Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 402 The donor’s mother

"I'm sorry, Mu Xue. I'll stay at your place for a while when he comes back."

Lin Ruoxi felt that her little thoughts had been discovered, so she chose to apologize to Gu Muxue.

"Oh, whatever." Gu Muxue sighed helplessly.

Because Lin Ruoxi had always been by her side during her depressed time, she had complicated feelings towards Lin Ruoxi.

She knew that this was not right, and even though Xue Rui was very tolerant of this, she could not let herself go.

Xue Rui’s mistake cannot be an excuse for her to make mistakes.

So she chose to suppress this feeling, and because of this, she could accept Lin Ruoxi's intervention in her and Xue Rui's lives.

But Gu Muxue knew one thing very well: no one is willing to share the person they like, and Lin Ruoxi was forced.

For example, Lin Ruoxi cares a lot about whose house she lives in, and where Xue Rui sleeps at night...

Gu Muxue opened the car window a little, letting the cold December wind blow on her face.

This will sober her up a little.

Lin Ruoxi really wanted to remind Gu Muxue not to catch a cold, but she seemed to think that Gu Muxue was in a bad mood, so she didn't say anything and just retracted her neck into her collar.

Returning to the community where Gu Muxue lived, Gu Muxue planned to help Lin Ruoxi move things upstairs, but Yu Minlan got there first.

"Mr. Gu, please take the trouble to hold Dahuang, I will do it." Yu Minlan said attentively.

"Okay, I'll go up and open the door for you first." Gu Muxue walked into the elevator holding Xiaobu in her left hand and Dahuang in her right hand.

After Gu Muxue's back disappeared, Yu Minlan faced the busy Lin Ruoxi and said with a sad face: "Sister Ruoxi, I'm sorry for you."

"Ah? Sister Yu, what did you say?" Lin Ruoxi was confused.

"I just think that Mr. Gu is a very nice person." Yu Minlan felt even more guilty.

Lin Ruoxi said "Hey" and picked up the thick quilt:

"Yes, she helped me a lot."

"Oh, you don't understand." Yu Minlan shook her head.

In the past, she stood firmly on Lin Ruoxi's side, but now she began to waver!

This “good family” that Xue Rui found for her... is really great!
First, he helped her to save a large sum of cash, which allowed her to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars in rebates and commissions.

Later, she discovered that being Gu Muxue's full-time driver had too many benefits...

For example, gas is fully covered, and there is almost nothing for her to do except picking her up from school. She can go wherever she wants, and if she needs to take a leave, she only needs to inform her one day in advance.

The point is that she has gained a lot of knowledge. She never dared to go to those luxury stores before, but now she even looks down on Chanel?

Because Gu Muxue often received bags and jewelry from her elders. She could obviously resell the ones she didn’t like, but Gu Muxue chose to give them to her, the kind that came with an invoice.

She had never thought in her life that one day she would be able to carry a Hermès bag.

Being able to afford something and being willing to buy it are two different things, and it’s really hard to refuse a good deal for free.

And every time she ran errands for Gu Muxue, Gu Muxue would buy her an extra portion as a work meal.

Recently, Gu Muxue helped Lin Ruoxi maintain her interpersonal relationships and invited many university professors out for dinner. She also ate at all the high-end restaurants in Chang'an...

It was even hard for her to imagine how much her quality of life would decline if she was separated from Gu Muxue, her "financial sponsor"...

Now her circle of friends is full of high-end restaurants, luxury cars and luxury goods, and a meal for her can cost nearly half a month's salary for her classmates.

Yu Minlan gradually lost herself amid the envious eyes of her friends and classmates.

What's more terrifying is that she knows that all this is just like a bubble, but it's hard to give up this feeling...

It is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality, she truly understands this sentence.

In the end, she couldn't resist Gu Muxue's sugar-coated bullets.

If Xue Rui had to face a situation where she had to choose between the two, she would most likely support Gu Muxue, because if Xue Rui chose Lin Ruoxi, Gu Muxue would fire her without hesitation, and her good days would be over.

Yu Minlan picked up a bag of radishes covered in dirt and admired Lin Ruoxi very much.

Everything she has now came from the fingers of the rich, and Lin Ruoxi has truly completed a class transition.

But Lin Ruoxi's life is no different from that of an ordinary housewife. She still buys vegetables from the elderly on the roadside to save a few dollars.

The only difference is that I never bargain when buying groceries.

It feels like an emperor swinging a golden hoe...

"Sister Ruoxi, don't buy vegetables from the stalls. These vegetables look bad, have a lot of mud on them, and some are even underweight..."

Yu Minlan tried to persuade her kindly. She used to think that the vegetables sold by the elderly on the roadside were not sprayed with pesticides and were pure natural and pollution-free. After being cheated a few times, she learned her lesson. The vegetables sold at roadside stalls are more expensive than those in supermarkets, and some of them are even mixed with bad ones.

Later she found out that the people setting up stalls on the roadside were not necessarily elderly people from rural areas. They could also be elderly people from urban areas who bought goods wholesale from the market and pretended to be elderly people from rural areas to be middlemen. The trick was too complicated, so she decided to go to the supermarket.

"Well, you can eat it anyway." Lin Ruoxi said softly.

"Won't Mr. Xue say anything about you?" Yu Minlan asked back. Xue Rui is such a smart man, he would definitely say something about Lin Ruoxi.

Because when she bought the Land Rover she was driving, Xue Rui even asked her to ask the salesperson for a rebate, and she couldn't afford to lose anything.

Sometimes she worried whether Xue Rui would ask her for rebates from depositors.
After all, there is such an unspoken rule, so even if there are hundreds of thousands of cash lying in her bank account, she dare not spend it...

"Rui supports me." Lin Ruoxi turned her head and said seriously: "The cracks on their hands won't lie. No one will buy their vegetables. How will they survive this winter?"

Yu Minlan swallowed hard. She really hadn't expected this.

If Xue Rui were here, he would probably scold her for being "small-minded". No wonder, maybe what Xue Rui liked was not Lin Ruoxi's beautiful appearance, but her kind and simple heart.

"Well, I think I bought too much, and there are not enough people at home to eat it all. Sister Yu, do you want some carrots?" Lin Ruoxi asked.

Facing Lin Ruoxi's innocent eyes, Yu Minlan really couldn't think of a reason to refuse.

"of course yes."

In Yu Minlan's heart, the images of Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi suddenly became taller.

One Hermès could buy a truckload of carrots, but she began to waver inside.

With this feeling of separation, she suddenly understood why Xue Rui was so obsessed with "having it all".

If it were her, she would make the same choice.

Walking into Gu Muxue's mansion again, Lin Ruoxi put down her things and started cleaning the house. Yu Minlan looked at the time and reminded:

"Mr. Gu, you have a physical education class at 3:30 this afternoon. It's almost time now. Do you want to go over? I'll drop you off and come back to clean up with Sister Ruoxi."

Gu Muxue looked at the busy Lin Ruoxi. She couldn't bring herself to say that she wanted to leave: "You go. I won't attend today's class."

"That won't work. I'll help too."

Yu Minlan rolled up her sleeves and started to work. Her salary was too high, and she would feel uneasy if she didn't do more work.

The three of them had a meal until it was getting dark, and Yu Minlan left, leaving Lin Ruoxi and Gu Muxue sitting on the sofa watching TV.

It is the heating season in the north now. The heating systems in high-end residential areas are better, and the houses are quite hot.

Gu Muxue was wearing a short-sleeved shirt and a facial mask. She placed a cup of tea in front of Lin Ruoxi and said with a tight mouth, "Why are you sitting with me today?"

When they were at Lin Ruoxi's house, the two of them were basically separated except for cooking and eating together. Lin Ruoxi would give her the time after dinner, and would often take Xue Rui back when it was time to go to bed at night.

Although it was not an established rule, both of them accepted it silently.

"Um, thank you... I don't know who he's going to call. I'll wait with you for a while."

Lin Ruoxi had half of her face buried in her turtleneck sweater, and her voice was muffled.

Gu Muxue smiled silently in her heart, this reason was very consistent with Lin Ruoxi's character.

"It's a bit hot here and my face will be dry. Do you want a facial mask? I bought too much and I can't use them all." Gu Muxue asked.

If she bought too much, it would be fake. Mainly, she was afraid that Lin Ruoxi would not accept it. Lin Ruoxi always treated her as an outsider.

After moving today, she thought that Lin Ruoxi would put something under her bed, and she was also curious about what Lin Ruoxi would hide under the bed.

As a result, she found an account book under Lin Ruoxi's bed, which recorded a sum of 10,000 yuan for her. The source of the funds was clearly written: a red envelope given by Gu Muxue's mother.

"Well, okay." Lin Ruoxi's voice was muffled, her eyelids couldn't stop fighting. She subconsciously pulled up her turtleneck sweater, thinking to herself that she couldn't sleep because Xue Rui hadn't called yet.

Gu Muxue threw the facial mask into the trash can. She felt that Lin Ruoxi was so weird today. She was so hot that she wanted to wear short sleeves, but Lin Ruoxi buried her face in her sweater.

But she didn't think too much about it. After washing her face, she tore off a facial mask and prepared to put one on Lin Ruoxi as well.

However, when she turned around to wash her face, Lin Ruoxi fell asleep on the sofa.

"Ruoxi?" Gu Muxue glanced at the clock on the wall. It was only seven o'clock in the evening.

Lin Ruoxi is a night owl and goes to bed very late every day. Her behavior today was very abnormal.

Gu Muxue lowered her body, stretched out the back of her hand and gently touched Lin Ruoxi's head, her pupils suddenly contracted: "It's so hot!"

For a moment, she thought of Lin Ruoxi who had been sneezing in the afternoon. She thought it was caused by the dust in the room. Now she thought that Lin Ruoxi had a cold at that time.

But what is the reason?

She also remembered that in the afternoon, she was sitting in the passenger seat blowing cold air, and Lin Ruoxi was also blowing cold air while sweating while moving.

"Blame me..." Gu Muxue felt very guilty.

"Ruoxi, Ruoxi wake up..." Gu Muxue pushed Lin Ruoxi hard, looking extremely panicked.

"Ok?"

However, Lin Ruoxi just responded in a daze, then buried her head in the crack of the sofa and went to sleep.

Just when Gu Muxue didn't know what to do, a picture suddenly flashed through her mind. Xue Rui was holding Lin Ruoxi and sitting at the door of the high school clinic, asking her to call 120 for emergency assistance...

She successfully dialed the 120 number, and after anxiously explaining to the person on the other end, the other party asked her to give Lin Ruoxi antipyretic medicine, or go to the hospital herself.

Gu Muxue's eyes were blank, she didn't expect to get such a response. Now that Xue Rui was not around, how could she move Lin Ruoxi?
Yu Minlan's residence is far from here and it will take some time to get here.

Gu Muxue turned Lin Ruoxi over and used a wet towel to cool down Lin Ruoxi's head. She made a cup of antipyretic medicine and took a sip to test the temperature.

"Ruoxi, you have a cold, get up and take medicine."

"Well……"

But Lin Ruoxi is not conscious now. No matter what she says, Lin Ruoxi just agrees but does not take any action. How can she get Lin Ruoxi to get up and take the medicine obediently?

Gu Muxue thought for a long time. She called Lin Ruoxi with her own mobile phone. She raised the ringing mobile phone to Lin Ruoxi's ear:

"Ruoxi, Xiaorui called."

Lin Ruoxi suddenly opened her eyes, half-supported herself and tried to get up, the words from her mouth were clearly audible:

"I...I need to answer the phone." (End of this chapter)
