Chapter 171 (Remorse)
The child was angry, and the consequences were very serious, but Gu Chaochao was a dead pig and was not afraid of boiling water, so he took this opportunity to concentrate on the company's affairs first, and then went to him after he was done.
And when her video call passed, it had been two days since Shen Mushen hung up the phone.
48 hours is neither short nor long, Gu Chaochao speculated that he would not answer his own phone calls, but he connected as soon as the phone rang.
When he saw the familiar face on the phone screen, Gu Chaochao's eyes flashed with surprise: "Are you willing to take it?"
Shen Mushen looked at her silently with a stern face.
Gu Chaochao laughed dryly: "Are you still angry?"
Shen Mushen snorted softly.
Gu Chaochao's eyes flashed a bit of strangeness. I don't blame her, since she came to this world, it was the first time that Shen Mushen had lost his temper with her. Like a soft kitten, people couldn't help but want to be funny.
Gu Chaochao pretended to be regretful and sighed: "I wanted to talk to you more, but since you are still angry, then forget it."
After speaking, he pretended to hang up the phone.
Shen Mu was in a hurry, and quickly said, "No!"
Gu Chaochao stopped decisively: "Okay, no."
Seeing her like this, even an idiot could see that she was deliberately playing tricks on herself. Shen Mu looked at her with a stern face for a long time, and the circles of his eyes were red again.
Gu Chaochao realized that he was in trouble, and hurriedly coaxed people: "Obey, don't cry, sister is wrong, sister knows wrong, I'm sorry Mushen..."
"No apology." Shen Mushen frowned.
Gu Chaochao was helpless: "Is it okay to apologize?"
Shen Mu looked at her with a stern face, and it seemed that it was not very good. Gu Chaochao had no choice but to resign: "Then I won't apologize."
Shen Mushen was satisfied, and after adjusting his emotions, he slowly said, "I don't like anyone else."
Gu Chaochao's eyes moved slightly.
"Listen to your words, make more friends, but I don't like others," Shen Mu looked at her face and said eagerly, "I only like my sister."
Like a glass of spicy mulled wine, it flows through the throat and into the stomach, along with it. The whole body is warm. Gu Chaochao looked at him for a while, and then smiled: "Thank you Mushen."
Shen Mushen looked at her silently, obviously wanting to hear more than that.
Gu Chaochao raised his lips: "What you want to hear can only be said when you are twenty years old."
"Can you really say it?" Shen Mushen asked seriously.
Gu Chaochao nodded: "Of course."
Shen Mushen was suddenly happy again.
After hanging up the phone and holding the mobile phone for a while, he reluctantly walked out with the book in his arms. The school where he is now is only a 30-minute walk from Wu Chang's villa, so even if he goes to school, he has been living in the villa.
But he still quietly rented a small house near the school. Usually, when the class is full, he eats lunch and takes a nap there, and most of the time it is empty.
Not for anything else, but only for Gu Chaochao to visit him again in the future, so that he might have a place to live.
He didn't hide the rent from Wu Chang and the others, and it was Zhou Cang's help to sign the contract in the end, so his attitude towards Zhou Cang has been much better recently.
Of course, the more reason for being good to Zhou Cang is that Zhou Cang recently fell in love, a passionate and unrestrained woman, a completely different type from Gu Chaochao.
"Mu Shen, are you going to class?" Zhou Cang, who was about to go out on a date, saw him and greeted him warmly.
Shen Mushen nodded obediently, holding the book and continuing to walk out.
Zhou Cang clicked his tongue and turned his head to look at Wu Chang who was drinking coffee: "See, I'm getting more and more passionate about me."
"...It seems that our definitions of passion are different." Wu Chang gave him a sideways glance. .
Zhou Cang laughed suddenly, and ran directly to the yard to stop Shen Mushen who was walking away quickly: "Don't go! I'll see you off by the way!"
Of course it's better not to walk by himself, Shen Mushen stopped decisively.
Usually a 30-minute walk, it only takes a few minutes to rub a car. When Shen Mu entered the classroom, there was no one around. He lowered his eyes, put the textbook on the table, turned to the part to be learned today, and started to preview.
"You're probably the only college student in the school who can preview." A
joking voice sounded, Shen Mu looked up deeply, it was the girl he often mentioned to Gu Chaochao before, and the source of their quarrel.
After seeing who it was, Shen Mushen nodded to the person, then lowered his head and continued to read.
The girl was used to it. After sitting next to him, she peeked at him a few times, and finally put a milk candy on his table: "Do you like sweets?"
"Thank you." Shen Mushen took it and started Peel the candy paper.
Everything he does shows a serious and down-to-earth energy. Even when peeling the candy paper, he will first observe the packaging of the candy in a proper manner, and then use light force along the sawtooth.
Under the sun, his drooping eyelashes cast a small shadow under his eyes, and his excellent facial features are like the most perfect work created by a sculptor, making people not consciously attracted to them at first glance.
There were noises from outside the classroom, but there were always only the two of them in the classroom. The girl's cheeks gradually turned red, and it took a while before she carefully said, "Can I...can I tell you something?"
"Speak." Shen Mushen said, putting the milk candy in her mouth.
"I like you." The girl summoned her courage.
Shen Mu was deeply stunned.
"...We come from the same place, we have a common language, and we are very angry with each other. The most important thing is that we are both single, do you want to think about it?" After the girl finished speaking, she held her breath and looked at Shen Mushen.
Frankly speaking, although she was nervous at the moment, she didn't think Shen Mushen would reject her. After all, as she said, they were probably the most suitable people in the world.
Shen Mushen was still in a daze, and it took a while for him to regain his senses, and a trace of panic finally flashed in his eyes.
"Are you going to agree?" The girl's eyes sparkled.
However, in the next second, Shen Mushen took out the melted milk candy in her mouth in front of her, and stuffed it back into the candy wrapper stiffly.
Girl: "?"
"Give it back to you." After Shen Mushen finished speaking, he seriously handed the candy to her.
Girl: "..."
Seeing that she didn't answer, Shen Mushen glanced at the sticky candy wrapper again, and finally realized that it was inappropriate. After hesitating, he said, "I'll buy another piece for you."
"...I don't agree . If you don't agree, why are you so disgusting!" The girl finally turned into anger and rushed out with a blushing face.
Shen Mushen watched her disappear innocently, and it took a long time before she looked at the candy in her hand again... She couldn't eat it. He threw it into the trash can with a serious face, then went to the downstairs supermarket to buy a pack before class, took out one and put it in the girl's pencil case.
That night, as soon as he got home, he made a video call to Gu Chaochao.
As soon as Gu Chaochao connected, he said seriously, "I'm sorry."
"...Huh?" Gu Chaochao looked blank.
Shen Mu pursed his lips deeply, and told what happened today, and then a trace of guilt flashed in his eyes: "Did my sister guess that before asking me that?"
Gu Chaochao: "..." No, he just asked casually.
"I will keep my distance in the future," Shen Mushen thought for a while, and then added, "Make more friends, but keep your distance."
Gu Chaochao blinked, before slowly opening his mouth after a while, "If you insist... …It’s okay, but be careful not to hurt your friends, of course, the most important thing is your own feelings, don’t make friends for the sake of making friends, listen to your inner opinions.”
Some people are naturally good at sociability, others People are born to be alone, and Shen Mushen belongs to the latter, but it has reached the point of affecting normal life, so she hopes that he can go out more.
But the premise of everything is to make him happy.
Shen Mu deeply understood what she meant and nodded seriously.
Day by day, the two people who are separated by thousands of mountains and rivers live and keep in touch with each other, and gradually get used to this kind of life.
Since discovering that Shen Mushen's separation anxiety is serious, Gu Chaochao gave up the idea of seeing him, lest it make him happy for three days and suffering for a week. Even so, time flies by quickly, and in a blink of an eye, it's the new summer vacation.
"I still can't go back this year." Shen Mushen was very disappointed. Since his World War I fame last summer, his life has been filled with visits and art-world gatherings, making each summer extraordinarily busy.
Gu Chaochao reassured: "Wu Chang told me to let you come back in September."
His twentieth birthday was in September.
Thinking of what birthday means, Shen Mushen cheered up a little, but couldn't help but feel lost: "Sister, I miss you so much."
"Good boy, we'll meet soon." Gu Chaochao continued to comfort.
Shen Mu pouted deeply and suddenly complained, "You don't even miss me."
Gu Chaochao: "?"
"If I don't go back, I won't bother you again," Shen Mushen said, and began to feel wronged, "Of course I'm happy that you don't have to deal with me."
Gu Chaochao: "...Student Shen Mushen, don't make trouble unreasonably."
Shen Mu has a stern face and does not speak.
Gu Chaochao sighed and quietly accompanied him in a daze.
After an unknown amount of time, he suddenly softened like a deflated balloon: "I'm sorry sister, I shouldn't be angry with you."
"Sister misses you too." Gu Chaochao's eyes softened.
Shen Mu pursed his lips: "But you don't come to see me."
"If it wasn't for me every time I watched you, you would have been sad for days, and I would have gone." Gu Chaochao expressed his injustice.
Shen Mu looked at her with deep eyes: "But if you come tomorrow, I will start to be happy today."
Gu Chaochao: "..."
Shen Mushen, who has to say that there is no language barrier, is very scary. He was hooked to book a ticket, and it was too late when he realized that he was too impulsive.
In desperation, I had to do all the work that was supposed to be done in advance and set aside a week to see him.
On the day Gu Chaochao arrived, he happened to arrive at Shen Mushen's school to hold an exhibition. Although Shen Mushen did not usually participate in these activities, as one of the school's most famous alumni, he still had to stay at the exhibition as a mascot at all times.
It's just that today's mascot was absent-minded and was about to leave within an hour. The classmates hurriedly grabbed him: "Why are you going?"
"Pick up your girlfriend," he replied.
The classmate was stunned: "When did you have a girlfriend?"
"September." The
classmate was surprised: "Why have I never heard of you? Was it last September?"
"This September." The
classmate: "..." Hasn't that come yet?
He silently watched Shen Mushen run away, and when someone came to ask where Shen Mushen was going, he just said 'pick up his girlfriend', so before Gu Chaochao arrived, the identity tag had already been posted.
This exhibition is very important to the school and is one of the best opportunities for many students to present to investors. Although Shen Mushen didn't need to display it in this way, he still took out a painting and hung it on the exhibition.
After Gu Chaochao followed him to the school, the first thing he did was to take Gu Chaochao to see the painting.
"This time it's not two hands," Gu Chaochao looked at the overly simple composition on the drawing board, his lips always smiling, "But isn't this painting a bit too perfunctory? It's just an arc and a red dot. ."
She is a businessman in this world, and she doesn't know anything about this kind of art. After looking at it for a long time, she can only see that there is a blank space above the arc, and the flesh pink is painted under the arc, but the proportion of meat powder is very high. Less, as if reluctant to use paint.
When she said that, a laugh suddenly came from the side, and Gu Chaochao looked over in confusion, it was a bright-looking girl.
"Mu Shen painted half of a woman's shoulders. She used less material because she was reluctant to show more. Didn't you feel the love of fisting and fisting in this painting?" Showing contempt for the ignorant, "Mushen's paintings always break the rules, but they can show infinite tension. Not surprisingly, he will definitely be one of the greatest painters in the world."
She heard that Shen Mushen I brought my girlfriend here, so I came to check it out. When I saw Gu Chaochao, I was amazed at first, and then I realized that she should be a few years older than them. This ordinary dress on her body is the latest version of a luxury brand. The money, at least six figures.
She felt awkward in her heart, and when Gu Chaochao couldn't understand the content of the painting, this awkwardness turned into contempt.
Gu Chaochao blinked, looked at it again, and finally recognized that it was a shoulder. That shoulder was a little red... Gu Chaochao stared at it for a long time, and finally narrowed his eyes to look at Shen Mushen: "What's going on?"
Shen Mushen's ears were flushed and he didn't dare to answer.
The girl frowned: "The human body is something that every creator can draw. When we paint these things, we are full of respect. You are the artist's girlfriend, so you should understand this, right?" I
can't hear her hostility anymore , Gu Chaochao is really a fool.
However, at this age, he was too lazy to care about children, so Gu Chaochao just smiled.
The girl pulled the corners of her lips and was about to continue to persuade her to be more generous, when Shen Mushen next to her suddenly admitted her mistake: "Sister, I'm sorry." The
girl's eyelids jumped: "What do you have to apologize for? Besides, even if it's..."
"I shouldn't have painted you, I even took it out for an exhibition." Shen Mu said the second half of the sentence.
The girl lost her voice for a second, her cheeks seemed to be slapped, and she suddenly became hot.
"I just drew a little bit." Shen Mushen was still cautious.
Gu Chaochao didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "I'm not angry with you, I can still accept this." After speaking, she thought that the girl's painting is also normal. In order to prevent herself from becoming the object of Shen Mushen's exhibition in the future, she reminded again, "In the future You can also draw me, but don't be too explicit, you know? I don't want to be seen too much."
"Yes," Shen Mushen nodded quickly, "I can't bear it."
Gu Chaochao was satisfied.
The girl watched the close interaction between the two, and after standing stiffly for a while, she was directly pulled away by the classmates who couldn't stand it any longer.
After she left, Gu Chaochao gave her back a straight look.
"She used to like me," Shen Mushen explained actively, "now she doesn't."
Fool. Gu Chaochao raised the corners of his lips, did not answer him, but changed the second question: "Can you ask me, why do they all know that I am your girlfriend?"
Shen Mushen said: " "..."
"Classmate Shen Mushen, you are not being honest." Gu Chaochao folded his arms.
Shen Mushen's face was calm: "...Anyway, there are still two months, it's all the same."
Gu Chaochao snorted and wanted to say something, but he was dragged away by him.
After walking around the school for two hours, Gu Chaochao was already tired. He thought that he would first find a hotel to avoid the jet lag, but Shen Mushen followed step by step, unwilling to be alone.
Seeing his classmates waiting eagerly, Gu Chaochao hesitated but stopped: "Forget it, just stay for a while."
"No, you're tired." Instead, Shen Mushen became the one who insisted.
Gu Chaochao was helpless: "Do you still know that I'm tired? Can't you be more obedient? I'll find a hotel to rest first, you stay and do your business, and it's better to go to me when it's over, why do you have to follow along?
" I'm going to follow." Shen Mushen was so frightened that he couldn't help.
Gu Chaochao twitched the corner of his mouth, and finally sat down in the small shed of their academy: "You go to work, I'll rest here."
Shen Mushen refused.
Gu Chaochao immediately narrowed his eyes: "Shen Mushen..."
Shen Mushen turned his head and left.
The classmates who witnessed it immediately laughed: "Mushen actually still has such a fresh time."
"Mushen?" Gu Chaochao heard that the tone of the last word was different from that of Shen Mushen's name.
The classmate nodded hurriedly: "God of immortals, he is too powerful. He has good grades, talent, and teacher likes, so we gave this nickname."
Gu Chaochao nodded clearly, and suddenly regretted that he didn't save face just now.
After all, it's the God of Twilight. She endured it, and then she didn't laugh out loud.
Gu Chaochao stayed in the shed, Shen Mushen was absent-minded about what he did, and finally was driven away by his classmates because he made two mistakes in a row.
He couldn't ask for it, he turned his head and ran in the direction of the shed.
Looking at his cheerful back, a classmate clicked his tongue: "The power of love."
The girl who liked Shen Mushen moved her eyebrows slightly, but she finally bit her lip and gave up completely.
The weather was hot, when Shen Mushen ran into the shed, a thin layer of sweat was already on his face, but he didn't care, rushed to Gu Chaochao and said seriously: "It's time to go."
Gu Chaochao smiled, He stretched out his hand.
Shen Mushen immediately held her and dragged her out.
The two walked out of the crowd and attracted countless attention. Gu Chaochao was a little shy at first, always afraid that he would be regarded as an old cow eating young grass. Fortunately, the students in the art circle were warm and informal, not only did they have no regard for her age. Care, but do not hesitate to praise.
It was Shen Mu who sensed something was wrong with her, and when she got to a place with few people, she immediately asked, "What's wrong with you?"
"I..." Gu Chaochao hesitated, not knowing what to say, but after meeting his gaze, he decided to speak. , "I'm thirty this year, and you are only twenty."
Shen Mu was stunned for a moment, and her expression became tense: "Do you think I'm not worthy of you?"
Gu Chaochao: "..." How did you come to this conclusion ? ?
There is still more than a month until his birthday in September, and any abnormality can make him face a big enemy. For example, at this moment, he suddenly raised his face and threatened: "You can't go back."
"I didn't go back." The slight inferiority complex that he gave birth to was also disturbed by him, "Forget it, let's not talk about this."
"I really don't regret it?" Shen Mushen refused to let her go easily, and kept asking this question along the way.
Gu Chaochao was forced to be helpless by him, and suddenly stopped to look at him.
Shen Mu was suddenly nervous, and his Adam's apple moved: "You're going to regret it now..."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Chaochao had already held his face and kissed him.
Shen Mushen's eyes widened abruptly, as if he had been put on a body talisman and would not move. Gu Chaochao didn't respond for a long time after kissing.
"Stupid?" Gu Chaochao looked at him with a smile.
Shen Mushen looked at her for a while, then said, "I rented a house near the school."
Gu Chaochao: "?"
"There is everything there, you don't need to stay in a hotel." Shen Mushen said seriously.
Although they came out of school to find a place to live, there is nothing wrong with talking about this topic at this time... But are you sure you want to talk about this? Gu Chaochao was speechless for a long time, and finally nodded silently.
The next way, the two of them suddenly fell silent. If it wasn't for Shen Mushen holding their hands, he wouldn't let go of sweating. Gu Chaochao really thought he was afraid of him.
The house that Shen Mushen rented was only a few minutes away from the school, and the two arrived soon after.
It is a small apartment, more than 40 square meters, small and warm, and there are many personal things in it, which are prepared by Shen Mushen himself.
After Gu Chaochao entered the room, he turned around and raised his eyebrows after seeing the familiar pattern and color of the bed sheet: "This thing looks familiar, it won't be bought like something from my house..."
Before he finished speaking, a strong force suddenly turned She dragged her into her arms, and before Gu Chaochao returned to his senses, he bumped into her lips.
It's really bumping, stumbling rashly, eagerly and without measure. Gu Chaochao snorted in pain, but still hugged his waist.
This was the first kiss in the true sense. After the initial impulse, Shen Mushen suddenly became timid again. In the end, it was Gu Chaochao's guidance to end the kiss smoothly.
The kiss ended, the two separated, and when they looked at each other quietly, they could only hear each other's breathing.
"...It's not even September yet?" Gu Chaochao said suddenly.
Shen Mu swallowed deeply, and it took a while to speak with difficulty: "You kissed me just now too."
Gu Chaochao: "..." Co-authoring is hers.
After being speechless for a moment, she taught again, "You should have brought the time forward."
Shen Mushen's eyes lit up.
"But it's too late, you've already missed this opportunity." Gu Chaochao smiled, admiring his suddenly regretful expression.
