After leaving home, they regretted it.

The doctor said that the patient was very tired.

"Sister Rumeng, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Qin Yi asked hurriedly.

"No... I'm fine..."

Gu Rumeng took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down.

"Do you still need to apply ice?"

Qin Yi asked cautiously.

Gu Rumeng hesitated for a while, and then her eyes seemed to have made a major decision: "Just apply ice!"

"Then I'll get a towel, Sister Rumeng, wait a moment."

Qin Yi quickly got up and ran to the bathroom.

Seeing this, Gu Rumeng took the opportunity to tidy up her hair, covered her hot ears, and then took deep breaths.

"I just asked Xiaoyi to help me apply some ice!"

"Don't think about it!"

"This is to recover faster, otherwise it's too inconvenient to do things with a sprained ankle every day!"

"Calm down! Calm down!"

As Gu Rumeng kept talking to herself, Qin Yi had already returned with a wet towel.

"Sister Rumeng, sit down and lift your foot slightly."

Qin Yi squatted in front of the sofa, and Gu Rumeng became nervous instantly. She unconsciously clenched the sofa cushion with both hands, and carefully lifted the sprained foot and placed it on the sofa.

Faintly, it seemed that there was a burst of hot air hitting the instep, rhythmically like breathing.

She couldn't figure out if it was her illusion, she only knew that her heart began to beat uncontrollably.

"Hiss..."

When the wet towel was attached to the red and swollen ankle, the instantaneous cold touch made Gu Rumeng unconsciously take a breath of cool air.

"Is it too cold?" Qin Yi asked quickly.

"No, no, it's very comfortable." Gu Rumeng quickly denied.

"That's good."

After applying the towel, all you have to do is wait quietly for fifteen minutes.

The huge living room fell into silence.

For some reason, Gu Rumeng suddenly felt a sense of loss in her heart.

But she was soon shocked by her absurd idea.

"What am I thinking about?!"

Gu Rumeng was so embarrassed that she wanted to slap herself.

She felt that she must have been influenced by Kong Xinrui!

Otherwise, why would she have such a disappointed thought because she didn't... get touched on the feet by Xiaoyi tonight!

"Sister Rumeng, why is your face red?" Qin Yi asked with a frown.

"Ah? Ah!"

Gu Rumeng reacted and said in a panic: "It's because the weather is too hot! Xiaoyi, go open the window a little, and turn on the TV by the way, otherwise it will be too boring!"

"Oh oh!"

Qin Yi didn't think much about it, got up to open the window a little, and then turned back and turned on the TV.

Gu Rumeng took this opportunity to fiddle with her hair, trying to cover her hot cheeks.

"Sister Rumeng, aren't you very hot? Why do you cover your face so tightly with your hair?" Qin Yi asked again.

"Ah... It's because I didn't apply skin care products today. It's a bit windy outside, and I'm afraid that the dust blowing in will affect my skin!" Gu Rumeng lied again.

"Is that so..." Qin Yi nodded, thinking about it.

Seeing this, Gu Rumeng was suddenly very nervous.

Could it be that her lie was too absurd and Xiaoyi saw through it?

No! Don't do it!

Gu Rumeng prayed in her heart, and at the same time, her eyes were darting around, trying to find a way to divert Qin Yi's attention.

Got it!

Soon, Gu Rumeng found her target.

She leaned forward, picked up the remote control on the coffee table, randomly switched to a channel, and then turned up the volume.

"Qin Yi, let's watch TV. You study so hard all day, you have to relax your brain!"

After saying that, Gu Rumeng quickly turned her eyes to the TV screen.

But she never expected that the channel she randomly switched to was playing a love movie, and it was a close-up of the male and female protagonists kissing!

When she saw the content on the screen clearly, she was stunned.

Qin Yi, who was standing next to her, also noticed this scene and touched his nose awkwardly.

Gu Rumeng reacted and quickly switched the channel.

The picture on the screen returned to normal, but Gu Rumeng gradually found something wrong.

This seems to be another love movie?

And it seems to be about a sister-brother relationship?

Just as she was about to react, the male and female protagonists on the screen suddenly confessed to each other, and Gu Rumeng was so scared that she hurriedly turned off the TV with the remote control.

"Why do you always play love movies these days?"

"Can you play some

Having connotation and thoughts is conducive to the growth of young people! "

Gu Rumeng pretended to be calm and complained, but she couldn't help but sneak a glance at Qin Yi to observe his reaction.

Seeing that Qin Yi did not show any abnormality, Gu Rumeng was slightly relieved.

"Sister Rumeng."

Qin Yi's sudden call made Gu Rumeng's heart, which had just relaxed, hang in her throat again.

"Ah, what's wrong?"

Gu Rumeng asked with a pretended calmness.

"Actually... I have a few things to ask you today."

Qin Yi's eyes were complicated, and he remembered what Chen Jinghui said to him at school this afternoon.

To be honest, he was not suspicious of Gu Rumeng, but curious.

After all, the incident about Zhou Nianwei was too strange.

He really wanted to find out whether Sister Rumeng was really as Chen Jinghui said, seemingly just an ordinary person on the surface, but actually very important.

"What's the matter? Ask it. "

Gu Rumeng looked calm on the surface, but she was so nervous that she almost suffocated.

She was worried that Qin Yi had seen some clues.

If Xiaoyi really wanted to ask about love affairs...

How should she answer?

What should I do?!

"Sister Rumeng."

Qin Yi took a deep breath, and Gu Rumeng unconsciously clenched her trouser legs.

"At noon, a female student named Zhou Nianwei in our school attempted suicide. You have seen her. She is the girl who slandered me that day."

As soon as these words came out, Gu Rumeng was stunned.

In the short interval of a few seconds just now, she almost thought of all the excuses that could cover up her abnormal behavior and perfunctorily deal with the questions about love affairs.

But she never expected... that what Qin Yi wanted to ask was such an irrelevant thing.

Oh my God...

What on earth was I thinking about just now!

Embarrassment and shame surged in her heart, and Gu Rumeng wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into!

"Sister Rumeng? ”

Seeing that there was no response for a long time, Qin Yi couldn't help but called out softly.

"Ah? Oh! I was a little distracted just now!"

Gu Rumeng reacted and touched her nose awkwardly, "You just said that a girl in the school attempted suicide at noon, right?"

"Yes."

"Well... Actually, I knew about this at noon."

Gu Rumeng hesitated a little, and finally asked: "If, I mean if... This matter is related to someone you know, and this person has a good relationship with you, will you hate her for this?"

"No." Qin Yi answered quickly.

"Why?" Gu Rumeng asked.

Qin Yi answered slowly:

"First of all, this matter is ultimately Zhou Nianwei's own fault."

"If she didn't do that slander incident, the things that affected her family wouldn't fall on her head."

"Secondly, someone told me when I was a child that most people in this world are double-standard. ”

“I happen to be one of them.”

“And as the saying goes, you should help your relatives instead of the people who are not your friends.”

“If the person who forced Zhou Nianwei to jump off the building is really on good terms with me, then I will choose to turn a blind eye, not to mention hating her.”

“Even if she gets into trouble because of this, I will do everything I can to help her.”

Speaking of this, Qin Yi paused and looked into Gu Rumeng's eyes: "Sister Rumeng, do you hate people with double standards?"

“Of course not.”

Gu Rumeng smiled, "Because I am actually a very hypocritical person."

“So, was it actually done by Sister Rumeng?" Qin Yi asked.

“How should I put it... It is inseparable from me, but my original intention was just to let her learn a lesson and pay the price she deserves, and I didn't intend to force her to that point. Fortunately, things did not develop towards the worst result in the end." Gu Rumeng sighed helplessly.

“Well, I believe you. "Qin Yi's expression was extremely serious.

"I haven't explained the reason in detail yet, and you are helping your relatives instead of your reason?" Gu Rumeng said half-jokingly.

"I can't help it. Who made me a double-standard person?" Qin Yi grinned.

"You..."

Gu Rumeng shook her head with a smile.

Thinking about it, if it were me, how could I not trust Xiaoyi unconditionally?

"Sister Rumeng, I am curious about something else."

"Ask whatever you want to ask."

"How did you influence Zhou Nianwei's parents' work?"

"This..." Gu Rumeng hesitated for a moment, "Do you remember the story I told you last time?"

"Yes! I remember everything!"

"The root of my ability to do this comes from my father."

Hearing this answer, Qin Yi was surprised.

If I remember correctly... Sister Rumeng

My father clearly...

"It's strange, isn't it? My father abandoned his wife and daughter many years ago and started a new family outside. How could he be related to me again?"

Gu Rumeng showed a bitter smile on her face,

"The matter probably dates back to the second year after Aunt Gu passed away. At that time, my father suddenly came to this old street to find me."

"It was not until that day that I knew the reason why my father abandoned his wife and daughter."

"Do you remember what I said, when I was very young, he took the money borrowed from relatives at home and went to other places to do business?"

"He was really serious about doing business at that time."

"But due to lack of experience and unfamiliarity with the place, he was cheated of all his money in the first month."

"He was cheated of everything and had no money to go home. He also felt that he had no face to go home, so he continued to stay in Jinghua City."

"It was precisely because of that stay that he encountered the biggest turning point in his life."

"A woman named Xia."
