We Meet Again Today

Chapter 86: Miss you (1)

Views:

Luo Lian had no urge to cry. After all, Bai Langyue had been dead for a long time, and he would not cry in front of the grave. Because Bai Langyue certainly didn't want to see Luo Lian cry.

"Let's talk about what happened after returning to China." Luo Lian changed the topic and spoke in a lighter tone, "I met the girl I like. I also tried to pursue her, but... there shouldn't be any results for a while. It may take a long, long time before I can bring her to see you."

"Her name is Gu Ziyi, she is a very good girl. I like her very much and want to marry her."

Luo Lian laughed softly: "I don't know how long it will take before I get married."

"Also... I don't know if I am so lucky to marry the girl I like."

Luo Lian had a lot to say in his heart, but he couldn't actually say anything. There is no logic, just say whatever comes to mind.

"I wonder if you would dislike me for being such a talkative person. I'm living a good life now. I'm working in Mingsheng, and my position is not low. The Luo family... I don't think you'd like to hear it, so don't say it."

Luo Lian stayed in the cemetery for a long time.

It wasn't too early when he came, and it was already dark when he left.

By the time he drove back, it was completely dark.

Luo Lian hadn't eaten lunch, and it was already past dinner time. He went into a shop on the roadside, ordered food, and then returned to the hotel with takeout.

Luo Lian took a shower and changed his clothes. After all, he was covered in dust. After cleaning up, he returned to the living room to eat.

He picked up his phone and hadn't sent a message to Gu Ziyi for two days. It's probably impossible to wait for Gu Ziyi to take the initiative to contact him.

Luo Lian didn't send a message this time, but instead made a voice call.

There's no particular reason, I just want to hear her voice right now.

After ringing several times, Luo Lian's heart gradually sank. Because he felt... Gu Ziyi probably wouldn't answer. Just when Luo Lian was about to hang up the call, Gu Ziyi answered the call.

"Hello?" Gu Ziyi's voice came from the phone, right next to his ear.

Gu Ziyi asked: "Is something wrong?"

Luo Lian opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything.

Gu Ziyi waited for a while but didn't hear the sound, then said: "Hello? Luo Lian?"

Luo Lian's throat moved, "Well, it's me."

There was silence.

It was Gu Ziyi who spoke: "Is something wrong?"

"...Actually, it's nothing." Luo Lian's eyes darkened, "I just... want to hear your voice."

Gu Ziyi was silent again, and then asked: "What's wrong with you?"

Luo Lian didn't want to make it so obvious that something was wrong with him. But obviously he didn't cover it up well. "nothing."

Gu Ziyi chuckled lightly, "You are making a voice call at this time just to tell me 'nothing'?" Isn't Luo Lian a little funny

Luo Lian also raised the corners of her lips, although she couldn't see Gu Ziyi's appearance. But he could imagine that Gu Ziyi was probably crossing her arms at the moment, with disdain in her eyes and a smile on her lips. "I haven't seen you for a long time. Can I ask you out for a meal or something?"

Gu Ziyi did not reply immediately, and was silent for a moment before saying, "I'm afraid it's not possible, I'm on a business trip."

Luo Lian almost forgot about this. Gu Ziyi was on a business trip and was not in Beijing. He raised his hands, raised his eyes, and smiled, "Then when will you come back?"

"...What do you want to express by making this voice call?" Gu Ziyi asked.

Luo Lian pondered for a moment, "Actually, it's nothing. It's just..." He paused, and then said, "I miss you."

There was another long silence.

Luo Lian thought that after being silent, Gu Ziyi would use the same rhetoric to reject him again. Should he take the initiative to intercept Gu Ziyi's words first

Luo Lian was about to speak when he heard Gu Ziyi's words.

"Luo Lian, are you okay?"

She didn't say those words as Luo Lian expected. Instead, ask him “Are you okay?”

The smile on Luo Lian's face gradually faded, and fatigue crept into the corners of his eyes and brows. He couldn't say anything, just kept silent.

Gu Ziyi said: "You don't seem to be in a good condition. Did something happen to you?"

Gu Ziyi's intuition is very keen.

Luo Lian tried to smile and twitched her lips, but...it was very weak. "Do I sound bad?"

"Um."

"It's nothing, just... a little tired." Luo Lian raised his head and leaned on the sofa. He stared at the lamp, his eyes blank.

"About work?" Gu Ziyi asked.

"Not really."

"Do you want to say it?"

"I don't think so."

Gu Ziyi: "Then why are you calling me?"

"I want to hear your voice. I feel relieved when I hear your voice." Luo Lian didn't lie, nor did he say anything sweet. Because this was the case, he felt much better when he heard Gu Ziyi's voice.

"...Don't you have any friends? Are you calling your ex-girlfriend to find comfort? Is there something wrong with your mind?" Gu Ziyi started to criticize others.

Luo Lian laughed: "All my friends have girlfriends, but I don't. Besides, you are not my ex-girlfriend, you are my future girlfriend."

Gu Ziyi: "... You seem to be a psychopath."

"Gu Ziyi, do you hate me?" Luo Lian asked.

Gu Ziyi chose to remain silent.

Luo Lian asked: "Wouldn't it be better to tell the truth?"

Gu Ziyi said: "I don't hate it, but I can't say I like it very much."

It's an expected answer.

"Let me ask you another question. Are you targeting just me, or are you targeting all members of the opposite sex without giving them a chance?"

Gu Ziyi thought for a while, "The current situation is for everyone. Because I have no plans to fall in love, and I don't particularly want to get married. I haven't figured out what I want yet."

Luo Lian knew that Gu Ziyi was telling the truth.

"Then I still have a chance, right?"

Gu Ziyi: "...can't you give up?"

Luo Lian chuckled: "You can do other things. You can't." His tone was particularly solemn.

For a moment, Gu Ziyi didn't know how to answer. Because she knew that she could not change Luo Lian's mind. Luo Lian was very stubborn, especially stubborn.

"You will put a burden on me." Gu Ziyi said.

Luo Lian pursed her lips, "I..."

He wanted to say, can I please please like me like before.

But this sentence was not suitable for him to say. He was not qualified, so why should Gu Ziyi help him

Luo Lian took a deep breath and said, "Sorry to bother you. I'll contact you when you come back from your business trip."

After saying this, Luo Lian hung up the phone.

This was also the first time that he took the initiative to hang up the call with Gu Ziyi.

Because he wants to escape.

Luo Lian stared at the lamp in a daze and sighed, "What a burden..."

He became Gu Ziyi's burden.
