Hearing that Gu Zhen unabashedly said in front of Bai Xixing that the two of them were lovers, Cheng Zhichu's expression changed, he turned to look at Gu Zhen, and glared at him, but the response he got was just a gentle smile from Gu Zhen. .
"You finally agree to see me."
Gu Zhen's gaze on him was soft like water, perhaps because he had a good time at the party, and he also drank some wine. His neat suit was a little messy, his tie was torn loose, and the top shirt was unbuttoned twice. , revealing the collarbone, compared to the usual elegant appearance, a different kind of sexy.
Depend on…
Faced with this overly good-looking face, Cheng Zhichu couldn't scold him, so he staggered his gaze unnaturally and turned to look at Bai Xixing secretly.
He was originally worried that because of Gu Zhen's words just now, Bai Xixing would have a bad reaction, but the latter only had a hint of surprise on his face, then smiled, looked down at Cheng Zhichu, and asked.
"Really? You and him are lovers?"
"Of course not." Cheng Zhichu shook his head and quickly denied it, "I just know him."
"Cheng Cheng..."
Gu Zhen's eyes were a little sad, Bai Xixing curled his lips, and said to him, "It doesn't look like what Young Master Gu said. In fact, Zhichu and you are just a normal relationship, right?"
He especially emphasized the word "general".
Gu Zhen's expression turned cold: "this is a matter between me and Cheng Cheng, I don't think I need to explain it to you."
"Is it because there is nothing to say?" Bai Xixing's smile was slightly ironic.
"Mr. Bai, this has nothing to do with you." Gu Zhen's tone was cold, "Please don't interfere."
"How do you know that his business has nothing to do with me?" Bai Xixing raised his eyebrows, "This should be returned to you, because you don't know what the relationship between me and Zhichu is."
Gu Zhen's expression changed slightly, and he was about to speak again, but Cheng Zhichu couldn't listen anymore. He coughed and said, "Senior Bai, thank you very much, but you don't need to explain to him, let's go in."
Although he didn't want to be involved with Gu Zhen again, he didn't want to be misunderstood that he had any ambiguous relationship with Senior Bai - he was a straight man, so he didn't want to be confused with other men!
"Okay, listen to you."
Bai Xixing smiled lightly, stretched out his hand and pushed open the door, and said, "Master Gu, it's getting late, so I won't invite you in. Your friends are waiting for you, why don't we catch up with you another day?"
"Azhen, what's the matter, what are you telling people, come here!"
Just at this time, the group of drunken young people in the distance were also greeting Gu Zhen, and they were already a little impatient.
"… here it comes."
Gu Zhen was silent for a moment, raised his voice slightly, replied like this, and was ready to leave.
Because he knows that even if he stays here and continues to entangle, there will be no results, but it will make the situation worse.
"I'm sorry to delay Mr. Bai's time."
Gu Zhenzhen took care of his clothes, and seemed to have sobered up from a slight drunkenness, returned to his original graceful appearance, and nodded slightly at Bai Xixing.
After he finished speaking, he looked at Cheng Zhichu again, seeing that Cheng Zhichu's expression was a little dodgy, he suddenly stepped forward, hugged him lightly, and whispered in his ear with a hot breath.
"I'll find you again."
After he finished speaking, he didn't look at Cheng Zhichu's reaction, he walked away quickly, walked into the group of people, and left with his friends.
"… "
Cheng Zhichu stood there, his face turning blue and white.
He knew that Gu Zhen, this bastard, was still the same old man. He was gentle, humble, and polite. He was all farting.
"Brother Cheng, what's the matter with you and Gu Zhen?"
Seeing that the person had left, Bai Xixing stopped pretending, raised his eyebrows and asked, "He pesters you?"
"The situation is a bit complicated, something similar..."
Cheng Zhichu looked embarrassed, and he was a little hesitant to speak.
Although Senior Bai is very nice, he still doesn't want to talk about him and Gu Zhen. After all, he only talked to Senior Bai for the first time today. The two were not so familiar with each other. Even his parents didn't know about Gu Zhen, let alone talking to the senior in middle school.
Seeing that he had something to hide, Bai Xixing smiled and didn't seem to care much, just said, "You shouldn't have called me 'senior' just now, so that Gu Zhen could misunderstand our relationship, and he might give up on you. "
"Thank you for your kindness, senior, but this is too much trouble for you, and it will have a bad impact on you..."
Cheng Zhichu waved his hand and said. And there is another very crucial reason: if Gu Zhen knew that he could accept a man, he would be even less likely to give up on him...
"Go, let's go in."
Gu Zhen took Cheng Zhichu into the villa, and then went to find him toiletries.
During this period, Cheng Zhichu called his home and said that he ran into the senior today and lived here, and would not go back tonight, so they don't have to worry.
Originally, Cheng Zhichu wanted to contact Ji Yunxiao, but he didn't have his mobile phone, so he couldn't open the forum, but Bai Xixing had the contact information of the show team, so he said hello to the group and asked them to tell Ji Yunxiao, saying It's all right here.
"It turns out that Master Cheng has already dealt with the evil spirit in the villa? It's really amazing..."
When Bai Xixing contacted the program team, Cheng Zhichu faintly heard the compliment from the other end of the phone, and he didn't know what memory the system had made up indiscriminately. It was too mysterious.
As soon as he mentioned the ghost in the villa, Cheng Zhichu suddenly remembered that the clown's silver coin rolled to the ground by himself.
Thinking like this, Cheng Zhichu first checked his system backpack, but found that the silver coins had come back by himself at some point, and stayed in the backpack grid without saying a word, terribly quiet.
"Thank you just now."
For some unknown reason, Cheng Zhichu suddenly felt an inexplicable guilty conscience, and thanked Yin Coin.
The silver coin didn't make a sound, but jumped to another slot in the backpack, as if to protest silently.
Cheng Zhichu looked embarrassed and didn't know what to say. But even so, he still doesn't know how to use silver coins, not only is this thing very evil, but what he doesn't believe is his own luck...
"There are three bedrooms on the second floor, all of which can be occupied at any time. You can choose any one."
Bai Xixing went downstairs with a set of pajamas and toiletries, and handed it to Cheng Zhichu: "It's very late, go to bed earlier, I'll drive you tomorrow."
"Thank you so much, it's really bothering senior." Cheng Zhichu took the things and said very embarrassedly.
"It doesn't matter, I will thank you in the future for helping me get rid of the evil spirits in the villa." Bai Xixing smiled, "If there is anything in the future, just talk to me."
"Actually, there is one thing I really want to ask the senior for help." Cheng Zhichu thought about it and said, "I don't know if it is inconvenient for the senior to give me a photo of Bai Yi before, or take a photo of his family?"
Before he saw an old photo of Bai Yi in the bookcase, he had the idea of taking a photo with him, which might make Bai Yi happy after six years of loneliness.
"...No problem, there are many, you can choose whatever you want."
Bai Xixing paused, and his eyes were a little more probing: "You miss my cousin very much?"
"Ah, yes..."
Cheng Zhichu couldn't tell the truth, so he could only find excuses and cover up his discomfort with a teacup: "That's why I wanted a photo of him, um..."
Bai Xixing looked at him a few times, and suddenly said astonishingly: "You have a crush on him?"
"Puff-cough-cough!"
Cheng Zhichu almost spit out the tea in his mouth, coughing for a long time before he could catch his breath.
"Senior??" He looked at Bai Xixing in shock, "How did you come to this conclusion?!"
"Isn't it?" Bai Xixing spread his hands, showing an innocent look, "If it's just a very ordinary relationship, ordinary people won't ask for photos."
"No no no, I don't like Bai Yi, I'm heterosexual..."
Cheng Zhichu waved his hands again and again: "But Bai Yi was really good to me before. I regarded him as a person I respected very much, so I wanted a photo of him."
"Sorry, I misunderstood. There are no problems with the photos, there are many here, you can choose whatever you want."
Seeing this, Bai Xixing didn't ask any more questions, just smiled slightly, took out a few thick photo albums from the cabinet, and handed them to Cheng Zhichu.
Cheng Zhichu opened the album, and there were many photos of people in it, including many of Bai Yi's, from when he was a child, to his boyhood, and to the recent photos of him not long before he disappeared, which almost dazzled Cheng Zhichu.
Bai Yi is really good at seeing big since he was a child. When he was a child, his facial features were so beautiful.
He sighed inwardly, flipping through the photo album, the little boy in the old photo had a delicate appearance, wearing a small suit, with a smile on his face, so cute that Cheng Zhichu couldn't help but lightly tap the little boy's cheek with his fingers.
However, as Bai Yi grows up, he smiles less and less in the camera, and rarely looks at the camera. Most of them have a cold profile, and it seems that he doesn't even bother to look at him.
Cheng Zhichu wanted to take a photo that was closer to the time, and it still seemed that Bai Yi was happier, but he flipped through two copies in one go, but he couldn't find a photo of Bai Yi smiling, all with an indifferent expression.
"Does Bai Yi not like taking pictures?" Cheng Zhichu asked Bai Xixing in surprise, "Why doesn't he look at the camera?"
"Well, he doesn't like it very much. Every time we want to take a picture of him, we have to find him for a long time, and we have to keep an eye on him, otherwise he will run away in a while."
Bai Xixing nodded, looking a little helpless: "Actually, he is quite willful."
capricious? Can this word be used to describe Bai Yi
Cheng Zhichu was shocked, recalling Bai Yi's gentle appearance, willful... ? I'm afraid there is no one who speaks better than Bai Yi!
But Bai Xixing's expression didn't seem to be fake, and Cheng Zhichu didn't want to guess that the senior was talking bad about Bai Yi. He just thought, it seems that Bai Yi's personality has changed a lot since he grew up, perhaps because of his disappearance in the past six years...
Thinking of such a possibility, he suddenly felt a little distressed, and continued to lower his head to select the photos. When the third book was also about halfway through, he finally saw an old photo of Bai Yi smiling. He had seen similar ones in the bookcase before. It was Bai Yi who was painting, with a soft and focused expression, and dazzling colors fell on the canvas.
Fortunately, the time when this photo was taken is slightly different from the one in the bookcase. There is no Zhou Luochen here, only Bai Yi himself.
The color on the canvas has been smeared in many layers, and it has gradually taken shape. It is a beautiful sea of roses, and in the middle stands a person who has not yet drawn a detailed outline.
This made Cheng Zhichu think of the previous portrait, the person in the painting was him when he was young, which made him feel a little uneasy.
But that's the setting in the dungeon. Bai Yi in the real world didn't know him before. They met for the first time in the game, so this painting must also be painted by another person.
"Senior Bai, who is the person in this painting by Bai Yi?" In order to reassure himself, Cheng Zhichu pointed at the photo and asked.
Bai Xixing thought for a while, then shook his head and said, "Maybe it's a girl? I can't remember."
It shouldn't be him, or Senior Bai might recognize him. Cheng Zhichu breathed a sigh of relief.
"Is this painting still there?"
"It's gone, the painting was moved to another place a few years ago." Bai Xixing said, "I don't know where it is now."
"That's it..." Cheng Zhichu felt a little pity, if there was a chance, he would really like to see what Bai Yi's paintings were like, "Senior, can I just choose this photo?"
He pointed to the picture that Bai Yi painted and asked Bai Xixing. He inexplicably likes this photo, and Bai Yi here is rarely smiling. He thinks Bai Yi will be happy when he sees it, but he doesn't know if the senior is willing to give up his love.
"No problem, as long as you like it."
Seeing the photos he selected, Bai Xixing's eyes flashed slightly, and he quickly said something with a smile.
Cheng Zhichu thanked him and seemed to put the photo in his wallet, but it was actually in the system backpack. When he saw Bai Yi later, he would give the photo to Bai Yi.
It took a lot of time to choose photos, it was even later, the two said good night to each other, Cheng Zhichu went upstairs to wash and sleep, Bai Xixing sat alone in the living room on the first floor for a while, suddenly got up, entered his bedroom, opened the door. The basement connected to the bedroom went in.
He said that the person in the painting was not Cheng Zhichu, of course it was fake. Anyway, Cheng Zhichu had already forgotten the original incident. In order not to let him notice the clue, he naturally wouldn't tell the truth.
As for not knowing where the painting went, it was also fake. Before the show was recorded, he took the portrait out of the house and put it in the basement of the villa to avoid being discovered.
But-
Looking at the empty basement, Bai Xixing opened his eyes wide, and was stunned to find that the portrait had disappeared. He immediately became anxious and began to search around the villa, but still could not see the shadow of the portrait.
None of the other items were lost, but only the paintings were missing. Thinking of the ghost that appeared in the villa today, Bai Xixing frowned, suspecting that there might be some connection between the two. The villa had just been haunted, so he went out and ran to the opposite side, opened the door of the villa, and entered Zhou Luochen's bedroom.
really…
Bai Xixing stared blankly at the portrait on the wall.
No one moved it, but it re-hung itself on the wall.
The boy in the portrait has clear eyes, standing quietly in the sea of roses, smiling brightly, as if he will never leave here.
…
Although he experienced a copy of reality this day and accidentally met Gu Zhen, Cheng Zhichu still slept well. He slept until dawn, and after having breakfast with Bai Xixing, he took Bai Xixing's car back to the city and put his mobile phone into the city. Take it back.
When he went to look for his mobile phone, the staff were very enthusiastic towards him, especially Xiao Liu, who were still shouting "Master Cheng" one by one, vying to shake hands with Cheng Zhichu, which made Cheng Zhichu very uncomfortable and took it. His cell phone left the studio in a hurry.
Fortunately, the phone still had power, so he contacted his family first and said that he would go back immediately, and then sent a message to Ji Yunxiao on the forum, saying that he was all right, and Ji Yunxiao immediately replied to his message, The words revealed sincere joy.
At this time, Cheng Zhichu suddenly remembered that his sister also asked him to ask for Ji Yunxiao's autograph. He originally wanted to go to Ji Yunxiao after the show was recorded, but unexpectedly, an accident happened. Now Ji Yunxiao has already rushed to other cities to attend the brand Activities, he was destined to go back empty-handed.
"Chameleon: It's okay, I'll mail you a gift, you can tell me your home address."
Cheng Zhichu was very pleasantly surprised when he saw Ji Yunxiao's message. He praised Ji Yunxiao in his heart. It was so considerate. After thanking him, he immediately opened the message from Bai Yi. He had not replied to Bai Yi for a long time. .
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: I'm sorry!! Something happened, I haven't been able to get my phone, so I'm just getting back to you now, I'm so sorry!!"
Bai Yi replied to his message in seconds.
"Nan Yi: It's okay."
"Nianyi: You've worked hard, I don't care."
"Read One: I'm used to being alone."
Ah, bad, Bai Yi's tone seems to be very sad...
Cheng Zhichu felt a little bad, and quickly apologized to Bai Yi. Fortunately, Bai Yi was still so considerate. Before he apologized, Bai Yi comforted him in turn, and his tone was obviously different from the tone just now. He was really comforting.
This also made Cheng Zhichu breathe a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he noticed that Bai Yi was unhappy, otherwise he would not say anything, and he was afraid that Bai Yi would be really angry. After all, although Bai Yi has a good temper, he is also more sensitive. He was also aware.
But... is this his illusion, why does it always feel like he is coaxing his moody girlfriend...
He murmured to himself in his heart, but he didn't plan to say that he had encountered the real copy. He really couldn't reply to the message. He didn't want Bai Yi to worry about him in the copy.
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: By the way, when I went out this time, I happened to meet your cousin Bai Xixing. What a coincidence, he is still the senior of my middle school."
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: He also hosted me for one night in your villa. He is really nice. I used to admire him for being smart and handsome, but now I have a better impression of him."
"Read one:..."
But Bai Yi's reply didn't seem to be very happy. Cheng Zhichu suddenly remembered that Bai Yi had been missing for six years. Maybe he missed his family very much. He mentioned it so abruptly now, which might make Bai Yi feel sad. Considered.
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: ... I'm sorry, did I make you unhappy?"
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: I'm really sorry, I just learned about you, I feel very happy, I want to tell you, if there is anything wrong, I apologize to you..."
"Nianyi: I'm not unhappy."
"Nianyi: Knowing me will make you happy? Is this true?"
Cheng Zhichu felt that Bai Yi's words seemed to imply expectation, and it happened that he also wanted to inquire about Bai Yi's disappearance and see if he could help him, so he answered affirmatively.
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: Yes, this time I also saw the photos of you when you were a child, and I was very happy to see them."
"Nianyi: If you want to know me, you can ask me at any time, no need to ask Bai Xixing."
"Nianyi: He doesn't understand anything."
"Nianyi: I have a very bad relationship with him. If you can, I hope you don't get too close to him."
"Freshly squeezed orange juice: Huh? Really? Okay..."
Cheng Zhichu blinked, showing a puzzled look.
Ah, is that so? But why did he feel that their brothers had a good relationship from Senior Bai's side

Bai Yi's Diary Part 46
Zhichu even boasted that Bai Xixing was smart and handsome, and said that he admired him before.
He never said those words to me.
