Chapter 9 What Are You Hiding From?

Gu Xiaoyou didn't understand and said as she walked to the street lamp. "Even if you haven't calculated your own volume, you should at least calculate the width of the lamppost. Can it block you? Why are you hiding?!"

Seeing that Li Junhuan's car was slowly turned around, Han Muning walked out from behind the lamppost reluctantly and stared at the black Phantom. "Why do you stay with him?"He asked.

Gu Xiaoyou let out a deep sigh, waved her hand and said casually. "Let's not talk about it. It's a long story ..."

"..."

Before Han Muning could ask any other questions, Gu Xiaoyou had already grabbed his sleeve and walked towards the store with him.

...

In the small shop, the heating system made them feel hot.

The proprietress gave them more crayfish than usual and said, "I am sorry. Winter isn't the season for crayfish. These crayfishes are small, so I decide to give you a few more..."

Han Muning thanked her with a smile and asked her for two cups of beer on draft.

Unfortunately, the beer was not iced.

The two of them ate the crayfishes with their hands full of red oil. After eating more than half of the crayfishes, they wiped their hands and began to pick up the beer to drink slowly.

Gu Xiaoyou didn't seem to be happy.

Han Muning knew by the phone that Xu Ruochun had gone to find her, so he could somewhat understand why Gu Xiaoyou was feeling down now.

After a long time, Han Muning asked tentatively. "Xu Ruochun didn't make things difficult for you, did he?"

Hearing Han Muning say that, Gu Xiaoyou suddenly felt like crying.

Indeed, the feeling of being cared for was different.

Yan Hengbai only cared about whether Gu Xiaoyou had bullied Xu Ruochun. However, Han Muning only cared about whether Gu Xiaoyou was bullied or not, instead asking her anything else...

...

Gu Xiaoyou was a little drunk after drinking a large cup of beer.

Her tears fell into the beer mug , and mixed with brown and yellow beer.

Han Muning was a little flustered. He was afraid of a girl's crying in front of him the most.

He was all at sea and had to coax her. Seeing that Gu Xiaoyou was crying even harder, he didn't know what he should do.

The proprietress walked over and handed a bag of napkins to Han Muning. She patted his shoulder with her big hand and said. "Let her cry for a while. I'm afraid this girl is feeling wronged. When I saw her enter here, she didn't look good ..."

Han Muning turned around and looked at the proprietress. He was speechless and took the napkins from her.

The proprietress continued to say. "It's better for her to cry. Don't try to talk her out of it, or it'll make her even sadder ..."

Han Muning nodded as if he understood. He stared at the proprietress blankly as she turned around and left.

He handed the napkin to Gu Xiaoyou, but Gu Xiaoyou just grabbed his arm.

Han Muning did not retract his hand. He stood up and walked to Gu Xiaoyou's side. He then sat down beside her and allowed her to hug his arm and cry.

Gu Xiaoyou wiped her snot on his sleeve and asked after she was tired from crying. "Aren't you a neat freak? Why don't you hide?"

Han Muning frowned. He wanted to hide, but he could not yank Gu Xiaoyou away.

Han Muning said heroically. "I've only seen you cry twice since I knew you. The first time you cried, you broke a dog's leg in the courtyard with your uncle's gun, and your grandfather hit you with his belt. The second time you cried, your mother died and you hid yourself in the car alone ... Today is just the third time ..."

Gu Xiaoyou looked up at him with red eyes.

Han Muning sighed, shook his head and continued to say. "To be honest, I really despise you for crying like a dog for a man. Are you still the Gu Xiaoyou I know?"

"..."

Gu Xiaoyou didn't want to reply him. She wiped her tears away and jumped up before she reached out for the beer mug.

Han Muning was frightened and asked quickly. "What's the matter? What kind of crying is this? Do you need to jump up when you cry?"

Gu Xiaoyou was not in the mood to make a joke with him. She pointed at her stinging eyes, sniffled, and cried with tears. "It's so hot, it hurts, it hurts ..."

It was not until the proprietress rushed out that the crisis was finally resolved.

The proprietress took Gu Xiaoyou to the kitchen and rinsed her eyes with cold water, which made her feel better.

...

At the table, Han Muning looked speechlessly at Gu Xiaoyou, who was in an embarrassing state, and he could not say a word.

After a long time, he finally managed to squeeze out a sentence from his mouth. "You deserve it!"

Gu Xiaoyou glared at him and continued to eat the crayfishes without any consideration. She even asked the proprietress for two more cups of beer in draft ...

After drinking a few large cups of beer, the two of them became talkative gradually.

Han Muning made dirty jokes calmly. Gu Xiaoyou smiled foolishly and put the shelled crayfish into his mouth before she started husking crayfishes for herself.

Hearing that Han Muning's dirty jokes were almost over, Gu Xiaoyou asked him when she was drunk.

"Muning, you're so handsome. Why don't you find a girlfriend? Have you become homosexual over the years since I left? !"

"..."

Han Muning spat out a mouthful of alcohol fumes and glared at her.

"Can you hear what you just said? I'm the straightest man in this world. I am so straight that I may scare you!"

Gu Xiaoyou laughed heartily and couldn't even swallow the beer.

"Then why don't you find a grilfriend? " Gu Xiaoyou asked.

Han Muning put his hand on her shoulder and held her. "It's not that I don' t want to ... Do you understand?"

Gu Xiaoyou shook her heavy head and giggled. "I don't understand ..."

Han Muning was also drunk. He stared at her for a long time. Gu Xiaoyou was unable to understand the complex emotions in his eyes.

Very quickly, Han Muning pushed her away and said. "I've been looking for a right person, but I haven't met anyone suitable ..."

Han Muning was outstanding, and she believed he could find any kind of girl as his girlfriend.

Han Muning burped and gestured at Gu Xiaoyou. "You say ... I have to find someone better than you, right? I don't want you to laugh at me in the future ... Hiccup ..."

Gu Xiaoyou nodded vigorously. "Yes, you're right!"

After saying that, her eyes were already filled with tears.

The beer mug in her hand seemed to become two mugs, and even Han Muning seemed to have three heads and six arms ...

In the end, Gu Xiaoyou could not remember how much she had drunk. Anyway, Han Muning was lying on the table and did not move.

...

Gu Xiaoyou took out a few hundred yuan from from her purse and pressed them against the table. She got up and walked out.

She pushed away the hand of the proprietress and said that she was not drunk while she was staggering. She just wanted to get some fresh air.

Perhaps because the proprietress was afraid that she would throw up in the shop and the proprietress knew that she was still able to walk, she didn't stop her anymore.

Gu Xiaoyou opened the door of the restaurant by herself, walked to a lamp on the side of the road, and sat down.

She couldn't feel how cold it was under her body, but now she was worried about Han Muning.

She struggled to find her phone in her bag, but the screen of her phone couldn't be seen clearly.
