Who wants to be a male model after being reborn? I want to be a male god.

Chapter 277 Reunion

Today was the happiest meal Gu Xingruo had ever had at home.

Usually she was the only one at the huge dining table, and most of the time she didn't even eat at the table.

But now it’s different, the person she loves is sitting next to her, eating with her.

But Cao Yanan must not hear this.

Because she was the one who had always been sitting at this table with Gu Xingruo to eat.

Xu Wen was eating while replying to work messages on his phone.

I have to say that the nanny Gu Hong hired was very capable and he could find no fault with any of the dishes.

Even the eldest lady's stir-fried dried tofu with hot peppers was surprisingly delicious.

The nanny just finished serving the food and went back without saying a word.

Xu Wen was glad that these nannies were not in the same setting as Chen Tianbao, otherwise they would definitely say: "This is the first time that the young lady has brought someone back. The young lady hasn't laughed so happily for a long time."

The domineering president literature is indeed misleading to young people.

After dinner, Xu Wen took a short rest and then packed up to leave.

Gu Xingruo wanted to keep him, wanted him to stay, but she also knew that now was not the time.

After Xu Wenwen and she had finished their meal, she was already looking forward to sleeping in the same bed with them.

The span is a little bit large.

Gu Xingruo suddenly felt that Xu Wen’s tutoring job seemed pretty good.

His workplace was right next to her house, and there would be plenty of opportunities for them to come here for dinner in the future.

Xu Wen didn't drive today, and Gu Xingruo offered to drive him home, but was rejected.

She gave in and said that he could just drive the car back home, as there were several cars in the garage downstairs.

However, Xu Wen finally took a taxi back as he thought it was more convenient this way.

Gu Xingruo was reluctant, but she had no choice but to let him go.

She kept telling herself that the more critical the moment, the less anxious she should be, because victory was just around the corner and she had to stay calm.

When Xu Wen got into the taxi, he finally felt relaxed. He had been busy all day on his first day of work after New Year's Eve.

Although the work is hard, he doesn't feel tired at all. On the contrary, he is full of energy.

After all, today was fruitful.

This is probably the difference between working for others and working for yourself.

Xu Wen prepared to close his eyes and rest for a while, and then he could go home after a good sleep.

But the phone didn't seem to want him to rest. As soon as he closed his eyes, Apple's default ringtone rang.

He picked up the phone, only to find that it was someone who surprised him greatly.

Natsumi.

The two haven't seen each other for a long time since they last met in the hospital.

Xu Wen wanted to call and ask about Xia Ning's current situation, but he didn't know how to start. Plus, it was the Chinese New Year, so he kept putting it off until now.

On this day of reunion, it is indeed not appropriate for Xu Wen to call Xia Hai's family.

Now that the other party called him, he picked up the phone immediately.

"Hello, Uncle Xia." He was the first to greet.

Xia Hai did not get straight to the point, but asked: "I heard that you have already started working, how is it? Are you busy these two days?"

As soon as Xu Wen heard it, he knew that he wanted to find him for something.

Even if he is busy now, he will say: "I am not busy. It is not the New Year just passed. There is nothing to do."

"Yeah." Xia Hai on the other end of the phone was silent for a while.

Xu Wen didn't say anything either, but waited silently for him to speak.

After a long while, he said, "The police said they need you to cooperate and take another statement."

"Okay." Xu Wen agreed without even thinking about it.

If that was the only thing, Xia Hai should hang up the phone now.

But he didn't say anything and didn't hang up. There was only constant noise in the receiver.

After a long time, a long sigh came from the other end of the phone.

"Ningning said she wanted to see you again, otherwise she would not cooperate with the treatment. I hope..." Xia Hai couldn't continue speaking halfway.

He is feeling very conflicted now, he knows it is his daughter who has hurt others, so it is normal for others not to want to see him.

But he also felt a little resentful. He wished his daughter had never met the boy on the other end of the phone.

Xia Hai now wants Xu Wen to come and see Ningning, but he also doesn't want him to come and the two of them to contact each other again.

With multiple conflicting emotions, he was unable to speak for a while.

"I will go see her." Xu Wen agreed without waiting for Xia Hai to say anything else.

This helped the troubled father to make a decision.

Xia Hai sighed again: "Sorry to trouble you."

"It's okay." Xu Wen replied.

After confirming the time and place, the two hung up the phone.

Xu Wen didn't want to sleep. He leaned on the back seat of the taxi and looked out the window.

There was a bright moon in the sky. A semicircular moon was hanging high in the sky, and the clouds around it were shining brightly.

Xu Wen recalled that the moonlight in the sky had always been so bright during many times in the past when it came to Xia Ning.

Once upon a time, they didn't look at the moonlight, they only had each other in their eyes.

But now Xu Wen was the only one left, looking up at the high moon.

Xia Ning is like white moonlight, she is beautiful and gentle, and was admired by many people when she was in school.

But now Bai Yueguang also revealed a dangerous side.

She doesn't want to always be that beautiful and gentle person, she also has someone in her heart that she madly wants to possess.

According to legend, there is a lonely Chang'e in the Moon Palace. In some versions of the legend, she is imprisoned there.

Xu Wen didn't want Xia Ning to be imprisoned in her own paranoia forever, like Chang'e imprisoned on the moon.

He hopes that she will be freer in the future.

One day you will be able to break free from the cage that has been holding you back.

Xu Wen didn't know when he fell asleep. He probably closed his eyes while looking at the moon.

When he came to his senses, the taxi driver had already told him that they had arrived at their destination.

Xu Wen paid the money and got out of the taxi.

He took one last look at the moon and turned back into the building.

Tomorrow he plans to tell Xia Ning that the moon was beautiful last night, just like the one they had seen in the past.

The next day Xu Wen got up very early.

Instead of going to the studio, he drove straight to the police station.

No matter what, we have to get this done first.

As soon as he entered the police station, Xu Wen saw Xia Ning's father who had been waiting there.

He always felt that Xia Hai now seemed a little older than he was a year ago.

Maybe there are just too many troubles to deal with lately.

His brows seemed to be covered with a dark cloud, which only briefly dissipated when he saw Xu Wen.

"You're here." Xia Hai stood up and greeted him.

Xu Wen also responded politely.

His main task today was to take a statement. Xia Hai did not say anything to him in advance, but directly asked him to follow the police.

But there was no need for him to remind her of anything. Xu Wen would of course say everything in the way that was most beneficial to Xia Ning.

Try to get a suspended sentence if possible, and don’t let him spend a single day in jail.

The police first confirmed the letter of apology with him, and then confirmed with him what exactly happened in the case.

Although the police have solid evidence, Xu Wen also has his own story.

He said Xia Ning wanted to stay with him for a while because she was out of control, and that she didn't really want to hurt him.

"She didn't actually have any ill intentions, she was just a little extreme emotionally and did those things on impulse. She didn't use violence against me at the time and she even took care of me. She just wanted me to stay and didn't really mean to hurt me." Xu Wen repeated the contents of the mediation letter.

The policeman didn't seem surprised by what he said and just kept writing it down on paper.

"We had a good relationship before. She has always been a very gentle and delicate person. Maybe because she cared too much about me, she lost her mind a little. I don't think she wanted to hurt me on purpose, but she was too afraid of losing me." Xu Wen continued to emphasize the feelings between the two.

Don’t worry about whether it’s useful or not, just say it first.

Of course, the most important thing is that no one was hurt in this incident.

He remembered that Xia Ning once told him that how long a person would be sentenced depended on the extent of his social harm.

"Actually, I didn't suffer any harm during that period of time. Although it was indeed inconvenient for me to leave at the moment, she didn't do anything. I think she just needed to calm down and didn't want to hurt me." Xu Wen said seriously.

For him, "imprisonment" also becomes "it is inconvenient to leave for the time being". This is probably the charm of language.

Xu Wen had said everything he needed to say. In the end, he could only hope that the police would be lenient towards Xia Ning.

Then he pretended to be ignorant of the law and said that this was not a crime but just a small conflict between lovers.

In short, he will never pursue it.

The police repeatedly asked Xu Wen whether he would pursue this matter, but the answer was always no.

The record was quickly completed and Xu Wen walked out.

As soon as he saw Xia Hai, the elder bowed to him again: "Thank you."

Xu Wen quickly helped him up.

He didn't want to dwell on it anymore, so he asked directly, "Where is Ningning? Let's go find her directly."

Xu Wen came here today for two important things. The first was to take notes, and the second was to visit Xia Ning.

When he mentioned his daughter, Xia Hai sighed again: "She is still in the detention center."

"Why is he still here? Hasn't he been released on bail?" Xu Wen was a little confused.

He has recently learned a new term, "bail pending trial", which can be applied for by prisoners in special circumstances or who do not pose much threat to society while being detained by the police.

And even if Xia Ning doesn't meet any of the conditions.

Given Xia Hai's identity, it would probably be easy to get him released on bail.

Before knowing this term, Xu Wen thought that Xia Ning would spend the New Year in the detention center, and he felt quite sad at the time.

But after knowing this, his heart suddenly relaxed.

Now I tell him that Xia Ning really spent the New Year in the detention center.

"Your Aunt He and I also hope that she will come out, but she herself doesn't want to come out." Xia Hai sighed again.

He has lost count of how many times he has sighed recently; it seems like he is always sighing.

Xu Wen didn't know what to say now, and the two of them fell into silence.

It wasn't until they got into a car that he asked again, "How long will Ningning be sentenced to?"

This is a very sensitive question, but he still wants to ask it.

Xia Hai didn't drive his own car today, but sat in Xu Wen's car to give him directions.

He did not answer the question, but only told him how to get to the detention center.

As Xia Hai was talking, Xu Wen became familiar with the place, because his stepfather had also stayed there.

After the vehicle was driving smoothly on the road, the two men did not say a word and remained silent.

After a long while, Xia Hai finally spoke: "If I say Ningning will not go to jail, will you blame me?"

Xu Wen did not react to this. He just said calmly: "My transcript and letter of apology both hope that she can be sentenced to probation and not go to prison. I hope to get the best result."

"No, you didn't understand what I meant. What I meant was that I don't want Ningning to be sentenced, so..." Xia Hai was silent again.

But this time, even if he didn't say anything, Xu Wen understood what he meant.

Now it is 2012, and something happened this year that even ordinary people like him know about.

"Tiger Hunting Operation".

A few years later, not only did the momentum not abate, it even intensified. At least on the surface, many luxury hotels went bankrupt because of this kind of thing, and those that did not go bankrupt chose to transform themselves into affordable hotels.

Xu Wen recalled the first day he woke up in the hospital, Xia Hai and Gu Hong appeared together.

He couldn't say it directly, so he could only remind him: "Uncle Xia, some things cannot be turned back once they are done, and they won't let you turn back either."

If it was in the 2012s, this would be easy to deal with, but it is already .

"Xu Wen, you are the top scholar in Jiang Province and you are a good student. You must know "Strategies of the Warring States". I wonder if you can remember this passage?" Xia Hai asked calmly.

He did not wait for the other party to respond, and continued: "Parents who love their children will plan for them in the long run."

Xia Hai's words were vague, but the allusions he quoted already made his attitude clear.

"Yeah, I know." Xu Wen nodded.

He knew it was too late to say anything now, as the father had already decided to exchange his own future for his child's.

"I know what I'm doing. Uncle just hopes you don't blame me. No matter what difficulties you encounter in the future, you can come to me. You can ask for any compensation you want. Our family owes you this." Xia Hai raised his head and sighed again.

"I won't blame you." Xu Wen knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade her, it would be useless.

The two remained silent on the way thereafter.

After Xu Wen parked the car, the two of them walked into the detention center together.

He was in a good mood every time he came here before, because his cheap father was finally caught, and there was finally good news in his gloomy life.

But this time he felt heavy-hearted because the person he loved was imprisoned here.

After a series of complicated examinations, Xu Wen successfully entered the visiting room of the detention center.

According to regulations, he is not Xia Ning's family member and cannot meet her at this stage.

But Xia Hai arranged a position for him as a legal assistant, and the people in the detention center turned a blind eye and he was allowed in.

Xu Wen didn't have to wait long before the familiar figure finally appeared before him.

On the other side of the glass window, Xia Ning walked slowly forward.

At first she had a dull expression, but when she saw Xu Wen, her face was blank. She even thought it was fake and rubbed her eyes.

When she was sure that everything was real, her first reaction was to dodge, but she quickly turned her head away.

In just a moment, two lines of tears flowed down her cheeks.

She forced a smile on her face, but her lips kept trembling.

Xia Ning tried to wipe away her tears, but they kept flowing.

Xia Hai, who was standing by, felt very distressed when he saw his daughter in front of him.

He reminded: "Ningning, you wanted to see Xu Wen, I brought him to you."
