Chapter 57

Because of Gu Weiyi’s bad face, the afternoon became very long. The computer was occupied by him. Mo had to lie idly in bed, reading her high school graduation memoir and peeping at Gu Weiyi, who was playing games, from time to time. He played the game very hard today. When he hit the beast, the clicked mouse and keyboard hard. There were mechanical howls on the computer all the time. Tut-tut slaughter was very heavy.

 

Mo stayed silent with him for one or two hours, and she couldn't stand it any longer. She stood on the bed and threw the graduation memoir at him, shouted at him with her hands on her waist, ‘Why are you unhappy?’

 

Gu Weiyi was hit surprisingly, and was shocked, but there was still a thoughtful expression on his face. He looked very silly and naive.

 

He picked up his graduation album and walked slowly to bed.

 

Mo thought she was going to be beaten, smiled modestly, and stepped back to sit down.

 

He just sat down by the bed, opened the graduation memoir, turned pages, stopped and waved Mo over.

 

Mo did not know the reason. The page he opened was a big picture taken at a class event. She looked at it carefully for a moment. She was holding her deskmate in her left hand. A tall girl, black, cut a boy's short hair. She was holding Xu Jieer in her right hand, while Fu Pei was among a group of boys. They were separated by 180,000 people, thousands of miles.

 

She studied for a long time before she joked, ‘Well, this was my deskmate. She's a woman, just a little like a boy. You've been angry for this all afternoon?’

 

Gu Weiyi sighed and pointed to Xu Jieer and said, ‘Is Xu Jieer your classmate?’

 

Mo stared, ‘How did you know her?’

 

Gu Weiyi hesitated for a moment before saying, ‘She was the girl who went to our class in Senior Three.’

 

Mo was stunned, her head turned into a cave in an instant, and there were trains going by, booming, booming, booming...

 

Xu Jieer did transfer to another school in senior three. At that time, Mo felt sorry that her transfer had something to do with herself. Later, she heard that her transfer was due to her parent’s job transfer. Later, she heard that she had a good time in her new school and found an excellent boyfriend, so she slowly forgot about it.

 

God, how interesting! It was said that there were 1.3 billion people in the whole country. How could they get together like this? Even if there were no more actors in the theatre, there was no such trick to the heroine!

 

Gu Weiyi was sent to the living room by Mo to watch TV, and she shut herself in the room to sort out her messy thoughts. Gu Weiyi tuned the TV to a very low pitch, turning the stage slowly one by one. His mind was also in a messy, his rigorous scientific brain was trying to search why there was such a strange coincidence, searching for a moment only to find that this was a small probability even couldn’t be explained by science. So he had to turn to TV dramas and novels he had read. After a long time retrospective analysis, he came up with a result – Situ Mo was sent by Xu Jieer to retaliate against him.

 

Such a result was worthy of disgust, but he suddenly remembered the disgusting attitude Situ Mo had towards him when he first met Situ Mo. Did she already know that? It's impossible to... Situ Mo’s small intestine can't turn so many curves...

 

As a scientifically rigorous person, what Gu Weiyi hated most was to encounter such a paradoxical mystery.

 

However, since he was at others’ home, he was unable to shoot the door openly and quarrel clearly, he could only turn the TV channels helplessly.

 

Gu Weiyi looked at the clock on the wall. It was four o'clock, but she hadn’t come out yet. What if her mother came back later?

 

He turned off the TV and knocked on Situ Mo’s door, ‘Situ Mo, come out, I have something to ask you.’

 

It took a long time for the door to open. Situ Mo looked very tired. She said weakly, ‘I happened to have a lot to ask you as well.’

 

Gu Weiyi said openly, ‘You ask first.’

 

Mo thought for a long time and didn't know what to ask. She had to falter and say, ‘That... Did you do that with her?

 

Gu Weiyi did not expect that she would ask such a question. He was shocked for a moment before he lost his good breath and said, ‘No!’

 

Mo said, ‘I don't know what to ask. I'm depressed. Why have I been following her to pick up men all the time?’

 

Gu Weiyi frowned and asked, ‘All the time?’

 

Mo lowered her mouth, ‘She used to be my good friend, Fu Pei's ex-girlfriend.’

 

Gu Weiyi’s face was not alarmed, but he was secretly estimating in his heart, which, from a scientific point of view, the probability was a little smaller...

 

Seeing that he was silent, Mo asked, ‘What did you want to ask?’

 

‘Why did you treat me so badly when you first met me?’

 

Mo was shocked, how could he ask such an unrelated question?

 

After that, Mo began to recall why she had always looked down upon him, uh... It seemed because... She thought he liked Fu Pei...She seemed couldn’t say that...

 

So Situ Mo, who hesitated for a long while without speaking, deepened Gu Weiyi’s question. He asked calmly, ‘Why are you stammering?’

 

Mo said wrongly, ‘It was long time ago, why did you ask this?’

 

Gu Weiyi said, ‘Don't worry, just answer it.’

 

‘Then you can't get angry...’

 

Gu Weiyi’s heart sank and he said reluctantly, ‘I'll try my best.’

 

Mo spoke haltingly, ‘I thought you liked Fu Pei...’

 

Gu Weiyi stared at first, then narrowed his eyes slightly, ‘What did you say?’

 

Mo was ready to risk everything, ‘I thought you liked Fu Pei!’

 

After that, she turned around quickly and tried to close the door. However, Gu Weiy moved faster than she did. He quickly dragged her down, stuck her elbow in her neck, and made her scream.

 

‘Let go, I really can't breathe...’ Mo took his hand and said, ‘No, you are very man. In my imagination, Fu Pei was a woman, you are a man.’

 

So... He tightened up.

 

They just tricked the time. It's disappointing, neurotic.

 

Mo lay side by side with Gu Weiyi in bed, quietly looking out the window at the blue sky and white clouds painted by wires.

 

After a while, Mo rubbed her neck and complained, ‘My neck is painful.’

 

Gu Weiyi gave a hum and did not reply.

 

Mo got angry by him and hit him on the stomach with a blow of her hand.

 

Gu Weiyi gave a grunt, couldn’t she just enjoy such a moment of peaceful life?

 

Mo raised her head with her hand, put it under her head and pillowed it. Then she said to herself, ‘I'm so depressed. Why did I always pick up Xu Jieer's men? It's not fair. I really unhappy... I have to drop you.’

 

Gu Weiyi turned his head and looked at her coldly, ‘So, I'm always picking up Fu Pei's women, and I have to drop you as well.’

 

When Mo thought about it carefully, she was really amused and laughed again. She rubbed her head on his arm and said, ‘Yes, we are all victims in this way, so we'd better be together.’

 

Gu Weiyi glanced at her lazily and said, ‘Just resign ourselves.’

 

‘Ah!’ Suddenly Mo jumped up screaming and almost stepped on Gu Weiyi's lower body.

 

Gu Weiyi covered his trampled leg and scolded, ‘You want to trample me to death?’

 

‘Oh, I'm sorry, but... yesterday, Xu Jieer said that she would come to my home today…’

 

Mo’s remark shocked Gu Weiyi and he sat up and asked, ‘Why didn't you say it earlier?’

 

Mo said, ‘I forgot...’

 

Gu Weiyi thought about it, then lay down lazily, and said, ‘It's afternoon, she shouldn't come, even if she comes, she won’t eat you.’

 

Mo nodded and shook her head, ‘But she swallowed sleeping pills for you?’

 

‘Don’t mention it, we were young then.’ Gu Weiyi said sulkily.

 

‘Yes, she's married.’

 

‘She's married?’ Gu Weiyi was surprised.

 

‘What? The groom was not you. Are you sad? Mo said sourly.

 

‘Well, it suddenly occurred to me that I seemed to have been married as well. And you?’

 

‘Well, it seems like I'm married, too.’

 

‘Who's married?’ Mo’s mother suddenly appeared and frightened both of them out of bed at the same time.

 

Mo covered her writhing waist and sighed. She was tired today.

 

Gu Weiyi sighed that Situ Mo’s home was a real partition with many ears, but still smiled and answered, ‘Mo’s friend, Xu Jieer, happened to go to our school later.’

 

Situ Mo’s mother got interested, ‘Really? That's quite coincidental. I remember that girl, who was very beautiful, got married? What kind of man did she marry?

 

Mo nodded, ‘Well, it seems that she just got married recently.’

 

Situ Mo’s mother nodded and said, ‘I always thought that the little girl had peach blossoms in her eyes, and that she would be unlucky during her loving period. Fortunately, she got married.’

 

Mo and Gu Weiyi looked at each other, speechless. How could her mother act as a fortune teller, and in her mother's mind, as long as she got married, her loving period would be very smooth.
