Chapter 56 -056: What’s the Inconvenience?
Not far away, Leng Jing and Tang Yu stood under the shade of the trees, watching her gaze up alone, watching her leave by herself.
“Where’s the little fox? How did she disappear in the blink of an eye?” Shen Letian and his group came over.
“Where’s Gu Hangshen?” Leng Jing countered without answering.
Did Gu Hangshen know that his parents had looked for Xiaoqiao? What exactly did they say to her?
A sense of unease grew faintly in Leng Jing’s heart.
“Aunt Gu asked him to escort Gong Hannian home,” Leng Tou answered.
Gu Hangshen was decisive and ruthless in any matter, but, when it came to his parents, he was almost obedient to their words, whether they were right or wrong, and he was even more indulgent towards his sister Gu Xiaorou…
Although it was completely understandable to be good to one’s family, Gu Hangshen’s kindness always made people feel that something was not quite right.
“Qin Yao, why don’t you take Xiaoqiao home? It’s so late, and it’s not safe for Xiaoqiao to be alone,” Gu Xiaorou requested while clinging to Qin Yao’s hand.

“You needn’t bother yourself,” Leng Jing said and immediately followed the direction Gong Xiaoqiao had left.
Tang Yu shrugged his shoulders and followed.
Gong Xiaoqiao had always thought she was alone; she didn’t know that someone had always been silently following her, watching her wait in the night wind for a taxi, watch her feed the big black dog, watch her climb through the window, watch the lights come on in the third-floor dormitory.
…
It wouldn’t be long before the school’s winter break, and the next day Gong Xiaoqiao rented a house outside right away.
At night, Gong Xiaoqiao made a call to the school apartment, which rang for a long time without an answer, confirming that Gu Hangshen wasn’t there, so she went back to pack her things at ease.
Right in the middle of packing, her phone suddenly rang, displaying—
“Uncle Gu.”
Gong Xiaoqiao hesitated but answered the phone, “Hello, what is it so late at night?”
Without waiting for Gu Hangshen to reply, Gong Xiaoqiao immediately took the offensive, “If you dare to tell me you miss me and try to deceive me into climbing the wall in the middle of the night…”
“I don’t have my keys,” Gu Hangshen interrupted her directly.
Five seconds later.
The apartment door suddenly opened from the inside; Gu Hangshen was leaning against the door, and without checking, he fell backward, nearly tumbling down.
“Drinking again…” Gong Xiaoqiao frowned upon smelling the alcohol on him and looked at him.
Though she had let it slide the last time by saying she would throw him out if he drank again, after all, she was not going to live there in the future, so she had no reason to bother about him anymore.
“You’re home…” Gu Hangshen was obviously very surprised, looking at her, then at the messy belongings and the large boxes in the room, “What are you doing?”
“Packing my things,” Gong Xiaoqiao replied.
“Home”—this word stabbed her in an instant.
Apart from school, she had spent the most time here, and Gu Hangshen, although so busy, always made time to come here.
It was here that she fell into despair and couldn’t extricate herself, and it was also here that she stood up again; almost all their memories of the past four years were borne by this place.
“What did my parents say to you last night?” Gu Hangshen rubbed his forehead as he sat down on the sofa.
“Nothing much, just showed some concern,” she replied.
“You’re lying to me.” He held her busy hand still.
“If you already know, then why ask me? I’m neither a relative nor kin to you, and always staying over at your place— it doesn’t look good,” she said.
“We’ve always been like this, what’s wrong with it?” Gu Hangshen caught her other hand which was putting away clothes.
Gong Xiaoqiao stretched her foot and hooked her slippers over, “It’s inconvenient.”
Without any sense of propriety, Gu Hangshen kicked the slipper back to its original place, “What’s inconvenient?”
