The building of Gu Fei's house was newer than that of Li Baoguo. Although it was also built on the side of the street, there were no fences and no property, it should also be a unit's house, but it looked a lot more pleasing to the eye.
There is no such strong market atmosphere, the walls in the corridor are still white, and there are no spider webs.
However, the floor is not high, and there is no elevator. Once you get in, you just climb the stairs and keep going. When you reach the fifth floor, Jiang Cheng couldn't help but ask, "What floor is your home on?"
"The seventh floor, the top floor," Gu Fei turned to glance at him, with an indistinct smile on his lips, "Why, I can't crawl? Do you want me to carry you."
"Forget it, you're not that much stronger than me, it takes three minutes to get out after peeing," Jiang Cheng said, "Is there a deficiency of the kidneys?"
Gu Fei looked at him for a while, without speaking, turned around and continued to walk up.
There were four households on the seventh floor, and Gu Fei’s house was at the innermost position. When the door opened, Jiang Cheng calmed down. He still remembered how Gu Fei’s mother got angry in the store that day.
As soon as he entered the door, he saw Gu Fei's mother standing in the living room, holding a mobile phone to make a call, with a cigarette in her hand, seeing the two of them coming in, her somewhat surprised gaze crossed Gu Fei's shoulder and landed on Jiang Cheng face.
"Hello, Auntie." Jiang Cheng said quickly.
"The cigarette is pinched." Gu Fei said.
"Why is it so late," Gu Fei's mother pinched off the cigarette, hung up the phone and looked at the two of them, then stared at Jiang Cheng's face for a while, "You were the one in the store last time, right?"
"Yes," Jiang Cheng nodded, hesitating whether to change his shoes, "My name is Jiang Cheng."
Gu Fei took a pair of slippers from the shoe cabinet and threw them at Jiang Cheng's feet, then turned to look at her: "Is there anything else to eat?"
"Yes, I kept a lot, enough for you two," Gu Fei's mother replied.
"Sit down for a while." After Gu Fei finished talking to Jiang Cheng, he walked to a door next to the living room, gently pushed open a crack and looked in.
"Look at Er Miao," Gu Fei's mother explained to Jiang Cheng, "Our family Er Miao... He is more worried about being a brother than being a father."
Jiang Cheng smiled and said nothing.
"Didn't sleep?" Gu Fei leaned against the door frame and said into the crack of the door, "Brother Cheng is here, do you want to get up and say hello to him?"
A few seconds later, there was the sound of slipping on slippers, and then Gu Miao, who was wearing long clothes and long pants, ran out of the door.
"Good evening." Jiang Cheng said with a smile.
Gu Miao showed no expression, just ran to him in a hurry, and sat down next to him on the sofa.
"It's almost ten o'clock and you haven't slept yet?" Jiang Cheng looked at her and straightened the messy hair on her head, "There will be dark circles under the eyes tomorrow."
Gu Miao rubbed her eyes and smiled.
Now the little girl's hair has grown a lot, and although it still has no rules, it is much prettier than the little boy when he was bald.
Both of these brothers and sisters look like their mothers, especially Gu Miao, if they grow up and dress up, they will be a standard beauty.
"Let's eat now?" Gu Fei's mother and Gu Fei walked to the kitchen together, "I'll warm you up."
"Well," Gu Fei responded, "Is there any food?"
"Yes," Gu Fei's mother said, looking back at Jiang Cheng, "Is this child Li Yan's boyfriend?"
This sentence was not loud, but Jiang Cheng still heard it, and then suddenly raised his head in shock, niania! It's too windy, I can't hear it, can you say it again
"...No," Gu Fei said, "what do you think?"
"Then he put on makeup?" Gu Fei's mother said.
"What does makeup have to do with Li Yan, and Li Yan doesn't wear makeup... Today, Ding Zhuxin asked him to take a photo, but he put on his makeup and didn't take it off... By the way," Gu Fei stuck his head out of the kitchen, "Jiang Cheng, you use my mother's. Wash it off with a makeup remover or something."
"Oh." Jiang Cheng stood up.
Gu Fei's mother took him to the bathroom and gave him the make-up remover: "Use this, it removes very cleanly. You can use the above bottle of facial cleanser, it's from Dafei."
"Oh, thank you Auntie." Jiang Cheng looked at the makeup remover.
"The cotton pads are in that powder box..." Gu Fei's mother looked at him, "Will you?"
Jiang Cheng really wanted to say I would, so that she could walk away quickly and stop staring at her, but if she answered "yes", she might become "Li Yan's boyfriend" again, even though he didn't know about Li Yan's relationship with makeup What does it matter... In the end he could only honestly say, "No."
"Er Miao," Gu Fei shouted from the kitchen, "Go and remove your makeup for your brother."
Gu Miao quickly ran in. After Gu Fei's mother went out, she tiptoed to take down the pink box containing the makeup remover, took two cotton pads, poured some makeup remover on it, beckoned, and motioned to Jiang Cheng squatted down.
"Then what?" Jiang Cheng crouched down.
Gu Miao looked at him, closed his eyes forcefully, then opened them to stare at him.
"Close your eyes, right? Good." Jiang Cheng closed his eyes.
Gu Miao began to wipe his face with a cotton pad.
In the kitchen outside, Gu Fei and his mother didn't say anything more.
But the words "Li Yan's boyfriend" were still echoing in Jiang Cheng's ears. When Gu Fei's mother said these words, it was as if she was talking about Li Yan's girlfriend. Li Yan... Really? And it seems to be quite public
If that's the case, Gu Fei, who was hanging out with Li Yan that day, should know this very well, then! fuck! Jiang Cheng suddenly opened his eyes.
Gu Miao squeezed the cotton pad, frowned and shook her head.
He quickly closed his eyes again.
If Gu Fei had such a person around him and had been in contact with such a thing... Then that day when he kissed him, there would be more explanations!
Maybe it will not be as simple as the average person understands it as drinking too much and going crazy.
fuck!
If so, things are embarrassing!
After Gu Miao helped him remove his makeup, he went out. He took Gu Fei's facial cleanser and looked at it, it was refreshing and not tight... fart, he had used this before, it was just as tight, if it was refreshing, it would definitely be tight.
After washing his face, he came out quite tense, and when he saw Gu Fei again, he was so tense that he couldn't even open his eyes.
"Do you have any milk, cream, water, etc.," Jiang Cheng asked, "My face is about to crack."
Before Gu Fei could speak, Gu Miao quickly ran back to his room and handed him a bottle of children's cream.
"Yo," Jiang Cheng took over, "You are quite stinky, you have this."
"Li Yan bought it for her, and she recommends others to use it every day. She never wipes it herself. It's too troublesome," Gu Fei said.
"Do you know Li Yan?" Gu Fei's mother looked at Jiang Cheng and asked again.
“… I’m not familiar with it.” Jiang Cheng replied while wiping his face, feeling a little helpless.
"They've only met two or three times, and Li Yan doesn't have a boyfriend." Gu Fei was probably speechless, "Go to sleep... Er Miao also went back to the room to sleep."
Gu Miao obediently went back to the room and went to sleep. Gu Fei's mother took the phone while dialing and looked at Jiang Cheng several times before returning to the room and closing the door.
The food that Gu Fei’s mother cooked was surprisingly delicious. Even though it was a dish that had been cooled once and then reheated, it was still very fragrant, especially the pork ribs. Jiang Cheng ate four or five pieces in a row, but he finally stopped because he was embarrassed.
"You've already eaten," Gu Fei said, "I'm too hungry to eat."
"Me too..." Jiang Cheng hesitated for a while, but still took another piece and put it in his mouth.
"My mother's cooking is delicious, right?" Gu Fei smiled.
"En," Jiang Cheng nodded, sighed after thinking about it, and looked at the dishes in the bowl, "It seems like I haven't eaten home-made food for a long time..."
Gu Fei did not speak.
Jiang Cheng didn't speak any more, and buried his head in eating.
Since he came here, he has been eating takeout almost all the time, or just going out to eat something casually. Now to save money, he makes his own, usually by cooking noodles.
Now that he suddenly ate such delicious "home dishes", his heart suddenly felt sour. Although he tried hard to make himself not so hypocritical, he still couldn't control it, and his nose also became sore.
Fortunately, Gu Fei got up and took his own bowl and went to the kitchen to wash it. He quickly raised his hand to wipe his eyes, took a few deep breaths, and then slowly suppressed his emotions.
After eating, he didn't rush with Gu Fei to wash the dishes, he didn't want to move.
"You sleep on my bed," Gu Fei opened the door of another room, "I sleep on the sofa."
"No need," Jiang Cheng stood up and followed him into the room, "I'll just sleep on the sofa, I can fall asleep anyway... Your house is... not bad."
The decoration of Gu Fei's living room looks like the style of ten or twenty years ago. It has not been refurbished or updated. Although it is much better than Li Baoguo's house that would have been despised fifty years ago, it is also extremely ordinary. Not to mention the style of a wealthy family.
But Gu Fei's bedroom surprised him.
The house is not big, and there is no decoration, just scratched, but every piece of furniture can be seen to be carefully matched.
Beds, bookcases, desks, chairs, small lazy sofas, small rugs, and hammocks in front of the window, there are many things, but they are not messy, but have a warm and comfortable feeling.
"Drinking tea?" Gu Fei took a small electric teapot on the table and put some tea leaves in it, "Or plain water?"
"Boiled water," Jiang Cheng sat down on the small sofa, "I won't be able to fall asleep drinking tea."
Gu Fei took a slice of lemon and put it in the glass, and poured some water for him.
The warm lemonade, the soft sofa, the cozy and warm room that I hadn't felt for a long time, Jiang Cheng leaned on the sofa and held the cup, not wanting to say a word.
"My mother has a low EQ and can't speak her mind." Gu Fei sat in front of the computer and connected the camera's memory card, "Just listen to what she says, don't worry about it."
"En," Jiang Cheng responded, after a while, he couldn't help but ask, "Li Yan..."
"Li Yan really doesn't have a boyfriend," Gu Fei said. After glancing at him, he laughed again, "But Li Yan really... likes men."
"Oh," Jiang Cheng held the cup and covered his face with the rising heat, "Do you all know that he...?"
"Friends know, my mother didn't know where she got it, but she wouldn't say it outside," Gu Fei said while passing the photo, "No one wants to know about this."
"Yes." Jiang Cheng sighed.
As soon as he finished his sigh, he snapped back to his senses and quickly cleared his throat, trying to hide the sigh.
Gu Fei glanced at him and said nothing.
Jiang Cheng simply could not control himself not to over-interpret his eyes, the embarrassment that had not appeared between him and Gu Fei for a long time firmly enveloped him again.
He had to stand up with the cup in his hand and go back and forth in the room.
But the room wasn't that big, and the place where he could walk was three steps away. He felt that he looked like he was fluttering, and he was more embarrassed than sitting.
Finally he stopped in front of the bookcase.
"Can I take a look at the bookcase?" Jiang Cheng asked.
"...I don't even know how to answer," Gu Fei turned to look at him, "Is there anything I can't see in the bookcase, why don't you ask?"
"Ah," Jiang Cheng smiled, "I'm used to it."
"You used to... tutoring was too strict, right?" Gu Fei said.
"Maybe, the whole family is very strict, disciplined, polite, and well-bred," Jiang Cheng looked at the books on the bookcase, "I'm also slow, I should have known that I'm not from their family long ago. There are five members of the family, and I am the most No way…”
"You're fine." Gu Fei looked at the progress bar of the photo transfer.
"It's probably pretty good here." Jiang Cheng remembered the Li Baoguo family and the lame woman he saw just now, yes, in such an environment filled with such a life and such a life, a person like himself Can be considered "good".
"Some things can be seen without comparison," Gu Fei smiled, poured a cup of tea and took a sip, "Whether a person is really 'good', just look at this person, you don't need to look at him Where, who is next to me."
"...You," Jiang Cheng looked at him in surprise, "Suddenly you don't look like the one who gave no papers at this moment."
"Nonsense, when have I ever handed in a blank paper, I only handed it in after I filled it up." Gu Fei said.
"Oh." Jiang Cheng couldn't hold back his joy.
Gu Fei picked up the camera, and the lens was facing him.
"You've been filming for a long time, are you still bothered?" Jiang Cheng said.
"It's not annoying to shoot you," Gu Fei said, "You smile very well... Look."
The smile on Jiang Cheng's face froze, Gu Fei raised the camera and scolded himself a fool.
When he said the first half of the sentence, he felt that what he said was inappropriate, especially when Li Yan's sexuality was "exposed", it would be too ambiguous to say this.
But just to understand Wei, he said one more sentence, and he regretted it before he finished it. One sentence was inappropriate, but he had to insist on finishing it, or it would appear more fake.
But after all was said, he and Jiang Cheng both froze.
He covered his face with the camera, not knowing what to say to ease the atmosphere.
For someone who never has any embarrassment and rarely cares what other people think, the current dilemma is enough to make him speechless.
"After filming this time, Ding Zhuxin should ask you to take another shot," Gu Fei still held up the camera, staring at Jiang Cheng's face in the camera, "If you think the price is right, you can work with her for a long time. It's all kinds of dissatisfaction, but I like you very much today."
"Oh," Jiang Cheng looked to the left, then to the right, then looked at the camera, "So what, I'll ask you, just, what... That, Sister Xin is you... That, she is with you... uh , she is you..."
"Girlfriend?" Gu Fei interrupted him, "No, I said it before, I was young with her, and I called her sister."
"Oh!" Jiang Cheng answered loudly, as if trying to get out of his embarrassment.
"It took so much effort," Gu Fei couldn't help but sigh for him, "I thought you were going to ask Li Yan and me."
"Ah?" Jiang Cheng was stunned for a while, then looked at him in shock, "You and Li Yan? Yes..."
"No!" Gu Fei put down the camera, "Hey, Li Yan and I are friends, do you think I'm like a couple with him?"
"I don't know," Jiang Cheng leaned against the bookcase, and seemed a little helpless to adjust to this kind of conversation, "It doesn't look like it, I think he is more like Liu Fan."
Gu Fei leaned back on the chair and laughed for a long time: "This is what Liu Fan heard and wanted to worry about you."
"...Really." Jiang Cheng glanced at him, smiled, and said nothing.
Not a good bird, but also Li Yan and Gu Fei. The few seemed to have a good relationship, and they would hang out together when everything was okay. They even had a common small meeting point in the steel mill.
But listening to Gu Fei's meaning... With such a good relationship, there are still some people who can't accept it.
Yes, what Pan Zhi said is quite right.
Looseness and tolerance only exist in the second dimension, and the reality is so ruthless.
What about Gu Fei
Jiang Cheng put his head back on the pillow, leaned lightly against the glass door of the bookcase, and looked at Gu Fei who was leaning on the chair and playing with the camera.
I can see clearly what kind of attitude he has. He is not disgusted and can accept it.
What about other than that
When he kissed Gu Fei on the face that day, Gu Fei didn't even react at all. If it were Pan Zhi, he would at least be stunned for a while, and then he would laugh at him.
Although Gu Fei is a person who is not very emotional and angry, his calmness and calmness are still a bit abnormal between two people who are not familiar enough to be so drunk.
But thinking about it now, the reaction the next day was too natural.
So natural.
Jiang Cheng took a sip of lemonade.
Gu Fei is a scumbag, but a smart scumbag.
Jiang Cheng suddenly felt a sense of fatigue that, in fact, everything had been seen through.
Gu Fei probably knew everything, this latest information made him a little bit unable to deal with it, and he couldn't even continue chatting calmly.
After the photos were uploaded, Gu Fei created a folder, marked the date, and then began to retouch the photos.
The mouse slowly swiped through the densely packed photo thumbnails. He didn't like to make pictures in order, he liked to pick them up.
The mouse finally clicked on the piece of Jiang Cheng's collar where his fingers were hooked.
When the photo was opened, he leaned back. Compared with the moment in the scene, the clear freeze that suddenly appeared in front of him was more impactful.
He rested his arms on the arm of the chair, his fingers against his forehead, and whistled softly.
"What about you?" Jiang Cheng suddenly asked at this moment.
Gu Fei reflexively thought that what he said would be "Shut up," but when he realized that what Jiang Cheng said was not what he said, he didn't even dare to turn his head to look at Jiang Cheng.
"Huh?" He shrunk the photo to full screen and adjusted the white balance. "I… what?"
"Are you?" Jiang Cheng asked.
To be honest, Gu Fei never expected that Jiang Cheng, who would be embarrassed at every turn, would suddenly be so direct at this moment, and there was no concealment in his tone.
"Are you?" Gu Fei turned his head.
"Do you know," Jiang Cheng looked at him, "I am asking you now."
Gu Fei was unwilling to answer this question.
Jiang Cheng didn't actually think about it too much, and it didn't have any effect on him. Even if he had any thoughts, he would always keep it in his heart.
But what Jiang Cheng wanted to know, he was a little afraid to give the answer.
If you don't know each other, or you know and pretend you don't know, this kind of relationship will be easier to get along with. If all of them are suddenly spread out, all the attraction and attention will have a clear direction, but it will make people panic.
At least he will be like this, he has not thought about what he wants to do, but once these things become transparent, every word and every look of his may become what he wants to do.
"Forget it," Jiang Cheng sat down on the sofa with the cup, raised his head and let out a long sigh of relief, "Needless to say, I know."
Gu Fei looked at him.
"Da Fei," Jiang Cheng turned his head and looked at him, "I don't really mean anything else, I just want to tell you, if you know, keep it a secret for me, I don't want to… let others know."
"En." Gu Fei nodded. In his impression, this was the first time Jiang Cheng didn't call him Gu Fei.
"It's like you don't want people to know." Jiang Cheng took a sip.
"Threat me?" Gu Fei laughed.
"Yes," Jiang Cheng smiled and nodded, "You have a handle on me."
"I will keep it a secret." Gu Fei said.
