Criticizing her, she touched her nose and followed him resignedly. After a while, she quickly ran in front of Gu Yebai and said, "Gu Yebai, let's settle this before leaving."
Only then did Gu Yebai notice that she was holding several plastic bags in her hands, with wisps of steam rising from the top of the bags.
Stuffing two of the bags into his hands, she automatically ran to the front of the flower garden, pressed her butt against the chair, pulled out a meat bun, and gnawed it with gusto.
Gu Yebai's expression froze, he walked up to her and handed the things back to her.
"Why don't you eat it? It tastes very good. Who asked you to make an appointment so early? The school cafeteria hasn't opened yet, but I went all the way to buy it."
When he said it later, he had an expression that said it was all your fault.
"Thank you, but I don't have the habit of eating breakfast." Gu Yebai declined lightly, politely but coldly.
Since Ling died, he never had breakfast again.
In my memory, that pure face, no matter how much humiliation and blank stares it suffered, the warm smile in its eyes never faded in the most difficult times of life.
Ling, his twin brother.
This young man may have never been strong, but he has always been perseverant.
The Gu family has never been just an ordinary wealthy family. The Art Consulting Agency under its umbrella has a wide range of industries and has hundreds of millions of assets. But they are... illegitimate children. Even their father doesn't love their mother. Keeping a woman is just a way for a rich man to spend his free time. After playing with it and throwing it away, no one will condemn her, and his mother doesn't even know that the woman already has a family. After learning about that person, she didn't cry, but just lived quietly with her two sons. She passed away very young, worked hard, and was sad. She actually believed in that man's ridiculous love.
But he and Ling knew better than anyone else that in this world, no one would be willing to give them any love. If they wanted to survive, they had to be strong.
When their mother left, they were still young and had no ability to make a living. The so-called living expenses from their mother and brother every month were pitiful, but his talent for painting had gradually emerged, and he almost spent all his food money on When buying painting supplies, Ling divided her meager living expenses into two parts. Apart from a formal meal, she never had a formal breakfast or supper.
Ling would sometimes joke, "Bai, how many buns can a piece of paper and a pen of yours cost?"
But he said this and supported him in learning painting. They never quarreled, except for the matter of learning painting. He wanted to give up at one point, but Ling refused to do so no matter what.
As he grew older, Ling spent all his spare time doing odd jobs to support his education in painting.
Occasionally if there is any leftover, Ling will buy him some snacks, but he always refuses to eat them with a stubborn face.
If there is not enough food for two people, you can eat it yourself. He told Ling so.
Ling would smile and say, it’s not fun to eat alone.
One person is lonely, two people are life. Now, he finally has the ability to let both of them live a good life. However, the person who could share it is no longer there. Leave forever, never come back, never come back.
"Gu Yebai, it's hard to eat alone." Confused by the gloomy look on his face, she stood up and walked over.
Gu Yebai was suddenly shocked.
The scenery seems to be changing instantly.
The girl with crooked eyebrows in front of her seemed to overlap with the image of the boy in her memory.
In a daze, the corner of her mouth suddenly became slightly warm, but it was she who moved the bun to his mouth.
"You've touched it, and I can't eat it anymore. If you don't appreciate it, then throw it away." She looked at him and said seriously.
He can't seem to say no, any more would be pretentious.
She smiled and started eating again. He put the bun into his mouth and took a bite. The hot meat juice immediately burst out and it tasted really good.
"Eh."
She was like a noisy little sparrow, chirping again.
"Huh?" He frowned slightly.
"Gu Yebai, I suddenly remembered that the bun on your hand... uh, I bit it just now." She opened her eyes wide and looked like she had done something wrong.
He had a mysophobia, but when he turned over the food on his hands, strangely enough, he didn't feel any disgust in his heart.
Her roaring laughter suddenly came to my ears, "I'm just teasing you, I haven't touched it."
She gnawed on the food and spoke vaguely, but she was as happy as a little mouse that had stolen oil.
Oh, I bet he was tricked by her too. He curled his lips and said, "Lu Youyan."
"What?"
"Keep your head down."
"What to do?" She was a little confused.
"There's a piece of tree dust stuck in your hair, let me remove it for you."
"Thank you... thank you." Her face suddenly turned red and she lowered her head obediently.
Soon, she shouted loudly, "Gu Yebai, why did you hit me?"
He took back his hand and said, "Well, I was teasing you too."
Before that, he gave her a chestnut. A small ring.
Youyan went crazy and clenched her fist to fight back. However, after comparing their heights, she swallowed and continued to chew the bun silently.
