Gu Shiting stood by the car door.
At five in the afternoon, the sunlight shifted westward. The golden warm sun fell on him, giving his outline a faint golden edge.
He was about 1.85 ters tall, wearing a school uniform still making him stand out; his brow bone was slightly high, his eyes appeared deep, with a high nose bridge and thin lips, his skin very white, handso yet carrying a hint of adolescent awkwardness.
"Why are you here?" Sheng Tang was very surprised and walked towards him.
He had little expression on his face: "Thank you for saving that day." Thanking her for saving him and also for accompanying him.
Did he co all the way here just to say this?
Sheng Tang smiled: "No need to thank , your father already thanked , and even helped find my ho."
Gu Shiting looked down at his feet, reached into his trouser pocket, and took out an item, handing it to Sheng Tang.
Sheng Tang reached out to accept it.
It was a very ordinary white gold bracelet, without any diamonds, worth no more than a thousand yuan.
"...Maybe I accidentally took it off your hand, it later got hooked on my trousers, and you didn't notice it." Gu Shiting said.
He spoke slowly, his voice not loud, even barely looking at people.
Sheng Tang suddenly understood.
She thought, the Heir of Huishi, wanting to thank her, couldn't possibly give her such a shabby little jewelry.
"Thank you." Sheng Tang said.
She felt a bit unsure of how to interact with the shy young man, so she politely asked him: "This is my residential area, would you like to co in and sit down, maybe have dinner?"
Gu Shiting glanced at her.
Perhaps it was Sheng Tang's illusion, but at that mont, it seed he really wanted to go.
Then, he looked at the sun sinking in the west sky and shook his head: "No."
Sheng Tang rembered he was afraid of the dark and said: "It's getting late, I'll invite you for a al another day. You should go back now and be careful."
Gu Shiting nodded: "Goodbye."
"Wait a second."
Gu Shiting stopped.
"Which grade are you in?"
"Senior three."
Sheng Tang then waved: "Goodbye, senior."
Gu Shiting nodded. Although he didn't smile, his expression lacking, the politeness was conveyed.
Sheng Tang put the bracelet on and went ho.
Gu Shiting's car also drove away.
He sat alone, feeling empty.
The bracelet was initially worn on Sheng Tang's hand, during the ti he forcefully grabbed her hand, it accidentally ca off.
These past few nights he couldn't sleep even with the light on, feeling extrely uneasy. Gripping the bracelet tightly in his palm brought him back to reality, escaping those nightmares.
But it was soone else's possession after all.
Picking up a girl's small jewelry and secretly keeping it felt very sleazy.
Gu Shiting decided to return it to her.
He greeted her at school today, which drew so criticism towards her, thus he couldn't return it at the school gate.
Huishi student's information, as long as he wanted to check, he could. He specially found her ho address, ca early to wait, and indeed saw her.
Finished returning it, this matter was concluded.
But his heart remained endlessly forlorn.
Sheng Tang didn't know the internal drama of Mr. Gu. She also didn't take the bracelet seriously, recalling the mories from the morning, returned downstairs to her ho.
Coincidentally, she t her grandmother who returned from grocery shopping downstairs.
Grandmother smiled: "Today you got ho the latest. I'll cook your favorite sweet and sour ribs tonight."
She had the scent of old-fashioned snow cream, which old-fashioned won particularly loved, over the years, the sll soaked through her skin.
Like Sheng Tang's grandmother from before.
"Grandma is the best!" Sheng Tang acted spoiled and then helped her grandma carry the groceries.
