[Comprehensive] Cannon fodder, do you want to counterattack?

Gu Qingcang entered the door, put the things in his hand into the kitchen and returned to the living room, Lin Xi made him a cup of black tea without saying a word, then went to the kitchen and started to clean up and cook.

He was very reluctant to do this, but there seemed to be a faint voice in his body begging: "Just this time, the last time..."

Lin Xi was terrified. Since waking up that day, it seemed that only at this moment did he truly realize that the person sitting in the living room at this moment was the person he loved deeply not long ago... But, the person who loved this person, Is it really him?The throbbing and pain that should have come from the soul seemed to reach him after thousands of miles.

One time is enough, and the bento is to give an explanation to the self who loves this person.

Gu Qingcang was sitting on the sofa. He thought that he might suffer the boy's sneer again, or be rejected altogether. The result now is undoubtedly the best. The boy is still as meek and obedient in front of him as ever. Let him in, obediently go to the kitchen to cook for him, everything is the same as it was a few months ago.

Through the glass door, Gu Qingcang looked at the busy figure with his back turned to him, feeling a little absent-minded. He had done the same thing many times. Among his many "lover", only this child liked to cook for him. At this time, he would look at his back through the door, imagining that it was the person in his heart who was busy in the kitchen for him, so his heart was warm and warm as if it had turned into a pool of hot springs, so that even the food in his mouth The meals are full of warm and down-to-earth feeling.

This time, during the five days in the United States and the ten days in Rome, he had a great time with Kong Wenzhi. Every day was full of novelty and excitement, and there were many interesting things waiting for him every day.However, when he calmed down alone, he felt something was missing in his heart—this kind of life might be happy, but it couldn't make him feel at ease. This kind of faint anxiety made the happiness a little fake.

Kong Wenzhi also cooked him food, but when he looked at the elegant and slender figure of Kong Wenzhi frying steak in the kitchen, the feeling in his heart had nothing to do with the word warmth.

It was at that time that he clearly realized that they were different. The gap between them was so great. This child was much slender and beautiful than that person, and his personality was even more different—maybe from From the very beginning, he never misidentified them.

The ribs have been chopped, water is boiling in the pot, and the faucet of the vegetable sink is running. Lin Xi is peeling peppers. His movements are very skilled, and the knife in his right hand is so fast that only a phantom remains.

The peppers were quickly peeled, and there was enough water in the vegetable washing pool. The peppers were thrown in and washed. When the peppers were taken out, the water in the pot just boiled, so the ribs were put into the pot to rinse the water.

Gu Qingcang's lips couldn't help evoking a faint smile: Maybe it's because he just left the society and is much younger than his colleagues around him. Usually, this child always speaks and does things with a bit of panic and uncertainty. Only when cooking can you appear confident and methodical.

After the ribs were soaked in water, they were stewed in a casserole, then Lin Xi washed the frying pan, poured oil after the water was dry, threw the peppercorns in, scooped them up and threw them away, then threw the washed peppers in, and fried them for a while Put potato shreds.

Gu Qingcang was a little dazed, he liked the scent of peppercorns very much, but he hated this kind of thing appearing in his bowl. In the past few decades, only this child discovered this, and he would take the trouble to put it in the pot every time. The prickly ash is picked up again, and when stewing things, it will be wrapped and cooked again.

Returning to the original scene after a few months, the things that were used to it seemed to be hit hard by something.Gu Qingcang suddenly felt that something was stirring in his heart. For the first time, he felt that he was so close to what he had been looking for.

Yes, yes.

His heart was beating wildly, and he looked away from the young man with a guilty conscience, and instead looked at the surrounding environment.

This house is much bigger than the bachelor apartment that Linxi lived in before, and every place is carefully furnished, light-colored fabric sofa, milky white wallpaper, simple and elegant background wall, ten thousand year bamboo in the corner, and A small pot-bellied fish tank, with a few small goldfish swimming in it... The living room is well lit, warm and comfortable.

The place feels peaceful and grounded, just like its owner.

When Lin Xi came out with the food, Gu Qingcang woke up suddenly. It turned out that the time passed so quickly. He hurriedly pinched the cigarette in his hand, and looked up at Lin Xi's face. He remembered that every time he saw him smoking, The child would always frown unhappily, and then immediately open the window to breathe, and sometimes he would say a few words to him.He didn't take his words seriously before, but now he didn't want to make him unhappy.

However, Lin Xi only glanced at him, as if he didn't notice that he was smoking, and calmly said: "Mr. Gu, please come and eat."

Turned around and went into the kitchen.

For some reason, Gu Qingcang felt a little lost, went to sit at the dining table and waited, and felt a little uncomfortable: Should I help with something?

However, it didn't move after all.

Lin Xi glanced at Gu Qingcang, who was unconsciously sitting in the main seat, without reminding him, but brought out all the food, sat down and started eating.

While eating, Gu Qingcang finally realized something was wrong. Maybe it was because he entered the door too easily, maybe it was because Lin Xi's cooking was too natural, maybe it was because this scene was too familiar, which made him feel like he was back in a few months. Before, he even forgot that everything was different.

The kid who likes to talk and joke at the dinner table the most, has kept silent all the time, and no longer muttered to him about what he learned in today's training class, what interesting news he saw on the Internet, who in the class learned how to dance so fast...

Gu Qingcang, who always liked to eat and sleep without talking, suddenly felt very uncomfortable. He wanted to say something, but he couldn't find a topic. Then he felt that even the food in his mouth had lost its freshness.

It wasn't until the young man skillfully placed the pickled fish maw on the plate in front of him that Gu Qingcang tasted it again, and asked, "What have you been up to recently? Have you received a new job? Don't want me to contact you?"

Lin Xi looked up at Gu Qingcang, didn't speak, and lowered his head to eat again.He had been in a "love relationship" with this person for five months, and this was the first time he asked about his current situation. It took a long time to realize that this person didn't take himself seriously, let alone take himself seriously.

At this moment, he just wants to finish this last meal peacefully, fulfilling his original wish.

Gu Qingcang's heart sank, Lin Xi's indifference made him finally think of what happened these days, the purpose of his visit, and the palpitation he felt when he saw the bloody photo just now, as if he suddenly came from a dream. woke up.

After eating in silence, Lin Xi cleared the table and sat down on the sofa, and said, "Mr. Gu is here today, do you want to say something to me?"

"I," Gu Qingcang said in a shy voice, "I still owe you an apology."

Lin Xi suddenly wanted to laugh, he came to apologize, our President was so domineering even when he came to apologize, first he asked someone to cook him a meal with confidence.

She smiled and said, "Mr. Gu can talk now."

After a moment of silence, Gu Qingcang said, "...I'm sorry."

Lin Xi nodded and said calmly, "It's okay."

sorry it's okay.

Then nothing.

Lin Xi became a little impatient. He had known Gu Qingcang for a few months, and this person was always straightforward in front of him, saying what he wanted to say, what he wanted to do, and when he didn't want to talk, he kept silent and let him go. He also shut up... But now mother-in-law and mother-in-law are not the same person.

Thinking about it now, the reason why he was so "frank" in front of him was because he didn't care about his feelings at all.

Just as he was about to open his mouth, Gu Qingcang suddenly said, "Xiaoxi, let's start over!"

As soon as the words came out of his mouth, Gu Qingcang was startled, but his heart suddenly jumped wildly. He raised his head and looked at Lin Xi fixedly, his eyes full of expectation: "It's not a nurturing, it's really together. We have a good time Fall in love, and you can go to the United States to get married in the future..."

Lin Xi suddenly wanted to laugh and feel sad. If he remembered correctly, this person had just taken a romantic ten-day trip to Rome with his sweetheart. Although the two did not say it clearly, Gu Qingcang had a crush on Kong Wenzhi. I also know about his secret love... Such a trip together should be sweeter and more exciting than a real couple, right?

In the end, on the second day after coming back, he actually "confessed" to him... Was it because his heart was reactivated by that person, and he didn't dare to be rude, so he came here to find comfort?

"Who does Mr. Gu want to date? Me, or Lin Xi?"

Gu Qingcang was taken aback.

Lin Xi said: "Mr. Gu originally came here for that photo. Mr. Gu didn't want to ask, did Lin Xi really commit suicide?"

Gu Qingcang felt a pain in his heart: "You..."

As soon as the words came out of her mouth, Lin Xi nodded and said: "Lin Xi committed suicide." It was suicide, not suicide.

"Xiaoxi, you..."

Lin Xi got up and opened the window, the cold wind blowing in made people's mind clear, he sat down on the arm of the sofa, blowing the cool wind, and said lightly: "Lin Xi committed suicide, and then... died."

Gu Qingcang's expression changed suddenly: "What did you say?"

Lin Xi said lightly: "Although Lin Xi is an orphan, in the past 18 years, he has never encountered a real bad person or suffered any real harm... until he met you, Mr. Gu. He never thought that the one he fell in love with wholeheartedly People, from the beginning to the end, they only regarded him as a plaything for entertainment. He did not expect that the people who had been with him in the past would suddenly become colder and crueler than strangers. When he closed his eyes, he could still see that person. Annoyed eyes, covered ears, still can hear that person's impatient voice...

So he died, cutting the pulse failed to make the body die, but despair killed him.So the one who opened his eyes was me, a Lin who was no longer vulnerable, no longer hurt..."

"Nonsense!" Gu Qingcang stood up suddenly, and interrupted him sharply: "You are talking nonsense!"

Lin Xi looked at him and said, "Am I talking nonsense, does Mr. Gu really not know? Or, Mr. Gu's understanding of Lin Xi is so weak that he can't even see such a big change?"

Gu Qingcang's face was as pale as paper, trembling all over: "I don't believe it... I don't believe it!"

Lin Xi said lightly: "Mr. Gu believes it or not has nothing to do with me, but please stop wasting time on me, Mr. Gu, because the person you owed has disappeared, and nothing you do can make up for it." Go to him. If Mr. Gu wants peace of mind, don't bother me, just burn more paper money."

The blood on Gu Qingcang's face faded completely, he only felt the biting cold wind around him, which made him shiver all over: dead?That child... died?The child who can cook for him, the one who can whisper to him, the one who always smiles with crooked eyebrows, is dead?

He suddenly looked up at Lin Xi, and met a pair of cold eyes.

Not him, really not him...

Gu Qingcang took a few steps back, opened the door in a panic and rushed out.

The place that made him feel as warm as spring just a moment ago suddenly seemed to have turned into a icy purgatory, making him desperate to escape.
