    🌽"Nian Nian" Gu Chenxi looked at the people coming and shouted happily. The person who came was none other than Mu Nian, Gu Chenxi's long-time girlfriend. At this moment, Mu Nian felt dusty, as if she had rushed back from a far away place. Mu Nian was wearing a windbreaker. Her face was delicate and picturesque, and her skin was fair and delicate. She looked at the pitiful Gu Chenxi and thought to herself that she was not late this time. "I'll take you home." Mu Nian stretched out her hand in the direction of Gu Chenxi. Gu Chenxi was in darkness, and at this moment, he seemed to see his own light. He stood up unsteadily and walked towards Mu Nian. Ke Yu looked at his swaying body and immediately stood up to support him. Mu Nian also came over quickly and took Gu Chenxi's hand. Gu Chenxi quickly hugged Mu Nian. They were different in height. Mu Nian was about 1.6 Meters and Gu Chenxi was over 1.8 Meters. Gu Chenxi seemed to be nestled in Mu Nian's arms. He felt even more wronged. He buried his head in the crook of Mu Nian's neck and whispered, "Baby, why did you come to pick me up?" Mu Nian felt Gu Chenxi's breathing, but she was not in a hurry to explain at this moment. She just looked at Ke Yu and said, "My car is parked outside, please help Chen Xi." Several other people also stood up and looked at Gu Chenxi and Mu Nian. It was the first time for them to see Mu Nian, and they had all thought that Gu Chenxi's girlfriend was fictitious before. Ke Yu wanted to pull Gu Chenxi's hand away and help him out, but Gu Chenxi hugged Mu Nian tightly and wouldn't let go. "Little student Gu, I can't help you, I'm so tired." Seeing this, Mu Nian could only whisper in Gu Chenxi's ear.
