Delayed confession

It was drizzling outside the window. The air was filled with mist. The autumn wind brought the water vapor and blew on the window, condensing into crystal clear water droplets that slid silently on the glass.

Xu Weixi got up to close the window, looked at the dark clouds gradually approaching the horizon, and sighed, "It's rainy this autumn."

Then he continued to sit at his desk, drinking coffee and answering all kinds of strange questions raised by book fans, with a slight smile on his face.

"Auntie, I'm back."

Hearing the sound of the door opening, she knew that Shen Ruoxuan had returned, so she stood up and took a notebook from the bookshelf.

Open the door and go out,

But when he saw Gu Mochuan behind Shen Ruoxuan, he stopped for a moment.

During this period of time, Gu Mochuan has been appearing around her, but he didn't make any other moves, as if they were encountering by chance. But if it was an encounter once, how could it be an encounter every time?

But Gu Mochuan just said hello and went into Shen Ruoxuan's room as he did before.

Xu Weixi retracted her gaze and handed the notebook to Shen Ruoxuan naturally, "This is the note I sorted out for you. Come to me to exchange for the next one after you finish reading it."

The boy looked at the thick notebook, probably influenced by the approaching college entrance examination, and he rarely refused. He took it obediently and said thank you.

After Xu Weixi poured himself a glass of water, he went back to his room to continue writing the manuscript.

She didn't know that in addition to its original function, her notes also helped Shen Ruoxuan earn a considerable amount of extra money.

……

"Teacher Gu, how come you fell behind in the reserve while I was out? Do you know the guy my aunt is dating now?" Shen Ruoxuan threw his coat on the bed and asked with a gossipy look on his face.

"Colleagues from the same company but different departments." Gu Mochuan was also a little helpless.

"Or... beat him up, quietly, and make him leave my aunt." Hearing the boy's instigation, Gu Mochuan was actually a little moved. Fortunately, his IQ brought by age had not been bewitched.

"Don't you think your aunt will see through it? She's seen this trick before in high school."

The man shook his head and took out his laptop from his bag. He had made a wrong question system for Shen Ruoxuan these days.

"Use your aunt's notes to answer the questions here. Answer one set for me first."

Looking at the college entrance examination handbook in front of him, the boy who had finished the test paper couldn't help but sigh, "You two are really a perfect match. You all have the same approach to solving problems."

Of course, his method of solving the problem was the one submitted by Xu Weixi.

The man looked out the window at the bare branches with an aggrieved look, without saying a word.

"By the way, it's my aunt's birthday the day after tomorrow. Have you prepared a gift?"

"Isn't it tomorrow?" Gu Mochuan looked away and questioned. He took out the birthday present he had prepared long ago from his bag.

He remembered that one time the class celebrated a classmate's birthday, and her birthday happened to be the beginning of winter.

Shen Ruoxuan looked at it and flipped through the calendar, then said "oh", he had remembered it wrong.

"Then why don't you go back tonight? Stay in my room first. We'll give my aunt a surprise tomorrow."

Shen Ruoxuan said excitedly as he looked at the exquisite thermos cup in front of him.

Gu Mochuan was worried that Xu Weixi would not accept his gift, so he did not buy anything special. He thought that common daily necessities would be passed on to his subordinates through Shen Ruoxuan's hands, so he specially brought them here today.

"I can't stay here anymore. Give this cup to your aunt tomorrow, in your name."

Looking at the sad teacher Gu, the boy hated his aunt's boyfriend whom he had never met even more.

Although I have never seen her, but every time I hear the eldest son in my family mention her, he has a look of disgust on his face. She is definitely not as good-looking as Teacher Gu.

"Teacher Gu, don't give up. It's not the last moment yet." Shen Ruoxuan said with some concern.

Teacher Gu is so nice, handsome and rich. When he walks into the school, I wonder how many people will turn around and look at him.

Shen Ruoxuan was still giving advice to Gu Mochuan.

On the other side, Xu Weixi received a call from Gong Wuning.

Gong Wuning: "Wei Xi, can you come to Haiyun Tower? I have something to discuss with you."

"What can't you say over the phone?"

Listening to the man's somewhat flustered voice, Xu Weixi calculated the time and guessed that the other party should be preparing to confess his feelings and formally confirm their boyfriend-girlfriend relationship.

Although the inspection lasted less than two months, the two sides got along well and were able to reach a simple consensus on some views on food, clothing, and other related matters.

After hanging up the phone, Xu Weixi picked out a black and white striped sweater, blue jeans, and a pair of black high boots. The cream-colored long coat made her look even brighter.

Looking at the glasses on the table, I thought about it and put them on.

He opened Shen Ruoxuan’s WeChat dialog box, typed a few words and then deleted them.

Close the door quietly.

The girl sitting on the bus watched the night slowly falling. On the street, an elderly couple worked together to push a cart up the hill. After reaching the designated location, they were ready to open for business.

The hustle and bustle of the city, this is the ordinary life she wants to live.

Gu Mochuan could not understand such a life.

-

Haiyun Tower,

I didn't see anyone when I entered the door, and I waited for half an hour. The waiter kept adding water, and the phone I called was busy.

Xu Weixi finally ran out of patience and was about to leave.

Gong Wuning seemed to see her and called her first, "Wei Xi, I'm in the private room on the third floor, Shuiyunjian, come up quickly."

Xu Weixi originally wanted to say that there was no need to go through so much trouble. She herself did not like to show off, and it would be enough to just have a simple meal and formally confirm it. However, she thought that the other party might have good intentions, and perhaps they needed this sense of ceremony, so the words turned into "OK" when they came to her lips.

Jin Yu looked at the girl's pretty back and called her sister-in-law, but then she remembered that Gu Mochuan had not yet introduced her formally, so she stopped talking.

Because it was the peak dinner time, Xu Weixi didn't hear the voice behind him at all, but was looking for the target room according to the waiter's instructions.

After Jin Yu asked the waiter next to her which private room Xu Weixi had booked, she asked for a fruit plate to be sent up shortly, and then was called away by an acquaintance.

At the entrance of Shuiyunjian,

Xu Weixi took a few deep breaths and told herself that if there were ribbons or something like that when she went in later, she shouldn't get angry; if it was a candlelight dinner, she must show that she was touched, so that there would be a perfect ending.

She imagined all kinds of scenarios, but she didn't expect that there were two tables of people having dinner after three rounds of drinks.

Thinking she had walked into the wrong private room, she quickly apologized and prepared to leave.

But someone called out to him, "Wei Xi, why did you come just now? We have been waiting for you for a long time."
