his kisses are sweet

Chapter 416 The Finale

Gu Rugui smiled and raised his hand to touch her head, "I'll wait for you downstairs."

After that, he walked out of the bathroom slowly.

Ah Shu watched his back as he left lightly, angrily stuffed the toothbrush into his mouth, and grinded his teeth vigorously.

Gu Rugui's footsteps paused, and the corners of his lips raised involuntarily as he watched her act like a child with anger.

After washing, Ah Shu took a shower and went downstairs, just in time to meet Aunt Fang coming out of the kitchen with soup, she looked at her and called "Madam" with a smile.

She looked a little ashamed, but she thought that Gu Rugui had proposed, she was wearing a ring, and they did not miss out on the things that should be done between a man and a woman, not to mention that they have a daughter in common, so they agreed with peace of mind.

But when he met Gu Rugui's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling, his ears still felt hot, but he sat down in front of him calmly and said, "Gu Rugui, did you take something from me?"

"Ok?"

"Xiaoying said that my mobile phone is with you?"

Gu Rugui took the spoon from Aunt Fang, scooped up a bowl of soup and handed it to her, "Upstairs in the study, eat first, and I'll get it for you after eating."

"Okay." Ah Shu replied, without asking anything, drinking the soup with downcast eyes.

Gu Rugui's eyes flickered.

After the meal, he went upstairs and took off Ah Shu's cell phone and handed it to her, telling her, "I just charged it yesterday."

Sensing her suspicious gaze, he explained: "At first, I was afraid that your mobile phone would be turned off all the time, and that Professor Shen and Mrs. Shen would be worried if she couldn't contact you."

Hearing him mention his parents, Ah Shu couldn't help being curious, "By the way, I've been away for so long, how did you tell my parents about this?"

Gu Rugui looked at her, "Is this important?"

"A little curious."

"It's nothing, I just told them what you told me." While speaking, he had already walked towards the entrance.

Ah Shu hurriedly grabbed his coat and followed, but he couldn't help being suspicious, "That's it?"

Gu Rugui looked at her sideways, "Otherwise?"

"It's so unfair." She curled her lips in dissatisfaction, and she couldn't help but feel a little bit brooding about what happened at the beginning, "Why do they believe everything you say, but they don't believe anything I say, is it your own or mine? biological?"

Gu Rugui's movement of leaning over to change shoes froze, he straightened up and hugged her, and kissed her forehead lightly, "I'm sorry for making you feel wronged."

The soft lips brushed against his forehead, Ah Shu was stunned for a moment, and then a touch of affection spread from his heart.

She snorted, "I'm not here to argue with you about the past, but Professor Shen and Mrs. Shen are not Niannian, they are not so easy to fool!"

Gu Rugui stroked his chin and said with a smile, "Maybe I look more believable."

"..." Ah Shu couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

Seeing this, the corners of Gu Rugui's mouth curved deeper and deeper.

She knew that as long as he didn't want to say something, even if she racked her brains, she couldn't find out why, so she pushed him angrily, "Get out of the way, I'm going to change my shoes and go to the hospital to see my daughter."

Gu Rugui didn't move at all, he held her hand helplessly, and sighed softly, "Do you think that when we went back to Shen's house that day, Professor Shen and the others didn't see that there was something wrong between me and you? They knew You know that, so when I mentioned your departure to them, they weren't too surprised."

He paused, pressing his fingers on her knuckles again and again, and the words were a little vague, "Don't talk about them, even I believe it."

Ah Shu understood, her parents saw the awkwardness between her and Gu Rugui, and when she left without saying a word, they all subconsciously thought that it was because she refused to forgive him for his actions, but the fact is that Actually, she was just delayed by things.

"It's all my fault. Are you wrong?" Ah Shu snorted coldly, "If I had known this, I shouldn't have come back so early."

Gu Rugui held her hand tightly, staring at her with burning eyes, "You mean, you never thought about not coming back?"

Ah Shu broke free from his hand and said while changing his shoes, "Otherwise I'm stupid? I've been chasing you for nearly 20 years, and I finally caught up with you. Could it be that the fat pigeons that are full of mouths just let go?"

Gu Rugui narrowed his eyes dangerously, is he a fat pigeon?
Before he could get angry, Ah Shu curled his lips again and said, "No, you're not a fat pigeon. Even a fat pigeon tastes better than you. You're just a big rock, so hard that you can't chew it or break it. Only when people hit their heads badly, they are willing to make a small opening."

Gu Rugui couldn't help laughing, "It sounds like you're dissatisfied?"

"Shouldn't it? Gu... Shitou!" A Shu raised his eyes and glanced at him coolly, biting the end of the sound on purpose.

He obviously likes her, but still hangs on to her all the time. If she hadn't put all his eggs in one basket in the end, wouldn't the two of them regret it for the rest of their lives?
Thinking of this, Ah Shu felt inexplicably angry.

Gu Rugui looked at her swollen cheeks, and pressed her forehead helplessly, "Yes!"

"Hmph." Ah Shu snorted coldly, raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Then Gu Rugui, before we get married, shouldn't we make an agreement for three chapters?"

Gu Rugui pursed his lips and smiled, "Let's listen."

Ah Shu said without thinking, "First, don't lie to me; second, don't drive me away; third, love me and Nian Nian!"

"So simple?"

"Easier said than done, let alone the third point, you have never done the first two."

Gu Rugui was at a loss for words, he took her into his arms and rubbed her forehead, "It won't happen in the future."

"You'd better do what you say!" Ah Shu bit his chest through his clothes resentfully, "There is one more thing that is the most important... Gu Rugui, I want you to live a good life and live a good life." Longer than me and older than me, you will live until your gray hair is old, as long as I live for a day, you are not allowed to die, do you hear me?"

Gu Rugui gasped after being bitten by her, but the smile on his lips grew stronger, "So overbearing?"

"You said that your life is mine, so I am exercising my ownership!"

"Okay, I promise I won't die, okay?"

Ah Shu was silent for a moment before speaking: "Brother Gu, I'm just afraid. I don't want to bear and can't bear the feeling in the past."

Gu Rugui sighed softly, and held her tightly in his arms, "Silly girl, I still scared you after all."

Ah Shu hugged his waist and curled up quietly in his arms.

Although Gu Rugui enjoyed the quietness now, he did not forget their original intention. He raised his hand and rubbed Ah Shu's head, and asked, "It's time for us to see Monkey King."

Ah Shu raised his head with a look of inexplicable wonder, "Monkey King?"

"Didn't you say I'm a stone? Isn't Nian Nian the Monkey King?"

She couldn't help but chuckled, and scolded: "You are the Monkey King! Nian Nian was born in my stomach, not you, a rock! You haven't used any strength, so don't fight with me here. I take the credit!"

Gu Rugui replied vaguely, "Since that's the case, why don't I work harder at night?"

Ah Shu, "..."

Thinking of his ferocious appearance last night, her ears warmed up, and after hurriedly saying "get cheap and act good", she rushed out the door.

Gu Rugui picked up the coat she had forgotten, and followed her out with a smile.

*
Ah Shu saw Xiang Qi at the door of the ward.

The cast has been removed from his foot and he appears to be fully recovered.

When Ah Shu noticed him, he also turned his head when he heard the movement, and when his eyes fell on her and Gu Rugui's clasped hands, his eyes suddenly sank.

She subconsciously wanted to let go of her hand, but Gu Rugui held it again in the next second, and the latter looked at her and said lightly: "I'll go to Feng Zhong to find out about Niannian's new situation."

After finishing speaking, he glanced at Xiang Qi, turned around and walked towards Feng Zhong's office.

Ah Shu looked at Xiang Qi, and the other party looked at her, and for a while, no one spoke.

Xiang Qi is different from Li Yu. She and Li Yu each get what they need, but for Xiang Qi, she feels guilty both at the beginning and now.

Ah Shu took a deep breath, and then said, "You know everything, right?"

After Xiang Qi said "um", the two fell into a strange silence again.

She and Xiang Qi have known each other for so many years, and this is the first time that they have been silent like this.

Ah Shu tried to break the atmosphere, walked over and stood a step away from him, and asked him hesitantly, "Do you want to go in and see Niannian?"

When Xiang Qi heard the word "Nian Nian", his lips finally moved, "Shen Nian... is she really Gu Rugui's daughter?"

"Yes."

"So, it was because of him that you didn't get on the plane?"

Xiang Qi didn't know about Gu Rugui's condition, and Ah Shu knew he had misunderstood, so he hurriedly explained: "Xiang Qi, Nian Nian is Gu Rugui's daughter, but it's not what you think..."

"Ashu, stop talking, I understand." Xiang Qi interrupted her suddenly, "I gave up when I found out Nian Nian's identity, because I knew that I didn't lose to Gu Rugui, but to lose to Gu Rugui. For you, Ah Shu, sometimes I think how wonderful it would be if you weren't so stubborn?"

Ah Shu lowered his eyes, "I'm sorry."

"I accept this apology." Xiang Qi pulled his lips, looked at her, and said slowly: "Pippi and Qiuqiu have eaten free public food at my house for more than two years, do you want to consider taking them back? "

Only then did Ah Shu remember the existence of those two turtles, and scratched the back of his head in embarrassment, "I'll get them back sometime."

Xiang Qi glanced at the time, "I still have something to go to the police station, I can't go in to see the little guy. I brought the balls out by the way when I went out just now, they are in my car now, you come down with me to get them Bar."

Ah Shu nodded, "Okay."

Not seeing each other for more than two years, Pippi and Qiuqiu have a circle in diameter, I think Lai Xiangqi took good care of them.

Turtles were originally shy creatures. Ah Shu hadn't raised them for so long, and they no longer flirted with her like they used to. They hunched their necks and looked at her strangely.

Ah Shu couldn't help but slapped each of them on the head, cursing: "You two ungrateful ones, I'm your real mother!"

Xiang Qi laughed, and put the vat into her arms, "Why are you competing with turtles..."

He suddenly stopped talking in the middle, Ah Shu looked at him strangely, but saw Xiang Qi's eyes fixed on his ring finger with the ring on it.

She moved her fingers, blocking his view.

Xiang Qi also seemed to realize that he had lost his composure, so he quickly looked away from her hand and asked her, "I don't think I need to tell you how to raise turtles, do I?"

Ah Shu shook his head, "No need, as long as the balls move their tails, I will know what they are going to do."

Xiang Qi nodded, "Then I'll go back to the police station first."

"Ah."

Ah Shu stood on the steps, looked at Xiang Qi who was about to get into the car, and tightened his hands holding the turtle tank, looked at his back and asked, "Xiang Qi, are we still friends?"

Xiang Qi's footsteps paused, and he didn't look back at her, but his voice came through the air, "Of course."

Ah Shu's eyes darkened, she knew that ever since she took over Pippi and Qiuqiu from him, the relationship between them would never be the same again.

Of course, they are still friends.

It's just that there are many kinds of friends.

Ah Shu would not naively think that she and Xiang Qi would still have the same shoulder-to-shoulder relationship as before, because once you have loved deeply, it is impossible not to care about it.

She sighed, turned around and walked towards the hospital with the tortoise in her arms.

In the car, Xiang Qining leaned heavily on the back of the chair, watching her gradually disappearing back.

The mobile phone placed on the dashboard suddenly vibrated, and the note displayed "J".

"Where are you?" A young female voice came from the phone.

"what's up?"

"I have developed a new cocktail, do you want to try it?"

Xiang Qi paused for a moment before asking, "Where is it?"

"Old place, Vista Bar."

"it is good."

Half an hour later, Xiang Qi showed up at the Vista bar on time.

It was not yet business hours, and there was no one in the bar, and the slow music was flowing slowly, mixed with the smell of alcohol, inexplicably intoxicating.

On the bar, there was only a young woman with red short hair and half of her face covered by a ostentatious butterfly mask.

She's "J", the top bartender at Vista Bar.

When she saw him enter the door, J raised her red lips and shook the mixing glass in her hand neatly. When Xiang Qi arrived at the bar and sat down, she also pushed a glass of colorful cocktails in front of her, and said lightly: "It's called' Forget'."

Xiang Qi didn't open his mouth, he directly picked up the wine glass and drank it down in one gulp.

Strong wine entered the throat, and the alcohol burned the throat, but it seemed that a layer of ice had formed in the stomach, freezing all the sensations in the whole body, including pain.

At this moment, time stood still, except for the glass of wine in his hand, there was nothing else, as if time had really been forgotten.

Alcohol is indeed a good thing!
Xiang Qi curled his lips, put down the glass and pushed it back to her, "Your bartending skills have improved, Miss Li."

"J" was surprised for a moment, then slowly took off the mask, and Li Zhiyu's beautiful face appeared under the red hair cover. She pursed her lips and asked him, "When did you recognize me?"

Xiang Qi looked at the butterfly mask in her hand, "That was a popular model two years ago."

Hearing this, Li Zhiyu slid his finger over the butterfly mask. When Gu Rugui was still Li Zhen, seeing that she liked this mask, someone specially made it for her.

These days, she lost all the things he gave her, but only left behind this mask.

But what's the point?
Li Zhiyu swiped with his fingertips, and the next second, the butterfly mask hit the floor heavily, and the rhinestones on the butterfly's wings shattered, as if the wings were broken.

Xiang Qi glanced at the expensive mask on the ground, "Isn't it a pity that such a good thing fell?"

Li Zhiyu twitched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile: "Even if I don't want to change the outdated things, it's better to let go of them than to keep them in memory. I don't want to see them."

Xiang Qi tapped the wine glass with his fingers and said, "I thought all of you women were nostalgic."

Li Zhiyu raised his eyes and glanced at him, and replied, "I thought you men liked the new and hated the old."

Xiang Qi just smiled and raised his wine glass to her, "Will you have a drink with me?"

Inside the Vista bar, the lights were shining, gradually covering up the light of the butterfly...

Westside Hospital
Gu Rugui and Ah Shu came out of the inpatient building, and when they reached the door, Ah Shu's footsteps suddenly paused.

"What's wrong?" Gu Rugui took out the car keys and looked at her sideways.

"Wait for me here."

After finishing speaking, without waiting for Gu Rugui to answer, she turned around and walked back to the inpatient building, talked with the nurse at the guidance desk, and then came out with something like a glass jar.

Seeing this, Gu Rugui frowned, "What is that?"

Ah Shu shook the tortoise tank in front of him, "I thought you knew them."

Gu Rugui stared at the two hard-shelled creatures crawling in the tank, and asked, "Xiang Qi gave it to you?"

Ah Shu shook his head, lowered his head and said to the pair of turtles, "Ball, ball, your brothers don't know you anymore, what do you guys think?"

As soon as the words fell, Gu Rugui's face darkened instantly!
Turtle... go home!

Ah Shu looked at his ugly face, smiled harmlessly at his good animal, and then calmly floated away with the turtle in his arms.
