The Consequence of Provoking a Crazy Beauty [GL]

Chapter 95

Gu Siyu scolded him casually, venting her frustration. She didn't intend to blame Chen Tao. After Chen Tao thought about it, he found her words made sense. "Well, I'll think about it."

After the call, Gu Siyu turned back to see Huo Junxian standing up, her eyes red but no longer lifeless.

"Where are you going?" Huo Junxian's voice was hoarse but no longer as lifeless as before.

"Upstairs," Gu Siyu pointed upstairs.

"Okay." Huo Junxian's voice was raspy but lacked the previous lifelessness.

Gu Siyu followed her upstairs. Transitioning from one state to another could be painful, and thoughts of giving up would keep emerging.

From the speed at which Huo Junxian walked, it was evident that she alternated between fast and slow, her gaze carefully avoiding anything that might trigger her emotions.

"Open the wardrobe," Gu Siyu instructed her.

Huo Junxian opened the wardrobe and then paused, asking for help to adjust the wind-up key behind her.

"Pick a dress you want to wear and come with me later." When Huo Junxian was about to open the door, Gu Siyu added, "You're not allowed to wear this outfit. Changing into something that lifts your mood. Wear something pretty."

Huo Junxian chose a white spring outfit—a white coat paired with white trousers, giving off a serene appearance.

"Very good."

First, fix the surface, and then slowly adjust what's inside.

After changing clothes, Huo Junxian walked step by step. She hugged Gu Siyu tightly, their faces pressed against each other. She rubbed against Gu Siyu, tears making her face sticky. Gu Siyu swallowed her breath, licking her lips. The room remained draped in curtains because they were changing clothes.

Dim and dark, barely any light visible.

Huo Junxian hugged her for a long time. Gu Siyu felt like she had become smaller and thinner, an object in her arms. Gu Siyu closed her eyes and asked, "Feeling better?"

After Huo Junxian nodded, Gu Siyu took her to wash her face and then fetched helmets. Huo Junxian packed some things to take with them.

Gu Siyu didn't stop Huo Junxian. She stuffed the dog leash that Huo Junxian was holding tightly into her pocket and led her out of the house.

Because of the haze of revisiting the day before the farewell, Huo Junxian selectively avoided looking at Teddy's grave. Gu Siyu was afraid she would forget where Xiao Yu had been laid to rest.

Huo Junxian's gaze directly looked over. The grave surrounded by small colorful stones had a few fallen leaves on it. One could imagine that the flowers in the grave had withered.

The flowers in the yard had bloomed abundantly, but they lacked care, now entangled with thorns and various wild vines.

Gu Siyu mounted the motorcycle. "Put on the helmet."

Huo Junxian complied, pulling down her goggles, sitting behind Gu Siyu, hands gripping her waist.

Gu Siyu had taken Huo Junxian on the motorcycle many times before. Teddy would often be nestled between them. Now, with Teddy gone, there was suddenly an emptiness, and both of them found it difficult to adjust.

After driving for a while, Gu Siyu sensed Huo Junxian sobbing, her voice low. Huo Junxian thought Gu Siyu couldn't see and didn't bother to wipe her face, tears accumulating in her eyes.

Gu Siyu slowed the motorcycle down, giving her enough time to grieve.

However, her estimation was off. In this season, the weather was still chilly, and Gu Siyu hadn't worn leg warmers. Her knees were almost numb from the cold.
