Because Christmas is approaching, the competition and cooperation firm has ushered in the first wave of off-season—most overseas clients and foreign-funded corporate clients have gone on Christmas vacation, and the New Year is approaching. A little casual.
Zhao Yiran finally finished their case in the court, so he had a free time.
When getting off work, Qi Xi received an excited call from Zhao Yiran: "Qi Xi, are you going to the movies tonight? In the latest fantasy film "Ride the Dragon", our judge, in order to reward us for working overtime, paid for the show out of his own pocket. You can bring your family members. I counted the list before, and now there are four or five colleagues who can’t come temporarily. The venue is very empty, will you come?”
Qi Xi glanced at Gu Yan, "Riding the Dragon" is said to be full of special effects, it is a recent hit, and the movie theaters are almost full to the point that it is hard to get a ticket. Qi Xi originally wanted to see this tonight, but he found out that The tickets for the movie theater's prime time period were all sold out, so he planned to go shopping with Gu Yan instead, but now that he received a call from Zhao Yiran, Qi Xi was ready to move.
She tugged on Gu Yan's sleeve: "Go ahead, okay? Let's go to see this at night, their criminal court is booked out."
Gu Yan looked a little helpless: "When did I say something bad to you?"
"Then it's such a happy decision!"
Qi Xi quickly replied to Zhao Yiran, and said that he would bring Gu Yan with him.
Probably because Gu Yan and Qi Xi were both classmates and colleagues, Zhao Yiran didn't think much about it and readily agreed.
Qi Xi and Gu Yan hurried to the cinema after having a hasty dinner. When they arrived, the film had already started showing the opening credits. Qi Xi didn't have time to find Zhao Yiran, so he could only find a seat with Gu Yan in the dark. Fortunately, It is true that because it is a private venue, there are not many people in the whole venue.
I have to say that "Chenglong" can get such a high reputation, it is true that the shooting quality is very high, it's just...
It's just that Qi Xi didn't care to watch the movie at all.
Because under the cover of darkness, Gu Yan's hand held Qi Xi's.
The darkness magnifies the sharpness of the senses. Gu Yan's skin still has the coldness of the outdoors, like a winding beautiful snake, with temptation, it slowly climbs up Qi Xi's skin, but Qi Xi doesn't feel afraid, she also I can no longer feel the sound effects in the projection hall, and I seem to have entered a vacuum zone with only myself and Gu Yan. Except for the pounding sound in my heart, and the tactile sensation brought by Gu Yan's hand, there is nothing else like it. I can't feel anything anymore.
In the dark, Gu Yan made a lot of small movements. He first touched the back of Qixi's hand, and then began to trace each of her fingers. Embedded into the crevices of Qi Xi's fingers, it became a final gesture of interlocking fingers.
With the dim light in the projection hall, Qi Xi looked at Gu Yan, obviously there were a lot of small movements in his hands, but Gu Yan's face was serious and calm, as if he was really watching the movie seriously and didn't care about sitting down at all. Qi Xi by his side.
Qi Xi, who was blushed, had ears, and bare hands and feet, looked like he was performing a one-man show.
This is very unfair.
The pictures in "Riding the Dragon" are so beautiful, and the fighting scenes are so exciting, but I just can't watch it because of Gu Yan's distraction. Is this appropriate
not suitable.
Qi Xi thought about it angrily, and felt that he couldn't see it by himself. You have to pull Gu Yan into the water together.
Not to be outdone, taking advantage of the cover of darkness, Qi Xi also started her small movements. She broke away from Gu Yan's hand a little, and then gently scratched Gu Yan's palm.
Sure enough, almost instantly, Gu Yan's hand was tense, he seemed to be caught off guard, and he froze for a moment, then Gu Yan's hand started to grab Qi Xi's hand, he lost the calm he pretended just now, Looking sideways at Qi Xi, she began to want to suppress Qi Xi's little tricks in the dark.
It's a pity that obedience is impossible to obey, Qi Xi not only didn't stop, but also started to touch Gu Yan's palm in a different way.
She wants to see how long Gu Yan can stay calm
Qi Xi was having a lot of fun, but Gu Yan finally pulled away his hand as if he couldn't bear it anymore. Qi Xi wanted to continue chasing, but Gu Yan's hand was pressed down, and his hand pressed Qi Xi's With messy hands, the expression on Gu Yan's face could not be seen clearly in the dimly lit auditorium, Qi Xi could only see his outline and the light and shadow in front of Qi Xi's eyes when he pressed down.
When "Chenglong" played to the climax of the fight, Gu Yan pressed Qi Xi and kissed him in the dimly lit auditorium.
Because of the kiss, his voice became a little muffled, but it seemed that while kissing Qi Xi, Gu Yan also wanted to accuse her of her excessive behavior just now, and then rationalize his aggressive behavior at the moment.
"I told you all, I don't have that good self-control."
Gu Yan pecked and kissed Qi Xi's lips, and after a while, he reluctantly let go of Qi Xi.
The people watching the movie were all staring at the ups and downs of the movie with relish, but Qi Xi felt that she had become out of place because of that kiss.
She bit her lip, as if the feeling of Gu Yan's touch was still there, she lowered her voice and said muffledly: "You are so proficient in doing this kind of thing, you won't even be embarrassed!"
Qi Xi complained that Gu Yan didn't expect to get a reply from Gu Yan, but her rapid heartbeat hadn't returned to normal yet, Gu Yan approached Qi Xi's ear again, and answered softly in a low, hoarse but very sexy voice her question.
"I've thought about doing this before."
He kissed Qi Xi's earlobe, as if he was a little shy: "It's like a dream."
Because in the auditorium, Gu Yan's voice was very low, his voice was still steady, but Qi Xi always felt that it was different from the past, Gu Yan's voice seemed to be overflowing with sweetness at the end And happiness, for no reason, let the listener also be infected with emotions, and become peaceful and happy, and Qi Xi, who is the receiver of this sweet emotion, feels that besides happiness, there are many heart-pounding feelings.
It turns out that love is like this.
It turns out that liking someone is like this.
On the one hand, Qi Xi felt happy and lucky, but on the other hand, he felt regretful. In the past, she never felt that she didn't fall in love during college, and there was nothing too regretful about dedicating all her time to study, but at this moment, she really regretted it—if she and Gu Yan were together in college, wouldn't it be...
Would it be possible to beat Gu Yan and become the number one!
Thinking of this, Qi Xi secretly took a look at Gu Yan, and began to analyze that if he was with Gu Yan in college, he used a beauty trick to pour Gu Yan with ecstasy soup, making Gu Yan indulge in gentleness, and in the end he couldn't make progress and could only pass the exam. Possibility of second place to come…
but…
But Gu Yan's masculinity, Qi Xi, feels that he is also a bit useful, so if he really wants to fall in love in college, it is also possible that Gu Yan and himself will both become scumbags in college...
Thinking about it this way, Qi Xi feels that it is more appropriate to study unintentional love in college.
It's just that once the seeds of distracted thoughts are sown, the wild vitality seems to be completely uncontrollable by reason. Qi Xi almost spent the second half of "Riding the Dragon" in the haunted house, and Gu Yan, who would peek at Qi Xi from time to time, must be It's not going anywhere.
And when the screening was over and the lights were turned on again in the cinema hall, Qi Xi and Gu Yan had returned to their human appearance. The two sat upright and did not look sideways at each other, like a pair of very plastic colleagues.
It was also at this time that Zhao Yiran, who was sitting in the front row, turned her head and saw Qi Xi and Gu Yan. She stood up, waved to them enthusiastically, and complained, "Why did you come so late? There are two seats reserved for you next to me, but you sat in the back, really, the audience is so empty, it would be a pity for you to sit in those leftover seats."
Zhao Yiran had just finished working overtime for nearly a month. After watching the movie, he left the movie theater very refreshed: "There is a super delicious barbecue supper near this movie theater. Let's go, I treat you, let's go eat together!"
**
The barbecue restaurant recommended by Zhao Yiran was really good. Ten minutes later, Qi Xi, Gu Yan, and Zhao Yiran were sitting in the shop. She was indeed a little hungry. While listening to Zhao Yiran's gossip about their court, she happily ate roast lamb Gu Yan sat on the side, drinking canned beer, listening quietly, and occasionally, taking advantage of Zhao still not paying attention, cast a knowing look at Qi Xi, quite an illusion of underground love.
Qi Xi felt light and light, and the night was gentle. They sat on the outdoor seats of the barbecue shop, under the stars, and the atmosphere was so good that it was like a dream.
For this reason, Qi Xi originally wanted to drink some beer, but as soon as he reached for it, Gu Yan took it away with his own length, and then he handed Qi Xi a glass of warm coconut milk.
Qi Xi could only glared at Gu Yan while Zhao Yiran was eating with his head down, but unfortunately it didn't help, Gu Yan just smiled, and started to drink beer by himself. It is so blatant that only the state officials are allowed to set fires, and the common people are not allowed to light lamps.
Zhao Yiran didn't perceive the subtleties between Qi Xi and Gu Yan at all, and he kept complaining about the parties involved in the strange cases he met before. Qi Xi originally listened to each other, and could echo a few words, but he didn't expect Zhao Still not knowing what was going on, the conversation suddenly changed and started talking about tonight's movie "Ride the Dragon".
"By the way, don't you think that in the second half of the filming, the actor's personality is a bit blurred, and when he goes to save the heroine, the logic of the actor's character is completely wrong!"
Zhao Yiran is obviously very interested in this movie, and the chat is clear and logical, and there is something left to say. Qi Xi could only cooperate with it, and both she and Gu Yan were a little embarrassed and wanted to quickly end this topic.
But the more he thought about what would not come, the more it would come, but Zhao Yiran became more active in chatting: "By the way, before the finale, the male protagonist suddenly fell into a cave, and after his keel was taken away, how did he come back to life again?" Huh?" Zhao Yiran was very concerned, "At that time, I suddenly had a stomachache, and I couldn't help it, so I had to go to the toilet, but I didn't see this part, what are you talking about?"
How did Qi Xi know what was said, let alone this passage, she didn't know what was said in any passage in "Chenglong". Gu Yan sat next to her, and she couldn't watch the movie well at all.
But how could Zhao Yiran know about this kind of thing!
With a strong desire to survive, Qi Xi said almost on the spot: "I just happened to go to the toilet!" She added guiltily, "So I didn't see it, and I don't know what this paragraph is about. Why don't you ask Gu Yan Bar!"
Gu Yan, I'm sorry, I can only make things worse!
Zhao Yiran muttered why he didn't see you in the bathroom, so he didn't think much about it, but looked at Gu Yan with longing eyes: "Gu Yan, what did you say in that paragraph?"
Qi Xi had no choice but to pretend to look at Gu Yan eagerly.
Gu Yan obviously didn't expect this direction, he was stunned for a while, the person who has never hesitated in the face of problems, but now he is a little stuttering, he looked at Qi Xi helplessly as if condemning, cleared his throat, He began to talk nonsense: "It just fell into the cave, the keel was taken away, and after a coincidence, the king returned. Basically, that's it."
Zhao still was dumbfounded: "No more?"
Gu Yan nodded and said calmly, "Well, it's gone."
"by chance?"
"kindness."
Zhao still didn't give up, and asked: "What kind of coincidence is that?"
Gu Yan took a sip of beer calmly: "I'm a little drunk, and suddenly I'm a little dizzy, and I can't remember."
"..."
Zhao Yiran was speechless all over his face, and began to complain that Gu Yan could not drink too much, but Qi Xi who was at the side almost laughed out loud, especially after seeing Gu Yan's clear but helpless eyes, this man stole When looking at Qi Xi, his eyes were very energetic, but once Zhao Yiran glanced over, Gu Yan started to stare at a street light not far away, like a competent drunk.
Zhao Yiran waved his fingers in front of Gu Yan's eyes twice, and finally came to a conclusion: "Drunk, Gu Yan is really drunk, it's too bad."
Because he thought that Gu Yan had drunk himself and lost his sanity, Zhao Yiran ignored him and began to chat with Qi Xi.
At the beginning, she also chatted with Qi Xi about the super-car rich second generation she met at the bar before, and told Qi Xi that the other party was nice, and that she was a little ashamed of prejudice against him because of his role as the rich second generation. Dai praised it, obviously there was a situation, but when Qi Xi wanted to gossip, Zhao Yiran was probably a little shy and refused to talk, so he changed the subject and said: "Don't talk about me, talk about you, last time it wasn't howling. Do you want to taste the taste of love and find a man to fall in love with? After I took you to the sorority, many male colleagues in our hospital are still chasing me and asking for your contact information. Who else is behind you? Want to look around again?"
Zhao still thought that Gu Yan was drunk and lost his mind, but Gu Yan didn't!
Almost as soon as Zhao Yiran brought up this topic, Gu Yan gave Qi Xi a cool look.
Qi Xi desperately winked at Zhao Yiran, and hinted frantically: "Hey, Gu Yan is still here, don't talk about such sensitive topics hahahaha, I'm sorry hahahahaha."
It's a pity that Zhao Yiran didn't get any hint of Qi Xi at all, she waved her hand boldly and said: "It's okay, Gu Yan drank too much, he can't even remember the plot of the movie just now, but he can still remember what we are talking about now Huh? Just pretend he doesn't exist."
After Zhao Yiran finished speaking, he assumed the posture of breaking the casserole and asking the end: "Qixi, do you have someone in your heart? So who do you have your eyes on?"
Qi Xi just wanted to try again to change the subject, but unfortunately Zhao still was determined to gossip, she asked curiously: "Is it Liu Zhen? Just our judge, he is a nice person, and there are girls chasing him in our courtyard. You asked me when I was free a few days ago, and I wanted to invite you to have dinner with me."
"If Liu Zhen doesn't want to call, and Wang Lian from the procuratorate last time..."
Following Zhao Yiran's words, Gu Yan gave him a cold look.
Qi Xi's desire to survive is very strong, she immediately said righteously: "I think about it, I still hope to find a lawyer! It's better that the lawyer and I have more common topics!"
"Lawyers are also good. We have several seniors who are all in the law firm. It's been many years. When I was in college, I invited me to dinner and asked me to help them send you love letters. You refused so many times. Now The sound of the waves is still the same, in order to get some information about you, every day you can give me a humble like in the circle of friends!"
Don't say it, don't say it!
Qi Xi almost wanted to kneel down and beg Zhao Yiran, is she going to send herself away!
On the side, Gu Yan seemed really unhappy, the cold gaze just now was gone, replaced by drinking.
Sure enough, when Zhao Yiran was called by several of her colleagues to eat the second supper, Qi Xi and Gu Yan were left, and Gu Yan was a little depressed. He clenched Qi Xi's tightly.
Gu Yan seemed to have something to say, but he didn't want to say it. He looked at Qi Xi several times, was silent for a while, and finally opened his mouth—
"Qixi, why did you choose me?"
Gu Yan's voice was a bit muffled: "In fact, there are indeed many men who are better than me out there. You are so young, you have such good conditions in all aspects, and there are so many people chasing you. Maybe you will meet better men than me in the future. , will you regret it then?"
Qi Xi originally thought that Gu Yan would be jealous or angry when he heard Zhao Yiran's irrelevant words, but he didn't expect that Gu Yan would not, instead he felt a little disappointed and hesitant.
Although Yong's voice was calm, Qi Xi could sense his emotions.
Gu Yan was afraid.
Gu Yan, who has always been able to do anything with ease, and can get the first place with almost no effort, Gu Yan, who has always been strong and elegant in Qi Xi's eyes, is actually afraid because of Qi Xi.
The night is already a bit cold at this moment, but Qi Xi feels that her heart has become very gentle.
"Gu Yan, I saw a sentence before, saying, 'Actually, choosing who to be with is like going to the beach to pick up shells. There are other seashells that are more beautiful, more beautiful and more special, but human life is so short and precious, the rest of the seashells on the beach farther away from me, no matter how beautiful and special, should be left to others'."
Qi Xi looked into Gu Yan's eyes: "Because I have already picked up my unique shell."
Qi Xi has always belonged to the type of person who can do whatever he can.
She felt that at this moment, there was no point in talking about anything else.
She just grabbed Gu Yan's hand, then pounced on her unique shell, and gave him a kiss under his stunned gaze—
"Gu Yan, all I need is you."
