The snow-white instep with faint blue veins, the round and cute heel, and the crystal clear and plump toes...
Even the gaps between the jade toes were not spared.
Gu Qing looked at Su Xiyue's focused and serious expression, but his thoughts couldn't help but fly to the distant past.
"When was the last time someone wiped his feet like this?"
It seemed as if his biological mother had just given birth to him not long ago. At that time, he was not yet able to move and could only let Gu Yuan clean his body.
38. Happiness is almost overflowing
Su Changqin and Gu Yuan returned home early today.
Of course, I received the driver's message.
As soon as they entered the door, the two of them came up to Gu Qing and asked about his well-being.
Su Changqin still felt worried, so she called an old Chinese doctor.
After the elderly female traditional Chinese medicine practitioner looked at Gu Qing's wound, she wrote down a prescription and said:
"It's no problem. Just take some medicine to reduce the internal heat. Western medicine calls this anti-inflammatory."
Finally, he took Gu Qing's pulse, then looked at Gu Qing and said:
"Young Master is in good health, but he has a bit of a temper. You should relax when you need to. Don't think too much when you are young!"
The old Chinese doctor gave a few more instructions, and then was sent to the driver's car by Su Changqin and Gu Yuan.
"The old doctor is a famous doctor in the health care team. Since she said so, Qingqing, you should remember it. Your health is more important than anything else." Su Changqin said with concern.
Gu Qing nodded and listened carefully.
"But how did Qingqing get injured?" Su Changqin asked.
"I'm leaving--" Su Xiyue just opened her mouth but was immediately interrupted by Gu Qing.
"The road has been renovated recently, so the bus has to take a longer route. I get a little carsick, and I twisted the car accidentally." Gu Qing interrupted.
After saying that, Gu Qing gave Su Xiyue another look.
In fact, there would be no problem even if she told the truth, but Su Xiyue would inevitably be scolded by Su Changqin.
Su Xiyue was in the middle of intense preparation for the exam and was seizing the time to improve her grades. Even one or two points would be great.
Young hearts are sensitive.
Gu Qing was afraid that Su Changqin would say something harsh, causing Su Xiyue to feel guilty and self-blame, thus affecting her preparations for the exam.
Moreover, he was the one who felt carsick halfway and suggested walking home.
If we really talk about responsibility, he is no less responsible than Su Xiyue.
"During this time, I will arrange for a driver to pick up Qingqing and Xiyue from school. I was negligent about the road repair and didn't notice it!"
As the head of the family, Su Changqin made up his mind.
Dinner was ordered into the house from a luxurious restaurant outside.
Although Su Changqin and Gu Yuan both knew how to cook a little, considering the injured Gu Qing, they were unwilling to let Gu Qing make do with what he had.
No matter what kind of injury it is, as long as it is an injury, nutritional supplements are needed.
After finishing the meal, Su Changqin said again: "I have already called the school. Qingqing should stay at home and recuperate for the next few days."
"With Qingqing's grades, it doesn't matter if you review a little bit. Just ask Xiyue to bring your school textbooks back to you tomorrow."
"Yuan, please ask for leave from the company and stay at home with Qingqing during this period of time."
Seeing that Su Changqin had arranged everything, Gu Qing did not refuse.
Now the school's courses are mainly reviewing, and Gu Qing's accumulation is enough for him to face the upcoming college entrance examination with ease.
A little later, after Gu Qing drank the medicine he had just brought back, he was carried up to the second floor by Su Changqin and Su Xiyue.
After returning to the bedroom, Gu Qing read some miscellaneous books for a while and then heard a knock on the door.
"Come in directly, the door is not locked." Gu Qing said.
As expected, the person who came in was Su Xiyue.
At this time, Su Xiyue changed into a white ice silk nightgown, revealing her two white calves, and she was wearing black flip-flops.
Su Xiyue rarely had the opportunity to enter Gu Qing's room.
The first time was to help Gu Qing clean the room.
The second time was when I helped Gu Qing into the bedroom.
But this is the first time such a formal entry has taken place.
Gu Qing's room was extremely tidy, without any unnecessary embellishments or decorations.
The bookshelf was not filled with books, but the books that were put there showed signs of having been flipped through.
Unlike Su Changqin's bookcase that takes up an entire wall, although it is spectacular, two-thirds of it is decorations.
The Tang sword that left a deep impression on Su Xiyue was still placed on the desk, next to it was a white business laptop.
There is no interface plug-in on the laptop, which probably means it is rarely used.
Su Xiyue knew that Gu Qing liked reading paper books more than playing with his mobile phone and computer.
"Sit wherever you like."
Gu Qing said that he knew Su Xiyue must have something to say to him.
At this time, Gu Qing was half sitting on the bed, her slender legs and white feet were covered by the light blue air-conditioning quilt.
The boy was wearing pajamas that vaguely revealed his collarbone, with his long black hair hanging naturally and oval half-frame glasses, looking very cute.
Su Xiyue thought about it and sat down next to Gu Qing's window. This way she and Gu Qing were closer, but she needed to turn sideways when talking.
As soon as she sat down, Su Xiyue noticed that Gu Qing's bed was not as soft as she had imagined.
It seemed like there was a layer of mattress missing, and it was a little hard.
"Gu Qing, I want to know why you want to take all the responsibility on yourself. It was clearly my fault that afternoon."
Su Xiyue spoke with mixed emotions in her tone.
She looked straight at Gu Qing, her eyes seemed to want to penetrate Gu Qing's heart and understand his true thoughts.
After hearing Su Xiyue's question, Gu Qing slowly put the bookmark into the page.
After closing the book in his hand, Gu Qing looked at the girl in front of him and said softly:
"Right and wrong don't matter to me."
"What's important is that no one gets hurt as a result of this."
"——But this will make me blame myself even more!" Su Xiyue blurted out.
For some reason, when she looked at the handsome face of the boy in front of her, a face that was always calm and indifferent, she could always feel a vague sense of distance.
She could even feel that Gu Qing was always on the edge of this family.
It seemed that if he was not careful or there was a gust of wind, Gu Qing would be blown away by the wind.
She didn't want to see that scene.
"Gu Qing, you always think about me, last time and this time too!"
"Whether it's for Mom, Uncle Gu, or even for me, you seem to be willing to sacrifice yourself unconditionally. You are always giving, and I feel..."
Su Xiyue paused for a moment. Her fast speaking speed and thoughtless words made it difficult for her to describe her feelings at the moment through verbal words.
“It feels like you’re going to leave at any moment.”
After a while, Su Xiyue was able to describe it with difficulty.
"And you always seem to be afraid of owing us something."
The girl added.
After listening to Su Xiyue's heartfelt words, Gu Qing's expression did not change.
He just looked at Su Xiyue quietly for a while, until the girl's emotions eased a little, then he slowly spoke:
"Well, from a certain perspective, Xiyue, you are right."
Gu Qing did not deny that he was incompatible with this world.
Although it was not exaggerated to the point of being in opposition to each other, Gu Qing had his own bottom line when it came to certain matters of principle.
But now is not the time to discuss these profound and macro propositions.
At this moment, Su Xiyue actually cared more about Gu Qing's attitude and thoughts.
"I think I know what you are thinking, Xiyue."
At this time, Gu Qing gave Su Xiyue a faint smile.
It was not a flattering smile, but a smile that came from the heart with the corners of the mouth slightly raised.
Those curved eyebrows are like the crescent moon in the night sky tonight, clear and untainted.
"But actually I..."
Gu Qing raised his head slightly, letting his small chin hang in the air, and then pressed his chin with a slender index finger.
After thinking for a while, Gu Qing looked straight at Su Xiyue and blinked.
"Actually, I feel very happy right now. I am almost overflowing with happiness."
"That's why I want to share this happiness with you."
39. Confession is a declaration of victory, not a clarion call to charge.
It might be difficult for Su Xiyue to understand what Gu Qing was saying at this moment.
But what Gu Qing said came from his heart.
From a middle-aged man full of stress and a boring life, to today's young body and an environment with almost no external pressure.
From a deserted house of two people without any emotional factors, to a family of four connected by emotion.
From old to young; from illness to health; from stress to relaxation; from just suitable to independent choice.
Even though there are many things and rules in this world that Gu Qing is not used to.
But Gu Qing is already very content, so he cherishes it especially.
"I am not just floating on the edge of you."
Gu Qing looked at Su Xiyue, the expression on his face was no longer calm, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, his eyebrows were slightly curved into a crescent, and his pupils were slightly shining.
"I just cherish you very much, so I have to be more careful for this hard-earned happiness."
"——But can't a family do whatever they want?"
Although Gu Qing's face was filled with smiles at this moment, like a blooming elegant flower.
But Su Xiyue still couldn't understand Gu Qing, so much so that her voice tone unconsciously rose a little.
"To operate and maintain it so deliberately and carefully is... also..."
Su Xiyue used the word "also" twice in a row and didn't finish her words.
But Gu Qing directly said what Su Xiyue had not finished.
"It's too fake, right?" Gu Qing looked at Su Xiyue, as if he could see through her.
"Yes..." Su Xiyue nodded with difficulty, her tone no longer high-pitched, but rather low and hoarse.
She thought that this might be a bit too much and might hurt Gu Qing, so she had not been able to say it out loud.
But I didn't expect that Gu Qing had already understood it.
Gu Qing's answer was: "No happiness comes naturally."
"Even if there is, if it is not managed carefully, cracks will appear sooner or later."
