C213 New life
Thinking of this, Gu Xiaoxiao laughed, there was not much money left on him.
However, it was not without good intentions. For example, when the little hoodlum was about to rape her, one of them let her leave as if he had found her conscience. Although he had lost more than half of his money, he was still able to keep her clean. For example, after being tricked by the landlord, the landlord even "affectionately" gave her a quilt. Was he afraid that she would be cold while sleeping on a bench? Gu Xiaoxiao laughed helplessly.
"Gu Xiaoxiao?"
A woman's voice that was filled with disbelief rang in Gu Xiaoxiao's ears, followed the voice and looked towards the direction of the voice. She seemed to have an impression of this woman standing in front of her, but she was not able to recall anything immediately.
That's right!
"You are Ai Lin!" She remembered, this woman was the one that she met when she was still working on her brand at the time. At that time, Ai Lin said that he admired her design, and the two of them chatted for a while, "I didn't expect you to be Italian." She seemed to remember that Ai Lin was a Canadian and had heard Ai Lin tell her how beautiful Maple Leaf was in Canada.
"Nope." Ai Lin looked at Gu Xiaoxiao shyly, "Actually it's him, he's Italian, so I came over with him." Ai Lin pointed to the man beside her.
Gu Xiaoxiao took a look and saw that it was a man in his early thirties with facial features that had a strong sense of place, making Gu Xiaoxiao frown. It's not that she didn't like this kind of man, it's just that she had seen too many of Huo Moting's men, so she didn't really make calls to this kind of man.
"Oh right, what's going on with you?" Ai Lin frowned and pointed to the luggage beside Gu Xiaoxiao, "Did you encounter any trouble?" Why was it that every time she met Gu Xiaoxiao, there would always be a different situation?
"That's what you're talking about." Gu Xiaoxiao laughed helplessly and pointed to the luggage beside him, "This is really difficult to put into words." She sighed and chose to talk to Ai Lin about something that was not important, including how she was tricked into being bullied. She even had the last bit of money she had left and lived a life without any purpose.
"Darling, your experiences sound really miserable." Ai Lin laughed unrestrainedly, "But what do you plan to do now? You can't possibly stay in the wilderness, right?" With a frown, she looked at the man beside her. She believed that he would understand what she meant, and in a moment, he nodded his head towards her. Ai Lin smiled.
"Isn't there an old saying in China? When a car arrives at the mountain, there will be a road ahead of it. " Because Gu Xiaoxiao's Italian was limited, she could only use English to communicate with him. However, this crappy English made Ai Lin even happier, "You're still laughing, who would have known that Chinese proverbs are so hard to say." Gu Xiaoxiao looked at the laughing Ai Lin speechlessly.
"Cough cough, stop laughing. You can stay at my place. I have a small house in the city that can accommodate you, so I'm not here often." Ai Lin smiled and said her thoughts. She couldn't possibly let Gu Xiaoxiao really sleep on this bench, since she really liked this cute and petite Oriental woman.
The man who was always by Ai Lin's side did not say anything. As long as Ai Lin was happy, it was fine, but he did not have any objections.
"Then forget it." Gu Xiaoxiao was startled, she just did not want to give Qin Ran anymore trouble, so she immediately gave Ai Lin more trouble, "I'll keep looking, I just need to find a job, that's all." Gu Xiaoxiao still subconsciously refused, but as to what kind of person Ai Lin was, she fundamentally wouldn't allow anyone to reject her.
As he said that, he gave the man a look, and Ai Lin stepped forward and held onto Gu Xiaoxiao's hand.
"Don't get involved with him. I enjoyed your writing when I was in China. Even if you came to stay, I don't trust you to sleep outside. Just make friends then." If not for the fact that she had looked at Gu Xiaoxiao's combination and design later on, she wouldn't have been able to amaze everyone present and successfully gotten this man's heart.
Gu Xiaoxiao could only agree embarrassedly, but she had her own thoughts.
"I'll give you the rent when I get a job. You must take it when the time comes." Gu Xiaoxiao's persistence caused the eyes of the man beside Ai Lin to light up.
"They say that the Chinese have principles. I didn't believe it before, but now I do." The man who did not speak looked at Gu Xiaoxiao admiringly as he spoke in Italian. He did not expect this Chinese woman to repeatedly insist on paying the rent, which really made him stunned for a moment. After all, he and Ai Lin were not lacking in money.
But the most embarrassing thing was that Gu Xiaoxiao could only hear the Chinese characters inside. She looked at Ai Lin quietly and asked, "What is he saying?"
"Don't worry, he's praising your beauty." Ai Lin looked at Gu Xiaoxiao who was beside her with a funny face. Even with these few lines of crappy Italian, she actually dared to come here alone.
"Stop teasing me." Gu Xiaoxiao's face reddened. It seemed like the man didn't really mean anything important, and just went to the place she said with Ai Lin.
Even if Gu Xiaoxiao had already seen Huo Moting's luxurious house before, she was still stunned by the sight of Ai Lin's apartment. It looked normal on the outside, but on a closer look, this house was extremely luxurious at every corner.
"Ai Lin, I will find a place to stay as soon as possible." Gu Xiaoxiao said awkwardly. She could not afford to pay rent in this place, with her abilities.
"It's fine as long as you live here. Stop talking nonsense and tell me what work you want to do." Ai Lin laughed helplessly, the little girl was still thinking about the rent, "This house is empty, and you can still help me clean it up, if you insist on giving me the rent it doesn't matter, since it doesn't matter how much you give me." Ai Lin said to Gu Xiaoxiao in front of him. Being able to meet him in a foreign country could also be considered fate.
Gu Xiaoxiao smiled with gratitude. If she still persisted on like this, she would not be able to appreciate her kindness, but she did not know how she could repay the Ai Lin in front of her.
"Oh, by the way, do you want to go back to your design business? If you want, he can help you." Pointing to the man beside him, Ai Lin said to Gu Xiaoxiao, she believed that with Gu Xiaoxiao's talent in design, she would definitely be able to occupy a place here.
"No need." Gu Xiaoxiao shook her head. Since Qin Ran was not around, she did not think much of it, either. "I still want to return to my starting point and continue being my cellist. As she spoke, she pointed to her cello in the corner. However, it was already very late. For the sake of her neighbor, she wasn't stupid enough to take it out and demonstrate it.
Ai Lin still felt that it was a pity. She really liked Gu Xiaoxiao's way of designing things, but nevermind, since Xiao Xiao Xiao had her own way of thinking, she only needed to be respectful. With that, Ai Lin left her number and left after giving her some instructions.
After sending off the two of them, Gu Xiaoxiao laid on the bed and looked at the ceiling. The Italian style of small town was different from the noisy and rigid cities, it felt much better walking around here, and this was what it meant to have a path ahead of time. Gu Xiaoxiao laughed, and began to look forward to the new life.
After marriage, Huo Mochen and Lin Xiao's life had always been peaceful and quiet. It was not right to say that they treated each other with respect, and when the two were intimate, it would also make people blush, but Lin Xiao always felt that there was something missing in their lives, however, she could not say it.
"Darling, how about we pack up and go for a walk together?" Huo Mochen seemed to have thought of something, as he told Lin Nuo, who was cleaning the house, that ever since he had married him, he had not seen Lin Nuo go out with his friends again. His resting time was also limited, and after thinking about it, he decided to bring Lin Nuo along for a stroll today.
"Why did you suddenly say that you're going out for a stroll?" Lin Nuo was stunned for a moment, but she did not stop what she was doing. She did not know why her husband said this, but she could not get rid of that strange feeling in her heart. As for what was strange, she could not find it.
"I need a reason to go out with my wife, my dear. Quickly pack up and go out to relax." Regardless of what his purpose for marrying Lin Nuo was, now that Lin Nuo had married him, every day she would obediently do her own thing without causing him any trouble or making a ruckus. He also wanted to pity this woman who had married him.
She quickly went back to the house to clean it up. She had thought about it, no matter what the lack of feelings was, Mo Chen was still willing to coax her. See, it was just that easy for her to be satisfied.
Huo Mochen held onto Lin Xiao's hand and walked around his home's market. He could feel Lin Xiao's nervousness, after all this was the first time he brought Lin Xiao to his home's market, so he could understand why.
"What's wrong? Are you tired? Do you want to take a rest first?" Huo Mochen considerately whispered into Lin Xiao's ears, and was not surprised to see her red ears.
"It's so embarrassing to be like this." Lin Nuo lowered her head in embarrassment. She was a shy person to begin with. How could Mo Chen tease her like this? How could she face others in the future?
"I'm not teasing you anymore. Is there anything that you like? Tell me, I'll buy it for you." Huo Mochen squeezed Lin Nuo's hand as he walked forward with his.
"No, I don't have a cold for jewelry." Lin Nuo said with a smile. How could she wear something like that when she was at home? However, she could feel the man holding her hand stiffen.
Lin Xiao raised her head to look at Huo Mochen, and coincidentally saw Huo Mochen staring blankly ahead, and followed his gaze to look curiously. When she looked, Lin Xiao felt as if her blood was flowing out, and her mouth was emitting a bitter taste, it was Zhong Qing's woman who appeared at the wedding.
She didn't tell Huo Mochen that she had seen a photo of Yuan Liluo before. She knew that Zhong Qing looked very similar to him, but looking at the current situation, there was no meaning in talking any further.
Only now did Lin Xiao know what was missing between his and Huo Mochen, and what was missing was a passion like this. Although Mo Chen would accompany her, she had never been able to affect his emotions, and it could even be said that the relationship between her and Huo Moting was just one.
Lin Xiao felt her heart ache for a bit, and subconsciously got rid of Huo Mochen from holding her hand. It was also this action that brought Huo Mochen back to reality, and then, without any rejection, grabbed onto Lin Nuo's hand.
"What a coincidence. Director Huo, you are also here shopping." Zhong Qing stepped forward to greet her, she was very polite to her, and no one would think that she was inappropriate, but Lin Xiao felt that it was strange, "This must be Mrs Huo, right? I thought it was beautiful at the wedding. " Zhong Qing laughed and said.
