Cheng Chu ordered a newly opened hot pot restaurant on the Internet.
When the two arrived, it was already dark, and the small waiting stools at the door were full of people.
The waiter led the two into the private room.
"I must treat today." Cheng Chu said while flipping through the menu.
Seeing her happy face, Gu Miao couldn't help but feel joy in her heart, "Is there any good news?"
The girl held her head, her bright peach eyes became brighter and brighter under the light.
"I'm going to give a solo concert."
In K University, Professor Philip admired her very much, not only gave her many opportunities to experience, but also introduced many contacts of music festivals.
She had already made a name for herself in the industry abroad, so almost as soon as she returned to China, offers flooded in overwhelmingly.
Gu Miao looked at the excited girl, her dark eyes filled with a smile.
"Great." His deep voice was filled with relief, but he felt that he was not so happy with his promotion.
The girl nodded, "However, I may be busy during this time, and I may have to go back to my own house."
"It's okay." Gu Miao held her delicate hand, rubbed it a few times, and said warmly, "You used to wait for me when I was busy, now it's my turn to wait for you."
Cheng Chu couldn't help but laugh.
In the middle of the scorching hot air, she held her hands up and looked at the man opposite who was washing dishes for her, only to feel warm in her heart.
The sea market in winter is cloudy and sunny.
Knowing that Cheng Chu was coming back, Fu Rong ordered her aunt to cook a table of dishes.
"When is your recital?" Fu Rong clipped Cheng Chu's ribs and looked at her lovingly, "Leave me a few more tickets, I'll send them to relatives."
"Okay, okay." Cheng Chu stopped her hand that kept picking vegetables, "It's alright, it's alright, I'll do it myself."
"Okay, okay." Fu Rong complained dissatisfiedly, "After going out for so long, I don't even want my mother to take vegetables when I come back."
Cheng Chu sighed and said helplessly, "Then you can clip it."
"Okay." Only then did Fu Rong show a smile, and kept adding vegetables to Cheng Chu's bowl, until it piled up into a hill before stopping her chopsticks.
The restaurant was very quiet. Cheng Chu ate very elegantly and never made any noise.
Fu Rong asked, "Are you free tomorrow?"
Cheng Chu raised his eyes, "What's the matter?"
She made an appointment with Gu Miao to have dinner together tomorrow.
"Mrs. Lin invited our family to dinner a few days ago. Since you are back, let's go together."
Cheng Chu frowned in embarrassment, "Can you not go?"
"No." Fu Rong said decisively, "The Lin family and our family have had close business contacts in the past few years. She knew that you were back, and she specifically told me to take you with you. It's fine if your brother doesn't go, you must go."
She looked at Cheng Chu with a look of "you are too ignorant", and her tone was serious.
Cheng Chu had no choice but to agree, "Okay, okay."
Seeing her promise, Fu Rong finally understood, but after a few seconds, she couldn't help but nag: "You should dress better tomorrow, you can't be casual, you know?"
"Okay, okay, I know." Cheng Chu said perfunctorily.
After eating a meal, I was a little depressed. I closed the door and got rid of Fu Rong's long-winded words. The world seemed to be quiet in an instant.
It was night, and the dim lights in the garden came in, and Cheng Chu stood in front of the window and watched.
In the cold winter, the red plum trees are blooming in the cold wind.
The phone in his pocket vibrated, it was Gu Miao's phone.
Cheng Chu picked it up quickly.
"Hey, Brother Miao."
The voice over there was low and full of anticipation.
"Chuchu, what do you want to eat tomorrow?"
They haven't seen each other for several days since Cheng Chu started working on the recital.
There is no moon tonight, only a few lonely stars dot the sky.
Cheng Chu heard the excitement in his tone, and said unbearably, "Brother Miao, I'm sorry, there is something going on at my house tomorrow, and I may not be able to have dinner with you."
The air froze for a moment.
I don't know how long it took before Gu Miao's hoarse voice swayed slowly through the phone line.
"It's okay." His voice was filled with disappointment, but he still said softly: "You haven't been with your family for so long, stay with them more."
He paused and said softly, "I...it's okay."
"Brother Miao, I'm sorry." Cheng Chu's heart became even more sour when he heard his words, "I'll move in with you after I've been busy for a while, okay?"
The night wind was very cold, Gu Miao stood on the balcony, and the lonely lights in the distance passed through the long night, all of which were reflected in his dark eyes.
His fingertips were cold, but a little warmth overflowed because of the girl's words.
"Okay." He replied in a hoarse voice before hanging up.
The weather on the second day was very clear, and in the evening, the sky was like fire and clouds, and the deep red sunset dipped the earth, as if the winter was no longer cold.
Cheng Chu walked into the restaurant holding Fu Rong's hand.
The waiter on the side led the way diligently. Fu Rong touched Cheng Chu's hand and said with satisfaction, "Wait, remember to call your uncle and auntie, you know?"
Cheng Chu sighed silently, "Got it."
She was a little helpless, and she was not a teenage child, so she should understand this kind of politeness.
This is a time-honored restaurant that has been open for more than 20 years. Cheng Chu's grandparents often brought her here when she was a child.
It's been so many years now, and it's still the same place.
The quaint decoration adds years to the restaurant, and even the wooden door of the box has some traces of the years.
As soon as she entered the door, Mrs. Lin came up to her, took Cheng Chu's hand, and her face bloomed with a smile, "Oh, Chu Chu is really getting more and more beautiful as she grows up. She was a beauty when she was a child. Now, when she grows up, I am an old woman. It's heartwarming to see."
"Hello, Auntie Lin." Cheng Chu hurriedly spread his signature smile, "You are also getting younger and younger, and you haven't changed much from before. When you go out, people think you are my sister."
"Oh, this little mouth is so sweet." Mrs. Lin's folds piled up, and she took her by the hand and took her aside.
"Come here, Chu Chu, let me introduce you to me. This is my nephew who also studies music. The two of you should have a lot in common. Young people, let's make friends."
The smile on Cheng Chu's face stagnated, and she turned back to see Fu Rong with an encouraging look on her face, and then she realized that it was a blind date feast.
She suppressed the temper in her heart, took a few deep breaths, and then looked at Mrs. Lin's nephew.
The bright light fell, as if it cast a clear shadow on all the surrounding ornaments.
The handsome man was standing not far away, with a long and beautiful body, his gentle eyes were like the wind of spring, so softly blowing over.
Cheng Chu's heart tightened, "Yan Shi?"
The man smiled softly, "Chuchu, long time no see."
When Mrs. Lin listened to the two of them, her originally small eyes turned into a line of laughter, "Oh, so the two of them know each other. What kind of fate is this? Look at it."
Fu Rong also echoed, "Yes, yes, I originally heard that Yan Shi played the violin, and I thought, although I am in a school, I may not know each other, but today, it is really fate. "
Cheng Chu looked at Zhou Yanshi next to him.
With a relaxed expression, he greeted Fu Rong very naturally, neither being polite nor overly flattering.
Fu Rong was obviously very satisfied with him, and inside and outside of her words, she wished that the two of them would be together immediately.
This meal was like a carnival for three people, Cheng Chu sat on the side and smiled politely.
When leaving the box, Mrs. Lin took Cheng Chu's hand and said, "Oh, I heard that there is a new dance drama recently. I took two tickets and wait for the two of you to watch it."
Cheng Chu was about to refuse, but Fu Rong hurriedly said, "Okay, okay, young people should go out and walk around more, Xiaozhou should drive today, and go with Chu Chu later."
Zhou Yanshi smiled and replied, "Okay, Auntie."
When they walked to the first floor of the restaurant, the driver had already driven the car over. Seeing them coming, he hurriedly bent down and opened the car door.
Fu Rong and Mrs. Lin waved to them through the car window, smiling happily, "You two take a good look."
Cheng Chu smiled and waved, "Okay."
The night in the sea market was very cold, the lights at the entrance of the restaurant were dim, and several middle-aged people who were drunk were supported and stumbled out.
The smile on Cheng Chu's lips cooled, and he said lightly, "Then I'll go home."
"Chuchu." Zhou Yanshi lowered his voice, showing some caution: "Dance drama, don't you watch it?"
Cheng Chu pursed his lips, looked up at him, and said, "Yan Shi, you know the purpose of the parents, and you also know that it is me who is here at night, so why do you agree."
She didn't understand that whether she was a freshman or a freshman at K University last year, she had already refused to be straightforward enough.
The night scene of the sea market is very beautiful, and the stray lights are reflected in the bright eyes of the girl.
But there was not a trace of excitement in those eyes, not even the polite smile that was forced.
Zhou Yanshi's heart was empty, and his lower lip moved silently, but he couldn't say anything to explain.
He knows.
I know the parents' intentions, and I also know that it is Cheng Chu who is here today.
But the unwillingness in his heart overcomes grace and reason.
He thought humbly, after all, there is still a little hope, right.
They have similar family backgrounds and have the same hobbies. When they talk about music, there are always endless topics to talk about. But what can her boyfriend talk to her
New game? Or how much money did you make in the new quarter
The dim light in the distance fell slowly through the leaves of the holly.
Cheng Chu's phone buzzed twice, she lowered her eyes and said to Zhou Yanshi, "My boyfriend's phone, why don't you go first, I'll go back by myself in a while."
Zhou Yanshi's voice was low, "Then go pick it up first."
Cheng Chu walked to the corner on high heels and answered the phone, "Hello, Brother Miao."
The window on the second floor of the restaurant opened a small crack, and the cold wind came in. Gu Miao stood in front of the window, and there was a bit of chill in her voice.
"How was the party with the family?"
The girl's voice was as gentle as usual, "It's good."
Gu Miao's hands were stagnant, and the light in her eyes dimmed.
There were a few cautious temptations in his voice, "Today, besides your family, is there anyone else?"
Cheng Chu paused for a few seconds and said, "There is another aunt who I knew before, why did you ask this all of a sudden?"
The man's voice was a little hoarse, swaying in the cold night wind, like fallen leaves rubbing against the rough floor.
"Nothing, just ask."
Cheng Chu turned his head and saw that Zhou Yanshi was still standing there waiting, anxious to speak to him clearly.
She pursed her lips and whispered, "Brother Miao, my mother called me. I'll call you later, okay?"
The man lowered his eyes and looked silently at the girl standing in the corner of the first floor.
She was dressed beautifully today, her hair was curled into big waves and pinned with delicate diamond hairpins. On a cold winter night, she only wore a long dress and a thin beige trench coat, which looked stylish and elegant.
Gu Miao's throat was dry, and the bitterness in her heart could not be suppressed.
The night in Haishi was cold and long, his fingertips were stiff, and his voice was hard and suppressed, "Okay."
For the first time in his life, he couldn't wait to hang up the phone first.
Jiang Xing appeared out of nowhere, patted him on the shoulder, and said anxiously, "I finally found you, Yuehong's Mr. Zhang has asked several times where you are going, and you can tell me about you, but I couldn't tell you a few days ago. , I temporarily changed my mind yesterday, but I couldn't find anyone here for a long time."
He looked at Gu Miao's reddened eyes, and the words of complaining suddenly stagnated.
"Old, old Gu, you won't be told to cry by me, right?" Jiang Xing said in a trembling voice, "You, you, are you crazy?"
Gu Miao lowered her eyes, her eyes gradually became cold, and her voice was indifferent, "It's okay, I was standing at the window just now, and the wind was a bit strong."
"Damn, I said." Jiang Xing took a few steps forward to close the window and whispered, "It's such a cold weather, who opened the window."
Gu Miao interrupted coldly: "Let's go, didn't you say President Zhang is looking for someone?"
"Eh, yes, yes, let's go."
Gu Miao clenched her hands so white that she ran away from the window.
The night wind drifted over, with a few wisps of light floral fragrance.
Cheng Chu hung up the phone, turned around and said to Zhou Yanshi, "I'll make it clear to my mother when I go back. Let's go first."
She stopped the car, got into it, and didn't look back at him.
There were a few birds flying in the sky, and their cry was solitary and mournful.
Cheng Chu got into the taxi and started to call Gu Miao, but after making several calls in a row, the other side was never connected.
Maybe busy with work.
Cheng Chu looked at the few lights passing by and thought sullenly.
When she got home, Gu Miao still didn't return her call.
The villa was very quiet at night. Fu Rong and Mrs. Lin went to play cards and hadn't returned home.
Cheng Chu fell asleep in a daze.
She slept soundly that night, and when she woke up, the alarm had been pressed several times.
A ray of morning light came in through the gap in the curtains.
Cheng Chu's eyes were still a little unclear, and he fumbled to open the phone.
More than a dozen Gu Miao missed calls were displayed on the screen.
She was inexplicably flustered and hurried back.
After a few seconds, the other side was connected.
"Brother Miao, what's wrong?" Cheng Chu asked hurriedly.
The girl's voice, with the laziness that she just woke up from, slowly fell into Gu Miao's ears along the phone line.
His fingers were clenched white, and his voice was hoarse and difficult, "I'm sick."
"Ah?" Cheng Chu was startled and asked anxiously, "Where are you, the hospital? I'll find you now."
"I, I'm at home." He coughed a few times before saying.
Cheng Chu hung up the phone and ran to Gu Miao's house immediately.
Fortunately, his house is very close, only ten minutes by car.
Cheng Chu got out of the car, hurried up the stairs, and opened the door.
A few strands of morning light fell in and sprinkled on the dark gray sheets. The man was lying on the bed, with a deep circle of blue and black under his eyes, and his face was pale.
Hearing the sound, he raised his eyes sharply.
Those dark eyes fell into the light, but the bottom of the eyes turned red in an instant.
The room was quiet, he lifted the quilt, ran over and hugged the girl at once, so strong that he seemed to rub her into his body.
"What's wrong?" Cheng Chu brushed his back, thinking that he was not feeling well, so he became petulant.
The man's arms were hot and hot, as if a fire was burning, which could burn her out in an instant.
"Chuchu." He suppressed his voice and called in her ear like a collapse.
Cheng Chu comforted her warmly, "I'm here."
He sniffed and said almost aggrievedly, "You are still willing to take care of me."
"Huh?" Cheng Chu didn't know why.
The man hugged her tighter, with a hint of water in his dark eyes, and his voice was full of urgent pleading, "Don't want me."
"please."
