Go Through the Book and Save the Hero! - v2 Chapter 97
Gu Zhixing’s father’s funeral will officially begin at 10:30.
At four o’clock, the Gu family’s large villa is brightly lit. The Gu family is convening a family meeting to determine all the process links, the ceremony process, the guest list, the speech script, the guests’ preferences… long The cumbersome details and rules show the Gu family’s heritage and staleness as an old family.
The street lamps in the villa garden exude a gleaming light, luxury cars are parked in the parking lot one after another, and people in black suits and dresses are guided by the servants in front of the main house’s council hall. Gu Zhixing was missing at the meeting of the Gu family that brought together many concubines, because she had a fever a few days ago, and she has not fully recovered. The Gu family who let her rest.
The sky was dark, and the faint light set off a bit of inky blue.
The “highly guarded” Gu family villa is extremely quiet, and the servants have already been busy according to the schedule.
The garden is at the most dewy time, Zhou Ruyao will take two steps on the lawn, and his trousers will also be wet.
He stood on tiptoe and rolled down the lawn, wrinkling his nose, not very fond of the feeling of being wet against his ankles.
But after all, it was a fish in troubled waters who sneaked to Gu’s house, and Zhou Ruyao didn’t dare to go anywhere else. At this moment, only the garden was not cleaned by the servants.
Zhou Ruyao heard a creaking sound before he took a few steps.
He looked over, and in the darkness, the swing was shaking slightly, and there was a vague figure on the chair.
A gust of wind blew, Zhou Ruyao rubbed the goose bumps on his body and ran over.
When he ran to the swing, he saw the familiar person lying comfortably on the swing, with his legs on the swing rails.
Zhou Ruyao walked to the side, supported the armrest behind Gu Zhixing with both hands, stuck her head out from behind her and bit her ear, “Why did you call me here in the middle of the night, although our house is not far away? , but I’m going to sleep too, okay?”
Gu Zhixing was playing games with a lollipop in his mouth, when he heard the voice shrug his shoulders, “Why are you speaking in an angry voice.”
Zhou Ruyao’s nose was filled with a cool candy smell.
He quietly distanced himself, straightened up and walked to the swing, and moved Gu Zhixing’s legs away to sit on the swing.
“Isn’t this afraid of being discovered?”
“You sneaked in anyway, and they found out that they dared to drive you away?”
“That’s it.”
Zhou Ruyao held the handrail of the swing, and as soon as his feet exerted force, the swing shook greatly.
Gu Zhixing quickly grabbed the armrest, “I’m playing games.”
Zhou Ruyao: “What happened?”
Gu Zhixing put away his phone and said earnestly, “I can’t sleep.”
Zhou Ruyao: “…”
Zhou Ruyao: “That’s why you called everyone here!”
“Of course not.” Gu Zhixing lowered his gaze and said in a low voice, “The day before yesterday, my father’s estate was liquidated.”
Zhou Ruyao was slightly startled, moved his finger, and suddenly said, “A week later, it’s your birthday, so auntie wants to…”
He was speechless, but Gu Zhixing understood it, she nodded, and added: “I was taken a few days ago to measure, and I should make a new dress. .”
He said, “I see.”
Gu Zhixing leaned against the hinge of the swing, and said, “At that time, can we still be the same as now?”
Would it be strange that the brother of the childhood sweetheart has become a girl for so many years?
Do you think this breaks their established consensus?
She felt unspeakably nervous.
The curvature of Zhou Ruyao’s mouth stopped, and there was a dry bitter taste in his mouth.
But after a few seconds, he showed a bright smile, “Of course, you are just changing your clothes, not everyone has changed.”
Zhou Ruyao opened her hand, wrapped her shoulders and hugged her fiercely, and patted her back.
He said again: “Whether you are a boy or a girl, you are A Xing.”
“Will it be?” Zhou Ruyao laughed softly, “I think it looks good.”
Gu Zhixing: “How do you know, I’ve never worn it.”
Zhou Ruyao laughed again, her bright black eyes curved, but did not answer.
Gu Zhixing stabbed him with his elbow, “What are you laughing at.”
“It’s nothing.” Zhou Ruyao touched his chin, and then said strangely: “But then, don’t you need a female companion for your birthday party?”
“It seems that I have to find a male partner.” Gu Zhixing paused, his face twisted, “Then I have to practice women’s steps.”
Zhou Ruyao rolled his eyes, “Well, I’ll be your male companion. You’ll be fine when the time comes, how about it?”
Zhou Ruyao responded cheerfully, the breeze blew his black hair, he couldn’t help but laughed again.
He said, “Xing, I thought you would be like this for the rest of your life.”
Gu Zhixing: “Huh?”
Zhou Ruyao: “You never seem to open the teddy bear doll I secretly gave you when I was a child. I thought you didn’t like it.”
Gu Zhixing: “How do you know I didn’t open it?”
Zhou Ruyao: “I found it under your bed when I was playing hide-and-seek in elementary school.”
Gu Zhixing: “…Crap, no wonder I couldn’t find you that day!”
Zhou Ruyao: “This is not the point!”
Gu Zhixing: “Actually, I like it, but at that time I was always afraid of being discovered, and I just wanted to hide it first.”
Gu Zhixing: “But, if you hide it, you seem to forget it.”
Zhou Ruyao’s eyes darkened a little, and he felt a little unspeakable stuffiness in his heart, but after a few seconds he took Gu Zhixing’s shoulder again, squeezed and patted, ” It’s okay, after today, everything is over!”
Gu Zhixing looked up at the sky, the dark blue sky faded away, and a clear light emerged. There was a bit of disappointment in her eyes, “Will it pass?”
When Zhou Ruyao and her ended the conversation and sneaked out of Gu’s house and returned home, there was still a little smile on his face.
It’s only 5:10, I should be able to sleep for a few more hours.
Zhou Ruyao thought so, but she couldn’t fall asleep when she tossed and turned on the bed.
He stood up, couldn’t help holding the air, and turned lightly for half a circle.
The sky light reflected in the room through the gaps in the curtains, he danced lightly to smash the light, and after a few minutes, he turned and fell straight on the bed.
Zhou Ruyao’s face was covered with the quilt, and after a long while, she smiled softly.
9:40, the funeral is about to start, and I don’t know if it’s because the gods are not beautiful or if the funeral should always be accompanied by bad weather to have a more atmosphere, the rain is falling.
The speeches in the banquet hall were very dull. After the lengthy speeches of the elders and elders, the ceremony officially came to the funeral, and then the younger people of the Gu family came forward to lead the guests to observe a moment of silence and offer incense.
In front of the Gu family’s cemetery, Zhou Ruyao heard the humane words from the funeral director: “Gu Zhixing, the grandson of Gu’s family, come out.”
He raised his head excitedly, and then the excitement disappeared.
The men in suits and leather shoes held up black umbrellas, forming a small black ocean current, surrounded by the crowd, Gu Zhixing held sandalwood urns in both hands. The well-fitting suit made Gu Zhixing look like a crown of jade, with a long body and a jade stand, and there was a bit of excellence and dignity in his indifference and calmness. But the strange thing is that there seems to be a light-colored slender wound around the mouth, but this adds a bit of unruly sloppyness.
As soon as Gu Zhixing appeared, Zhou Ruyao heard the small exclamations around him.
In the distant crowd, Gu Zhixing passed him, and they met. Under the connection of black umbrellas, in the finely woven rain curtain, in the humid and cold air, they could not see each other’s expressions clearly. Everything is as blurry as a blurred ink painting.
The eyes met for an instant, and Zhou Ruyao saw her straight as a loose back walking straight forward.
The session is over, and the guests should return to the banquet hall, followed by a cabaret performance by the band.
Gu Zhi walked a few steps and said to the many bodyguards around him, “You all go first, I’ll go to my father’s place and then put the incense sticks.”
After they left, Gu Zhixing walked back to his father’s tombstone and squatted halfway, picking up a stick of incense.
Then she closed her eyes and put her hands together.
The fine raindrops fell on the tips of her hair, face and body, bringing a bit of gloomy poetry.
After a few seconds, the constant wetness stopped.
Gu Zhixing opened his eyes and looked up, only to see Zhou Ruyao holding an umbrella for her, but he was soaked in the rain.
He looked at her quietly, the black hair on his forehead was wet, and the black eyes were heavy.
Silence.
She looked at him for a few seconds, then stood up, “I changed my mind.”
Zhou Ruyao said “um”.
Gu Zhixing added: “It’s not good, after all—”
“Axing.” Zhou Ruyao interrupted her, and her black eyes curled up again, smiling like a spring breeze, “You are so serious, I really don’t mind. Listen to your mother’s words and start anew Well, no matter what you choose, I’ll be on your side.”
Zhou Ruyao took out the handkerchief on her chest and carefully wiped away the water from the wound on her face, “This wound, hiss, it hurts when I look at it.”
Gu Zhixing said with all seriousness, “My flesh is in her fingernails.”
Zhou Ruyao: “Hidden snacks, right?”
Gu Zhixing: “…”
She said again: “How do you know I want to start over?”
“I don’t know what kind of person you are?” Zhou Ruyao paused and said, “Have you made up your mind?”
Gu Zhixing wanted to ask him what kind of person he was, when he heard the second half of his sentence, he said, “No, it’s over. But since you support me, you can’t just talk about it. , the whole point of practical action.”
He raised his umbrella like a sword and gave a somewhat comical knightly salute. Then he quickly opened the umbrella and held it on Gu Zhixing’s head, his eyes burning brightly, “How about offering loyalty? It’s interesting, right?”
Gu Zhixing raised his eyebrows, “Not bad, reward!”
Zhou Ruyao flicked his tongue and winked, “Thank you, Your Majesty! I will swear allegiance to the death!”
Gu Zhixing: “No, you can just give me the new gun skin that you unpacked a few days ago.”
Zhou Ruyao: “Hyun Jun! I will rebel against you immediately!”
Gu Zhixing: “You don’t even give me the gun skin, what kind of knight are you!”
Zhou Ruyao: “Is it possible that it is discrimination.”
Gu Zhixing: “Why have you been with me for so long, I don’t even have the slightest sense of humor.”
Zhou Ruyao: “…”
For a while, Gu Zhixing said softly, “Ru Yao, thank you.”
He didn’t speak, he smiled.
What is there to be grateful for, since he learned her identity when he was young, they have been this secret allies for a long time.
“Axing—you—you are—”
“Listen, it was an accident, you mustn’t—”
“…but-“
“Ru Yao! Don’t ask, go out!”
“Good.”
“Keep this a secret and act like nothing happened.”
“Then I will treat you as having a tumor on your chest, okay?”
“…”
The conversation when he was young suddenly resounded in his mind, Zhou Ruyao couldn’t help laughing.
Gu Zhixing was inexplicable, “What’s wrong with you?”
Zhou Ruyao: “It’s fine.”
The rain continued to fall, Zhou Ruyao’s shoulders were wet, and the wet and sticky clothes were pressed against his arms. He shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and looked at Gu Zhixing’s profile with burning eyes.
In this unbreakable alliance, she is his close classmate, cherished brother, and loyal lord.
He is his best friend whose love grows and is hopeless.
When Zhou Ruyao woke up, his vision was blurred, and the corners of his eyes were a little wet.
He rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, and the sound of rain outside the window made him unable to tell whether it was in a dream or in reality for a while.
Next, Zhou Ruyao heard Gu Zhixing’s irritable “tsk” sound, and he followed Shengyuan.
Gu Zhixing was wearing SpongeBob SquarePants doll pajamas, nestled in front of the TV screen, holding the handle and dangling around.
He smiled, got up and walked behind her, hugged her from behind and dangled with her.
Gu Zhixing shook his hand, the character on the screen did not make a combo, and the two letters KO jumped out instantly.
She shook her shoulders and turned her head, “So sticky.”
Zhou Ruyao grinned and hit her head with her head, “I had a nightmare.”
Gu Zhixing groaned inwardly, with lingering fears, “Ah? No way…”
Years have passed since high school, but it still left a deep shadow on her.
Zhou Ruyao laughed, but didn’t speak, just put one hand around her waist and helped her up.
Gu Zhixing frowned, “What are you doing?”
Zhou Ruyao: “Dance with me.”
Gu Zhixing: “…? Are you sick?”
Zhou Ruyao: “You promised before that you would dance with me on the first dance of the birthday party.”
Gu Zhixing frowned, thought for a while, and finally figured out this matter from his mind.
Gu Zhixing: “No, I was a man at the time, so it’s too weird for two men to dance?”
Zhou Ruyao: “But you made it clear that I am your boyfriend! In the end, you still danced with the little girl!”
Gu Zhixing: “You can be reasonable, even if you don’t consider my identity at the time to dance with you as **** or not, you have to consider that I haven’t practiced women’s steps, right?!”
Zhou Ruyao: “I know you can’t dance women’s steps, but I can!”
Gu Zhixing: “…?”
Zhou Ruyao didn’t care so much, he hugged her “thick” waist and jumped up.
Accompanied by the game’s special effects, the bloated Patty and SpongeBob were forced to dance in the living room.
Gu Zhixing: “When did you practice the women’s step, how come I don’t know?”
Zhou Ruyao: “It seems to be when we experienced the world of novels in high school.”
Gu Zhixing: “Is it possible that you are actually a lesbian?”
Zhou Ruyao: “Huh?”
Gu Zhixing: “Your heart is a girl, but you love a girl too.”
Zhou Ruyao: “…?”
He let go and laughed. Now that he is twenty-five years old, his youthful youth has long since faded away, but when he smiles, his black eyes are as bright as a youthful star.
In fact, I just want to hold hands with you and dance with you.
At that time, I traveled through countless novel worlds in my dreams, and you in those worlds were sometimes another you, and sometimes completely different from you. Sometimes you will be a real boy, you may fall in love with a real girl, and maybe you will never be able to love someone for the rest of your life. But in so many worlds, not one will fall in love with me.
Ah, under so many possibilities, you have never given me a love, how dare I hope for more.
Under hopeless love, I just ask you to dance a dance that belongs to us.
Gu Zhixing tilted his head and touched his fluffy head.
Zhou Ruyao arched her hand, but pressed her shoulders, head straight to the side of her neck.
The sound of rain outside the window knocked on the window, breaking the silence of the room. The charming wind blew from nowhere, disturbing the hearts of the two of them.
Longing for a long time, Zhou Ruyao’s fingers were inserted into her soft black hair.
He said, “I’ll braid you a one-sided boxing braid tomorrow.”
Gu Zhixing: “Alright, it just so happens that I will lay off a few high-level executives at the meeting tomorrow.”
Zhou Ruyao: “Then I will drive that limited sports car for you tomorrow. It’s murderous enough.”
Gu Zhixing: “I want to fire people, not kill people.”
Zhou Ruyao: “…”
Gu Zhixing: “Speaking of sports cars, do you know why Doraemon doesn’t have a neck?”
Zhou Ruyao: “Ah? Why?”
Gu Zhixing: “Because the blue neck accumulates mud.”
& nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; & nbsp; Zhou Ruyu: “Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha”
Gu Zhixing nodded with satisfaction.
Long time.
“Ah Xing, do your hands still hurt in the rain?”
“Does your eyes still hurt?”
They both spoke at the same time, looked at each other for a few seconds, and laughed together again.
No more pain.
Zhou Ruyao thought.
He once dreamed of a dance, but then he gave up even this dance, just asking her to be safe and sound every year.
But fate will also favor him, with love as a salutation, to welcome him, the knight, who has been bestowed by his monarch with the supreme honor – an eternal follow.
Zhou Ruyao lowered her head and gently placed a feather-like kiss on her forehead.
“Axing – can you lay off people the day after tomorrow, let’s go out and play tomorrow!”
“Say it again in this voice.”
“…?Why?”
“It feels like your voice is too loud.”
“…”
“Don’t be angry, it’s a good clip, let’s have more.”
“No, it can’t be clamped, can’t the bubble sound?”
“That’s it.”
