Chapter 279: Revealing Guo Linze's Thoughts
Chapter 279: Revealing Guo Linze's Thoughts
The first day of school soon arrived. Unexpectedly, on the first day of school, Xia Songlan’s office welcomed an unexpected guest.
When she finished class and returned to the office, she saw Guo Linze sitting at her desk, waiting for her.
Teacher Lin, who was sitting across from her, smiled and said, "Comrade, I've been waiting for you for a whole class."
After saying that, Teacher Lin took the textbook and went to class.
Guo Linze had already stood up from his seat, "The get out of class is over, are you still used to being a teacher?
I remember that your dream before was to become a teacher. Although it is a little late to say it, I still congratulate you on achieving your wish."
Xia Songlan understood that Guo Linze was talking about the original owner's ideal.
In fact, her dream since childhood was to become a doctor, and now she has finally achieved her wish.
But being able to be both a teacher and a doctor means that both he and the original owner have achieved their wishes.
Xia Songlan took out a new glass from the drawer of her desk, cleaned it, poured hot water into it, and handed it to Guo Linze.
"Brother Lin Ze, this cup is new. Drink some water. What brings a busy person like you to my place?"
As the most loyal pursuer of the original owner in the book, Guo Linze's sudden appearance made Xia Songlan more vigilant.
She was afraid that the annoying plot would pop up again and affect her current life.
Guo Linze took the cup and said with a gentle smile: "Thank you for remembering that I don't like to use other people's cups.
We haven't seen each other for a while. I came here today to ask for your help. Let's have lunch together at noon!"
Xia Songlan remembered that the last time she met Guo Linze was when she went to Courtyard No. 6 before going abroad, and the two met by chance.
Ning Jingmo and the children were also there at the time. They simply greeted each other and parted ways without any further conversation.
I smiled and said, "Okay, I'll treat you today. There's a new Sichuan restaurant opened in the pedestrian street behind our school. Let's go eat hotpot."
Guo Linze, who was usually calm and composed, showed a cracked expression on his face.
Xia Songlan laughed happily, "Hahaha... I was just kidding you. I know Brother Lin Ze can't eat spicy food."
Guo Linze looked at Xia Songlan lovingly, "It's okay, just having a meal once in a while is fine."
Xia Songlan shook her head. "I don't want you to have diarrhea and vomiting, and Aunt Guo will come to me to argue with you."
The two chatted and laughed as they went to the pedestrian street behind the school. Xia Songlan was really just joking with Guo Linze and did not take him to the so-called Sichuan restaurant, but to a Cantonese restaurant.
I ordered the Buddha Jumps Over the Wall, which Guo Linze likes. "Jing Mo and I came here to eat once before. It's very authentic. How do you think it tastes?"
The two chatted for a while, and Xia Songlan brought the topic to the point, "Brother Lin Ze, what was that thing you just talked about?"
Guo Linze took out a book from his bag and said, "I know you have been in Country M for more than two years and you are very good at speaking Y. I was reading this book recently and found that the translation of some parts is not consistent with the original.
I just want to ask for your expert opinion."
Xia Songlan listened to Guo Linze's lame excuse and looked at him with a half-smile, "I remember that Brother Linze has been good at Y language since he was a child, and it seems that he specially chose Y language as his major in college.
If I remember correctly, your foreign language professor in your junior year was from Country M.
I remember seeing you talking to him fluently and without any obstacles. He also said that your pronunciation was standard and your vocabulary was rich. "
Guo Linze was a little panicked by Xia Songlan's uneasy look. He sighed and put the book on the corner of the table.
"Okay! I knew I couldn't lie to you, and I couldn't hide anything from you.
Here's what happened. Two days ago, I met Zhou Guoqing and a lesbian named Chen Qingqing.
Chen Qingqing reminded me that you are not living a happy life now, so I have the opportunity to comfort you."
Xia Songlan's heart trembled, "I don't know any Chen Qingqing, why would she say such a thing to you?"
Guo Linze was surprised. "But Chen Qingqing knows a lot about you. She said her mother and your grandfather are senior brothers and sisters, and you call him uncle."
Xia Songlan can now finally confirm that Chen Qingqing is actually Chen Qingqing.
She had never taken the time to find out Chen Qingqing's true identity before, but she didn't expect Guo Linze to reveal it with just one sentence.
He smiled bitterly and shook his head speechlessly.
Guo Linze immediately noticed something was wrong and asked with concern: "Do you know Chen Qingqing? Has she hurt you?"
Xia Songlan changed the subject and did not mention Chen Qingqing again, "Brother Lin Ze, how are you doing recently? What are you busy with?"
Guo Linze, who is usually very good at conversation, found that when he was with Xia Songlan, he could only be led by Xia Songlan in the conversation.
He was now extremely concerned about whether Xia Songlan was living an unhappy life as Chen Qingqing said, but Xia Songlan had already shifted the topic to him.
Guo Linze could only say: "The work at the newspaper is definitely not as hard as you doctors, and the hours are not so strict either."
Xia Songlan knew that he was a reporter at a daily newspaper, so she laughed and teased, "Did you take the opportunity of reporting news to come to me?"
Guo Linze rubbed his nose, revealing the embarrassment of being exposed, "Nothing can escape your sharp eyes.
Don't talk about me, let's talk about you!"
"I'm fine. Let's talk about your job. I'm curious about how journalists do their work."
Until the meal was almost over, Guo Linze still hadn't gotten anything out of Xia Songlan about the relationship between her and Chen Qingqing.
How could Chen Qingqing say those words?
I couldn't help feeling a little uneasy and didn't even eat a few bites of my meal.
Xia Songlan slowly finished the soup in her bowl and looked at Guo Linze, who was trying to hold back his words and was almost hurting himself.
“Brother Lin Ze, I am very happy, Jing Mo is very good to me, and the two children are even more caring.
I have no plans to get divorced in this life. I just want to grow old with Jing Mo like this."
Guo Linze nodded, "Jing Mo is a good comrade, I believe he will take good care of you."
Xia Songlan looked him straight in the eyes, "What about Brother Lin Ze? Brother Lin Ze, haven't you come out yet?
There is not only one crooked tree in the whole forest, there are many tall and beautiful trees waiting for you to find.
She will stand firmly beside you, accompany you through wind and rain, and greet every sunshine and dawn."
Xia Songlan was almost white, Guo Linze was stunned, and tried hard to cover the bitter smile on his lips, "I thought I hid it well, but I didn't expect that you had already noticed it.
I'm sorry, I don't want to affect your life, I will try not to appear in front of you in the future."
In fact, Xia Songlan had no idea of Guo Linze's love for the original owner or for her.
Because Guo Linze was so patient, he kept his love for the original owner deep in his heart and never showed it in the slightest.
He is always like a gentle older brother, who will come out to help the original owner when she needs him.
After helping, they will hide their achievements and fame and quietly retreat.
However, Xia Songlan is not the original owner. She knows the plot of the book and understands that Guo Linze's love is deep and forbearing.
She couldn't respond to Guo Linze's love, and she didn't want him to be bound by the plot. She hoped he could find his own happiness.
