Just as Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi were about to leave, they heard someone shout,""Little Mu, Mu Zixi."
The two girls looked back. Mu Zixi recognized Guo Lijian and said to Shen Xiangmi," A colleague from our company."
Mu Zixi said as she pulled Shen Xiangmi back."President Guo, I didn't expect to meet you here.”
There was a girl beside Guo Lijian. She took the initiative to hold Guo Lijian's arm. This girl was mischievous and her entire body exuded a playful aura. The reason why Mu Zixi thought so was because when Guo Lijian called her, she turned around and happened to meet the girl's eyes. The girl's eyes fell on Guo Lijian's face. Then, she tilted her head, smiled, and pursed her thin red lips. She blinked her watery eyes and looked at Shen Xiangmi from head to toe, as if she was afraid of missing any detail. After that, she stared at Shen Xiangmi seriously, and she did not hide her admiration. Mu Zixi thought that she must be Guo Lijian's girlfriend. Thinking of this, she felt inexplicably sad. Perhaps it was because Guo Lijian had helped her before, but she didn't know when she started to have delusions about him.
"Little Mu, it really is you. What a coincidence.”Guo Lijian saw Mu Zixi walking back and quickly walked up to her.
"It's the weekend, so I came over to get some fresh air.”Mu Zixi tried her best to calm down her subtle jealousy and pretended to be calm as she replied.
"And this is?" Guo Lijian looked at Shen Xiangmi politely and asked.
"My friend, Shen Xiangmi." Mu Zixi hurriedly introduced.
"Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Mu Zixi's colleague, Guo Lijian.”
"Hello," Shen Xiangmi replied indifferently. She felt the girl's scrutinizing gaze and was unhappy. For Mu Zixi, she endured it and cooperated with them to hide her emotions.
At this moment, the girl beside Guo Lijian could not help but stare at the beautiful Shen Xiangmi for dozens of seconds. She said loudly," Hi, hello. I'm Li Jian's girlfriend, Cai Xueqing.”As he spoke, he observed the changes in Mu and Shen's expressions.
"Hello," Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi replied in unison. Although Mu Zixi had already guessed it, hearing her confirm it, a sense of disappointment still unconsciously flashed past her heart.
"Don't talk nonsense." Guo Lijian's smiling face immediately turned cold as he gave her a crooked look.
"That's what it is!" Cai Xueqing retorted unhappily. Cai Xueqing saw that Guo Lijian was about to say something and immediately said,"The two of you are really telepathic. You're best friends, right?”After saying that, he sized up the two of them again with his small eyes.
"Yes, I am." Shen Xiangmi replied. She hated such occasions. She did not like to take the initiative to get to know people, especially men. She had hated Cai Xueqing before, but now that she saw something interesting about her, she agreed.
"I didn't expect a director like you to like to go to the park.”Mu Zixi didn't know what to talk about, so he asked. In her opinion, rich people would definitely go to famous mountains and rivers for tourism. It was rare for people to come to the park.
"He comes here often. He likes to come to the park to watch free performances.”Without waiting for Guo Lijian to answer, Cai Xueqing immediately rushed to reply. Guo Lijian smiled and didn't say anything. He thought of the old man, the piano, and the umbrella. This matter had always been like the sun in March, warm in his heart, but he had never mentioned it to anyone.
"It's pretty good to watch the mountains and rivers and listen to music.”Mu Zixi said.
"Although we haven't known each other for long, you understand me quite well.”Guo Lijian said happily. He suddenly had an impulse to tell Mu Zixi about the old man. He believed that Mu Zixi would like it, but it was definitely not right now.
"What? You mean I don't understand you? Did I say something wrong?”Cai Xueqing pouted her little mouth and pulled Guo Lijian over to question him coquettishly.
"I said it by accident, don't mind me.”Mu Zixi was a little embarrassed. She looked at Cai Xueqing sincerely and explained. She originally only wanted to break the awkwardness and use her own ideas to push the blame onto others and help Guo Lijian take off the label of being greedy. He didn't expect to make Cai Xueqing unhappy. She averted her gaze from the intimate couple and looked at Shen Xiangmi.
Shen Xiangmi was looking into the distance, deep in her thoughts. It would be wonderful if she could walk with Jiang Qing in such a place. No, there was no need for such a place. Any place would be especially beautiful if she was with Jiang Qing! She looked around seriously, as if she could see Jiang Qing as long as she looked carefully. She knew that Jiang Qing was also in Xiangfu. Perhaps he would really miraculously appear in front of her? However, other than Mu Zixi, who was chatting happily, she could not see anyone else who could surprise her. For example, her primary school classmates whom she had not seen for many years, her playmates in the village, her colleagues whom she had just met, let alone Jiang Qing. She retracted her gaze in disappointment and could not help but sigh. The world was really too big sometimes. It was not easy to meet an acquaintance by chance! She wanted to go home now, but she couldn't force Mu Zixi to do so. She could only stare at the afterglow calmly, hoping that they would end soon.
Mu Zixi looked at the setting sun at the edge of the city and then looked at Shen Xiangmi."My friend is going home, so I won't chat anymore.”It was considered a farewell to Guo Lijian.
With Cai Xueqing around, Guo Lijian felt uncomfortable chatting with Mu Zixi, so he said,"Alright." It was the first time Guo Lijian had such a feeling. He hoped that there would be no one else when he was chatting with a girl, not even his sister.
After saying goodbye, Cai Xueqing and Guo Lijian went to another part of the park. Mu Zixi and Shen Xiangmi chatted while Guo Lijian went home. In the past, Mu Zixi was a little shy when she talked about Guo Lijian. Now that she knew that he had a girlfriend, she had completely cut off all her previous thoughts. Her heart was at ease and she only saw him as her benefactor. Instead, she could talk about him calmly and openly.
"Zi Xi, he's the one who's been helping you.”
"Yes, that's right. If it weren't for him, I would have lost my job long ago. I really should thank him.”
"He's quite young."
"Yes."
"He's not bad."
"It's pretty good."
"Then you and him…"
Before Shen Xiangmi could finish, Mu Zixi interrupted,""We're just ordinary friends." She had fallen in love with a married man in the past. Now, she did not want others to feel that she had a good impression of someone who had a girlfriend.
"Yes, it's good to have such a friend.”Although Cai Xueqing said that she was Guo Lijian's girlfriend, Shen Xiangmi felt that it was not. She felt that Guo Lijian had a good impression of Mu Zixi. Not to mention that he had never helped her, Shen Xiangmi could clearly feel a little tenderness in his eyes when he looked at her, which was different from when he looked at others. The two of them were quite compatible. However, since Mu Zixi said so, Shen Xiangmi thought that perhaps she did not like Guo Lijian. After all, he was just average looking. She was not sure if he was Mu Zixi's type. She did not care about him, so she did not say anything more.
Mu Zixi thought to herself that she would treat him as her brother or Lan Yan in the future. Perhaps liking him was just a tiny sign. Moreover, he had such an innocent and beautiful woman by his side. It was not sad that the sign would disappear.
"Xueqing, don't tell anyone that I'm your boyfriend in the future.”Guo Lijian immediately said seriously after the two of them walked away.
"Alright, I know. Is that why you care so much about her? I told you before that you're not that abnormal.”
"What are you talking about? You're a woman. You're already so old, but you still like to joke around. Be careful that you won't be able to get married in the future.”
"You don't have to worry."
"You're not allowed to use the name Cai Xueqing in the future. Why don't you use the name Guo Xueqing that Dad and Mom gave you?”
"Aiya, I like to take Godfather's surname. Didn't Mom and Dad often say that my surname is Cai?”
"Also, don't make such jokes in front of others. I'm your brother. Do you think it's fun to tease people like that?”
"Well, it's their fault for not having good taste. They can't even tell that we're siblings.”
"You and I don't look alike at all.”
"Brother, you've always been biased towards the outside.”Guo Xueqing complained.
"You're too mischievous. If you weren't in a bad mood today, I would have taught you a lesson.”Guo Lijian said angrily. In fact, he was just saying it. No matter what the situation was, he had never taught his sister a lesson. This was not only because she was younger than him, but also because she was a woman.
"You clearly like her. Then you should have confessed earlier. Why are you so angry at me? I was in a better mood, but now I'm back to normal.”As Guo Xueqing spoke, her tears kept flowing down like broken beads.
"You're too willful. No wonder Luo Yiping wanted to break up with you.”
"Brother, if you don't poke my scar, you'll die. He broke up with me because of Gu Ruyi. Her family is rich. Don't you understand?”Guo Xueqing wiped her tears and glared at Guo Lijian angrily. Actually, she knew that was not the case. She just wanted to save face, so she could only say that.
"You've been spoiled by your family. You still don't know how to repent.”
Guo Xueqing's heart ached and she did not continue. In fact, Luo Yiping had never treated her as a girlfriend. At most, he treated her as a brother. From the beginning to the end, love was just her wishful thinking. She originally thought that it was because of Jin Cheng. She thought that one day, he would fall for her. Later, because she was sick, Luo Yiping met her good friend, Gu Ruyi. Soon, Luo Yiping and Gu Ruyi became public boyfriends. She had to give up and announce to her family that she had broken up with Luo Yiping. She was unwilling, she was reluctant, but she could not hurt the two people she cared about the most. In the end, she let go sadly and asked her brother to accompany her to relax. She did not expect it to end up like this.
Sigh! Gu Ruyi's good friends were so telepathic. Why did Gu Ruyi never know that she loved Luo Yiping? Why did her good friends not understand her? When Guo Xueqing thought of this, she felt so wronged that she cried again.
Guo Lijian was very angry, but after walking around and seeing Guo Xueqing still crying, his heart softened. He walked over and said,"Xueqing, it's late. Let's go home!" If you change, you will definitely meet a better one in the future.”
Guo Xueqing did not move or make a sound. She, who was usually the most talkative, only wanted to be silent now.
"Woof, woof, woof." Suddenly, a khaki-colored puppy appeared out of nowhere. It revealed a fierce expression and took a few steps back and forth at Guo Xueqing. It barked back and forth, scaring her so much that she hid behind her brother. Guo Lijian picked up a stone and said to the puppy,"Go, go quickly."
When the puppy saw the stone, it left unwillingly.
"Brother, what kind of world is this? Even a puppy wants to bully me. Am I really that annoying?”Guo Xueqing saw the puppy walk away and sobbed with tears.
"It's not that I want to criticize you, but you're going to fuss over a dog. Can you be happy like this? Can it bring happiness to others?" He had wanted to say,'If I'm not happy with you, who would want to be with you?'However, he swallowed his words. Although he wanted to persuade her, he was afraid that he would poke into her pain.
"Brother, you saw it too. Why did it only bark at me and not anyone else?”
"Because you're wearing a red dress, it's eye-catching. Alright, go home, everything will be fine.”
"Alright, brother, thank you.”Guo Xueqing followed her brother back. Not only was she not in a good mood, but she was even more depressed. She did not want to lose her two good friends, Gu Ruyi and Luo Yiping, and she did not want to see them together. She still could not figure out what she should do. In the end, she let out a long sigh of relief. If she didn't know what to do, she wouldn't do anything. She would let time fade away! She finally felt a little relieved, and her heart did not dissipate in vain.
