El misterio del periódico K

Capítulo 39

Xiao Bi was stunned for a moment, then stared at us with twitching lips, "Forget your friends for the sake of beauty! Forget your friends for the sake of beauty!"

Today, Gu Ming and I went for a walk along the river. We walked for a very long time, until it got dark. I held his hand and didn't say anything. We just kept walking and walking, as if we could walk together for a lifetime.

Actually, I'm still scared, scared that everything I'm feeling now is just an illusion. But the warmth of his fingers brought me a sense of peace and relaxation that I hadn't felt in a long time. I smiled and walked slowly, step by step, watching his bright eyes and upturned lips, watching his hair being blown up and down by the river breeze. My empty heart was gradually filled. It's so good to have Gu Ming around, so good that it makes me want to cry.

"Have you seen enough?" He suddenly stopped and turned to look at me, catching a single tear in my eye.

"Why are you crying?" Those hands lifted my face and wiped away my tears.

"It was blown by the wind."

"Are you cold?"

"We've been walking like idiots for hours, how could we not be cold?"

"If the little fool doesn't tell us to stop, how dare the big fool stop?" He chuckled softly as he tucked me inside his clothes. "A hug will keep you warm."

"Don't say things that make my teeth ache."

"Who knows if you genuinely don't like it or are just pretending?"

"..."

"Hey, little fatty."

"What are you doing?"

"Don't cry anymore."

"That's none of your business."

"I won't let you cry anymore." He patted my head.

"..."

"Hey, little fatty."

"Gu Ming".

"kindness?"

"If you call me fat again, I'll kick you into the river."

"..."

The transition from sorrow to happiness was too rapid; I couldn't care less. All I knew was that the happiness Gu Ming gave me was the best happiness in the world, so sweet it was almost sickening...

New Year's Day, January 1, 2006

When I went home for the holiday, Gu Ming followed me around like a shadow.

Gu Ming's flattery skills are getting better and better; my mother couldn't stop smiling.

My mom cooked him a huge feast, completely ignoring my presence.

They were watching TV and talking badly about me that night. I felt like my mom had completely forgotten her task of evaluating Gu Ming; she hadn't even looked at his CET-4 certificate...

January 15, 2006 - A beautiful day

The postgraduate entrance exam is over, and I feel pretty good about it, hehe.

Today is my birthday, and Xiao Bi and others have all presented me with gifts. I weighed their value and laughed...

Gu Ming gave me a red scarf and a pair of red gloves. He said he saw them given as gifts on TV, so he knitted them for a week to finish. I felt like crying when I looked at those two balls of red yarn, but Gu Ming excitedly put them on me and told me to go for a walk.

I suddenly remembered the scarf and gloves I knitted for his birthday, so I found them, put them on him, and let him go for a walk.

Finally, we went out wearing down jackets and each wearing two balls of red and white yarn.

The younger siblings downstairs stared at us for a long time, then nodded as if suddenly realizing something, "So this is the style that's popular this year..."

January 28, 2006 (Lunar New Year's Eve)

We set off a lot of fireworks today. I blew several holes in Gu Ming's pants. Xia's dad said I was too skilled, only blowing up his pants and not his person.

In the evening, I felt that on this day of bidding farewell to the old year and welcoming the new, we should reflect on the past and look forward to the future...

Gu Ming said he was wrong to always bully me before, and from now on he will work hard to earn money.

"Gu Ming, what else can you do if you don't catch ghosts?"

"Open a bar, do programming, or how about we go fry stinky tofu?"

Can you make money frying stinky tofu?

"It should be fine, right? I heard that the pancake vendor at the corner of our street already owns several villas."

"Wow, does that mean we can earn enough to buy a few villas to play in?"

"Yes, you can charge me when I fry tofu from now on."

Can I have a few skewers first?

Eat whatever you like.

"very nice……"

As for me, there's not much to summarize about the past. From now on... I hope for peaceful and happy days, and for everyone to be joyful.

That's enough, yes, that's enough...

Ghost Diary Side Story: <<Haircut Diary>>

On [Date], the weather cleared up, then turned into a major flood.

Two months into the new semester, I haven't been able to do manual labor for Gu Caizhu for three days because I've been so busy with schoolwork.

Xia Canyue called me this morning to tell me that "Moonlight" had hired a new waiter, and kept repeating in a strange tone, "Gu Ming went on a picnic with his friends yesterday." When I didn't react, she started cursing and made plans to have lunch together at noon.

After class at noon, Xia Canyue was already stamping her feet at the school gate. She was wearing large black sunglasses, a black trench coat, and even her hair was dyed jet black. I think Xia Canyue has been developing in a super-dark, SWAT-like direction ever since she started dating Gao Tian. Luckily, Gao Tian is a policeman; if he were a zoologist, the consequences would be unimaginable…

After dinner, Xia Canyue took me to the hair salon to get my hair done again. She and the stylist talked me up until I was completely speechless. When they learned that I hadn't had my hair done in almost a year, they were so shocked that they couldn't speak. Then Xia Canyue told the hairdresser, "You've made her look like she's 20 when she's 40."

The barber gave me a deep look, and I felt that his eyes carried a heavy burden of pressure and... endless contempt for my hair.

...

Four hours later, I returned to school with an innocent, girlish hairstyle. During class that evening, the teacher asked me, "Excuse me, are you here to audit the class?"

After class, I ran into Deng Fei on the street. He saw me and continued chatting and laughing with others. Three seconds later, he turned around, his face stiff, and then ran over to me and asked in a serious tone, "Who did it?"

I returned to my dorm room filled with resentment. As soon as I opened the door, I heard, "Hey, are you looking for someone?... Ah!... Oh my god!......"

At seven o'clock, Xia Canyue called again, "You don't have class tomorrow, right? Come over and help out tonight. There will be a lot of people, and I'm afraid I won't be able to handle it..."

There wasn't a single noisy sound on the phone. Lots of people... You're kidding me... Two real swindlers...

I took the last bus and arrived at "Moonlight" on a leisurely ride. The big yellow dog next door was acting strangely today. It didn't bark at me as soon as it saw me. Instead, it stared at me in the alley for a long time before letting out a pitiful howl.

Xia Canyue was sitting alone at the bar listening to music. When she saw me come in, she beckoned with her finger and then whispered in my ear, "Gu Ming took the new waiter to dinner. He should be back soon."

"Zhou Bapi is treating people to dinner?"

"A woman."

"..."

She's much prettier than you.

"..."

"She has a much gentler personality than you."

"..."

"Anyone has a better figure than you."

"..."

"That's why I'm worried, you understand?"

"What about yesterday? Did you go on a picnic?"

Xia Canyue blinked and nodded meaningfully.

At eight o'clock, the wind chimes by the door tinkled softly, and Gu Ming walked in chatting and laughing with the people behind him. When he saw me, his expression froze, his gaze shifted to my hair, and the smile on his face vanished without a trace. Then he calmly asked, "What brings you here today? Don't you have class tomorrow?"

“Tomorrow is Saturday. Xia Canyue said there might be a lot of people today, so she asked me to come and help.” I replied reflexively, but my eyes drifted to the girl’s hair.

Oh no, we have the exact same hairstyle... but my face is a whole size bigger than hers *-*///

Around nine o'clock, quite a few people arrived. The new waiter and I walked around carrying plates. Xia Canyue sat lazily at the bar, while Gu Ming whispered something to her. Xia Canyue smiled slyly, and Gu Ming seemed a little angry. When I approached and placed the empty glass on the counter, they fell silent.

I suddenly felt unwell...

A feeling I'd never experienced before, like a hand gently poking at my heart, didn't hurt, but it hindered its normal beating.
