The next day, Qi Xi woke up from a hangover with a splitting headache. He checked the time and found that it was already ten o'clock in the morning. However, when he got up, he was not in the house he and Zhao Yiran rented. but in...
It was in sister Gu Yan's guest room!
Qi Xi didn't have time to think about anything else, and almost scrambled out of bed.
Her memories of last night were a bit fragmented, and the first reaction in her heart was uneasiness and nervousness. She was so outrageous last night, it can't be true...
Qi Xi's memories of last night were very vague. She remembered that Gu Yan had come, but she couldn't tell the truth from the fake. She only remembered the grievances in her heart, and she also remembered her accusation against Gu Yan, but in the future More, she couldn't tell whether it was reality or a dream, because after the hangover, she had a whole night of grotesque dreams - some dragged Gu Yan and Zhao Yiran to dance, and she ran outside to dig the ground to grow vegetables Yes, there are also those who borrowed Gu Yan's money to lend usury. The most outrageous thing is that she also dreamed that she went to Gu Yan's wedding, followed by Gu Yan's child's full moon wine. Gu Yan still thinks that she gave too little money for a hundred yuan! This man doesn't let himself feel comfortable in his dreams!
Now that I'm waking up in Gu Xuehan's house, I wouldn't be making trouble all the way to Gu Yan's door... Then it can be inferred that Gu Yan's visit to the bar yesterday was probably true...
but other...
The other things should not be true, after all, Qi Xi feels that he is still an excellent representative of stability and restraint in the local area, and he can still give Gu Yansui 800 yuan regardless of previous suspicions, which is too outrageous. If Gu Yan and others Married, Qi Xi is very sure, she will definitely not give a single point! It is impossible to attend his wedding at all!
Thinking of this, Qi Xi comforted himself, so those other shameful things should definitely be Qi Xi's dreaming.
But when she thought it was a dream, Qi Xi felt a little tight in her chest again, she felt a little pitiful, she imagined that Gu Yan was so good in her dream, and the person who confessed to herself and expressed her liking was herself...
This is too miserable for me!
Because these mixed memories were too chaotic and strange, Qi Xi couldn't digest them for a while.
She was just about to wait until she was fully awake to sort out one by one, when she heard Gu Yan's familiar voice—
"Qi Xi, are you awake?"
The man seemed to be in the kitchen, when he heard the commotion in the guest room, he walked over.
Soon, Qi Xi saw Gu Yan's face at the door of the guest room—clean and sharp, with a sense of beauty at all times, although there was no special expression, but this face alone was quite eye-catching.
It's already working time, so it's fine if I oversleep after being hungover, how could Gu Yan be there
Or maybe he is still dreaming now, and he hasn't woken up yet.
Thinking of this, Qi Xi calmed down again. She glanced at Gu Yan, convinced that everything was a dream, and pursed her lips, ignoring Gu Yan in the dream.
Because she firmly believed that it was enough to fall asleep again, Qi Xi calmly lifted the quilt and lay down again, closing her eyes.
Then she felt that Gu Yan came to her bedside, then touched her forehead, and said as if talking to herself: "Why is your face so red? Is it because of a fever? It shouldn't be."
His hand felt a little cool, and then the feeling of touch disappeared quickly.
Gu Yan moved his hand away: "The temperature is quite normal."
The temperature is quite normal, but Qi Xi feels that his brain may not be normal.
Because from the absolutely real touch feeling of Gu Yan's hand, Qi Xi realized desperately that everything at this moment is probably not a dream, and he might have indeed made a fuss to Gu Yan in the bar last night. A very strange thing happened, that's why he woke up in Gu Yan's sister's house at this moment, and Gu Yan was probably harassed by himself who was drunk last night. Look after yourself in the house.
Thinking about it this way, things seem to get pretty suffocating.
So Qi Xi covered his face with the quilt, still tightly closed his eyes, hoping to isolate everything from the outside world, and also hoped that Gu Yan could leave quickly.
But no.
Not only did Gu Yan not leave, he even sat beside Qi Xi's bed: "Want to get up? I made you porridge and hangover tea."
Qi Xi couldn't pretend anymore, she lifted the quilt, and then put on the slippers as if flying: "I'm going to wash my face and brush my teeth!"
She almost ran into the bathroom as if fleeing.
Qi Xi did a huge amount of psychological construction in the bathroom. Although he had some impressions of last night's clips, it wasn't enough to remember all the details.
She decided to pretend to be calm first and wait and see what happened.
So after washing up, Qi Xi returned to her usual calm and breezy appearance. Seeing that there was nothing unusual about Gu Yan, she also greeted Gu Yan in the usual way of getting along, and sat down at the dining table pretending to be natural dine.
It's just that although Qi Xi wanted to transition this moment smoothly, another person in the room obviously disagreed.
"Qixi, didn't you say you only want me? Is that why you want me?"
When Gu Yan suddenly attacked Qi Xi with these words, Qi Xi was drinking milk cereal.
Gu Yan used a serious tone, without any major emotional fluctuations, and didn't even raise his eyelids to stare at Qi Xi, just staring at Qi Xi's bowl, as if he was talking about which case was filed where Where is the progress now.
But the more calm his tone was, as if he was talking about a very ordinary thing, the more frightening Qi Xi felt.
Almost instantly, Qi Xi couldn't control it well, the milk in his mouth sprayed out, and he couldn't help coughing.
The table was inevitably stained a little by the milk in Qi Xi's mouth. Although Qi Xi didn't understand furniture brands, Gu Xuehan's furniture in this suite was very tasteful, with a strong sense of design, and every detail was polished very delicately , it is not cheap at first glance.
Qi Xi looked at the solid wood table top stained by the milk he had sprayed, feeling a little embarrassed and guilty, but Gu Yan didn't seem to care about it.
He just took out the wet tissue naturally, then wiped Qi Xi's mouth like a very normal thing, then picked up her milk-stained hand, and carefully cleaned each finger wiped clean.
It's inevitable...
When Qi Xi was carefully wiped by Gu Yan, because he felt too ashamed, he didn't think about pulling his hand away, then Gu Yan just raised his head and gave Qi Xi a half-warning look, and then he whispered: "Be safe!" point."
Then he took Qi Xi's hand forcefully and continued to wipe her hands.
Gu Yan's movement of wiping his hands was actually very gentle and restrained, there was no small movement or any other ambiguous meaning, but just such a simple hand wiping, Qi Xi still felt that his whole body became very short of breath, she was a little uncomfortable Knowing what to do, it seemed that the hand held by Gu Yan no longer belonged to her.
Gu Yan would do this to himself...
So... Could it be...
So was everything true last night? ?
Thinking of this possibility, Qi Xi's entire face turned red, she felt that she was about to lose her breath, and her heart was beating too fast.
Last night she committed the crime simply because she was drunk, but today she is sober, but she doesn't know how to face it.
"Ah, I..." Qi Xi tried to divert his attention, "Why am I here?"
Gu Yan had already let go of Qi Xi's hand, and glanced at her at this moment: "Oh, you hugged me yesterday and didn't let go, and even said you wanted to hug me to sleep."
Qi Xi was about to faint, can Gu Yan stop saying such shameful things in such a serious tone as if he was negotiating!
"..." Qi Xi became eager to run away immediately, but Gu Yan stared at him, this is Gu Yan's sister's house again, she had no idea where she could run away to.
So he could only try to divert his attention again, and talk about less embarrassing and sensitive topics. Qi Xi brushed his hair, Gu Zuo said, "Why didn't you send me back to Zhao Yiran's side?"
"Because you said you wanted to go home with me." Gu Yan said calmly, "And I don't worry about you going home with Zhao Yiran, because if she was responsible, she wouldn't leave you drinking at the bar alone. She took it out, but ended up chatting with someone else halfway."
"If I didn't happen to see the selfie she posted in the circle of friends and saw you sitting behind her, I wouldn't even know she took you to the bar."
Gu Yan looked at Qi Xi with a serious tone: "If I didn't come, in case something happened to you last night, what do you plan to do with me in the future?"
Qi Xi looked up at Gu Yan, and muttered, "What should I do..."
Gu Yan pursed his lips, not letting Qi Xi change the subject, he stared at Qi Xi: "Even if you are recruiting boyfriends, you should pay attention to first come and first come first. I should at least be the one who got number one in the team. Could it be that someone else is inserting me?" team?"
This means...
Qi Xi blushed, and retorted in a low voice: "Why are you the number one? At least when you were in college, didn't you still like others? Didn't you still want to confess? It's just that I might be overwhelmed by my personality when I work together in the institute later." Only when the charm conquers me will you like me..."
As soon as Qi Xi talked about this, the logic became clear: "And you said you don't have a girlfriend, so what's going on with you and your female neighbor? Could it be that you went to open a room to play cards or study? What do you say? If you like me, maybe it's because you want to take the second best? For example, you can't catch up with your own Bai Yueguang, so you simply find a low-quality substitute. Could it be that you are looking for me after breaking up with her recently?"
Qi Xi didn't think it at first, but now that he said it this way, he felt more and more that it was true: "It's better to eat what's in the bowl and think about what's in the pot, and say that you haven't been flirting with me, and you haven't been with me. Ambiguous why are you blushing now, you must be guilty!"
Gu Yan seemed a little helpless, he called Qi Xi's name in a low voice.
It's a pity that Qi Xi doesn't plan to buy it: "Don't try to interrupt me to divert my attention, and say that you don't have a girlfriend, and you still have hot fights with your female neighbor all day long without a girlfriend, and even sent her home several times, why don't you Send me home? Just like this, you still have the nerve to say that you can queue up to get the number one number plate? I am very stingy and tasteless, and I don’t share my boyfriend’s interest with others.”
Gu Yan's face was a little red, but he looked a little helpless: "What are you thinking about, my neighbor and I have nothing."
He looked at Qi Xi, and said in a very serious tone, "I've always liked you only."
"It's not a long-term love for you at all." Gu Yan lowered his gaze, as if trying to cover his slightly flushed face, but it was useless, because the man's ears were a little red at the moment, his The voice was still serious, but Qi Xi could still hear a slight tension in it.
"The person I want to confess has always been you. There is no white moonlight at all, it has always been you."
Qi Xi couldn't react at all, she looked at Gu Yan a little blankly, and repeated: "It's me you've always liked? But don't you have someone you like?"
Gu Yan was a little helpless: "Fool, it has always been you, no one else."
Qi Xi was stunned for a long time in front of the huge shock, and finally found some clear logic. She tentatively asked in an unbelievable voice: "So... I was the one you wanted to confess to when you were in college?"
Gu Yan nodded, and then laughed at himself a little: "I just didn't expect to be rejected by you before I confessed, and it was still in front of all the graduates, and the way was quite drastic."
"..." Qi Xi didn't know what to say at all, she just felt that her heart was in chaos, as if she had broken into a maze with no clue.
She stared at Gu Yan, and then suddenly thought of a possibility: "So you wrote in your employment intention at the beginning that you wanted to enter a law firm, and it was because of me that you suddenly went to the United States? And you also applied for Columbia University?"
Gu Yan answered without any delay: "Yes."
Qi Xi covered his slightly flushed and hot face, and muttered a little: "But you didn't go afterwards... When you chose to work in the law firm again, you probably didn't know that I couldn't go to the United States either."
"I didn't have any other thoughts at the time, I just wanted to avoid you." Gu Yan looked at Qi Xi, "Because I never thought that I would have such a bad image in your eyes, and your first reaction when you saw such a confession letter was I write."
"Qixi, it took me a lot of effort to convince myself to give up on you, to give up going to the United States, to give up meaningless pursuits and crushes, and to come to work in my sister's law firm, but I didn't expect you to come too."
Gu Yan looked a little self-defeating: "I have worked very hard, you are the one who came to provoke me, you said you wished me a happy birthday, but you gave me such an idiot gift, obviously I don't like pink the most, but you said pink and me It is very suitable, and they cook for me, but they are full of coriander, which I hate, and invite me to eat durian, which I hate, and take me to listen to heavy metal rock that I am not interested in at all. I like sweets."
"I clearly know that you don't care about me at all and give me something like this, but I still dare not refuse you at all, and I don't have the courage to clarify. Because I like you so much that you have no self-esteem, even if you don't Care about me, give me things I don't like at all, but as long as it's from you, I want it too."
Gu Yan averted his eyes and looked elsewhere: "Compared to receiving something you don't like, compared to having to eat food you hate, you don't give me anything, and you don't cook anything for me, it seems more satisfying." I can't take it."
"I have lived so long, I have never felt that anything is too difficult to accomplish. I can easily get the first place, and I can handle any opportunity and job with ease, but only you, you are the biggest thing in my life. defeat."
Every time Gu Yan made a complaint, Qi Xi's mood went up and down like a roller coaster.
She never knew.
She never knew that Gu Yan had experienced such entanglement and repeated pushing and pulling of emotions in a place that she couldn't even see.
Gu Yan's tone was flat and gentle. Although Qi Xi was so hateful in his statement, he still used a very gentle tone to explain—
"Sometimes I think you are like a little devil, but you pack it into my favorite appearance, sweet like a dream. I want to end this crush many times, but every time I see you, even if you don't want to be with me Say something, don't do anything, don't even have to smile at me, your very existence makes my head go crazy, as if I could do anything for you."
After being confessed so bluntly by Gu Yan, Qi Xi only felt that his heartbeat was so fast that it was almost uncontrollable.
Gu Yan looked into Qi Xi's eyes: "I have to pretend not to care about you every day, but the more I do this, the more I care about you in my heart. You go on a blind date, you go to a sorority, you meet other boys , This is such a common and natural thing, but I seem to be unable to accept it, wishing that even the male ants around you will be wiped out, so that you only see me alone. Qixi, you can understand my feelings ?"
Gu Yan didn't seem to expect Qi Xi to respond, but Qi Xi also had something to say.
"I can understand." She heard her own voice say, "Because I am the same to you."
That kind of feeling when seeing the other person's head is hot, like an electric shock, that kind of urge to do anything for the other person, that kind of worrying about gains and losses because of the other person's jealousy.
all the same.
