Chapter 73 Climb over the Wall

Gu Baisheng was a woman of her word.

She has promised Xiao Rong, so she started to make the plan after work.

Since Song Shuang wouldn’t pick her up from work this afternoon, the plan of helping Xiao Rong slip out of the school became much easier to execute.

Students of great numbers in the school were physically disabled.

So the wall was not very high.

It was just that the iron fence at the top of the wall was a little sharp.

In order not to get injured by the fence, Gu Baisheng covered it with her bag.

Even if stuck by the fence, they would not get injured.

There was a slight limp in the left leg of Xiao Rong. But helping with his long arms and legs, it was still not difficult to climb over the wall.

Gu Baisheng, however, who was different from the leggy man,

Felt kind of difficult to climb over the wall.

She also got a little dizzy when climbed down the wall.

Xiao Rong stretched out his arms under the wall, signaling her to jump.

Looking down from the top, which was about two meters high, Gu Baisheng was afraid that if he failed to catch her, she would almost get killed.

Xiao Rong looked at her with confidence, signaling, “Trust me, just jump."

Gu Baisheng was still in hesitation.

Suddenly, the guard of the school got closer to them. Seeing that Gu Baisheng was sitting on the top of the wall, he roared, "What are you doing, come down!"

She was afraid to jump initially,

but with the guard behind, she could do nothing but only jump.

Xiao Rong also got a little worried.

Gu Baisheng yelled to him, "Be careful please!"

Xiao Rong nervously nodded and stared at her with his whole attention.

Gritting her teeth and closing her eyes, she jumped down from the wall.

She was afraid that Xiao Rong cannot catch her

Because of his leg.

But she finally found that Xiao Rong was strong enough to hold her.

He held her so steadily.

The guard behind them kept roaring, "Stop!"

They won't stop certainly.

Xiao Rong put her down and ran away with her.

Fortunately, a bus arrived at the bus stop just in time.

Without any hesitation, Gu Baisheng grabbed Xiao Rong to get on the bus.

As a great escape, what has happened was so soul-stirring.

Only after they sat on the seat, they got a chance to breathe a sigh of relief.

When Gu Baisheng turned around to look at Xiao Rong,

She found that Xiao Rong was also looking at her.

Feeling funny about what they have done, Gu Baisheng burst out laughing suddenly.

A smile stole over Xiao Rong's face as well.

Seeing her with his charming eyes, he was attracted by her hearty laugh.

Others on the bus were confused about them.

And the attention was mostly given to the expression of Xiao Rong.

A little girl even said in a low voice to her mother who was holding her hand, "Mommy, the big brother over there is so nice-looking. Is he a star?"

The young mother looked at Xiao Rong, getting surprised.

Hearing what the little girl said, Gu Baisheng and Xiao Rong looked at her immediately.

Xiao Rong said with sign language, "She is so cute!"

Noticing Xiao Rong's sign language, she frowned and asked the young woman, "Mommy, does the big brother have trouble in speaking?"

Hearing this, the young woman hurriedly stopped the girl.

But it was too late. Xiao Rong was extremely embarrassed by the word.

On hearing this, his hand sank with a sense of self-abasement.

Other passengers in the car began to whisper.

"What a pity, how could he be a dumb person?"

"More than that, he also has trouble in his left leg. I noticed that it is lame."

"If he were not disabled, it is enough for him to rival the recent popular Song Yi with the appearance."

"How can you compare my idol to a dumb? Just stop to say that."

The whisper began to circulate throughout the bus.

Everyone on the bus turned to look at Xiao Rong in a moment.

Hearing that he is disabled, some girls glanced at his left leg quickly and laughed at him.

Xiao Rong withdrew his foot back.

Gu Baisheng got annoyed by the talk and said with clenched teeth, "Just mind of your own business!"

The roar of her scared the young girl who was brazenly laughing at Xiao Rong. They turned away their gaze finally.

The situation made Gu Baisheng felt quite embarrassed, let alone Xiao Rong himself.

Just like looking at the monkey in the zoo, passengers looked at Xiao Rong weirdly.

Some looked at him out of sympathy, some out of contempt, and also some out of curiosity and gloat.

Gu Baisheng took Xiao Rong off the car before the destination of which they wanted to get off.

Like a depressed little rabbit with its ears down, Xiao Rong didn't look very well.

Xiao Rong was so disappointed. Gu Baisheng hailed a car and hurried him on it.

After telling the driver the destination, Gu Baisheng started to comfort Xiao Rong, “Don’t care what they say or look at you."

His mouth turns down. He said with his long and beautiful fingers, "Some of them still discriminate against me, don't they?"

She was learning sign language with Xiao Rong, but she was not a good learner.

There was still some complex sign language that she could not understand,

For example, the sign language just now.

But she knew that the depression of Xiao Rong came from the wired look on the bus.

She comforted him with a soft voice, "Take it easy, not everyone will treat you like that."

Xiao Rong looked at her with doubt.

Gu Baisheng got a little worried, "Just like me, I will never treat you like that."

Hearing what she said, he stared at her in silence.

Gu Baisheng continued, "There is a great difference between different people in the education level and view of life. Different from those who have no sympathy for others and speak without consideration of others' feelings, there are still many people who are thoughtful and always help others. People like them will always give others the respect they deserve."

Seeing Gu Baisheng carried on talking,

Xiao Rong stood with downcast eyes.

"There are nice people and bad people in the world. Just like sunshine and shadow, people who have a warm heart and those who don't all exist in the world. Someone could laugh at you, but there are still many people who are always there to help."

Gu Baisheng tried to help him get over the feeling of depression.

Xiao Rong forced a smile reluctantly.

He was still not happy.

Gu Baisheng sighed, knowing that it is impossible to make him feel good.

Then she told the driver, "Sir, please drop us at the milk tea shop."

"OK," the driver replied.

There was a milk tea shop near the home of Hu Hui.

The shop is not big but has existed for many years.

It was already there when Gu Baisheng studied at the university.

After the marriage with Song Shuang, she treated him with a cup of milk tea over there.

Though Song Shuang didn't like something sweet, he drank off it after all.

Gu Baisheng and Xiao Rong got off at the milk tea shop.

It was the time of the rush hour and students were leaving school.

So the long queue could be seen in front of the store.

It took them some time to queue up.

“Which one do you want?"

Gu Baisheng asked Xiao Rong.

Xiao Rong looked at her, didn't know which one to choose.

Gu Baisheng suddenly remembered the candy. Xiao Rong seems to like chocolate, so she asked, "Do you want chocolate milk tea?"

"Which one do you like?"

Xiao Rong asked.

She said, "Chocolate milk."

He told her with sign language, "Then I'll choose the same one you like."

Gu Baisheng nodded, "OK."

The milk tea was quickly delivered and Gu Baisheng got the check.

Xiao Rong took out a book seriously and kept an account on it.

Noticing what he was doing, Gu Baisheng burst out laughing, "Why are you keeping the account? Are you really going to pay me back later?"

Gu Baisheng was just joking.

But he was serious unexpectedly.

He said with sign language, "After I make money, I will also bring you to drink milk tea here."

"OK."

Gu Baisheng nodded.

She stuck a straw for him.

Seeing that she took a sip of milk tea, he turned away and started to drink his hot chocolate.

Gu Baisheng asked him expectantly, "Do you like it? Does it taste better than that of your school?"

Xiao Rong nodded.

He seemed to enjoy the sweet taste with his eyes narrowed.

Noticing his smile, she then thought he was feeling better.

It was not very far from the home of Hu Hui.

Gu Baisheng told Xiao Rong, "It is not far from my home, we can have a meal together."

"Your home?"

Xiao Rong was surprised.

Gu Baisheng explained, "It is my aunt's home."

Xiao Rong nodded and followed her.

Gu Baisheng was quite familiar with the district, in which she also met many neighbors that she has known for decades.

Now with her identity changed, she couldn't greet them but just walk straight forward.

When she was near the house,

The voice of Qu Xiaobo came through, "Gu Baisheng."

Hearing that, she turned around towards the voice.

Xiao Rong also turned around.

Suddenly, Qu Xiaobo was amazed by the charming look of Xiao Rong. She was absolutely stunned with her mouth widely opened.

Looking at the reaction of Qu Xiaobo,

And then at the Xiao Rong whose eyebrows were screwed up because of the gaze,

she quickly walked in front of Xiao Rong and said to Qu Xiaobo, "Such a coincidence!"

Hearing what she said,

Qu Xiaobo snapped out of shock, quickly grabbed Gu Baisheng's arm, pulled her aside, and asked her excitedly, "Look at you, where did you get such a handsome boy? Please introduce one to me."

"Nonsense,"

Gu Baisheng gave her a knock on the head on seeing her reaction.

"Where did he come from? Is he your boyfriend?"

Qu Xiaobo kept gossiping.

Gu Baisheng helplessly shook her head, "He is a student of our college."

"How could it be? He must have been 20 years old."

Knowing that he was her student, Qu Xiaobo became less enthusiastic but more sympathetic toward him. She asked, "What's wrong with him?"

Gu Baisheng stared at her and said, "Just keep quiet later, he can't speak."

"Well, he is dumb."

Qu Xiaobo felt even more sorry for him, "What a pity. If such a good-looking man could talk, I must be obsessed with him and drunk to death in his bed."

Looking at the way she presented, Gu Baisheng felt a little speechless.
