Chef God who doesn't want to be an actor is not a good idol

On the morning of New Year's Eve, when Du Ruo opened his eyes in bewilderment, lifted the quilt and sat on the side of the bed, he couldn't adapt to the slight difference in the height of the bed, and the soles of his feet directly touched the cold floor. The fog of chaos in Du Ruo's brain was instantly cleared away, and the whole person suddenly woke up.

The unfamiliar furnishings around him silently reminded him that this was the old Xie family house.

No, it's still considered...

His grandparents' house.

Although Du Ruo returned to Xie's house after Xie's old house was opened that day, but because of his busy schedule years ago, he hardly had time to go to Xie's house or Xie's old house, and naturally he didn't have much chance to spend time with his loved ones. Connect with feelings.It was not until late last night that he finished the last filming trip of the year before and drove back to Xie's old house.

When Du Ruo walked down the stairs, Xie Mengting was already sitting by the dining table, reading a newspaper.Hearing footsteps, Xie Mengting raised his head, just in time to collide with Du Ruo's gaze.

Du Ruo paused, before he could think of how to speak, Xie Mengting nodded slightly: "Good morning."

"Good morning..." The name lingered on Du Ruo's tongue, but he still failed to say it.

Seeing that Xie Mengting didn't say anything else, he just turned around, Du Ruo couldn't tell whether it was disappointment or joy, and heaved a sigh of relief.

"Hurry up, eat while it's hot." Mrs. Xie put the freshly made plum porridge on the table and beckoned Du Ruo to sit down.

"Hey, eat more, you've lost weight..."

When eating breakfast, Mrs. Xie looked at Du Ruo distressedly, served him several times, and didn't stop until Du Ruo signaled that she really couldn't eat anymore.

After breakfast, Du Ruo didn't relax.

On weekdays, there might still be some servants in the Xie family's old house, but during the few days of Chinese New Year, they were also allowed to go home on vacation, and there was only one family left in the Xie's old house.

Because of this, they have to do it themselves for hanging red lanterns, pasting window grilles, and pasting couplets these days.

Gu Wan and Mrs. Xie were cutting the window grilles in the living room. When Mr. Xie was in the study, Xie Mengting brought out the ladder and prepared to hang red lanterns.

"I'll do it." Just as Xie Mengting put down the ladder, Du Ruo saw the whiteness on his temples, and before his brain could react, he had already pressed the ladder in Xie Mengting's hand, looking at the anticipation in Xie Mengting's eyes, Du Ruo opened and closed his mouth, but he still couldn't say the title.

After hanging up the red lanterns with Xie Mengting, Du Ruo helped to paste the cut-out window grilles on the window, then rolled up his sleeves and walked into the kitchen.

Seeing Du Ruo, Gu Wan was taken aback for a moment, then a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

"I forgot, we have a chef at home."

Under the background sound of the Spring Festival Gala, five hands held five cups, and when they touched each other, they made a crisp sound.

"cheers!"

On the TV in the living room, the host of the Spring Festival Gala is smiling and announcing the countdown: "Ten—"

Du Ruo stood up from the sofa, walked out of the living room, came to the window, and answered the phone.

【three--】

"Duruo."

When Du Ruo heard the voice of the person on the other end of the phone, he said with a deep smile, "Look up."

【one--】

At the moment when the clock struck zero, a gorgeous firework exploded in front of Du Ruo's eyes.

That deep voice was full of laughter and endless tenderness, and it rang in Du Ruo's ears with numbness.

"Happy New Year."

Du Ruo pursed his lips, and a smile couldn't stop rippling from the corner of his mouth. Fireworks shone in the sky, and mottled light spots fell on his face, illuminating the delicate young face with an unreal beauty.

"Happy New Year."

His voice was transmitted to the other end of the phone along with the sound of fireworks exploding.

***

In the early morning of the next day, Du Ruo got up early and walked down the stairs.

After yesterday, the relationship between Du Ruo and other people is relatively relaxed now. Although there are more than 20 years of irreversible time, both parties are trying their best to make up for the distance brought by time.

"But Xiao Ruo has a good relationship with the second child of the Wen family. When I went back to pick up Xiao Ruo to go to the old house, the second child of the Wen family was also there." Xie Mengting looked at Du Ruo with a calm face not far away, and sighed in a low voice.

"Where is it?" Gu Wan heard this sentence, and immediately turned her head to look at Xie Mengting.

Xie Mengting didn't feel anything was wrong, "It's just downstairs at Xiao Ruo's house."

A strange feeling flashed across Gu Wan's mind, she just opened her mouth when the doorbell suddenly rang and interrupted her words.

Hearing the doorbell, before Xie Mengting and Gu Wan got up, Du Ruo had already walked to the door quickly.

When Du Ruo opened the door, he saw a tall and handsome man wearing a black coat standing at the door, holding a pile of presents in one hand.

The moment the two looked at each other, the corners of Du Ruo's mouth raised unconsciously, "You're here." While speaking, the cold wind came in from the door, making Du Ruo shrink back involuntarily.

Wen Qi seemed to inadvertently grab Du Ruo's wrist with his free hand, lead him a step inside, and let go of the door, blocking the cold outside.

And the small movements between them also fell into the eyes of Gu Wan who had been observing the movement here.

If it was just a guess just now, then Gu Wan is more than [-]% sure of her guess in her heart now, she narrowed her eyes slightly, suppressing the emotions emerging from her eyes, and when she raised her head again, there was already a usual smile on her face.

Wen Qi changed into his slippers, and walked into the living room with Du Ruo side by side.

"I came here suddenly, so I take the liberty to interrupt you," Wen Qi smiled decently at Xie Mengting and Gu Wan who were sitting on the sofa, but probably only Du Ruo, who was standing beside Wen Qi, noticed that his arms were tensely tense .

Although Xie Mengting was surprised by Wen Qi's sudden visit, but thinking of Du Ruo's friendship with Wen Qi, he was only surprised for a moment, then hid this emotion in his eyes, and said with a smile: "What's bothering you. You and Xiao Ruo are on good terms Friends, that's my junior, so don't be so polite."

This "junior" is not out of the ordinary, even though the business of Xie's family and Wen's family is out of reach, they have seen it several times at various dinner parties.In terms of relationship, the term "junior" is appropriate.

Gu Wan beckoned Wen Qi to sit down, and Wen Qi took advantage of the opportunity to put the gift she brought on the coffee table.

"Xiao Ruo, I'm going to make tea, you come with me to help."

Gu Wan found an excuse to call Du Ruo away, the small kitchen was some distance away from the living room, Xie Mengting and Wen Qi who were chatting in the living room could not hear the sound from the kitchen.

Du Ruo followed Gu Wan into the small kitchen with some doubts. Gu Wan set the tea set, her hands kept moving, but her mouth was cautiously probing: "Xiao Ruo, you...have a good relationship with Wen Qi?"

Du Ruo's subordinates paused for a moment before giving a soft "hmm".

"How good is it?"

After this question was asked, Du Ruo paused for much longer than the previous question, until the hot water poured into the cup and the water mist rose, Du Ruo said in a volume so soft that only the two people in the kitchen could hear: " The extent to which I want to walk down the road with him."

The moment after he finished speaking, Du Ruo raised his head again as if he had never said anything, looked at Gu Wan who was stunned by his words and smiled, "I'll take out the tea."

When Du Ruo returned to the living room with tea, Gu Wan also sat down on the sofa again, she was still thinking about Du Ruo's answer in the kitchen just now.

Thinking back to what Xie Mengting mentioned, and the scene at the door she saw, Du Ruo's answer will not have any other direction.

"You don't need to bring these things when you come back next time, just someone can come." Gu Wan said softly.

Falling into Xie Mengting's ears, the emphasis of this sentence was on "don't bring it with you", but after hearing this sentence, Wen Qi, who met Gu Wan's eyes, understood the other three words - come back.

"It's good that uncle and aunt like it." Because the air conditioner is on in the room, Wen Qi has already taken off his coat, wearing a dark gray sweater on his upper body, and sitting on the sofa.Hearing these words, the corners of his mouth couldn't stop curling up in a small arc.

"It's good if you have the heart, you don't need to spend money." Gu Wan looked at Du Ruo gently touching Wen Qi with her knee, and looked sideways at Wen Qi with a smile in her eyes, and couldn't help but sighed softly in her heart.

Although there are not many intersections, they have heard about the situation of the juniors of each family more or less.Wen Qi, the second youngest of the Wen family, had done the outrageous thing of "entering the entertainment circle" since he was a child. During that time, the Wen family had a little trouble, but there was no other gossip.In their circles, no news is often the best news.

Although Gu Wan still didn't want to understand how they saw each other, after observing the familiar and intimate little movements and eyes between them, Gu Wan was more reluctant to see her son who had just come home because of this matter than to be entangled. Things were in a dilemma, so he let go softly.

Seeing the smile jumping in Du Ruo's eyes after hearing her let go, Gu Wan pursed the corners of her lips and raised them slightly.

After saying goodbye to Wen Qi, on the way back from the gate through the garden, Gu Wan deliberately slowed down, a few feet behind Xie Mengting, and stood shoulder to shoulder with Du Ruo.

She stared straight ahead, and her voice fell softly but clearly into Du Ruo's ears: "Xiao Ruo, if I bless you all, will you be happy?"

Du Ruo turned her head slightly, pursed her lips, "If that's the case, I'll be very happy."

"Then I wish you all the best." Gu Wan turned her head, looking at the flash of surprise in Du Ruo's eyes, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but rise.

Du Ruo and Wen Qi are both on the cusp of the entertainment industry. If news of the two of them being together breaks out, not to mention the pressure of public opinion, what Gu Wan is more worried about is that under the sudden pressure from the outside world, the two Whether you can still keep going without ending up sad and sad.

In the short time just now, Gu Wan thought a lot, a lot.

But none of these can compare to what she sees now, the light flickering in Du Ruo's eyes, like tiny stars.

The world is big and complex.

And my child, I want you to be happy and safe.
