Chapter 26

After removing Fu Pei, who was an obstacle. The problem left between Mo and Gu Weiyi was whether he should go to Uncle Sam's arms.

Mo knew this problem had to be faced sooner or later, but she just wanted to put off, burying her head in the sand like an ostrich, whether the hair on her buttocks was pulled out or not. But Gu Weiyi was also annoying, discussing this problem with her all day long, affecting her plan to pull out the hair. In order to make the plan well implemented, every time Gu Weiyi mentioned it, she devoted herself to diverging from the topic, covering her ears and playing tricks when she couldn't diverge.

Gu Weiyi was so angry at her unscrupulous behavior in implementing the ostrich program but he could do nothing about it. Anyway, he had already decided not to go a long time ago. For him, the reason why he applied for MIT was that he couldn’t find anything more meaningful to do at that time. He just wanted to challenge himself. Now that the challenge was successful, it is not meaningful for him whether to go or not. Moreover, with concern, how could he go far. He has recognized the reality a long time ago, and he needn’t struggle.

Mo went out to shoot advertisements with brother Tie and Lin Zhicun today. The shooting location was relatively remote. There were fewer man made issues which could have postponed the shoot. It was just over 11 o'clock when the shooting was finished.

After the work was completed, she simply went home after being approved. Unfortunately, Gu Weiyi wasn’t at home, and didn't answer the phone. He was supposed to be in the laboratory. She didn't think much about it and sent him a text message: I'm back, and I'll cook for you if you can come back earlier.

After she simply solved her lunch, she practiced writing the advertisement on the tea table in the living room. Just as her thoughts flowed, the doorbell rang constantly. She thought Gu Weiyi had forgotten to take the key, so she dropped her pen to open the door, complained while opening the door. Unexpectedly, there was a beautiful woman standing at the door. Mo paused for a moment before she realized that it was Xiaoguang’s mother. Although she was a neighbor, the chances of meeting her were very few. It was estimated that the time for them to and from work was staggered.

Xiaoguang's mother apparently had not expect Mo to open the door, and the smiles piled on her face was rigid, stuck embarrassingly. Mo pinched the cold sweat for her, and kindly helped her out: ‘Hello, Xiaoguang's mother? What's the matter?’

The beautiful woman laughed twice hollowly and said, ‘Yes, that…is Gu there?’

Mo shook her head and said, ‘He's not here. Is there anything I can convey?’

The beauty said: ‘Actually nothing, he had helped me repair the computer before. I made some food specially to thank him, you can just help transfer it to him.’

Then Mo found that she had a small pot in her hand. She was embarrassed to have kept herself appreciating the beauty just now. She took over the pot and said, ‘Okay, thank you on behalf of him.’

Suddenly the beautiful woman smiled charmingly and said, ‘By the way, my name is Yuli. You can call me sister Li later. Don't call me Xiaoguang’s mother, which made me old. I'm about your age.’

Mo smiled and nodded, ‘Sister Li, would you like to come in and have a sit?’

Yu Li shook her head. ‘No, Xiaoguang is at home alone. Just let Gu bring the pot back later.’

Mo closed the door, lifted the lid of the pot, it was cold noodles in sauce, the same amount of food as what Gu Weiyi usually ate. It seemed that it was not the first time that he had repaired the computer. Besides, the meal was delivered when she was not at home, there is something fishy behind this..

She put the pot down heavily and picked up her pen again, only to find that the inspiration that had been interrupted was bleak and cold, and could never return. She thought as a reasonable woman in the new age, it would be Gu Weiyi who should be responsible for this issue.

Mo opened his cabinet. He was looking for a book when he saw the mobile phone, and took a look. It's very strange that to his surprise, Situ Mo called him and sent him a text message. After staying with her for a long time, Gu Weiyi slowly learned some of her habits, found that she was far less shrewd and diligent than she had shown. She had a lot of things too lazy to do, and the points were very strange. For example, she was too lazy to watch the advertisements on TV, so she never watched TV. She was too lazy to take an umbrella out, so she was often chased by the rain. she was too lazy to press the phone buttons, so she hated texting.

‘Brother, a professor from the University of California is going to give a lecture this the afternoon. Are you going to listen to it?’ The door of the laboratory was pushed open, and a girl in a white gown came out. She was Gu Weiyi’s sister in university, Lu Jianshi. She looked like a flying fairy among the students of science and technology. Recently Gu Weiyi had been arranged to guide her to do experiments.

Gu Weiyi put his phone in his pocket: ‘No.’

Lu Jianshi inquired: ‘It's a rare opportunity, and it's a pity not to go!’

Gu Weiyi: ‘It would be the same for me to watch videos online.’

Lu Jianshi was still unyielding: ‘The scene will be different, you can also question him, what do you have to do in the afternoon?’

Gu Weiyi knit his brows, said slightly coldly: ‘I have something to do, have to go.’

Lu Jianshi realized that she had been too meddlesome, quickly remedied, ‘I'm sorry, brother, I didn’t mean anything else. I just think it's a pity that it was not easy for the college to have invited him to give a lecture.’

Gu Weiyi picked things from the cabinet while replying to her, ‘I understand but I have something to do at home. I've read all the books of this professor. I know his ideas clearly and I won’t have questions.’

Lu Jianshi closed the door of Gu Weiyi's cabinet. Would it be a great deal which had made the brother who would remain calm even if the Mount Tai collapsed in front of him forget to close the cabinet door.

Lu Jianshi admired this brother very much, or even adored him. Especially when the freshmen were in military training, he gave them a welcoming speech on behalf of other elder brothers and sisters. She stood close to the rostrum and could see his clean face, bright eyes and a little bit of sweat shining on his forehead. His cool voice floating over the crowd. At that time, she had a flash of a phrase in her mind - Like spring breeze. Later, she learned a lot about this brother's deeds. For example, when he took the college entrance examination, his composition score was zero, but he was admitted to the third place in the whole school with the scores of other subjects. He always received first-class scholarship after he entered the school. Many papers of him were published in famous scientific journals... But it was said that he had always been famous among girls, but no one could get into his heart. In this way, she thought she still had a glimmer of hope, then she would call him to care about it later.

As soon as Gu Weiyi opened the door, he rushed inside and shouted, ‘I'm back.’

Situ Mo sat cross-legged on the ground, leaned her back against the sofa, looked up at him lazily, and gave him a hum. He went over and sat on the ground like her, facing her and asking, ‘What's wrong? Didn't you said cook for me if I come back earlier?

Mo stared at him coldly, ‘You needn’t me to cook!’

Gu Weiyi was stared at inexplicably, ‘I came back specially, but you didn’t cook for me?’

Mo nuzzled at the tea table, ‘Well, there is something to eat.’

Gu Weiyi moved past to reach the pot, opened it and had a look, smiling: ‘How did you know I like to eat cold noodles in sauce?’

There is a loss, called unintentional loss. There is an end, called death to the end.

Mo leaped up like a needle and looked down at him. ‘I don't know!’

He was still foolishly looking at the noodles, hearing her words which were full of gunpowder, looking up at her, ‘How could you make cold noodles?’

She sulked, ‘I can't cook cold noodles.’

Gu Weiyi took another look at the cold noodles: ‘You bought it?’

Mo turned her head and said coolly, ‘Sister Li sent it here. She said thank you for repairing her computer.’

Sister Li? He had an epiphany. He was trying to say something when his phone rang. He took it out and answered the phone.

Mo took a quick look at the screen of my mobile phone. Lu Jianshi? Female? Then she clearly heard a ‘brother’ come from the other side of the phone, so sweet and greasy, making her numb. She stared hard at the way he talked on the phone. The last time she spoke to him in that voice, he looked like he was bit by the ghost. But, now he's enjoying it.

Gu Weiyi answered the phone and found that Lu Jianshi had nothing important to ask. He made a few casual replies and hung up. Looking back, he found that Situ Mo went to the kitchen to pick up the chopsticks and tried to hand them to him. He took them but dared not move, ‘I suddenly feel not like to eat cold noodles, or you can fry some rice for me?’

Mo leaned over her desk and turned over her notebook, replied coldly, ‘I'm busy.’

Gu Weiyi was really a novice at this aspect of cajoling. After a long time of deliberation, he could not think of anything to say that would make her happy. He had to say nonsense: ‘I think these cold noodles smell strange. Weren’t these bad?’ I would have diarrhea if I eat it.’

Mo looked at him coldly and said, ‘Can’t be bad, someone has just made it.’

Gu Weiyi couldn't do anything, so he put his face on the table like her and spoke to her, ‘What on earth do you want to do?’ Wouldn't it be all right if I didn't eat it?’

She got angry when watching this attractive face, she just felt like to twist his ears and turn it 360 times. But she could only grind her teeth and say, ‘Eat, why don't you eat, don't you like to eat it.’

Gu Weiyi couldn’t help laughing, ‘It couldn’t be seen that your jealousy is very strong. From now on, there will be no females within ten miles of my circle, okay?’ It was a sweet joke to him, but it wasn't the same thing in Mo’s ear. She couldn't help complaining that her little peach blossom had been cut off with a sword two days ago, but his peach blossoms were blooming all over the mountain. What’s more, did she have to meet such men, who had been very popular with girls. If she let him go to the United States, wouldn’t he bring her a dozen children of different colors back?

Gu Weiyi thought she didn’t look good, so he quickly put aside his laughter, ‘I helped her fix the computer only once, and it took ten minutes to fix it. I didn't even have a cup of tea at her home, and Xiaoguang was also there. I definitely didn't get along with her alone.’

His explanation did not reassure Mo, on the contrary, he was a little anxious and annoyed, which made her happy, ‘Did I say something? Don't portray me as such a stingy person.’

Gu Weiyi mixed the cold noodles with chopsticks in his hand and said ingratiatingly, ‘Okay, you're not stingy. Cook for me.’

Mo looked at the cold noodles and said, ‘What about this? It's wasteful not to eat.

Gu Weiyi raised his eyebrows and smiled, ‘I dare not eat anyway.’

Mo was very dissatisfied with his relentless behavior of teasing her. Was he that happy by laughing at her? What's wrong with him?

Gu Weiyi leaned against the kitchen door to watch Mo who was busy in cooking. Her tall ponytail stirred slightly with her cutting action, which made him feel relaxed and happy. However, he still wanted to say a few words, ‘Just fry rice will be enough, why are you cooking dishes? It's almost two o'clock.’

Mo didn't look back, ‘I do it now, so I don't have to do it in the evening.

Gu Weiyi showed expression of ‘I see’, ‘Then put less vinegar on your sweet and sour pork ribs.’ He turned around and ran away.

The knife in Mo’s hand paused for a moment. After reaction, she ran after him with a kitchen knife, ‘Gu Weiyi, I’m going to chop you for the dishes today!’
