They were finished, this was an indisputable fact... She should give up.
"After crying this time, don't cry again." Chu Shixiu said, reaching out to pull her into his arms. Gu Xiaoai blocked his hand and wiped the tears from her face with her fingers.
…
"Aai, I want to give you a shoulder to lean on. This is just a friend's shoulder. I have no other intention." She even rejected him?
Hasn't she given up on Li Juefeng?
"I know." Gu Xiaoai pursed her lips, "But if I can still stand up, I can only rely on my own strength..."
"We are friends."
"I will never rely on anyone else's shoulders again." Gu Xiaoai shook her head. From the beginning, she should not have relied too much on Li Juefeng's shoulders to the point of losing herself...
Chu Shixiu looked down at her, his eyes dark and his lips pursed tightly.
***************************
Chu Shixiu arranged for her a dozen maids to take care of her daily life. Gu Xiaoai was glad that she still had such a friend who took care of her so meticulously.
Gu Xiaoai was sitting in the bedroom of the seaside villa, and she could still hear the sound of waves and the calls of seabirds coming from the window.
Staring at the set of models on the table, she had not yet put together the scattered components.
Gu Xiaoai Film and Television Base, the dream he gave her.
No more fighting.
it's all over.
Opening the empty cabinet, Gu Xiaoai put a set of models in one by one, then locked the cabinet and threw the key out of the window...
Gu Xiaoai stood at the window, looking at the sea in the distance, with waves coming one after another.
Lowering her eyes, Gu Xiaoai looked at a patch of flowers downstairs where the maid was watering the flowers. Gu Xiaoai glanced twice and saw no trace of her keys being thrown away.
Where are the keys?
My heart suddenly panicked.
Gu Xiaoai rushed downstairs and ran out without thinking.
"Miss, where are you going?" Uncle He couldn't help but ask when he saw her running around.
Gu Xiaoai didn't answer him and rushed out the door. She searched everywhere but couldn't find it. Gu Xiaoai became anxious and stopped the maid who was watering the flowers. "I'm looking for something, don't water it yet."
"Yes, miss." The maid said respectfully and stood aside.
Gu Xiaoai knelt down and rummaged through the flowers to find the key. Where did it go? She just threw it away casually, so she wouldn't throw it far away... Why can't she find it?
How could I not find it...
The thorn on the flower pierced her finger, causing Gu Xiaoai to shrink her hand in pain and blood gushing out. Gu Xiaoai ignored it and continued to look for the key.
"What are you looking for?"
A gentle voice came.
Gu Xiaoai raised her head and saw Chu Shixiu standing outside the flower fence, facing the sun, making it difficult to see his face clearly.
What are you looking for?
Yes, what is she looking for? What else is she looking for if she threw it out?
"Nothing." Gu Xiaoai shook her head and stood up from the ground, her feet already covered with a thick layer of wet mud.
Chu Shixiu didn't ask any more questions and stretched out his hand to pull her out.
Gu Xiaoai retracted her hand and put it behind her back, "My hand is injured."
"..."
Gu Xiaoai stepped out of the fence by herself and asked as she walked, "Why are you here?"
"Can't I just see you if I have nothing to do?" Chu Shixiu asked with a smile, speaking in a normal way, and he did a good job of only maintaining the status of a friend.
Can't I just look at you when I'm fine?
Gu Xiaoai's eyes rolled. He came too frequently recently. Didn't he feel it? Or was she too sensitive recently?!
