Chapter 161 He Knows To Stop Pretending

"If she comes back now, will you see her?"

Dahu asked tentatively.

Gu Huai said: "Isn't she under the desk? What's the difference if I see her or not?"

Dahu glanced at his feet and knew that he had been exposed.

Although he didn't know exactly where the secret was revealed.

"Xiaoxiao, he knows, stop pretending."

Xiao Xiao then stood up.

She was wearing a light brown windbreaker, and her skin was a little tanned from being tanned outdoors all year round.

There was some embarrassment on his face because he was exposed, but it quickly dissipated.

In order to ease the strange atmosphere in the air, she took the initiative to say hello: "Agu, long time no see."

Gu Huai: "It's been a long time indeed. You've been out for more than a year."

Xiao Xiao lowered his head, with a slight smile on his face: "Yes, I have changed a lot."

She raised her eyes to look at Gu Huai, hoping to hear different words from the latter's mouth than before she left. But she knew that this was probably an extravagant hope.

"No. Russo often tries to find ways to stuff me with your photos."

She knew that this was a luxury.

Xiao Xiao calmed down and said with a smile: "You have changed a lot. Last time I was in peacekeeping, I even saw the company's cheongsam."

Gu Huai walked back to the sofa, sat down and leaned on it slightly: "It's all thanks to Dahu."

Having said this, the atmosphere seemed to have stagnated again.

When Xiao Xiao was racking his brains to think of another topic, Gu Huai finally took the initiative to say something:

"Tell me about what you saw outside."

Xiao Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.

After graduation, she devoted herself to the medical profession, leaving her motherland and staying away from Gu Huai. At first, she would still think of these girlish feelings, but when she really saw the outside world and the misery of people in the war, these things became unimportant.

At first she really went there because she was avoiding Gu Huai, but now she really went there because she really liked it.

When talking about her career, Xiao Xiao didn't pay attention and chatted eloquently for nearly an hour. When she stopped, she realized that it was getting dark outside.

Xiao Xiao wanted to say something more, but someone knocked on the door outside.

Dahu thought of something and hurriedly opened the door. Sure enough, it was Gu Xiaoliu standing outside.

"Why are you here?" Dahu smiled, his eyebrows gentle.

Gu Xiaoliu picked up a lunch box and shook it: "Bring some food for our senior leader?"

She walked into the house quietly: "Agu, are you there too?"

Then, she looked up and saw Xiao Xiao.

There was a slight shock in her eyes, but she could easily hide it: "Xiao Xiao? Are you back?"

Xiao Xiao nodded slightly: "I won't stay too long. I just have something to do when I come back. I will leave in about half a month."

Gu Xiaoliu placed the lunch box on the table: "I brought some food, it should be enough for three people, let's try it, please?"

It is made according to Dahu's taste.

Xiao Xiao picked up a piece of crab roll and took a bite: "How is your store now?"

Gu Xiaoliu also failed to enter college. After graduation, he opened a small shop specializing in pastries.

With Gu Huai protecting her, she often closed her doors and went to study in various places, stealing some skills from her old masters.

Now Gu Xiaoliu's dim sum shop is quite famous and has opened several chain stores.

Of course she could drive more, but she is lazy and thinks this is good and there is no need to force herself to make so much money.

"It's good." Gu Xiaoliu said, "I don't have much future, I just want to stay with my family, eat some delicious food, and make delicious food for the people I like."

As she said that, she glanced at Dahu secretly, and Dahu smiled back.

Gu Huai: "You two are so disgusting. If you plan to fall in love now, Xiao Xiao and I will go out first."

Dahu smiled and pulled Gu Xiaoliu to his side: "How can we? After we get married, we will have plenty of time to fall in love, and I don't want you to watch."

The two of them were classmates for five or six years, and finally achieved enlightenment and will get married soon.

Xiao Xiao didn't know the news yet, so she raised her eyes a little surprised. She looked at Gu Xiaoliu and then at Dahu, and she understood.

"Bless you." she said.

After eating the crab roll in her hand, she lowered her head and said thank you, and pulled Gu Huai away from here: "My partner is here, let's not stand here and shine."

Gu Huai didn't comment and followed her slowly.

After the door closed behind him, Gu Huai heard the quarrel inside:

"Liuliu, are you angry?"

"without."

"You are really angry!"

"I said I'm not angry."

"Look, you're really angry. This crab roll is delicious. Would you like to take another bite?"

"roll!"

It's more of a flirtation than a quarrel, Gu Huai thought to himself.

Xiao Xiao walked up to the rooftop without leaving the company. She stood by the railing of the rooftop and saw Gu Huai following her from the corner of her eye.

Feeling a little surprised, she asked casually: "How have you been these past years?"

Gu Huai: "Not bad?"

He stood next to Xiao Xiao, and the breeze carried the scent of his clothes.

Xiao Xiao's breathing eased slightly, and he was looking for a topic when he heard Gu Huai speak:

"When I left, I said I wanted to calm down, but now I have achieved my goal?"

Xiao Xiao frowned, lowered his head and smiled: "I felt relieved before I saw you, but my heart will still be moved when I see you."

Facing Xiao Xiao's disguised confession, Gu Huai didn't show any surprise or shock on his face. He remained calm and calm: "I don't think you are that obsessed with this matter."

"Yeah." Xiao Xiao answered quickly this time, "There's a lot of artillery fire over there, and many people can't even save their lives let alone food. My little pretentiousness means nothing."

Once you have seen the bigger world, you will no longer stick to your own small loves.

Xiao Xiao felt that she was so sad because of these things in the past, and she was really cute and stupid.

Without anyone else, she was able to talk to Gu Huai more freely, and at the end she even said to him:

"I've been gone for so long, and I'm not familiar with many people and things. If you have time, would you like to go shopping with me?"

Xiao Xiao thought Gu Huai would refuse, but Gu Huai actually nodded: "Just come to me tomorrow."

Xiao Xiao stayed there in a daze, while Gu Huai had already walked away.

Of course Gu Huai will not have a quarrel with the heroine.

The heroine is the center of luck in this world. With her around, the world will not develop in a weird direction.

Besides, there is nothing wrong with Xiao Xiao herself. There is no need to make a bad face to a little girl and put on unnecessary pretense.

Of course, there is no need for me to accommodate her.

For example, if she wants to go shopping with him, she has to come over by herself and treat him to dinner.

The two of them sat in front of the steaming wonton shop and had a meal of wontons.

Uncle Mo, the owner of the wonton shop, smiled and replenished their bowls, adding that the meal was free of charge with unlimited refills.

"Don't you mean you want to retire?"

In the mist, Gu Huai lowered his head and asked Uncle Mo.

Uncle Mo was still smiling: "It's uncomfortable to have nothing to do in retirement. Anyway, I have money to open a small shop. I can't help it. I'm used to working hard in my life."

Gu Huai didn't answer. The wontons were so delicious.

"Xiaohuai Xiaoxiao, when will you find a partner? Then I will make wontons without salt for your children to eat."

Gu Huai: "..."

Sure enough, apart from urging marriage, parents in the world have nothing else to care about.
