Chapter 54 Believe
Author: Emei Swordsman
Not only did they all hear it, but they also heard it very clearly. As soon as Gu Yunji arrived at Xu Chengyu's residence, he heard the argument between Xu Shuhua and Fang Zigui in the inner courtyard.
He was angry at Fang Zigui's shamelessness and offense, and wanted to just rush in, but he was afraid that not only could he fail to stop him, but Fang Zigui would also knock her down and beat her up, falsely accusing Xu Shuhua of taking the initiative and ruining her reputation. He had no choice but to raise his voice outside.
Pretending to meet the teacher and creating the illusion that Xu Chengyu was back, he successfully scared Fang Zigui away.
Hearing Xu Shuhua's inquiry at this time, Gu Yunji didn't want to embarrass her, so he lied without changing his expression: "What did you hear? I just arrived, and just now I saw the door of the courtyard seemed to move. I thought it was the teacher who came back.
, I didn’t expect that I was wrong.”
This reason was too far-fetched. Seeing that Gu Yunji's eyes were wandering, and it was obvious that he was not telling the truth, Xu Shuhua smiled miserably and said, "You don't have to comfort me, I know you heard it, otherwise there would be no such coincidence." She paused, and her voice became louder.
Se, "I made you laugh, but thank you anyway."
Xu Shuhua's nose was slightly red, her eyes were a little moist, and the smile on her face could no longer be maintained. She held on to the last bit of dignity and turned her back to prevent Gu Yunji from seeing her gaffe. As soon as she recalled the scene just now, she felt sad in her heart.
I was so ashamed and hateful that even the hosta in my sleeve felt like it was burning. I could almost resist the urge in my heart to smash it to pieces.
In his impression, Xu Shuhua had always been gentle and confident, but now he was as sensitive and fragile as Liuli. Looking at her thin back, Gu Yunji felt pity in his heart and didn't know what to say to comfort her. He hesitated for a while.
Said: "Miss Xu..."
Xu Shuhua sniffed and pretended to be relaxed: "I have actually seen that Fang Zigui had bad intentions, but I couldn't help it. I was afraid that speaking out rashly would affect the friendship between father and Uncle Fang for so many years, so I always gave in.
endure."
"Around the Qingming Festival, I heard that his family was proposing a marriage for him. I thought he should let it go this time. Unexpectedly, he still refused to give up. He shamelessly came to the door to pester me while my father was away." Speaking of this,
Her voice was trembling, and her eyes were full of unwillingness and resentment.
Gu Yunji raised his head in disbelief: "He even asked for a kiss?"
Xu Shuhua turned around and said with a forced smile: "Yes, he already proposed a kiss. I didn't expect him to be so shameless. If it weren't for you today, I would..."
"No!" before she could finish speaking, Gu Yunji said first.
Gu Yunji took a deep breath and said slowly: "I have always felt that Miss Xu is a confident and generous person. She is not only full of talents, but also has good conduct. She treats others with warmth and warmth. She has never looked down on herself."
"Miss Xu is a person with a clear breeze and a clear moon, so how could she be contaminated by the mundane world on earth and the mud in the pond like Fang Zigui? Even if something really happened today, Miss Xu, please believe that you are not the one who is dirty.
But him."
The young man's tone was firm, as if he was talking about the most reasonable thing in the world. Looking at his clear and sincere eyes, Xu Shuhua was stunned for a moment.
When they first met, she thought it was her father who had come back, so she went out to open the door rashly. When she saw that he was looking at him intently and speaking politely, she thought he was a polite gentleman. Later, when they got along with him every day, he was gentle and humble, and every time
There was no evil thought in her eyes, and she was exactly the same as she was on the outside. When giving gifts that day, he avoided all ambiguous choices, which showed that he was thoughtful and considerate.
Today, he praised her as a gentle breeze and jade lotus, as if his eyes never stayed on her skin, but penetrated the flesh and blood, staring at her heart. He was really different from others.
Under the setting sun, the soft sunlight filtered through the window lattice and fell on the smooth stone steps, reflecting spots of light. Xu Shuhua suddenly felt a sense of lightness, and the layers of cocoons that had been wrapped around him since childhood showed signs of loosening, revealing a
The small gap allows her to stretch out the edges that have not been completely smoothed. This is the first time someone has evaluated her in this way, not by the standards of a woman, but by the standards of a human being.
After a while, Xu Shuhua came back to his senses, smiled at him, and said softly: "Okay, I believe you."
Gu Yunji saw that she kept her sleeves rolled up, as if she was hiding something, and guessed that the hosta given by Fang Zigui might be in her hand, so he hesitated for a while and said, "If Miss Xu really believes me, you can put the hosta into her hands."
Leave it to me and I'll handle it."
"Leave it to you?" Xu Shuhua didn't expect him to say that, and was a little stunned, "What are you going to do with it? Give it back to him?"
For her, this hosta is indeed a hot potato, and she cannot throw it away or keep it. If she keeps it, Fang Zi will definitely use it to make a fuss after her death, to show that the ambiguous relationship between the two is extraordinary. The physical evidence is here,
When the time comes, Xu Shuhua will have to admit it even if he doesn’t admit it.
If it was thrown out, it might be picked up by someone passing by, which would cause even more trouble in the future. Although Xu Shuhua believed in Gu Yunji's character and knew that he would not take this opportunity to leave the hairpin as a handle, she was still not sure what the other party would do.
How to deal with it.
"Of course I won't just give it back to him like this." Gu Yunji looked confident, "As for how to deal with it, I can't tell you yet, but don't worry, Miss Xu, I will do it very appropriately so that Fang Zigui will not dare to provoke you again in the future.
.”
Looking at Gu Yunji's determined and sincere eyes, Xu Shuhua was inexplicably convinced by him, so he took out the hosta from his sleeve and handed it to his hand: "Okay, then I'll trouble Mr. Gu."
The hosta was pure white, with a clear texture, and looked valuable. When Gu Yunji stretched out his hand to take it, he could still feel the residual body temperature on it. He shrank his fingers uncomfortably, suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, and put away the hairpin as usual.
Easy to put away.
The two of them were separated by a few steps and had spoken a lot without realizing it. Although the outer courtyard was accessible from all sides and was not as secluded as the inner courtyard, they were still unmarried. The elder Xu Chengyu was not here, and Gu Yunji could not stay for long.
So he stood up and said goodbye:
"It's getting late, so I'll leave first. Today's homework is on the desk over there. When the teacher comes back, I'll ask Miss Xu for help."
Xu Shuhua agreed and blessed him, then stood in the yard and watched his figure go away.
After walking out of Xu Chengyu's house, Gu Yunji breathed a long sigh of relief. What had happened just now still made it difficult for him to calm down. When he was distracted for a moment, Xu Shuhua's embarrassed and stubborn expression appeared in his mind, making him feel that his heart was broken.
As if being pulled into a ball.
"Fang Zigui..." Gu Yunji sneered in his heart, "Just wait for me..."
When he was a disciple before, the other party made things difficult for him. Gu Yunji was too lazy to care about it at that time. He didn't expect that Fang Zigui would shamelessly pester Xu Shuhua and threaten her verbally even after they had already discussed marriage. It was really shameless and despicable.
.
To blackmail Xu Shuhua with the reputation of a woman? Oh, then I will let you have a taste of being shameless in front of others!
