Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Gu Muxue panicked and hurriedly tried to grab the fallen medicine box, but Xue Rui was faster and instantly grabbed it in his hand. He picked it up and shook it gently, making a "rustling" sound.

"What kind of medicine is this?" Xue Rui muttered to himself. There were three words written on the box: morning, noon, and evening. Now only the evening compartment had pills left.

But no matter whether it was morning or noon, he did not see Gu Muxue taking the medicine, which meant that she took it secretly.

However, it may be leftovers from previous meals, and it does not prove that Gu Muxue is sick.

Just when Xue Rui was about to ask something, he suddenly felt a tingling sensation in his left hand and Gu Muxue bit his hand.

While Xue Rui was distracted, Gu Muxue hurriedly stuffed the medicine box back into her bag.

"Who told you to rummage through my bag?" Gu Muxue angrily took back the medicine box and said to herself, "I had acne some time ago, so I went to the hospital to get some medicine."

Xue Rui looked into Lin Ruoxi's eyes in the rearview mirror and asked, "Xixi, is that so?"

"Well... yes." Lin Ruoxi said softly.

Xue Rui sighed in his heart. Lin Ruoxi didn't even look back. What's more important is that when Gu Muxue bit him just now, the little girl didn't stop her.

In Xue Rui's view, Lin Ruoxi's inaction is considered as an "accomplice".

The combined age of Gu Muxue and Lin Ruoxi is only in their thirties, how could they deceive him?
However, Xue Rui did not rush to ask, and briefly changed the topic: "Mu Xue, you must have been eating more spicy food recently. I am thinking of opening a hot pot restaurant."

Gu Muxue avoided his gaze and hid her bag away from Xue Rui: "Ruoxi, where is Guo Ziyan?"

Lin Ruoxi started the car: "Well, he said he had something urgent to do, but I don't think he wants to play with us anymore."

Xue Rui grinned. Guo Ziyan must have lost his confidence after being hit by the little girl, so he found an excuse to run away.

Gu Muxue took out his cell phone, found the number Guo Ziyan had given him before and dialed it.

The phone rang for a few seconds, and a slightly tired voice came from the other end of the phone: "Hello? Who is it?"

"Guo Ziyan, I'm Gu Muxue. If the elders ask you what you did today, remember to say that you played with us." Gu Muxue said coldly.

"Oh, okay." Guo Ziyan said blankly. He never thought that Gu Muxue would use a commanding tone.

"Hang up." Gu Muxue said and hung up the phone.

Xue Rui poked the little girl's nose and said, "I didn't expect you to have two faces. I'm not worried that you will be isolated by others. You are the leader of the gang. You don't play with others and let them act."

The girl was very thoughtful and actually made Guo Ziyan "confess".

"You slander me!" Gu Muxue frowned, grabbed Xue Rui's finger and bit it.

"Hiss!" Xue Rui took a breath subconsciously and knew that the little girl's nose was not so easy to poke. Now his index finger was bitten directly.

However, Gu Muxue didn't really use any force; his fingers only felt a slight pain.

Xue Rui stretched his finger inside and gently touched Gu Muxue's tongue: "Muxue, I forgot to wash my hands after going to the toilet just now."

Gu Muxue's neck stiffened, her face visibly flushed, her teeth gradually loosened, and she spat at Xue Rui: "Pooh!"

Xue Rui narrowed his eyes and dodged backwards, pulling Gu Muxue into his arms.

Gu Muxue glanced secretly out of the car window. The two people in the car were people she could completely trust. The outside world's gaze was no longer there. She felt a sense of security in her heart. She rubbed against Xue Rui's arms, hid her head behind the seat, and enjoyed the quiet moment.

Xue Rui tentatively put his hand on the back of Gu Muxue's head, but the person in his arms didn't react at all and let him touch her head, which made him feel like petting a cat.

Is this still the Gu Muxue he knows?
"What do you want to do by touching my head all the time?" Gu Muxue asked with her eyes closed.

Xue Rui said shamelessly: "Let me see if you lose your hair."

"You're the one losing hair!" Gu Muxue lightly hit Xue Rui on the leg.

"Mu Xue, why are you swearing?"

"Where is it?"

"That's how people are cursed in Guangdong Province."

Gu Muxue said angrily: "Asshole, no...don't make such a joke on me."

……

Lin Ruoxi watched the two of them playing in the rearview mirror.

When she saw Xue Rui holding another girl in his arms, she felt a little uncomfortable at first, but when she saw Xue Rui smiling so happily, she also smiled happily.

"Where are we going to play?" Lin Ruoxi asked.

She has to plan her route well, otherwise there will be traffic jams.

"I'm a little sleepy. Let's just walk around." Gu Muxue took off her shoes, curled up in the back seat, and took a nap with her head resting on Xue Rui's legs.

Gu Muxue's mind was blank. She knew that her recent behavior was very abnormal. For example, Xue Rui now put his hand on her neck and gently touched her chin, which was similar to tickling Xiaobu's chin.

But she was too tired to resist, and she always felt sleepy after taking the medicine...

Xue Rui did not continue talking. The little girl was lying in his arms, looking at him with soft yet confused eyes.

But he did not question Lin Ruoxi immediately. He just stared quietly at the rearview mirror in the car. He planned to ask the little girl about the secret today.

Lin Ruoxi's eyes were evasive, she didn't know how to respond.

Should I tell Xue Rui everything about Gu Muxue’s illness?
Will Xue Rui blame her?

Xue Rui won’t do that.

Gu Muxue didn't mean to blame her, so why was she so nervous?
……

Lin Ruoxi drove the car very steadily and did not disturb Gu Muxue who was in a deep sleep.

"Let's go to the temple. Mu Xue said before that she wanted to go." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice.

Xue Rui was slightly stunned. Pray to God?
He knew many people who liked to believe in these illusory things, but most of them were either seeking wealth or luck, or they were bored at an old age and wanted to find some psychological comfort.

For example, his mother, Ren Qunfang, always likes to do some kind of peace and happiness thing and spend money to buy peace for her family.

If young people pray to gods and Buddhas, it is usually because they have problems that cannot be solved or feel confused about the future;

Gu Muxue might belong to the latter...

Lin Ruoxi asked in a low voice: "Rui, which temple do you want to go to?"

"I don't believe this. It's the same everywhere."

Xue Rui thought about it and added in his mind: Except for the God of Wealth.

"There are many temples in Chang'an, some are for praying for peace, some are for praying for marriage..." Lin Ruoxi said weakly.

Xue Rui thought for a moment and then said, "Where is the best place to pray for marriage?"

Lin Ruoxi paused: "Then... let's go to Guangren Temple."

You can pray for peace and good marriage there.

Lin Ruoxi found a parking lot nearby. After the car stopped, Xue Rui shook his legs gently: "Mu Xue, are you going to sleep tonight?"

Gu Muxue stretched lazily on Xue Rui's legs, sparkling tears squeezed out of the corners of her eyes. Suddenly, she found a warm hand on her belly, and she sat up nervously.

"Be careful not to catch a cold on your stomach. I'm covering it for you." Xue Rui said.

Gu Muxue looked at Xue Rui warily. The hand was clearly trying to climb up. Xue Rui wanted to take advantage again...

"Where are we going now?" Gu Muxue simply tidied her hair.

She had thought about many scenarios of dating for two people, but where would be appropriate for three people?

"Temple." Xue Rui opened the car door and made a gesture of invitation to Gu Muxue.

Gu Muxue glanced at Lin Ruoxi, her peach blossom eyes slightly smiling. Her mother had the habit of worshiping Buddha, and she did want to visit the temple some time ago. Today, Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi came with her.

"Let's go." Gu Muxue put her hands behind her back and walked in front of the three people.

She thought this was a good idea, Xue Rui would follow his lead, and Lin Ruoxi would also listen to her.

Even though she vaguely felt that Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi had a closer relationship, she was still the leader.

But after taking a few steps, she found that the two people behind her did not follow her. She frowned and asked, "Why don't you leave?"

Xue Rui's mouth twitched and he pushed Lin Ruoxi's arm.

Lin Ruoxi said weakly: "Muxue...you are going in the wrong direction." "I...of course I know." Gu Muxue pouted.

Xue Rui hurriedly tried to smooth things over, "Of course Teacher Gu knows. Teacher Gu was testing us just now, just like the teacher explained the wrong question."

Gu Muxue glared at Xue Rui fiercely. Isn't this just making things worse?

"Xiao Linzi, lead the way." Xue Rui said.

Lin Ruoxi tilted her head and thought for a moment: "Yes, Your Majesty."

Xue Rui couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. The little girl was still adorable. He used to call his apprentice Lin Ruoxi master, but today she actually called him emperor.

"Then I want to be a tyrant."

Xue Rui quietly took Gu Muxue's hand, and signaled to Lin Ruoxi with his eyes, asking her to stand on his other side.

However, Gu Muxue shook off Xue Rui's hand: "You wish."

Xue Rui still wants to hold one hand each?
She accepted it cowardly, but that doesn't mean she can be bullied at any time!

Xue Rui let out a long sigh. Gu Muxue was not that easy to fool. Now she was arm in arm with Lin Ruoxi.

But there was still space reserved for him on both sides. He could go to either side, but the idea of ​​having one on each side was not realized.

Xue Rui chose Gu Muxue's side almost without hesitation and left the C position to Gu Muxue.

There are many pedestrians coming and going in the parking lot. It may be as difficult as climbing to the sky from outside, but it is a different story when there is no one...

The three of them walked into Guangren Temple hand in hand. The red walls and golden roof made the sunlight sparkle brightly under the reflection of the golden roof, exuding a charming scent of RMB.

Most of the tourists coming and going are here to take photos and check in, but not many of them actually worship the Buddha.

To be honest, even though Xue Rui had lived in Chang'an for many years, he had only looked at the door a few times, and this was the first time he walked in.

Gu Muxue had a clear purpose when she walked in, and she headed for the Main Hall.

Xue Rui was impressed by the nice green environment and felt a bit helpless about accompanying a girl shopping.

I'm bored, but I don't know where to sit.

When Gu Muxue put her hands together in front of the Buddha statue, he stood behind and watched, while Lin Ruoxi stood beside him.

"Why don't you worship? Do you think it's too expensive?" Xue Rui asked in a low voice.

It costs more than ten yuan to burn incense. I’m afraid the little girl can’t afford it, right?

Lin Ruoxi looked around and whispered in Xue Rui's ear: "I don't believe in Buddhism, I only believe in you."

She had prayed like that when she was little, but nothing she prayed for came true.

But all the promises made by Xue Rui will become reality.

Gu Muxue slowly turned her head and walked towards the next Buddha statue: "Xiao Rui, I don't actually believe in these things, but every time I worship, I always feel more at ease."

Xue Rui nodded and followed Gu Muxue to visit the next attraction.

Until he walked in front of an unknown Buddha statue, Xue Rui clasped his hands together and bowed with a solemn expression.

Lin Ruoxi was stunned, and Xue Rui followed suit, which meant that this Bodhisattva was effective. She also walked forward and bowed her head.

Gu Muxue was stunned: "You two only worship Manjusri Bodhisattva?"

Before, these two people were not interested at all. Do they want to ask Manjushri for help?

"Who is Manjushri Bodhisattva? I don't know him." Xue Rui shook his head.

Gu Muxue looked confused. She really couldn't understand what these two people were thinking.

Lin Ruoxi explained: "Manjusri Bodhisattva is a symbol of wisdom, and people who pursue wisdom..."

Lin Ruoxi had done her homework and remembered exactly what each Bodhisattva was in charge of.

When they heard someone introducing the scenic spot, tourists around gathered around. The beautiful lady shared some Buddhist knowledge with them. This was a rare opportunity.

Xue Rui reached out and pulled Lin Ruoxi behind him: "Don't bow so much, you are smart enough, don't block the way of us ordinary people."

"Oh... then I won't bow." Lin Ruoxi said obediently. Xue Rui likes girls who are a little stupid.

"Xiao Rui, do you want to become smart?" Gu Muxue tapped Xue Rui's head with her knuckles.

Xue Rui shook his head and pointed at the hand of the Bodhisattva statue and said, "Look, Mu Xue, she made an OK gesture to me. I thought she was easy to talk to."

Gu Muxue looked up and saw Manjushri Bodhisattva making the international “OK” gesture with his left hand.

A little kid shouted, "I saw someone making a 'yeah' sign."

The tourists around couldn't help laughing after hearing this, and even Gu Muxue's shoulders shook with laughter.

"You are the only one who talks too much. Let's go." Gu Muxue said in a cheerful tone.

She knew Xue Rui was just trying to make her happy.

It was indeed a good idea to go out for a walk, but she really didn't want to go out without anyone to accompany her.

As long as Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi are by her side, she should be able to get better soon.

Xue Rui is her medicine, which is much more effective than praying to Buddha.

After Gu Muxue came out, she went straight to the corner and no longer looked at those magnificent and ethereal buildings.

"Mu Xue, don't you want to worship anymore?" Xue Rui said with a smile.

He could vaguely feel the change in Gu Muxue's mentality, as if his wish had come true.

"Let's go and take a look at the wishing wall over there." Gu Muxue grabbed Xue Rui's hand and walked towards the wishing wall on the west side.

Lin Ruoxi hurriedly jogged a few steps to catch up with the two of them.

"Go pray somewhere else. Ruoxi and I have something to talk about." Gu Muxue suddenly remembered the incident with the medicine box at noon. With Xue Rui's sensitivity, he would find out sooner or later.

Xue Rui thought that the girl must be writing something embarrassing again, but she just didn't want him to see it.

He was very tactful and moved away from her. Then he took out his cell phone and sent a message to Xue Yao, who was wasting her vacation at home: [Yaoyao, send me the jar of little stars in my room.]

He has some dirty laundry on the girl, most likely full of embarrassing stuff.

The dark history written during junior high and high school!
He can use that can of stars to feed Gu Muxue for the rest of his life!

……

After sending Xue Rui away, Gu Muxue and Lin Ruoxi stood in front of the red wall. In front of them were countless paper cards with red tassels hanging below, filled with the wishes of tourists from all over the world.

"He will find out sooner or later, so why not tell him." Gu Muxue said calmly.

Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath and said slowly: "Okay, I'll tell him tonight."

Gu Muxue sighed, and Lin Ruoxi seemed a little scared.

"Ruoxi, I don't want to talk to him. It seems like I'm showing weakness." Gu Muxue said in a low voice.

"Well, I'll tell him." Lin Ruoxi's breathing quickened.

Gu Muxue turned around and looked directly into Lin Ruoxi's eyes: "What are you afraid of? He won't blame you."

"I know..." Lin Ruoxi's eyes were red, she figured it out.

She was not afraid of Xue Rui's blame, but she was afraid that after Xue Rui knew that Gu Muxue was sick, he would give all his love to Gu Muxue.

"I like that Xue Rui is partial to me, but..." Lin Ruoxi burst into tears.

Gu Muxue pulled Lin Ruoxi to a deserted corner, stretched out her arms and gently hugged Lin Ruoxi. She whispered to comfort her, "Don't cry, talk slowly."

"Yes... I'm sorry, I'm a selfish bad woman. I agreed to give you half, but now I'm so afraid of losing the half that belongs to me." Lin Ruoxi said in a low voice.

Gu Muxue gently patted Lin Ruoxi's back: "Ruoxi, I never thought of competing with you. I will give you what he doesn't give you. Don't cry."

"Really?" Lin Ruoxi asked weakly.

"Really." (End of this chapter)
