It's snowing in Taiyuan.
The heavy snow covered the sky and covered the ancient city with a history of 5,000 years in the music of the cello. Its age is as old as the recorded history of civilization in China.
In front of its stalwart body and majestic silhouette, London is just a trading port established by passing merchants on the banks of the Thames when Jesus was forty-seven years old; Berlin is just a small village around the linden tree planted by Prussia thousands of years ago; As for the short three hundred years in New York—it can only be said that it is still a toddler.
Tianhe was wearing earphones, sitting in front of the small bar in the car, looking at the heavy snow flying all over the sky outside the car window, while Guan Yue was leaning on the sofa and fell asleep.
Pro: "This is a beautiful city."
"Yeah." Tianhe looked at the iced coffee in the crystal cup and replied, "His hometown."
Shanxi is where the territory of the prosperous Tang Dynasty began, with a strong humanistic atmosphere. From the generation of Guan Yue's grandfather, the Guan family has spared no effort to promote the ancestral precepts of their children and grandchildren to study and revitalize the family business. However, the IQ of the Guan family's children seemed to be sucked away by Guan Yue. Among the big family, Guan Yue was also the most promising one.
Tianhe knew that Guan Yue wanted to return to Chinese nationality, but once naturalized, they would no longer be able to obtain a legally recognized marriage.
Neither the Chinese gods nor the ancestors of the Guan family would be idle to bless them. This was also the source of the conflict between Tianhe and Guan Yue.
Now they are both Chinese, and they can no longer obtain marriage certificates from the Civil Affairs Bureau. Although there are tens of thousands of lovers in the world, they don’t necessarily have to get married if they want to be together, but there are many issues related to the property, marriage and children’s inheritance of the two families. Without a marriage contract, there will be too many troubles.
Of course these are not important anymore.
Tianhe put a hot towel on Guan Yue's face, Guan Yue woke up, wiped his face and sat up, the iron door of the Guan family's mansion opened, the car drove in, the old butler was waiting in a cloak and crutches.
"Master Wen, long time no see," the old butler said, "Hello."
"Hello, Lord Gui."
Tianhe is not used to being called "Young Master". From top to bottom, no matter what his position is, be it a driver or a chef, they all call him "Tianhe", at most "Boss" or "Mr. Wen", but He knew that this was the strict rules of Guan Yue's family - a completely different rule from Wen's family, so he didn't insist and nodded.
Guan Yue said, "How is the situation?"
"Everyone is here, just wait for the young master." The old housekeeper said, "The master heard that the young master Wen came back together, so please please, the great master must also be willing to meet you."
Tianhe didn't say anything about his breakup with Guan Yue. I don't know if Guan Yue told the Guan family, but it seems that he hasn't? But Tianhe didn't say anything "it's inappropriate", and decided to come back with Guan Yue in order to accompany him to see him for the last time. At least there was someone who could be by his side when he lost his dear one, so Nodding his head, he replied, "That's overstepping the rules."
Guan Yue took Tianhe with him, and changed into snow-covered coats, and the servants helped them change into woolen winter clothes. Tianhe's clothes were made for him by the Guan family when he came to visit several years ago, and they looked a little small. Tianhe washed his face and hands, followed Guan Yue, and followed the old housekeeper through the corridor, feeling like he had entered a Republic of China drama and became the young mistress of such a big family.
Inside and outside the courtyard, there were people standing all over the place. When Guan Yue came back, all eyes turned to Guan Yue and Tianhe behind him.
The old butler said, "Master Wen, please stay for a while."
Guan Yue stepped into the house, Tianhe glanced at the house, Guan Yue's father was kneeling on the ground, four doctors came in and out, the life support had been fully used, there was still faint crying inside.
"Grandpa," Guan Yue said in Shanxi dialect, "you are back."
Everyone hurriedly stepped aside and called Guan Yue to go to the bed, while Tian He quietly walked aside and stood under the plum blossom tree.
After a while, Tianhe was called inside again. Tianhe understood Shanxi dialect and called him by name. Before the old housekeeper came out to invite him, he went in and knelt down in front of the sick bed. Guan Yue was holding his grandfather's hand, his eyes were red .
The old man took his withered hand out of Guan Yue's, said something in Shanxi dialect, put his hand on Tianhe's forehead, touched his head weakly, then slipped down, and died.
The room began to cry, sobbing and sobbing, howling and howling. Tianhe's eyes were moist, and he turned to look at Guan Yue. He didn't understand the last sentence, but it must have been something like "good boy, take care of each other in the future". Then, the uncles got up, the doctor stepped forward to remove the life support device, Guan Yue bowed with tears, and put his hands on his grandfather's face, making the deceased look calm, took an ancient coin handed to him by his father, and put it on the in the grandfather's mouth.
Tianhe and his grandchildren retreated together, the female relatives outside the door came in, kowtowed, and cried bitterly, and then the female relatives came out, leaving behind Guan Zhenghan, his cousins, and the eldest son Guan Yue.
"Master, please come to the side hall for tea." A servant came over to invite, Tianhe looked into the granddaughter's generation, and saw a girl nodded towards Tianhe, signaling with her lips to wait a while.
Tian He also nodded, followed the servant, and after walking a few steps, he suddenly heard Guan Yue crying loudly in the room.
Tianhe stopped in his tracks, feeling a little unbearable. He knew that before Guan's grandfather died, in order not to make him more sad, Guan Yue had been holding back tears, but at the moment when his grandfather's heartbeat stopped and he took off the ventilator, Guan Yue finally Emotionally broken.
Pu Luo: "I suggest you stay by Guan Yue's side now, he must need you very much."
Tianhe: "According to the rules here, I can't stay here. They treat me like a granddaughter-in-law who hasn't been married. I know he needs company very much, but in front of weddings and funerals, mistakes are absolutely not allowed."
Pro: "People are more important than rules."
Tianhe: "I think so too, but we can't make trouble for him now."
It's a pity that Guan Yue doesn't know that hearing is the last consciousness that a person loses, but maybe the moment when his grandfather drifted in the endless sea of consciousness and cut off all connections with the world, he could still see the little Guan Yue kneeling in the void , The scene where you reach out and wipe your tears.
Tianhe sat down in the tea room and looked around. This was Guan Zhenghan's tea room, and there were a few books piled up beside him.
"Guan Yue's grandparents can't read," Tianhe said, "but they are very sensible."
"I thought he didn't know you were together," said Puro.
Tianhe replied: "At the beginning, we didn't tell Grandpa, but with so many relatives in the Guan family, someone must have hinted at him every now and then. I think the old man should have known about it a long time ago."
For many years, the Guan family and the Wen family have always been family friends. They have been dealing with each other since their grandfathers. The Guan family once thought of marrying their adopted eldest daughter to Wen Tianheng or Wen Tianyue. His father, Wen Yuankai, also brought Tianhe to Guan's house several times. When he was a child, Guan Yue took Tianhe to play around the house and taught him to read Tang poems. Guan's father and mother also liked Tianhe, but those memories meant nothing to Tianhe. , are a little fuzzy.
The point of bombing the Guan family was when they established a romantic relationship after they grew up.
Guan Yue took Tianhe home, and the day he told his parents, Guan Zhenghan was really almost out of breath, so he drank a whole bottle of Tianwang Buxin Pill while trembling. Guan Yue naturally did not dare to tell his grandfather, fearing that his heart would not be able to take it.
But from today's perspective, Guan Yue's grandfather didn't care much about this matter, maybe he did, but when he was dying, he only hoped that his beloved grandson would be happy, and nothing else was important.
Tianhe: "What I'm most afraid of now is... um... fighting for family property, which will cause deeper harm to Guan Yue."
"The concept of death really confuses me," said Puro.
Tianhe: "It's all going to pass. When Dad passed away, I was also very puzzled."
Pro: "Have you got the answer yet?"
Tianhe: "No, maybe only on the day when I walk into death, can I get the real answer."
The second group of relatives passed by outside the tea room. Not long after, it was the Guan family's servants' turn to pass, and everyone went to kowtow to the old man of the Guan family.
Tianhe: "I remember when Grandpa was still there, almost no one went to see him."
Pu Luo: "When you're alive, why don't you get along with each other more?"
Tianhe said blankly: "I don't know, people are like this."
Tianhe poured tea for himself, and suddenly felt that the teacup looked familiar, so he turned it over and took a look. It was bought for Guan Yue's father at Sotheby's that year. This set of cups and pots only costs 800,000 yuan, which is not expensive, but Guan Zhenghan likes it very much. He specially made a low table for the tea set and a backrest for sitting. Hollow carvings, a tea table, can be worth a Rolls-Royce.
"The Guan family is really rich." Tianhe said, "When I was with Guan Yue, I suspected that his family didn't make paper but printed money."
In the year of graduation, after establishing a relationship with Guan Yue, Tianhe felt that the person in front of him was crazy, and desperately stuffed himself with gifts, as if he couldn't express his love for him except to buy things for himself.
Although Guan Yue has always been this style, but in the past, at least he would wait for Tianhe to finish saying "buy this for me" before Guan Yue took out the card.
When they were still in love, Tianhe only felt very touched, but later he couldn't take it anymore, and told Guan Yue not to buy things for himself, and the house couldn't be piled up. Guan Yue's solution to this is that you can buy another house to store your favorite things.
"I just said it's beautiful," said Tianhe Chaoguanyue, "but I don't want to own it! My home is almost turning into an art museum."
Guan Yue bought a set of beautiful ceramic plates for Tian He, the reason was that Tian He passed by the shop window of the buyer's shop, stopped for three seconds, and said to Guan Yue, "It's so beautiful."
The set of porcelain plates was packed and sent home the next day. The butler directed the servants to take them out one by one, saying, "This was given to the Duke of Windsor, and it may have been auctioned off because of charity. And, your aesthetics are really good."
"But I don't want to eat on the same plate as the Duke of Windsor." Tianhe said, "Let's put it on the plate with the bottom facing out, so that guests will know that our family has the Duke of Windsor's plate."
The housekeeper liked the set plate very much, and said with a smile, "I need to order a new cabinet."
Tianhe couldn't learn the traditional "family management" lessons at all, so he waved his hands and said, "Please decide for yourself."
Russian oil paintings, Indian handmade decorations, Persian wool felt, Chinese blue and white porcelain, Japanese samurai swords, Nepalese Buddha statues, Tibetan Thangkas... as long as the unit price is less than 100,000 pounds, and the set is less than 200,000 pounds Anything, as long as you take a look and show a surprised and admiring look, you will find it in your home when you wake up the next day.
If the price exceeds this price, Guan Yue will hesitate for a full three seconds before nodding, do you like it? Have the clerk deliver it home.
But just because I like it doesn't mean I want it to appear in my home! Tianhe collapsed.
Tian He had no doubts that if the items in the museum were clearly priced and Guan Yue had enough money, he might move the entire Louvre to him. If things go on like this, sooner or later Guan Yue will steal the "Mona Lisa" to please him. Fortunately, "The Last Supper" is painted on the wall, which is fine.
Luxury brands from all walks of life also came to the door more frequently than before, bringing all kinds of new styles to the sky and picking them up, and they made twenty sets of clothes. When going out for dinner in the evening, Tianhe would enter a restaurant randomly, and Guan Yue's assistant would reveal his status as a VIP, and ask people to close the shop for him to stroll around slowly without being disturbed.
Tianhe didn't like being followed when he went out, so Guan Yue gave up after persisting for a few times. For a period of time, Guan Yue didn't move much, Tianhe thought it was calm, but when he entered the academy, he received special care from the professors, and only then did he know that Guan Yue had sent his class a set of computer servers for experiments.
"I want to give you the whole world." Guan Yue said to Tianhe, "It's just that the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower are too expensive. When my brother has money, he will buy them for you with his own money."
Tianhe Fue, glanced at the butler, and asked everyone to avoid the man who was about to buy the Arc de Triomphe and the Eiffel Tower for a while. When no one was there, he took one of the porcelain plates and said to Guan Yue: "Didn't you find this? Put things at home, the style is very, no, very good.”
Guan Yue glanced, showing a questioning look, meaning "Really? Why do I think it's okay?".
Tianhe was helpless, he wanted to improve Guan Yue's taste, but he was afraid that if he said too much, he would appear to despise him as a nouveau riche. In fact, Guan Yue is quite good in the aesthetics of Chinese culture. The things given to Tianhe are very beautiful as long as they have something to do with the East, but the things of the Western genre are really anxiety-provoking.
In the afternoon, Guan Yue took Tianhe to London to have dinner and listen to an opera. Now Tianhe would be terrified whenever he went out, and took every step of the way. When he stopped at the door of a tapestry shop, he only had to turn his head to look at the window, and Guan Yue would turn around, showing an expression of preparing to buy something.
Tianhe glanced at Guan Yue hesitantly: "I... want to go in and have a look..."
Guan Yue pushed open the door for Tianhe, and Tianhe immediately raised his hand to signal Guan Yue not to mess around, Guan Yue nodded his head gentlemanly, and stood aside, waiting to pay at any time.
Tianhe asked the clerk to fetch a woolen tapestry from the window, and looked down at the pattern carefully. He didn't want to own it, just because the pattern attracted his attention: the regular patterns woven by craftsmen on the tapestry reminded him of an image of a function, and this image might enlighten him on a topic he was temporarily stuck on.
Guan Yue turned slightly sideways, leaning against the counter, Tianhe concentrated on looking at the tapestry and thinking, while Guan Yue began to observe Tianhe's expression, so as to judge how much he liked this thing.
"Thank you." Tianhe smiled at the clerk, just as Guan Yue took out the card, Tianhe quickly snatched the card away, and dragged Guan Yue away.
Guan Yue looked at Tianhe, Tianhe said: "I really don't need it, I just thought of something else from the pattern, can we buy it for me after I open my mouth like before?"
Guan Yue put on his sunglasses and said seriously: "No, because I am the president."
Tianhe laughed, that sentence was what Tianhe used to tease him in the past, the subject of PPE is to train political leaders, so Tianhe liked to call him "President" when he was a child.
"To put it another way, I'm tired of hearing it."
"I'm a husky, I don't obey orders."
"Take off your sunglasses," Tianhe said, "Are you so embarrassed?"
Guan Yue said with a serious face: "This is convenient for me to look at you blatantly without being noticed by you, and it can effectively cover up my rudeness."
Tianhe said: "Let's go!" Then he pulled Guan Yue away, and raised his hand to take off Guan Yue's sunglasses. Guan Yue blocked it a few times, and finally gave up resisting. The sunglasses were confiscated by Tianhe. He put his arms around Tianhe's waist, turned his head and kissed him on the street filled with the afterglow of the setting sun.
Guan Yue: "Little friend, don't be naughty."
Tianhe was helpless, held hands with Guan Yue, interlocked their fingers, and walked past an ice cream shop, Tianhe stopped and looked at Guan Yue, meaning why don't you buy it now
Guan Yue: "You can't eat iced food on an empty stomach before dinner. And you have ice cream in one hand and a spoon in the other, so you don't want to hold me."
Tianhe had no choice but to give up, he always felt that Guan Yue was really a dedicated guardian, stricter than Wen Tianyue.
Tian He stopped in front of a handsome street performer, and Guan Yue carefully protected him from being squeezed. Tian He was listening to the violin music, looking sideways at Guan Yue, but suddenly his Feeling a little bad on the expression.
"What do you want to do?" Tianhe asked warily in Chinese.
Guan Yue: "How do you know?"
Tianhe: "..."
Guan Yue: "I just want to politely invite him to come and play the violin for you at home next week."
Tianhe: "No need, it won't sound good at home. Get some cash, hurry up."
Tianhe touched his body, but there was no cash, Guan Yue spread his hands, the two of them had nothing to do.
"I wish you happiness!" the entertainer turned to the sky and said with a smile, "beautiful little prince, God's favorite!"
Tianhe stepped forward to hug him, Guan Yue's face darkened in an instant, and he subconsciously drew his sword, intending to step forward and stab the entertainer with a foil sword, but unfortunately this is not a fencing arena.
After watching the opera, Tianhe and Guan Yue came out of the theater. Tianhe stood in front of the colorful fountain, took out a gold coin chocolate from Guan Yue's trouser pocket, and stood with his back facing the fountain outside the theater.
Guan Yue: "If you want to make a wish, you have to go to Rome."
"There is Rome in my heart, and there is Rome everywhere," Tianhe looked at his handsome lover in front of him, and said, "All roads lead to Rome."
Guan Yue: "Make a wish."
Tianhe said, "Will any wish come true?"
Guan Yue thought about it and said, "That's not necessarily true."
Beethoven's minuet was played outside the theater. In this music, Tianhe said softly: "I thought there would be a god in this world who would grant all my wishes."
Guan Yue looked into Tianhe's eyes, lowered his head slightly, and while breathing intertwined, he leaned into Tianhe's ear and said in a low voice, "There is only one wish that cannot be fulfilled, and that is to be separated from you."
Tian He put his arms around Guan Yue's neck, buried him in front of his shoulder, looked at him sideways with a smile, and Guan Yue kissed his lips.
"I want a birthday present." Tianhe said.
Guan Yue shook his finger and said, "No, God has already chosen for you."
Tianhe was a little frustrated: "Don't do this! You...God hasn't asked me what I want!"
Guan Yue said: "You can wish 'one more', you are God's favorite, I don't think he would mind giving you another one."
Tianhe thought for a while, twitched the golden button, and said, "I hope the president can put aside his studies for a while and take me to travel around the world."
Guan Yue thought for a while, then said suspiciously: "You just want to skip school."
Tianhe looked at Guan Yue, Guan Yue signaled Tianhe to toss a coin, and Tianhe knew that Guan Yue agreed, with a flick of his finger, the gold coin and chocolate flew over his head and flew towards the fountain. Guan Yue stretched out his hand quickly, swept over Tianhe's head, spread his hand, and actually intercepted the gold coin and chocolate in the air!
Tianhe: "..."
Guan Yue looked down at Tianhe, Tianhe was full of anger, the two looked at each other for a moment, Guan Yue couldn't help but kissed Tianhe's lips, threw gold coins and chocolates into the fountain, and led him away.
"Is it okay for the gold coin and chocolate to float and not fall?" Tianhe was dragged into the car by Guan Yue.
"It's fine to go home now." Guan Yue replied.
"What are you going home in such a hurry for?"
"What do you say?"
Tianhe entertained himself with a smile, shoveled out the tea leaves, boiled water and continued to make tea.
Pro: "Did you go later?"
"Of course," Tianhe said, "as a second birthday present."
Pro: "He's already prepared his first birthday present."
Tianhe: "Well, he gave me another island."
On his birthday that year, Guan Yue bought a small island in the Atlantic Ocean and gave it to Tianhe. He also designed the island emblem himself and named it "Midgard", which means the atrium of the World Tree in Norse mythology. From the second year, Tianhe and Guanyue would go to the island for vacation every summer vacation.
Guan Yue also bought a set of water flying equipment for Tianhe, took him out on a yacht, let him have fun on the sea, watched Tianhe spray water on the sea and flew around, and shouted happily everywhere.
"Actually, I don't have any desire for material things." Tianhe said, "What I want is just..."
Guan Yue: "What you want is something gorgeous but short-lived and beautiful, such as setting off a firework for you in Dubai."
"No!" Tianhe was angry.
Starting from home that day, Tianhe ignored Guan Yue until the port.
Guan Yue actually knew it all along, before getting out of the car, he casually said: "What you want is to be with me."
This sentence made Tianhe calm down, and said: "All I want is to be with you, and I can go anywhere."
Guan Yue said: "Then are you willing to die with me one day?"
Tianhe: "Okay, it's you, would you like to go to the ends of the earth with me?"
On the noisy pier, the magnificent luxury cruise ship "Dickens" appeared in front of Tianhe. After the butler sent the luggage up, he stood on the pier and bid farewell to the sky.
The whistle sounded, and Tianhe, dressed in sportswear, stood on the wide balcony outside the penthouse suite of the cruise ship, blowing the sea breeze. As the 240-day round-the-world journey set sail, Guan Yue also changed into sportswear and came to Tianhe's side.
"Just like now," Tianhe said, "I don't take anyone, just you and me, pack up my bags, go to Brazil, go to Argentina, go to Madagascar and the Cape of Good Hope."
Guan Yue said: "You just try to use me in every possible way, let me serve you."
"That's right." Tianhe gave Guan Yue an appreciative expression, but suddenly he was a little wary.
Tianhe looked at Guan Yue suspiciously: "You probably didn't buy this boat, did you?"
"I bought it." Guan Yue remained expressionless. He gestured to Tianhe to watch the guests on the deck, and said, "I have spent a lot of thought, and invited so many actors to come and act with me, and the salary is not cheap."
Tianhe laughed, knowing that Guan Yue would not do such a boring thing. Guan Yue picked up Tianhe Da Heng, carried him into the room, threw him on the bed, unzipped his tracksuit, revealing his beautiful chest and abs, embraced him, kissed him in the sea breeze, took off his clothes, and threw himself into the bed. Making love wantonly in the bright sunlight of the suite, looking at and touching every inch of each other's skin, and exploring each other's bodies.
