Chapter 242 A request
"I really want to know?" Gu Henzhi's voice raised slightly.
"Yeah." Shen Mian nodded, then remembered that he couldn't see her movements, so she responded again.
If it were in the past, she would never be someone who would ask such a question casually.
Firstly, there has never been anything related to love and love in her life. On the other hand...it's not that she is shy. She can directly tell the other person that she likes him without blushing or gasping, but she can ask the other person if he likes her. It's not that she likes herself, but it's not that easy for her.
Perhaps it's because it's easy to expose one's own emotions, which is equivalent to giving the initiative to the other party.
However, since this question has just been asked, of course I want to get an answer.
After all, she may not even know when she will have the courage to ask this next time.
"..." Gu Henzhi thought for a moment and then slowly said: "For many years before, I never declared 'like' to my mouth. Perhaps it is because I feel that this word is particularly solemn to me. For the future For me, it will probably become a very important moment. So... I don’t want to hastily say anything high-sounding on this occasion."
As Shen Mian listened, her eyes dimmed slightly.
"When the freshmen league is over, I will tell you my answer in person." Gu Henzhi said with a gentle look on his face that cannot be ignored.
Shen Mian didn't notice that when he said the word "face to face", his tone became slightly more serious, with a solemnity that only he knew.
For him, these words are actually not very suitable for the current "Gu Henzhi" and "Mianmian". Besides, such words must of course be said face to face. As Gu Qingjing, she is with her truest self. …
He believes that this day will come soon!
"...Okay." Although Shen Mian felt a little disappointed, she was not unable to accept his answer.
Maybe it's his special sense of ritual?
However, even so, she vaguely knew his answer, and because of his solemnity, it made her happier. At least her nerves, which had been slightly tense since she just asked the question, have now relaxed.
"As compensation, do you allow me to make a request that is within my ability today?"
Gu Henzhi naturally heard the slightly depressed mood in Shen Mian's tone, so he tried to add something.
"Really?" Shen Mian's eyes suddenly lit up. "Then... let's give our classmate Gu an homework." She deliberately lengthened her voice.
"Homework?" Gu Henzhi was sure from her tone that this was definitely "premeditated" rather than "improvised".
"Although you are quite good as a boyfriend now, there is no end to learning. On the road to becoming good, you have to believe that there is still room for improvement. So...I will give you a book later and you have to read it. ! Just... as compensation for how you perfunctory me today." She said, her tone a little faster, obviously with some guilt.
Book...?...
Gu Henzhi was stunned for a moment and recalled the two special experiences before. Even if he didn't see the name of Mianmian's so-called "book", he felt that he should be able to make a rough guess.
Is this really a habit that becomes natural?
However, it just so happens that he is now very interested in books like this. In other words, he was originally looking for where the influence of these books on him came from.
The specific location of Mianmian may be determined from the source of this book.
Thinking like this, he quickly responded: "Okay."
"Then what are you waiting for? There are some good places on the main star. Let's go shopping! We may not see each other for at least a few days in the future. To be fair, as compensation, I can also agree to your request!" Shen Mian's tone became brisk. A lot.
Having said that, she knew that depending on Lenghenzhi's temper, she probably wouldn't make any excessive demands.
He is not very old, but in some aspects, he is still a little bit old-school.
"Anything is okay?" he suddenly asked.
"...Hmm." Shen Mian's original confidence was a little uneasy by his sudden question.
Does this mean you really want her to do something?
There was a two-second pause before she responded, but now that the words had been spoken, Gu Henzhi pretended not to hear the question.
He chuckled softly: "It won't be beyond your ability. Why do you feel a little nervous? Or did you think of something... something you shouldn't have thought about?" He deliberately misinterpreted her meaning.
"Gu Henzhi!"
Well, it seems that she has no intention of changing back to the title "boyfriend" today.
Gu Henzhi thought this way, since this is the case: "Keep this request for now, I will ask you for it later, but you must ensure that you keep your word. I have made a request, do you dare to agree?"
"Why not?" Shen Mian answered quickly this time.
"That's good." Gu Henzhi seemed to be relieved, but the smile in his eyes overflowed.
In fact, he had already thought about what he could get in exchange for this "promise" the first time she said this. As someone who often appears on the opposite side of the negotiation table, it is early for him to obtain greater benefits for himself at the right time. It's just something he's used to.
In contrast, Shen Mian stared into his eyes for two seconds through the phone screen.
Why does she feel like she just dug a hole for herself?
…
The next evening.
The sun slowly sets from the hillside. As the sky gets darker, the street lights on both sides of the road suddenly become brighter after flashing twice. But because there are relatively few people passing by, and the distance between street lights The distance is a bit far. The whole road still looks a bit dim.
On a relatively remote road, a man was driving a car on the road.
The body of the van looked very worn out, but it drove fairly smoothly.
The driver opened the window, holding a cigarette in one hand, and placed the other hand skillfully on the steering wheel. From time to time, after taking a puff of the cigarette, he would stretch the hand holding the cigarette out of the window and dust himself off. Soot.
The evening breeze blew in through the car window and brushed the cheeks of the other people in the car.
Shen Mian was tied up and lying in the back seat of the car, with her eyes closed but her brain very clear. The conversation between the driver in the front seat of the car and the man next to her clearly appeared in her ears.
"Brother Xiao, let's close the window. Now is the time when the investigation is strict. If those people say one thing and do another, they turn against them and we are arrested again, we will be the unlucky ones. ! It doesn’t have much to do with others. So today’s matter is still too dangerous!” The young man on the passenger seat said with a frown.
The man sitting in the driver's seat exhaled a puff of smoke: "You brat is too cowardly! There is only one person left. As long as the ritual is completed, what will happen even if they come to check? What can they find out? What's more? , those guys from the Criminal Police Brigade, now that they can’t even protect themselves, how can they have the time to care about other people’s lives?”
Only one person is missing...the ceremony...the criminal police brigade...
A large amount of information poured into Shen Mian's mind at the same time.
Chapter completed!
