Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

"The snow is so thick, tell Ruoxi to stop running around, it's not safe." Gu Muxue muttered softly.

She wanted Lin Ruoxi to come back a little later, but she didn't know how to say it.

"But Xixi is almost here." Xue Rui said, covering his phone.

He noticed that after saying this, Gu Muxue's eyes could not hide her disappointment.

The sick Gu Muxue is very clingy and wants to live alone with him today.

But what about the little girl?
He just said Christmas...

But the little girl never asked him for anything, so he couldn't pretend not to see it.

"Xixi, you said there are too many people over there and you can't get in line? Then don't buy anything and go home first."

Xue Rui hung up the phone after talking to himself and sent a message to Yu Minlan:

[Xiao Yu, I have a difficult task for you today...]

At this time, Lin Ruoxi was looking at her phone in confusion. Xue Rui asked her to buy fried chicken first. Before she asked Xue Rui what kind of fried chicken she wanted to eat, Xue Rui suddenly said such a inexplicable sentence, which made her feel very uneasy.

It seemed like Xue Rui was under some kind of "coercion" or was not able to speak?

She turned on the surveillance camera to check the situation at Gu Muxue's home.

The balcony was empty, there was no one at the door, and there were no surveillance cameras in the living room.

But Xue Rui told her to go back first...

……

Gu Muxue's home.

"I'll go buy some fried chicken when there are fewer people."

"Well, let's decorate the Christmas tree?" Gu Muxue suggested.

"The balcony is too cold, let's leave it there for now."

"Then watch TV?"

"also."

The two of them leaned on the sofa watching TV. Gu Muxue had a small blanket wrapped around her shoulders and snuggled in Xue Rui's arms, her eyes secretly glancing up from time to time.

"Who told you to press your chin on my head? You won't grow taller." Gu Muxue found an excuse and reached out to pinch Xue Rui's face.

"Too tall to be cute."

As Xue Rui spoke, he pushed Gu Muxue down again and touched the temperature of the little girl's forehead.

Gu Muxue felt secretly delighted. Xue Rui was praising her in disguise for being cuter than Lin Ruoxi.

The two chatted for a while before the living room door was opened.

Lin Ruoxi held the broom and looked around the room vigilantly.

Xue Rui and Gu Muxue turned their heads at the same time and looked at Lin Ruoxi with surprise at her strange behavior.

What made the two of them even more speechless was that Lin Ruoxi just made a gesture to step back, and Da Huang actually cooperated by standing outside the door, staring fiercely at the room and calling out twice vigilantly.

"Xixi, what are you doing?" Xue Rui's pupils trembled.

Damn, this is the first time I’ve seen such a fierce little girl. It’s like catching an adulterer.

"Ruoxi?" Gu Muxue's eyes were full of confusion.

When Lin Ruoxi saw the two people in the room, she immediately calmed down. She was just a little worried.

"I...I thought there was a bad guy in the house." Lin Ruoxi muttered softly.

In fact, when Lin Ruoxi saw Dahuang come out, she was sure that the house was safe, but to be on the safe side, she did not put down her "weapon" immediately.

"Mu Xue, go back to your room and rest for a while. Eat a bag of potato chips to fill your stomach."

Xue Rui picked up Gu Muxue and walked towards her room without saying a word.

"What are you going to do?" Gu Muxue asked in a low voice.

"You'll know soon." Xue Rui winked and threw Gu Muxue on the soft bed.

"Don't come out, I have a surprise for you."

Xue Rui closed the door and gave instructions to the room.

After that, he walked towards Lin Ruoxi with a helpless look in his eyes, stretched out his arms and gave the little girl a big hug, and heard Lin Ruoxi's soft voice:

"I…I thought you were in danger, so I came back early."

"Silly girl, if I'm in danger, can you and your dog protect me?"

"Well, I'm not stupid. I set my phone to automatically alarm in advance."

Lin Ruoxi said this and kissed Xue Rui on the face.

"Why doesn't Mu Xue come out?" Lin Ruoxi asked.

Xue Rui said in a very low voice: "She has a cold. I'm afraid she will infect you, so I locked her up first."

Lin Ruoxi said weakly: "I'm sorry... I'm such a bad mouth. Is she still having a fever?"

Xue Rui pinched his brows. Even though he had a bad memory, he still remembered that Lin Ruoxi said a few days ago that she was waiting for Gu Muxue to catch a cold so that she could return the favor...

Now the little girl really caught a cold.

"She's fine. Let's not talk about her anymore. Let's go fix the Christmas tree first." Xue Rui comforted her and pulled Lin Ruoxi to the Christmas tree.

"What a big pine tree." Lin Ruoxi tilted her head back and couldn't help but exclaimed.

"Luckily Mu Xue's house has a large terrace, otherwise there would be no place to put it."

Xue Rui nodded and walked to the corner to get the folding ladder.

When he stood up, he found that the window of Gu Muxue's room was open a crack, and behind the curtains, a pair of eyes were staring at him.

"Mu Xue, you can't blow the cold wind."

Xue Rui shamelessly closed Gu Muxue's floor-to-ceiling window tightly.

The master bedroom window is connected to the terrace. As long as Gu Muxue draws open the curtains, everything he and Lin Ruoxi are doing can be seen clearly.

"Hmph, I won't eavesdrop." Gu Muxue said angrily.

After closing the curtains, Gu Muxue clenched her fists and hit the teddy bear's head hard a few times. As if she was not satisfied, she grabbed the teddy bear's ear and bit it.

After venting her anger, she hugged the little bear tightly again and buried her face in its arms.

On the terrace.

"Mu Xue has a cold. Let's get her back to see her."

Lin Ruoxi said softly, she knew Xue Rui cared about Gu Muxue.

"Well, I can touch the top of the tree when I stand on the ladder. Don't come up. It's too dangerous." Lin Ruoxi said with a smile.

"You're tall enough to reach it." Xue Rui said subconsciously.

In fact, Xue Rui is still confused until now. Christmas is completely different from what he expected.

He envisioned Christmas as a family decorating the Christmas tree in harmony.

And what about reality?

Gu Muxue became clingy because of her cold and wanted to spend the holiday alone with him, but Lin Ruoxi still followed him foolishly.

But if his auspicious words were spoken separately, it would sound like "sowing discord".

Damn, plans can't keep up with changes.

Next, Xue Rui held the ladder from below and gave instructions to Lin Ruoxi, handing her some pendants from time to time.

Xue Rui was a little stunned. The little girl was holding a red string in her mouth, floating in the wind. She seemed to be dancing on the pine tree. With a flick of her slender fingers, a beautiful red ribbon appeared on the treetop...

As the last silver bell rang crisply in the treetops, Lin Ruoxi smiled with satisfaction.

"Xixi, why do I feel like this isn't your first time decorating the Christmas tree? You're much more skillful than me." Xue Rui praised.

I thought it would take half an hour, but the little girl finished it in just over ten minutes.

"Well, because I helped pick fruits in the village, and I'm used to climbing ladders." Lin Ruoxi explained casually, her eyes fixed on the Christmas tree.

She found herself seeming to enjoy this festival very much.

That’s not right. What I like is celebrating the festival with Xue Rui.

As Xue Rui pressed the power of the colorful lights, the colorful lights were reflected in their eyes, and the atmosphere of Christmas was in the air.

Lin Ruoxi's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, so beautiful."

"Not bad." Xue Rui touched Lin Ruoxi's head with satisfaction.

"Rui, I..." Lin Ruoxi turned around and covered Xue Rui's mouth without saying a word.

She didn't know why, but every time she was excited, she always wanted to kiss Xue Rui.

……

In Gu Muxue's room.

Gu Muxue caught a glimpse of the colorful lights coming in from the window, and couldn't help but open the curtains to take a peek.

"so beautiful."

Gu Muxue also exclaimed, but her tone quickly dropped because under that beautiful Christmas tree, there were two familiar figures kissing.

Although she couldn't see their expressions clearly, she could imagine the happiness they felt at that moment...

Just a piece of glass seems to separate two worlds.

Looking at the closed door, Gu Muxue raised her head and blinked.

If Xue Rui doesn't let her go out, then she won't go out.

It’s not that Gu Muxue is obedient, but she would never attend a dinner party without being invited.

Although it was her own home, Gu Muxue felt like a guest.

"Surprised? How can I be happy..." Gu Muxue stared at the curtains with a dull expression.

"Dong dong dong."

It wasn't until there was a knock on the door that Gu Muxue came to her senses.

She looked around and decided to cover her head with the quilt and pretend to sleep.

She didn't want to be discovered that she had been peeking at other people's happiness just now.

"Mu Xue, Xixi said the gas at home was not turned off properly, and she wants to go back to check. I'll take her there."

Xue Rui's voice came from outside the door.

After waiting for a while, Xue Rui could be heard mumbling to himself: "Are you asleep? That's fine..."

Gu Muxue bit her lips tightly, trying hard not to make any sound.

Until she heard the living room door closed, Gu Muxue pointed at the little bear's nose and cursed:

"Liar, big liar! Where's my fried chicken and pineapple beer?"

She really wanted to point at Xue Rui's nose and question him, but she didn't dare.

She had never been so scared before, afraid that Xue Rui would not come back.

Gu Muxue slowly opened the balcony door and walked to the dimly lit terrace, where a lonely Christmas tree stood.

The tree is still the same tree, but when you get closer, it’s not as beautiful as it was when you peeked from behind the curtains.

It's not the trees that are beautiful, it's the atmosphere.

In the cold wind, Gu Muxue dragged a chair to the edge of the terrace and sat down, staring at the snow scene downstairs in a daze.

"Xiao Rui, where have you been?" Gu Muxue said to herself.

Suddenly, two familiar figures flashed in her eyes. Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi did not go to the underground garage, but strolled hand in hand in the community.

……

"Rui, why are you in such a hurry to go back? The piano room over there hasn't been repaired yet."

Lin Ruoxi asked curiously, thinking about Christmas, she hadn't cooked for Xue Rui yet.

"You have to go back to your own house, otherwise Santa Claus will get lost and you won't get any presents."

Xue Rui explained with a serious face.

"Then...then I'd better go home and live." Lin Ruoxi smiled with curved eyes.

She didn't know what Xue Rui was going to play, but Xue Rui said that she could only get a gift if she went back to live there.

"Rui, do you like snowmen very much?"

Lin Ruoxi asked, she found that Xue Rui's eyes were always staring at the snowman.

"Well, I plan to steal one and put it on the terrace." Xue Rui said in a low voice.

"Stealing things... no, I'll make one for you." Lin Ruoxi said as she took off her gloves and started rolling a snowball on the side of the road.

Xue Rui chuckled, thinking that his goal had finally been achieved. It was too slow for him to build a snowman by himself, so he needed to find more people to help.

"Xixi, let's do this first, then this..."

"Good good!"

……

"I'm going to build a super big snowman, bigger than any other snowman here."

Xue Rui shouted to the elementary school students who were leaving school.

"Whoever helps me surpass him will get candy." Lin Ruoxi smiled sweetly at the little boy.

"Okay, sister, do you see the snowman over there? I made it!" The little boy began to show off his achievement.

Xue Rui grinned, thinking that he had finally taken the bait. Boys are born with a competitive spirit, especially in front of beautiful people of the opposite sex.

The little girl wanted to build a snowman, but she never had the chance and she caught a cold these two days.

He had to fulfill the little girl's wish and let her see the big snowman outside the bedroom when she woke up.

With the temptation of candy and Lin Ruoxi's allure as a beautiful older sister, it was easy to attract the little boy to help.

After all, he is a grown man holding candy, which may make children feel defensive.

So with the efforts of a group of children, two huge snowballs were quickly rolled.

However, when it came to the assembly phase, Xue Rui interrupted and said:

"Well, it's getting late, let's all go home and have dinner."

"Ah?" The boys could not hide their surprise.

Yu Minlan, who arrived late, took out two large bags of candy and distributed them to the children.

"Boss, you even lied to a child? Doesn't your conscience hurt?" Yu Minlan couldn't help but complain.

"What did I lie to them about? Didn't I give them the candy?" Xue Rui said righteously.

"This……"

"Xixi, after you and Xiaoyu finish your meal, go back and wait for the gift. I'll go deliver the meal to Mu Xue."

Xue Rui took the cart from Yu Minlan and moved the two round snowballs onto the cart.

This is why there is no need to assemble. All he needs are two snowballs, and he can simply put them together when he goes back to make a ready-made snowman.

"Well! Do you want to hang socks on the bedside?"

"Emmm, hang up." Xue Rui nodded.

Yu Minlan handed a handbag to Xue Rui and shook her head helplessly: "Sister Ruoxi, what do you want to eat?"

Today Xue Rui is going to spend the holiday with Gu Muxue.

As for Lin Ruoxi's Santa Claus? Of course she plays it!

……

"Where's the medicine?"

At this time, Gu Muxue no longer had the heart to watch anymore. She was rummaging through the drawers at home.

The house was eerily quiet, but from time to time she could hear the cheers of children downstairs, which made her feel uneasy.

She wanted to have a quiet sleep, so that she wouldn't have to think so much once she fell asleep.

However, the previous prescription medicine seemed to have been lost by Lin Ruoxi...

at the same time.

Yu Minlan sat in the car feeling restless. She looked at Lin Ruoxi sitting in the passenger seat, wanting to say something but stopping herself because she had a difficult task today.

Xue Rui asked her to give a gift to Lin Ruoxi, and she couldn't let Lin Ruoxi find out that she was not Xue Rui...

Lin Ruoxi is such a light sleeper, so this is almost an impossible task.

"Sister Yu, what did Xue Rui ask you to do? Just do it."

Lin Ruoxi felt that Yu Minlan was very irritable today, as if she was worried about something.

"Silly girl, he drugged you and you took it?"

Yu Minlan was so angry that she laughed, and she decided to tease Lin Ruoxi.

She took out a board of white pills and showed Lin Ruoxi a section of Xue Rui's chat history.

Yu Minlan: [Boss, you are asking too much. I have sleeping pills in the car. Why don’t you give Ruoxi one? ]

Xue Rui: [Eh? That’s a good idea. After all, she’s my girlfriend. Give her half a pill.]

"See? I was just asking him jokingly, but he really asked me to drug you." Yu Minlan joked.

Of course, Xue Rui was just joking, and she didn't show Lin Ruoxi the rest of the chat history.

Lin Ruoxi took the medicine, took out a pill and put it into her mouth without hesitation.

Yu Minlan panicked: "Hey? How come you don't understand what I'm saying, kid?"

"He let me eat it for my own good."

Lin Ruoxi smiled sweetly. She had just seen Xue Rui say that she was his “close” girlfriend.

And Xue Rui just wanted her to have a good sleep. As long as she didn't think too much and continued to be a silly girl, she could be happy every day. (End of this chapter)
