"You are bullied because of me, so it's only natural that I help you. You don't need to thank me."
"I know, classmate Gu Jixing, you are a good person. If you think so, that's for your own good.
But in fact, many classmates knew that we were being bullied, but no one came forward.
It was you who stood up first to protect me and sought justice for other students.
So, I like you, and I don’t know how long this love will last, but I want you to know it!”
After saying that, the girl ran away with a blushing face.
Gu Jixing looked at the girl's back and lowered his head slightly.
He was a little confused. It turned out that in the eyes of some people, he was also a good person.
When thinking of this, Gu Jixing thought of Zuo Li.
He knew that in Zuo Li's mind, he was a bad boy.
After Miao Dongmei came to the Gu family that time, he could clearly feel that Zuo Li's attitude towards him had become much colder.
More often than not, it's just a superficial relationship.
Unlike before, I was very serious about caring about him in all the things I did.
Gu Jixing curled his lips. If that's the case, let him think he is a bad person.
But, why do I still feel a little uncomfortable?
"Who is there? Why don't you come out?" Gu Jixing said coldly, without looking back.
Therefore, he did not know that the person standing not far away was Zuo Li.
He took a step closer and said, "Why didn't you explain that day? Why didn't you explain? Let me misunderstand you. Doesn't it mean that my opinion is not important at all in your mind?"
But aren’t we relatives? Even if you don’t admit it, I will be your relative from now on!
Gu Jixing, how long are you going to keep making trouble? Is it possible that you won't feel aggrieved if you are misunderstood?"
Gu Jixing was a little dazed when he heard Zuo Li's voice.
He didn't expect that just when he thought about it, Zuo Li appeared.
He turned around and saw Zuo Li standing next to him.
He frowned, "Was it you just now? You heard it all."
Zuo Li: "I walked here accidentally and heard it accidentally. But if it wasn't accidental, when would you explain it to me?"
"Why should I explain to you?"
Gu Jixing's cold words made Zuo Li very angry and almost burst into tears.
"But I misunderstood you. Don't you feel sad that I misunderstood you?"
Gu Jixing wanted to say that he didn't care, so how could he be sad?
But I don’t know why, this sentence just didn’t come out.
Zuo Li took his arm and said, "Gu Jixing, I will not let you regard me as your mother. I have never thought about occupying anyone or replacing someone's position!
But you have to know that we will be relatives in the future, and we will be relatives for a long, long time, so we cannot have such misunderstandings, you know?
Do you know how much I feel guilty and uncomfortable now? I thought you were a bad boy, but what happened?"
Zuo Li was really a little angry this time. She didn't know whether she was angry with herself or Gu Jixing.
After Miao Dongmei came home that time, he could obviously explain it.
As long as he explains, Zuo Li will believe him.
There is no explanation!
For a period of time afterwards, Zuo Li meaningfully avoided Gu Jixing.
However, now that she knew the truth, she felt very uncomfortable.
She misunderstood a good boy!
Gu Jixing didn't want to see Zuo Li cry, "But you're right, if it weren't for me, they wouldn't have been bullied by Miao Dongmei.
So the things I did after that were just to make up for the damage, not a good thing at all."
Zuo Li: "Stop quibbling. Did you hear what that girl said just now? For them, you are their beam of light.
You have helped them, and it will leave a very good impression on them in their future lives. Their impression of school is no longer the endless violence and homework, but also you, do you understand?"
Zuo Li has seen a lot of school violence in modern times, and she understands the harm it can cause to a child.
So I understand more clearly how much influence Gu Jixing's behavior has on these girls.
"I just do it casually. I don't want to get their love or gratitude. I don't care what happens to them in the future."
"But there are people who care, and I care."
Zuo Li held his arm tightly and said, "Gu Jixing, let's make peace. Let's make a truce in the future. I won't replace your mother. I just want to join this family and be your relative."
Aren’t there many kinds of relatives? They don’t have to be mothers, don’t you think so?”
Gu Jixing didn't speak for a long time, just looking at Zuo Li with his eyes.
His eyes were very clear, as if he could see through everything in this world.
"Can."
When Zuo Li heard this, his eyes widened.
She was already prepared for Gu Jixing to reject her.
But I didn’t expect to get such an answer!
This made her laugh, and this time she was really satisfied.
"But it's just a truce. I won't quarrel with you again or embarrass you, but it doesn't mean I accept you."
Gu Jixing awkwardly pretended to be indifferent.
Zuo Li chuckled and said: "Of course, we will have a process of getting along slowly. I believe that one day you will accept me as your relative."
Gu Jixing pursed his lips, looked at Zuo Li's hand holding his arm, and thought:
In fact, he didn't know when, he had already accepted Zuo Li as his relative.
She has slowly integrated into the Gu family, and because of her mediation, this family seems to be a family.
Maybe this is what marriage means to people.
After reconciling with Gu Jixing, Gu Jixing probably felt a little awkward. After saying that he had something to do, he left first.
Soon, Zuo Li was the only one left again.
Zuo Li was a little excited because she talked to Gu Jixing.
She is still a little confused until now.
"Why did he suddenly agree? I thought he would refuse. He still seems to hate me so much. No, this guy is cold-faced and warm-hearted. He is indeed a good boy!"
Zuo Li was very happy, as all the gloom in his mood during this period was gone.
But when he saw Gu Yuanzheng sitting under a tree from a distance, with a book on his lap and looking at the people on the basketball court not far away, Zuo Li's mood suddenly fell to the bottom again.
.
She walked over and sat next to Gu Yuanzheng, ""Your health will get better, and you will be able to play basketball like them in the future."
"I don't like playing basketball." Gu Yuanzheng was not confused as to why Zuo Li suddenly appeared next to him.
Just withdrew his eyes and looked at the book on his lap again,
But I didn’t turn the page for a long time.
Zuo Li didn't say anything, and simply stayed here to accompany him silently. It was almost time for school to end anyway.
