Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

The night wind blew, and Gu Muxue felt a little cool on her cheeks, but what she felt most clearly was Lin Ruoxi hugging her from behind.

Lin Ruoxi hugged her arms tightly. She had never been hugged like this before, not even Xue Rui dared to do so.

But she could vaguely feel water droplets on her neck, and she knew that Lin Ruoxi was crying, but her heart was very calm.

"You have already got everything you wanted, why are you pestering me? Do we know each other well?" Gu Muxue said calmly. She didn't want Lin Ruoxi to interfere in her life, even if it was out of good intentions.

"No, I'm not familiar with him, but you need someone to accompany you." Lin Ruoxi said weakly.

She had read some psychology books and knew that depressed patients needed companionship.

Gu Muxue didn't want to say anything, not even telling her parents. The situation would only get worse, and Lin Ruoxi didn't want to see anyone around her get hurt.

Lin Ruoxi took off her shirt and jacket, gently draped it over Gu Muxue's shoulders, and took the bag full of medicine from Gu Muxue: "I'll take you home, get in my car."

"Did Xiao Rui ask you to send me off?" Gu Muxue asked. Based on her understanding of Lin Ruoxi, Lin Ruoxi should be sticking to Xue Rui all the time. Did he stay specially to send her off?

Xue Rui cares about her very much, but the current girlfriend gives the ex-girlfriend a gift?

Only Lin Ruoxi could do this.

"Okay, I'll pick you up next time." Lin Ruoxi bent down to pick up the diagnosis certificate on the ground. When she saw the words "moderate depression", her heart felt like it was being pricked by needles.

She got everything she wanted, but Gu Muxue had to endure much more than she had imagined...

If it weren't for her, Gu Muxue and Xue Rui would have been a childhood sweetheart, and her current wonderful life would have belonged to Gu Muxue.

Gu Muxue snatched the diagnosis result from Lin Ruoxi's hand and threatened: "Don't tell him, and you are not allowed to come to me in the future. If he sees this paper, you know the consequences."

Lin Ruoxi stood there in a daze. She couldn't help but think that if Xue Rui knew about Gu Muxue's affairs, Xue Rui would agree to anything Gu Muxue asked...

If Gu Muxue wanted to drive her away from Xue Rui, would Xue Rui do it?

On the surface, he would probably do that, but as long as she sticks to Xue Rui, Xue Rui will still look for her.

But in this way, Gu Muxue was the one who got hurt in the end.

Lin Ruoxi thought that the root of the problem was herself. Her eyes were empty. “Will…will it help your condition if I leave?”

Gu Muxue looked aside and said coldly: "Lin Ruoxi, don't take yourself too seriously. My illness has nothing to do with you."

"He has two people in his heart. He and I... can't go back."

In fact, as long as Gu Muxue is willing, there are plenty of ways to keep Xue Rui by her side, but Lin Ruoxi can't bear this result. If something happens to Lin Ruoxi, there will be an indelible gap in her and Xue Rui's hearts.

Did Lin Ruoxi just mean to return Xue Rui to her?

Can you afford it?

"Can you please come in?" Lin Ruoxi opened the passenger door and stood there waiting for Gu Muxue to come in.

Gu Muxue hesitated for a moment, but finally chose to sit on it.

"I will stay with you." Lin Ruoxi said secretly in her heart.

Classmate Gu Muxue didn't mean what she said. Her words just now were just to comfort her. She knew that she was a loser and leaving Xue Rui was impossible for her.

But classmate Gu Muxue's interests conflict with hers...

Lin Ruoxi walked to the gate of Jiaotong University with familiarity and asked, "We haven't had dinner yet. Do you want to eat first?"

Gu Muxue shook her head: "I'm staying somewhere else tonight, you go back."

Her recent abnormal behavior has attracted the attention of her roommates. She doesn’t know what she will be like after taking the medicine. She will be discovered eventually...

She didn't want to worry her parents, so she decided to move out now.

But when she wanted to get off, she suddenly found that the car door could not be opened.

"What are you doing?" Gu Muxue asked in disbelief.

"I'll take you there." Lin Ruoxi locked the car door. She had to take good care of Gu Muxue and not let her run around at night.

Gu Muxue suddenly felt a deep sense of powerlessness. She was entangled by Lin Ruoxi...

Lin Ruoxi is a stubborn girl. Once she decides to do something, she will do it no matter who persuades her.

"I'll ask Uncle Yang for an address, and you can go back immediately after I deliver it." Gu Muxue said.

Half an hour later, the two arrived at an upscale residential area, and Lin Ruoxi followed Yang Xing and Gu Muxue upstairs.

"Mu Xue, have you thought it through? It's a pity that Aunt Liu heard that you were not moving out, so she stayed in Hedong after the Mid-Autumn Festival. I'll call her over in the next two days." Yang Xing said as he was about to call Hedong.

"No need." Gu Muxue said hurriedly. She was most afraid of coming into contact with acquaintances, as it would expose her true identity...

"Why? You can cook?" Yang Xing murmured.

"I will." Lin Ruoxi said hurriedly.

Yang Xing's eyes widened instantly. She looked at Lin Ruoxi and suddenly realized, "I understand. You live with Mu Xue, right?"

It is actually quite common for college students to live with friends. Those with better financial conditions will choose to move out and rent a house. After all, the environment in school dormitories is too poor and there are too many restrictions.

Since Gu Muxue already has a house, it is normal for her to live with familiar friends.

He originally thought it would be Mei Lili's, perhaps because there were new changes in the social circle.

"I..." Lin Ruoxi was stunned. She had never thought about it.

She had just completed the procedures for living off-campus, thinking about living with Xue Rui in the future...

"Let's live together." Gu Muxue gently pushed Lin Ruoxi, motioning for Lin Ruoxi to help deal with it.

"Well, I live with Gu Muxue, and I can drive her there." Lin Ruoxi said weakly.

"Huh?" Yang Xing exclaimed softly. Why did it sound like someone was trying to steal his job?

However, his competitiveness is not just as a driver, and he has no worries about losing his job.

"Okay, let me see your ID card."

"Well, here you go."

Yang Xing roughly checked Lin Ruoxi's ID card. After confirming that she was from Hedong, he nodded with satisfaction, took a photo and gave it back to Lin Ruoxi, and handed her a bunch of keys and a business card:
"No need for a contract or anything. Just get along well with each other in the future. Here is my contact information."

Lin Ruoxi glanced at Gu Muxue weakly. Did she get the key to Gu Muxue’s house?

After opening the door, Lin Ruoxi discovered that Gu Muxue's house was very big, probably around 230 square meters or more...

Why would you buy such a big house if you live alone?

Did you consider that Xue Rui would also move here...

Just as Lin Ruoxi was daydreaming, Yang Xing began to check the facilities and water and electricity in the room.

After confirming that there was no problem, he shouted to the two of them, "Call me if you need anything. I also live in this neighborhood. I'll send Xiaobu over tomorrow. Remember to take good care of him."

After Yang Xing left, Gu Muxue instantly put away her smile.

"I was just acting just now, don't misunderstand." Gu Muxue stretched out her hand towards Lin Ruoxi. She was reluctant to give the key to Lin Ruoxi.

"But, but I'm serious." Lin Ruoxi said weakly, holding the key tightly in her hand.

As a depressed patient living alone, there was no way she could agree to Gu Muxue's request.

Gu Muxue said nothing, kept her palms facing upward, and continued to put pressure on Lin Ruoxi.

Lin Ruoxi bit her lip tightly. She took out the key from her pocket and handed it over: "This is the key to my house. Can I give you one too?"

"You...you can scold me if you want, and you can hit me if you want to vent your anger. I won't leave." Lin Ruoxi said with her head down.

Gu Muxue took a deep breath and gave up the idea of ​​taking the key back: "You are as scoundrel as him."

"Well... I'm going to buy groceries and cook. I'll take a rest first." Lin Ruoxi didn't know what she could do, so she just did it as usual. "I'm not going to eat. I'm going to sleep first." Gu Muxue pouted. She never thought that things would turn out like this.

After Lin Ruoxi left, looking at the huge living room, Gu Muxue was curled up on the sofa, hugging her knees and staring at a bag of medicine on the coffee table in front of her. The feeling of loneliness and detachment came over her again, making her feel uncomfortable and breathless.

She counted out the pills for one meal again, hesitated for a moment, and swallowed them.

She had no appetite, she sent a message to her roommate saying that she would not return to the dormitory, and now she didn't know what to do...

She felt that Lin Ruoxi's enthusiastic visit was troublesome.

Since you can't refuse, just ignore it.

……

More than ten minutes later, Lin Ruoxi came back with a bag of vegetables and seasonings. However, she found that Gu Muxue was no longer in the living room. The lights in the living room were still on. Was it left for her?
Lin Ruoxi did not choose to disturb Gu Muxue, but put on an apron and went to the kitchen to cook.

In a moment, the aroma of food filled the kitchen, and Lin Ruoxi shouted crisply, "It's time to eat."

Lin Ruoxi waited for a long time but received no response. She looked around the room and found that only one bedroom door was locked...

Lin Ruoxi knocked on the door gently: "Gu Muxue, I made dinner."

The corners of her mouth drooped slightly, and Gu Muxue didn't want to pay attention to her...

Lin Ruoxi returned to the sofa and carefully counted Gu Muxue's medicine. After confirming that Gu Muxue had taken the medicine, Lin Ruoxi tiptoed to take out the key and secretly opened Gu Muxue's room.

She wanted to see how Gu Muxue was doing.

When Gu Muxue heard the sound of the key unlocking the door, she couldn't help but grit her teeth. Why would someone be so impolite?

You stay in someone else's house and even secretly open their door?

She pretended to be asleep just to avoid Lin Ruoxi. Doesn’t Lin Ruoxi have any self-awareness?

The room was pitch black and the curtains were tightly closed. Only the faint light from the living room was reflected into the bedroom, allowing people to barely see a small area.

Lin Ruoxi walked into the room barefoot, put the prepared food on a small table, and delivered it to Gu Muxue's room.

Before leaving, she glanced at the sleeping Gu Muxue and found that her feet were exposed. She leaned over, adjusted the quilt, and gently covered Gu Muxue's feet.

Whether Gu Muxue wants to eat or not is Gu Muxue's business, and whether she wants to take care of others is also her business. She doesn't think the two are in conflict.

In fact, Lin Ruoxi was very panicked. She always felt that she had to do something to make herself feel at ease.

After Lin Ruoxi closed the door and left, Gu Muxue smelled the steaming food and her stomach growled.

She hasn't eaten well for many days, and her appetite has been very low recently...

The food in school is bad on the one hand, and there is always someone watching you while you eat on the other hand.

When a person is alone and quiet, his appetite will be better?
She tried to prop herself up and used the flash of her cell phone to illuminate the room. Several home-cooked dishes were steaming and looked even more conspicuous under the dim light. Gu Muxue was in extreme distress.

If I choose to eat, it would be tantamount to giving Lin Ruoxi positive feedback, and Lin Ruoxi would continue to stay.

If she doesn’t eat, will Lin Ruoxi leave tactfully?
It seems that I won’t…

Gu Muxue picked up the chopsticks, sighed silently, and carefully put the food into her mouth without making any sound...

If she gets another disease, her parents will be distressed...

Just get up early the next day and wash the dishes.

Hmm... maybe Lin Ruoxi will leave soon?

"I'm so sleepy..." Gu Muxue yawned. The medicine she just took had a calming effect, and she didn't expect it to take effect so quickly.

……

Lin Ruoxi sat on the sofa in a daze. It was already nine o'clock in the evening. Should she go back to school?

Xue Rui called her several times to ask where she was, and she said on WeChat that she was having dinner with Gu Muxue.

Although she was very nervous while typing, she couldn't let Xue Rui find out that she was lying.

Gu Muxue hoped that no one would find out that she was ill.

But no matter how you look at it, the beneficiaries are her and Xue Rui.

She decided to hide it from Xue Rui and say that she and Gu Muxue had become good friends.

Lin Ruoxi replied to Xue Rui: [Rui, I will not be going back to school tonight. I will be living with Gu Muxue. Master Yang gave me the key.]

Xue Rui was wandering downstairs of the dormitory building. Just when he was about to go out to find the little girl, he received the news that shocked him to his core.

Lin Ruoxi and Gu Muxue live together?
He had thought about having Lin Ruoxi and Gu Muxue be best friends before, so that the conflict would be easier to deal with...

But the conflict between the two is irreconcilable, and the little girl got the key to the little girl's house?
If you want to confirm it, it’s very simple. Just call Yang Xing.

However, he always felt that there was something else going on.

Xue Rui: [Where is the address? I'll go over and take a look.]

Lin Ruoxi: [Don't come over, she doesn't want to see you. ]

Xue Rui scratched his head, feeling that everything was developing in an uncontrollable direction...

……

The next morning, Xue Rui got up early because he still had a question in his mind. He ran to the dormitory opposite and took a look downstairs.

Lin Ruoxi did not come...

Did he suddenly feel abandoned?
Playing hard to get? What's going on?
I took out my phone and saw that Lin Ruoxi said she would be at school late...

Xue Rui: “…”

At this moment, Lin Ruoxi was standing in front of Gu Muxue's bed. She checked Gu Muxue's class schedule on the background of the campus app. Gu Muxue had a class in the first period this morning, but Gu Muxue didn't seem to have any intention of getting up.

She opened the curtains to let the morning sun shine into the room.

She looked up a lot of information about depression last night, and some people said that getting more sun exposure is helpful for recovery.

The sunlight shone on Gu Muxue's face, but Gu Muxue looked painful and buried her head in the quilt, like a curled up kitten.

"You have a class in the first period this morning. Can you please get up?" Lin Ruoxi said softly, gently lifting a corner of the quilt.

"Hmm..." Gu Muxue murmured in response.

Lin Ruoxi nodded and took away Gu Muxue's plate from last night. Gu Muxue still ate, which was a good thing.

But when Lin Ruoxi washed the dishes, she found that Gu Muxue had fallen asleep again...

"Get up and get dressed." Lin Ruoxi said again.

Gu Muxue twisted her body a few times and responded subconsciously: "Yeah."

Lin Ruoxi knew it might be the effect of the medicine, or it might be that Gu Muxue hadn't had a good rest for a long time...

But you can’t skip classes, and Gu Muxue didn’t ask for leave.

She gently helped Gu Muxue up from the bed: "You can sleep during class, get up first."

She used to be like this when she was in high school, working at home at night and sleeping at school during the day.

Lin Ruoxi sighed. The Gu Muxue in her memory was not like this. She hugged the dazed Gu Muxue with distressed eyes and patted her back gently with her small hands: "It will be fine."

She picked up the clothes on the hanger and slowly put them on Gu Muxue's head.

At this time, Gu Muxue gradually realized something, and her face instantly turned red to her ears. (End of this chapter)
