As soon as he opened the door, Gu Ci was standing at the door, dragging a suitcase beside him. The moment the young man saw her, a trace of grievance flashed in his eyes.
Lu Jingyu was a little surprised to see it was him, and also saw a flash of grievance on Gu Ci's face.
"Come in quickly." She quickly led the person through the door.
Something must have happened to the Gu family, she guessed in her mind, and led the people to the living room to sit down.
Lu Jingyu brought a glass of warm water and handed it to Gu Ci's hand. He said in a lighter tone, "What happened?"
After taking a closer look, I noticed that Gu Ci's eyes were slightly red. Had he cried?
When she came to this conclusion, her heart tightened and she looked at Gu Ci with concern. After all, she had watched Gu Ci grow up.
Gu Ci said nothing, lowered his head, and kept staring at the water in his hand. His cold fingers were gradually warmed by the warm water.
He didn't want to tell his sister why he came, and he didn't want to let her know about the bad things at home and make her feel burdened.
Lu Jingyu didn't rush to urge him, and looked at him quietly. This brother had always been obedient and well-behaved. She didn't need to worry at all when she was around. What happened that made him take the initiative to find him?
After a while, Gu Ci opened his mouth, his voice a little hoarse, "Sister, I want to drop out of school."
He raised his hand and took a sip of water.
Dropping out of school was a big deal and he couldn't do it himself, but he thought about it seriously, so he spoke to Lu Jingyu.
Lu Jingyu frowned. Gu Ci was already in his senior year of high school this year and was about to graduate from the college entrance examination in more than one semester. Dropping out of school at this time was not a wise move.
In the end what happened?
"Gu Ci, tell sister, what happened?" She added, "If there is a problem, it must be solved, right?"
Lu Jingyu's concerned tone made Gu Ci feel sore in his nose. He reluctantly said to Lu Jingyu: "A classmate framed me for stealing money at school. When I got into trouble with the teacher, the teacher went to find my parents.
It just so happened that my parents just took Lu Jingyi home today. When Lu Jingyi found out about this, she kept saying that my hands and feet were dirty. I had a quarrel with her and came out."
After he finished speaking, his nose still felt a little sour and he couldn't help but take a breath. Lu Jingyu quickly took out a stack of tissues and handed them to him.
Although Gu Ci grew up in the countryside, he was also temperamental. Of course he couldn't stand being framed by outsiders and insulted by Lu Jingyi when he returned home.
A teenage child is in a rebellious stage. Outsiders accuse him unfairly, but his family does not help him and even questions his character.
After Gu Ci suffered so much grievance, he couldn't help but compare the gap between Lu Jingyi and Lu Jingyu.
"She treated me badly and was so unjustly accused. I told her that there is no sister like her. My only sister is you, and then...then she slapped me."
"When her parents saw her taking action, her mother scolded her, which made her unhappy, and then they started fighting."
No one was convinced by the other, both sides started to fight, and the house was in chaos.
Gu Ci didn't want to think about that home anymore. It was full of abuse and violence, and there was no warmth like an ordinary family. They used to live in the country, but at least at that time they were just poor and their lives were peaceful.
Gu Ci couldn't stand their life and their family, so he took advantage of the chaos and ran away from home.
Lu Jingyu looked a little ugly as she listened to Gu Ci's story. She could completely imagine what a chaotic scene it was like in Gu Ci's home at that time.
