Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Xue Rui stood in front of Lin Ruoxi's bed, holding back his laughter. In front of him, there was a furry thing twisting in the quilt.

At this time, Lin Ruoxi was wearing headphones and wrapped herself tightly in a quilt. The time was counting down on the screen of her mobile phone. She wanted to see the time go to 2015 and she didn't realize that Xue Rui was standing behind her.

A muffled soliloquy came from under the quilt:

"Pointer variables are used to store memory addresses. Do you understand, Mr. Xue?"

"Well, am I oversimplifying this?"

"Well... Xue doesn't like studying anyway, so it doesn't matter."

Xue Rui was speechless. The little girl was actually muttering and exposing his true colors.

"Ten, nine, eight, seven..."

Lin Ruoxi’s countdown became more and more lost.

Xue Rui waited until Lin Ruoxi counted to "5", then lifted the quilt and crawled in.

"Ah!" Lin Ruoxi was startled, but the moment she saw Xue Rui, surprise turned into joy and she hugged the person in front of her tightly.

Xue Rui's gentle countdown came to my ears: "Three, two, one."

"Xixi, Happy New Year, it's 2015 now."

Lin Ruoxi's voice became unusually playful: "So, does that count as us hugging each other for a whole year?"

Xue Rui rubbed Lin Ruoxi's head with a smile in his eyes. So this is what the little girl was expecting?

Xue Rui corrected him: "Xixi, you are not as good as me in math. From 2014 to 2015, that counts as two years."

"Yes! Two years." Lin Ruoxi nodded heavily, clasping her hands tightly together.

Xue Rui came to her at the important moment of New Year's Eve, and she was very happy.

But she was reluctant to let Xue Rui go.

Lin Ruoxi looked at Xue Rui lovingly and reached out to touch Xue Rui's face: "You've grown another year older."

Xue Rui nodded and smiled. Lin Ruoxi was like this sometimes. The way she looked at him was like an old mother looking at her silly son.

Xue Rui looked at his watch. Seven or eight minutes had passed. Although he and Lin Ruoxi didn't talk much when they were together, time always passed quickly.

Now, Gu Muxue’s “standing in punishment” period has exceeded.

Xue Rui thought he couldn't stay there any longer. Although the girl was generous, he couldn't push her too far.

Lin Ruoxi noticed that Xue Rui was acting strangely, and her heart suddenly felt empty. She hugged Xue Rui's face and kissed him softly.

Xue Rui felt Lin Ruoxi's kiss becoming more and more passionate, and his eyes gradually became blurred...

He smiled bitterly in his heart, Lin Ruoxi started to play tricks again.

"Xixi, I sneaked out while Mu Xue was in the bathroom. I have to go back now."

Xue Rui took credit for Gu Muxue's "merit" almost without hesitation.

"Well, then you should go back quickly and don't get discovered."

Lin Ruoxi reluctantly let go of her arms, her rosy lower lip gradually tightened, as if she would cry at any time.

Xue Rui touched Lin Ruoxi's head a few times until the corners of Lin Ruoxi's mouth gradually relaxed. He got up and left, closing the door.

Lin Ruoxi hugged tightly the pillow that Xue Rui had slept on, smiling like a flower, feeling secretly delighted in her heart.

Outside the room, Xue Rui took a deep breath to adjust himself. Lin Ruoxi's love was so passionate that he couldn't breathe.

Seeing that the light in Gu Muxue's room was still on, Xue Rui smiled slightly and set the time on his phone and watch back ten minutes.

At this time, Gu Muxue was lying on the bed, staring blankly at the ceiling, every minute and every second was extremely tormented.

She always couldn't help but wonder, what were Xue Rui and Lin Ruoxi doing?

In fact, Gu Muxue knew that she would regret it, but Lin Ruoxi's simple personality would always put some pressure on everyone's heart, but she didn't want Xue Rui to have too much pressure, so she left the New Year's Eve opportunity to Lin Ruoxi.

But it’s so long and hard…

Gu Muxue didn't dare to kill time with her mobile phone. She was afraid of seeing the unfamiliar year of 2015, and even more afraid of seeing her classmates and friends sharing their happy moments.

Suddenly, the door was flung open. Gu Muxue's eyes lit up with joy, but soon turned into panic.

Gu Muxue lifted the quilt, covered her head tightly with it, and carefully wiped away her tears with the quilt cover.

She didn't want Xue Rui to see her crying, as it would make her look so worthless.

"Mu Xue, Mu Xue, look quickly."

Xue Rui hurriedly pulled at the quilt, and inside was Gu Muxue, who was curled up in a ball.

"No need to look!" Gu Muxue said in a muffled voice.

"The time on your phone is not accurate. It's not even twelve o'clock yet."

Xue Rui stuffed his cell phone into the quilt.

After waiting for a few seconds, Gu Muxue timidly poked her head out, her expression a little confused and full of disbelief. Her neat and beautiful eyelashes were stuck together by tears, making her look pitiful.

Xue Rui felt heartbroken for a moment, and decided to continue according to the "original plan" and give Gu Muxue a New Year's Eve.

"I just looked at Xixi's watch, and it wasn't even twelve o'clock yet, so I hurried back."

Xue Rui put his watch in front of Gu Muxue and said, "Look, the watch you gave me this year also has this time."

This trick is called psychological suggestion. As long as there is enough information provided around, the brain will believe it even if the mind knows it is "fake".

Health care product advertisements like the ones on local TV that claim to "cure all diseases" play by the rules. They don't mention curing any disease at all, but give people a lot of examples of recovery. After seeing them too many times, some elderly people will believe them without a doubt.

"There are still ten seconds left. What should we do for New Year's Eve? Muxue, think about it quickly." Xue Rui kept urging, not giving Gu Muxue any time to think.

"I…"

Gu Muxue was misled by Xue Rui's words and couldn't help but start thinking, what should she do at the moment of New Year's Eve?

Gu Muxue's heart was beating wildly. She hadn't thought about the "New Year's Eve ceremony" at all, because in her plan, that moment was for Lin Ruoxi.

"Five, four, three..."

Listening to Xue Rui's countdown, Gu Muxue no longer hesitated. She pushed Xue Rui down on the bed and kissed him hard.

The moment the kiss happened, Gu Muxue's mind went blank and she felt much calmer.

Maybe this was not what she wanted, but she did not miss this beautiful moment after all.

Until she noticed that Xue Rui's lips seemed to move, and it seemed like he was laughing?

Gu Muxue snorted in her heart, and she decided to give Xue Rui some "punishment".

"Mu Xue, let go..." Xue Rui begged for mercy incoherently.

Xue Rui was overjoyed, as the New Year's Eve incident was finally over.

Moreover, both girls he loved were very happy.

Gu Muxue pressed on Xue Rui's chest and grabbed Xue Rui's face: "Xiao Rui, am I that stupid?"

The moment Xue Rui smiled, she realized she had been cheated.

Xue Rui held Gu Muxue in his arms, tapped the watch case and said, "Muxue, you just kissed me for two years."

"You're telling lies. How can anyone mess up the time on their phone and watch?"

Gu Muxue cursed coldly, but snuggled into Xue Rui's arms. Looking at the January 1st on the dial, her heart was filled with joy.

In order to make her happy, Xue Rui directed and acted in a big drama.

So what if she knew it was fake?

At least now she is really happy.

"I adjust the time on my phone according to my watch. If it's messed up, everything will be messed up too." Xue Rui said seriously.

Gu Muxue laughed so hard that her body shook. "Xiao Rui, what are you thinking? Who can adjust the time on a mobile phone by following a watch?"

"Because this watch was given to me by you, I trust your time more." Xue Rui said as he gave Gu Muxue a light kiss on her hair.

Gu Muxue's body froze when she heard this. She held her heart tightly with her small hands. Her head was dizzy at the moment, and it felt like something was about to burst out of her chest. Her breathing became rapid. She couldn't tell what she felt at the moment.

Touched, happy, satisfied...

Countless emotions impacted Gu Muxue's nerves, causing her to lose the ability to think...

She turned around and hugged Xue Rui tightly, her two slender arms groping around Xue Rui's body, as if only in this way could she vent her pent-up emotions.

Xue Rui's mouth curled up, today's strategy was very successful.

"Mu Xue, why are you hugging me suddenly?" Xue Rui asked in surprise.

Usually he always sticks to Gu Muxue, but today it’s a rare occasion that Gu Muxue releases the emotions that have been suppressed in her heart, so he has to be "arrogant" for once.

Who isn't a little arrogant?
"Xiao Rui, please...please."

Hearing the sound of hot breathing beside his ears, Xue Rui responded subconsciously: "Okay."

It's not fair!

Why is it so easy for Gu Muxue to sleep with him?

There's nothing I can do, maybe I'm born to be his nemesis.

……

Time flies to February 1th.

Chang'an North Station.

Xue Rui looked at the beautiful girls on both sides and shook his head helplessly.

According to the agreement between him and Xue Jianfeng, he had to go back to Hedong to prepare for the fireworks display. Only when he was going on a long journey would Gu Muxue and Lin Ruoxi come out together to see him off.

Xue Rui called Lin Ruoxi aside: "Xixi, do you and Mu Xue have any secret agreement that you haven't told me?"

During the New Year's Day holiday, Xue Rui wanted to take the two of them out for a stroll, but either Gu Muxue was busy or Lin Ruoxi had to work overtime...

In short, you can only bring one each time you go out.

Xue Rui couldn't help but suspect that this was something the little girl and the little girl had discussed privately.

"No, we haven't talked much recently." Lin Ruoxi blinked. She and Gu Muxue didn't talk much on weekdays. They had a tacit understanding when eating and washing dishes. If one of them cooked in advance, the other would take Xue Rui to wash the dishes.

As they spent more time together, they talked less and less, and could understand each other's intentions with just a nod and a smile.

But the relationship seems to be getting better and better...

Xue Rui sighed, Lin Ruoxi did not lie to him.

His relationship with Gu Muxue heated up very quickly, which also led to the failure of his idea of ​​having girls all around.

Although the two girls did not dislike each other, they just wanted to be alone with him.

Living together on weekdays is a kind of compromise and indulgence to him.

"I'm going back. Don't miss me too much." Xue Rui said with emotion.

Gu Muxue gave Xue Rui a cold look and said, "You'll be back tomorrow, who would miss you?"

Xue Rui was speechless. The little girl always said one thing and meant another. He decided to be tough today.

"If you say so, I will stay at home for a few more days. My mother said she missed me a lot." Xue Rui said slowly.

Lin Ruoxi panicked: "Then...then I'll go back too."

"Ruoxi, he is lying, let's go back."

Gu Muxue knocked on Lin Ruoxi's head.

Xue Rui's smug look made her feel very unhappy.

Lin Ruoxi covered her head: "I know...I know, but I still want to watch it for a while longer."

"What are you looking at? Let's go." Gu Muxue pulled Lin Ruoxi's arm.

Lin Ruoxi pouted and reluctantly followed Gu Muxue, turning around and looking back every three steps.

Gu Muxue turned and threatened Xue Rui: "Don't drink, or don't come back."

"Of course, of course." Xue Rui said embarrassedly.

After the two turned around, the middle-aged man who was standing by and looking stunned handed Xue Rui a cigarette.

"Little brother, are you going to Hedong too? We're from the same hometown."

Xue Rui smiled and declined: "Thank you, my girlfriend doesn't allow me to smoke."

"Which one is your girlfriend?"

The man put his cigarette away and looked at the two girls with a gossipy look on his face.

It was so strange. The tall girl had such tenderness in her eyes and spoke without any reservation. It looked like she and the boy were a couple.

But the short girl happened to be wearing the same white scarf, like a couple's outfit.

One is gentle and affectionate, while the other is a bit aggressive, but seems to have more independent opinions.

Xue Rui rubbed his chin, spread his hands and said, "Both."

The man grinned and looked Xue Rui up and down: "Go ahead."

Xue Rui smiled but did not respond. He knew that no matter how many words he said, they would be in vain.

Suddenly, Lin Ruoxi jogged a few steps and ran back.

"It should be this." The middle-aged man nodded and took a step aside.

Xue Rui suddenly received a big hug, which made him feel a little dazed.

"Xixi, why are you back again?" Xue Rui pushed Lin Ruoxi away.

"Well, you...you opened your arms just now, didn't you ask me for a hug?" Lin Ruoxi said guiltily.

"You lied to me?" Xue Rui was speechless and paused several times in one sentence.

"I... I was wrong. There is still half an hour before the train departs. I want to go into the waiting room and wait with you for a while." Lin Ruoxi said truthfully.

"Go back. I'll be back tomorrow morning at the latest."

Xue Rui said as he turned Lin Ruoxi around and stretched out his arms towards Gu Muxue.

You can't favor one over the other. Gu Muxue is thin-skinned, so most of the time he has to take the initiative to give the girl a way out.

Gu Muxue was stunned for a moment. She walked to Xue Rui with awkward steps, looking at the people around her from time to time.

She actually cared a lot about the outside world's opinion, not about herself, but because she was afraid that Xue Rui would be accused of some bad crime.

But even though Xue Rui stretched out his arms to her, she still walked over in a cowardly manner.

Gu Muxue lowered her head and gently nestled into Xue Rui's arms.

"Go home and let me say hello to my uncle and aunt. I actually miss you very much."

Gu Muxue murmured in a low voice.

"Yeah, I know." Xue Rui patted Gu Muxue on the back and watched Gu Muxue leave.

The middle-aged man standing by looked so shocked that his eyes almost popped out of his head and he even forgot to flick the ash from the cigarette in his hand.

After the two girls walked away, he threw away his extinguished cigarette and looked Xue Rui up and down: "Where are you from? Let's carpool together when we get home?"

"My dad will pick me up." Xue Rui replied.

The man laughed and scolded in Hedong dialect: "Don't let me see you when you leave the station, or I'll tell your dad."

"Would I be afraid of this?" Xue Rui sneered.

In fact, he was really panicked.

This is why I haven’t dared to go home for such a long time!
As far as Xue Rui knows, there are always golf clubs in his father's trunk all year round.

But his father doesn't know how to play golf. (End of this chapter)
