the world in which he exists

After talking on the phone with Lin Jianfan, Gu Chaoming took out the homework in his schoolbag and did it at the desk for two or three hours, but the door still didn't open.

Lying on the bed, I didn't feel sleepy at all.The bed is familiar to me, the room is familiar to me, but I just can't sleep.

Tossing and turning on the bed for 10 minutes, the mathematical symbols, English words, and recited poems I just wrote were a hodgepodge in my mind.

Gu Chaoming touched his wrist, buried his head in the quilt and suddenly smiled.

Among the countless floating mathematical symbols, Chinese poems and English words, a figure slowly comes from a distance. There is light in the distance. In front of him, he was smiling at him.

Drowsy and hazy, but there was a dazzling light in front of his eyes.

At that time, Gu Chaoming didn't notice that Lin Jianfan had become the person who made him lose his smile in his sleep.

His smile adorns his dreams and brings light to his dreams.

Thinking of you in the dark night, the dream will be bright.

When I woke up, the alarm clock hadn't sounded yet, and the undrawn curtains leaked into the floor full of sunlight, staining everything with a layer of warm yellow.

Gu Chaoming rubbed his eyes, put his hands on the desk next to the bed, picked up the mobile phone on the table, and checked the time.

I have to go to the supermarket to be on duty today, it's still early, there's no sound outside, Gu Tao probably hasn't woken up yet.

Gu Chaoming folded the quilt, saw the scar on the door, and remembered that night, the memory was like a raging wave, and a beast in the forest rushed towards him.

He stopped in front of the door, touched the scar on the door with his fingers, cut his hand with the splintered sawdust, and touched the crooked door lock. Whether Gu Chaoming wanted to change the lock with a new one was just a thought, and he quickly denied it. .

The door panels are already rotten like this, so what's the use of changing the locks?

Gu Chaoming touched the lock handle in thought, he could escape, he escaped easily, taking advantage of Gu Tao's sleepy morning, but he just left this house, he didn't get rid of Gu Tao.

What he thought was the period of breaking up with Gu Tao, to Gu Tao it was just a child throwing a temper tantrum and running away from home.

There was a noise from Gu Tao's room next to him, Gu Tao got up, and Gu Chaoming let go immediately to calm himself down.

The door opened, and in the morning of late autumn, Gu Tao came out of the room wearing only a pair of shorts.Gu Chaoming glanced at him, originally wanted to go to the toilet to wash up, but Gu Tao was one step ahead of him.

Seeing Gu Tao running towards the toilet, Gu Chaoming changed his route and prepared to make breakfast first.

I opened the refrigerator to see what was in there for breakfast.At this time, the sound of farting came from the toilet, continuous ups and downs, Gu Tao didn't know if he had a bad stomach from eating yesterday, so he kept letting it go.

The open refrigerator was blowing cold air. As soon as Gu Chaoming opened the refrigerator, he saw the dessert that he put in the refrigerator yesterday. The dessert lay there quietly.

The pink packaging bag, looking at such a sweet thing, is surrounded by Gu Tao's undulating accompaniment.When the two are mixed together, Gu Chaoming's heart is complicated, and he can't tell what he feels, but the previous feeling has returned, which is the main theme of his life, and the days when he ran away from home were just episodes.

There is nothing in the refrigerator that can be used for breakfast, Gu Chaoming gave up the idea of ​​cooking, and just eat something on the way when he goes to work.

Gu Tao came out of the toilet and saw Gu Chaoming standing in the living room: "Why do you wake up so early? Are you going to work part-time today?"

Gu Chaoming didn't respond, and he wouldn't remember if he told Gu Tao, so it's better not to say it.

Gu Tao hates him the most when he asks Gu Chaoming for not answering, his anger gets to his lips, and he withdraws miraculously.

Gu Tao smiled and walked towards the room, still saying: "You are dumb again, don't go to those part-time jobs of yours, dad will support you in the future."

Gu Chaoming didn't know how a person who came to the school to ask him for money not long ago had the confidence to say that he was supported.

Gu Chaoming thought he was going back to his room to sleep, and wanted to go to the bathroom to wash up, but after a while, Gu Tao's door opened again, and Gu Tao came out, wearing some extra clothes, and still holding 100 yuan in his hand.

The money was definitely not for him, Gu Chaoming pretended to ignore it when he saw it, and went straight to the toilet, but Gu Tao stopped him.

Gu Tao called his name first, but Gu Chaoming didn't stop. Seeing his father's majesty being provoked, Gu Tao suddenly ordered: "Stop!"

With an order, Gu Chaoming had to stop and turn around.

Gu Tao walked up to Gu Chaoming, pulled Gu Chaoming's arm that he didn't want to stretch out, and stuffed 100 yuan into his palm.

"You take it for breakfast, don't worry about mine, I don't eat breakfast."

The 100 yuan was stuffed into his hand, but it was Gu Tao who grabbed Gu Chaoming's hand and let him hold it, so that the 100 yuan did not fall.

Holding the folded banknotes in his hands, Gu Chaoming froze in place in disbelief.

This was the first time he got money from Gu Tao, it wasn't that Gu Tao asked for money from him.

Such a thing of the end of the world actually happened?Is Gu Tao really rich?Where did he get the money in such a short time?With thousands of questions at once, Gu Chaoming couldn't help asking him: "Where did you get the money?"

Gu Chaoming's words fully satisfied Gu Tao's vanity, as if Gu Chaoming didn't ask him where he got the money, but praised him "You make a lot of money."

"Of course I have a way to get money, much faster than you, you children can only work part-time." Gu Tao's tone was full of disdain for part-time jobs.

This was the last sentence Gu Tao said before going back to his room to sleep, followed by the sound of Gu Tao closing the door.

Gu Chaoming looked at Gu Tao's back, and the 100 yuan in his hand was something he thought he could never get from Gu Tao in his life.Now that Gu Tao gave it to him so easily, Gu Chaoming was not moved as he imagined, what he was thinking about was why Gu Tao went crazy today?

Gu Chaoming used to hope that Gu Tao would treat him well, but now that Gu Tao treats him well, Gu Chaoming hopes that Gu Tao will still treat him like before, which will make him feel more at ease.

Gu Chaoming had mixed feelings in his heart, and he didn't know what it was like.

After returning to the room, Gu Tao lay on the bed and swiped his phone for a while, and fell asleep while swiping.The moisture in the autumn air was used as a quilt, and Gu Tao was awakened from the cold and opened his eyes to feel the chill. The moisture penetrated into the crevices of the bones, and the wind brought by every movement was cold.

Gu Tao sat up and saw that more than half of the quilt fell to the ground, no wonder it was cold.Gu Tao stretched his waist, picked up the mobile phone that fell on the quilt, and looked at the time, it was already noon.He was also hungry, the house was quiet, and there was no movement in the living room. Gu Tao yelled a few times to the living room: "Chaoming."

No one answered after shouting a few words, it seems that this kid has gone to work.Wearing slippers, Gu Tao took the clothes on the table and put them on, opened the door and walked into the living room, intending to go to the kitchen to drink water.

Yawning and dragging his slippers, he walked towards the kitchen, passed the sofa and took another step back.

On the side of the tea table that Gu Chaoming tidied up yesterday was a roll of tissue paper, and a folded red paper beside the tissue paper.

After seeing off the last customer, Gu Chaoming followed the old lady out of the store, lingered at the store entrance, and swept the rows of autumn trees with fallen leaves at the store entrance, but still did not see the figure of the person.

I don't know if this is the first time this morning that I look away regretfully. Today's time seems to be more difficult than usual.

Gu Chaoming blamed the slowness of time on the weather.Today's weather is fine, bright yellow.In a typical autumn climate, the sun breaks through the clouds with golden fluff, the air is dry, and the breeze blows towards the cheeks.

Gu Chaoming took the dessert bag next to the cash register, opened the bag and took out the dessert box inside. His dessert was turned sideways, and the whole thing was stuck on the wall of the box.Although it is not terrible, but it is almost destroyed, and it is impossible to take action.

It's like this when someone bumps into you and accidentally falls to the ground when you enter the door.

Gu Chaoming picked up a piece of cream and put it into his mouth, it was very sweet and creamy, he didn't like it very much.Dessert is what he brought in the morning, the one in the fridge.

Gu Chaoming, who was walking on the way to work with a dessert bag, was quite happy, even though in the eyes of passers-by he looked like a silly boy in love who was going to deliver food to his girlfriend.

In the early morning of autumn, the golden sunlight covers the river, the bridge with people coming and going, the vehicles and pedestrians on the bridge, and everything.

Gu Chaoming walked onto the bridge and crossed the river covered with golden velvet light. He saw the fence, red bricks, buildings, and golden and gray overlapping shadows on the other side of the river, which was also illuminated by the sun.

In the overlapping shadows on the other side of the river, Gu Chaoming's hazy but already happy thoughts are hidden.

The cream in his mouth melted, and the sweet and greasy feeling remained in his mouth. Gu Chaoming took the first bite, and before he knew it, he ate most of the desserts that were forced to overturn in the box as extra meals.

The dessert was intended to be brought to Lin Jianfan. When I ate it yesterday, I thought Lin Jianfan would like this taste.Gu Chaoming observed that Lin Jianfan liked this kind of sweet, cream, yogurt and the like.I opened the refrigerator this morning, thinking that I didn't like it, so I just brought it to him.

Hastily finished eating the dessert that was no longer available, and threw the bag together with the carton into the trash can. Taking advantage of the time when he was not busy, Gu Chaoming stood behind the cashier and thought about giving Lin Jianfan the dessert. Belly, what should I use instead.

There is no reason and no obligation to give him this dessert, but once he thinks about giving it to him, it seems that he owes him if he doesn't do it.

Gu Chaoming's eyes searched the store, and without knowing it, he owed Lin Jianfan nine-tenths of the yogurt in one night, and a gift that he didn't know what to replace.

Sunlight streams in through glass walls adorned with shop name stickers.Because of the glass wall, the warmth of the sun is isolated, but the plush light still makes people feel very comfortable.

Gu Chaoming stood behind the cashier and looked out, seeing the happy crowd, the beautiful weather, and Lin Jianfan who was coming from nowhere.

Waiting, in the sunlight that breaks through.

While waiting, I suddenly remembered a passage in "The Little Prince" I had read before.

"For example, if you come at four o'clock, I've been looking forward to it since three o'clock."

He didn't feel much when he saw this sentence at the time, but now he seemed to have touched something, something that was shining brightly called anticipation.

The mobile phone on the cash register vibrated. Gu Chaoming picked it up and saw that it was a group message of "Three Auspicious Treasures" and a photo.

A corner of their supermarket was photographed from a distance, and the blurry black spot in the supermarket had to be zoomed in to the maximum to see that it was Gu Chaoming.

It was Cen Xili who posted the picture, and Cen Xili sent another message saying, "I just took a random photo after passing by, Gu Shuai, are you on duty?"

Gu Chaoming: "I'm here, why are you here, why don't you come to chat?"

Cen Xili: "My mother and I have something to do here, so we will pass by and come to you later."

And mother, three words, is the reason why Cen Xili can't come.

In the first year of high school, he fought with You Xin. Although Gu Chaoming and Su Bing didn't say that the reason for the fight was to avenge Cen Xili, but at that time Cen Xili's matter had not been settled yet, and the rumors in the grade could be heard.

Cen's mother passed in front of them when they were being punished. Gu Chaoming and Su Bing naturally understood the look in their eyes.

The two were still not convinced, but they didn't show it because they were Cen Xili's mother.

Cen Xili's mother had a grudge against the two of them, and suspected that they had that kind of relationship with her son.

When Gu Chaoming saw the words "with my mother" in Cen Xili's message, he felt a little uncomfortable but ignored it.

Cen Xili said that he would come to see you next time, Gu Chaoming said jokingly: "You must come next time, come and help me, you don't know how long the queue was just now, I doubt they all came out on this day .”

Cen Xili: "Who said the weather is so good today, it will be cold in a few days, and it will be winter."

Gu Chaoming: "How can it be so fast."

Cen Xili: "The season is changing, the weather changes a lot, don't catch a cold."

Gu Chaoming: "Okay, okay, Mama Cen."

Cen Xili sent a middle finger emoticon, and then said: "I just met Jian Fan on the road."

Seeing the word Jian Fan, Gu Chaoming asked, "Where is it? On the way here?"

Cen Xili: "Yes, it's just around the corner."

Cen Xili looked at Gu Chaoming and asked Lin Jianfan where he was: "He came to look for you?"

Gu Chaoming: "Yes."

Su Bing, who was silent, suddenly jumped out: "Gu Shuai."

Gu Chaoming: "Huh?"

Su Bing: "Now I'm going to make an appointment with him, please treat him to yogurt."

Whether Su Bing is clairvoyant or has a smooth ear, how does he know.

Gu Chaoming: "How do you know I asked him to drink yogurt?"

Su Bing: "Hey, I just said it casually, did you really invite me?"

Gu Chaoming: "..."

Cen Xili: "Gu Shuai, you call it self-inflicted."

Gu Chaoming: "Fuck you."

Su Bing: "Gu Shuai is dating a beauty."

Gu Chaoming: "About your fart."

Gu Chaoming: "Okay, okay, let's treat you to yogurt next time, and let me stop here."

Gu Chaoming asked Su Bing again: "Aren't you taking tutoring at this time? Why do you have time to play with your mobile phone?"

Su Bing: "My dad changed me to one-on-one tutoring, woo woo woo..."

Su Bing took a photo of a bunch of homework and sent it over.

"Your father, I'm going to die, two school masters, save me quickly, if my grades don't improve this time, my father will strangle me to death."

Gu Chaoming: "You go to Xili, my grades can't help you."

Su Bing: "Gu Shuai, be humble, come and help me with my homework."

Gu Chaoming: "Drink more hot water."

Cen Xili: "Hahahahaha"

Su Bing was angry: "You two!"

While Gu Chaoming was still asking Su Bing to ask for blessings, the sensor door of the supermarket opened slowly. Gu Chaoming looked up from his mobile phone and said something in a working nature: "Welcome."

"I am coming."

The clear and soft voice collided with Gu Chaoming's work-like welcome.Sunlight slipped in through the open sensor door, Lin Jianfan walked into the supermarket covered in sunshine, and looked at Gu Chaoming behind the cashier with a smile.

There were not many people in the store, Lin Jianfan came at a very timely time, Gu Chaoming had to be free.Lin saw Fan smiling and walked to the cashier, and Gu Chaoming put down his phone.

It's four o'clock and here he comes.

Obviously it was the expectation at four o'clock, but Gu Chaoming deliberately teased him with a questioning face: "Why are you here?"

Seeing that Fan didn't expect Gu Chaoming to say that, Lin was taken aback, wondering if you didn't ask me to come here yesterday?Or was Gu Chaoming just talking about it but he took it seriously?

Seeing Lin Jianfan's dumbfounded expression, Gu Chaoming knew that Lin Jianfan must have taken his joke seriously.

Gu Chaoming immediately accepted the questioning expression, smiled and said: "I'm just kidding you, why don't you have any sense of humor?"

Seeing Fan, Lin breathed a sigh of relief: "I was born without it."

"I don't believe it, who said yesterday that I can't afford it?"

Seeing Fan's hearty smile, Lin laughed for a while and suddenly said seriously: "To be honest, I'm not very good at joking. Sometimes I can't tell when others are joking, and I still take it seriously. You just asked me How come, I really believe it."

Gu Chaoming pointed to himself: "Blame me, blame me, blame me for making such a bad joke."

Lin Jianfan said again: "If you joke again in the future, I don't understand, take it seriously, lose your temper, don't take it seriously, just tell me."

Lin saw Fan's serious eyes, he really believed it just now, and wanted to escape in shame for a moment.

Gu Chaoming looked at Lin Jianfan, met his face, and knew that he was serious.

Gu Chaoming nodded and said, "Okay, then if you make a joke in the future, I will take it seriously and lose your temper, so don't forget it lightly, tell me."

Lin saw Fan nodded.

Gu Chaoming said again: "You have such a good temper, if you lose your temper, how big of a joke is that?"

"Who said I have a good temper, I have a very bad temper, please don't mess with me." Lin Jianfan said.

Hearing this sentence, Gu Chaoming remembered that when Lin Jianfan just transferred here, Cen Xili mediated the atmosphere and said that he had a good temper. He complied and said, "Who said I have a good temper?" he.

"Hahahaha, why did you learn from me?" There was an inexplicable shame in Lin Jianfan imitating what he once said.

"Hahahaha, I saw it..." Lin Jianfan smiled, the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing his snow-white teeth.

In the hot summer, Lin Jianfan's smile is like a cold soda with bubbles.The summer heat fades away, and the autumn is lingering. Lin Jianfan's smile has also turned into a ripe fruit with dew on the autumn tree branches. The clouds and mists have dispersed, revealing a pair of smiling eyes.

With a slight smile on the corner of Gu Chaoming's mouth, he looked at Lin Jianfan who was smiling. Lin Jianfan smiled happily. Gu Chaoming didn't know where he could see a trace of ease in Lin Jianfan's smile.

When Gu Chaoming saw him, he was mostly at school. It was rare to see him laughing so happily at school. Gu Chaoming was surprised for a moment.

He saw a brighter smile than the third one.

He liked to see Lin Jianfan smiling so happily, so he continued to make Lin Jianfan happy, and raised his voice with a wave of his hand: "Why is this guest officer coming to our supermarket? Do you stay at the top or stay in the store? We have a good one here." Snacks, there is a big discount on laundry detergent today..."

Gu Chaoming imitated the salesman's tone, which made Lin Jianfan who was standing in front of the cashier laugh.

Gu Chaoming just wanted to make Lin Jianfan smile, but a customer who came out from behind the shelf to check out was looking at him with strange crazy eyes.

Being seen by others, Lin Jianfan felt a little embarrassed, Gu Chaoming immediately retreated and returned to his normal work appearance.

Lin Jianfan stepped aside, and the customer put the selected products on the cash register.Gu Chaoming kept calm and scanned the QR codes one by one, not at all the idiot who made Lin Jianfan laugh just now, Lin Jianfan was covering his mouth and snickering.

Gu Chaoming wondered why he had a sudden convulsion, and his face almost fell off.

Gu Chaoming scanned the QR code for the customer earnestly, and only hoped to finish scanning and leave quickly, it was too embarrassing.

The customer seems to want to add something, and there are often customers who add things, and Gu Chaoming continues to scan his QR code.

Not long after, the customer held two bottles of newly added products and asked, "Is there a discount for this?"

Gu Chaoming looked up while scanning the QR code.

It's two bottles of laundry detergent!

Gu Chaoming didn't know whether he should laugh or find a crack in the ground to sneak in.

"Yes, yes." Gu Chaoming nodded while maintaining a business smile.

The customer walked out of the supermarket and Gu Chaoming couldn't help laughing, and said with his hand on his forehead, "It's too embarrassing."

Lin saw Fan laughing, Gu Chaoming looked at him: "You still laugh."

Seeing Fan taking a small step back, Lin hurriedly smiled and waved: "Stop laughing, stop laughing."

He promised not to smile, but the corners of his mouth still couldn't help but curl up.

The sound of children playing in the opposite square floated over, because there were customers checking out one after another, Gu Chaoming was afraid that Lin Jianfan would be bored, so he moved out a stool for him: "Sit down first, I will pay him."

Lin Jianfan sat on a small round stool that could be rotated, with his feet on the ground, and slowly rotated little by little, looking at Gu Chaoming's back.

Gu Chaoming randomly tied a bow on the back of the apron, because the bow was shaking slightly because of the movement of the cash register.Sitting and standing, Gu Chaoming's figure became taller, and Lin Jianfan just stared at the bow tie behind Gu Chaoming without saying a word.

The bow was loosely tied, and the dark purple tie flickered in front of his eyes. Lin Jianfan's gaze climbed along Gu Chaoming's back and stopped at Gu Chaoming's neck.

Gu Chaoming lowered his head slightly, and the bones in his neck were particularly prominent, like a small hill, across the hill, and above that was Gu Chaoming's short shaved hair.

Gu Chaoming's temple hair has always been short, not long.Lin Jianfan remembered that when he first transferred here, Gu Chaoming was wearing a black baseball cap, showing the short shaved hair behind.

Gu Chaoming took out the change and handed it to the customer, turned his head slightly to look at Lin Jianfan, only to find that Lin Jianfan was tilting his head slightly, his bright eyes staring at his back in a daze.

"Did you meet Xi Li on the way just now?" Gu Chaoming asked.

Lin Jianfan's gaze shifted from Gu Chaoming's short-shaved hair to his face, and he let out an "um" in his nasal cavity.

"Did he send you a message?" Lin Jianfan asked.

Gu Chaoming nodded his head, turned around and walked to the freezer while no one was there: "He just told me that he saw you on the road."

Yogurts of various flavors and sizes are arranged in an orderly manner in the freezer.Standing in front of the freezer, Gu Chaoming glanced up and down, originally planning to grab a bottle, but after thinking about it, he asked Lin Jianfan who was sitting on the stool: "Which one do you want?"

Lin Jianfan turned around on the stool with his feet and faced Gu Chaoming.Gu Chaoming wanted to ask him to come and choose, but Lin Jianfan said, "The one from last time will do."

last time?Gu Chaoming quickly searched for the previous memories in his mind, and started searching with the two keywords of yogurt and Lin Jianfan.

The last time you gave Lin Jianfan yogurt?It seems like running a few days ago?He was also complained by that boy Su Bing.

What kind of yogurt did he get at the commissary?Gu Chaoming found that he didn't have any impression of it at all. At that time, he seemed to have just taken a bottle from the freezer in the school canteen and didn't care about it.

Gu Chaoming: "..."

Lin Jianfan seemed to see that Gu Chaoming seemed to have forgotten what yogurt he bought at that time, and Lin Jianfan said: "Then the box in the middle of the second row."

Gu Chaoming reached out to take out the box of yogurt according to what Lin Jianfan said, this time he paid attention.

Strawberry-flavored, a big plump strawberry is painted on the bottle.

Gu Chaoming took out two bottles, and after scanning the code, he changed hands and threw a parabola to Lin Jianfan.

"Thank you." Lin Jianfan reached out to catch the yogurt and said.

"This is your prize, no need to say thank you."

Gu Chaoming unscrewed the yogurt cap, took a small step forward, bent down, and smiled, stretched out the yogurt bottle and clinked glasses with the yogurt bottle in Lin Jianfan's hand.

"Cheers." Gu Chaoming said jokingly.

Gu Chaoming bent down and met his eyes.Lin Jianfan's eyes slowly brought a smile, and the corners of his mouth curled up.Gu Chaoming responded to Lin seeing Fan's smiling eyes, and smiled too, then got up, and the sunlight poured from the gap between the two of them.

The yogurt slid down his throat, a slightly sweet and creamy smell, and his Adam's apple twitched. Gu Chaoming took only a few sips before tightening the bottle cap and putting it aside.

Lin saw that Fan was holding a yogurt bottle and sitting on a swivel chair, and he looked too cute. Today, he happened to be wearing a thick white sweater, which made his skin fairer, like a sheep lying on the grassland basking in the sun.

The supermarket was busy irregularly. Lin Jianfan hadn't finished his yogurt yet, and someone came to check out again.Seeing that Gu Chaoming was so busy, Lin saw that Fan was a little embarrassed to waste his time, so he twisted the bottle cap, stood up and said to Gu Chaoming: "You are busy with your work, I will go first, thank you for the yogurt."

This customer bought quite a lot, filling up the checkout counter. Gu Chaoming was paying for others, and had no hands, so he stopped Lin Jianfan who was about to leave: "Wait a minute."

Lin Jianfan stopped in his tracks and watched Gu Chaoming scan the QR codes to check out the items one by one.

Seeing off the customer, Lin Jianfan still wanted to ask, but Gu Chaoming didn't speak to him. He strode to the freezer, opened the freezer, and the air-conditioning in the freezer overflowed.

Lin saw Fan watching him, Gu Chaoming leaned over and took out a box of ice cream from the freezer, went to the cashier to scan the code, then took a plastic bag and handed it to him.

Lin Jianfan was a little confused by his series of operations, and before he could react, he subconsciously took the ice cream that Gu Chaoming handed him with his arm.

"I didn't want this..." Lin Jianfan said.

"I'll give it to you." Gu Chaoming followed Lin Jianfan's words.

Ice cream, a substitute for dessert.

"Why did you give me ice cream?" Seeing that Fan Huanghuang drank most of the yogurt in his hand, "Didn't you give me yogurt?"

"Don't ask so many questions. If I want to give it to you, you can take it, and you can make it a big show today."

Seeing that Fan didn't answer, Lin didn't know whether to reject or accept.

Gu Chaoming stood in front of him and said: "Yogurt is a reward for you to guess the meaning of my name. As for ice cream, you also helped me yesterday, so I thank you. It was nothing to do with you yesterday, but I was the one who dragged you. My dad is like this, you have seen it before, when you meet him in the future, ignore him, don't worry about his face, and don't worry about my face either. He is a shameless person, you have a thick skin, you just go around , if he is pestering you, you can call me. Remember, if he grabs you, you just leave and don’t stand there like a fool like before. "

Suddenly being called a fool, Lin saw that Fan raised his eyes to look at Gu Chaoming, and Gu Chaoming was looking at him after giving instructions.

Lin Jianfan nodded to Gu Chaoming's eyes: "Got it, you said it before."

"I said before, you are still stopped by him?"

Lin Jianfan was speechless for a while, looked at Gu Chaoming's sunny face, and asked, "Then what are you going to do in the future?"

Gu Chaoming also thought about this question, but the answer he finally got was that he could not escape Gu Tao, he could only go home.

Gu Chaoming replied vaguely: "Let's take a step and see."

Lin Jianfan asked again: "Then how do you plan to take the first step?"

Gu Chaoming didn't answer, he looked at Lin Jianfan.Lin Jianfan's question was fatal and hit his pain point.

Unable to escape, how to take the first step.The future life is blocked by a cloud of fog, and the road in the distance cannot be seen clearly, the crows are calling, and the leaves are falling.

Everything is desolate and confused.

He also wanted to run away from Gu Tao, wanted to move out directly, but that didn't work at all, he still had to go back to that home after all.

What should he do, what is the best and most appropriate way, he doesn't know.

He is not a smart, sophisticated person who can handle everything well and make the best decision he thinks. He has been living in chaos, and he doesn't know whether the step forward is solid or abyss.

He didn't have a precise answer, so the question to Lin Jianfan was only vague, "take one step at a time".

How do you take the first step, and where should you go?There was fog everywhere, and he had no answers.

He only replied: "I don't know, there will always be a way."

There will always be a way, Gu Chaoming smiled, feeling that the words he used to deceive Lin Jianfan and cover up his confusion were flimsy.

Lin Jianfan asked: "Then are you planning to stay at home now?"

Gu Chaoming nodded.

Home, a word that has represented safety, shelter, and haven since ancient times, is now a hiding place of violence and danger.

The violence that will come at an unknown time, the danger that will erupt at an unknown time.

"Then your father?" Lin Jianfan asked.

"Don't worry, he's not at home every day. He used to be away often, eight out of ten days."

Lin Jianfan still couldn't let go of his mind: "You said your father is pestering me, so I'll call you, and if you have something to do, remember to call me too."

Lin saw Fan raised his hand to his ear, making a phone call gesture while talking.

Lin Jianfan's voice was clean and his words were warm. The glass window filtered out the impurities in the sunlight, which penetrated into Lin Jianfan's white sweater, covering him completely.The skin is shining in the sun, the eyelashes are fluttering, and the whole person is warm, clean and simple.

Gu Chaoming suddenly wanted to hug him, embrace Lin Jianfan who was so clean and warm.

In Gu Chaoming's world, hug him as if he belongs to you.

Gu Chaoming remembered that when he walked across the bridge in the morning, the sparkling light and the broken gold covered the river surface, his heart was hit by something soft.That soft thing is Lin Jianfan's concern, his insistence on sending a message within 5 minutes after returning home, and his worry about making him call whenever he has something to do.

Gu Chaoming raised his lips and said hello, then raised his hand to rub Lin Jianfan's head, which was shining brightly under the sun.

The palm fell on Lin Jianfan's fluffy head, like a blanket that had been dried in the sun.

Seeing that Fan didn't hide, Lin had a smile on his lips and lowered his head slightly.Gu Chaoming touched it a few times and withdrew his hand: "Don't melt the ice cream, remember to eat it."

Seeing Fan nod his head, Gu Chaoming smiled again and said, "Don't look for me if you eat too much on such a cold day. I'm only in charge of treating guests, and I don't care about the follow-up."

Lin Jianfan joked: "Of course you have to take care of the follow-up, I'm still waiting to blackmail you."

"So you are so vicious? You still want to blackmail me, so don't eat it, give it back to me."

Gu Chaoming pretended to grab it, but Lin saw that Fan hid the ice cream behind his back: "Give it to me, why don't you take it back?"

"Didn't you just say no?"

"Who said I don't want it anymore?"

Gu Chaoming took a step forward to grab it, Lin saw Fan took a step back, and hurriedly said, "I want it, I want it."

Gu Chaoming smiled triumphantly: "Go back early."

Lin saw Fan holding ice cream and waving at him: "Then I'm leaving."

Gu Chaoming nodded.

The sensor door opened and closed, Gu Chaoming stood behind the cashier and watched Lin Jianfan step through the door.

After going out, Lin Jianfan turned around and waved goodbye to Gu Chaoming who was inside the glass window, his smile was brighter than sunshine.

Gu Chaoming looked at him and smiled, and watched Lin Jianfan's back cross the road, pass through the lively square, and melt into the golden sunlight.
