Chapter 34 Conflict

On the morning of the sixth day of junior high school, the campus was quiet.The cold wind blows through the evergreen pine and cypress leaves, waving the branches and making a rustling sound, making it even more cold and bleak.

Gu Yazhen was waiting for her downstairs in Cheng Zhou's dormitory. After putting away their luggage, they walked hand in hand on the deserted campus path.

"Going to the office?" Cheng Zhou asked.

"No, let's take a stroll." Gu Yazhen's face was a little tired, the corners of her eyes drooped slightly, Cheng Zhou felt pitiful looking at it.

"Is there something uncomfortable? Your complexion is not very good." Cheng Zhou asked worriedly.

Gu Yazhen lowered her head and smiled, and the corners of her eyes were even more curved: "It's okay, I studied too hard a few days ago, and I'm a little tired. Just go shopping with me."

Cheng Zhou was skeptical, but he didn't want to ask too many questions. "If you really feel uncomfortable somewhere, you must tell me. Where shall we go shopping now?"

"I promised you that I will take you to see the little squirrel in winter." She replied lightly.

She still remembered what Cheng Zhou said a long time ago.

The two walked to the deep and quiet path, Gu Yazhen squatted down, a warm smile finally appeared on her slightly stiff face: "I remember when we first came here, you grabbed my sleeve."

For such a long time ago, Cheng Zhou had no memory of the specific details.She bent down and squatted beside Gu Yazhen, kissed her cheek: "Did you have a crush on me at that time?"

Gu Yazhen held back a smile in her eyes and bowed her head in silence.

Cheng Zhou saw it, and felt unspeakable uneasiness and heaviness in his heart.The joy in Gu Yazhen's eyes was real, and Cheng Zhou could feel it.She was looking forward to her return and happily shared the memories of the past with herself. This bright smile is still familiar and lovely.

It's just that she has something hidden in her heart, she is exhausted, but she stubbornly refuses to say it.Her face was covered with a deep pool under dark clouds, calm to despair.Even Cheng Zhou's arrival could barely stir up a few insignificant ripples in this pool of stagnant water.

"Let's stop watching the little squirrel, okay? You look tired and need to rest." Cheng Zhou didn't know how to persuade her.What Gu Yazhen didn't want to say, she would never force her to answer.

Gu Yazhen touched Cheng Zhou's head: "Did you forget the treasure map? We haven't found it yet."

Cheng Zhou had no choice but to let her, and the two searched a lot in the woods according to the instructions, and finally found a packed cardboard box in a tree hole facing the trail.

"Look what is it?" Gu Yazhen smiled, full of anticipation, and blinked to signal Cheng Zhou to open it.

Cheng Zhou unwrapped the wrapping paper, opened the box, and took out a fluffy squirrel puppet.The little squirrel is exquisite in workmanship, with a very cute round body, holding an oak fruit tightly in his hand.

"It looks like you, it looks like a snack." Gu Yazhen smiled and stretched out her hands to pinch the little squirrel's chubby belly, most of the haze on her face dissipated.

Cheng Zhou curled his lips, and gave her a wronged look: "I'm not so fat." She held the little squirrel in her arms, and rubbed its face like holding her own baby.

Gu Yazhen carefully observed Cheng Zhou's expression of fondness, and the smile on his face was even bigger. "The person who hides the treasure is so lucky that he guessed correctly what you like."

"Yes..." Cheng Zhou looked down at the opened box, and found another piece of yellowed letter paper inside. "Look, there is a new treasure map."

Gu Yazhen picked up the letter paper curiously, and looked at several angles upside down: "Where is this?"

Cheng Zhou took the treasure map and folded it up and put it in his pocket: "It's okay, this can be studied slowly. I'll accompany you back to the dormitory to rest first, okay?"

Gu Yazhen's face returned to calm, silent and depressed.She stood there blankly for a long time before she slowly came back to her senses.

"Okay." She murmured, and then coquettishly, looked at Cheng Zhou expectantly and cutely, "But, I want you to sleep with me."

"Okay, I'll sleep with you." Cheng Zhou breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his hand to pinch Gu Yazhen's chin.

Back in the dormitory, the two of them huddled together on the small bed. Cheng Zhou held Gu Yazhen's hand and coaxed her softly: "Go to sleep, and play with you after you wake up. You can play with anything."

"I didn't think about what to play." Gu Yazhen obediently closed her eyes and rubbed Cheng Zhou's chest.

"Think about it while you sleep." The big deal is playing gold miners.

Gu Yazhen nodded, as well-behaved as a little sheep.She lay motionless in Cheng Zhou's arms, breathing evenly on Cheng Zhou's arms.Cheng Zhou looked down at her gradually softening face, and counted the number of her long eyelashes in his heart.Her eyelids trembled slightly from time to time, and Cheng Zhou lost count several times.

Ten minutes later, Gu Yazhen moved her body, and her opened eyes were clear and energetic. "I woke up, what are you playing now?"

Cheng Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment: "Have you ever fallen asleep?" With such vigor, he knew that he was pretending to be asleep just now.

Gu Yazhen buried her head in Cheng Zhou's arms, her ears were red: "I can't sleep."

"Why?" She obviously looked tired.

Gu Yazhen's voice was muffled, as if a little choked up: "My heart is blocked."

Feeling that her tone was weird, she quickly added: "It's okay... I often suffer from insomnia, just take some melatonin."

Cheng Zhou pretended not to notice anything unusual, and patted her back: "Where is the medicine? I'll get it for you."

"Finished."

"Then I'll buy it for you."

"No, there's still half a bottle in the drawer in the office, I'll just get it myself at night."

Alas, it's all like this and it's still brave.

"I'll get it for you now, wait for me for a while, okay?"

Gu Yazhen didn't say a word, and the hand holding Cheng Zhou's arm was tightened, obviously refusing, but very confident.

"I'll be back soon, okay?" Cheng Zhou touched her long brown hair again.Gu Yazhen's hair color is brown and yellow, so beautiful that people are enviable, but Cheng Zhou is always worried that she is malnourished, so that she can't grow black hair.

"Okay." Gu Yazhen turned over and covered her head in the quilt, and Cheng Zhou suddenly felt a burst of cold and wet arms.

Cheng Zhou's desire to leave for a while became stronger, and Gu Yazhen obviously wanted to be alone for a while.She has a strong self-esteem and is not used to exposing her weak emotions in front of others.

"Wait for me, I'll be right back." Cheng Zhou took the key, wrapped up his coat and hurried out the door.

The cold wind outside the house is even colder, and it hurts and hurts when it blows on the face.Juan walked towards the office with a cool winter feeling, and saw the door of the office was ajar from a distance, and there were still clear conversations coming from inside.

"Sister! When are you going to finish your work? I want to go out for a walk." An impatient and unfamiliar voice sounded first, with a tone that had just faded from the greenness and innocence.

"I'll take you out after I fill out the form. Be good, play with your phone first." Cheng Zhou heard that the voice belonged to Zhou Yuning.

"Then I'll play with the computer for a while... This computer looks quite new."

"Don't move, that's Yazhen's computer, I'll let you play with mine."

"What, I don't look through that guy's folder, why are you nervous." There was a trace of grievance in the unfamiliar voice, but more dissatisfaction.

Zhou Yuning's voice suddenly raised, and there was cautious reproach in his gentle tone: "She is your second sister, you can't call her that."

"She's not my sister. It's not that you didn't see how fierce she was when she looked at me just now. If you hadn't stopped her, she would have done it! I'm going back and telling Dad!"

"Uncle Gu doesn't care about you. If you talk about her like that, I could beat you to death."

"Who are you speaking for! I am your own sister!"

The door was knocked open without warning, hitting the wall with a loud bang, and Cheng Zhou walked in expressionlessly.

Zhou Yuning was taken aback for a moment, and his face suddenly became a little embarrassed.After a few seconds of silence, she smiled, put down the form in her hand, stood up and said, "Xiaozhou, have you come to school so early?"

Cheng Zhou didn't make a sound, and looked away from Zhou Yuning, looking up and down at the girl sitting in Gu Yazhen's seat.The girl looked like she had just grown up, and she looked three points similar to Gu Yazhen.She sat carelessly on a chair, staring up at Cheng Zhou curiously.

Except for the part that looks like Gu Yazhen, this face is really annoying no matter how you look at it.

"Oh, let me introduce. This is my younger sister. She was bored at home during the Chinese New Year, so she came to play with me at school." Seeing Cheng Zhou looking at the girl, Zhou Yuning quickly explained.

Cheng Zhou nodded indifferently, walked up to the girl and signaled her to get up.The girl was overwhelmed by Cheng Zhou's soaring resentment, she didn't have time to resist, she obediently stood up and gave up her seat.

"This is Senior Sister Yazhen's computer, you are not allowed to touch it." Cheng Zhou found the medicine from the drawer, put it in his backpack and put it away, not forgetting to give the girl a blank look.

"Then why are you looking through her drawers?" The girl reacted belatedly, and replied unconvinced.Although she and Gu Yazhen are half-sisters, she is obviously much shorter than Gu Yazhen, Cheng Zhou lowered his head slightly to look at her without any effort.

Cheng Zhou shook the key in his hand: "I have the key for the drawer, of course."

Zhou Yuning watched impatiently from the side, and rushed forward to hold the girl: "Xiaozhou, I'm sorry, my sister didn't know that you were here to help Yazhen get things. Minzhen, come here for me..."

"Senior Sister Yuning, the office is a common place for everyone to study. When your sister is here, how do others work?" Cheng Zhou became more and more angry. Gu Yazhen must have come to the office first in the morning. When she saw someone she shouldn't look at, she would be annoyed when she returned. To the heart blocked.

"How did you talk?" The girl was a little angry, what are you talking about.

Cheng Zhou treated her like air and didn't bother to answer her.Zhou Yuning stared into Cheng Zhou's eyes, with guilt and loss on his face: "Xiao Zhou, I'm sorry. Can I...can I talk to you?"

"Don't talk about it." She has to go back quickly to take care of Gu Yazhen, what's there to talk about.What good things Zhou Yuning could say was to persuade Gu Yazhen to forgive their family.

Putting on her schoolbag and walking away, a distraught voice came from behind her: "Hey, why are you talking to my sister! Stop!...Sister, why are you stopping me..."

"Gu Minzhen, shut up, or I'll go back and tell Mom that you're arguing with someone else again."
