Tang Yi had already opened the door, and he glanced suspiciously at the dark place, only to find that there was someone over there. He was startled and subconsciously threw the dog box over, but fortunately the other party didn't pretend to be dead and walked out of the dark slowly.
It was Gu Yanting.
Tang Yi was stunned for a moment, frowned, and before he could speak, he heard Gu Yanting ask him calmly, "Can I go in and sit?"
"Anything? If you have business affairs, please come to our company tomorrow to talk," Tang Yi said, changing the air box to his arm and holding it.
The atmosphere between the two was a little depressing. Tang Yi turned his head and saw the puppy grunt and scratched the door impatiently.
"Three minutes," Gu Yanting looked at him, "I said I'll leave in three minutes, just treat me as a door-to-door salesman today, and I won't waste your time."
Three minutes was the chicken soup that Tang Yi forcibly poured into Gu Yanting. When he was in school, he worked part-time and went to the door to sell cleaning cream. Nine times out of ten, he would be turned away. Later, when he started to work, he deliberately took care of these young people who ran into the wall between the community and the office building. Whenever I meet a salesman, no matter what the other party is selling, he will always give people an opportunity to express. At first, Tang Yi thought about serving people a glass of water, but it turned out that most salesmen wouldn't drink it, probably afraid that there would be medicine in the water, so the idea of love was simplified to listening to the other person say a few words in the end.
Gu Yanting used to have a very egoistic personality. When the two of them were together, there was always some friction. When they quarreled, the more Tang Yi calmly and rationally categorized the problem into one, two, three, and reasoned with him, the more irritable he became. If Tang Yi said this two years ago, he would definitely get angry on the spot, either forcibly enter the room or leave.
Tang Yi was a little surprised that he would take "three minutes" to deal with it politely at this moment, and his eyes were calm and unavoidable, but it was natural to think about it.
They have all changed, after two years.
Gu Yanting was standing across from him now, and his appearance was completely different from the young man in sportswear who slammed the door two years ago. He was also wearing a fitted suit, his hair was short and refreshing, and his thin and long face became more and more obvious.
The last time Tang Yi saw him was on the night of the banquet. Gu Yanting was dressed in standard business attire, and his hair was styled with wax and brushed back, showing an elite presence. Tang Yi looked at Gu Yanting, who had rapidly grown into a successful person elsewhere, his nose was inexplicably blocked, and he almost threw the wine glass at him and told him to get out of the way unreasonably.
Such anomalies do not lead to any good results on closer inspection. Being detached and open-minded is the best way for two people to get along. The worst way is to have a calm tone, but Tang Yi couldn't do it.
The donkey-faced dog started spinning around in the air box. Tang Yi didn't speak, and Gu Yanting stood still, as if he had enough patience to wait for his answer. The latter was finally pulled down by the dog's son wanting to pee, and he went into the room without saying a word and went straight to the toilet. After Gu Yanting paused for a while, he walked in behind him.
The apartment is still the same as before, except that the beige carpet has been replaced by gray, and the lush purple goose down next to the armrest of the sofa has disappeared, along with the ashtray ornament of the crystal lotus bowl on the coffee table.
Gu Yanting's eyes fell, and then he sat quietly on the sofa.
Tang Yi waited on the dog son after he finished urinating before remembering that it hadn't been pulled, so he simply locked it in the bathroom. When he came out, he saw Gu Yanting sitting on the sofa with long arms and legs, and his posture seemed a little restrained.
The two people who used to rub each other's ears together are now in such a situation, which makes people feel a little emotional and embarrassed for a while. Tang Yi never wanted to speak, but Gu Yanting's appearance was very polite from beginning to end, which made him, as the master, have to speak.
He paused for a while, then simply stood at the door of the bathroom and looked at Gu Yanting, "What's the matter with you? Tell me."
"Well, what about the dumplings?" Gu Yanting glanced at him, then turned to look at the empty fish tank on the small dining table.
The dumpling is a tortoise raised by Tang Yi. He likes to eat tenderloin. It was Gu Yanting's idea to put him on the dining table. Tang Yi sometimes worked overtime too late and didn't go back to live, so he would come to the apartment. Gu Yanting had a second cancer attack for a while, and inexplicably ate vinegar from a turtle, so he ran over during the day and moved it to the dining table. crave it.
Tang Yi's attitude is indifferent now, and Gu Yanting also knows that he needs to focus on common topics to open up the situation. He looks around and thinks of the living creature, and he can't help but look forward to it.
Tang Yi glanced over there lightly and said, "Dead."
Gu Yanting was stunned for a moment: "...Then you mourn."
"It's delicious, but unfortunately I didn't leave you with soup."
Gu Yanting was choked with a bit of laughter, and paused to return to the topic, "I'm here to explain what happened back then."
Tang Yi: "..."
"There may be many reasons for our breakup, but about Lin Rui, anyway, I really have no other ideas. I admit that I liked him for more than four years, and some things have become habit, but since I was with you After we are together, I just want to spend time with you."
Gu Yanting coughed and continued cautiously, "I thought earlier that we are a family and he is an outsider, so we should pay more attention to him. Of course, I am not sure about the proportions. I am doing something wrong in this regard, but If you put them together, I still choose you."
Tang Yi opened his mouth and frowned, trying to refute something, but after Gu Yanting finished speaking, he just rolled his throat and let out a sigh.
"Gu Yanting, you have indeed improved in the past two years, especially in terms of eloquence. Congratulations." Tang Yi looked down at his feet and smiled lightly, "Are you finished? Remember to bring me the door."
Gu Yanting hasn't gone home since he separated from Sao Pang today. He walked back and forth along Jianghuai Road many times. This road is not far from his house and closer to Tang Yi's apartment. When he unconsciously walked under the apartment, after thinking about it for a long time, the above paragraph said that it is false to give up hope. But seriously, he didn't know what kind of reaction he hoped Tang Yi would give.
Tang Yi leaned against the bathroom door, and his expression gradually became impatient.
Gu Yanting paused for a while, feeling that he had a lot to say, but felt that which one was inappropriate. Can only really be like a salesman, silent for a while, got up and said goodbye.
When he went out, he couldn't help but look back, and saw that Tang Yi maintained the movement just now, but closed his eyes, his lips pursed into a straight line, and his clean and round fingers pressed down on his forehead.
Long after Gu Yanting left, Tang Yi was awakened by a stench from the toilet.
When the door was opened, the dog son had already hid in a corner of the toilet with disgust, and the poop it pulled on the diagonal line. Tang Yi was initially disgusted by the stench, and then he couldn't help but be happy when he saw the little guy's eyes.
Shen Fan called again worriedly. Tang Yi was picking up the little guy and smelling whether it stinks. When he answered the phone, he almost didn't want to say a word.
"Have you given a name to my dog nephew?" Shen Fan was so excited that he almost came over from the telephone line, and Tang Yi's ears were aching, "My dog nephew's bloodline is good, Ang, grandfather and father. They are all landing champions from several countries, hey, a few countries are coming for me to see..."
He clicked and clicked like he was flipping through the web page, Tang Yi closed his eyes hard, scratched on the dog's head and said helplessly, "Don't look for it, I don't care about this, I haven't picked a name yet, if you can't, just call it Wangcai. "
"What!!! Such a noble dog..." Shen Fan suddenly became anxious.
"Blessing."
"I depend on you if you can use dim sum, so noble..."
"Rich."
"So noble..."
"Shut up!" Tang Yi finally shouted at Shen Fan when he was furious. When he looked back and saw the dog's son shivering in fright, he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice, "Shen Fan, you know that I work eleven hours a day, and even if I go out once a day, I will be back within two hours. The time to go home is seldom earlier than At 8 o'clock in the evening, at least once a week, I have too much entertainment. I can't open it for three or four days in a row. I have to rest on Saturday, Sunday, and two days. I have to go to the gym to prevent my body from aging prematurely and go to the hospital to die. I also have to go to the orphans once a month, once for an afternoon, you say! How can I raise a dog if you bring me here!"
Shen Fan coughed and finally stopped.
Tang Yi let go of the innocent puppy in his hand, and watched it sniffing everywhere, he took a long breath, "Isn't this dog smart? What is his grandfather's father's championship? No, I will teach you. Can you teach him to eat by himself and use the toilet himself? If it doesn't work, give him the TV remote control, so he can watch whatever station he wants at home, so as not to be lonely and depressed."
When Tang Yi said this, he was half ignorant and half sarcastic. Of course, he didn't expect that two years later, he would become a prophecy. Once he went home early, he was greeted by the air conditioner and TV that were on. The handsome and handsome champion's son, Zheng Inu, sat on the side and opened the refrigerator with a calm expression.
Shen Fan is also serious at the moment, he snorted and said a little embarrassedly, "Champion... seems to be more beautiful, or it's just the body... or something..."
The two stopped talking. After a while, Tang Yi put out the fire, sat on the sofa, and said, "Then tell me, what is it called."
"Ritian!" Shen Fan answered very quickly, faintly proud.
Tang Yi was silent for a while, feeling that he couldn't have a good night tonight, "Is it 'Sunday' on Sunday?"
--
After tossing around and going to bed, it was very late. Tang Yi was exhausted by Gu Yanting and Shen Fan plus a dog. Finally, he checked a bunch of precautions with his eyelids, and he could only put the little guy in the bedroom. Let it see itself at all times.
When entering the bedroom, the puppy was a little curious, ran around for several times and urinated before falling asleep next to Tang Yi's bed.
Tang Yi was a little speechless. In the past two years, he has not stayed overnight in the apartment. Even if someone in the company worked overtime until late at night, he never mentioned it again.
It was probably due to the excessive secretion of male hormones that he was too conscious of occupying territory. When he and Gu Yanting lived together in the past, this apartment was an unused second cave. How can we come here? Later, after the two separated, this place became his so-called home, and subconsciously, he didn't want outsiders to set foot there.
It's just that no matter how you dress up, there's no homely feeling here. The tortoises that have been raised for a long time can die inexplicably. At that time, when the little tortoises were buried in a cardboard box and buried downstairs, Tang Yi was not without desolation. He thought that it was a small apartment.
Tonight, there was finally an alien creature in this empty place. When Tang Yilin turned off the lights, he glanced at the little guy whose eyes were curled up in a ball. The feeling of suffocation just now was suddenly cured by most of it.
A little sleepy, but still can't sleep. The appearance of Gu Yanting standing outside the door, the appearance of sitting on the sofa slightly restrained, and the way he was half-supporting and half-holding him in the box that day made him unable to calm down.
From the moment he heard Gu Yanting's voice a few days ago, Tang Yi thought about whether he would come to him? What would you say if you came
He also knew that after two years of absence, the other party must have changed a lot, and he may even have let go of the past and have a new boyfriend or girlfriend. He even speculated on what Gu Yanting would say, and how he should deal with it so as not to be embarrassed.
But he had a lot of expectations, and he didn't expect Gu Yanting to mention Lin Rui to him.
This is something Gu Yanting would never have done before. He has always divided Lin Rui and Tang Yi very clearly.
Gu Yanting's feelings for Lin Rui can be roughly guessed by Tang Yi. Indeed, as the former said, he had no derailment or other thoughts at the time. People are prone to admiration for people they don't know or can't be with, which can easily satisfy their vanity that doesn't go against their conscience.
Gu Yanting was rejected by Lin Rui, and he had no confidence in the gap between him and Lin Rui, so he decided that Lin Rui would not like him. In Gu Yanting's view, admiration and affection under this premise are pure and risk-free.
Like most men's "confidantes" and "wives", some feelings are strong but do not seek results, and some feelings are inseparable but no longer strong. Even Tang Yi was not sure, if someone entered his eyes before Gu Yanting, would he be able to completely erase the first person from his heart as he asked Gu Yanting.
If you go back to the source, it's not all Gu Yanting's fault.
Gu Yanting's indifference and his increasingly critical self were just lost to the passage of time.
Maybe it would be a different situation not to break up at the beginning, after all, after three years of tea, rice, oil and salt, the tenderness and sweetness in the warm clothes are enough to make his bet. Those sweet memories can be used by him as a trump card, and they are thrown out the same way, like an overweight, until Gu Yanting completely abandons Bai Yueguang.
But he was reluctant to take out those precious bits and pieces of the past once, and they would be indifferent once. He thought that if Gu Yanting couldn't let Lin Rui go, at least he still had these memories to keep.
When someone broke up, he still loved him.
