Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl
Chapter 355 The Price of Having Two Favors
Xue Rui nodded and smiled at Gu Qingshan. In Xue Rui's opinion, everything today was very unusual. With Gu Qingshan's shrewdness, he could definitely find the flaws in his story just now, but he did not ask about Lin Ruoxi. He even felt the care from his elders.
Is Gu Qingshan generous?
Absolutely not.
Arrogance is real...
If a person with this personality suddenly shows kindness to others, it means that he has done something wrong or needs help from others...
For example, if the girl had hurt him in the past, she would secretly compensate him.
When you need help from him, you will also show him kindness.
Did Gu Qingshan feel that he owed him something? Or did he need something from him?
This conclusion shocked Xue Rui. He would rather believe that Lao Gu took the wrong medicine today.
Xue Rui looked at the greasy chicken legs on the plate and felt more and more stressed the more he looked.
So, he put the chicken leg on Gu Muxue's plate:
"Mu Xue has been studying hard recently, so eat a chicken drumstick to replenish your energy."
The corners of Gu Muxue's mouth rose slightly, she knew that Xue Rui would definitely give it to her.
But what did Xue Rui mean?
Why is she working so hard?
Xue Rui has been to her house. Based on his understanding of Lin Ruoxi, he must know that Lin Ruoxi is the one who has suffered the most, so he asked her to pass the chicken leg on.
But she didn't care about the chicken leg, as she had originally planned to give it to Lin Ruoxi.
So, Gu Muxue put the chicken leg into Lin Ruoxi's bowl.
"Huh~" Xue Rui secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He was just testing Gu Muxue to see how magnanimous the little girl could be.
It seemed to be far beyond his expectations?
Gu Muxue was willing to give the chicken leg to Lin Ruoxi, which indirectly showed that the little girl had not made up his mind, and his dream of hugging one woman at a time still had a chance to come true...
Everyone at the table watched as a chicken leg passed through several hands and finally landed in Lin Ruoxi's bowl. However, Lin Ruoxi seemed to have no intention of eating it. She actually picked up the chicken leg and looked at it around the table.
Guo Ziyan's heart was pounding, he was the one sitting next to Lin Ruoxi!
Could it be that……
He subconsciously raised the bowl to take it.
Gu Muxue gently pulled the corner of Lin Ruoxi's clothes and explained in a low voice: "Xiao Rui gave it to you."
Hearing this, Lin Ruoxi hurriedly took the chicken leg back. Xue Rui gave it to her, so she couldn't give it to anyone else...
Guo Ziyan took back the bowl awkwardly. Did he seem to be being overly sentimental?
Xue Rui smiled faintly. A chicken has only two legs. There are two families eating today. The elders will not eat chicken legs, so the other leg was originally destined for Guo Ziyan.
As expected, Zhao Lizhen pulled down another chicken leg, put it on the turntable and pushed it in front of Guo Ziyan: "Ziyan, have a chicken leg."
But Xue Rui was certain that Guo Ziyan would not be able to eat chicken legs today.
Just as Guo Ziyan was about to take it, Guo Wei put down his chopsticks and said, "Ziyan, why are you so fat? Eat less meat."
While speaking, Guo Wei glanced at Gu Muxue.
Guo Ziyan swallowed his saliva. How could he not understand what his father meant?
He pushed the small plate with chicken legs in front of Gu Muxue.
"I'm trying to lose weight recently, Muxue, you eat it." Guo Ziyan said with a smile.
In fact, he wouldn't eat it even without his dad urging him. He is the oldest "kid" here, and he has to give up the chicken legs given by his elders.
Gu Muxue nodded and smiled: "Thank you."
As she spoke, Gu Muxue put the chicken drumstick on Xue Rui's plate and whispered, "I want to lose weight, too."
Xue Rui took a bite and muttered, "Then I'll just solve it reluctantly."
Eating Gu Qingshan's chicken legs was too stressful, but eating Guo Ziyan's chicken legs didn't have any psychological burden.
The corner of Guo Ziyan's mouth twitched. How could Xue Rui have the nerve to do that?
There were two girls at the table, and they just ate it without any hesitation?
Because it was given by Gu Muxue, but when will he ever meet a girl like this?
No, he has already met her, Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi was just about to give him a chicken leg, but for some reason she suddenly stopped giving it to him.
"Ruoxi, eat quickly." Gu Muxue urged.
Lin Ruoxi raised her head and glanced at the table. She saw only kind looks. She hadn't eaten chicken legs like this for a long time.
"Thank you." Lin Ruoxi's eyes reddened.
"Ruoxi, what's wrong with you?" Gu Muxue asked in a low voice with concern.
"Nothing... nothing." Lin Ruoxi blinked quickly to let her eyes dry as soon as possible.
Gu Muxue was dazed. She told Xue Rui about Lin Ruoxi's abnormal behavior just now.
"Eat first, and I'll tell you after dinner."
Xue Rui's expression remained unchanged, but he felt a pang of pain in his heart. He raised the chicken leg towards Lin Ruoxi, signaling the little girl to chew it.
Lin Ruoxi smiled sweetly at Xue Rui. Xue Rui is still so nice.
……
After everyone had almost finished eating, Gu Qingshan and the others chatted about the past in the private room.
"I'm full. Xiao Rui, come with me to find the toilet."
Gu Muxue took the opportunity to pull Xue Rui out first.
"Xiao Rui, what's wrong with Ruoxi?" Gu Muxue asked with a frown.
Since she accepted Lin Ruoxi and Xue Rui, she thought there should be no secrets between the three of them.
The scene at the dinner table just now made her very uncomfortable, as if there was a secret between the two of them.
"Mu Xue, this may be difficult for you to understand, just because of a chicken leg." Xue Rui sighed.
Lin Ruoxi is actually very easy to impress, but there are too few people who can understand her.
"Because of a chicken leg?" Gu Muxue looked suspicious. She felt that Xue Rui was lying to her.
Why would Lin Ruoxi cry over a chicken leg?
"You can get chicken legs at any dinner party, but Lin Ruoxi..."
Xue Rui tried to put it as tactfully as possible. With Gu Qingshan's social status, Gu Muxue would be treated preferentially no matter where the dinner was, but what about Lin Ruoxi?
Such a well-behaved and sensible child is not welcomed at home, and no one cares for him at banquets in the village. Those women who are taking care of the children will definitely give the best chicken legs to their own children.
Lin Ruoxi has no one to support her, so who would care about her feelings?
Xue Rui cares, and he always subconsciously keeps the best for Lin Ruoxi, or gives her a little more.
"Human nature is far more selfish than you think. You live in a materially rich circle, so you may not understand why she never gets to eat chicken legs at a banquet..."
"Even if she is rich now, what she lacked in her childhood is missing forever..."
Xue Rui tried his best to explain to Gu Muxue in simple and understandable language.
"I...I understand." Gu Muxue's eyes were red.
What happens around her every day is what Lin Ruoxi has always longed for but cannot get.
What Lin Ruoxi cares about is not the chicken legs, but someone giving her special care.
No wonder Xue Rui holds such a special place in Lin Ruoxi's heart. Xue Rui is really gentle. Even if she knows this, it is difficult for her to discover it, but Xue Rui has always cared about Lin Ruoxi.
Lin Ruoxi happened to walk out of the private room at this time. Gu Muxue reached out and held Lin Ruoxi's arm: "The chicken drumstick just now was given to you by me."
Lin Ruoxi had a dazed expression. She nodded and said, "Well, thank you."
She didn't understand what Gu Muxue meant. Didn't she say that Xue Rui gave it to her?
Gu Muxue pursed her lips. Xue Rui was still the most unique one in Lin Ruoxi's heart, and no one could change that.
"Xiao Rui is really nice." Gu Muxue said in a low voice.
"Yes, he is the best." Lin Ruoxi smiled sweetly and looked at Xue Rui with tenderness in her eyes.
Not long after, Guo Wei walked out of the private room and said to Gu Muxue, "Muxue, let Zi Yan drive you around today. You young people can't chat with us old guys, so I won't spoil your fun."
He and Gu Qingshan have already discussed that although his son is not good at studying, he is an expert in eating, drinking and having fun...
He also has a driver's license and is quite experienced at driving.
"Well, thank you Uncle Guo." Gu Muxue nodded obediently. This is what she wants most. After all, if she stays with her parents all the time, Lin Ruoxi might envy her...
"Drive slowly and be careful." Guo Wei whispered and stuffed a stack of cash into Guo Ziyan's hand.
After Guo Wei walked into the private room again, Guo Ziyan straightened his chest. It was time for him to show off.
He waved the Audi A6 car key and said, "Let's go."
Xue Rui and Gu Muxue are a couple. If he lets them sit in the back seat later, he can naturally let Lin Ruoxi sit in the passenger seat.
Xue Rui was too lazy to pay attention to him. He didn't know what kind of nonsense this kid was fantasizing about.
When they arrived at the door of the restaurant, Lin Ruoxi said softly, "Boss, you and Mu Xue wait for me here. I'll go drive."
Guo Ziyan was stunned and suddenly remembered that Lin Ruoxi was Xue Rui's driver.
Xue Rui also has a car?
But it probably wouldn't be as good as his, so he advised: "There are only four of us, so one car is enough."
Lin Ruoxi thought about it carefully and felt that what Guo Ziyan said made sense.
If she drives, will Xue Rui sit in the passenger seat and let Gu Muxue and Guo Ziyan sit together?
Xue Rui will be unhappy.
How should we arrange things to make Xue Rui happiest?
Lin Ruoxi fell into deep thought...
The corners of Guo Ziyan's mouth suddenly raised. Lin Ruoxi had been following him, which meant that she agreed to his proposal.
It was not until the two of them walked to the parking lot that Guo Ziyan discovered that Lin Ruoxi had stopped in front of a Land Rover Range Rover and was staring at the car in a daze.
Guo Ziyan swallowed his saliva and thought that this car was very cool, but also ridiculously expensive, probably more than one million.
"Let's go, my car is parked over there." Guo Ziyan said. He didn't have the confidence to let his father buy such an expensive car.
Lin Ruoxi said, "Didn't you say that one would be enough? You can open this one."
As she spoke, Lin Ruoxi handed the key to Guo Ziyan.
Guo Ziyan's eyes were blank. He held the Land Rover key and murmured, "Is this yours?"
"Well, I said before, I'm Xue Rui's driver and this is my boss's car." Lin Ruoxi explained.
She had already figured it out. She decided to let Guo Ziyan drive, and she, Xue Rui, and Gu Muxue would sit in the back seat. This would make Xue Rui the happiest.
The corner of Guo Ziyan's mouth twitched. He remembered how he had acted so arrogantly in front of Xue Rui before, constantly showing off his car keys...
No wonder the other party didn't say anything to him and was even too lazy to discuss this topic with him. He thought the other party was inferior, but it turned out that he was just saving face for him?
Thinking about it now, he was really grateful to Xue Rui for not slapping him in the face. The gap between him and Xue Rui was too big.
Guo Ziyan asked in a low voice: "Lin Ruoxi, how much money do you owe Xue Rui?"
To be honest, he suddenly felt a little unconfident now, but according to what Xue Rui said before, it should be just some tuition fees. The tuition fees of public schools are not high, and he can still afford it.
"Well, I can't remember." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice.
She just wanted to stay with Xue Rui. Everything she had belonged to Xue Rui. She had never counted her assets because the profits from the electronics factory were still unknown.
"You probably remember it, right? I'll help you..."
Lin Ruoxi murmured, "There are 30 million in cash, if there are dividends..."
"Gudong~" Guo Ziyan's Adam's apple rolled.
Guo Ziyan wondered what was wrong with this girl?
Is it Chinese? Why can't he understand?
"What can you help me with?" Lin Ruoxi suddenly stopped. She always felt that Guo Ziyan was weird, as if he had something to say to her.
"Nothing, thank you for the pack of cigarettes." Guo Ziyan took out a cigarette and lit it.
If what the other party said was true, he would never be able to pay it back in his entire lifetime. If the other party was joking, it was obvious that he was rejecting him.
Anyway, no matter which one it was, he couldn't continue the topic.
Lin Ruoxi explained: "Well, Mu Xue threw away your cigarettes before, so I'm giving you a pack as compensation."
Guo Ziyan looked distressed. Did he just think too much of himself?
He sighed and put the car keys on the hood: "Well... I remembered I have something else to do, you guys can have fun by yourselves."
"Well, then you go." Lin Ruoxi felt it was a pity. She still wanted to make Xue Rui happy.
She actually knew that Xue Rui wanted to hold her and Gu Muxue's hands at the same time, but Gu Muxue seemed to be resisting...
Will Gu Muxue listen to her?
She didn't know, but everything could be discussed. She and Gu Muxue were already good friends.
Thinking of this, she smiled with her eyes curved.
……
Xue Rui and Gu Muxue were waiting in front of the hotel.
"You always order people around. Why don't you go together?" Gu Muxue frowned.
Xue Rui shook his head: "You don't understand, we need her to drive the light bulb away."
He had taught the little girl many words on how to reject people, and he had noticed early on that Guo Ziyan had feelings for his "little secretary".
The reason why he didn't take action himself was because the attack from a third party was far less powerful than Lin Ruoxi's direct attack.
As long as Guo Ziyan wants to show off his superiority, he will definitely be hit back by Lin Ruoxi.
The little girl would always say something hurtful without realizing it, and even he had been hurt before. For example, the little girl could say calmly, "It's not difficult. The answer will come out after just one look."
The reason why Lin Ruoxi has no friends is not entirely due to other people’s fault.
"Light bulb?" Gu Muxue's face turned red. Xue Rui, that bastard, actually said to drive Guo Ziyan away?
So...the three of them?
Gu Muxue was confused. She was only now beginning to truly face this relationship.
Share your favorite person with Lin Ruoxi...
She doesn't hate it, but now she always feels weird.
Not long after, Lin Ruoxi's car slowly stopped in front of the two of them.
If it were according to usual circumstances, she would happily put Xue Rui in the passenger seat.
But now there is Gu Muxue, who will sit in the passenger seat?
Gu Muxue's eyes turned, she wanted to sit with Lin Ruoxi, letting Xue Rui sit alone in the back row.
This is the price of having the best of both worlds!
But the car door wouldn't open.
Lin Ruoxi lowered the car window: "Mu Xue, can you sit in the back seat?"
Gu Muxue sighed, Lin Ruoxi would definitely choose Xue Rui.
Is she sitting alone in the back seat?
Just when she was about to open the back door in frustration, she found that Xue Rui had already opened the back door with a flattering look on his face, as if inviting her to get in.
"Hmph, you're quite sensible." Gu Muxue threw the bag at Xue Rui.
Xue Rui hurriedly took it, sent the girl into the car, and sat in the back seat himself.
"Let me see what's in this beautiful lady's bag?" Xue Rui suddenly became interested. He remembered that Lin Ruoxi had revealed some secrets about Gu Muxue and said there was a photo of him in the pocket of her wallet.
Now take it out and play with the little girl.
Gu Muxue panicked and reached out to grab it: "Don't turn it over!"
Xue Rui twisted his body to prevent the little girl from reaching it.
He suddenly felt that Gu Muxue was hiding something from her. Before they confirmed their relationship, he could rummage through the girl's bag at will and take out some snacks to eat. But now he wouldn't let her rummage through it?
It's just a photo, isn't it? Why should I be embarrassed?
Suddenly, there was a "crash" sound.
A small translucent medicine box fell out of the bag. (End of this chapter)
