Gu Zi asked if he had anything to worry about since someone was helping him with the paperwork. He looked at her, who was curled up under the blanket, not wanting to move at all, and asked, "Do you want to sleep a little longer?" I'll take you back before dawn. "

Mingxue rubbed the sofa and shook her head. "The fireworks outside are too noisy. I can't sleep."

"Then …" His attitude was a little hesitant. "Do you want to go back now?" There was a reluctance in his tone that he had not noticed.

"…" She knew she didn't want to leave. She wanted to stay with him for a while longer, but could she just follow her heart and tell him that she wanted to stay? Would it seem like she was being too casual? She had never stayed out the night before …

After thinking about it, she decided to go back. Didn't he say that they had a long time ahead of them? Why fight for a day and a night? She continued to stay here and he had no way of resting.

Ming Xue Mo got up with a hint of nostalgia, "Yes, Aunt Yun and Uncle Zhong should be sleeping soundly by now. If they find out later, things won't be good."

Gu Zi asked and nodded. "Fine, I'll take you home." He took the trench coat from the side and draped it over her body. "Put it on first to prevent it from getting cold."

"Thank you." Mingxue put on her slippers and went downstairs with Gouzi Wen. The pair of red leather shoes that had created unforgettable memories for them were forgotten in his house.

A few hours later, Mingxue Mo changed into a comfortable and warm set of clothes and came up from downstairs. Uncle Zhong and Aunt Yun were obviously very surprised to see her.

Aunt Yun came over and asked, "Miss, when did you come back?"

Mingxue skipped over her question and handed her a red packet. "Happy New Year, Aunt Yun!" If her parents weren't home, she would give Aunt Yun and Uncle Zhong a red packet as her masters.

Aunt Yun paused for a moment before accepting it. "Thank you, Miss."

Mingxue handed another red packet to Uncle Zhong, "Uncle Zhong, happy new year!"

" "Thank you, Miss." Uncle Zhong received it with both hands and bowed to thank her. Then he said, "Miss, your things are still in the car. I'll bring them over for you."

"Alright."

Uncle Zhong quickly took the jewelry and gave it to Ming Xue Mo. She looked at the gift that even the box contained the word 'precious', then thought about what happened yesterday and said to Aunt Yun, "Aunt Yun, after breakfast, I'll go to the hospital to see Grandfather. Prepare yourself."

Aunt Yun acknowledged.

She took the box upstairs without opening it and put it in the dresser drawer.

At this moment, at the Gu household, Teacher Tang was happily distributing New Year's red packets.

A group of servants and bodyguards paid their respects to Teacher Tang one by one. After she sent out the greetings, she asked Gu Zi, "Where's Young Master?"

Receiving the red packet, A-Lie first said a bunch of auspicious words to Teacher Tang. Then, he replied, "Young Master was tired last night and hasn't woken up yet."

" "Lie A, be careful when you speak, or else you will easily become ambiguous. If you anger the young master at that time, you might not only be able to go to night school." Tang Xiu purposefully criticized him, but was overjoyed to receive another big red packet from Ah Lie. This one was originally meant to be given to Gu Zi to ask.

As a result, on the first day of the new year, A-Lie offended his young master. He became the first person in the new year to offend Gu Zi.

The second person who had provoked Gu Zi was Tang Xiu's most treasured teacher, Ah Xin. The so-called 'companion monarch with a tiger' was referring to these close personal palace maids and eunuchs.

On the second day of his junior year, he was called and criticized by Gu Ziquan. At first, after the lottery, Acin had become very smart, and before she took Gu Zi's clothes to wash, she would dig out his pockets clean, leaving only a few pictures behind, but that wasn't a hundred percent safe either. For example, this time, when she found a piece of chocolate in his pocket and put it on Gu Zi's desk, she was eaten by Gu Si, who was playing inside, and she even asked, "Dad, where did you buy this chocolate? It doesn't seem right."

He thought that Gu Si had left it in his room when he was playing, but upon hearing his question, he remembered that he and Mingxue had bought it on the night of New Year's Eve, facing the streetlights, facing the wind, and after walking for such a long distance, and his first thought was to pinch Gu Si's small mouth to make him spit it out.

Smelly brat, this piece of chocolate is so hard to come by, he even dares to complain about the taste! However, he ate so fast that the moment he realized what was happening, he stuffed the remaining half into his mouth.

Gu Zi asked if he really could not pry open Gu Si's mouth. How could he be willing to settle the score with his precious son?

A'Xin was as brave as ever. She had already lost 300,000 yuan in the lottery ticket, so how could she be afraid of losing this piece of chocolate? He directly bought four pieces to compensate, changing it by three times, then gave three pieces to him as a gift.

Gu Zi's heart really ached from being angered by her. She could still tolerate it. Did she really think she could afford to pay for it? She didn't understand the meaning behind this!

"A'Mo, your wife sent me chocolate behind your back, what do you think we should do?" It would be difficult to quell the hatred in his heart if he did not provoke and sow discord between them.

A'Mo: "Young master, you're wrong. She gave it to me in front of me."

Gu Zi grabbed all the chocolates and threw them at him. "Go back and greet your parents and mother-in-law!"

Gu Zi's New Year was spent eating, drinking, and playing, while Ming Xue Mo rushed to the hospital and family every day. Until the start of school, she didn't even manage to enjoy the Lantern Festival.

Minh woke up three days after he was admitted to the hospital, but the situation was not very optimistic. The Ming brothers were all waiting at the hospital for the Spring Festival. Not only that, they were all crowded around the hospital, wishing that they could rent a room on this floor as if they were staying in a hotel.

Mingmei knew what they were thinking. According to Minghe's current physical condition, anything could happen. Perhaps, this was their last chance to make a living. Perhaps, if they pretended to be filial children for a day, they would be able to exchange it for ten years of glory and wealth.

But at this critical moment, the family's performance aside from being united, was also exclusive. On the morning of the first day, because Mingxue and Momo hadn't had a good rest and yawned, Cao Qingqing scolded them harshly: "You're yawning right after you got up, are you so unwilling to come and see your grandfather? If you are unwilling, you can leave. No one will leave you behind! "

Ming Xue Mo's reaction was naturally to be disinclined to respond to her. She didn't come for her, nor would she leave for her. No matter what she said, it had nothing to do with her. No matter what she did, she couldn't interfere!

However, there were times when Ming Xue Mo didn't want to go. It was the second day of the new year, so Dai Weiping called her grandma to greet her. She heard that Xue Mo didn't go to her house, so after asking, she found out about Ming He's illness. He hadn't contacted her for months. That very morning, he called her and asked her for her details. Ming Xue Mo kept the piece of jewelry Ming He gave her (because she was in the hospital, the other Ming family members were by her side), and only roughly told her what had happened at the table. After listening, she calmly said, "Then you don't need to go anywhere during the winter vacation, just stay with grandpa in the hospital."

Then he hung up.

Listening to the busy beep, Ming Xue Mo's heart was clogged up, and she hung up just like that … Had he never thought of coming back to see his grandfather? If the situation was not optimistic, this might be the last time. Did he not want to see it? Since he was so heartless, why did he need to let her accompany him? Could it be that if she accompanied his grandfather, he would be able to feel at ease? Then, why wouldn't she go!? She was going to make him feel uneasy. It would be best if she could make it so that he wouldn't be able to eat or sleep in peace!

She looked forward to Ming He who still hadn't woken up from his sickbed, and Ming Xue Mo couldn't get up on her own. If she really left like this, then she would probably be the first one who couldn't rest in peace. Thus, she stayed behind with resentment towards her parents. She came here every day for nothing, not for anyone, but only for the filial piety that was due to her.

She didn't ask him again for the rest of the winter vacation, but he would often send her messages about fun and delicious foods, which he would take and share with her. She asked, "Do you want me to wait until I'm thirsty?" He replied, "No, I'm pulling on hatred."

His hidden message was: "If you want to seek revenge on me, feel free to come and challenge me."

She didn't see through his caution, but tacitly replied, "I'll write down this debt. In the future, we'll settle it one by one."

He asked, "What day is it? Is it to wait for my long hair to reach my waist?"

She used a smile that was as big as a tooth as she replied half-jokingly and half-seriously, "If your long hair reaches your waist, I'll take you in as my demoness."

He acted frightened, "Please spare my life, Lady Piaomiao." The next second, the atmosphere suddenly changed, "It's the last semester. Cheer up, try to get a reading for Ben Bo. Surpass Lu Feng in one fell swoop and become the person with the highest education."

Ming Xue Mo was silent for a long time. There was no major at the University of Buenos Aires that Benbo was studying... The question that was still pending now was once again laid bare before his eyes. It was too difficult to decide whether to leave or to stay … Maybe only time could tell her the answer...

One month later, March 25th arrived in a hurry.

After careful treatment by the doctor, Minh's condition was clearly controlled. Although he had not fully recovered to his previous level, his speech was much more nimble than when he first woke up, and his mental appearance was also very good. At last, Mingxiu was in the mood to plan her eighteenth year of adulthood as she wished.

That day, she finished her tutoring for Gu Si. When Gu Zi asked about taking her home, she asked him before getting off the car, "Big Brother Gu, are you free next Saturday?"

Gu Zi asked what the next Saturday was and deliberately asked, "What's the matter?" He knew that it was her birthday. He had already marked his desk calendar and was waiting for her to speak.

Mingxue's face turned even more beautiful as she said, "It's my birthday that day."

"Oh." Gu Ziquan was still pretending to nod his head in understanding when he teased her, "How can such a smart person like you be born on April Fool's Day?"

Ming Xue's beautiful eyes stared at him. "Then, which day should I be born?"

Gu Zi asked, imitating the look of the divine stick. His thumb and forefinger intertwined as they rubbed together. "About this, let me calculate a bit."

Ming Xue Mo laughed for a second, not knowing how to respond.

Gu Zi asked, keeping his joking attitude in check and asked seriously, "How do you want to celebrate your birthday?"

Ming Xue had already planned this long ago, but she pretended to only start thinking about it now, so as to not reveal the truth that she had plotted so long ago. After hesitating for a while, she said, "I want to go boating. We're going to have a monthly holiday next weekend."

"That's it?" Gu Zi asked, feeling that this wasn't grand enough. She could go rowing any day, but how could she use it to kill her once-a-year birthday? Furthermore, this was the birthday of an adult that she had gone from a minor to an adult.

"What else?" Did he have any other plans? Ming Xue Mo suddenly looked forward to it.

"Let's set up a Party. The place will be Lan Xiao's bar. Once you reach adulthood, you can occasionally go there. As for the details, leave them to Lu Feng. I'll pay the fees, and I won't increase his salary this year."

She did not argue with him about who would pay. She had to believe that he would definitely not suffer a loss when it came to money.

"Alright." She was also as thick-skinned as he was, accepting the Party plan, which would eventually be paid for by Lu Feng, but first she declared, "But I still have to row. You have to save this time." This was the main point of her birthday. Whether she could improve her relationship with him would have to wait for the day to come when the answer would be revealed.

Gu Zi's voice was gentle to the extreme. "You're a birthday star. You're the oldest, so it's all up to you."
