C50 (1/2)
Where Huang Guizhi had gone to during the few days she was missing, Jin Xiaolou had actually always had her doubts.
Especially when he saw that she was wearing a new pair of embroidered cloth shoes when she returned.
It was just that, all of his doubts had been dispelled by Gui Zhi's safe return, the result was extremely joyous. As for the process, Jin Xiaolou understood, if Gui Zhi wanted to tell him, he would naturally ask for it.
Thus, when Gui Zhi asked in a soft voice, Jin Xiaolou turned her head over and tilted her face to look at Huang Guizhi.
Huang Guizhi's face was flushed red, her expression somewhat strange.
She lowered her eyes and chuckled, revealing two faint dimples. ”I met someone.”
”Alone?” Jin Xiaolou stretched out his arm and put it on Gui Qi's shoulder, supporting his chin with his palm, he waited for Huang Guizhi to continue speaking.
Unexpectedly, Gui Zhi smiled, raised his hand and tapped Lou Cheng's nose, teasing, ”You look like you're curious about a little cat. I won't say any more!”
After Jin Xiaolou heard this, and looked at Huang Guizhi's expression, she completely understood what was going on.
However, like this, Jin Xiaolou found it even more strange.
”But how can it be like this? The one who started off was you, and the one who stopped halfway through her words was also you!” Jin Xiaolou wrinkled her nose, she really was like a cat.
Huang Guizhi restrained her smile: ”That day, when I saw how Gao Lang's fever was great, I couldn't get rid of you. After I finished cooking, when I went to the stream to wash my clothes, I thought of going to the forest to look for that herb.”
Gui Qi began to talk.
As Jin Xiaolou listened, she took out a piece of clothes of her own and put it on Gui Qi.
”I didn't know that when you mentioned going into the woods to find something, it seemed so easy, but once I went in, I was like a headless fly, wandering around until the sky gradually darkened. Not only was I unable to find any herbs, I could not even find the way back.”
Huang Guizhi continued: ”The moment the forest is dark, I panicked. I kept having the feeling that green eyes were surrounding me from all sides, extremely scared, and urgently rushing forward. I didn't know why, but my feet were empty and I actually fell on the edge of a cliff.”
Although Huang Guizhi was already sitting in front of him, perfectly fine.
But hearing that, Jin Xiaolou still clenched her teeth, because she had seen the sharp stone at the bottom of the cliff.
”I hastily pulled on a nearby vine. Just as I was struggling to fall, a person saved me.”
”At that time, the sky was very dark and I could not see his face clearly. He brought me to a valley deep in the forest, and they set up camp there. They told me not to tell anyone about this and to treat it as a dream.”
Jin Xiaolou nodded, that's right, no wonder that day, no matter how much Jin Dacheng beat Gui Zhi up, he was unwilling to explain.
Gui Zhi was someone who kept his word.
Only, Jin Xiaolou opened her mouth and said: ”But … ”You told me now …”
Huang Guizhi nodded his head: ”Because I treat you as me, I don't want to hide anything from you.”
In her previous life, Jin Xiaolou was born at the right time for family planning. Jin Xiaolou was an only child, she did not have any siblings.
When she was in university, she saw that some of her roommates had sisters in their family. When it came to the topic of intimacy between sisters, Jin Xiaolou was really envious from the bottom of her heart.
At this moment, facing Huang Guizhi, Jin Xiaolou suddenly felt a close intimacy between sisters.
”Merely, I do not even know the name of the person who saved my life.” Huang Guizhi's gaze shifted to the window, looking at the drifting clouds in the sky above Lan Xin. She sighed lightly, ”We may not meet again for the rest of our lives.”
Outside the window, Gao Lang was seated on the stone stove behind the thatched cottage.
The flame licked the bottom of the pot. The water was already boiling hot as steam rose from the pot and rushed upwards.
”Is it them?” Gao Lang threw a piece of firewood in.
There was no one around him. The sound of his mouth opening and closing was mixed with the gurgling sound of water.
”Yes.” Chang An's voice came out.
However, when he swept his gaze over them, he could not see where he was. If he looked carefully, he would be able to vaguely see that he was hiding in the shadows of the trees.
”Who's that?” Gao Lang stopped moving and the look in his eyes became murderous.
”Ol 'Five.”
Gao Lang smirked, as if he was smiling, but he was not sincere at all. ”Ol 'Five, you really were the first to lose your cool.”
That night, Jin Xiaolou slept under the same bed as Huang Guizhi.
The next morning, while Gui Zhi was still sleeping soundly, Jin Xiaolou got up from the bed and pulled the warm Gao Lang out from under the other bed. Pulling the drowsy Gao Lang, he walked towards the entrance of the village with light footsteps.
”My wife, where are we going this early?” Gao Lang yawned, scratched his head, looking like he had not slept soundly.
Jin Xiaolou looked at Mo Hei's road: ”Enter the city, we will go to the shop today.”
Gao Lang's figure was huge, and as he walked, he coincidentally blocked Jin Xiaolou's path, completely blocking the morning breeze that was blowing from the left.
Maybe the boy naturally emitted a warm feeling. Jin Xiaolou felt that the autumn morning, which had yet to light up, had also become warm.
The reason she had pulled Gao Lang along was because she saw his strength.
