Chapter 19
Lu Lin turned around and looked at Gu Moran, looking at her big eyes without eye sockets and her clenched little hands. He did not avoid Su Li's presence at all, and said nervously: "If I don't show up,
If so, are you going to start a fight with them?"
Gu Moran loosened his clenched fists, looked at Lu Lin's handsome face, and suppressed the emotions that were about to explode just now.
Su Li was completely stunned. Lu Lin's sudden appearance was enough to shock her. He actually spoke to Gu Moran in this tone, as if he was still familiar with it.
Su Li had no idea about Gu Moran's friendship with Lu Lin, and now her mind was full of doubts.
Gu Moran put on his black-rimmed glasses again, thinking that Su Li was still beside him and could no longer talk like when he was alone with him, so he said solemnly: "How is it possible, I can't beat them, and I don't dare.
"
Gu Mo Ran spoke in a very low voice, like a fly.
Lu Lin was a little confused, but after remembering that there was a girl standing next to him, Lu Lin suddenly understood something. He had learned before that Gu Moran's image in school was that of an honest girl.
However, Lu Lin had no intention of exposing Gu Moran's lie. He changed the subject and asked her with concern: "Are you okay?"
Gu Moran knew what Lu Lin was referring to, so she pretended not to care at all and responded: "It's okay. It's not the first time I've been ridiculed by others."
Gu Moran thought that Su Li was listening to their conversation, and she deliberately added: "I took off my glasses just now because I was afraid that they would beat us. It's OK to get beaten, but we can't break the glasses."
Lu Lin almost couldn't help laughing. How could she say such funny things in such a normal tone.
"It's okay. It's getting dark early now. Remember to go home early." After Lu Lin finished speaking, he didn't stay any longer and turned around and left without waiting for their response.
After Lu Lin disappeared from their sight, Su Li looked at Gu Moran. Su Li didn't know how to comfort her. He felt that Lu Lin had already asked about it just now and didn't mention this topic again.
Su Li asked her gossiping: "Mo Ran, when did you become so familiar with Lu Lin?"
Lu Lin was described by other classmates as a boy who often fought and was difficult to get in touch with. His personality and appearance were completely opposite to his, but no one would believe that the two of them could get in touch and become friends.
Things have developed to this point, and Gu Moran has no intention of hiding it from Su Li anymore. She raised her hand to hold the frame of the mirror, and then confessed everything: "I have been friends with Lu Lin for a long time, and it was only when you warned me to stay away.
He started it that day."
Su Li said "Ah?" in disbelief.
Gu Moran had already guessed that Su Li couldn't accept the news, so he told a little lie: "The reason why I made friends with Lu Lin also had to do with my parents. My mother and his mother are good friends, and he and I are across the street.
In fact, after getting along with him for a long time, you will find that he is not very similar to the Lu Lin that others say. He is really nice."
Su Li thought of Lu Lin's ranking on the midterm exam list and completely believed Gu Moran's words. Su Li felt that maybe it was because he didn't know him well that he felt that Lu Lin was not a good person.
Although she accepted this fact, Su Li was still a little unhappy. She regarded Gu Mo Ran as her best friend, but Gu Mo Ran had hidden it from her for so long.
Su Li pretended to be very angry and deliberately curled his lips and said, "Then you can't hide it from me?"
–
When he was about to leave the school gate, Gu Moran completely coaxed Su Li, who was pretending to be angry, and after saying goodbye to Su Li, Gu Moran walked towards the stop sign.
There were quite a lot of students at the stop sign. Gu Moran glanced several times but couldn't find Lu Lin in the crowd. She thought Lu Lin had already taken the bus home.
But before two minutes had passed, Gu Moran saw Lu Lin running over in small steps, holding a very delicate packaging bag in his hand.
Lu Lin did not take the initiative to greet her when he came over, and Gu Moran was not sure whether Lu Lin saw him or not.
Gu Moran deliberately squeezed past Lu Lin and asked tentatively: "Didn't you see me just now?"
Lu Lin had no expression on his face and didn't speak.
Of course Gu Moran didn't believe that Lu Lin couldn't hear her when she was so close. She suddenly remembered what she had just said in front of Su Li. Lu Lin hadn't exposed herself yet. Could he be angry because of this?
Gu Moran continued to ask: "Are you angry with me?"
Lu Lin then turned his head and lowered his peach blossom eyes to look at her: "I'm not angry with you, I'm just angry about why those girls said that to you. I can't do anything."
Gu Moran was stunned when she heard Lu Lin's response. She never thought that Lu Lin was angry about this.
Immediately afterwards, Lu Lin handed over the exquisite packaging bag in his hand and said, "Look at yourself in the mirror more often. You are not ugly at all. Don't listen to their nonsense."
Gu Moran looked at what Lu Lin handed over, and her mind went blank. If it weren't for the bus approaching and a student asking her to give way, Gu Moran might have stood there and stared at it for a long time.
Gu Mo Ran stepped aside and raised his hand to take it, thanking him: "Thank you."
"You're welcome, hurry up and get in the car." Lu Lin saw that she still didn't move, so he urged her.
Gu Moran came back to her senses and raised her head to look at the bus. Only then did she realize that the stopped bus was the one going home. She hurriedly followed Lu Lin and got on the bus.
There were two empty seats left on the bus, but the distance was a bit far. Gu Moran originally wanted to sit in the back, but Lu Linbi passed by one step ahead of her, so Gu Moran had to sit in the single chair in front.
As soon as the bus started to move, Gu Moran curiously opened the packaging bag of the boutique. There was a large square box inside, which was very thick and didn't look like a makeup mirror at all.
Gu Moran took out the square box. Although he didn't recognize the brand, he had a hunch that it should be quite expensive.
Sure enough, when you open it, it's not a mirror, but an eyeshadow palette, but half of it is a mirror, which can be considered half a makeup mirror.
The remaining half is a few earth-colored eye shadow powders, and there is a small brush in the groove.
Is Lu Lin implying that she wears makeup to be beautiful?
No matter what his intentions were for buying it, Gu Moran was very happy. After all, with all the pocket money she had now, she couldn't afford cosmetics. It turned out that she only started working hard to become beautiful after going to college and working part-time to make some money.
Counterattack.
Gu Mo Ran put the eye shadow box back into the bag, then looked back to the back row. She simply wanted to see what Lu Lin was doing, but she met his peach blossom eyes directly.
Is it possible that he has been staring at me? Doesn't it mean that he also saw his behavior of observing the eye shadow box?
Thinking of this, Gu Moran was flustered for a few seconds, and her face became a little hot. She quickly turned her head and looked at the car window, and it took several minutes to calm down.
Gu Moran looked at the figure reflected on the car window. She had a sudden idea and raised her hands to tuck the hair on both sides of her face behind her ears. Looking at it again, she felt that her original face seemed to be a little thinner and not as good as when she first wore it.
So mellow.
It seems that we are getting closer and closer to counterattack and become beautiful.
After getting off the bus at the station, Gu Moran and Lu Lin walked side by side. It was not yet completely dark, and the street lights on the street were already on.
Gu Mo Ran clenched the bag of the boutique packaging bag and asked him curiously: "Why did you suddenly give me this?"
Lu Lin asked back: "Have you forgotten that today is your birthday?"
Gu Moran:…………
She really didn't know that today was her birthday, no, I should say she really didn't know that it was her original birthday.
When Gu Moran got home and put on her slippers, she thought her family would prepare a surprise for her, but it turned out that Gu's father hadn't come home from get off work yet and Gu's mother was cooking in the kitchen.
After Gu Moran said a few words to Gu's mother, she went back to the bedroom. She threw her schoolbag on the bed, then bent down and pressed the power button on the computer.
Gu Moran clicked on the calendar on the computer to check. The time now is October 30th. In terms of the Gregorian calendar, it is October 2nd. Her birthday is indeed October 2nd, but in real life, she has always lived
They are all lunar calendars.
Maybe the original person’s birthday really is today.
Gu Moran frowned slightly, she felt she still needed to confirm.
Gu Moran deliberately went to the kitchen and pretended to help Gu's mother wash the dishes. He first chatted with Gu's mother about studying. After chatting for a while, he changed the subject and asked: "Mom, has my birthday passed this year?"
Gu’s mother: “Didn’t your birthday pass early?”
Gu Moran's heart suddenly skipped a beat. All she could think about was the gift Lu Lin handed her and the words he said. How could it be such a coincidence...
"I haven't forgotten. I'll go back to the bedroom to do my homework." Gu Moran put the washed dishes on the chopping board, and then ran back to the bedroom in a panic.
Gu Moran logged into his original account. He originally wanted to ask Lu Lin why he said today was her birthday, but as soon as he logged in, he received a bunch of messages from Su Li.
Gu Moran clicked to check. What Su Li complained to her was that she was followed after getting off the bus. He was also a man wearing black clothes and covering his face very tightly. He was very tall. What did he look like, or was he?
Student, his face was covered so tightly that Su Li couldn't tell the difference at all.
Gu Moran didn't remember that there was such a plot in the current time period in the book, and she couldn't help but think of Cheng Luoluo.
In the original book, it was written that Luo Luo found a man to follow the heroine and wanted to molest her, but later the hero found out and secretly protected Su Li.
At that time, the misunderstanding between the male and female protagonists had reached a very serious level, and Su Li did not know that Gu Anze was protecting him.
Shouldn't these plots happen during the winter vacation? Why are they being brought forward?
Gu Moran first sent a message to comfort Su Li. She did not have Gu Anze's contact information, so she revealed the news to Pei Chengyuan and asked him to convey it to Gu Anze.
After the matter was settled, Gu Moran clicked on the chat interface with Lu Lin and entered: Today is not my birthday. Did you make a mistake?
Maybe Lu Lin didn't log in to his social media account. Gu Moran didn't even receive a message when Gu's mother called him to eat. He didn't receive a message when he came back after having a full meal. He didn't even wait until after ten o'clock to finish his homework...
Gu Moran was in agony. She asked Lu Lin this question to make sure. Although Gu Moran also knew that the chance that Lu Lin would be the same Lu Lin seven years ago was almost zero, she still couldn't help but have expectations.
Gu Moran went to take a hot bath again, and after returning to the bedroom, he finally received an unread message from Lu Lin.
