Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

"Look, I said it was just a conflict. Mu Xue kicked Xiao Rui just now, so it's time for her to vent her anger."

Zhao Lizhen waved to the departing car, and Xue Rui greeted her from the car window.

Her daughter would only release her true nature in front of Xue Rui, which she thought was a good thing. Her daughter had too many dogmas, and if she didn't even have someone to "reveal her true nature", her life would be too depressing. Xue Rui was the best candidate, with his naughty and mean personality.

“The girl driving the car looks familiar.” Gu Qingshan fell into thought. He vaguely remembered where he had seen her. It seemed like he had dinner with Xue Rui two years ago.

"She's so tall, half a head taller than our Xue'er." Zhao Lizhen said as she noticed Gu Muxue had been standing downstairs playing with her phone. She shouted to Gu Muxue, "Come back soon Xue'er, there are a lot of mosquitoes in autumn."

"Yeah." Gu Muxue put away her phone and walked home blankly. After all, she couldn't bear to delete Xue Rui.

Even... just take a look at the chat history?

She likes Xue Rui who used to play with her all day, even though he would bully her occasionally...

Is Xue Rui still the person she remembers?

It seems so, but she is no longer the only one in Xue Rui's heart;

If giving up her dignity can only get half the love, she would rather not have it.

“Xue’er, is that girl your classmate? I saw Xiao Rui take her out for dinner before, and she seemed to be a technician.” Gu Qingshan asked.

"Well, her name is Lin Ruoxi, and I have a good relationship with her." Gu Muxue's expression remained unchanged, but the pain in her heart made her subconsciously clench her hands.

But how should she tell her parents about her breakup with Xue Rui?

"Mom, please help me find a psychologist in Chang'an. I haven't been feeling well lately and I want to talk to someone." Gu Muxue said.

The relationship between her and Xue Rui needed time to settle. During the Chinese New Year, she told her family that their personalities were incompatible and they decided to separate after negotiation. This way, the relationship between the two families would not be affected...

But when she thought of this, her nose suddenly felt sore. She was afraid that her parents would find out something was wrong, so she hurried to hide in her room.

"If you have any troubles, just talk to dad. Why look for outsiders?"

Gu Qingshan was about to go forward and hug Gu Muxue’s shoulders, but Gu Muxue dodged and he missed her.

"Not going abroad anymore?" Zhao Lizhen asked.

"I'm not going." Gu Muxue said and closed the door.

Gu Qingshan sighed and said, "Rebellious period? Is it too late?"

"Xue'er has a strong ability to adjust herself. Didn't she just ask a psychologist? There are some things that you can't say to people you are close to, but you don't feel any pressure to say them to strangers. We should give her more space."

Zhao Lizhen shook her head and said that she believed in her daughter.

"Xue'er, if you can't bear it anymore, you must tell mom and dad." Zhao Lizhen shouted at the door.

"Don't worry, mom. I know."

……

Inside the room, Gu Muxue tightly hugged the teddy bear that Xue Rui gave her, biting the teddy bear's ears with her shiny teeth, her face full of tear marks.

She really wanted to bite Xue Rui, but she couldn't. Now she imagined the little bear as Xue Rui to vent her anger...

After venting her emotions, she opened her phone and started searching: post-traumatic stress disorder.

Just now she asked her mother to find a psychologist, actually she was looking for one for Xue Rui.

When she heard Xue Rui's explanation, the first thing that came to her mind was: Is Xue Rui using mental illness as a shield?
Xue Rui is a bastard who tells lies all the time. She doesn't know whether Xue Rui is lying or not.

But this time, it was about Xue Rui's physical and mental health, and she didn't want to gamble.

Even if she was deceived again, so what? She hoped that Xue Rui was deceiving her this time.

She hated Xue Rui, but in her heart she still wanted Xue Rui to live a better life.

……

At the same time, Xue Rui was sitting in the passenger seat of the car. The cool night breeze after the rain blew across his cheeks, making his mind clearer.

"Xixi, drive slower. I want to feel the breeze." Xue Rui said while looking at the scenery outside the car window. He felt empty inside.

In fact, he had anticipated this day would come a long time ago because he knew Gu Muxue too well.

He took advantage of the nightmare to tell Gu Muxue about his experiences in his previous life.

The good news is that Gu Muxue promised not to go abroad and returned to Jiaotong University to attend classes after the holiday, avoiding the recurrence of the incident in the previous life where she went abroad and had no news.

But the bad news is that Gu Muxue didn't let him show up. Although she didn't threaten him, Xue Rui could feel Gu Muxue's desperation. That beautiful figure stood blankly in the rearview mirror for a long time, not considering that he could see in the rearview mirror...

He found that the girl had become dull.

He would rather let Gu Muxue tell everyone the truth, saying that he was a scumbag and a bastard, and then be pressured and beaten up by parents from all sides, than have Gu Muxue keep everything in her heart.

In his heart, the girl was still just a little girl, she hadn't even reached adulthood yet, she shouldn't have to endure all this alone, he wanted to make it up to her...

"Well, let's sit here for a while." Lin Ruoxi said as she parked the car on a bridge. She rolled down all the windows and accompanied Xue Rui to enjoy the breeze.

The melodious sounds of insects and frogs came from both sides of the river, and her heart gradually calmed down.

"Rui, you...you should not look for Gu Muxue anymore, okay..."

Lin Ruoxi originally wanted to ask “Is it okay?”, but she felt that she should be more firm.

So, she said word by word in a soft voice: "No, it's not allowed."

She said this not because Gu Muxue had just threatened her, but because she could feel the struggle and pressure in Gu Muxue's heart.

If Xue Rui goes to find Gu Muxue, Gu Muxue will feel very uncomfortable.

She finally understood Xue Rui's feeling of owing Gu Muxue. She also owed Gu Muxue...

If they had to fight, she would be the one who couldn't afford to lose. Now she could sit side by side with Xue Rui, which was the life that Gu Muxue had given her.

"You, did you hear that clearly?" Lin Ruoxi deliberately made an angry expression, trying to deepen Xue Rui's impression.

Because classmate Gu Muxue is like that, Xue Rui listens to Gu Muxue very much.

Xue Rui was stunned for a long time. He had never seen Lin Ruoxi so tough. He could clearly feel that she was lacking energy when she spoke.

"Xixi?" Xue Rui said two words lightly, and then stared into Lin Ruoxi's eyes without saying a word.

Soon, Lin Ruoxi lowered her head and gently rested it on Xue Rui's shoulder: "Rui... I was wrong."

"What's wrong?" Xue Rui rubbed Lin Ruoxi's head with a smile.

"I'm wrong if you're angry." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice.

Classmate Gu Muxue asked her to change the way she and Xue Rui get along, but...

She can't change in her life, and she doesn't want to change.

Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi's cell phone rang and Gu Muxue sent her a message.

Gu Muxue: [Lin Ruoxi, keep an eye on Xue Rui and don't let him come to see me.]

Lin Ruoxi secretly glanced at Xue Rui and replied to Gu Muxue: [Okay.]

Gu Muxue: [Xue Rui needs a psychiatrist. I will send you the doctor's contact information when the time comes. You supervise him to see a psychiatrist.]

Gu Muxue felt a little regretful when she sent the message. With Xue Rui's keen sense, he must have known that it was her who did it.

But what can she do? Some people know they are sick, but they dare not see a doctor, and a minor illness eventually turns into a major one.

The boy’s ability to take care of himself is so poor that she is really worried.

Lin Ruoxi: [Thank you.]

Lin Ruoxi didn't know why Xue Rui wanted to see a psychiatrist. Did he have a mental illness? Didn't she see it?

But how could Gu Muxue do something bad to Xue Rui? She trusted Gu Muxue very much.

Moreover, Gu Muxue was willing to contact her, which made her feel much more at ease.

Xue Rui felt that something was unusual. Lin Ruoxi was around him every day. Did he have any friends to chat with?
He guessed that it was Gu Muxue who sent a message, and subconsciously wanted to move closer to take a look, but the little girl cautiously held the phone and moved away.

Gu Muxue didn't reply to his message, but contacted Lin Ruoxi instead?
This is also good news. Gu Muxue only hated him from the beginning to the end.

Lin Ruoxi's face was full of nervousness. She hurriedly deleted Gu Muxue's chat history and promised Gu Muxue not to tell Xue Rui.

"Don't look for her anymore, okay?" Lin Ruoxi begged in a low voice.

"Xixi, I...I owe her." Xue Rui looked embarrassed. It was difficult for him to agree to Lin Ruoxi's request.

Lin Ruoxi raised her head, looked into Xue Rui's eyes and said, "I owe you too. I'll pay you back too."

She didn't know whether Gu Muxue treated her as a friend, but she knew very well that Gu Muxue needed someone to accompany her and talk to, but that person could not be Xue Rui.

Although she was one of the "culprits" who caused Gu Muxue's sadness, she was also an insider. Gu Muxue did not tell anyone about Xue Rui, and even her parents were kept in the dark.

But people always need an outlet to vent their emotions, otherwise they will get sick. She might as well be Gu Muxue's punching bag.

In Lin Ruoxi's heart, Gu Muxue was already her good friend. She didn't want to see her friend get hurt. Since Gu Muxue was willing to contact her, it meant that she had a chance to make amends...

She knew that Gu Muxue also loved Xue Rui, but her way of loving him was different from hers.

She was used to giving everything to Xue Rui and letting Xue Rui take everything;
Gu Muxue, on the other hand, is cold on the outside but warm on the inside, says one thing but means another, and always silently gives behind the scenes.

Although their methods are different, she can feel who is truly kind to Xue Rui, and she doesn't dislike them.

Xue Rui's expression was complicated after hearing Lin Ruoxi's words. The little girl wanted to repay his debt of love for him?
Xue Rui smiled bitterly: "Silly girl, what else do you want?"

"I can give her everything I have."

Lin Ruoxi said in her heart.

But Xue Rui...she could only give Gu Muxue half.

"Forget it, let's drive away."

Xue Rui saw that the little girl didn't say anything, so he didn't take it to heart. He had to solve his own problems, so he turned his eyes to Lin Ruoxi's phone.

Lin Ruoxi looked at Xue Rui warily and put the phone into the storage compartment on her left hand side to prevent Xue Rui from getting it.

"You." Xue Rui's eyebrows twitched when he saw Lin Ruoxi's behavior.

Xue Rui looked at Lin Ruoxi in disbelief. Gu Muxue had just changed her phone wallpaper and password in front of him, but he knew what the password was. The little girl was mad at him...

But from what Lin Ruoxi said, it seemed like she was hiding a secret from him?
It even feels like I'm planning to secretly change my phone password.

"Rui, I...I can't show you my phone anymore." Lin Ruoxi said with a pout.

After Lin Ruoxi said this, she suddenly felt panicked, as if she was deliberately creating a sense of distance, but she was afraid that Xue Rui would use her phone to contact Gu Muxue, and then Gu Muxue would not contact her.

She hurriedly handed over the phone and added a condition: "Don't contact classmate Gu Muxue, you can see the rest..."

Xue Rui smiled and pushed the phone back: "No."

He is not stupid. Now that Gu Muxue needs to lick her wounds, all he can do is provide some convenience in Gu Muxue's life, but never appear in front of the girl and reduce his presence for a while.

As for whether Gu Muxue will forgive him, that depends on fate.

Xue Rui couldn't help but sigh that possessiveness was really tormenting. He knew that the best ending was for both of them to be well, but he just couldn't let go.

After two lifetimes, he doesn't want to have any regrets.

There were many other means he could use, but he had thrown them all out of his mind. Gu Muxue was deceived and hurt, so he could only apologize with sincerity in exchange for sincerity.

"Rui, are you hungry so late? Where are you going?" Lin Ruoxi asked. She didn't know where to go now.

Xue Rui was a little confused. This year's Mid-Autumn Festival came too early. It happened to be the weekend after the military training. It had only been a week since he "went to college", which was shorter than the time he lived on campus in his senior year of high school. His family had even forgotten about it...

Only his mother called to ask him if Lin Ruoxi would come back...

"Where do you want to go?" Xue Rui said with a smile, letting Lin Ruoxi make the decision. Lin Ruoxi has become more and more independent-minded recently, although she is still a little bit of a punching bag by nature.

"Send you home?" Lin Ruoxi said and waited for Xue Rui's reply.

Xue Rui has already arrived in Hedong, isn’t he going home?

Grandma is in a nursing home and it’s not convenient for her to go there at night.

"Okay." Xue Rui said, pinching his eyebrows.

Is that why I want to go home? Is that why you want to go home?

Who bought those gifts in the trunk?
Lin Ruoxi was like a curious baby, asking him why he always gave her a lot of gifts during every holiday. He replied that when giving holiday gifts, one should choose auspicious numbers, 6 or 8 being preferred.

In fact, there is no need for girls to learn these local customs, as they are given by the men to the women.

As a result, Lin Ruoxi really remembered and brought 8 gifts for his parents.

As for him, he plans to buy some brand-name health products for the old lady, such as Melatonin oral liquid, massagers and other IQ-tax products. He will buy whatever is advertised on TV. Whether it is useful or not is secondary. The most important thing is that other old men and women know it. Old people also need to compare with others.

What was the result? Lin Ruoxi stopped them all and said that they were all lies.

So, Lin Ruoxi bought six gift boxes of snacks for the old lady, planning to take them back and eat them with him after the holiday. She said that the old lady was in poor health and couldn't eat anything carelessly. She had already bought everything she needed, so giving her gifts would be a waste...

"The old lady will be so furious when she sees the things you bought tomorrow." Xue Rui couldn't help but say.

Your elbow is bent outward, who can stand this?

"Well, no, grandma doesn't like to waste things. She taught me the habit of saving." Lin Ruoxi said confidently. She must be the one who knows her grandma best.

Xue Rui shook his head and sighed silently in his heart. Lin Ruoxi had never understood the old lady...

The old lady just doesn't like to waste her things. Now someone has come to her house and kidnapped her granddaughter, and she wishes the other party would bleed more.

You are so kind, you saved it for me first...

Not long after, the two arrived at Xue Rui's door. Xue Yao had just returned from walking the dog.

"Da Huang is really awesome. Go help me scold that Teddy tomorrow..."

However, the rope in her hand suddenly slipped out, and Da Huang rushed out, whimpering and wagging his tail beside Lin Ruoxi, and his claws were about to touch Lin Ruoxi's white shirt.

Lin Ruoxi frowned: "Stand still!"

Dahuang licked his lips, lay on the ground obediently, and swept the ground with his tail like a broom.

"Hello, Yaoyao." Lin Ruoxi nodded and smiled at Xue Yao.

Xue Yao: “…”

“Brother, Sister Ruoxi changed the key position of Dahuang? No wonder I couldn’t teach her no matter how hard I tried.” Xue Yao had an expression of sudden enlightenment.

Xue Rui chuckled: "This is what I trained. I don't want my dog ​​to listen to others."

Lin Ruoxi smiled with satisfaction. Xue Rui liked to play, so she would play with him.

When she was moving the gifts down from the trunk, she suddenly remembered that Xue Rui had sent a lot of gifts to Gu Muxue's family. Did Gu Muxue give any gifts in return?

She asked in a low voice: "Rui, has Gu Muxue ever given holiday gifts to uncle and aunt?"

During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the younger generation should give gifts to the elders. She owed Xue Rui's family too much, and she was able to work and earn money, so she must give gifts during the festival;

But, does classmate Gu Muxue need to send it?

Xue Rui shook his head. Gu Qingshan was very proud, how could he let his daughter give a gift to his father?

Moreover, the girl is obviously trying to downplay their relationship now. Sending gifts to his family during the Mid-Autumn Festival to maintain their relationship? Don't be ridiculous.

However, Xue Rui discovered that Lin Ruoxi deliberately divided the things into two piles, 6 on each side, for a total of 12 boxes, and Lin Ruoxi took out 4 items from the old lady's things.

"What are you doing?" Xue Rui had a bad feeling that Lin Ruoxi was going to cause trouble.

"I sent it for her this year. Isn't classmate Gu Muxue very close to your family?" Lin Ruoxi said.

“Quickly collect…”

Before Xue Rui could finish, he saw Ren Qunfang walking out with a smile on her face: "Xixi, what gifts are you bringing home?"

"Hello, Auntie. This one is from me, and that one is from classmate Gu Muxue." Lin Ruoxi said, pointing at the two piles of gifts.

Ren Qunfang was stunned for a moment. Gu Muxue would secretly give her a small gift during the holidays. Did she let Lin Ruoxi give it this year?

Are they on such a good terms?
Is her son so capable?
Ren Qunfang frowned and bit her nails, unable to figure out the relationship between them.

Xue Rui smiled awkwardly: "Mom, I'm back from the Mid-Autumn Festival holiday."

Ren Qunfang glanced behind Xue Rui and said coldly, "You came here empty-handed?"

Xue Rui's brows twitched. Originally, the eight gifts were enough and everyone would have assumed that he had a share. But now that Lin Ruoxi changed her mind at the last minute, her mother suddenly started to find fault.

"What gifts did you just say you would bring home?" Xue Rui said with a shy face.

"That being said, even the best relationships need to be maintained and managed," Ren Qunfang said dimly.

Xue Rui said seriously: "Mom, this is superficial. Whose mother and son rely on mooncakes to maintain their relationship?"

Xue Yao led Da Huang and walked around the new car that Xue Rui bought, and found two red boxes in the trunk.

Xue Yao blinked, took out the two boxes, and said with a smile: "Brother, these two are yours, right?"

"On egg yolk pie and eight-treasure porridge?" (End of this chapter)
