Chapter 223 Goodbye: The vitality girl is completely different from the other two, how could she be

"..."

After the news about Gu Huaian was sent, it fell into obscurity.

V-mail does not have a read function. It was reported online some time ago that it was about to be released, but netizens scolded it back. Who would use this crappy software if they don’t leave any privacy at all?

Gu Huaian didn't know if Shang Zhuoyan saw it. It was not too early at this time, it was already past ten o'clock in the evening. Gu Huaian wondered if she had fallen asleep.

"Pour some water..."

Gu Ma asked Gu Huaian to make some water for her tea. The tea was given by others. Although he is a rookie in the industry, Gu Huaian has received a lot of gifts this year. Many of them are from artists in the same company. Some of them are singers. Think about it. Once you have a good relationship with Gu Huaian, if you get a chance to make a song or something, it will become popular in no time.

"oh."

Gu Huaian put down his cell phone and poured a cup of tea for his biological mother. Their ancestral tradition was to use cups to make tea, which was not particular at all.

Tea is being brewed here...

"Ding dong..."

Over there, a message notification sound came.

After Gu Huaian poured tea for his mother, he walked over, picked it up and looked at it, and Shang Zhuoyan replied.

Her reply was pale and weak, with only two simple words. She said:

"not good."

Gu Huaian thought there was more to come, but in the past few minutes, she didn't send any more messages.

It's just...not good.

When he saw these two words, Gu Huaixin trembled. At that moment, he felt quite guilty. Maybe Shang Zhuoyan's recent state was not entirely because of him, but he had made a start, and there was no Shang Zhuoyan like him. Yan may not have reached this stage...

He always felt that he had a big responsibility in it.

And just at this time...

"Ding dong."

Shang Zhuoyan sent him another message.

That's...a positioning.

When he saw the location, Gu Huaian was stunned for a moment, and immediately clicked on it to check it out. Unexpectedly, he discovered that the location Shang Zhuoyan sent him was a hotel in their urban area.

"???"

Gu Huaian replied with a series of questions, and after a while, Shang Zhuoyan replied:

"I'm right here."

His eyes suddenly widened. Gu Huaian was a little surprised and couldn't help but send a message asking:

"Didn't you say you were celebrating the New Year at home?"

"..."

Shang Zhuoyan replied with a series of ellipses, as if she didn't want to explain.

Maybe she felt that the text was a bit too pale.

Now it was Gu Huaian's turn to be in trouble. To be honest, he really didn't expect Shang Zhuoyan to be in the city where his home is. Today is New Year's Eve, and she is here...

Although she didn't say anything, Gu Huaian felt as if she was here for him, which made Gu Huaian feel inexplicably stressed.

"Are you alone? Or do you come to work?" Gu Huaian sent another message asking.

If he has someone to accompany him at work, then he shouldn't be too sentimental, but if he is alone...

"Myself."

Shang Zhuoyan replied like this.

"really……"

Gu Huaian held his forehead silently, feeling a little headache. To be honest, he didn't want and shouldn't have any more trouble with Shang Zhuoyan, but...

She had been having such a hard time recently and was in such bad shape. On the night of New Year's Eve, she was still in the city where Gu Huaian was staying. The lights outside were everywhere and every household was warm and happy. How could he bear to discuss Zhuoyan alone in the hotel? room to stay?

"I'll go find you."

In the end, Gu Huaian couldn't hold it back. He was not indecisive. Even if it was from the perspective of friends, even if an ordinary friend was alone in a hotel near his home during the New Year, he would care about it.

A person should act with a clear conscience. That was how Gu Huaian rejected Shang Zhuoyan that night, and the same is true when he went to see Shang Zhuoyan tonight.

For both emotional and rational reasons, he should go.

"Don't come."

Shang Zhuoyan replied:

"I don't want to cause you any more trouble because of me."

Today is not the first day she came to this city. She has been here for many days. She arrived less than half a month after New Year's Day. She also knew that Gu Huaian was at home. On the 29th of the year, he went home to celebrate the New Year and was on the hot search...

But she didn't want to disturb Gu Huaian anymore. She knew that she would cause trouble to Gu Huaian. Gu Huaian was living a good life now, and he and Pei Jingshu were also very good. If there were any scandals with her, she would really feel sorry for him.

She came here just to say goodbye to her relationship.

So she didn't send him a message, nor did she look for Gu Huaian. The reason for chatting today was purely because of a blessing message from Gu Huaian.

But you said she really didn't want Gu Huaian to find her?

How could that be possible...

She wanted to see Gu Huaian more than anyone else.

Especially in this lonely time.

Tonight is New Year's Eve, there is no one in the hotel, the food shops outside are closed, and she can't even order what she wants to eat, and she is still hungry...

The winter in Quancheng is very cold. This poor place is extremely hot, with temperatures reaching 40 degrees Celsius in summer, and temperatures as cold as minus 10 degrees Celsius in winter. She was not in a good condition, and was too afraid of catching a cold, so she did not want to go out to buy anything to eat.

When Gu Huaian came, he would definitely bring her some food, but she still refused...

God knows how heartbroken she felt when she rejected Gu Huaian's coming.

She would rather feel uncomfortable than cause trouble to Gu Huaian anymore.

I once felt that my tears had dried up in the past six months, but after sending the message, Zhuo Yan felt that the tip of her nose was sore and uncomfortable...

"You really don't want me to go?" Gu Huaian asked via message.

This time Shang Zhuoyan did not reply.

She really didn't know how she could reject Gu Huaian twice. She would never know...

"I want to eat meat."

After a long time, she finally softened her heart and sent a message saying:

"I haven't eaten anything today. I can't buy anything to eat outside."

Of course, many shops are closed on New Year's Eve. Even if they are open, they are on duty and there are no real shops. Who doesn't go home to celebrate the New Year?

"Wait, then."

Gu Huaian sighed. Fortunately, their family stewed a lot of meat for the Chinese New Year. There were still packed dumplings, pig's trotters, sausages, fried goods, etc. in the refrigerator...

He ordered some dumplings, packed a pig's trotters, a few sausages, some fried lotus root, fried hairtail, etc., put on a thick down jacket, wrapped a mask and went out.

"Why are you going at this point..."

When Gu Ma saw him going to the kitchen at first, she thought the boy was hungry and wanted to eat. Who knew that he was going out after cleaning up.

"Find a friend and go to bed early. I don't know what time I will be back."

Gu Huaian said casually and went out. Some of their classmates would occasionally get together to play cards and chat in the evenings when they were young. It was normal, but Gu's mother didn't expect that he would go out on New Year's Eve...

But she was quite relieved about Gu Huaian. This guy had a sense of propriety, so let him go.

After going downstairs, Gu Huaian went straight to the underground garage and drove out.

In the second half of the year, Gu Huaian bought a car, a BMW SUV worth more than 400,000 yuan. It was not expensive for him. It was used for transportation in small cities and for home use. He didn't drive it much, and it was usually used by Gu's mother.

When he was going out, Gu Huaian didn't notice that he was walking in front of his car, but a car behind him followed him...

On New Year's Eve, there are not many people even on the national highway. Chinese people are very aware of the New Year. On this day, they will choose to go home to celebrate the New Year. It is New Year's Eve in the evening, how many people go out at this time?

Gu Huai'an wanted to take the elevated highway easily. To be honest, Gu Huai'an had driven to the city before, but this was the first time he walked on the elevated highway and couldn't see a single car.

He released the accelerator and drove wildly. The navigation showed that it was more than two hours away, but he was surprised to arrive in less than an hour and a half.

If you don't drive in the middle of the night, you will never feel that this city is so smooth.

Occasionally, Gu Huaian would find a car following him, but after getting off the elevated road, the car turned a corner, so he didn't pay much attention.

"Ding dong dong..."

While on the way, Gu Huaian received a call. It was from Pei Jingshu.

It seemed that she had just finished the performance and saw the blessing message from Gu Huaian backstage, so she thought of making a phone call to wish her a happy birthday.

However, Gu Huaian was driving. When he answered the phone, he only said that he was going to meet a friend to play cards or something, and then hung up after chatting for a few words.

Pei Jingshu definitely didn't think much about it. She had always believed in Gu Huaian, and it wasn't like Gu Huaian didn't tell her. It was mainly because she had said it...

Afraid of her misunderstanding.

"Ding dong."

On the way, Shang Zhuoyan also sent a message to Gu Huaian, saying:

"Why don't you come? It doesn't matter to me, really."

Gu Huaian was helpless. We were halfway there and all the food was packed. How could we return the same way?

He didn't reply. He only asked Shang Zhuoyan's room number after arriving at the place and getting off the car.

After getting the room number, Gu Huaian went upstairs to the room where she was, raising his hand to knock on the door...

Before that, his hand suddenly paused.

To be honest, Gu Huaian doesn't know what will happen if he goes in now. Maybe he and Shang Zhuoyan will break up on bad terms like last time. He doesn't really want to cause her any more harm. He actually doesn't know what will happen now. You can choose to put down the dinner you brought and send her a message to tell her to leave, which is considered caring...

But.

Gu Huaian couldn't bear it when he recalled the extremely thin Shang Zhuoyan he saw on the Internet and how humble she was when chatting with him today.

She is such a proud, confident, and cheerful girl. She should never have become like this, and she should never have spent the Chinese New Year alone in a strange city.

Thinking of this, Gu Huaian no longer hesitated...

"Dong dong dong..."

Raise your hand to knock on the door.

"Click."

There was a sound of slippers running quickly in the room, and after a while, the door opened.

To be honest, the moment he saw Shang Zhuoyan, Gu Huaian almost burst into tears at the tip of his nose...

In my impression, Shang Zhuoyan is a girl who is a little fat and fleshy. She always looks hot when she wears clothes. She likes to dye her hair into various colors and tie her hair in various pigtails, like a doll. Her pretty face is always filled with a heartless smile, and the tear mole at the corner of her eye looks very attractive...

But now.

She lost a lot of weight.

Perhaps the two brothers Xiong Daxiong are still holding on to their position. The buttocks that Gu Huaian photographed have not gone away. Female celebrities are always good at losing weight. They lose weight in the places where they should lose weight and keep the fat in certain places without losing it.

But she has really lost a lot of weight elsewhere...

It seems that the ribs can be seen in the belly, and the legs are even more exaggerated. The beautiful legs that were originally a little fleshy are now like two chopstick legs.

Of course, the most obvious thing is the face...

She used to have a bit of baby fat, but now her jawline has slimmed down, making her look a bit thin and out of shape. Because she didn't wear makeup, you can see some obvious dark circles around her eyes.

The thick hair is no longer of various colors, but all dyed back to black.

The ever-changing girl from before seemed completely different from the "standard" female star in front of her.

To be honest, Gu Huaian didn't dare to recognize him when he first met...

I felt quite distressed when I saw it on a hot search before. Usually the camera will make people fat, and those who are thin in front of the camera will be even thinner in reality.

The Shang Zhuoyan who appeared in front of Gu Huaian now was even thinner than what he saw on the hot search...

When she was a little fleshy, her big watery eyes would be very strange. Now that she has lost weight, her eyes will look very pitiful and dry...

"Why...why are you staring at me like that?"

After opening the door, looking at Gu Huaian, who was wrapped in a thick down jacket and wearing a mask, staring at him, Shang Zhuoyan was still a little embarrassed and lowered her head silently.

She stared down at her toes, pursed her lips slightly, and said:

"Do I... look pathetic?"

If she hadn't seen the hot search, she wouldn't have known how she would have ended up like this.

"No...who said you were pitiful."

Gu Huaian calmed down his emotions for a moment, then shook the dinner in his hand and said:

"Won't you invite me in?"

Shang Zhuoyan smiled reluctantly and asked:

"Are you sure you want to come in? I'm not forcing you this time."

When she said this, she would raise her head and stare directly at Gu Huaian. She had said everything she wanted to say that night. She would not do something that had failed again, and there was no hope. She doesn't have to fight anymore.

"Then I can't just throw my things away and leave, right?"

Gu Huaian was helpless and said:

"You think of me as a delivery boy?"

Your delivery boy goes out to deliver food on New Year's Eve, and he has to deliver it dozens of kilometers away?

Shang Zhuoyan smiled. She rolled her eyes at Gu Huaian and stopped being pretentious. She stepped aside and invited Gu Huaian to come in...

The room was a suite, with all facilities inside. Maybe it was because she didn't have an assistant. Shang Zhuoyan's clothes were a little messy, but there was no trash in sight. She still liked to be clean after all.

Picking up a few scattered clothes, she said:

"Sit wherever you like..."

Gu Huaian took off his down jacket, put the food he brought on the table, and asked casually:

"Why are you here? Didn't you say you were going home to celebrate the New Year?"

If it hadn't been for the conversation tonight, he would have thought that Shang Zhuoyan was still busy at work.

"……do not wanna go Home."

After a moment of silence, Shang Zhuoyan smiled bitterly and said bitterly:

"I feel like I'm not in a very good condition, and I'm worried that my family will be worried."

She was on the trending search topic because of her extreme weight loss some time ago, so her family called her to ask her what was going on. She was afraid that her family would be worried. Shang Zhuoyan said that the company asked her to lose weight, and that losing weight was not a big deal. It was easy to reassure her. Got off my family...

It's easy to say it on the phone, it's light-hearted, but that's because you can't see it.

Once you see her, you will know that she is not just losing weight, but her overall condition is also very poor...

So she didn't dare go home during the Chinese New Year, so she told her family that she was busy with work. Anyway, she was often busy during the Chinese New Year in previous years, so it was common for her not to go back.

"..."

Gu Huaian was silent for a while, then helped her open the lunch box of dumplings, placed it in front of her and said:

"Then why didn't you go to work?"

"...I don't want to go."

Shang Zhuoyan shook her head. She was sitting there, wearing a simple pink tight-fitting long-sleeved shirt and white pants. There was a heater in the room and it was very warm. She would not be cold even if she was dressed like this.

she says:

"The company saw that I was in poor condition and asked me to rest for a while. After finishing the concert, I was out of work for a few days."

In recent times, she has almost no work except for some necessary endorsements, advertisements and activities.

Refrigeration is not enough. The company just asked her to take advantage of the new year to adjust her condition. There will be no less work after the new year.

Saying...

She picked up a dumpling with the chopsticks handed over by Gu Huaian. It was stuffed with leek, pork and vermicelli. It had a very familiar taste. Gu Huaian had made it before and she had eaten it before.

"Did Auntie pack it?" she asked.

"Um."

Gu Huaian nodded. He sat opposite Shang Zhuoyan, wearing a black thickened sweatshirt and a pair of loose trousers, looking very casual.

"It looks much better than your bag..."

Shang Zhuoyan complained at first, then lowered her head and ate several of them, but she seemed to swallow slowly and her cheeks were always bulging.

"Delicious."

She said a little unclearly.

In fact, if she had eaten such delicious dumplings in the past, she would dance happily and shake her head, but now she just eats silently and reluctantly.

"So you haven't answered me yet, why are you here."

Gu Huaian held back his heartache and wanted to ask this question first.

"..."

Shang Zhuoyan, who was still eating dumplings, suddenly stopped chewing. Her cheeks were bulging like a squirrel.

She lowered her head and did not look at Gu Huai'an. She just picked up a glass of water and drank it gently, trying her best to swallow the food in her mouth first...

A few moments.

When she finally stopped being choked and panicked, she calmed down her emotions and said jokingly:

"It's just... I have no place to go, so I just happened to come here."

"..."

Gu Huaian didn't speak, just stared at Shang Zhuoyan, as if to say, can you tell the truth?

"what……"

Being stared at by him like this, Shang Zhuoyan felt a little guilty, and her eyes slowly became moist for some reason. She didn't want this...

Try to restrain yourself. After a while, she whispered:

"Pei Jingshu and Sister Xilin have both been here. I just... just want to come and see this... city where you are, and I have no intention of pestering you..."

After saying that, maybe because she was afraid that Gu Huaian wouldn't believe it, she glanced at Gu Huaian and actually added:

"Really...really not..."

When she said this, she could no longer hold back, and her voice was already crying at the end of her words. After she finished speaking, tears flowed down uncontrollably from her big eyes.

She didn't know why she was so humble.

She has seen a lot of hot searches about Gu Huaian in the past six months, and the chatter is always excessive. It also knows that she likes Gu Huaian, so it always pushes a lot of Gu Huaian-related news to her.

From July when Pei Jingshu followed Gu Huaian home, to October when Su Yuntang and Sister Xilin came here to record a show with him...

She knows it all.

Gu Huaian even single-handedly promoted tourism in this city.

It's the end of the year. She has been given a holiday by her company and has no job. She is afraid that her family will be worried and dare not go home. Others are celebrating the New Year and it is not easy for her to go find friends. She can stay in the apartment in Shanghai, so she might as well come here. , I want to see the city where Gu Huaian grew up...

She swore that she really just wanted to take a look. She didn't even think of sending a message to Gu Huaian. Even when Gu Huaian sent a group message for New Year blessings, she just replied with "Happy New Year"...

It was because they started chatting, and because Gu Huaian asked her if she was okay, that she finally couldn't hold back and told Gu Huaian.

She admitted that she might have thought about asking Gu Huaian to come when she sent out the position, but she regretted it after sending the position. It was not because she was afraid that Gu Huaian would reject her again, but because she no longer had any relationship with Gu Huaian after the last time. Confident, she is no longer so enthusiastic, she is just afraid, afraid of him...

Afraid that he would underestimate himself.

How could she be a woman without dignity?

"You...can you leave?"

She raised her two skinny hands to cover her eyes, crying and wiping her tears, and said:

"Go away, don't come, hurry...go..."

What she wants is for the man in front of her to sincerely say that he likes her. It doesn't matter if he doesn't say it. At worst, they'll break up, but at least he won't pity her. He really doesn't.

She agreed that Zhuoyan should be strong throughout her life and never need pity from others.

If you like Shang Zhuoyan, go give her some likes.

She deserves it.

In addition, I would like to say that those who left before have suffered a great loss because they will never see the wonderful things about Shang Zhuoyan.

I will not change this chapter no matter how unacceptable it is to anyone, because this is what Shang Zhuoyan should be.
