Rebirth: Start to Save the Treasure Girl

Chapter 45 Balenciaga
Gu Muxue's home.

Gu Muxue angrily threw her phone on the bed. Xue Rui looked at the photo and sent an "886". The avatar immediately turned gray.

“886” means goodbye. Say goodbye without saying a word?
She remembered that something was wrong with Xue Rui when they were in school. He clearly said he would come to her to confess his love, but he stood her up again and again.

"What if he doesn't confess his feelings anymore..." Gu Muxue started to get nervous.

Gu Muxue didn't understand what love was or what feelings were.

She only knew that she was very happy when she was with Xue Rui.

Moreover, Xue Rui would confess to her once a day, and every time she would be secretly delighted in her heart: Now it's your turn to beg me.

But now Xue Rui stopped pursuing her, and this situation left her at a loss as to what to do.

"Why am I looking forward to his confession? Could it be that... I subconsciously want to agree?" Gu Muxue's eyes were blank.

The sound of the piano can convey emotions. The notes played by Gu Muxue's slender fingertips are no longer as smooth and lively as before, but instead carry a hint of sadness.

Outside the piano room, the middle-aged man frowned when he heard the sound of the piano.

This person was exactly the handsome guy that Xue Rui saw in the photo.

But now the handsome guy has entered middle age, and there is no sharpness between his brows, but instead a sense of elegance and easy-going.

It was as if he had transformed from a swordsman in white to a scholar in white.

This is Gu Muxue’s father, Gu Qingshan.

He walked quietly to the door and knocked on the open door a few times.

"Xue'er, are you in a bad mood? Talk to your dad." The man chuckled.

"Mr. Gu, my classmate said he met someone who looks very similar to me." Gu Muxue answered casually.

Gu Muxue has a good relationship with her father and is not that reserved.

When there was no one around, she liked to call her father Lao Gu.

“Someone who looks like Xue’er?” Gu Qingshan was obviously a little surprised, and a figure with pigtails flashed through his mind.

"Could it be her..."

Gu Muxue tilted her head and asked, "Who is she? Old Gu, do you know someone who looks like me?"

Gu Qingshan dodged his gaze and waved his hand, “That’s not the case.”

Gu Qingshan suddenly became nervous, and when he mentioned that person, he subconsciously spoke out what was in his heart.

"Dad, something's wrong with you." Gu Muxue looked at her old father deeply.

In her impression, Gu Qingshan has always been very steady and would never lose his composure like this. His body language has already betrayed him completely.

“Dad is free today, can I play tennis with you?” Gu Qingshan adjusted quickly and returned to normal in an instant.

"Who is that person?"

Gu Muxue muttered to herself that she couldn't get anything out of her father. She decided to question Xue Rui when she got to school.

……

Xue Rui's home.

cloakroom.

In Xue Yao's area, there were colorful clothes of various styles, and each piece was very valuable.

Xue Rui turned his head and looked at his own cabinet. There was very little in it, only some cheap goods.

"This one doesn't suit you. I'll take it and donate it to children in the mountains."

Xue Rui was holding a light-colored long skirt in her hand. The color was very plain and very suitable for Lin Ruoxi.

“Is it appropriate to wear a skirt in the mountains?”

Xue Yao's heart was bleeding. Although she didn't wear it, she felt a sense of satisfaction when she put it on display.

But Xue Yao had no choice but to kick Xue Rui. This was her retribution.

She thought Xue Rui would ask for pocket money, or ask to play computer in his room.

But he actually wanted her clothes!
"Girls from the mountains also love beauty, Yaoyao, don't be so superficial." Xue Rui took out another pair of trousers, and imagined what Lin Ruoxi would look like in this dress, just like playing with a changing doll in his mind. The more he thought about it, the more satisfied he became, and the happier he became. The clothes in his hands became more and more, and they became heavier and heavier, so he simply found a suitcase to put them in.

"By the way, what's your shoe size?" Xue Rui asked casually.

In fact, before asking, he had already taken away several pairs of sneakers and casual shoes.

The point is, Xue Rui's hand had already reached her evening dress, which she was going to wear at her junior high school graduation ceremony.

"You! I'm going to tell mom!" Xue Yao was so angry that her eyes were filled with tears.

Xue Rui shook his head. There were quite a lot of clothes, but they were all light-colored. Even the shoes were mostly white and pink.

To be precise, Xue Yao's clothes were too flashy, so he deliberately picked out some that were suitable for Lin Ruoxi.

But the weather in Hedong is...dust-filled, and light-colored clothes need to be washed every day. Are there no dark-colored clothes?

He opened his mother's closet and smacked his lips. It was too luxurious.

Either they are mature and graceful long skirts or luxurious dresses, few of which are suitable for Lin Ruoxi.

Just as he was about to close the door, he caught a glimpse of a box with the Balenciaga logo printed on it. When he opened it, he saw a few pairs of brand new pantyhose.

"Black stockings?" Xue Rui was lost in thought. Black stockings and Lin Ruoxi...how shocking they would be.

So, he put it in the suitcase.

"Well... that's enough." Xue Rui was very satisfied. He closed the full suitcase and said to himself that he must bring it over tomorrow and let Lin Ruoxi try it.

Xue Rui dragged the suitcase into his room.

Lying on the hard bed and looking around, I saw that the house was completely bare.

There was nothing there except a bed and a table.

Xue Rui couldn't help but think of a ranking:
Ren Qunfang>Xue Yao>Xue Jianfeng>Xue Rui.

Family status is roughly ranked like this. If his family has a dog, it would probably be ranked ahead of Xue Rui.

"I've had enough of this world where women are superior to men." Xue Rui angrily slammed down on the bed.

The recoil from the bed board hurt his hand and his brows furrowed even deeper.

Ren Qunfang said that children cannot sleep on soft beds, so there is a hard bed in his room.

But Xue Yao's bed is very soft...

"I need to improve my family's status." Xue Rui muttered to himself, and then fell into a deep sleep.

After taking a nap, it was time for dinner.

The whole family sat neatly at the table.

Because Xue Jianfeng didn't come back, Ren Qunfang sat on the main seat, Xue Yao and Xue Rui sat on both sides, like left and right bodyguards, Xue Xiaying was next to Xue Yao, and Ren Jun was on Xue Rui's side.

"Mom, my brother took my clothes away." Xue Yao continued to complain.

"What nonsense are you talking about? What does your brother need your clothes for?" Ren Qunfang didn't care. She just thought her daughter was throwing a tantrum and looking for an excuse to bully Xue Rui.

"You usually wear school uniform at school, and you're just a stay-at-home girl when you go home. What's the point of having so many clothes?" Xue Rui retorted.

"Did you really take it?" Ren Qunfang couldn't believe it.

"He must want to use my clothes to do something shameful." Xue Yao gritted her teeth.

Xue Rui suddenly felt a little flustered, because he thought of the Balenciaga, and thought of how he had brought Lin Ruoxi to the city and arranged for her to live in a small house that no one knew about, just like keeping a lover...

But he remained calm and said, "I'll use it to do good deeds. My teacher taught us to be helpful. What do you think, aunt?"

"Me?" Xue Xiaying pointed at herself. The two had been quarreling for a long time. Why did they involve her today?
"Don't worry about them, just eat your food." Ren Jun kept putting food into Xue Xiaying's bowl.

"That's enough, thank you." Xue Xiaying nodded with a smile.

She knew that Ren Jun was her sister-in-law's younger brother, but she studied abroad all year round and had only met Ren Jun a few times during the Chinese New Year.

"You teachers' salaries are very high, right? Plus you get weekends and winter and summer vacations." Ren Jun casually brought up a topic.
