In Gu Yan's memory, he has always been deeply impressed by a sentence Gu Li said.
- People are alive, only fate cannot escape.
Gu Li was not from a famous family. Although she was a university professor before her death, she had suffered miserably because of Zhang Pingsheng all her life, but she still couldn't let go of her attachment to Zhang Pingsheng.
People, like fate, are sometimes unpredictable.
No matter how deeply the other party hurts you, as long as you close your eyes, his love for you can be seen in a dream, and love can be deeply rooted in your heart.
The same goes for Gu Yan.
Seeing Jian Jie in a slim suit, standing tall and capable not far from him, his softest heart swelled to the point of panic like a fermented dough.
There is only a dog between him and Jane.
Almost instantly, he understood what Gu Li meant.
You can't avoid certain things if you try to avoid them deliberately.
"This is...your dog?" Jane coughed lightly, and the sound from her vocal chords was slightly embarrassed.
In the past few days, I have not been feeling well physically, and my heart is too stressed to sleep well all night. I couldn't help but ask the leader for a day off. I didn't expect to drive back, and I was almost scared by this person and dog. He threw away his driver's license.
"Ah." Gu Yan opened his mouth and only made one sound.
In fact, Gu Yan didn't want to lie, but when he opened his mouth, all the sounds he could utter were gathered into one word 'ah', and he stood there dumbfounded, like a frozen pillar of human flesh.
"You, live here?" Jane Jie pointed around.
"Ah." Gu Yan was about to shake his head, but only opened his mouth once.
Yuan Bao lay on the ground, wagging his tail, sobbing twice, and moved to Gu Yan pitifully, drooping his ears to make Gu Yan pay attention to him.
Jian Jie reached out and touched the tip of her nose, trying to ease the embarrassment.
"I'm going to park the car." Jane said.
"I'm going for a walk with the dog." Gu Yan wiped Yuan Bao's head vigorously, as if trying to erase all his nervousness.
"Wait." Jane's voice became anxious.
He subconsciously wants to keep Gu Yan. No matter what the reason is, he doesn't want Gu Yan to disappear from his sight all at once. Find out what happened.
Even if Gu Yan didn't want to mention it again, even if Gu Yan and him drifted away, this was the silent bell locked in his heart, and the person who untied it had to tie the bell. Except for Gu Yan, he couldn't find the answer to the question.
Gu Yan also felt the urgency in Jian Jie's words, and his expression was moved.
The slightly thin handsome face that was close at hand overlapped with the stubborn blue face ten years ago, making Gu Yan unable to open his mouth to refuse.
"I'm right here." Gu Yan said, feeling a little awkward after speaking, and quickly added: "You go to the car, I'll sit there and wait for you."
Looking at Gu Yan's fingers, there are a few rest chairs not far away, surrounded by neatly trimmed green trees and flowers and plants. Although it has become dead branches and rotten leaves in winter, it still shows the intention of the community property.
"Yeah." Jane Jie glanced at the dog frightened by his car again, wanted to reach out to touch it, but turned around and held back.
Watching the rear of Jane Jie's car disappear into the entrance of the underground parking lot, Gu Yan immediately bent down, holding his knees with both hands and gasping for breath.
The winter wind was so cold that it made his mouth dry and numb.
Watching Jian Jie drive away, Yuan Bao found the guts from somewhere, opened his mouth and screamed at the entrance of the parking lot, and Gu Yan patted his forehead to stop the sound.
"Silly dog, you are just like your father. You only call him when someone leaves, and it's an afterthought." Gu Yan took the dog leash, dragged Yuan Bao, and walked to the rest chair that Jane pointed out just now with shaking legs. sat down.
To be honest, he really wanted to escape now.
He didn't know how to face Jane Jie, he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say other than panting.
Some things have faded over time in Gu Yan's mind. Although they can't be said without a trace, Gu Yan really doesn't want to think about them.
That dark, helpless, and confused afternoon was the intersection of Gu Yan's life turning point. He never thought that when he stood still and turned around, he and Jane had already gone the opposite way.
Two different people, two different paths.
Although Yuan Bao was stupid, he also understood human nature. The dog saw that Gu Yan was a little strange, and sat on the spot with his dog's head tilted, and groaned twice.
"Shall we go?" Gu Yan said to Yuan Bao.
Yuan Bao didn't know, so he turned around twice, squatted beside Gu Yan, and put the dog's head on Gu Yan's knee.
Jian Jie turned the steering wheel with both hands, the car quickly backed up, and suddenly parked in the parking space. In a second, Jian Jie almost jumped out of the car. In a rare panic, he pressed the car key twice to lock the car, then turned and ran out .
There was a ray of dawn in front of his eyes, through the cold and damp basement, forcing back the darkness around him, paving a bright road.
And Gu Yan is the source of light beyond the dawn, Jian Jie panted, holding back the breath rising and falling in his chest due to excitement, ignoring the sourness rising from the tip of his nose, and reaching out his hand to wipe the corner of his eyes.
He knew that Gu Yan was not far away, sitting there, waiting for him.
—
Gu Yan waited for about ten minutes, the leather shoes on Jane Jie's feet slapped the ground, and trotted over from a distance.
Looking at the person who almost bumped into him just now, Yuan Bao pricked up his ears and made a vigilant gesture.
"Good dog, get down." Gu Yan said.
Yuan Bao wagged his tail and ignored him.
Jian Jie gradually approached, Yuan Bao stood up, with his right hind leg behind him, his upper body slightly prostrate, as if he wanted to pounce on Jian Jie when he came over.
"You dog!" Gu Yan took out from his pocket a half-bitten molar stick that was beyond recognition, and yelled at Yuan Bao.
In the next second, Yuan Bao stared at the teething stick as if he saw a baby, groaned, frantically wagging his tail and sticking out his tongue, forgetting the 'enemy' Jane Jie into the shit, and it will be excreted in a while.
"Either say you're stupid." Gu Yan twitched the corner of his mouth, stuffed the teething stick into Yuan Bao's mouth, and tied the dog leash to the rest chair.
Jian Jie took a few glances at the side, and found that Yuan Bao had let himself gnaw the molar stick full of saliva and didn't pay attention to him, so she waved at Gu Yan, motioned to Gu Yan and said, "Go to my house?"
"Don't go, it hasn't gone to the toilet yet." Gu Yan said.
Jian Jie bypassed Yuan Bao and sat next to Gu Yan.
The two were separated by more than ten centimeters, silent.
"you... ... "
"that... ... "
The two looked at each other.
"You speak first... ... "
"You speak first... ... "
Eyes on each other again.
Jane Jie laughed first, with creases at the corners of her eyes.
"You live here too?" Gu Yan asked without being vague.
"Aren't you?" Jane asked back.
"Ah..." Gu Yan was perfunctory.
Looking at Gu Yan's simple winter clothes beside him, thinking of Gu Yan's clothes when he saw Gu Yan a few times ago, and thinking of Gu Yan's work in the club's KTV, Jane still had some extra thoughts.
Gu Yan was a bit out of tune with this community full of single-family houses and buildings within buildings.
Looking at the golden retriever who was excitedly gnawing on the molar stick, Jian Jie suppressed the doubts and incomprehensions in his heart.
He didn't want to open his mouth to ask.
Raising dogs for others should be Gu Yan's second job.
The two had their own concerns, and the reunion after a long absence did not arouse their enthusiasm.
The sky seemed to be getting colder. From the corner of her eyes, Jian Jie saw that Gu Yan's hands were red and his brows were clustered, and he invited again: "Come to my house and sit down."
Gu Yan wanted to refuse, but seeing Jian Jie's sincere expression, he couldn't refuse, so he could only nod.
Jane Jie heaved a sigh of relief and stood up.
"That..." Gu Yan suddenly stopped Jian Jie.
"Huh?" Jane turned back.
"I don't live here." Gu Yan said, "I..."
I raised a dog for Lin Xiaotian for a few days.
These words were swallowed back by Gu Yan.
"I watch dogs for a few days for others."
"I know." Jane smiled.
The two were in front of each other, and the latter was leading a dog as they walked around the unsprayed fountain not far away. Jane pointed to the building next to him: "I live here."
Gu Yan admired in his heart, Jian Jie was excellent in the first place, and it is reasonable to be able to live in such a house now.
These buildings should be buildings within buildings, some distance away from the single-family villas. Lin Xiaotian's house is behind Jian Jie's house, so it's normal that the two of them haven't met each other.
"It seems that you are developing well." Gu Yan said some polite words.
Jane pressed the elevator button, and said casually: "Fortunately, this is a slum in a wealthy area. My mother likes the house here. With my income, I can borrow money to buy a smaller one."
Gu Yan led the dog into the elevator, secretly sucking his tongue.
If this is a slum in a wealthy area, then the small house he lived in in a remote city village without heating, air conditioning, and no furniture can basically be said to be a stinky ditch in a slum.
No matter the smelly ditch, at least it can accommodate people.
Jane Jie's house is on the sixth floor, the top floor.
After getting out of the elevator, Jane opened the door according to the password: "Come in, you don't need to change your shoes, and I'm not in the mood to clean up recently, it will be a bit messy."
Gu Yan pointed at Yuan Bao: "Shall I lock it outside?"
"No need." Jian Jie didn't turn her head back: "There is a balcony upstairs, and there is a lot of space, so it's okay to let it stay."
Gu Yan nodded, just as he was about to take Yuanbao in as Jane Jie said, he saw a thick stack of invitation cards with gold letters on a red background on the shoe cabinet in the hallway.
In an instant, Gu Yan's rationality, which had drifted to the sky, came back by himself.
How could he have forgotten that Jane Jie was getting married.
This room should be his and Jia Bei's wedding room, and Jane Jie invited him up, which was also a greeting between old classmates.
For the first time, Gu Yan was at a loss, and stood next to the shoe cabinet in the hallway with the dog, looking at the stack of invitations, his ears were burning, and his heart was throbbing with pain.
"What's wrong?"
Jane Jie waited for a while, but did not see Gu Yan coming in.
"You..." Gu Yan reluctantly raised the corner of his mouth, casually pointed at the stack of invitations, and said pretending to be strong: "You came suddenly, I didn't prepare the ceremony...."
Jian Jie's pupils suddenly shrank together.
He didn't notice the stack of invitations at all!
I don't even know when that stack of invitations was put there!
The only possibility flashed in his mind, and the two looked at each other, one panicked and the other helpless.
"Will I disturb...you two?" Gu Yan asked with a brush.
Jian Jie waved his hand, and just about to explain, there was a sound of pressing the password from the door behind Gu Yan. A few seconds later, Jia Bei opened the door, and suddenly met Gu Yan who was inside the door.
Time freezes instantly.
