She Can Also Be Gentle - Chapter 75
Chi Nuan’s heartbeat speeded up abruptly, and after the freeze, Gu Ningzi’s face appeared in the center of the screen.
“…”
“…”
“Aunt Gu! It’s Aunt Gu!” Xiao Wutong touched up excitedly, and Chi Nuan in the video window was replaced by a grinning mouth with missing front teeth.
“Aunt Gu, I wish you good health and all wishes come true!” Xiao Wutong said, covering his mouth, and chuckled twice and ran away.
Chi Nuan’s face reappeared in the video. She smiled at Gu Ningzi, Gu Ningzi’s eyes, Gu Ningzi’s lips… There seemed to be claws scratching in her heart: “Hi…”
Gu Ningzi: “Hi.”
Gu Ningzi’s voice was a little hoarse, and Chi Nuan said nervously, “…Are you uncomfortable? Still haven’t rested?”
Gu Ningzi: “The jet lag is not enough.”
In my impression, Gu Ningzi didn’t seem to be troubled by jet lag the last time he returned to Yuncheng? Chi Nuan couldn’t think of a reliable method, and said in distress, “What should I do? Will reading to you help?”
The video clocked one second after another and walked forward. Gu Ningzi dropped her head slightly. When she lifted it up again, her faint smile had already reached the corners of her eyes and lips.
She didn’t laugh strongly, but Chi Nuan was still surprised, and her cheeks slowly reddened in her loss.
Gu Ningzi: “You can try.”
Chi Nuan: “Okay…”
Soon, Gu Ningzi ended the video because of work, and Chi Nuan fell on the sofa, blindfolded.
The next day approaching noon, Chi Nuan, who had calculated the jet lag, took the initiative to message Gu Ningzi: “Are you asleep?”
Gu Ningzi: “No.”
Chi Nuan: “Do you listen to the story?”
After sending these five words, Chi Nuan stared at the screen without blinking. Gu Ningzi’s reply was to directly dial the voice call.
Chi Nuan said happily, “Which one do you want to hear?”
She read the name of the story to the catalog, and Gu Ningzi said, “Start from the beginning.”
Chi Nuan finished reading “The Frog Prince” in a soft voice, and there was no sound on the phone. Chi Nuan tentatively said, “Gu Ningzi?”
Gu Ningzi said slowly: “Go on.”
Chi Nuan turned a page. After reading the second story, Gu Ningzi said, “Next.”
“…” Chi Nuan continued to flip back.
Little Wutong leaned over and listened with gusto, until the fifth story “The Wolf and the Seven Little Goats” was finished, Chi Nuan pricked up his ears again to listen to the voice on the phone.
Little Wutong leaned in Chi Nuan’s ear: “Mom, the big bad wolf is so bad, I fooled the lamb into eating it.”
Gu Ningzi chuckled in Chi Nuan’s ear against the other side of the phone.
“…Is it useless? Still can’t sleep?” Chi Nuan was disappointed that she could not help Gu Ningzi.
Gu Ningzi: “I haven’t slept yet, I’m outside.”
Chi Nuan: “…”
? ? ? So why let her read the story? ? ?
Gu Ningzi seemed to be able to guess what Chi Nuan was thinking, if there was a seemingly non-existent laugh: “You have a nice voice.”
The ears continued to heat up, and in a short while, the cheeks also burned red.
The next morning, He Zhen sent a message: “We ordered flowers for you, Happy Birthday~~”
Chi Nuan immediately said, “Thank you.”
He Zhen: “Don’t forget to thank BOSS, [wink]”
The flower shop and Chi Nuan determined the time to send the flowers. At noon, the flowers arrived. Little Indus struggled to hold the bouquet: “Mom… Mom, this is so… big!”
Chi Nuan took out the card inside, and the signature was “Spider”.
Yingguang patted the card and passed it to Gu Ningzi: “Thank you BOSS for the flower, I like it very much.”
Gu Ningzi returned her a screenshot of the flight information.
! ! !
Chi Nuan looked again and again, and repeatedly confirmed that Gu Ningzi had scheduled a flight back to Yuncheng in a week.
There is nothing that makes her happier than Gu Ningzi’s coming back. Compared to a huge bouquet of flowers, this is the birthday gift she wants more.
From that day on, Chi Nuan was counting down, but I was waiting for He Zhen to say that BOSS’s scheduled flight was cancelled. Chi Nuan asked her if the new time was confirmed. He Zhen said: “She has a temporary private trip. No, if you return to Cloud City, you should be notified in advance.”
The short winter vacation ended in an instant. On the first day of school, Chi Nuan received a call from Xiao Pan on the way to send Xiao Wutong to school.
Xiaopan still stayed at that school for an internship this semester. In order to have a good relationship with other teachers, I invite everyone to dinner.
“Sister Chi, although you won’t come to work anymore, but I have been in school for so long, you have always cared for me the most…”
Chi Nuan knew about this meal, other teachers in the office would also go, but Xiao Pan spoke, and she couldn’t refuse her.
Dinner was set at a high-end restaurant not far from the elementary school. Chi Nuan took the elevator up. Xiao Wutong’s tutor Zhao, teacher suddenly contacted her: “Mother Chi Zheng, are you asking a friend to pick up Chi Zheng today? “
The signal in the elevator was not very good, so Chi Nuan hurriedly said, “Is Chi Zheng still there? Teacher Zhao, I didn’t ask anyone to pick him up for me.”
While talking, he had pressed the nearest floor button and squeezed out of the elevator.
“Still still,” Teacher Zhao said repeatedly, “I heard Chi Zheng call her Aunt Gu.”
Chi Nuan: “…”
Teacher Zhao: “Wait a moment…”
A few seconds later.
“It’s me.” Teacher Zhao’s voice in the receiver changed to Gu Ningzi.
Chi Nuan saw herself reflected on the elevator door. Because she was hit by a huge surprise, she looked stupid.
“You’re back…” she said.
Gu Ningzi: “Yeah.”
“Then I’ll be…” Chi Nuan wanted to say I’ll go there immediately, but when she turned around, she was stunned: “…tonight there will be a meal, and it was the teacher from the school who invited me to dinner.”
Gu Ningzi: “Listen to Xiao Wutong. You don’t need to rush over.”
The mobile phone was passed to Teacher Zhao again, and Teacher Zhao said: “Mother Chi Zheng, then let your friend pick up Chi Zheng?”
Chi Nuan: “Okay, trouble Teacher Zhao.”
After hanging up the phone, Chi Nuan was still excited and felt untrue. She entered the box reserved by Xiaopan and saw the familiar faces before she recovered her calm.
Although there was no time for Xiaopan to make an appointment with her, because everyone else came directly after work, they arrived very early and a table of people waited for her.
“Sorry, I’m late.” Chi Nuan said to Xiao Pan.
“It’s not too late.” Xiao Pan happily led her to the seat reserved in advance, but Wang Lili said: “Oh, our busy people have finally arrived.”
This kind of joke is said by Wang Lili, adding a bit of provocative meaning for no reason. Chi Nuan didn’t care about her, smiled at the embarrassed little Pan, and took a seat.
Wang Lili took a boring sip of her drink.
At the dinner, they talked about the school, complained to other group colleagues, and asked Xiao Pan when to bring her boyfriend to everyone to see… Chi Nuan was just absent-minded.
Gu Ningzi sent a short video. The little phoenix tree in the video was digging for desserts, and said vaguely: “…When my mother has time to pick me up early, she often takes me to eat,…it’s cold, there are roasted sweet potatoes and fried chestnuts. , It’s the ice cream when it’s hot… it’s all delicious, I like my mother the most.”
After reading it outside the box, Chi Nuan asked Gu Ningzi, “Is he good?”
Gu Ningzi answered the wrong question: “I seem to have heard similar words somewhere.”
…It’s me, I told you. When I was as old as the little phoenix tree, my brother also spoiled me like that.
Gu Ningzi, during the years when you were absent, my brother was gone. …Will your lost memories come back?
The new message popped out. This time it was voice. Little Wutong’s voice: “Mom, where are you? Aunt Gu and I will pick you up in a while.”
After dinner, the others switched to sing K. Everyone went downstairs together. Chi Nuan stopped participating. Xiao Pan said, “Sister Chi, I’m already very happy to be able to come to eat. You have to take your children and go home quickly.”
After leaving the restaurant, Gu Ningzi had arrived. Little Indus leaned on the rear window, and when he saw Chi Nuan show up, he raised his neck and said excitedly: “Mom! Mom, we are here!”
Chi Nuan said “goodbye” to everyone, opened the passenger’s door, and said to Gu Ningzi, “I’ve been driving, so I stopped in front.”
Gu Ningzi turned her head to look at her: “Come up.”
Chi Nuan: “Okay.”
The rear window glass rose up, and the little phoenix tree obediently fastened the seat belt.
Chi Nuan: “Assistant He didn’t say when you will be back. I thought I would have to wait for a long time. I didn’t expect it to be so soon.”
As the car drove away from this area, Gu Ningzi smiled, “You really love work.”
I miss you. Chi Nuan didn’t speak, Xiao Wutong asked her in the back seat: “Mom, do you know the lighthouse jellyfish?”
“My classmates told me that they won’t grow old and won’t die. Isn’t it amazing?”
It was also the first time Chi Nuan heard that after searching on his mobile phone, he explained the principle of immortality of the lighthouse jellyfish to Xiao Wutong.
“Aunt Gu told me the same.” Little Wutong’s voice became smaller: “If only we humans could do this…”
Chi Nuan looked over, Xiao Wutong lowered his head and grabbed his trouser tube.
The mobile phone information prompt sounded one after another.
Wang Lili: “Seriously, you were indeed taken care of by Mr. Ji, right?”
Wang Lili: “With this capital, what are you still working for? Spend some time to please Mr. Ji. Even if you can’t get right, you can make a fortune while you are young.”
Wang Lili: “Do you think that being a teacher can earn you a lot of hard work? It’s a bad reputation to be a Saner, but it’s not a big deal. In today’s society, you just laugh at the poor and not at the prostitution!”
Chi Nuan held the phone and took a deep breath of anger. Gu Ningzi noticed her abnormality and glanced at her.
“Wang Lili, you like to make rumors and make troubles so much. You must be very tired of living.” Chi Nuan entered this message, sent it, and then directly blacked Wang Lili.
There are so many things that require her effort in this world, and she can no longer waste time on a person who is full of malice towards herself.
After calming down, Chi Nuan turned around and comforted the little Wutong: “Wait for mother to have time, take you to the aquarium to see the jellyfish, okay?”
Little Sycamore: “Mom.”
Chi Nuan: “Huh?”
Little Indus: “Aunt Gu also said to take me to see the jellyfish. Let the three of us go together.”
Chi Nuan watched Gu Ningzi, the light and shadow changed, Gu Ningzi’s side face in driving completely overlapped with the memory in her memory. It seems that there is no difference between these six years, and each other has not experienced any hardships. Chi Nuan endured the soreness of choking his nose, and tried to pull a smile: “Okay.”
