Winter solstice, December 22, at 4:44 p.m.
"You were finally found out for stealing food (love affair)..."
As soon as Ren Suo opened the door and saw Zhao Huo, he couldn't help blurting out a sentence, but then he saw Xiao Meng, a beautiful woman in winter clothes behind Zhao Huo, and swallowed back the last half of the sentence 'was beaten by a woman'.
Zhao Huo had a dark face: "You treat me to dinner today, I don't care about you."
Ren Suo didn't speak, and pointed to the shallow claw marks on his face.
Zhao Huo also found it incredible that he was a rank three cultivator, even though he had not been healed by magic, but with his animal-like recovery ability, this small injury should be able to recover quickly.
However, almost a day later, although his scars were not painful or bleeding, they were very conspicuously hanging on his face. Fortunately, there was no class today on Saturday, otherwise he would have to be ashamed in front of the students.
"It's complicated..." Zhao Huo tried to avoid it.
"Then you can make a long story short." Ren Suo insisted.
Zhao Huo angrily pulled Xiao Meng to sit down, but Xiao Meng didn't help, she was very curious about Zhao Huo's answer, and she also wanted to know why, so she walked away for a while, and Zhao Huo was attacked.
Moreover, Zhao Huo seemed to be aware of this, and was preoccupied all night.
For example, originally he let Xiao Meng sleep in the master bedroom, and he slept on the sofa in the living room (the guest room was transformed into a storage room by him), but after he woke up in the middle of the night and went to the bathroom, he went straight into the master bedroom and got into Xiao Meng's bed. Xiao Meng was so frightened that he clamped his legs tightly.
However, after she waited for a full ten minutes, Zhao Huo not only didn't respond, he even pulled her quilt to cover himself, snoring in a daze.
The angry Xiao Meng had no choice but to kick him out of the bed, pulled off the quilt and continued to sleep, but heard Zhao Huo muttering: "I was wrong, don't blame me, I didn't mean to lie to you"...
Could it be that Zhao Huo, besides Sun Shu, has provoked other coquettish wild cats
Zhao Huo glanced at Ren Suo resentfully, remained silent for a moment, and said, "I stepped on the banana peel and fell out, don't ask... Ah, by the way, Ren Suo, I bought a little more snacks, let me give them to you. "
Ren Suo took Zhao Huo's snack bag and found that it was full of milk and spicy fish. He blinked: "Is there nothing else?"
I'll give you something, but you still ask so much...
Zhao Huo looked helpless. If the black cat hadn't run away when he saw him, he wouldn't have had the chance to apologize at all, otherwise why would he give it to Ren Suo...
It's not easy for Zhao Huo to say it clearly, Xiaomeng may not believe it, Ren Suo will definitely believe it, but if it is exposed, Ren Suo will know that he has cursed him to death, so it's better not to make a fuss.
The black cat probably could understand people's words, and then visited Ren Suo worriedly, and found that Ren Suo had cheated on his corpse, so he angrily troubled himself.
The education that Zhao Huo has received since he was a child is "Admit your mistakes and fight back when you fight". He failed to block the black cat's attack because he was incompetent. Wrong delivery of food.
Ren Suo glanced at Xiao Meng suspiciously, and instantly understood Ouch, Zhao Huo, you are so bad! The Three Kingdoms have come together, and you still have a Southern Barbarian invasion
However, no matter how gloating he was, he wouldn't make trouble on the spot, saying: "You guys came too early, the others haven't arrived yet, you can go back first, or just sit here..."
Zhao Huo asked: "How many people are eating together today?"
Ren Suo began to count his fingers: "First of all, my father, my mother, me, my sister,
Then there are friends in the academy, you, Xiao Meng, Cheng Ling, Yue Yan, Lin Xianyu, Bai Ji, Qin Lian,
Then there are the countermeasures, Qiao Muyi, Yu Kuangtu, Li Dan..."
Zhao Huo asked curiously, "Both Yu Kuangtu and Qin Lian are coming?"
Speaking of this, Ren Suo also had a black line on his face: "Yes, it stands to reason that the couple should spend it alone on the winter solstice. God knows why Yu Kuangtu agreed... Speaking of which, why did you agree to come over? Dinner? I thought you guys should have other activities tonight..."
Ren Suo glanced at Xiao Meng, thinking why you didn't tie up your little wolf dog.
However, Xiao Meng looked at him with great interest, and said, "It's rare for Mr. Ren to invite you so kindly. If Zhao Huo refuses, it will be unreasonable."
Yes, the reason why Zhao Huo agreed was because of Xiaomeng, and Xiaomeng was out of curiosity about Ren Suo. Because from the information Zhao Huo got, Xiaomeng was surprised to find that Dong Chengling hadn't succeeded yet, and even There is an extra Qiao Muyi!
Moreover, Qiao Muyi still seems to be able to "obviously I came first" Dong Chengling is strong and strong, and does not lose the wind!
Xiao Meng thought that Ren Suo would definitely be bound to death by Dong Chengling in this life, and never thought about other possibilities. Although Dong Chengling looks easy to bully, she has quietly become an important part of Ren Suo's life. For a part, no one can get past her to intervene in Ren Suo's life.
However, Qiao Muyi just happened to be able to!
Therefore, Xiao Meng came to observe and study with a pious heart!
Although the enemy is different and the situation is different, but the stones from other mountains can be used to attack jade, Xiao Meng is very curious about Qiao Muyi!
Besides Xiao Meng, Zhao Huo was also quite curious about Ren Suo, what would happen when Ren's parents and mother-in-law met
Ren Suo naturally didn't know the vicious thoughts of the two guys in front of him towards him, and he didn't bother to ask the reason, and asked them to do a good job and go to the kitchen to continue processing the ingredients.
There are too many people coming to dinner tonight, so he bought a lot of food, of course he has to prepare it in advance, otherwise he will summon the cook and waste a lot of time on processing the ingredients, that would be too stupid, as if it was hard work I went to a hot spring hotel for vacation but still coded diligently.
Ding dong, someone came again, Ren Suo opened the door and saw that it was Gu Yueyan.
Gu Yueyan was a little nervous at first, but when she entered the room and saw Zhao Huo and Xiao Meng were there, she immediately relaxed and greeted them with a smile.
"Come with me." Ren Suo greeted.
Then, Zhao Huo and Xiao Meng saw Gu Yueyan follow Ren Suo into the kitchen, and then heard the sound of the door closing.
Xiao Meng blinked.
what's the situation
She asked in a low voice: "Brother Huo, that female student, I remember that she and Dong Chengling seem to be relatively close...?"
"Yeah, she is Dong Chengling's favorite student. She is usually called a sister to Dong Chengling, and Ren Suo seems to regard her as a younger sister."
Zhao Huo thought about it seriously: "It's similar to the relationship between me and you."
Xiao Meng said, "It's her godmother, so it shouldn't have anything special to do with Ren Suo."
…
When Gu Yueyan heard Ren Suo close the kitchen door, she immediately became nervous again, with her hands in front of her, her thoughts twisted together in a panic.
"You... told me to avoid them and come earlier, what are you trying to do?" Gu Yueyan forcefully walked to the sink and said, "May I help with the cooking?"
"No." Ren Suo said, "You're a bit late, but it doesn't matter..."
"I walked around the college with my aunt in the morning, and before I came in the afternoon, I was pestered by Xianyu for a while..." Gu Yueyan explained.
In fact, she lied, she asked Lin Xianyu to teach her how to play the game.
She also wanted to communicate more with the game idiot next to her through games.
However, Lin Xianyu saw through her purpose at a glance, and happily introduced her the characters and gameplay of the game, which almost made her forget about this little date with Ren Suo.
"It's okay, I just have something to say to you face to face, I didn't find a convenient opportunity..."
While talking, Ren Suo came over and found that Gu Yueyan had no intention of moving away, so he had to stand beside her and continue picking vegetables and leaves: "Before I say anything, I hope you have a mental preparation."
Feeling the body temperature of the man next to him, Gu Yueyan's heart skipped a beat, and then he took a deep breath, crossed his hands and fingers, lowered his head to look at the water falling from the faucet, and his voice became softer in vain: "Go ahead."
"What I want to say is..." Ren Suo seemed a bit embarrassed: "It's just..."
Gu Yueyan waited for a long time, and when the expectation and shyness in her heart reached the extreme, she heard Ren Suo say in a complicated tone: "...it's about your two self-righteous elder brothers and father."
"... Huh?" Gu Yueyan was slightly taken aback.
Then Ren Suo completely told Gu Yueyan about his experience of viewing Gu Yuexuan's memory from a third-party perspective.
He originally wanted to talk about it last night, but was interrupted by his mother and he forgot about it, so he dragged it off until now to ask Gu Yueyan to meet alone to talk about it.
In fact, this matter is also very simple. A brother who can't understand the thoughts of a mediocre sister because of his outstanding talent, and a father who can't raise his daughter at all, but only herds him, gradually cast a shadow on Gu Yueyan's family in his heart.
They are all saying good things to Gu Yue in their own way, but it may be the tradition of their martial arts family, they like to do good deeds without leaving names. Originally, this was nothing, but sometimes Gu Yueyan didn't understand what they did. For example, Gu Yueyan couldn't persist in practicing martial arts. Gu Wenyi didn't reprimand her at all, just to make her live more comfortably, but Gu Yueyan understood it as his father I have no expectations of myself.
I don't know if it's because of the teaching from his mother, Gu Yueyan was also a little adult since he was a child, he swallowed any grievances by himself, never cried, and obediently followed his father's orders, which caused the gap between the two sides to grow bigger and bigger.
In their relationship, everyone is wrong, Gu Wenyi can't raise a daughter, Gu Yuexuan is too self-centered, Gu Yueyan is too silent, but their starting point is good. The two men want their daughter and sister to live a happy life. Better yet, girls just want approval.
The way they express their love is all wrong.
So Ren Suo felt that being nice to others was really a very powerful talent.
Ren Suo felt that he should not conceal this information, so he told Gu Yueyan the truth, and then said directly: "I guarantee that what I said is true, you don't need to tell me what you think, just go outside and wait for dinner. "
Ren Suo didn't want to kidnap Gu Yueyan morally, because no matter what, Gu Yueyan's grievances and heartaches in the past ten years are not fake.
Whether she intends to reconcile with her family as before or continue as before, Ren Suo has no room to intervene.
However, Gu Yueyan was slightly taken aback, but asked, "I don't doubt what you said... But, how do you know this?"
This is a huge doubt, but Ren Suo is completely right: "I just know."
Facing the bonder, he is so confident that he doesn't need to give any reason, because he is Ren Suo, and he will not lie to his friends.
Gu Yueyan nodded thoughtfully, and immediately said, "I don't hate my father and brother anymore."
"Huh? When did it happen?" Ren Suo was taken aback.
"While you're down."
Ren Suo thought for a while, and twitched the corner of his mouth: "Because I beat Gu Yuexuan?"
That is not the main reason.
Gu Yueyan raised her head and smiled softly at Ren Suo: "However, I still want to thank you, you let me know that there are still many people in this world who care about me, recognize me, and help me... I have always insisted , It’s not in vain, I can also be an important force for others.”
"You're welcome, the previous agreement is still valid, whenever you need help, you can come to me at any time." Ren Suo said solemnly.
"Then you put on an apron first." Gu Yueyan handed the apron to Ren Suo, and said seriously: "You should wear an apron when cooking, so as not to stain your clothes."
Ren Suo put on his family's apron with a black line on his face. Dong Chengling took it over by hand, and they were all pink.
"Do you really not need my help?" Gu Yueyan asked again.
"No, no, you go out and wait for dinner." Ren Suo thought of something and asked, "Do you want to invite the two of them to come over for dinner?"
Gu Yueyan was startled for a moment, and immediately understood who Ren Suo was referring to as 'they'. She shook her head and said, "They have already left Lianjiang."
Ren Suo was also speechless about the two father and son and would not stay to have a meal with their relatives during the winter solstice. No wonder you were hated by Gu Yueyan for so many years hiding in the corner and drawing circles.
"Pity."
"It doesn't matter, there will definitely be opportunities in the future, and we will have dinner with them." Gu Yueyan asked, "It will be me who cooks."
Ren Suo blinked, "Okay, but this time I have to come."
Gu Yueyan left the kitchen calmly, returned to the living room and sat upright at the dining table, holding his chin in both hands in a daze.
She knew that what Ren Suo wanted to talk to her was definitely different from what she expected.
She never thought that she could run ahead of Sister Qiao and Sister Ling... Well, she had such a small expectation.
But now that his hope has come to naught, Gu Yueyan is not depressed.
Since Ren Suo is willing to fight against his brother to comfort her and understand her past to help her, then Gu Yueyan is also willing to believe in his fate with him.
The moment Ren Suo exhausted his strength on the training ground and his naked clothes dissipated and fell to the ground, Gu Yueyan knew that her heart would be wrapped around him forever with the Yueyao clothes.
Even if, what she has to face in the future is Dong Chengling, the number one cultivator in Lianjiang, who is proficient in space magic and has amazing fighting power...
And Qiao Muyi, the deputy director of the Countermeasures Bureau, who is proficient in multiple lines of spells and whose combat effectiveness can be called the pinnacle of the third rank...
strength!
She suddenly discovered one thing: In this world where extraordinary people are rampant, she needs strength to carry out her ideas!
Originally, even after Ren Suo's explanation, Gu Yueyan's understanding of her father and brother's slight complaints did not mean that she was not angry.
Just like she can understand that Lin Xianyu can't do every high math test, but it doesn't mean she isn't angry.
She is actually a small-minded person, otherwise she would not alienate her brother because of jealousy, work extremely hard just to rank first because of jealousy, and hate Ren Suo because of jealousy...
But now, Gu Yueyan suddenly felt that she should look to the future instead of holding on to her family's past mistakes.
After all, blood is thicker than water, family members should be considerate and help each other...
For example, my father has now turned three, maybe he will be able to turn four soon;
For example, my brother has just advanced to the third rank now, and it is estimated that after a while, he will also be able to advance to the fourth rank;
And she, now at the second rank, is working hard towards the realm of the third and fourth ranks...
At that time, the combined strength of the whole family might be greater than sister Qiao and sister Ling!
As long as you have enough strength, you can grasp your own fate!
At that time, I will be able to take Ren Suo home in a fair manner. I will cook for them in the kitchen, and the three of them will chat outside, and we will eat together...
Then, I can love them in my right way.
On the other side, Xiao Meng, who was secretly observing Gu Yueyan, noticed that the happy smile on Gu Yueyan's face slowly changed into a firm smile.
She had seen this kind of smile several times, both on Sun Shu's face and on her own.
After pondering for a while, she suddenly said to Zhao Huo, "Brother Huo, why do you know Ren Suo so well?"
Zhao Huo was stunned: "... There's no reason, it's just that our civil servants were roommates during the training camp, and I met him again after arriving at Tianlian College, and we went back and forth..."
Xiao Meng said: "But you have so many colleagues and students in the college, why do you seem to have a particularly close relationship with Ren Suo?"
"Hmm... Maybe it's because I'm the same kind as him." Zhao Huo replied, recalling Ren Suo's gaming geek attributes.
"As expected..." Xiao Meng nodded thoughtfully, "It's the same kind of smell."
