The whole thing about Gu Jia is like a shadow, following me closely every moment.

TV, newspapers, radio stations, it seems that his voice and figure are everywhere.Internationally renowned scholars, returnee professors, and academic leaders—these are all auras belonging to Gu Jia.From the professional field to the private life, various talk shows emerge in endlessly.It is not difficult to imagine that in the era of praising elites and good looks, idols like him are always the targets of various media.

Life is really ironic sometimes.

You struggle to get up here with great difficulty, but you find that all you have done is useless.Because the person who left you is always standing taller and brighter than you, no matter how hard you try, you can't compare to his little finger.

Liu Yichuan and a group of old friends called me one after another to inquire about my situation, as if they believed that we still had some contact.Liu Yichuan even liked to tell me some interviews and reports about him with embellishments.

"Chen Li, you don't know," Liu Yichuan clicked his tongue, "This guy is awesome now, and he dares to say anything, and doesn't take his father seriously."

"What's none of my business?" I responded coldly.

"Why is it none of your business?" Liu Yichuan said in a fuss, "Last time he publicly expressed his support for same-sex marriage in an interview, and said that foreign countries have already legislated and recognized it. Later, his father found out and sent a big message in the office. Get angry."

My heart moved, "Did he really say that?"

"Yeah, he's very courageous." Liu Yichuan sighed, "You said if he could do this before, would you have come to where you are today?"

I don't want to continue this topic, but my heart is in a mess.When I was sleeping at night, I felt a strong sense of suffocation again, and I woke up in the middle of the night, covered in cold sweat.

Lin Jinghui was very worried about my recent emotional ups and downs, until one day he finally couldn't help it, and he must have a good talk with me.I was very helpless, so I had to tell some lies to coax him, but I felt uncomfortable.He's been really nice to me and I don't like lying to him.

However, what a person fears most will happen sooner or later, and no matter how hard you try to avoid it, it is often of no avail.

This morning, when I was at work, Liu Yichuan called, with indescribable anxiety in his voice.

"Chen Li, have you read today's newspaper?"

"what's up?"

"Hurry up and buy a morning newspaper, there is a special report by Gu Jia."

I was a little displeased, "Yichuan, how many times have I told you. I'm not interested in his affairs, can you..."

"It's different this time." Liu Yichuan interrupted me eagerly, "Gu Jia is out!"

"What?" I was startled and stood up from my chair.

"He's playing for real this time! It's been said in the newspapers, let me read a few words to you...'S University's famous overseas returnee scholar, Professor Gu Jia recently confessed to this reporter that he is a homosexual, and called on All walks of life pay attention to sexual minorities and promote the legalization of same-sex marriage in China...'”

……

I couldn't hear what Liu Yichuan was chanting afterwards, and my mind was buzzing.

"Chen Li, let me tell you. One day I will let everyone accept us..."

"Chen Li, I won't be separated from you. It doesn't matter what my dad does, you trust me..."

……

"Chen Li, Chen Li!" Liu Yichuan's cry brought me back to reality, "Are you listening to me?"

"Huh?" I was in a trance. "What did you say?"

"I said, Gu Jia also mentioned you!" Liu Yichuan was almost dying of anxiety at the other end.

"What?" I didn't understand, what did Gu Jia mention about me?

"Hey, hurry up and buy a newspaper and read it yourself... Gu Jia talked about some things in college before, saying that he had a boyfriend when he was studying, isn't that you?!."

I was shocked again, this time I was really scared.Hang up the phone, rush out of the office in a panic, and go downstairs to buy a newspaper.

What Liu Yichuan said is correct, the past between me and Gu Jia, every word and every word has been printed and exposed to the public.Although he omitted my name and didn't give a detailed account of our past, it was enough to make everyone who knew us think about it.

My hands are shaking.

How to do how to do?

Is he going to destroy me again?

I dialed the number from last time, but it has become an empty number.I squatted on the ground with my head in my arms, and passersby cast strange glances at me sideways.

The phone rang, it was Brother Grasshopper.

"Chen Li, didn't you tell me that the meeting will be held at 11 o'clock, where did you die?!"

It was like a club hit me on the head.

I took a deep breath and calmed down slowly, "Brother, I'll be right there. Give me 5 minutes!"

I rushed to the meeting room sweating profusely, everyone looked back at me, Brother Grasshopper frowned so much that he could hang a sausage, "If you are late again, the bonus will be deducted next time!"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry..." I greeted everyone awkwardly, and sat down in my seat.

After the meeting, Brother Grasshopper stopped me, "Where did you go in such a hurry just now? Did something happen at home?"

"No...it's a little personal matter of mine." I bowed my head.

"I see you've been out of your mind recently." Brother Grasshopper looked at me seriously, "What's the matter?"

"It's nothing." I said, like a file was being pulled back and forth in my heart.

"It's fine," Brother Grasshopper patted my shoulder, "Then I'll go first."

I looked at his back and suddenly called out "brother!"

He stopped and turned around in surprise, "What's wrong?"

I can't speak.

He came over, "Going to have a drink after get off work?"

I nodded.

"We'll talk about it later at night," he slapped me on the head, "now hurry up and go back to work."
