After traveling back, I became a group favorite

Chapter 195 195. A Corner of the Gradually Revealed Truth

On Gu Qingcheng's side, the family enjoyed themselves happily, but she forgot that there was another person waiting for her.

When Gu Wenjin pushed open the door of Gu's house, as soon as the thunder and lightning fell from behind him, the reflected light illuminated his whole body.

The pouring rain made him drenched all over, his gloomy gaze just happened to meet Gu Qingcheng, who was wrapped in a towel and humming after taking a bath.

"Ah!" Gu Qingcheng was most afraid of ghosts, and Gu Wenjin happened to have a fierce expression, which scared her to hide behind the sofa and dare not come out.

"If Qing Jiu hadn't told me, how long would you want to keep it from me?"

Seeing her like this, Gu Wenjin probably lost his anger at looking for her in the heavy rain just now. While sighing helplessly, he took off his wet suit jacket and changed into a clean coat.

The two sat on the sofa in silence. After a while, Gu Qingcheng approached him a little bit, and tentatively said:

"Well, are you... still angry?"

"Ah—" Gu Wenjin sighed and glanced at her:
"What do you say?"

Originally, Gu Qingcheng had closed her eyes, ready to face the coming accusation, but she heard the other party say:

"It's not that I don't want you to come back. I didn't tell other people about your return. It's just that I didn't think about what kind of excuse I should find to convince others—but, forget it, as long as you come back .”

"You—" Gu Qingcheng looked at him blankly, then felt the temperature around his body a little cold, and sneezed:

"Ah!"

"The temperature in the hall is low, go back to the bedroom."

After speaking, Gu Wenjin got up and left.

Although the light in the living room was very low, only the fire in the fireplace was still burning, but Gu Qingcheng still keenly caught the blush behind Gu Wenjin's ears when he left.

Gu Qingcheng blinked and didn't know what to say when a trace of heat came from his side.

Turning back, it was Gu Qingjiu handing over the hot milk.

There was still some embarrassment and uneasiness in her tone, obviously she was handing over a cup of hot milk, but her eyes were not here:

"There is nothing else in the refrigerator. I warmed it up a bit, so let's drink it."

Gu Qingcheng took it happily, and called out sweetly:
"Thank you Baby."

Gu Qingjiu's ears turned red unconsciously, and she urged impatiently:
"Go to sleep after drinking."

Ignoring Gu Qingcheng's expression, Gu Qingjiu fled back to her bedroom at the fastest speed in her life.

After closing the door, she relaxed with lingering fear.

13 years...

She didn't know what attitude she should have when facing her mother again.

Should I be excited?Should I still be nervous?Or is it both?
Gu Qingcheng seems to have maintained her original appearance, but the current Gu Qingjiu is no longer the same as when she was 15 years old.

She is no longer a girl, no longer the little girl who can hide in her mother's arms and laugh.

Even when traveling to other small worlds, she had the experience of being a mother several times.

But soon, a more important thing was placed in front of her:
How did Gu Qingcheng travel through time?
Looking at her, it seems that time travel was not her original intention, and she did not show a very strong desire and purpose.

And what role does Gu Wenjin, who can bring Gu Qingcheng back to the present, play in it?

If Gu Wenjin is a person who can control the time travel at will, then does the time travel between himself and Gu Wangchu have anything to do with him?
However, before she could think about this question clearly, the truth——came to her.

However, that's all for later.

-

The next morning, before Gu Wenjin had time to go to work, she was stopped by Gu Qingjiu.

"Uncle, don't you think you owe me an explanation?"

Gu Qingjiu's extremely serious tone caused Gu Wenjin's hand to take the coat to pause unconsciously, but he didn't look at the other party, but after putting on the coat, he asked slowly in the process of tidying up:

"What do you think I should explain to you?"

"For example, should you explain to me your relationship with my mother?"

"It's just siblings."

When he straightened his collar, he didn't even look up at Gu Qingjiu.

"Just siblings?"

Gu Qingjiu also laughed out loud at his prevarication words.

No matter how naive a person is, they should find some clues from the relationship between them. How could she be easily prevaricated by Gu Wenjin's few words:

"Aunt Gu Chi is also your sister, but the expressions you look at them are completely different."

Only those who care about Gu Chi can be called brothers and sisters.

And the expression on his face when he looked at Gu Qingcheng...

If it's just an ordinary brother-sister relationship, as for rescuing the other party from another time and space regardless of one's own life?

If it was Aunt Gu Chi who was in danger today, would it be possible for Gu Wenjin to devote more than ten years of his time just to do something with little hope?

A bold guess had actually been secretly hidden in Gu Qingjiu's heart all along, but this idea was so outrageous that she refused to express it herself.

Gu Wenjin saw that she was talking about this, took a deep breath, and asked while wearing a tie:

"So, what do you mean?"

"I hope this sentence can come out of your own mouth," Gu Qingjiu knew that he would keep the answer to this question to herself, but she didn't want to fall into the trap, instead she tilted her head and asked:
"Or, do you want to discuss with me more about how mother came to this place after more than ten years?"

Now, there are two questions in front of Gu Wenjin, which are also the two questions Gu Qingjiu wants to know the most.

The reason why she pushed the other party into a dead corner was because she expected these two questions, and Gu Wenjin had to answer at least one of them.

"Hey..." Gu Wenjin sighed. The secret was like a heavy burden on his heart. In fact, his heart was also very irritable. He didn't tie it well every time, so he simply pulled out the tie annoyedly, hung it back on the shelf, and changed a tie.

While Gu Qingjiu was waiting for his reply, Gu Wenjin finally spoke:
"This kind of inquisitive way of inquiry...you are really very different from Qingcheng."

Afterwards, Gu Wenjin told Gu Qingjiu everything that happened that year.

But after Gu Qingjiu gradually understood the truth of the year, her mind was filled with shock.

"So that's how it is..."

"No wonder, no wonder Shen Junnan would say that..."

While Gu Qingjiu was still digesting what he had just said, Gu Wenjin was finally able to leave.

And in a corner that they didn't see, Gu Qingcheng was leaning against the wall, his face, which was obviously still young and beautiful, was full of sadness.
