Gu Ci's voice was low and soft, "circling" people in this posture, and then lowered his head to speak in the ears of the people. With his smiling expression, he was almost full of lethality.
Yan Luqing clenched a corner of his clothes with his fingers, and was pressed against the cabinet, as if something like fireworks exploded in his ears, and the whole person was almost drowned in this ambiguous atmosphere.
She thought inexplicably, if the golden finger could be used on her, then her pink bubble would probably explode—even she herself didn't know what she was thinking, because one thought after another was too fast.
After about half a minute, Yan Luqing reluctantly recovered a trace of soberness from the chaos, and began to concentrate on Gu Ci's questioning.
What does Gu Ci mean
First of all, he must have heard the words he said at the time, so he mentioned the word "wife" so accurately.
But she made it clear that she didn't remember anything, why did he ask so abruptly
Does he know she hasn't forgotten
That's even more impossible.
Gu Ci didn't mention this matter during the day, so why suddenly think of it now and ask her
And, just ask if you ask.
Why block people here and ask? ?
"This question needs to be considered for so long," Gu Ci said again, with some realistic doubts in his words, "I don't seem to ask any questions, right?"
"... You mean my wife." Yan Luqing blinked, with a flash of inspiration, pretending to be stupid, "Wife, isn't this just a name?"
"It's a title," Gu Ci looked at her, "Then, who is calling whom?"
"..."
Yan Luqing got stuck.
Gu Ci answered himself, saying: "It's what the husband calls his wife, or boyfriends call his girlfriend."
"..."
It seems that he intentionally bit his husband, wife, boyfriend and girlfriend very clearly. After he finished speaking, Yan Luqing couldn't get rid of these four words floating back and forth in his mind.
"What you said is a definition, but words have many uses and many extended meanings." Yan Luqing reluctantly retrieved the logic and swallowed: "My wife may not have to use it like that..."
Gu Ci smiled, "Then what else can you use."
"Yes, there is actually such a trend now." Yan Luqing lowered his gaze and did not stare at him. This way, her thinking became clearer. She said, "As long as they are good-looking, they feel good. Whether you know it or not, whether it's a boy or a girl, you can't help but call "wife"."
"I don't know how many people I have called a'wife' on the Internet," Yan Luqing looked sincere, "do you understand? It's the feeling that everything is my wife."
Seeing that he was not speaking, Yan Luqing became more vigorous as he spoke, and pointed to Bian Mu who was lying on his stomach in the living room: "Even if someone wants to, they can be called the wolf wife."
Wolf:"?"
Gu Ci: "...?"
After getting along for a long time, Yan Luqing has been able to instinctively guess Gu Ci's emotions towards him at certain times.
For example, now, it must be speechless.
But he soon found a new loophole in her words.
"You said, you called a lot of people'wives' on the Internet," Gu Ci's expression looked like pure curiosity, "What about reality?"
Yan Luqing was taken aback.
In reality...
only one.
She was wondering whether to use a lie to pass this level, or she just didn't answer, suddenly a small black voice came in her ears.
He is here to ask Gu Ci to eat.
Coming from the direction of the kitchen, I could only see Gu Ci holding the cabinet there for some reason, but waited until Xiao Hei approached to see clearly... There was a Yan Luqing "circling" between Gu Ci's arms.
"Miss Yan... Are you back?" Xiao Hei didn't turn his head, but remembered his mission, and said in a silly manner: "It just happens to be a meal."
Yan Luqing never felt that Xiao Hei had such a high light.
Seeing Gu Ci let go of her hand naturally, she immediately turned around and walked towards the restaurant as if she fled. When she passed by Xiao Hei, Yan Luqing said with an aura:
"Xiao Hei, Daddy loves you."
In fact, this matter has not been said openly. Although Yan Luqing can comfort himself "as long as I maintain the fragmentation, I will not be embarrassed", but there will be a lump in his heart more or less.
After all, such an outrageous thing has been done.
But now Gu Ci asked, she felt that she was completely open now, and her mood was very relaxed compared to the daytime.
In the evening, when Yan Luqing was taking a bath, he hummed a little song happily because he let down the big rock in his heart, but the voice of Macabaka came from his ears.
"Gu Ci is leaving in three or four days!" Makkabaka said excitedly, "Is Maria happy about this too?"
"..."
It used this tone to say "Gu Ci is leaving in three or four days" so easily that Yan Luqing suddenly became a little bit unhappy.
"Why do you sound so happy?"
"?" Macabaka was stunned, "Maria, I can't see anything as soon as Gu Ci appears. I have to look at gibberish when Gu Ci appears in your mind. Now that he is gone, I must be happy! "
"Oh, too." Yan Luqing understood immediately, "How can a mobile phone like a shielding device."
It is certainly happy that the shielding instrument is gone.
"Where is Maria?" Its voice seemed a little puzzled. "Maria has experienced many large mood swings recently, all of which are related to Gu Ci, mixed with emotions like regrets... Are you unhappy when Gu Ci leaves? ?"
"..."
Now that Gu Ci is mentioned, Yan Luqing feels very complicated.
But no matter what her mood is in her heart, if Gu Ci leaves, it must not be happy.
Even if many social death moments were born when he was with him, even if Yan Luqing had never successfully read his heart even once... But apart from these, the rest of her and Gu Ci's memories were even more profound.
Thinking of this, Yan Luqing suddenly rejoiced: Fortunately, he is a shielding instrument, and he thinks nothing will be seen by the system.
Otherwise I'm embarrassed.
Yan Luqing smiled: "Oh, the main reason is that he is too safe."
"Sense of security?" Macabaca seemed to be a little unconvinced, "Maria, do you have a system, and I—"
"I do have, but aren't you also completely blocked by Gu Ci?"
"..."
"So even though I have you and cheats or something, I still feel..."
"He feels safer than these." Yan Luqing continued to make up the knife, "a lot."
"..."
Makkabaka was speechless and hurried off the assembly line.
The next day was Monday. When Yan Luqing had breakfast, she received a call from Yan's mother. She kept talking about what time did the banquet mentioned last time start. Yan Luqing thought for a long time before remembering that it was Macabaka a few days ago. Tell yourself the banquet you must go to.
After answering a few sentences, she hung up the phone and met the opposite Gu Ci's eyes.
She was wearing golden fingers all over, and she also felt that she had no bottom in her heart.
This is a must-visit place designated by the system. The place designated by the system last time was Dieye Mountain-if there is no Gu Yu, then she might have explained it there.
So even though the conversation between the two yesterday was considered unhappy, Yan Luqing hesitated for a while, and finally spoke: "Gu Ci, do you remember what I said to you before..."
"Remember." Gu Ci obviously heard it and said directly, "What time is the banquet?"
Unexpectedly, he was so simple, Yan Luqing was stunned for a few seconds, and then reported the time.
This is a banquet that starts at one o'clock in the afternoon. It doesn't delay the two people's morning class. As for the afternoon, there is no other way. Yan Luqing informed Xiao Mahua in advance to help her explain.
Unexpectedly, after she and Gu Ci arrived home at noon, they received another call from Yan's mother.
—Because something happened to the host named Lu, the banquet was cancelled.
Can this designation be cancelled
With Gu Ci by her side, Yan Luqing couldn't reach Makkabaka. She found a reason and went back to the room first. As soon as she entered the room, she couldn't wait to connect it: "Isn't this a banquet you said the system wants me to go to? "
Although Yan Luqing didn't know what to do after a broken banquet, she didn't even understand why this thing had such a big change.
"Yes, it is really displayed like this," Makkabaka's voice was also puzzled, "How could this be..."
"Forget it, it's okay," Yan Luqing said, "You go to check or consult your senior and senior sister first. I also don't understand the operation of your system. When I know the reason, tell me and step back."
Then she went downstairs and found Gu Ci to explain the matter.
After all, Bai tossed, Yan Luqing was also embarrassed: "Then let's eat at home."
Gu Ci glanced at her and nodded: "Okay."
The lunch was quite quiet.
Although Gu Ci usually doesn't talk much, the two of them will always say one or two back and forth—Princess Sun Country will always add some bamboo shoots to her meal.
Today there is no such extra meal.
Not even a bamboo leaf, let alone bamboo shoots.
Yan Luqing was not used to it at first cancellation.
Gu Ci ate less today and finished it before Yan Luqing. He only spoke when he stood up: "You go to school by yourself in the afternoon, don't wait for me."
Yan Luqing was stunned, raised his head, and carefully observed his face. The first reaction was: "What's wrong, are you uncomfortable?"
"No discomfort." On the surface, Gu Ci seemed to be a little more tired than when he was on the way back, and finally said, "I'm sleepy, I don't want to go."
Then he turned around and walked out of the dining room, looking in the direction of going back to the room.
Except for the slightly cold tone, the rest is indeed the appearance of not getting enough sleep, she believed Gu Ci's statement.
It was just by him that Yan Luqing's sleepiness surged up as if she had been infected. After eating, she went back to the room and lay on the bed. When she woke up, she had already had more than half of the first class in the afternoon.
Yan Luqing stretched out, and took out the mobile phone on the side, showing a few messages from Xiao Mahua, a few minutes ago.
[Xiao Mahua]: You said you were going to the banquet, but why didn't you tell me that you were going with your guy
[Small twist]: [Picture][Picture]
The picture is still the chat record of her screenshot, from the T group chat.
First half an hour ago—
[Learning to the end of the world: I found that human beings are not good if they are too outstanding]
[Liliyuan Shangcao: How to say? 】
[Learning to the end of the world: our professional class, Professor Wu Lao loves us to enter the laboratory, not the kind of formal, it is the laboratory for teaching]
[Learning to the end of the world: Then our group’s heart is good, the great beauty Gu Ci, who served as his queen’s assistant for the first two times, this afternoon Gu Ci didn’t come to class, and Mr. Wu didn’t have an assistant, so he suddenly found him awkward. Class hahahahaha]
Then eight minutes ago—
[Li Liyuan Shangcao: Just chatting with friends from the school next door, she said that this is a big class, hundreds of teachers suddenly called one by one, the most important thing is-Xiao Meili did not go to class. 】
[Learn to the end of the world:? Ahhhhhhhhhh, Damei and Xiaomei are not in class together? I vaguely remember talking in the group, these two people still live together]
[Study is endless: Grass, did you suddenly come here? Can this be broken? 】
[Learn to the end of the world: kdlkdl! kswlkswl! 】
…
Yan Luqing replied to Xiao Mahua casually, and sat up from the bed while exclaiming. She sighed that the existence of this group was so magical, which proved that Xueba also has love, Xueba also has love, and Xueba can also gossip and gossip.
When Yan Luqing went downstairs, there was no one in the living room.
She has slept for nearly three hours. Gu Ci is so sleepy that she hasn't woken up yet.
Then she sat down on the sofa, turned on the TV, and watched the series for an hour, but she was a little absent-minded when she watched it.
—Gu Ci still didn't move.
Yan Luqing also thought that he ate very little for lunch, and suddenly a lot of speculations arose, such as falling asleep and fainting, such as uncomfortable fever and becoming unconscious... She didn't struggle for too long, and immediately got up and walked to the door of Gu Ci's room.
She knocked on the door twice, then pushed it open slowly and gently—
Gu Ci didn't pull all the curtains in the room, and there was still room for sunlight to leak in. The little light in the cracks illuminates the room.
He was lying on his back, but he didn't seem to be asleep. He almost immediately noticed her coming in, and then propped up his upper body on the bed.
Before Yan Luqing could see his face clearly, he heard his voice first.
"Why didn't you go to school?"
It was not much different from Gu Ci's usual speech, a little dumb, as if he had just woke up.
Yan Luqing immediately let go of half of his heart, and joked, "There is a man at home who does not go to class and sleeps at home, so I will learn how to learn."
"Oh," Gu Ci's voice was stained with a smile again, "Rely on me?"
"Yeah." Yan Luqing finished speaking without embarrassment, and walked towards him with the door. She told the truth as she walked, "Actually, I slept a little longer. I woke up after most of the first class. It was meaningless. Go to toss again."
"How about you?" She walked to Gu Ci and stood on the edge of the bed. "I think you have slept too long, and I'm afraid of you..."
Halfway through the conversation, Yan Luqing saw his face clearly and stopped abruptly.
Gu Ci's face looked more than twice as bad as when he had lunch before.
He was originally white, but at this time his face and lips were completely pale as paper. It is no exaggeration. This sickly white lined his eyes even darker, and there were tiny beads of sweat hanging on his forehead.
This look seems to overlap with him in some memory.
Yan Luqing didn't have time to remember which time it was, she slowly opened her eyes: "Gu Ci...What's wrong with you? Are you sick?"
She looked confused and worried, and her ending rose up, and she trembled unconsciously.
Gu Ci is reluctant to see her like this.
He was never the kind of person who showed people how much blood he shed when he was injured.
But facing Yan Luqing now, it was like facing a piece of wood that he was fond of, but it seemed to be solid.
Xiao Mui came with long legs on his own, and had to do something.
Gu Ci didn't answer her directly, instead he answered something that seemed irrelevant: "Do me a favor."
Yan Luqing was taken aback: "What?"
"Help me get a bottle of wine."
Yan Luqing subconsciously turned around to get it out, and after walking two steps, he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
—I have participated in so many occasions with him, when did Gu Ci have a drink
Not to mention the initiative to drink.
Yan Luqing pursed her lips, "... Why did you suddenly drink alcohol?"
Gu Ci was silent for three seconds, and suddenly said, "The first day I came, I told you, I think I was given a drug, do you remember?"
Yan Luqing remembered.
She also found the scene in her mind where the original owner ordered Da Hei to give him medicine.
She hesitated and said: "You are like this now, and your face was inexplicably bad before, all because of..."
Gu Ci looked at her and answered bluntly, "Yes."
Yan Luqing suddenly felt anxious, "What is it..."
"In simple terms, its effect can basically be summarized as hallucinations. Hallucinations are pain." Gu Ci said, "It's quite realistic pain."
"… Where does it hurt?"
"It's like—" Gu Ci stretched out his hand, palm facing up. The upper part is clean, with shallow lines. He walked down the fingertip with the other finger, "What I feel now is like starting from this, a knife will cut and cut your fingers from every finger to every inch, and it’s like Someone is cutting yours with scissors..."
He didn't go any further.
Because one inadvertently raised his eyes and touched Yan Luqing's eyes. She was shocked and distressed. It was all written on her face, and there was a layer of bright things over her eyes, staring round and round, like a bullied little animal.
Gu Ci was suddenly amused by her expression, it was obvious that he was being bullied.
Yan Luqing was silent for a long time, sat silently on the edge of his bed, and asked in a low voice, "How painful?"
Gu Ci thought for a while and told the truth: "In the beginning, there will be a few moments, it is not clear whether the pain is an illusion, or the undamaged skin seen by the eye is an illusion."
"..."
Yan Luqing suddenly thought that the two were in the tree hole at the time. She was surprised to find that Gu Ci seemed to be unable to feel the pain. He seemed to have said a word casually.
The pain is gradually tolerated.
The heart suddenly became very stuffy, and every beat came a tingle of pain.
Yan Luqing asked again: "Why did you ask me to get wine just now?"
"To dilute the senses, but also to divert attention." Gu Ci smiled at her, "The wine is faster."
There were red blood streaks in Gu Ci's eyes, and sweat slipped down his forehead—all of which was like a spontaneous body stress response due to pain, but his expression was not affected at all. His smile and the crooked corners of the eyes were normal. Generally no different.
It's as if he and his body can be treated separately.
"Is there no other way?" Yan Luqing couldn't remember for a while, and was a little anxious, "You must have it, don't drink, you didn't eat much at noon, but your stomach is much more delicate than mine, and I drank it. Isn’t it another place that hurts..."
Yan Luqing wanted to say something, but Gu Ci suddenly interrupted her.
"You don't need to drink it."
Yan Luqing was taken aback for a moment, his wrist was suddenly held, and he pulled it in his direction, and then the whole person was hugged—
She felt that Gu Ci’s hands were imaginary around her waist, her face was on her shoulders, and the warm breath during her speech was spread around her neck, and she said softly, almost like coquettishly: "But you have to give me a hug. For a while."
He had obviously acted, but he still wanted to ask.
"All right? Patriarch."
