alternate performance

He was at fault first, Gu Cunkai knew that Xu Chenhe, who had just met him once, was acting emotionally, but he was still stubborn when he heard the other party's obvious non-sarcasm question: "Don't yell, you are not my brother."

"Then I'll just call you by your name," Xu Chenhe said with a leisurely look, "Gu Cunkai, eat the noodles."

"I don't eat it, who knows if you have poisoned it." Gu Cunkai turned his head, but he couldn't help being attracted by the strong fragrance.

When he was in Rongjing Town, he took care of the children. Xu Chenhe only thought that Gu Cunkai was a child at heart, so he had to be coaxed: "You haven't eaten, so you have to eat some staple food to fill your stomach. Besides, I brought you noodles. If you really come out I can only be held accountable when things go wrong, how can I be so stupid?"

Gu Cunkai thinks about it too, his parents are still upstairs, so he can't do anything to himself with this counterfeit.She grabbed the chopsticks and stuffed it into two mouthfuls, and felt that the noodles were different from the usual ones. Aunt Kang never made soup noodles, only mixed them.

"Don't tell me that you cooked the noodles." Gu Cunkai squinted at Xu Chenhe with his face trembling.

A manga that fell on the carpet was picked up by Xu Chenhe and flipped through. He raised his eyelids with a smile on his face: "It's me."

Gu Cunkai turned his face away: "You use my noodles, I won't thank you."

Xu Chenhe didn't care about that thank you. He put his knees on his knees and asked curiously: "Your brother is only in his early thirties. It's normal to find a partner. If you resist so much, do you think you want your brother to be single forever?"

After a while of silence, Gu Cunkai picked up the noodles and muttered: "Anyone is fine, but your face is not."

"I'm thinking that I don't look like a crooked melon." Xu Chenhe said.

"Are you really not understanding or are you pretending not to understand?" Gu Cunkai kicked his feet and slid in front of him with the swivel chair, "Your face looks exactly like Brother Jiang Hua, at best my brother treats you as someone else, don't you like it? My own people are still sticking to it, so what reason do people like you not hate."

Xu Chenhe was happy instead: "You are quite protective of your brother Jiang Hua."

Seeing that Xu Chenhe was not angry, Gu Cunkai was depressed: "That must be maintained, he is my second brother."

Gu Cunkai was only in the second grade of primary school when he met Jiang Hua who was brought home by Gu Congran for the weekend for the first time. Seeing his elder brother pile up snacks in front of Jiang Hua, Gu Cunkai hated this little brother with an unfamiliar face.

But when Jiang Hua taught him how to swim, helped him fight with robots, and took him for a ride on the street on a bicycle, he couldn't help but began to accept the existence of this person.

A child's world is easily colored, so that it covers the black dots that he accidentally drew on the white paper at first.

In Gu Cunkai's narration, Xu Chenhe slowly sketched out the image of Jiang Hua when he was young. If he was lucky enough to meet him back then, would the ending not be so tragic?

"But you're not that bad." Gu Cunkai sucked up all the noodle soup and licked the corner of his mouth, "It's just that the noodle was cooked too little."

In exchange for a bowl of noodles for a pertinent comment from the other party, Xu Chenhe didn't know whether to be angry or to laugh: "Success, I'll take it as your compliment."

"Be thin-skinned, I didn't praise you, I praised my noodles," Gu Cunkai said incongruously but confidently, "Does my noodles have anything to do with you?"

Xu Chenhe didn't care about him, but the smile on his face was less gentle than before: "I hope you can remember that it is your brother who is with me now, not you, no matter who he chooses, you have no right to interfere. Unless I am heinous, you'd better not accuse me of being wrong with a sublime attitude."

When Gu Cunkai was rarely outnumbered, he stiffened his neck and said, "Are you threatening me?"

Xu Chenhe was speechless: "Am I kidnapped or what? Why are you threatening you? Just to remind you, even if I can't be with your brother for a long time in the future, and he finds someone else, you'd better not play against him, after all, I believe You also don't want your brother to be alone for the rest of his life."

He closed the manga and put it on the stool at the end of the bed, patted his trouser legs and stood up: "Give me the bowl, I'll take it down and wash it."

"That manga..." Gu Cunkai said rather unnaturally, "You haven't finished reading it, so I can lend it to you."

Xu Chenhe took the empty bowl: "No, I just looked up what boys your age like to watch, so I can have a reference for giving gifts next time."

Dinner that day was still at Gu's house. Gu Congran didn't like to hold fancy birthday parties, so he cut a cake after the meal to count as his 31st birthday.Gu Shenli, who had always been the most antagonistic to his eldest son, was unambiguous at this time, and pushed a small pure black gift box over: "A long time ago, you said that I always prefer Cunkai, and you were even more angry when I bought him a supercar." I've been whining for a while, and while you're perfectly capable of buying what you like now, it's time to change your opinion about who you prefer to me with age."

Gu Cunkai was even more excited than his brother: "Is it a car key?"

"Gossip." Gu Congran pushed his head away, and turned to Gu Shenli and said, "This point of view has been changed as early as adulthood, but the problem of wanting to quarrel with you has not been cured, and I will try my best in the future... Thank you Dad. "

When it was Wei Fangling's turn, she took out a bag of coffee beans wrapped in silver glossy aluminum foil, and said, "I don't agree with you working overtime all night, but sometimes you can't help it if you need it. You can try this Andes coffee beans." Do coffee beans have an effect on refreshing you?"

"It's quite extravagant, beautiful mom. From now on, I will trouble you to contract my coffee beans." Gu Congran shifted his gaze to the envious Gu Cunkai, and his brother said flatly, "Don't look at me, I have already delivered it. "

"Why can't I remember?" Gu Congran asked.

Gu Cunkai flinched to Wei Fangling's side: "Didn't I send it to you for repairs, brother, you don't take it seriously after beating me?"

"Fart, show some face." Gu Congran spat.

After joking, Gu Cunkai took out the picture album seriously: "I have designed more than ten types of jewelry for you, one day you can choose one on a whim and make it into a real one, and after wearing it, you can go to a banquet to ensure that no one is as eye-catching as you. "

"Yes, Xiaokai," Wei Fangling pinched the ear of the youngest son, "When will you design a gemstone necklace for mom?"

Seeing Gu Cunkai's funny expression pretending to be in pain, Xu Chenhe bit the cake fork and smiled, and found that Gu Congran sitting next to him was staring straight at him, he slowly stopped laughing, but his eyes were still bent, Under the chandelier, his eyebrows were wide open: "What's wrong?"

"You really didn't prepare any gifts?" Gu Congran was not satisfied after receiving three gifts.

In front of the other party's family, Xu Chenhe didn't have the nerve to make up a lie: "Sneakily put it in the armrest box of your car."

Also using the word "secretly", Gu Congran thought it was a gift that only he could see, so he excused himself to go home early after dinner, grabbed Xu Chenhe's arm and hurried out.

Before he had time to say goodbye to Gu Congran's family, Xu Chenhe was stuffed into the carriage, and Wei Fangling chased him from the courtyard, holding a pot of hydrangea in his hand, and "knocked" on the passenger window.

Gu Congran lowered the car window: "Beauty, I am in a hurry to go to the world of two people."

"It's just that you are talkative, and I'm not looking for you." Wei Fangling took the lead to open the passenger door from the outside, and stuffed the pot of hydrangea into Xu Chenhe's arms, "Xiaohe, I dug two hydrangeas for you. The white one is a snowball." The blue one is Hanatemari, remember to water it every day.”

Xu Chenhe was flattered: "Thank you auntie, I will take good care of them."

Gu Congran looked at the potted flower through the car window: "Why do you make it look like it's your birthday?"

Xu Chenhe touched the bean-green porcelain basin, and retorted when Wei Fangling entered the room: "You are allowed to collect supercars, but I am not allowed to collect potted flowers?"

"Okay," Gu Congran prolonged the pronunciation of the words, started the engine and slid out of the driveway of the villa, "If you want to move the whole garden back, I think my mother has no objection, and the gardener will give it to you every year."

Thinking about the gift from Xu Chenhe, Gu Congran rushed all the way to Fujinyuan. Xu Chenhe nervously protected the dangling hydrangea in his arms. When he stopped the car, he rushed forward inertially and accidentally rubbed off a petal.

He twirled the weak petals and felt distressed: "Why are you in such a hurry to open?"

The sundries in the armrest box were messed up by Gu Congran, and he finally pulled out a palm-sized Persian blue velvet box from the depths.He weighed it for a bit, and guessed, "Is it a crystal ball?"

It sounds like the kind of thing that the girls in primary school loved to buy in boutiques. Xu Chenhe held the porcelain and solidified the flowerpot, opened the car door and stepped out: "You guess it yourself, I went upstairs .”

"I'll take you up." Gu Congran got out of the car, quickly followed Xu Chenhe who was running to the elevator with the velvet box in his hand, "Stay overnight by the way."

Xu Chenhe tapped the elevator button: "It's not popular among Chinese to open presents face to face."

"Then I'll hide in the room and open it, so it won't affect you." Gu Congran fumbled for the velvet on the box.

The elevator door opened, and Xu Chenhe walked in first: "It's up to you."

After returning to the house, Gu Cong ran rushed towards the room, Xu Chenhe helplessly shouted behind him: "Let's leave it alone, it's not something mysterious."

Having said that, when Gu Congran opened the box in front of him, he was still concerned, but with a nonchalant expression on his face: "Is this gift okay? If not, I will give it away next time."

Lying in the velvet box is a chic crystal whale, two inches in size, with its tail raised up, as if it would swim away happily if given a sea.

If you touch it with your fingertips, the whale's sea-blue back is smooth and cool, except for the slight unevenness in the coloring, the rest does not affect the appearance.

"Is it okay?" Xu Chenhe asked, "Its back will be bald by you."

"Will I kill you if I say no?" Gu Congran raised his head and asked, but met Xu Chenhe's worried eyes. He quickly covered the box, and changed the hand touching the back of the whale to Xu Chenhe's chin, "Hey, Don't make such an expression, I was stunned because I didn't receive this kind of gift, how could I not like it."

"What kind of gift is this kind of gift?" Xu Chenhe became even more worried, "This is really worthless, but I can't think of what you lack for valuable things."

"It's not a question of value, it's a surprise." Gu Congran squeezed Xu Chenhe's cheeks, "I have received countless gifts over the years, but I can guess every one before I open it. The answer, this one alone, was unexpected—thank you."

Xu Chenhe breathed a sigh of relief, patted Gu Congran's hand away and rubbed his fingers: "It's the first time I do this kind of handwork, if you don't like it, you will really kill me."

Now Gu Congran was really stunned: "Did you do it yourself?"

"Well," Xu Chenhe nodded, "I found a small crystal crafting studio in the old city, and asked the master master to teach me how to use machine polishing and high-temperature coloring. There may be some flaws in my debut work, but it is—"

Before he finished speaking, Xu Chenhe was pulled over by Gu Congran's shoulders, and a kiss was forced on his lips: "There is no flaw, I like it very much, I want... put it on the bedside, let it swim into my bed In a dream."

Xu Chenhe passively took a wet and sticky kiss, but his mind was terribly sober, he couldn't feel the sweetness, and couldn't integrate into the emotion.After parting, he wiped his lips with the knuckle of his index finger and said, "Actually... there is a photo under the sponge, you can look at it when I'm not around."
