Reborn into the 70: Turning Adversity into Her Dazzling Path

Chapter 26: Chapter 26: Awkward Style

Knowing Yang Yunhai has a cleanliness obsession, Gu Lingling patted herself clean inside and out before entering the kitchen.

”How’s your foot?” Gu Lingling asked, pulling up a stool for He Yue to sit on.

She wanted to ask Yang Yunhai for some alcohol to rub on He Yue, but considering his earlier attitude, what if they ended up catching eyes?

Gu Lingling was so torn inside.

”It’s not as painful as before,” He Yue said shyly.

If it weren’t for Gu Lingling this time, she didn’t know what she would have done.

”Little girl.”

In the courtyard, Yang Yunhai called out lightly.

Little girl?

Was he calling her?

”You sit here for a while, I’ll go check.” After settling He Yue, Gu Lingling walked out, ”My name is Gu Lingling, did you mean me?”

”Why did your parents give you such a strange name?” Yang Yunhai finally asked the question that had been on his mind.

But when he looked up, oh no, the little girl who had been smiling earlier was now not smiling at all.

”On the seven strings of the zither, quietly listening to the pine wind cold. My name is Gu Lingling, the ’ling’ with three drops of water, it’s not lonely at all.” Gu Lingling turned her head and walked away, deciding not to bother with him anymore.

All of the past life must have been an illusion.

Two lifetimes, and he always reacts like this when he hears her name.

Laugh if you want, in this life, she won’t be lonely!

An angry Gu Lingling completely forgot to feel timid. When she realized she had just shown attitude to Yang Yunhai, she broke into a cold sweat.

Yang Yunhai face looked puzzled, he hadn’t mentioned being lonely, could this girl read minds?

But no matter what, it seemed he had offended this little girl.

”Um, didn’t your friend hurt her foot? I wanted to tell you, there’s some ointment in the room.” Yang Yunhai said awkwardly, rubbing his nose.

The thoughts of a little girl, really couldn’t figure them out.

When Liu Jun came in, he stood there in a daze, was the person who just spoke like that their usually tight-lipped and icy Brother Hai?

He bumped into the equally stunned Su Ziqiao, ”Did I just mishear?”

Since when did the boss care about people like this?

”I think I misheard too.” Su Ziqiao said, picking his ear, and then brightened up when he saw Gu Lingling. ”But we’re in for a treat today.”

Thinking of the buns from that day, Su Ziqiao started drooling.

”What do you mean?” Liu Jun asked in confusion.

”The bun girl.” Su Ziqiao said, pointing at Gu Lingling who had just entered the kitchen.

”We must stay, then.” Liu Jun said, his eyes rolling. If the buns from that day were praised by someone as food-loving as Su Ziqiao, they must be delicious. ”Brother Hai, how’s it going? We came to see you.”

Yang Yunhai, suddenly called out to, was choked and started coughing.

Liu Jun, ”...”

He seemed to have done something wrong.

”How are you, Brother Hai?” Liu Jun hurried over to Yang Yunhai with Su Ziqiao, ”Did the wound open again?”

”If you shout a few more times, it will.” Yang Yunhai said coldly.

He would never admit it was because these two caught him in an embarrassing moment that he got choked.

Gu Lingling, hearing the conversation from the kitchen, came out holding some greens, frowning at Yang Yunhai and the uniformed Liu Jun and Su Ziqiao.

He’s injured?

”Go get her a bottle of ointment.” Yang Yunhai told Liu Jun, ”And take a look at that little girl’s foot, not in the kitchen.”

The smell of the ointment was too strong, he didn’t want his lunch to have that scent.

Gu Lingling heard his words and her spirits immediately sank.

A sense of defeat overwhelmed her.

He still cared about He Yue.

Could it be that even after being reincarnated, she couldn’t change the trajectory from her past life?
