Chapter 334

334 Saved me before

When Gu jinghang saw her red eyes, he immediately regretted saying the wrong thing. He quickly reached out to hug her. Ran, I shouldnt have said that.

Song ran struggled and pushed him away. Besides, what do you, Gu jinghang, have that is worthy of my sympathy? Youre the most promising researcher in the No. 2 Inst.i.tute, and even in the entire Central Research Inst.i.tute of Haicheng. Youre someone who can be called by the director. Youll have a bright future, and youll be successful. What do you have to deserve my sympathy?

Or do you think I pity you for your poor background? In your eyes, am I someone who simply uses money to divide people into different cla.s.ses? Gu jinghang, am I that kind of person?

Gu jinghang reached out and pulled her into his arms. no, no, ran, I was wrong. I shouldnt have asked you that.

Song ran struggled. I left my family behind and came all the way here to spend the new year with you. Do you think its because I feel sorry for you? Do I, song ran, have nothing better to do?

With that, she pushed him away, turned around, and rushed into the room.

With a loud bang, the door was slammed shut. Gu jinghang, who had rushed over, was met with a cold shoulder. He reached out to open the door but found that the lock had been locked.

He knocked on the door anxiously. Xiao ran, I was wrong. If youre angry, you can scold me, hit me, or bite me. But dont lock yourself up, okay?

It was quiet inside, which made him panic.

The room was well-lit, and the sun shone through the small window and onto the bed. Song ran sat on the floor with her back against the bed. She stared at the door that was being banged on loudly. Her mind was in a mess.

Sympathy?

Would she, song ran, date someone just because she pitied him?

She sympathized with the young master in shuangcha alley who only earned 20 cents a time for shaving, the beggar who lay on the ground all year round outside the foreign house area in Tianzi square, the uncle who came out with a wooden box of popsicles under the hot sun in the summer, and the old man who stood by the fire to sell sweet potatoes in the winter.

Why was she not with these people?

Why did Gu jinghang not think that she was with him because of love? she was with him because she loved him.

Gu jinghang knocked on the door for a while. He knew that song rans anger would not be appeased so easily. He had no other choice but to make lunch first. At least when she was no longer angry, he could still let her have a hot meal.

When he entered the kitchen, he really wanted to slap himself. He was so confident in front of others, in front of his own people, and even in front of the section chiefs, secretaries, and directors.

Why was it that when it came to song ran, he was always worried?

He cooked the rice dejectedly. As usual, he made mutton bones into soup and cut some beef and vegetables. He planned to stir-fry them after song ran calmed down.

He waited until past one o clock, but there was no movement from the door. The aroma of the mutton soup filled the air and the children were still playing in the courtyard. Gu jinghang was worried and ran to knock on the door again. He lowered his voice and said, Xiao ran, are you still angry? Even if youre angry, come out and have lunch first, okay?

There was no sound at all from the inside. Gu jinghang was worried and increased the strength he used to knock on the door. In the end, he almost cracked the door.

If you want to eat, then eat it yourself. Finally, he heard his Xiao rans voice from inside. He heaved a sigh of relief and said in a gentle voice, Xiao ran, you have to eat. You cant skip your meals just because youre angry with me. Its not good for your health.

There was no sound from inside again. Gu jinghang lowered his hands in embarra.s.sment and stood at the door.
