Gu Yanting never thought about what it would be like to see Lin Rui again.
He was really kind to Lin Rui before, and he undeniably lifted the other party to a very distant position in his heart. Although he still feels that Lin Rui is as holy as a flower on a high mountain, his heart has been affected by Tang Yi's reaction. Added a poisonous note to him.
So he is very hopeless and will run away.
It was just a coincidence that he jumped up at the moment when the cutlery was slammed by Sao Fatty, and then saw a young man in a white shirt and a beige coat who pushed in the door.
For a moment, Gu Yanting almost thought it was Tang Yi who came in. But after a closer look, the other party took off the wide sunglasses and revealed a pair of peach blossom eyes, and the corners of his mouth also curved slightly with everyone's greeting, revealing a sweet and pleasant smile.
"I'm sorry, I'm late." Lin Rui closed the private room door, smiled at Gu Yanting when he saw Gu Yanting standing dazed, and then sat down naturally.
He is well-dressed, and his style is becoming more mature today, but he still can't stop the youthful atmosphere exuding from the inside out. Lin Rui's skin has been getting better in the past two years, like a delicate frozen age beauty, and every move has the smell of men's perfume.
For a time, the whole private room had a sense of brilliance. The thin monkey almost arrived from the front and the back. As soon as he arrived, the waiter quickly served the dishes. Gu Yanting couldn't leave at all. Lin Rui's dress today was very careful. The table in the private room was not big, and Gu Yanting felt the opposite. The burning gaze from the head can only keep tilting his head stiffly to look at Sao Fatty and talk, and several times Sao Fatty couldn't help but soothe the goose bumps on his lower arm with a horrified look on his face. Fortunately, Sao Pang irritated him, and seeing him being so cowardly was really helpful. Lin Rui raised his glass several times to respect Gu Yanting, and Sao Pang followed quickly, turning every toast into a pair. Sincere congratulations from the groom.
Later, Lin Rui glanced at them, but did not say anything.
The meal was a bit torturous. Gu Yanting drank wine when he wanted to talk less, and then lowered his head to eat. In the second half of the meal, when there was not much food, he just lowered his head and ate the peppers intently. to tears. It wasn't until everyone got up that he grabbed his jacket and left as if he was amnesty.
Lin Rui stopped him when he was about to rush out of the box, his expression was cold, but there was some hurt in his tone, "Yanting, are you avoiding me?"
No one was blind during the meal, so it was obvious that Gu Yanting didn't want to face Lin Rui. We don't know what happened to these two people, but they are all adults, and they are not lacking in ability to see and act, so this meal was covered for Gu Yanting consciously or unintentionally.
No one thought that Lin Rui, who has always been aloof, would ask such a straightforward question.
Everyone paused when they took their bags and clothes, and subconsciously turned their attention to Gu Yanting.
Gu Yanting's body froze immediately, he stood still for a while and finally turned around and met Lin Rui's gaze for the first time. The latter was biting his lower lip, and his eyes were full of grievance and anger. When Gu Yanting looked back, his eyes suddenly filled with water, and he felt sad as if he was about to cry in the next second.
Seeing that the situation was not right, the thin monkey laughed dryly and wanted to speak.
Lin Rui raised his hand to stop him, looked straight at Gu Yanting and said, "Can you accompany me? Just for a while..." He saw Gu Yanting frowning and was about to speak, but he finally couldn't help biting his lower lip and said softly, " Something happened to my mother."
Twenty minutes later, the two changed places. After Lin Rui talked about his mother, everyone else was concerned, but everyone had things to do. Besides, they didn't have a deep friendship with Lin Rui, so they couldn't replace Gu Yanting at this time. So they could only say goodbye. Gu Yanting was also a little stunned, and he didn't respond when he followed people to a coffee shop not far away.
Lin Rui found a seat by the window and sat down. Gu Yanting sat down with him and saw that he was still sad. In the end, he could only order two drinks by himself. After the clerk walked away, he turned around and comforted him, "Don't be sad. , your mother, what happened?"
"There is a tumor on the breast. I have undergone color Doppler ultrasound and cytopathological examinations, and I have to make an appointment for a puncture next week." Lin Rui glanced at him, then lowered his eyes and smiled indifferently for a while, "It's actually fine, we all do it. I'm ready. I'm back too, and I won't go anywhere else in the future. I'll accompany her regardless of whether her check-up is good or bad."
Gu Yanting nodded and sighed, "I want to treat your mother well, she is very kind to you."
Lin Rui heard the words and laughed, but said nothing.
The clerk quickly brought the coffee. Gu Yanting held the coffee cup in his hand, and his slender fingers couldn't help but tap it twice, obviously a little anxious. Lin Rui took a light sip, then looked up at him, "Are you in a hurry?"
He half-drooped his eyes and smiled self-deprecatingly, "If you are in a hurry, just go first, don't worry about me, I'll be fine."
His tone of voice and expression didn't seem to be okay, Gu Yanting stopped embarrassedly when he said "something", and after a long time of embarrassment, he said, "It's something, you still have a few minutes to finish? Someone come to pick you up?"
When he was thinking about something, unless he had to cover it up, he would write it directly on his face. He saw Lin Rui's face pale, hesitated for a moment, and then asked, "Where's your boyfriend? Why don't I call you and ask him to come and accompany you?"
Lin Rui choked for a moment, then said after a while, "It's already been divided."
"What about your ex-boyfriend? I remember you had a good relationship with them," Gu Yanting said. "Ex-boyfriends are fine too. You're not safe like this."
"..." Lin Rui stopped talking. He bit his lip and turned his head to look out the floor-to-ceiling window. After a while, he said with some resentment, "I won't delay you for too long."
He said so, but he didn't speak for a long time. Gu Yanting waited and waited and finally got really anxious, and finally couldn't help sighing, "Lin Rui, you..."
It's not that he didn't know Lin Rui's thoughts, and he was not a fool after getting along with him in the past few years. Every time Lin Rui broke up with his boyfriend, he would come to him for comfort, and every time he had the same expression. Gu Yanting's words to Tang Yi were not adulterated. He knew Lin Rui too early, and the latter was really beautiful at the time, so he really liked it at the time.
However, liking is also liking. At the beginning, Lin Rui's response to him might have been different, but later Lin Rui was obsessed with all kinds of handsome guys and money owners. In his eyes, Gu Yanting was probably not as reliable as a rich second-generation.
Lin Rui didn't put on the statue again, he responded quickly, turned his head before Gu Yanting finished speaking, smiled bitterly, and said slowly, "When my mother went to the hospital for examination, my stepfather didn't know which little star he was in. On the bed. She went to the hospital alone, and waited for the result alone. At the end, she called me in a calm tone, explained to me her savings and the properties she bought in the past two years, and then let me have Come back and do the transfer."
"I was in Shanghai at the time, and when I finally found out about her situation, I burst into tears. My mother said that she was alone when something happened, and no one could rely on her. In fact, I know that I followed her since I was a child, and was surrounded by people all the way. Pointing at the nose and scolding Xiaosan's son, I know that everyone looks down on me, and I have been trying to find someone who can treat me well and spoil me wholeheartedly, but... "
He paused for a while, then said after a while, "I finally found out that if I get a terminal illness one day, there are really too few things I can't put down. After her, it's you."
Gu Yanting was really stunned this time.
The meaning of Lin Rui's words was very clear, but he found that he couldn't understand it for a while. Even for a moment, he felt that his soul was out of his body. He looked at the scene in front of him coldly, and then coldly turned the page of time, to the time when he was most obsessed with Lin Rui.
Many emotions and throbbing slowly poured back from the top of the head, and then slowly rolled every pore of the body again. He forgot to put down the cup he was holding in his daze, and there was only a capitalized and empty surprise on his face.
Lin Rui looked up at him silently, and finally Gu Yanting saw his lips opening and closing, and said slowly, "You have always been kind to me, and I cherish it in my heart. It's just that I didn't know at the time that you just treated me badly. Yu is grateful, and still likes me, so I have not dared to respond. When I asked you to take me home at the party, I was not drunk. It was the first time I took the initiative and the first time I took someone home by drunk , if you did it at the time, I would definitely cooperate... If you didn't, I wanted to ask you at the time, why didn't you do it, did you hate me?"
"When I left, you said you would wait for me to come back, and you said you would come out. I almost refunded the ticket on impulse. Yan Ting, you know what I mean, now I won't force you, I will ask, before you Does it count?"
Lin Rui has never been so direct. Gu Yanting has always been running errands behind him. Whenever he wants to do anything, he can just raise his hand and say a word. In everyone's eyes, if he wanted to take down Gu Yanting, it was just a matter of searching for something, but now that he was talking about this, he was rarely nervous.
Gu Yanting's expression was a little dazed, and he didn't speak. Lin Rui also waited for him to think in silence. After a long time, he saw that Gu Yanting's eyes gradually became clearer, and then became a little darker.
When Gu Yanting put down the coffee cup in his hand, his arm was a little numb. After returning to his senses, his movements became much smoother. First, he took out his phone slowly, checked the time, then wiped the phone screen and put it in his coat pocket. Then he tidied up his collar with both hands, apparently in a posture of getting up and leaving.
Lin Rui finally realized that something was wrong, and even his breathing became tight.
Gu Yanting hesitated for a while. It seemed that he had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start. In the end, he could only cough lightly to explain Lin Rui's initial doubt.
"Well, that night, I didn't touch you..." He paused and said, "I wasn't afraid of you getting hurt, I was afraid of me."
"I'm quite afraid of AIDS."
