Quick Wear: Cannon fodder fly bravely, good fortune will always follow

Chapter 622 The cannon fodder in the substitute abuse story Bai Yueguang 47

Jiang Yueshu celebrated that birthday with him.

He was not together with Jiang Yueshu at that time.

Because of the irresponsible parents at home, he came to his grandmother's house full of disappointment and resentment, and then met Jiang Yueshu, who was as warm as the sunshine.

She would explain the questions to him gently and patiently, and would persuade him again and again without getting tired of it when he was scolding others impatiently.

She would bring him medicine when he was sick and uncomfortable, and would also re-inject his IV needle when he had it removed.

She would also praise him with a smile on her face when he got a question right or had breakfast on time.

Last year’s birthday was his most humble one, with only a bowl of longevity noodles made by Jiang Yueshu herself.

Not even cake.

There were only two of them.

But he knew that it was the best birthday gift Jiang Yueshu could give him.

He couldn't remember any of his birthdays in the past ten years. The only thing he could remember was the cold banquet hall and the business uncles who wore masks and flattered him all the time. He hated celebrating his birthday.

But that humble birthday made him feel particularly warm every time he thought about it.

She was one year older than him, and like a gentle sister, she guided him and took him to touch the warm fire that he dared not approach.

"Brother Yan?"

The smile on Qi Rui's face faded, and he stared blankly at Gu Yan with tears in his eyes, feeling a little overwhelmed.

The water stains dripping on the table further proved to him the authenticity of this scene.

'Gu Yan' actually cried?

He had never seen such a 'Gu Yan'.

Even when he first caught his parents hanging out with strange men and women, he didn't cry like this. He just raised his eyes full of resentment and smashed all the gifts in the room with a gloomy face.

There are his birthday presents and his award certificates and trophies.

But without exception, these things once carried his best expectations and feelings for his parents, and he treasured them.

But after the mask was torn off, he smashed all the false things to pieces, leaving no trace. He hated such parents.

He had never cried so weakly and powerlessly before. He looked like a poor abandoned child.

Qi Rui's heart sank slightly. He looked at Tang Mengmeng, who was also uneasy, and shook his head.

He didn't know whether Gu Yan's reaction at this time was because he remembered Jiang Yueshu in the past, or because of Tang Mengmeng in front of him. He didn't dare to guess because this was planned by him.

He thought, perhaps he underestimated Gu Yan's feelings for Jiang Yueshu.

Qi Rui pursed his lips and was about to speak to comfort her.

The person opposite suddenly stood up.

Then, he ran out in the surprised gaze of the two people.

"???"

"Ayan!"

Qi Rui's heart skipped a beat and he immediately ran over.

damn it!

'Gu Yan' wouldn't be so shocked that he would commit suicide, right?

At this moment, Qi Rui was worried and scared, and also felt dissatisfied and resentful towards Jiang Yueshu.

What on earth happened to her?

"Wait for me!"

Tang Mengmeng was caught off guard and left standing, looking at the simple birthday cake in front of her at a loss.

This is a cake she made herself.

Qi Rui said that sincerity is the key to success, so she made this cake with full sincerity, hoping that Gu Yan could have a happy birthday.

But he...actually ran away?

Did you do something wrong?

Tang Mengmeng hung her head, hesitated for a moment, took the candles off the cake and put them back into the box.

Then he chased after her with the box in his arms.

-

In the real world, the four of them were silent again.

Gu Yan was surprised at his own tears. He was not the NPC 'Gu Yan', so he didn't know why he was crying.

But he also knew very well that the NPC 'Gu Yan' was generated using all his behavioral and personality data, and 90% of his actions were possible for him to do.

Who was he thinking about when he cried?

The remaining three people felt a little confused.

"So... which situation are you talking about? Accepting it with pleasure? Not caring? Or rejecting it?"

Si Luobai couldn't understand Gu Yan's reaction and looked to Qi Rui for explanation.

"This is...indifferent, right?"

Qi Rui looked at Gu Yan's actions on the screen thoughtfully, "He is obviously being reminded of his past. According to our plot, Gu Yan and Jiang Yueshu were not together at this time last year? Did they celebrate their birthday together?"

Qi Rui looked at Gu Yan with an inquiring look.

Most of the early plot in the virtual world is filled in according to Gu Yan's memories. They only know that the two have been together for a short time and don't know Gu Yan's past memories.

Gu Yan came back to his senses and thought about it carefully.

"Yes, I remember she made me a bowl of longevity noodles, we were not together at that time."

Qi Rui nodded suddenly, "That's right. Maybe Meng Meng's imitation makeup just now was too similar, plus Qi Rui prepared clothes of the same style, which made Gu Yan recall last year's birthday."

-

in the virtual world.

'Gu Yan' ran back to the hotel, took out his cell phone, and his eyes fell on a familiar name.

Today is his birthday, will she send a message?

When Qi Rui rushed back, he saw the young man touching his phone with a dazed look on his face.

On the screen, Jiang Yueshu's name stood out particularly.

He really thought of Jiang Yueshu.

For a moment, he was a little annoyed about his arrangement. If he had known earlier, he would not have let Mengmeng imitate Jiang Yueshu's makeup tonight.

"Ayan, the bonfire party is about to start, and you haven't eaten yet, let's go together!"

He sat down next to him and tried his best to act as if nothing had happened.

A message was sent on the mobile phone.

Let Tang Mengmeng go back and remove her makeup first.

Gu Yan shook his head. He looked at Jiang Yueshu's name and murmured, "Today is my birthday. Do you think... will she send me a message?"

Qi Rui: "..."

He sighed in his heart, and then suppressed his impatience, "No. We are all on holiday today. Even if she has to work part-time, it is impossible for her to not spare some time. Even for lunch, she can spare time. But if she didn't send a message."

So... face the reality!

'Gu Yan' didn't say anything, but just opened his phone again and again to check the messages.

After a moment, he seemed to have made up his mind and chuckled.

"I even forgot my own birthday. She's so busy, she must have forgotten it too. Then I... will call her!"

Qi Rui: "..."

He opened his mouth to stop the other party, but after seeing Gu Yan's fragile expression, he shut up.

Forget it, it’s better to suffer a short pain than a long one.

Instead of trying to persuade him with all your heart, it’s better to let him hit the wall on his own.

At 4:40 in the afternoon, 'Gu Yan' called Jiang Yueshu.

At this moment, Jiang Yueshu was writing furiously in the college entrance examination room, thinking about her next plan, and the corners of her lips curled up slightly.

I completely forgot about Gu Yan's birthday.

The cell phone was also left in the orphanage because of the exam.

Even if he ran out of battery, he still couldn't get through.

"Beep beep..."

The phone rang again and again, but no one answered.

Qi Rui looked at Gu Yan, who was filled with sadness, and couldn't help but persuade him, "Don't call, you've called her five times and she didn't answer. No matter how many times you call, she won't answer!"

He recalled how Jiang Yueshu humiliated Gu Yan that day, and felt that Jiang Yueshu was too cruel.

I don’t know what high branch he has climbed to, but he is so cold and heartless. Is it okay even to answer a phone call?

He clenched his fists gloomily. If he knew about this, he would definitely destroy the other person's dream of marrying into a wealthy family.

Gu Yan just shook his head, "Maybe... maybe she is still working part-time and has no time to look at her phone. I'll wait a little longer..."

After saying that, he waited for the call to be hung up before calling again.

Qi Rui felt sour and angry when he saw this, so he went straight forward to grab the phone.

"Gu Yan! Are you done yet? She rejected you last time, saying that you were a poor guy pretending to be poor and could not give her the wealth and status she wanted! She doesn't like you! She lied to you from the beginning to the end, have you forgotten?"

Gu Yan raised his head and retorted.

"But a lie detector won't lie. She does like me. You were the one who forced her to question me in the hotel. She said she liked me, but she wasn't attracted by my family background or money. You asked these two questions yourself. Have you forgotten?"

Qi Rui paused, and remembered the truth or dare game in the hotel, his face suddenly turned ugly.

It was for this reason that 'Gu Yan' firmly believed that Jiang Yueshu had no feelings for him.

At that time, he just wanted to expose Jiang Yueshu's true face, but he didn't expect that this time he would shoot himself in the foot.

"I remember."

He nodded. "But I also asked professionals, and not all conclusions drawn by the polygraph are correct. Maybe... maybe she deliberately disguised it, using psychological suggestion, self-hypnosis, or creating pain to cover it up. Maybe she was specially trained..."

Gu Yan sneered, his IQ online.

"I was sitting next to her at the time, and every question you asked was random, and even I didn't know what you were going to ask. How on earth was she able to hypnotize herself and give psychological hints before she even knew your questions?"

"I……"

Qi Rui stammered and was unable to speak.

"It's even more impossible to cause pain. I remember that after she answered, you ran to her side to check. What did you find out?"

Qi Rui: "..."

"And what about special training? She is an orphan. When she was little, she did nothing but study and work. Who would train her? And what would she do after the training?"

Qi Rui was silent.

Gu Yan was not willing to give in. "Now that I think about it, Qi Rui, you have always had a problem with Shu Shu, right? The three friends you brought to the hotel that time, Jiang Jiang, Xiao Yue, and Shu Hua, were they really called these names? What are you hinting at?"

Qi Rui was forced to take a step back by Gu Yan. He explained, "Okay, I admit it. I do have a prejudice against Jiang Yueshu. I think she is really attracted by your family background and wealth, and I just want to test her."

"Testing her? Why? 'Qi Rui', are you jealous?"

Gu Yan stood up suddenly, staring straight into Qi Rui's eyes.

"Are you wondering why she chose me instead of you when your family background and wealth are no worse than mine? Isn't this enough to prove that she likes me?"

Qi Rui was so frightened that he paused, "What nonsense are you talking about? How could I like her? How could I be jealous? I did all this just to expose her true face!"

'Gu Yan': "Then tell me, are the results of the polygraph true?"
