Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Lin Ruoxi had a complicated expression. She wanted Xue Rui to sit in the main seat, which was the position of the head of the family.

But this is Gu Muxue's home, so it's understandable that Gu Muxue is sitting there...

Xue Rui walked to the left of Gu Muxue, pulled out a chair and sat on it: "What arrangements does Teacher Gu have?"

Xue Rui seems to be a bit chauvinistic on the surface, but that's because Lin Ruoxi has no opinion of her own and most of the time he has to use a commanding tone. In fact, Xue Rui doesn't take the position of "head of the family" that seriously.

And there were no outsiders here, so he didn't have to put on a show for anyone. It didn't matter which of the two girls he liked wanted to sit there.

"Can't you think about it yourself?" Gu Muxue said, knocking on the table.

"Well, let me think about it." Xue Rui rested his chin on his hand and fell into deep thought.

When he was with Lin Ruoxi, most of the housework was done by Lin Ruoxi alone...

Even jobs that boys are good at, such as changing light bulbs and repairing computers, were only shown off once, and there was no chance to "show off my talent" again...

But in front of a "talented freak" like Lin Ruoxi, it seemed like a huge joke.

Lin Ruoxi didn't even give him a second chance to show off, and even refurbished all the old appliances. Then she waited expectantly for him to pat her on the head and give her some compliments.

What chores does he have to do?

"Have you figured it out?" Gu Muxue picked up the small bowl on the table, stood up and served soup to the two of them, and placed it neatly in front of her.

"I will help you wash clothes in the future." Xue Rui said seriously.

Gu Muxue looked a little surprised. It was obvious that girls were better at washing clothes, so why would Xue Rui do this?
While Gu Muxue was thinking, Xue Rui began to explain: "Boys' clothes can be washed casually, but girls must not be careless. Washing underwear is the most particular, otherwise it is easy to cause gynecological diseases..."

Gu Muxue blushed when she heard this. She cursed in a low voice, "Asshole! I'm talking about serious matters."

Xue Rui chuckled and was about to take the bowl to drink some soup to quench his thirst, but Gu Muxue grabbed his wrist.

"Think about what to make before drinking." Gu Muxue said with a smile.

Now that things have developed to this point, she has to make plans for her future life and at least let everyone take on some of the housework so that they can feel each other's contribution.

Last night, Gu Muxue took a hot bath as usual. However, because Lin Ruoxi had her period, she finished her bath early and left. She bathed by herself from beginning to end.

Cleaning the bathtub for the first time and wiping the water stains on the floor...

Gu Muxue realized that what seemed like a trivial matter to her was actually so time-consuming and laborious. No wonder Lin Ruoxi liked to take a shower because it could save more time...

"Teacher Gu, you are too strict." Xue Rui joked.

Although Lin Ruoxi is taller and can even look at Xue Rui at eye level when wearing high heels, Lin Ruoxi would never do so. In her heart, she always looks up at Xue Rui.

However, because Gu Muxue comes from a wealthy family, she has strong self-confidence and self-esteem. Although she occasionally spoils Xue Rui in their relationship, she and Xue Rui are essentially equals. In private, she occasionally enjoys the feeling of being superior.

Xue Rui raised his eyes and looked into Gu Muxue's eyes. They looked at each other silently, but Gu Muxue's gaze would occasionally pass lightly over Lin Ruoxi, and then look at Xue Rui again.

Xue Rui nodded slightly, he understood Gu Muxue's thoughts.

Gu Muxue wants to set rules for her future life, and her attitude is very tough.

"Mu Xue, he doesn't have anything to do. I forgot to cook today. I promise I won't do it again in the future."

Lin Ruoxi took the responsibility on herself.

She came to "atone her sins". Gu Muxue's illness was caused by her and Xue Rui, but Lin Ruoxi believed that Xue Rui made the mistake because of her inaction.

So, in Lin Ruoxi's view, it was all her own fault.

Xue Rui shook his head repeatedly: "No, how can I watch two beauties working so hard for me? I'll wash the dishes after dinner."

Xue Rui felt that Gu Muxue’s arrangement was very good. Participating more in housework would help promote communication and maintain family harmony.

"Well, the boy is teachable." Gu Muxue nodded with a smile and brought a bowl of tomato egg drop soup to Xue Rui.

Then she picked up another bowl of soup and placed it on the seat to her right: "Ruoxi, take off your apron quickly. Sit here."

"Xixi." Xue Rui coughed lightly and reached out to pull the chair to his left away.

It doesn't matter who sits on the main seat, but his position is important.

As long as Lin Ruoxi sits on his left, he still holds one hand in each.

Lin Ruoxi stuffed her hands into the big pockets of her apron, her eyes wandering between Xue Rui and Gu Muxue. She never thought that having a meal would be so stressful.

Xue Rui and Gu Muxue both wanted her to sit next to them, but who should she listen to?

On one side was the person she deeply loved, and on the other side was the person she owed. Lin Ruoxi's nerves were constantly pulled at by the two of them, and her tears dripped onto her apron like broken strings.

"I...you guys eat, I'm not hungry anymore."

After saying this, Lin Ruoxi slowly walked into the room. She didn't know what to choose. She didn't want Xue Rui and Gu Muxue to have a conflict again because of her.

Gu Muxue glared at Xue Rui and pretended to be angry and said, "Xiao Rui, what are you doing?"

Lin Ruoxi is such a girl. She always considers other people's feelings first when solving problems. If both she and Xue Rui are strong, Lin Ruoxi will be the most uncomfortable one to be caught in the middle.

"Who is making a fuss? She obviously wants to sit next to me." Xue Rui said slowly. He would not give in to the girl in this matter.

Gu Muxue wanted to balance the relationship among the three people so that they could get along with each other on an equal footing, rather than having one party compromise with the other.

But Xue Rui did not agree with the girl's idea. Lin Ruoxi's character was difficult to change. He had tried to give Lin Ruoxi a status in the family, but the little girl was always worried about gains and losses and was always afraid of being abandoned by him.

Giving is Lin Ruoxi's way of expressing love, and it is also Lin Ruoxi's habit of making a living over the years.

The power of habit is so terrible that it can only be changed by the greater power of time;

As long as Xue Rui continues to be tolerant and forgiving of Lin Ruoxi, one day Lin Ruoxi will understand that even if she does nothing, no one will drive her away.

"Ruoxi, sit next to him." Gu Muxue saw Lin Ruoxi about to walk into the room and hurriedly called out.

When Xue Rui heard Gu Muxue's somewhat flustered tone, he couldn't help but curl up the corners of his mouth.

Gu Muxue cares very much about Lin Ruoxi's feelings!
This makes it easier...

Lin Ruoxi paused, slowly sat down next to Xue Rui, and looked up at Gu Muxue again.

Gu Muxue smiled and nodded, preparing to pass the soup to Lin Ruoxi.

"Xixi, I'm not the only one who has kissed you, right?" Xue Rui asked, with a tone of accountability.

Lin Ruoxi looked flustered and shook her head repeatedly, "It was Mu Xue... She asked me for your first kiss."

Xue Rui smiled, and the little girl chose to "complain" immediately.

"So, have you ever thought about why?" Xue Rui asked, turning his head to look at Gu Muxue.

"Xiao Rui, you...you shut up." Gu Muxue bit the chopsticks nervously.

Gu Muxue was afraid that Xue Rui would expose the secret in her heart. This feeling was too complicated and she had not yet faced her own heart.

Lin Ruoxi murmured, "Well, I don't know, I just feel weird..."

"I don't know either. Let's guess?" Xue Rui said while holding back his laughter.

"Tsk, you just want a seat? I'll give it to you." Gu Muxue said in her heart. She slowly stood up and sat on the right side of the main seat.

Xue Rui was forcing her to give up her position, and the means he used were very cunning.

She knew Xue Rui was the most suitable person to sit in this position, because there couldn't be two people with strong opinions in a family, otherwise there would be endless quarrels. But... she was just a little unwilling.

Gu Muxue wanted Xue Rui to beg her, but Xue Rui used an unexpected way to force her to "surrender".

"Then the position has been decided?" Xue Rui asked with a smile.

"Yeah." Gu Muxue responded reluctantly.

Her "little braid" was caught by Xue Rui.

Xue Rui stood up and sat in the main seat. Seeing Gu Muxue's obedient appearance, he plucked up the courage to put his hand on Gu Muxue's head.

Gu Muxue’s neck was stiff. When had she ever been touched on the head like this?

Even her parents have never done this, it's like they are touching a pet!
Xue Rui thought that it would not be a bad thing for Gu Muxue to have other feelings for Lin Ruoxi, and the girl would be obedient because of this.

In fact, he had received this kind of treatment before, mostly because Gu Muxue had done something wrong, either accidentally hurting him or causing him to catch a cold or fever...

In short, Xue Rui is very satisfied that he can now easily get the "well-behaved version" of Gu Muxue.

"Xixi, thanks to you." Xue Rui was very grateful in his heart. Lin Ruoxi was simply his lucky star.

When Lin Ruoxi saw Gu Muxue being touched on the head by Xue Rui, she also lowered her head and leaned over.

Xue Rui smiled and stretched out his left hand, rubbing Lin Ruoxi's head wantonly. To be precise, Gu Muxue's head lowered reluctantly, and the muscles on her neck clearly showed reluctance and resistance.

"Sigh~"

Xue Rui subconsciously took a breath. Gu Muxue pinched the flesh on his thigh under the table, and only pinched a layer of skin!

"Let's eat quickly, the food is getting cold." Xue Rui quickly let go of his hand and said.

I knew Gu Muxue wasn’t so easy to touch!
Gu Muxue reached out to tidy up her hair. She frowned and glared at Xue Rui. She was very angry today.

Lin Ruoxi was a little disappointed. She picked up some shredded potatoes for Xue Rui and said, "Rui, try it. This is made by Mu Xue."

"Really?" Xue Rui was surprised when he saw the evenly thick and thin shredded potatoes with vinegar. Gu Muxue, who used to burn cookies, could now cook such a difficult dish?
Shredded potatoes are a relatively difficult dish for beginners to make, as they can easily get burnt if the heat is not controlled well, but the color of the dish in front of him was very beautiful.

Xue Rui took a bite and said in surprise: "It was actually cut without a grater."

"Huh? Can you taste it?" Gu Muxue was also surprised. She was sure that Xue Rui had not been to the kitchen today.

"There's a lot of tricks to this. The grater is under pressure from all sides, so it will scrape out the moisture and starch from the potatoes, making them a bit dry. Potatoes cut with a kitchen knife are much crisper, and Mu Xue's cuts are more even than with a grater..."

Xue Rui analyzed the matter with Gu Muxue in a very logical manner, praising him as he went along.

"Ruoxi prepared the dishes. When I got up, I found the shredded potatoes soaking in the basin. I just fried them." Gu Muxue said with a pout.

Xue Rui's mouth twitched, and he went up to flatter the horse...

That’s right, how could a novice’s knife skills be so good?
He was indeed careless! Now he has to save the situation quickly.

"That's also amazing. The core of vinegar-fried potato shreds is vinegar. The timing is very important when adding vinegar to the pot. If you add it too early, it won't be crisp enough, and if you add it too late, the pot will get burnt..."

"A little more or less won't make it taste this good. Even a chef with more than ten years of experience may not be as good as you. Home-cooked dishes have few seasonings, so they test your skills the most..."

Xue Rui chose to praise the cooking techniques, which he learned from what he heard in the restaurant kitchen. He just had to say the opposite of what the master said to the apprentice.

"Oh, it was Ruoxi who added the vinegar. I was so busy that I forgot to add vinegar." Gu Muxue's rosy lips drooped slightly.

Xue Rui turned his head and looked at Lin Ruoxi with a look of despair, thinking that the little girl had dug a huge hole for him!

Lin Ruoxi knew she had made a mistake, so she obediently buried her face in the bowl.

"Eat quickly, or it will get cold." Xue Rui quickly changed the subject.

If Xue Rui answered a few more questions incorrectly, he was afraid that he would be the first to fail...

Gu Muxue looked at Xue Rui's nervous expression, and the corners of her mouth raised slightly.

Although Xue Rui didn't praise her on point this time, she could feel that Xue Rui valued her.

After dinner, the restless Lin Ruoxi was forced to sit on the sofa and play computer games. Gu Muxue was "supervising" Lin Ruoxi playing computer games, while Xue Rui was washing dishes and pots in the kitchen.

After washing the pots and a few bowls, Xue Rui stopped to take a rest. He opened the JD.com app and placed an order for a Siemens dishwasher.

Suddenly, Xue Rui caught a glimpse of a figure out of the corner of his eye. He quickly put his phone into his pocket and lowered his head to wash the dishes seriously.

Xue Rui pretended to glance up casually and saw Gu Muxue walk into the kitchen with her head down, silently picked up the greasy plates and began to wash them.

Gu Muxue whispered, "Xiao Rui, I just started learning, and I'm not doing well yet."

"Mu Xue, I'm already very touched that you can go into the kitchen for me. I know you don't have to do this." Xue Rui said sincerely.

Even if it is the same thing, different people will show different attitudes when doing it.

With Gu Muxue's family background, she can be picked up and dropped off by a Maybach when she goes out. That is a treatment that many bosses who have worked hard all their lives would not dare to even dream of.

There was no need for Gu Muxue to waste her energy on these things. She could just spend some money to hire a bunch of chefs and nannies, but Gu Muxue still did it herself.

Now she is accompanying him in the kitchen to wash dishes. How can this be done by a rich lady?
He had not forgotten Gu Qingshan’s recent abnormal behavior, which meant he was planning to recruit him as his son-in-law!
Even Gu Muxue's parents wanted to find an obedient son-in-law for him, but he was content to enjoy Gu Muxue's service.

If Gu Qingshan knew what Gu Muxue had done for him, how wronged she had been...

Well, even if he died eight hundred times it wouldn’t be enough!

Xue Rui gently walked behind Gu Muxue and held her hands with both hands: "I will take care of the dishes at home from now on."

"Xiao Rui, could you please stop using my hands as a rag before you say that?" Gu Muxue scolded with a smile.

"Aren't you wearing gloves?" Xue Rui said with a smile, thinking about returning the dishwasher later...

Xue Rui leaned forward, and Gu Muxue looked up at that moment, and the two looked at each other calmly.

Gu Muxue blinked several times quickly, and her long eyelashes kept brushing across her eyes, as if blowing away all the dust in the air, making her eyes appear very clear.

How come such a cute girl is so smart?

Xue Rui couldn't help but move forward and gave her a kiss.

Gu Muxue's body jumped straight, and she gently bit the tip of Xue Rui's tongue: "Asshole, Ruoxi is in the living room."

"It's okay, she can't see."

Xue Rui thought that this was a showdown and there was no longer any barrier between him and Gu Muxue.

He could finally ask about topics that he had not dared to touch before.

Xue Rui couldn't help but ask, "Mu Xue, I'm curious about one thing. When you were in high school, you were jealous and ignored me for a whole month. Why are you so sure that Lin Ruoxi and I have a relationship? Did you send someone to follow me?"

"I did a DNA test on Ruoxi's hair, and it's an exact match to the hair that fell from your body." Gu Muxue said calmly.

Xue Rui suddenly felt a chill on his back. Gu Muxue and Zhao Lizhen looked so alike!

The mother and daughter did exactly the same thing, and only started to exert pressure after getting solid evidence!
"Don't bother Teacher Gu with his efforts in the future. Just ask directly and I will answer all my questions." Xue Rui said with three fingers pointing to the sky.

"Hmph, I don't think you would dare." Gu Muxue said with a snort.

After saying that, Gu Muxue thought for a moment and added, "The same should be done to Ruoxi." (End of this chapter)
