Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

October 6th was the day before the end of the National Day Golden Week, and the next day I had to report to school.

Xue Rui was too tired to move after accompanying Gu Qingshan and his wife on a trip in the first half of the week. In addition, it was drizzling outside, so this kind of weather was perfect for staying at home, especially with two beautiful girls.

After all, a single man and a single woman are after the rain...

There's always a little story, right?
Xue Rui was quite grateful to God at first, but after thinking about it carefully, he felt that there was no need to thank him.

Lin Ruoxi is a typical tech geek who doesn't like to go out. After Gu Muxue suffered from depression, her willingness to communicate with the outside world also decreased. Even if there had been no rain, the ending would probably have been the same.

Xue Rui had just finished dinner and was sitting on the sofa, browsing the news on his phone, with his other hand entwining Lin Ruoxi's small feet in white socks.

Gu Muxue didn't let him play with his feet, saying that his hands were restless and always liked to climb up.

However, Lin Ruoxi was still very generous and even changed into a pair of brand new white socks for Xue Rui to pinch.

"Xixi, don't be so wasteful in the future and don't change your socks." Xue Rui reached out and scratched the little girl's soles.

Lin Ruoxi smiled and twisted her body: "Pilled socks feel uncomfortable to the touch."

Xue Rui poked Lin Ruoxi's little feet: "Xixi, this is why you are an amateur. Cotton socks that don't pill have no soul."

"Itchy~" Lin Ruoxi subconsciously closed her entire foot, but did not move her foot out of Xue Rui's hand.

Xue Rui would tickle the little girl's soles from time to time, which in turn brought out her bird-like clear laughter.

"Hmph, a perverted hobby." Gu Muxue's voice came from not far away, with a hint of dissatisfaction in her tone.

Xue Rui turned his head to look at the figure on the dining table. Gu Muxue was wearing a dark blue nightgown. In front of her was a glowing Apple computer, next to her left hand was a cup of coffee, and Xiaobu was sleeping peacefully on her lap.

This reminded Xue Rui of Zhao Lizhen whom he saw at Gu Muxue's house, who often sat alone in the corner working.

"Can strong women also be inherited?" Xue Rui said to himself.

Gu Muxue was planning to invest in his business and said she wanted to understand his company's operating conditions. She had been checking the accounts for two days. There was always a tense atmosphere around the dining table, but it was a different scene on the sofa.

But as soon as Gu Muxue opened her mouth, Lin Ruoxi's voice would be lowered, causing Xue Rui to listen attentively.

"What's wrong with Mu Xue? She hasn't talked much these past two days. Is her condition getting worse?" Lin Ruoxi whispered into Xue Rui's ear.

"That's because she doesn't want to pay attention to you. Do you want to know why?" Xue Rui asked loudly to attract Gu Muxue's attention.

In fact, it was because Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi had nothing to do when they were together. Either Lin Ruoxi was pestering Xue Rui for a hug, or they were doing their own things. For example, now Xue Rui was playing with his feet and Lin Ruoxi was typing code.

There is no need for verbal communication between the two, but mostly communication through silent tacit understanding.

The so-called tacit understanding is the inertia left over from Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi living together for a long time. As soon as Xue Rui stretches out his hand, Lin Ruoxi knows what Xue Rui wants.

For example, if the sunlight in the early morning was glaring, Xue Rui would push Lin Ruoxi, and Lin Ruoxi would get up and close the curtains;

Xue Rui rubbed his face on Lin Ruoxi's back, and the little girl knew to turn over and give him the facial cleanser.

Xue Rui and Gu Muxue have a greater spiritual understanding. Many times, Gu Muxue knows what Xue Rui wants to say after only half of the sentence is said.

Now Xue Rui's loud shouting attracted Gu Muxue's unfriendly gaze.

"Yeah, I want to know." Lin Ruoxi closed her laptop and knelt down in front of Xue Rui to listen.

"Because you scared her that day, I thought you were going to beat Mu Xue." Xue Rui reached out and poked Lin Ruoxi's forehead.

Gu Muxue breathed a sigh of relief when she heard that, and then glared at Xue Rui with resentment. Xue Rui knew that Lin Ruoxi would take it seriously, but he still "framed" Lin Ruoxi.

Last night she quietly asked Lin Ruoxi what she wanted to do at that time. Lin Ruoxi's answer was beyond her expectations, but also reasonable.

Lin Ruoxi secretly discussed with her: When she gets angry with Xue Rui in the future, can she take the beating on behalf of Xue Rui...

"Xiao Rui, that's enough." Gu Muxue interrupted their conversation.

"Someone used to let me take advantage of him, but now that I have an official status, he won't even let me touch my feet." Xue Rui said faintly.

Lin Ruoxi looked around and found that Xue Rui and Gu Muxue were talking very obscurely. Did they mean to go to sleep?

"That's all you can do." Gu Muxue blushed. She stood up and walked into the kitchen. She took out a bowl of washed strawberries and put them on the coffee table. She picked one up and stuffed it into Xue Rui's mouth: "Eat and stop talking."

Xue Rui chewed a strawberry and said incoherently: "It's not that I'm resentful, Mu Xue, you don't know how to talk to Lao Gu, he guards against me like a thief, do you think I've ever done anything that crossed the line here?"

Xue Rui had to take the initiative to run back to the school dormitory tonight and make a video call to Gu Qingshan to "actively report" and prove that he did not harm the cabbage in Gu Qingshan's family.

However, due to the cooperation of "Little White Cabbage", Gu Qingshan still thought that Xue Rui, the wild boar, was staying in the school shack obediently. In fact, Xue Rui had already built a nest next to the white cabbage and was sleeping.

Of course, Xue Rui had only built a nest and hadn't found the opportunity to bite yet. Gu Muxue looked weak, but if he really bit her hard, she would probably get a mouth full of thorns.

"Ruoxi wanted to sleep with you, and I...I gave in to her." Gu Muxue's eyes were wandering.

Lin Ruoxi was stunned, and was deeply moved. She whispered, "Thank you, Mu Xue, but I have had Xue Rui all to myself for so long. Let him accompany you today."

It was agreed that half of it would be given to Gu Muxue, but in reality Xue Rui's companionship took away too much from her, and she felt that she owed Gu Muxue something.

"Xixi is so great." Xue Rui praised in his heart, and used a little more strength in his hands, making the little girl roll on the sofa.

Gu Muxue wanted to use Lin Ruoxi as a shield, but Lin Ruoxi didn't understand what Gu Muxue meant at all.

In Lin Ruoxi's heart, he is the most precious. Whoever he is with is the other party taking advantage. Lin Ruoxi never thought that Gu Muxue would suffer a loss.

"I...I..." Gu Muxue nervously grabbed the tissue on the coffee table and wiped each of her fingers vigorously. Her fingertips turned blue from being pinched by her.

Although she knew that she would have to face it one day, every time Xue Rui had thoughts about her, she was looking forward to it, but more importantly, she was afraid of facing the unknown...

She would occasionally imagine Xue Rui's frivolous appearance in her mind, as if she would definitely have her in her arms in the future...

Will he be as casual with him as he is with Lin Ruoxi?

In short...it’s Xue Rui who is anxious.

"Drip drop~"

Xue Rui's cell phone alarm rang. He turned it off helplessly, stood up and stretched his body: "Old Gu is urging me to come. I'll go to the dormitory first and come back soon."

"Well, I'll go with you." Lin Ruoxi also climbed up from the sofa.

Gu Muxue stood up and walked to the balcony. She stretched out her hand to feel the drizzle outside the window. She took a deep breath of the cool air and turned back to shout to the two people who were about to go out:
"Come back, it's not safe outside because of the rain. I'll call Dad."

Xue Rui paused and fell on the sofa: "Mu Xue, tell him that I'm not going to leave here tonight."

"Okay." Gu Muxue said with a smile, and then raised the camera of her mobile phone to Xue Rui's cheek.

When Xue Rui heard the prompt sound of the video call, even though he knew the girl would not do that, he still avoided the camera guiltily.

Gu Muxue snorted coldly, walked to the balcony with her phone in hand, and pointed the camera out the window.

“Dad, it’s raining heavily in Chang’an. Is it raining at home?” “Remember to put on more clothes when it’s cold. Don’t go out to play with Xiaorui if it rains.” Gu Qingshan’s gentle voice came from the phone.

Xue Rui didn't even dare to breathe, thinking that the first thing Lao Gu asked him was really...

"I have so many friends, why do you have to stick with him? Is your daughter a silly girl whose mind is full of love?" Gu Muxue turned around and glanced at Xue Rui coldly.

Xue Rui grinned. This really didn't sound like something an eighteen-year-old would say...

Lin Ruoxi pursed her lips. She felt as if Gu Muxue was secretly nodding her head and saying that she had no future.

"That way Dad will be relieved. You can't let him into the house casually, such as calling you because he's drunk, asking you to go to a midnight movie because the dormitory is closed... In short, no matter what excuse you make, you can't meet him after 8pm."

Xue Rui's eyes twitched. Men understand men best. Gu Qingshan's defensive approach almost blocked the road!
Coupled with Gu Muxue's arrogant personality, if he hadn't taken Gu Muxue in, the girl would probably have been single for the rest of her life.

Lin Ruoxi pricked up her ears and listened carefully. The trick Uncle Gu mentioned seemed to be about falling in love?

"Rui, why haven't you used these on me?" Lin Ruoxi asked in a low voice. She always felt that there was something missing in her relationship with Xue Rui.

Xue Rui poked Lin Ruoxi's head: "You shouldn't ask me, you should reflect on yourself."

Xue Rui thinks that Lao Gu is not a good person. When he was young, he was handsome, gentle and arrogant. The love letters he wrote were all sour poems, and he even knew the tricks to trick girls into staying out all night!

How many girls in that era could withstand this combination of punches?
Uh… that’s not right. His mother just held on. Gu Qingshan’s tricks didn’t work on the uneducated and greedy girl. She couldn’t understand what Gu Qingshan wrote at all. She only thought about what to eat next…

Lin Ruoxi answered without thinking: "Well, that's my problem, eating strawberries."

Lin Ruoxi pinched the waist of the strawberry with her fingers, allowing Xue Rui to eat only the front part, so that she could slowly eat the rest.

Xue Rui's mouth corners slightly raised. Lin Ruoxi has a high level of education, but these tricks don't work on her.

……

"I know, Dad. You should get some rest early."

Gu Muxue glanced at Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi who were sitting on the sofa eating strawberries, and suddenly felt that this situation... was inexplicably exciting?

“Okay, I’ll call Xiao Rui and go to bed.” Gu Qingshan said with a smile.

Gu Muxue panicked and her thoughts raced in her mind, trying to find a reason for Xue Rui not to answer the call.

Gu Muxue said angrily, "Dad, what can you talk about with him? I get angry when I talk about him. He went out with his classmates to have fun all night yesterday, and now he hasn't replied to my message. He must still be sleeping. I'm so mad."

There was a pause on the other end of the phone, and only Gu Qingshan's gentle voice came from the phone:

"Boys of this age are just having fun. In the past, your uncle Xue and I disappeared for several days. Your grandfather searched the whole city for us and scolded us when he came back... When Xiao Rui gets older, he will mature. Boys mature later."

Xue Rui shook himself and suddenly felt his back straighten up!

Gu Qingshan spoke for him?

This father and daughter are really arrogant. One moment they were discussing how to guard against him, and the next moment they reversed...

"Okay, I got it. Bye." Gu Muxue waved at the camera and pressed the red button to end the call.

Xue Rui applauded Gu Muxue with a smile on his face: "Muxue, it's a pity that you study finance. If you study acting, you will definitely be a future movie queen. Your ability to perform on the spot..."

Lin Ruoxi held a red strawberry in her mouth and followed Xue Rui to applaud Gu Muxue. She also thought that Gu Muxue was amazing. She didn't even need to draft a lie. She had to recite it silently in her mind for a long time before she lied to the teacher that she was going to the toilet...

Gu Muxue curled her lips. She always felt that Xue Rui was making fun of her, so she said with a gloomy face:

"Then why would I lie to my own father? Is that funny?"

Xue Rui swallowed his saliva with a gulp and suddenly felt unsure. The girl's aura was so strong now and she gave such a righteous reason.

Lin Ruoxi also lowered her head obediently, subconsciously wanting to apologize: "Yes..."

Suddenly, Gu Muxue burst into laughter.

"My dad does care too much." Gu Muxue said with a smile.

Even if one day she gave everything to Xue Rui, it would not be because she was deceived, but because she was willing to do so.

"Finance can also do great things." Xue Rui immediately changed his words. The girl's heart was still on his side.

And he was just joking. Given Gu Muxue's background, entering the entertainment industry would be a drop in her status.

"I checked the accounts and found that the man under you named Li Ruihao has dirty hands." Gu Muxue kicked Xue Rui and asked him to move to another seat for her.

"I know, but I need him now." Xue Rui nodded, thinking that Gu Muxue was still quite capable. Li Ruihao mostly issued false invoices for personal gain and did not consider himself an outsider at all.

But then again, that guy really treats the company as his own home and even wants to live in that shabby warehouse for eating, drinking, and defecating.

Compared with efficiency, this economic loss is nothing.

Xue Rui was even more curious about what Gu Muxue was thinking, so he asked, "Boss Gu, how do you want to deal with him?"

"Desires are insatiable. This is not enough. How can you reuse someone if he doesn't make mistakes? This is what my mother said."

After Gu Muxue finished speaking, she looked at Lin Ruoxi in a daze. She found that Lin Ruoxi had never eaten a whole strawberry.

Xue Rui couldn't help but take a breath of cold air. Gu Muxue wanted to leave Li Ruihao alone until he was unable to turn over, and then she could control him as she pleased...

Although he thought so, when these words came out of Gu Muxue's mouth, he suddenly felt worried about his second half of life. There were too many masters behind this little girl...

"Ruoxi, why are you always biting Strawberry's butt?" Gu Muxue said with a frown.

"Xue Rui likes to eat Jianjian."

Lin Ruoxi reached out and took another strawberry to feed Xue Rui, then nibbled the remaining flesh bit by bit.

"You can also try the tip of the strawberry." Gu Muxue raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and she picked up a strawberry and put it next to Lin Ruoxi's lips.

Lin Ruoxi was slightly stunned, and she looked at Xue Rui with a questioning look.

Only after Xue Rui nodded did Lin Ruoxi open her mouth and bite off the strawberry's butt in one bite.

Gu Muxue looked at the bare strawberry stalks in silence. Lin Ruoxi even ate some green leaves.

"Well, I guessed what you want to do. You want Xue Rui to eat strawberry butt." Lin Ruoxi muttered with puffy cheeks.

Lin Ruoxi knew that Gu Muxue always liked to go against Xue Rui, and she would not let Xue Rui suffer any injustice.

Xue Rui touched the back of Lin Ruoxi's head with satisfaction: "Xixi's brain is still useful."

Looking at Gu Muxue's slightly disappointed expression, Xue Rui exclaimed in his heart. He felt that Lin Ruoxi guessed wrong.

That strawberry butt... Gu Muxue seemed ready to eat it herself. (End of this chapter)
