Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

The moment the lights went out, Xue Rui opened the quilt a little.

With the help of the colorful lights of the Christmas tree outside the window, Xue Rui's pair of happy feet danced around the room.

Judging from the vibration coming from the quilt, Gu Muxue seemed to have thrown something on the quilt.

While Gu Muxue and Snowman were whispering, Xue Rui reached out and touched the quilt.

It’s a palm-sized box with red and blue colors vaguely visible, and the style is very Christmasy.

But what kind of gift can be put in such a small box?
Xue Rui took a closer look. He didn't recognize the Japanese characters, but he recognized the Arabic numerals - [001].

Today’s gift is Gu Muxue.

He and Gu Muxue have been living together for several months. Every time he wanted to take the next step, Gu Muxue was always too nervous and the relationship ended in nothing.

But Lin Ruoxi's departure today seemed to have made Gu Muxue let down all her guard.

While Gu Muxue was threatening the "snowman", Xue Rui put the box back to its original place, covered his head with the quilt again, and pretended nothing had happened.

With the crickets pupating in the quilt, a set of men's pajamas slipped out from the quilt...

When Xue Rui threw the pajamas out, he saw through the gap a pair of smooth calves with their backs facing away from him, with pajamas piled up at their feet.

Xue Rui's heart was pounding. At this moment, he was like an innocent little boy, facing unknown and beautiful things, with a little nervousness in his anticipation.

He sighed secretly in his heart, Gu Muxue has always been a hurdle that he could not overcome. After today, the two of them will definitely take a step further and enter the "honeymoon period" of a young couple.

He had been looking forward to this day for a long time, but at the same time he was also worried that the little girl would be jealous...

Suddenly, the quilt opened a crack, and Xue Rui's mouth also opened a crack. He reached out and took the little girl into his arms, and whispered:
"Mu Xue, don't catch a cold."

Gu Muxue and Xue Rui were lying side by side facing each other. She reached out and pinched Xue Rui's face:
"Xiao Rui, have you been waiting for this day?"

While she was taking off her clothes, she kept thinking about what words to use to get Xue Rui to take off his pajamas as well, but now it seems that there is no need at all!

"Mu Xue, I'm warming the bed for you."

Xue Rui shamelessly brought up Lin Ruoxi's words while groping around Gu Muxue's back with his hands.

"You can't open it? Do you want me to teach you how to open a gift?" Gu Muxue said with a smile.

"The horse stumbles, Mu Xue, wait a moment."

“This is how you unwrap a gift…”

Gu Muxue held Xue Rui's hand and slowly opened the "gift". The moment the buttons came unbuttoned, she hugged the person in her arms tightly.

Gu Muxue changed her bra to a front-hook one because she didn't want Xue Rui to treat her the same way he treated Lin Ruoxi.

"Xiao Rui, you... who of you took the initiative?" Gu Muxue asked stutteringly.

She was not the first girl Xue Rui had, Lin Ruoxi was.

But today is very important to her. Will Xue Rui be thinking about Lin Ruoxi?

She didn't know, and didn't want to know, but she wanted Xue Rui to remember her, at least to distinguish her from Lin Ruoxi.

"I took the initiative."

Xue Rui felt that the process was not important since he was at the top anyway.

Gu Muxue took a deep breath and exhaled slowly: "Xiao Rui, you said on the phone last time that you wanted to hear what I said in person?"

"Which call?" Xue Rui thought that if he couldn't answer it, his night might be ruined.

Just as he was searching through his mind at a high speed, he was suddenly pushed down by Gu Muxue. A familiar square packaging bag appeared in his hand. A warm current slapped his earlobe, and Gu Muxue's softest whisper reached his ears:

"I love you, and I want to take everything from you."

……

For a long time afterwards, Xue Rui's mind was in a daze.

He felt a stinging pain in his shoulders and chest from time to time, sometimes from a scratch, sometimes from a bite.

Every time he felt a sting, his heart tightened.

No girl wants her first time to be like this. Gu Muxue's intention was too obvious.

He was the one who felt sorry for Gu Muxue.

Xue Rui always wondered what expression Gu Muxue had at this moment?
Xue Rui's mind went blank for a moment until Gu Muxue lazily collapsed in his arms.

He gave up thinking.

……

"Mu Xue, are you asleep?" Xue Rui asked in a low voice.

After a brief silence, a weak humming sound came from the chest, the voice was very tired, with a hint of complacency.

"Xiao Ruizi, turn on the bedside lamp." Gu Muxue patted Xue Rui's shoulder and said.

She was aching all over now, but she still couldn't bear to go to sleep. The days of being alone with Xue Rui were rare, and she cherished every minute and every second.

"Okay." Xue Rui responded with a smile and turned on the desk lamp beside him.

Soft light sprinkled in the room. Xue Rui squinted his eyes for a few seconds to adjust, then tried to open his eyes to see clearly the person in front of him.

The vision slowly regained focus, and Gu Muxue's face became clearly visible.

The little girl's eyes were moist, with sparkling drops of water hanging on her long eyelashes, and two tears rolling down her cheeks.

Xue Rui hugged Gu Muxue tightly with heartache, thinking that the little girl was crying in pain.

"I'm sorry, Xiao Rui, I didn't mean to hurt you..." Gu Muxue's eyes were full of heartache.

At this moment, Xue Rui's shoulders and neck were covered with scratches, all red.

"Hurt me?" Xue Rui was amused.

Normally in this situation, shouldn't the girl be the one asking the boy to take responsibility?
Apologizing for a few scratches?

Gu Muxue and Xue Rui looked at each other, she propped herself up and pointed weakly at Xue Rui's shoulder.

Xue Rui saw the scratches on his shoulders and chest and couldn't help laughing:

"I have thick skin and I don't feel it. Do you want to rest early?"

Gu Muxue pouted. She would never tell Xue Rui that she was in so much pain: "Humph, I... I don't feel anything either. I won't rest."

Xue Rui took a deep breath. The girl's stubbornness was really discouraging.

He smiled contemptuously and started looking for the packaging bag next to his pillow:
"It's not good to not rest. I remember a box of condoms comes with three, and there are two left. Look, I've already opened them..."

Gu Muxue looked at Xue Rui aggrievedly. She didn't even have the strength to turn over, but Xue Rui didn't seem to intend to let her go and insisted that she bow her head and submit.

Gu Muxue remained silent until she saw Xue Rui about to tear open the bag again. She held Xue Rui's hand and said, "Master Xue... please forgive me..."

"hey-hey."

Xue Rui smiled contentedly. It was rare to see such a well-behaved Gu Muxue.

It just sounds weird, like Ximen Qing.

"Go to bed early." Xue Rui said.

"I'm not sleepy yet. You have to chat with me until I fall asleep." Gu Muxue pressed the quilt tightly and hugged Xue Rui with all her strength.

She didn't want Xue Rui to get his phone, and she didn't want to know what time it was. She was afraid that time would pass too quickly.

Xue Rui held the packaging bag of 001 with a puzzled look on his face. This style was too classic and he had always wanted to buy it, but it seemed that it had not been launched in the domestic market yet and he could not buy it at all.

"Mu Xue, where did you buy this?" Xue Rui asked.

Gu Muxue gently bumped Xue Rui with her head: "My mother gave it to me."

"My mother-in-law is so considerate. She chose the best." Xue Rui couldn't help but speak out his true feelings.

In fact, in the final analysis, it is to protect Gu Muxue, fearing that young people will pursue excitement...

"What did you say?"

Gu Muxue bumped Xue Rui's head hard to hide her shyness.

The last time she went home with her suitcase, when she opened it in Chang'an, there were several boxes of condoms inside...

She looked at the package that said 001 and couldn't help but think that she was the second one.

But it's strange to say, in just the time it took to turn off the lights and then on again, the relationship between her and Xue Rui changed dramatically.

She no longer paid attention to Xue Rui's little movements, but just hugged each other and chatted calmly.

It seems... like an old married couple.

"Mu Xue, I think you just want my body." Xue Rui said shamelessly.

"Xiao Rui, you are the thief crying "Stop thief". Gu Muxue was so angry that she pinched Xue Rui on the waist.

"Who took the initiative?" Xue Rui was tough for once and shouted with full of energy.

Gu Muxue raised her hand: "It's me."

"Look, it matches."

Xue Rui pinched Gu Muxue's nose and rubbed it. Gu Muxue was so cute now. He bit the little girl on the face.

Gu Muxue puffed up her cheeks and flicked Xue Rui's mouth away, "I was drunk on pineapple beer just now, so it doesn't count."

"So just now, when you said you wanted to take away everything from me, were you also talking drunkenly?"

Xue Rui asked casually.

"I..." Gu Muxue paused for a moment and said playfully, "Guess?"

Xue Rui's heart skipped a beat, thinking that this was the end, he was at the hands of the little girl.

From now on, the family order becomes clear:

Gu Muxue>Xue Rui>Lin Ruoxi>Da Huang=Xiao Bu...

"Lie down." Gu Muxue pressed Xue Rui's head down hard.

She lowered her head and kissed Xue Rui's hair, her eyes full of love: "Merry Christmas, I have never been so happy today, I can fulfill one of your small requests."

"I'll save it and talk about it later."

"Only for today, it will be invalid after this time."

Gu Muxue said with a smile that she would not dig a hole for herself, because who knows what requests Xue Rui will make in the future.

Xue Rui thought about it and realized that Gu Muxue didn't even have the strength to get out of bed at that moment, so the scope of the requests he could make was very limited.

"Then sing me a song."

"Today is Christmas. Do you want to listen to the Chinese or English version of the Christmas song?"

“A medley of eight languages.”

Xue Rui leaned on Gu Muxue's shoulder and felt that the current posture was too weird, as if he was the one who was at a disadvantage.

Gu Muxue rolled her eyes at Xue Rui, then parted her red lips and sang in a clear and melodious voice like a silver bell, echoing in the room:
"Ding-ding-dong, ジングルベル, jingle all the way, #%#@..."

As Gu Muxue sang, she couldn't help but burst into giggles.

"It sounds nice, but is it right?" Xue Rui kept tickling Gu Muxue.

"Xiao Rui, I told you to read more and stop tickling me..."

……

At the same time, at Lin Ruoxi's home.

Lin Ruoxi stood straight by the window, occasionally looking down at the scenery outside the window, and then looking down at her mobile phone.

"Sister Ruoxi, if you are sleepy, just go to sleep." Yu Minlan advised softly.

Lin Ruoxi shook her head: "No, I want to wait for Rui to come."

"alright."

Yu Minlan wanted to slap herself, because of her carelessness, Lin Ruoxi tricked her into revealing the fact that "Xue Rui sent a gift". Lin Ruoxi mistakenly believed that Xue Rui would come over tonight, so she went out and bought a lot of food, and insisted on waiting until Xue Rui came to celebrate the holiday with her.

Poor Lin Ruoxi, she took sleeping pills but forced herself not to sleep. She had been standing for four or five hours to stay awake, and now her body was starting to shake.

But what is that bastard Xue Rui doing?
If a man and a woman were alone in the same room, she could guess it with her butt.

Yu Minlan kept pinching her brows. If Lin Ruoxi didn't sleep, her mission would not be completed. She also had to stay here to prevent Lin Ruoxi from falling...

"Sister Ruoxi, why can you do this for Xue Rui? Did he save your life? Didn't he just give you some money? In fact, it's nothing to his family. You should remember the kindness, but you don't have to repay it like this, right?"

"What you did is far beyond the scope of a normal couple. Whatever Xue Rui says is right, and you accept whatever he asks? You also admit to having two girlfriends at the same time? Are you stupid?"

Lin Ruoxi's stubbornness, coupled with the pressure from Xue Rui, made Yu Minlan curse out all the thoughts hidden in her heart.

Lin Ruoxi regained some energy when she heard the word "Xue Rui". She gave Yu Minlan a tired smile:

"Sister Yu, I'm different. Others studied hard for more than ten years, but I was in a daze in school for more than ten years. I just flipped through the books and became the top scorer in the college entrance examination."

"I'm sorry, I apologize for my stupidity."

Yu Minlan looked extremely unhappy. Lin Ruoxi and Xue Rui had learned bad things from them and their words hurt people's hearts.

"But... being too smart is not a good thing. My classmates excluded me, said bad things about me behind my back, and threw my stationery. The teacher said I was not sociable. I was beaten by my father when I got home. My grandmother said that our family was poor and she didn't want me to be in the limelight..."

"It became even more troublesome when I entered junior high school. I didn't wear makeup, but the teacher insisted that I did. Love letters kept appearing in my drawers for no apparent reason, and my quilt in the dormitory was always splashed with water. I think these two things must be related..."

Lin Ruoxi's tone was calm, as if she was telling someone else's story.

"Sometimes I wonder if everything would be different if I had parents who loved me. If the house wasn't so shabby, would my classmates come to visit me? If no one came to collect debts during the Chinese New Year..."

Yu Minlan covered her chest with her hands. Lin Ruoxi was stabbing her heart with a knife. She couldn't bear it any longer and brought Lin Ruoxi a glass of water.
"Sister Ruoxi, are you going too far off topic?"

"Well, thank you." Lin Ruoxi took a sip of water and continued:
"I met Xue Rui. He broke into my house and took me away. He gave me food and a house to live in. I think he wanted me because I'm pretty. After all, there's no such thing as a free lunch. I don't like owing people things. I always think about how to pay them back."

"Sister Ruoxi, your guess is absolutely right!" Yu Minlan nodded repeatedly.

As expected of a top student, he is wise but appears foolish...

But since they were on guard, how did Lin Ruoxi get into Xue Rui's pocket?
"I prepared for the worst, but Xue Rui only cared about the problems in my life and didn't cross the line. Instead, I was the weird one. I always wanted to get closer to him when he was asleep..." Lin Ruoxi touched her face and smiled foolishly.

Yu Minlan was speechless. Xue Rui's trick was too sophisticated. This trick was called "playing hard to get"!
Once curiosity arises, it is dangerous.

"Xue Rui encouraged me to be the best. He put more money into my card than I could spend in my lifetime. He told me to dress up nicely and hold my head high. He always quarreled with grandma and said that what grandma said was not good for me..."

"I became the top scholar, and no one came to collect debts during the New Year..."

"Looking back, all the things I had imagined have happened, but I feel even more lost. I don't like money and fame. I like Xue Rui to be proud of my achievements. I look forward to him coming over for dinner during the Chinese New Year..."

Yu Minlan's eyes were dull. Xue Rui's psychological tactics were simply unstoppable. She felt that she couldn't withstand it even if she were in his place.

"My grandma told me when I was a child that I didn't love anyone and was an ungrateful person." Lin Ruoxi took a deep breath.

"That's too much!" Yu Minlan gritted her teeth. The attacks from relatives were a hundred times more vicious than those from outsiders.

Lin Ruoxi shook her head slightly: "Grandma is right, that Lin Ruoxi doesn't love anyone, not even herself."

"When Mu Xue was ill, I taught myself a lot of psychology books. I deduced that Lin Ruoxi had a serious case of emptiness and nihilism, and the end was bound to be self-destruction."

But now she is different. She loves Xue Rui, and is secretly happy because she is beautiful. She is glad that she is smart and can help Xue Rui...

I would be proud of Xue Rui's achievements, but I would also be worried about Xue Rui's illness.

In short, every day brings new expectations.

"Huh? What does that mean?"

Yu Minlan had a puzzled look on her face, wondering why Lin Ruoxi suddenly appeared in the conversation.

Lin Ruoxi said seriously: "Well, in layman's terms, if I hadn't met Xue Rui, the probability of committing suicide in the future would be 100%. You said that Xue Rui was my savior, and you were right."

Yu Minlan was so angry that she was shaking. Did you give such a long monologue just to gild Xue Rui's reputation?

So fucking infuriating!

"Sister Ruoxi, you are not being rigorous. How can you deduce 100% of something that didn't happen?"

Yu Minlan pointed out the loophole.

"Sister Yu, when it comes to individual fate, there are only 0 and 1. The Lin Ruoxi in the past was me, and I can be sure of what she would do."

Yu Minlan frowned, and Lin Ruoxi seemed to be discussing philosophical issues with her?

She moved her lips and said helplessly: "I have not read enough, I can't argue with you."

"So, Lin Ruoxi owes Xue Rui a life, and I have to repay it with my whole life."

Yu Minlan turned around to get some water, muttering as she walked: "I don't understand. He's not happy even though he's ranked first in the country. If I were in the top 100, I'd be so proud. The gap between people is bigger than that between me and Da Huang..."

Lin Ruoxi listened to Yu Minlan's nagging and suddenly remembered the exams that made her happiest, all of which were in high school.

In the past, she always gave in to Gu Muxue. When she got first place in the grade for the first time, Xue Rui showed a gratified smile in front of the corridor ranking table.

At that time, she was watching not far away, feeling very happy...

Normally, no matter if he lowered his score to give it to Gu Muxue, or lowered his score to find a random place to study, as long as he was by Xue Rui's side, it would be fine.

But there will be an exam in the future, and the person setting the questions is Xue Rui.

When Lin Ruoxi thought of this, her body couldn't stop shaking.

"Ruoxi, stop carrying it and go to sleep first." (End of this chapter)
