Be affectionate

Chapter 105 Shoes

Compared with the evening market, the lunch market menu is relatively simple, and all the dishes have been finished in 45 minutes.

After eating the after-dinner ice cream and fruit, Lin You drank half a cup of tea to finish, and at the same time asked the waiter to bring over hot towels.

She wiped her hands slowly, her gaze was slightly lowered, as if she didn't look at Gu Xi who was sitting across from her at all, but her attention was all in her peripheral vision.

Gu Xi was wearing the same clothes that Lin You wore when she first saw her at Director Qian's place today.

Gu Xi only brought two suitcases when he returned home, one for his belongings and clothes, and the other for gifts bought for the Lin family.

After returning to China, I kept spinning, and I didn't have time to buy clothes, so I only switched two or three sets.

Lin You didn't know that Gu Xi didn't have time or clothes to change. From her point of view, Gu Xi dressed a little casually, and her makeup was very light. She just put on a little lipstick, and she didn't seem to have any attachment to today's meeting. Expectations, but did not bother to prepare.

On the other hand, I got up early in the morning and tossed for an hour and a half, and everything was perfect, like a fool.

Originally, Lin You wanted to let Gu Xi go back after dinner, but now she regretted it.

It was too easy to just let her go.

Six years of interest can't end with just one meal.

After coming out of the restaurant, Lin You didn't say anything about going back, just wandered aimlessly in the shopping mall.

I accidentally saw the ice cream shop that she loved very much in the past.

A fragment suddenly appeared in memory.

Lin You suddenly remembered her and Gu Xi's trip to the amusement park a long time ago, when she took a bite of Gu Xi's ice cream and was disgusted by her.

The warmth from the past came to my heart, making Lin You a little dazed.

At that time, she and Gu Xi cared about each other wholeheartedly, wanted to treat each other well, and wished to give each other the best things in the world.

A sweet smile appeared on the corner of Lin You's mouth.

But soon, the scar on his knee suddenly started to hurt.

Gu Xi's desperation when she left cruelly without saying a word, choked her breath and made her expression turn cold instantly.

Lin You looked at the ice cream shop, and said to Gu Xi in a flat tone, "I want to eat ice cream."

Gu Xi also saw the ice cream shop where they ate together, his expression moved slightly, and he asked Lin You: "Then I'll go buy it, what flavor do you want?"

"I don't know, you choose."

After finishing speaking, Lin You sat down in the rest area beside him, took out his mobile phone and looked at it.

When Gu Xing walked into the store, this ice cream store had introduced many new flavors over the years, with a wide variety of colorful and lovely colors, but Gu Xi still saw Lin You's favorite caramel-flavored ice cream many years ago at a glance.

"Hello, I want a caramelized hazelnut ice cream."

"Okay, please wait a moment."

Taking the ice cream out, Gu Xi thoughtfully put a paper towel behind the ice cream roll before handing it to Lin You, in case the melted ice cream would stain Lin You's hands.

Seeing that Gu Xi actually bought the flavor he was used to, Lin You's awkwardness with him just now resurfaced.

While being moved by the fact that Gu Xi still remembers the taste she likes, maybe Gu Xi has really put her in his heart all these years.

On the one hand, she couldn't help but wonder if Gu Xi remembered her preferences because she was from the Lin family.

Lin You mocked herself in her heart, she had already been hurt by Gu Xi, every word Gu Xi wanted to repay the Lin family took root in Lin You's heart, now it has grown into a big tree, and the whole piece of her heart can't be waved go haze.

After Lin You took it, he took a bite and deliberately returned the ice cream to Gu Xi, looking disinterested, "I'm tired of this taste."

Faced with Lin You's deliberate difficulty, Gu Xi didn't say anything, and took the ice cream that Lin You took a bite of in a good-tempered manner, and continued to ask her: "What about the cheese one or the matcha one? Which flavor are you more interested in? I'll buy it for you again."

"I don't know, you choose." It was still the same sentence.

Lin You's facial features were originally flamboyant, but after putting on makeup, they showed a bright and sharp beauty, which could easily make people fearful and dare not look directly at them.

At this moment, her cold eyes were staring at Gu Xi's. Gu Xi didn't dodge, but with a gentle and doting smile, nodded and said: "Okay, I'll go and see again."

Gu Xi went back to the store again, asked the clerk about the popular flavors recently, and finally chose the best-selling sea salt cheese.

After buying it back, Lin You still took a bite and threw it to Gu Xi.

"It's not tasty, I don't like it."

Facing Lin You's unreasonable troublemaking and deliberately embarrassing, Gu Xi did not show any displeasure or impatience, but was a little embarrassed by the two ice creams.

She remembered that Lin You also ate two ice creams by himself.

Although it was a bit strenuous to eat, I still tried my best to digest the ice cream in my hand.

Thinking of Lin You's cuteness back then, Gu Xi planned to imitate her, don't waste it, eat both of them.

When Lin You saw that Gu Xi really wanted to eat two ice creams in one go, his expression was gloomy.

Eat so much ice at one time, are you not afraid of having a stomachache?

Lin You stretched out his hand and silently took away the caramel hazelnut flavored ice cream from Gu Xi's hand.

Gu Xi looked up in astonishment, seeing that Lin You didn't say anything, just walked forward while eating ice cream.

She took a small bite of the remaining ice cream, looked at Lin You's back, her heart rippled, and then followed.

The two were eating ice cream and walking side by side, with a distance of about half a meter between them, neither far nor close, but whether it was their body shape, temperament, or the tacit cooperation in their steps, people could tell at a glance that they were fellow travelers .

Up to the second floor, they were attracted by a burst of hilarious laughter at the same time.

A group of female high school students in school uniforms celebrated in front of a self-service claw machine that their companions had just hit one hit and caught the highest prize.

The group of girls hugged and laughed unscrupulously, which did attract the eyes of passers-by, but they were still happy and flamboyant.

Memories from the past broke through time in an instant and emerged in the hearts of the two of them.

They all thought of the laurel rabbit.

The luggage that Gu Xi took away back then was empty, and almost nothing was taken away, only the laurel rabbit that Lin You caught for her was taken abroad by her.

After Gu Xi left, Lin You never entered Gu Xi's room again, so she didn't know that Gu Xi had taken the rabbit away. She only thought that Gu Xi left everything about her, including herself.

Seeing Lin You staring at the claw machine in a daze, Gu Xi just wanted to ask her if she wanted to play, but Lin You already looked back and walked forward without any hesitation.

Passing by the door of a shoe store, Lin You noticed that Gu Xi looked inside.

She subconsciously glanced at the high-heeled shoes on Gu Xi's feet, and found that Gu Xi's feet seemed to be a pair of new shoes that had not been worn for a long time.

Lin You's eyebrows tightened imperceptibly, and he turned in the direction where he was going, and entered the shop.

Gu Xi was stunned for a moment, thinking that Lin You wanted to buy shoes, and followed her into the store.

The shopping guide immediately came forward to recommend her new products to Lin You and Gu Xi.

Lin You was a little careless, and randomly picked a few pairs of shoes on the display shelf. When she sat down to try on the shoes, she saw in the mirror in front of her that Gu Xi's ankles were a little red.

The new shoes did not fit well and were worn out.

The ankle was frayed and he went shopping with her for so long, without saying a word or showing any discomfort.

Thinking of the ice cream shop just now, when she said that she didn't like it or it was delicious, Gu Xi ran back and forth twice, no discomfort on her feet could be seen in her movements or expressions.

Lin You couldn't help thinking, Gu Xi can really bear it.

Wouldn't she be in pain?

Lin You once thought that she and Gu Xi were just like this, and that they might meet again one day, but there would be no other possibilities between them.

Even when they met again, she might have let go of this feeling and no longer cared about it.

Unexpectedly, six years later, she and Gu Xi met again, and the feelings she had kept hidden for six years broke out uncontrollably. Reason told her that she should draw a clear line with Gu Xi, but every time she faced Gu Xi I couldn't control my feelings and emotions, and couldn't help but want to get entangled with Gu Xi again and again.

Lin You said to herself, all I did to Gu Xi was to get revenge on her for leaving without saying goodbye six years ago, that's all.

I just want her to taste the pain that I have tasted.

But every kiss, every tacit consent from Gu Xi, made some inexplicable desires faintly grow in Lin You's heart.

Perhaps, after all these years, Gu Xi could become calmer.

After all, she has changed a lot over the years.

But Gu Xi's injured ankle in front of him made Lin You suddenly realize that Gu Xi was still the same, he didn't say anything, didn't mention anything, and just endured everything silently.

Suddenly, Lin You's heart felt like a huge stone was pressing down on her, and she was a little short of breath and a little weak.

Lin You stood up, walked to the flat shoe area, picked out a pair of soft fabric shoe holders on the glass container, asked the shopping guide to find a pair of size 37, and walked to Gu Xi with them.

"Take off your shoes." Lin You's tone was a bit harsh.

Gu Xi didn't expect that Lin You noticed the injury on her foot, pursed her lips lightly, sat down and took off her shoes.

The originally white and slender ankles were rubbed red, and blood had already leaked from the skin.

Seeing this jaw-dropping scene, Lin You frowned even more. She squatted down and put the shoes in her hand on Gu Xi.

When holding Gu Xi's foot, I felt that Gu Xi retreated nervously.

Gu Xi's voice trembled a little: "I'll do it myself."

Lin You didn't intend to let go of the hand holding Gu Xi's feet, but held it even tighter. He helped her put on both shoes, still maintaining a half-squatting position, his eyes fell on Gu Xi's feet, and smiled. Said: "It really suits you."

Gu Xi's heart was a little touched, and she just wanted to say that she also likes this pair of shoes very much.

The expression on Lin You's face was still smiling, and even his tone did not change. What he said immediately made Gu Xi's expression freeze for a second.

"You owe our Lin family another sum, and you should write it down carefully this time." Lin You looked up and smiled at her.

Lin You found that she had begun to lose control of her contradictory heart.

Sitting back in the car, Gu Xi squeezed the lollipop in his hand and looked at it for an unknown amount of time.

Lin You has already returned to the company. Just now at the shoe store, after Lin You swiped the card, she didn't let Gu Xi deliver it, but left by herself.

Gu Xi was left alone wearing newly bought, comfortable shoes, carrying the replaced shoes, and went to the underground parking lot in a rather complicated mood.

Back in the car, Gu Xi saw Lin You's favorite lollipop that she bought earlier in the car, held the lollipop in her hand, and stared blankly at the lollipop.

The car window was suddenly knocked several times.

Gu Xi thought it was the staff of the parking lot urging her, and was about to raise her head and say that I would leave right away, when she realized that the person knocking on her car window was actually Li Ximing.

This shopping mall is near the LC company, and there are many office buildings around it, so the surrounding white-collar workers will go to the shopping mall to eat or buy milk tea at noon, and Li Ximing is no exception.

Just now, she was holding milk tea, and when she was about to go back to the company, she saw Lin You and Gu Xi trying on shoes in the opposite shoe store. She originally wanted to go over to say hello, but as soon as she walked into the door of the shoe store, she heard Lin You say hello to her. What Gu Xi said was sarcasm.

Li Ximing didn't go forward because of surprise for a while, turned around and went to the shop next door.

Seeing Lin You leaving, Gu Xi took the elevator to the parking lot alone, and Li Ximing chased after him.

She wanted to talk to Gu Xi alone.

Li Ximing sat in the car, stopped talking for a long time, and finally said to Gu Xi: "I heard everything just now."

Gu Xi quickly understood what Li Ximing heard.

"How could Lin You treat you like this!" Li Ximing said angrily.

Li Ximing knew that Gu Xi lived in the Lin family before, and seemed to have received some help from the Lin family, but in Li Ximing's opinion, Lin You made rapid progress back then, and even got the first grade in the college entrance examination. What about the Lin family? !

So Li Ximing couldn't understand, didn't Lin You like Gu Xi?When Gu Xi was bullied at school before, Lin You helped Gu Xi out too much, why is she bullying Gu Xi herself now?

Seeing that Li Ximing was really angry and his eyes were red with anger, Gu Xi felt a little touched.

I have lived alone these years, I don't have many friends, and I don't have the intention to make friends. As time goes by, I don't even have anyone to talk to.

Originally thought that these years, she and Li Ximing would only contact each other during the holidays, and their friendship was nothing more than a casual acquaintance with old classmates.

I didn't expect Li Ximing to be so angry because of her.

"Lin You is angry with me because I failed her before."

Maybe it was Li Ximing's resentment, or maybe he didn't want Li Ximing to have some misunderstandings with Lin You, facing Li Ximing, Gu Xi tried to speak out the thoughts buried in his heart frankly.

"My inability to be good to her before made her sad and caused her to go through a particularly difficult time. So now I just hope that she can be happy, no more insomnia, and no more need to go to the doctor to take medicine So no matter how she treats me, I accept it. Besides, just now she went into the shoe store to help me buy shoes because she knew that my new shoes were hurting my feet, so...she was just talking loudly, and she didn't really treat me It's bad. I can see everything in her mind."

Hearing Gu Xi's words, Li Ximing frowned and asked, "Did she get sick before? It sounds serious. Was it because of your going abroad?"

Gu Xi didn't speak, but nodded heavily.

Li Ximing showed a dazed expression, and said, "No wonder."

Realizing that Li Ximing seemed to know something, Gu Xi asked, "No wonder what?"

Li Ximing sighed, "Did you never read the class's WeChat group?"

Gu Xi nodded honestly, and Li Ximing said: "A few years ago when they talked about Lin You's freshman year, they almost dropped out of school. It turned out that it was because of illness. I thought..."

Li Ximing didn't have the nerve to finish the sentence. At that time, she thought that Lin You, the former school bully, had caused some trouble again and almost dropped out of school.

Unexpectedly, it was because of Gu Xi's departure that the psychological instability caused this twists and turns.

She comforted Gu Xi and said: "Although I don't know why you left suddenly back then, I think you must have your own difficulties and difficulties, Gu Xi...don't blame yourself too much."

Gu Xi smiled at her: "I'm fine."

No matter how Lin You vents her anger on her, she will accept it, that's no problem.

What troubled Gu Xi was that he didn't know what else he could do for Lin You, and what he could do to heal Lin You's wounds.

Speaking of class groups, Li Ximing remembered something and said, "By the way, do you know that there will be an alumni meeting next month?"

Gu Xi shook her head, she never cared about information like alumni associations and classmate associations.

Li Ximing asked her, "Are you going?"

Gu Xi hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "Forget it, I haven't seen you for so long, and I haven't lost contact with my former classmates, so I don't know what to say when I go."

"Well, I knew you wouldn't go."

"are you going?"

"We'll see what happens then."

Gu Xi drove the car out of the parking lot, "I'll take you back to the company."

Li Ximing happily gave Gu Xi a light arm, "Xiao Xi, you are so kind, why don't you come upstairs with me, and I'll get you something delicious!"

Gu Xi smiled at her, "Next time, I have to go back to the company."

After parting with Li Ximing, Gu Xi picked up the phone and looked at Lin You's WeChat chat page, and looked at Lin You's profile picture, with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
