Time Travel Article: Tool Man Rejects Plot

Bai Fenglai faced her grandfather's sharp questions and felt guilty for trying hard to make excuses for her husband in her heart.

She made a promise with shame, "Grandpa, don't worry. If the Chen family is really involved in today's matter, I will definitely listen to you this time. I will do whatever you say and will never compromise again."

Xu Fanrong comforted him, "Well, you are worthy of being my Xu family. Fenglai, remember, indecision will only make you fall deeper, long pain is worse than short pain;

You have to understand that only with the Xu and Bai families around can we have the life we ​​have now. If something happens to us, ask yourself, will the good husband in your eyes still obey you in everything?"

Bai Fenglai remained silent. The answer in his heart was already clear, and he did not regret the choice he had made.

She came up to Gu Mingyue and bowed solemnly.

Then he sincerely thanked her, "Mingyue, I owe you this 'thank you'. When I was in the car, my mind was in a mess and I seemed to have lost my ability to speak. I lost my composure a little bit. Here, I want to say sorry to you again."

Gu Mingyue quickly helped her up and joked, "Sister Bai, please don't bow to me like this, otherwise I will always feel like I died young."

Xu Fanrong admired this little girl very much. He laughed out loud after hearing her words. "My dear, what you say is really interesting. Old lady, please ask your aunt to cook a few more dishes. I want to treat our little benefactor of the Xu family with great hospitality."

Since Gu Mingyue was sitting here, she was ready to have dinner.

Without pretending to refuse, he just waved his hand and said, "I'm not worthy of being a benefactor. Don't say that, old man."

At this time, a girl walked in from outside the yard. She had a hairpin on her head, wore the most popular dress, and wore small leather shoes. She looked beautiful.

She entered the room and saw Gu Mingyue, her eyes widened in surprise. "Why are you here?"

"Wenwen, do you know Mingyue?" Xu Kejian asked with a frown.

"Of course I know her. She was my college roommate."

Hearing Xu Xiwen's words, Xu Kejian's brows relaxed slightly.

I just saw that Xiwen knew Mingyue, and I habitually suspected whether her actions today were intentional or she was in collusion with someone.

But college? Thinking of this, he asked, "I haven't heard you mention it before."

Xu Xiwen said somewhat unnaturally, "I don't live on campus very often, so I'm not very familiar with him."

It's not that I'm not familiar with him, I'm quite unfamiliar with him.

Gu Mingyue only knows how to study every day and doesn't interact much with them.

The number of times they spoke to each other could probably be counted on one hand.

She herself doesn't like silent people, and there are a lot of people getting close to her.

So Xu Xiwen usually keeps her distance from the nerd Gu Mingyue.

However, she still didn't understand why this person was here?

If you don't understand, ask. She looked around and said, "Can anyone tell me what's going on?"

Her cousins ​​pulled her away and told her about the major events that had happened at home.

After listening, she sat back next to Gu Mingyue curiously, looking at her.

Xu Kejian scolded her, "Xu Xiwen, what's wrong with you? It's rude."

Xu Xiwen was still afraid of her father, and replied obediently, "I'm just curious."

At this point, she turned around and said, "Gu Mingyue, you are amazing. Do you really know martial arts? Can you teach me?"

Gu Mingyue felt that the girl looked familiar when she first saw her. After hearing her words, she searched her memory and finally remembered her identity.

A famous white, rich and beautiful girl in the school.

There is an endless stream of people surrounding her every day, trying to get close to her.

But with her, no, this guy is just an acquaintance with the entire dormitory.

People like Xu Xiwen usually have their own circle.

Even though some people in the dormitory were attracted to her, she still couldn't fit in.

The original owner's life seemed monotonous, with three places to go every day: library, classroom, and dormitory, but the original owner enjoyed it.

Plus, she was always thinking about home at that time and hardly spoke a word to her roommates.

Not to mention that this person was always elusive, so naturally the two of them had even less interactions.

"I don't know martial arts. I only know life-saving techniques, which are not as powerful as you think." Gu Mingyue said politely.

Xu Xiwen thought she was being modest. "How is that possible? Sister Fenglai said you should just tie him up and beat him up."

"I took advantage of the other party's underestimation of me and took the initiative. Otherwise, I might not be sitting here talking to you intact now."

Xu Xiwen didn't have much contact with Gu Mingyue.

In my impression, this person has always been aloof and cold, but looking at her attitude now, it seems that she hasn't changed much.

But I always feel like there's something more...

Well, Xu Xiwen thought hard and finally figured it out. It was aura, that kind of calm and unhurried aura.

She and her friends had met Gu Mingyue on campus before.

At that time, Gu Mingyue would either nod silently, say hello, and leave in a hurry.

Or avoid it deliberately.

This caused her friends to laugh at her and wonder if she usually scared people in the dormitory, which was why people avoided her.

She was going to die unjustly.

Now, Xu Xiwen looked directly into the other person's eyes, with only calmness and composure in them, no longer the petty-mindedness of the past.

What happened to this person? ?

She couldn't help but ask, "School hasn't started yet, what are you doing here so early?"

What she actually wanted to ask was where they were staying so early, and with two children.

Although the boy was very tall, one could tell at a glance that he was about the same age as her.

Moreover, she had heard that Gu Mingyue's hometown was in a remote countryside, where living conditions were difficult.

But I felt that asking directly was too rude, so I changed the way I put it.

Gu Mingyue thought that she would know it sooner or later anyway, so she didn't hide it and said directly, "Come and apply for withdrawal."

“Drop out of school?!!!” Xu Xiwen exclaimed.

As soon as these words were spoken, everyone in the room looked over at the same time.

Gu Mingyue was not affected and nodded calmly.

"Why?" Xu Xiwen couldn't help but ask.

Gu Mingyue simply replied, "Something happened at home."

Xu Xiwen saw that the other party didn't want to say more, so she opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but she didn't have any position to speak.

After all, they are just roommates, and not very close roommates at that. Asking too many questions would probably annoy them.

But, I felt it was a pity, so I stammered carefully, "Well, let me make it clear first. I don't mean anything else, don't worry about it;

I just want to tell you that my dad is awesome. If you have something you can’t handle, he can help you solve it. You…it’s not easy for you to get into the exam, is it?”

In the original owner's memory, people's comments about Xu Xiwen were either that she had a prominent family background and was difficult to get along with, or that she was aloof and arrogant and looked down on others.

The few people who said good things about her were all her former friends.

However, judging from this person's attitude, the rumors are indeed not credible.

Come to think of it, even if Gu Mingyue is ignorant...

But looking at the surroundings and talking to them, one can guess that the Xu family is not an ordinary family.

Besides, there have long been rumors in the school that the Xu family is involved in politics and most of the family members are high-ranking officials.

Not to mention anything else, if a family like the Xu family wants to continue its glory, it will definitely pay attention to the cultivation of the next generation.

Unless one is really short-sighted, no one would raise a child to be useless.

I guess most of those who spread the rumors are out of envy, jealousy and hatred.

Although his opinion of Xu Xiwen had changed, he was not flattered.

She knew herself well enough and could accept Bai Fenglai's attempt to get close to her. To put it bluntly, it was because the other party was trying to fool her.

As for Xu Xiwen's family, I don't want to have too much contact with them.

In this kind of family, any child standing out is a smart one.

The point is, she is just an ordinary citizen, with only a little cleverness. She can hide the truth in Qingshan Town, but it will be difficult for her here.

So when he heard Xu Xiwen's words, he said in a distant tone that it was not necessary and said no more.

When Xu Kejian heard his daughter's praise for him, he felt helpless but also secretly happy.

He really holds a high position in his daughter's heart.

But he didn't interrupt. After all, the little girl looked unwilling to talk more, so he decided not to embarrass himself.

I just thought to myself that I would have to investigate it later.

We need to make sure that there is no suspicion about Gu Mingyue's identity, and take a look at...

If something really happens, considering that he helped Feng Lai and the Xu family today, he will not stand idly by and just repay the favor as soon as possible.

Auntie came out and announced that the meal was ready and asked if we could eat.

Xu Fanrong waved his hand and directed everyone to go to the dining room.

In the meantime, Gu Mingyue noticed that Gu Guangsheng beside him secretly let out a long sigh.

She whispered "What's wrong?"

Although Gu Guangsheng felt embarrassed, he still told his aunt the truth, "I always feel nervous unconsciously when I stay here."

Gu Mingyue understood what he meant and consoled him, "It's okay, we'll leave after we finish eating. You're responsible for eating and drinking well, and don't waste anything."

Gu Guangsheng was curious, "Aunt isn't nervous?"

"Don't be nervous. I, your aunt, have no desires or requests."

Hearing Gu Mingyue's words, Gu Guangsheng was dissatisfied and said, "I have no desires or requests either."

Gu Mingyue laughed and teased, "Are you not envious of this exquisite environment? Don't you yearn for such a life? Or, do you not want to leave a good impression on these people?"

Gu Guangsheng hesitated, "Auntie, don't you have any?"

Gu Mingyue shook her head. "Really not. I don't ask anything of them, nor do I envy their lives. Because I firmly believe that sooner or later, I will be able to live a life like this, so I don't care."

Of course, Gu Mingyue would not say that she dared to say this because she was accustomed to all kinds of fine and luxurious decorations in later generations and had experienced a more convenient and advanced life.

In front of her nephew, she now can't help but feel like an idol and must not lose face.

Of course you have to pretend occasionally.

Otherwise, how could I receive the admiring look from my nephew? Gosh, it feels a little bit nice.

While she was having fun, she didn't notice that Xu Fanrong, who was beside her, and the old woman fell behind them because of their slow pace, and heard their conversation.

The old couple looked at each other with full admiration.

If she knew, Gu Mingyue would only say, "See, she's pretending again."
