[R18] Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu – “Mr. Gu and Mrs. Gu” Chapter 20 [English]
byWhat do you do when you go to the supermarket?
Gu Mang’s liver was injured in a car accident and has never been completely cured. He has been to the hospital countless times in the past two years. He is still waiting for the opportunity for liver transplant surgery, so he needs to be very careful about his diet.
Gu Kou only dared to let him take two bites of the cake, then quickly grabbed the spoon back and said, “Don’t eat it!”
After all, Gu Mang was only in the second grade of junior high school, and he was very big-hearted. He didn’t care about this health-preserving thing for the elderly. He leaned on the chair and watched Gu Kou finish the rest of the chocolate cake.
There is a very shallow scar on the inside of Gu Kou’s left wrist. You can’t see it without looking carefully, but Gu Mang always stares at the scar in a daze.
Gu Kou even committed suicide when he was in a car accident two years ago. He had no time to make arrangements for his parents’ retirement, and the expenses for the cemetery, cremation, and funeral had not yet been paid. However, Gu Mang’s rescue operations were one after another, which was enough to crush everyone.
The price of a day’s stay in the intensive care unit was astronomical for Gu Kou, who was just a high school student at the time. During the most difficult time, Gu Kou didn’t sleep for five days and kept signing critical illness notices.In the end, she fled back to the empty home, crying loudly, and slashed her wrist with a fruit knife.
Gu Mang woke up at that time.The nurse called home. When Gu Kou received the call, she even forgot about her death.When she rushed back to the hospital, the nurse was startled by the sight of her covered in blood. She hurriedly grabbed her hand and looked at it, only to find that the wound had dried up and condensed, and now only a shallow scar remained.
Gu Mang sometimes feels very irritable because of the heat of adolescence, because he always has to go back and forth between school and hospital, because he doesn’t understand the hardship of Gu Kou’s work, and because all his thoughts that are beyond his power are superfluous.
But as long as he sees the shallow scar on Gu Kou’s wrist, he will calm down inexplicably.
Because there are seven billion people on the earth, and in the vast sea of people on this planet, only the two of them are truly connected by blood and share life and death.
What Gu Kou cut open was her own blood vessel, but the scar also left a mark on Gu Mang’s body. The same pain can be divided by two, but the same happiness can be multiplied by two, just like this piece of chocolate cake. Because Gu Kou likes it, Gu Mang gradually becomes happy.
Gu Mang took Gu Kou to look around the restaurants in the mall, and finally Gu Kou took Gu Kou to the supermarket to buy groceries.After all, there aren’t many things he can eat with confidence. Over the past few years, Gu Kou, who couldn’t even hold a knife, turned into a kitchen wizard.
Fortunately, Gu Mang is not picky about food, and he is very happy to be with Gu Kou.It was the time when the supermarket food was on sale. Gu Mang was startled and he battled wits with the adults and aunts who were grabbing food in the supermarket. He took everything he could grab for himself, and the shopping cart was filled to the brim.
Gu Mang only focused on purchasing, but Gu Kou felt a little overwhelmed when he saw the cart full of unfamiliar ingredients, and was embarrassed to say that he didn’t know how to cook. So when Gu Mang wasn’t paying attention, he secretly looked up the recipe on his phone.Before he could understand a few dishes, Gu Zhengze’s phone call came.
It had only been a few hours after escaping from the tyrannical power of the financial owner, but the shadow of the moon brought by Gu Zhengze had not dissipated. Gu Kou almost subconsciously stood up straight, just shy of saluting in the supermarket, “…Mr. Gu?!”
Gu Zhengze was probably in the car, and he paused when he heard the noisy sales in the supermarket, “Where are you?”
Gu Kou was confused and looked around, “I’m in the supermarket…”
The noble Gu Zhengze may have never seen the inside of a supermarket in his life, “…What are you doing in the supermarket?”
Gu Mang pushed the cart to the checkout counter, turned around and said to She Bihua: “Sister, can you check out first? Do you have a membership card?”
Gu Kou said hurriedly: “No!… No, I’m buying vegetables in the supermarket!”
Gu Zhengze said simply: “Which supermarket?”
Gu Kou’s brain was short-circuited. He didn’t know what “he” meant, and he couldn’t remember the name of the supermarket. He looked around and said, “Japanese, Japanese fresh food supermarket…”
The name of this homely supermarket does not match Gu Zhengze’s style of painting. I wonder if Gu Zhengze would find her unsophisticated and cut off all contact with her directly.
Gu Kou’s hair stood on end after saying this, but Gu Zhengze said calmly: “I know. I’m on the way and will pick you up in fifteen minutes.”
Gu Zhengze kept his words concise and to the point as usual and hung up the phone after finishing speaking.When the beep sounded, Gu Kou’s heart skipped a beat and he raised his eyes to look at Gu Mang.
Gu Mang was still grabbing the shrimps, but he saw she had a solemn expression and was confused, “What’s wrong with you? Your acting skills are too bad? Are you finally fired from the crew?”
