Chapter 75 The Upper or the Lower
Yue Xincheng was a bit disappointed before, for Gao Ge’s and Meng Jing’s family members have come here to see them off. Even Xia Lu has an elder brother who pampers her so much. Only he was alone.
Seeing Yue Tuzhi come here, he feels so happy.
Gao Ge knows that deep inside Yue Xincheng’s heart, he is always eager to get closer to Yue Tuzhi.
When Yue Tuzhi chatted with Yue Xincheng before, Yue Xincheng caught sight of the hope too.
He feels that his brother is not as bad as he believes and that in fact, his brother is nice to him...
That’s why Gao Ge doesn’t talk with Yue Xincheng about his feeling that Yue Tuzhi must have something to do with his conflict with the Ning Family.
Yue Xincheng doesn’t like thinking, but it doesn’t mean he cannot think. He can feel something is wrong, except that he is too lazy to think about it and not willing to believe it. After all, they are blood brothers.
After talking with Yue Xincheng for a while, Yue Tuzhi comes towards Gao Ge.
“What are you up to by selling the yard to me? You should know that I don’t care about the dozens of million.” Yue Tuzhi says with a smile.
He is still being so gentle but cold.
“I will feel happier on my way to Nancheng City by making some trouble for you before departure.” Gao Ge says bluntly.
Yue Tuzhi feels shocked and then bursts into laughter. He pats Gao Ge’s shoulder and says, “Think about it carefully. From the very beginning, I’ve never done anything harmful to you. You may believe that I have entrapped you, but did you really lose anything? Your parents are fine, Meng Jing is fine, and you are fine. After everything is settled, the only one who suffered loss is actually the Ning Family.”
Gao Ge laughs, “Isn’t it because I am lucky? Do you have anything to do with it?”
Yue Tuzhi looks towards Yue Xincheng and takes a step back.
“When you come back next time, hopefully, we can sit together to have a drink.” Yue Tuzhi says.
Gao Ge sneers and ignores him.
Yue Tuzhi leaves while Yue Xincheng is still indulged in the family affection. He doesn’t enter the high-speed rail station to check in until Gao Ge kicks him in his butt.
On the high-speed train, Gao Ge suddenly notices that Xia Lu seems in a bad mood.
He feels that she must have something in mind bothering her.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe thought she was worried about her brother, but when he wanted to help her put away the luggage but got rejected, Gao Ge realized that she was unhappy with him.
He is so confused.
When did he offend her?
After settling down, they are seated across the aisle. Gao Ge sits beside Meng Jing while on the other side of the aisle there are Xia Lu, Meng Fang and Yue Xincheng.
“Hey, did I do anything that offended you?” Gao Ge asks in a low voice.
“Why did you sell the yard? Even you did want to sell it, why didn’t you sell it to me?” Xia Lu says with a displeased face.
Gao Ge is at a loss.
He remembers telling Xia Lu that the yard was not as good as before.
Why does she still feel this way now?
“The yard is of no value now...” Gao Ge says again what he has mentioned before.
“No value? You said that just because it has no aura?” Xia Lu says with a sneer.
Gao Ge scratches his head.
What else could it be?
What else?
Gao Ge wants to ask more while Xia Lu just turns away from him.
Gao Ge is rather puzzled.
“Is it so hard to understand girls’ mind?” He is about to wonder what life is.
“You are too silly.” Meng Jing says while holding back her laughing.
Gao Ge looks at her and feels amazed, “You understand that?”
Meng Jing looks towards Xia Lu and then whispers, “Actually, she is just loath to part with the yard.”
“Loath to part with the yard?” Gao Ge gets more confused.
They didn’t spend much time in the yard. Why is she loath to part with it?
If she even feels loath to part with this, there must be a lot more things and people she cannot part with.
“We spent quite some time in the yard and a lot of things happened there. For Xia Lu, these things are new to her.” Meng Jing says, “She told me before that she didn’t have many friends and that we were all her friends. She has many memories in the yard.”
Gao Ge takes a tumble.
He has a look at Xia Lu subconsciously. Xia Lu must have heard what Meng Jing told him but she didn’t jump up and refute.
It means that what Meng Jing said is right.
It seems that girls do know girls’ mind...
Although Xia Lu has her eyes closed, her eyelashes are slightly fluttered.
She is really unhappy.
As Meng Jing said, she has a lot of memories in the yard. Gradually, she realizes that Gao Ge, Yue Xincheng and Meng Jing are so interesting.
It turns out that being with them can make her feel that even getting hurt is quite happy to her.
Yet, without the yard, the memories are gone as well.
She has money, too.
She really wants to tell Gao Ge that she is willing to buy the yard!
But did he ask for her opinion?
Yet, due to her characteristic, she is not that kind of person who can say those things honestly, so she can only remain in a sulk.
“When I have a chance in future, I will take the yard back from Yue Tuzhi!” Upon getting off the train, Gao Ge says to Xia Lu.
Xia Lu is a bit surprised.
Gao Ge grins and continues to say, “Moreover, as we are always with you, even if the yard is a place of memories for you, the memories are taken out by us too.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmXia Lu doesn’t speak but Gao Ge is not a fool who can notice that Xia Lu looks less unhappy now.
Whew...
To mollify a girl also requires techniques!
When they arrive at the Cultivation Academy from the urban district of Nancheng City, Meng Jing is taken away by Meng Fang. She asks to live with Xia Lu as to the rearrangement of accommodation. Xia Lu is fine with that. And it is not difficult for Meng Fang to take care of that.
Each of the dorms in the Cultivation Academy can accommodate four persons. Last time when Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng came here, their dorms were temporarily arranged. Now that they are switched to another dorm, Gao Ge sees the other two roommates.
Upon entering the dorm and putting away the luggage, they hear a boy with fair skin on the upper berth ordering with his feet shaking in the air, “New boys, go to the canteen to bring us a meal.”
The other boy with beards sitting on the lower berth winks and casts a glance at Gao Ge and Yue Xincheng, looking like ready to watch a show.
Gao Ge grins and starts to make his bed.
“Boss, do you pick the upper or the lower?” Yue Xincheng scratches the back side of his head and asks.
“Both are fine by me.”
“Then I’ll pick the lower.” Yue Xincheng giggles.
The boy with fair skin sits on the upper berth with his legs still shaking.
“Didn’t you hear me talk to you? Who allows you to pick the bed?
“Bed?” Yue Xincheng turns towards him and feels a bit confused, “Who told you that we were picking the bed?”
“Then why did you ask him whether he picked the upper or the lower...”
Yue Xincheng suddenly comes to understand and takes a few steps forward, reaching out his hand to punch the boy with beards lying on the bed.
“By saying that I pick the lower, I mean this!” Yue Xincheng shouts angrily. The boy with beards cannot avoid the attack and gets punched by Yue Xincheng.
Right at the moment, Gao Ge also goes forward and grabs a leg of the boy with fair skin to drag him off the upper berth.
Bang! The boy with fair skin falls heavily to the ground, making a big noise. Before he comes to his sense and screams, Gao Ge steps on his chest again.
Calm, accurate and resolute.
The ground rules for hoody fighting.
Being asked whether to pick the upper or the lower, Gao Ge understood what Yue Xincheng meant.
This is the tacit understanding cultivated between them over the past cooperative fighting.
