiu Mu's gentle reassurance like a spring breeze, Ye Li is like a cruel and ruthless devil with a cold face: "Why are you going too far."
Ye Li: "If you are angry, stop crying quickly."
Gu Yu angrily wiped away her tears with her hands, and was so excited by Ye Li's words that she didn't want to cry anymore.
Ye Li said: "Do you want to make up with her?"
Gu Yu naturally wanted to nod, and said in a muffled voice, "En."
Ye Li: "Then find a way to reconcile with her, find out why she broke up with her, and don't complain about yourself here. You will only hurt those who care about you, and make people around you worry about you. any altering effect."
Gu Yu pondered Ye Li's words carefully, and whispered, "Xiao Li, you...although you have a poisonous tongue, you actually care about me. Why do you always speak so fiercely?"
Ye Li: "..."
I don't know how Qiu Mu fell in love with this silly Baitian, it's really annoying to think about it.
He is filial to his mother, respects the elderly, and is as close as a brother to Qiu Mu, who is not related by blood.
He will pay attention to Qiu Mu's eating habits, and will spend his time studying the tastes that the other party likes.He took care of Qiu Mu meticulously in his behavior, and he could always easily guess what the other party needed, and then provide help in time.
It's like a chronic drug that is ubiquitous and permeates around the body. Once you enjoy the care of the other party and become obsessed with the feeling of being pampered, the feeling of losing it will be like gouge out the heart and pain.

Ye Li: "It's okay, I've already sorted it out."

Then when Ye Li reached out to pick up the clothes in the cubicle, Qiu Mu's expression changed, and he jumped off the chair: "Wait, I'll do it myself!"
Ye Li: "I took it all."
After packing the underwear in a separate bag, Ye Li turned to him and said, "It's finished—do you have anything else to bring?"
"..." Qiu Mu spoke very slowly: "Speaking of which, it seems that you did all these things for me before."

The woman "giggled" and laughed: "How could it be disgusting."
Qiu Mu probably wished to tie Ye Li by his side, so as not to let others snatch him away.

"It's really going down." Pulling Qiu Mu's arm with his backhand, Ye Li led him to trot to the inside of the airport.
Qiu Mu clutched her hair that was wet with water droplets, and waved the water away.
He looked expectantly at the almighty Ye Li: "Have you brought your umbrella?"
It's a pity that Ye Li said "no", which made Qiu Mu very sorry.
After receiving the luggage from the luggage area and walking out, Qiu Mu glanced outside, but did not see the person who should be standing outside in his imagination.
Ye Li is very good at reading people's eyes: "Are you looking for Xiao Yu?"
Qiu Mu nodded.
Ye Li reminded: "Make a call."
Qiu Mu took out his phone.
A few minutes later, he looked at Ye Li suspiciously.
"It didn't work."
Ye Li suggested: "Call his landline."
The phone was connected shortly after.
It's just that what happened there was completely beyond Qiu Mu's expectations.
Noisy voices came from the other end of the phone, and even the sound of heavy objects falling to the ground could be heard.The person who answered the phone was Gu Yu's father, who should still be working in the company at this time. Qiu Mu blinked his eyes twice quickly, and became more serious about holding the phone: "Did something happen?"
Gu Yu's father said: "Ah Yu broke up with his little girlfriend, and they were arguing to go out, but his mother stopped him from going."
"..." Gu Yu's heart-piercing shouts could be heard clearly on the other end of the phone, Qiu Mu looked forward with a little dazed eyes, not knowing what to say.
After finishing the call in a daze, Qiu Mu had a strange expression on his face.
Want to laugh, but can't laugh because Gu Yu cried too badly; depressed, it seems there is no need to be depressed, because Qiu Mu has already gotten used to the scene of Gu Yu being sad for others.
So Qiu Mu himself didn't know how he was feeling at the moment.
Seeing Ye Li looking at her, Qiu Mu said, "We broke up."
Ye Li frowned quickly and slightly, then immediately let go of the space between his brows, and said naturally, "Oh."
Qiu Mu said: "Hurry up and go back."
Ye Li's face was gray and unattractive, and he nodded absent-mindedly.
Walking outside the airport, I saw a taxi parked outside.The two rushed to the side of the road in the rain, Ye Li pushed Qiu Mu's back immediately after opening the car door and stuffed him into the car.Qiu Mu sat in the air-dry carriage, shaking the water droplets on her head.Wiping off the rain on his face with his hands, he turned around and lay down on the back seat, looking at the opened trunk in front of him, and Ye Li, who was drenched in the rain, putting the luggage in.
"..."
Ye Li's expression was very calm, and his movements were very quick, as if he didn't care about the more and more rainwater pouring on his body.After putting the things away, he raised his hand and closed the trunk door, then trotted into the car.
Qiu Mu didn't know why, because of such a seemingly ordinary move, she stared blankly at Ye Li's profile for a long time.When Ye Li closed the car door, told the driver the address, and then took the time to look at Qiu Mu, but ended up meeting Qiu Mu's eyes, he froze for a moment.
"What are you doing?" Because Qiu Mu's eyes were too strange, Ye Li asked Qiu Mu in a surprised tone: "What's wrong with me?"
Qiu Mu was also startled by his own reaction.
How could he stare at Ye Li's face so impolitely.
"Ah..." Qiu Mu quickly found an excuse: "I see that you are covered with rain."
Ye Li let out an "oh", and sat down a little to the side.
Qiu Mu: "That's not what I meant."
Ye Li: "I know."
He shook his head, brushed away the raindrops falling on his face, and said to the driver in front, "Master, do you have any paper?"
The driver's seat handed over a box of tissues.
"Thanks."
Putting the tissue box between the two of them, motioning for Qiu Mu to wipe himself off, Ye Li took out a few tissues to wipe off the water droplets on his face and head.
"..." Qiu Mu wiped her face with a tissue in her hand, looking a little careless.
He was thinking about the scene just now.
It seems that every time this kind of time comes, Ye Li will subconsciously choose to let Qiu Mu be safe and let him solve the troublesome problems by himself.
Although in the situation just now, Ye Li alone is enough, and Qiu Mu standing outside can't help much.
But Ye Li didn't say "get in the car first and take care of yourself", but opened the car door first, made sure that Qiu Mu was safe to sit in, and then opened the trunk.
It seems that it is a detail that should be paid attention to, and it seems that it is just a very ordinary action. Qiu Mu was distracted by such an insignificant trifle, and did not hear Ye Li's voice at all.
"..."
Feeling her shoulder being touched, Qiu Mu quickly turned her head to look at him.
"Ok?"
Ye Li: "I said, take a bath first when you go back, or go to Xiaoyu first."
what......
Qiu Mu showed a sudden expression of "completely forgetting about it".
Ye Li couldn't help raising his eyebrows, as if he didn't expect Qiu Mu to have such an attitude.
Qiu Mu said, "Go and wash, I'll go find Xiaoyu."
"..." Ye Li didn't say anything: "Okay."
Half an hour later, the car drove to the door of the house.After paying the money, Qiu Mu ran out of the car to give Ye Li two doors inside and outside, and Ye Li walked into the house with the suitcase.
Within two seconds of standing at the entrance, the ground under his feet was stained with a small puddle of water.
Qiu Mu said "I'll go first", and was about to turn around when Ye Li grabbed his wrist.
"?"
Qiu Mu looked back in doubt.
Ye Li: "Wait a minute."
He took out an umbrella from the shoe rack and handed it to Qiu Mu: "Go."
Qiu Mu smiled at him, and walked out the door with an umbrella.
Ye Li stared at his leaving back with a complicated expression.
The rain was still dripping down on his body, his bangs stuck to his forehead one by one, and his clothes were tightly stuck to his skin. He looked downcast and unbearable, which made people feel very uncomfortable.
Things with rain are really annoying.
......
Gu Yu's father opened the door, and the moment Qiu Mu put away her umbrella and walked in, a loud slap came from the living room.
Qiu Mu and Gu Yu's father looked at each other, and both walked quickly to the living room.
Gu Yu was covering the side of his face with his hands, staring at his mother with bloodshot eyes, and two half-dried tears could still be seen on his face.
Compared with Gu Yu who has entered puberty and whose height is about to break through the 180 mark, the woman who used to be able to carry Gu Yu on her back and lead him through the streets and alleys looks so short and fragile.
But it was such a woman who had absolutely no advantage in body shape, who beat the tall and strong Gu Yu to the point of physical and mental exhaustion, so she could only dodge blindly in embarrassment.With a huge volume that was completely unimaginable that it came from her mouth, he yelled at Gu Yu, suppressing Gu Yu so that he was powerless to resist.
Gu Yu's mother pointed at Gu Yu's nose and said loudly, "If you dare to find her, you won't have my mother!"
Gu Yu hurriedly jumped on the spot: "Why do you keep doing this!"
"With me without her, with her without me, you choose!" The mother pinched Gu Yu's arm desperately with her hands, guessing that's how the blue and purple scars on Gu Yu's face and wrists came from.
Qiu Mu hurried up to persuade him: "Auntie, auntie, calm down."
The woman glanced at Qiu Mu with a flushed face, and finally her tone improved a bit: "...you are back."
Qiu Mu stood between her and Gu Yu, and said, "Calm down, it's not good for your health if you get angry. Xiao Yu... I'll take Xiao Yu away first. Don't worry, I won't let him walk out of my house. Xiao Li and I will try to persuade him, now the two of you should calm down, okay?"
Gu Yu's mother had a painful expression on her face, and poked Gu Yu's face with her finger: "This unworthy thing..."
Qiu Mu hurriedly blocked Gu Yu from continuing to fight, then pulled Gu Yu and pushed him back to the door.Seeing Gu Yu's stubborn and unhappy expression, he urged in a low voice: "Go, go, don't you see how angry Auntie is? If you think she has something wrong with her body, just stay and continue arguing."
So Gu Yu's heavy footsteps were finally willing to move, and he and Qiu Mu went out one after the other, and looked at his father before leaving.The man made an expression that you should go out and hide for a while, and Gu Yu walked out of her house with her mouth pursed.
"I want to see Siqi."
Gu Yu said stubbornly.
Qiu Mu: "Then you were scolded even more fiercely by your aunt when you came back?"
"..."
Qiu Mu: "Have you called yet?"
Speaking of this, Gu Yu suddenly cried uncomfortably: "She doesn't answer..."
Qiu Mu sighed: "Then even if you pass by, you will probably just be blocked from the door."
"No matter how long, I will wait. I will stand at the door of her house and wait for her to come out."
Qiu Mu: "Did you never think that being seen by her parents and neighbors around her house would cause her a lot of trouble?"
Gu Yu got angry and said anxiously: "Then what should I do! If I don't see her, I won't be able to calm down for a moment."
Qiu Mu took Gu Yu home with an umbrella, and said, "Don't worry, it's useless to worry, things have already happened."
"You don't understand anything." Gu Yu said angrily to Qiu Mu in a resentful tone.Qiu Mu's heart ached quietly, but she didn't speak.
He's been through this kind of thing many times.From the freshman year to the present, Gu Yu has made many girlfriends in separate and combined ways. Qiu Mu has seen the painful and sad scene of breaking up and falling in love like today. It's all Qiu Mu.
It's just that Gu Yu was a little older and more mature at that time, and he wouldn't go to the point of antagonizing his family and even sarcastically comforting his friends around him like he is now.
Qiu Mu brought out the words that persuaded Gu Yu in her previous life and reused them. After listening to Gu Yu, her complexion looked better and her mood stabilized a little.
Ye Li dried the dripping water from her hair with a towel, and walked out of the bathroom.
Seeing Qiu Mu and Gu Yu, he found that the clothes on Qiu Mu's body, the fabric on the shoulders and back were still wet, so he said, "Go take a bath."
Qiu Mu replied "it doesn't matter".
Ye Li looked at Qiu Mu with uncompromising eyes, and Qiu Mu's momentum unknowingly weakened.
He glanced at Gu Yu, comforted him with his eyes, then got up and left the living room.
Gu Yu sat alone on the sofa, hunched over and depressed, like a poor bear boy who is unloved.
Ye Li walked over and said in a voice that Qiu Mu couldn't hear, "Look at what you look like now."
Gu Yu stared at the ground anxiously, extremely aggrieved.
"Like a man, crying and crying is ugly." Ye Li said, "If Chen Siqi sees it, she will definitely be glad that she made a wise decision and regret how she ever dated a cowardly guy like you."
Gu Yu's eyes are red - Contrary to Qiu Mu's gentle reassurance like a spring breeze, Ye Li is like a cruel and ruthless devil with a cold face: "Why are you going too far."
Ye Li: "If you are angry, stop crying quickly."
Gu Yu angrily wiped away her tears with her hands, and was so excited by Ye Li's words that she didn't want to cry anymore.
Ye Li said: "Do you want to make up with her?"
Gu Yu naturally wanted to nod, and said in a muffled voice, "En."
Ye Li: "Then find a way to reconcile with her, find out why she broke up with her, and don't complain about yourself here. You will only hurt those who care about you, and make people around you worry about you. any altering effect."
Gu Yu pondered Ye Li's words carefully, and whispered, "Xiao Li, you...although you have a poisonous tongue, you actually care about me. Why do you always speak so fiercely?"
Ye Li: "..."
I don't know how Qiu Mu fell in love with this silly Baitian, it's really annoying to think about it.
