Professor Gong's History of Forced Evolution

God motioned him to speak.What are you pretending to be cool?I'm tired of watching this, this is not the normal reaction a couple should have after reuniting after a long absence!

However, the emperor was not in a hurry and the eunuch was in a hurry, no matter how Zhang Yunchao poked him, Gong Ming didn't express it at all.And He Chen was chatting seriously with Du Jia the whole time, and his eyes didn't drift to Gong Ming at all.See Zhang Yunchao so impatient!

While Du Jia and He Chen were chatting, Zhang Yunchao anxiously intervened and asked Xiao Chen, "Are you okay soon? If you're okay, come have a late-night snack with us! It's been a long time since I've seen you. Everyone misses you. "After saying the last sentence, he obviously shifted his gaze to Gong Ming.

This time, He Chen finally turned his head and followed Zhang Yunchao's gaze to rest on Gong Ming.He looked directly at Gong Ming, and readily agreed: "Okay, wait for me to get the coat, and come out right away!"

After He Chen put on his coat and came out, he followed Zhang Yunchao and his party to a hot pot restaurant near the theater.The situation during the meal was the same as that in the backstage of the theater just now, He Chen was still talking with Du Jia, Zhang Yunchao was so anxious that he kicked Gong Ming's leg under the table.

However, Gong Ming still calmly lowered his head and rinsed the meat.He didn't open his mouth to communicate more with He Chen, but just put the boiled meat into He Chen's empty plate from time to time.He knew he was a carnivore and remembered his preference for lamb in hot pot.

During the dinner, Gong Ming received angrily looking at him from Zhang Yunchao from time to time, but in the end Gong Ming just quietly listened to the conversation between He Chen and Du Jia, without interjecting.It wasn't that he didn't want to reminisce with He Chen or get close to him, but since he stood face to face in front of He Chen backstage in the theater, he felt the alienation He Chen showed towards him.He was deliberately keeping a distance from himself, but it didn't show on the surface like he did when he saw him last Christmas. The performance was strong, but it was enough for Gong Ming, the targeted person, to feel it.

When it was about 10:30, He Chen looked at his watch, got up and said sorry to everyone: "I'm sorry, it's too late today, I should go back. I'm going to the orchestra's rehearsal tomorrow morning, so I can't be late. I have to read the score again tonight. I am very happy to see you all today and have dinner with you. I will stay here for a while, and when I find time, I will invite you to dinner again to make amends."

"It's okay, it's okay! If you have business to do, go back and get busy. We have nothing to do here." Having said that, Zhang Yunchao threw the key to Gong Ming and said to him, "Drive my car and send Xiaochen back!"

He Chen glanced at the car keys thrown on the table, then walked out while refusing: "No need, my hotel is very close to here, just a few steps away."

"It's so cold outside, why go away!" Zhang Yunchao said to He Chen with a smile, "You don't have to be afraid of causing him trouble, I didn't see that your brother Gong Ming didn't drink a drop of wine at night, and he's just waiting to drive you back now! "

Gong Ming picked up the key on the table, and deliberately stepped on Zhang Yunchao's foot when he got up, causing him to grin his teeth in pain.Gong Ming looked at him and thought, now you can finally keep your mouth shut for a while.Even though this night, he felt the atmosphere of He Chen's alienation from him, and he didn't want to deliberately get close to make him feel uncomfortable, so he chose to escape completely.Gong Ming originally wanted to wait for He Chen to stay stable for a while, and then he would slowly get closer and narrow the distance.But thanks to Zhang Yunchao, he can no longer maintain this safe distance no matter what.

He chased after He Chen and walked out of the hot pot restaurant.Before He Chen walked away completely, he drove the car to his side, then pushed open the co-pilot's door, and said to He Chen: "Get in the car, I'll see you off!"

80. Confusion and Explosion

Gong Ming parked the car in front of He Chen, He Chen looked at the car door opened towards him, and stood still for a few seconds, hesitating.When Gong Ming urged him to "get in the car" again, He Chen finally made up his mind and stepped into the car.

Like two years ago, Gong Ming turned to his side, fastened his seat belt considerately, and then asked him, "Where is the hotel you are staying at?"

He Chen opened his mouth to announce a name. After Gong Ming navigated, he stepped on the accelerator and drove He Chen straight to the destination.The two were silent all the way, and He Chen had no intention of communicating with Gong Ming at all.Until Gong Ming saw that the hotel where He Chen was staying was about to arrive, he really couldn't care less, so he had to ask He Chen: "Did the orchestra book this hotel for you?"

"Yes." He Chen answered briefly.

Gong Ming continued to ask, "How long will you live in?"

He Chen said truthfully: "In mid-January, the live band's performance here will end."

"What happened after that?" Gong Ming asked worriedly, "During the dinner just now, I heard you tell Du Jia that you have completed all your studies at Shengdifan, and when the school starts in March, you can go to Yinda can graduate after completing the formalities. What are your plans for the interim period of one and a half months?"

"I will find a house as soon as possible before mid-January." He Chen replied without hesitation, obviously after careful consideration.

He would choose to rent a house. Gong Ming was not surprised, but he still told He Chen: "If you can't find a suitable place to live, you can go back to my house first. I have always kept your room, and I will tell you before going abroad. Same look."

After Gong Ming's voice fell, another half hour passed.Just when he almost thought he would not get an answer from He Chen, He Chen's voice suddenly broke into his ears.He Chen stared ahead, and said in a cold voice: "It seems that we don't have this kind of relationship."

At this time, the car just arrived at the hotel where He Chen was staying.Gong Ming stepped on the brake, calmed down his emotions, turned his head to look at He Chen, and said seriously: "Even if there is no such relationship, I am still an acquaintance brother of yours, right? If there is no such relationship, it will not affect my taking care of you .”

He Chen looked at Gong Ming expressionlessly and said, "Thank you, but I don't need it."

——To this day, you don't understand what I need.I have grown up and don't need your care anymore.

After He Chen said this, he opened the car door and left without looking back.He didn't want to stay by his side for too long, because he found that he would soon be overwhelmed.After hearing Gong Ming's last sentence, he suppressed his anger and said the last sentence.He didn't want Gong Ming to see his mood swings, and he didn't want two years later, he was still that emotional child in Gong Ming's eyes.But he doesn't know how long he can last...

In fact, during the few hours when I reunited with Gong Ming tonight, every time he appeared, every time he asked questions, every time he looked at him, even such small actions as helping him with food and fastening his seat belt, would arouse his attention. mood swings.He has been deliberately pretending to turn a blind eye, the cloud is calm, and he is about to pretend to be internally injured.He didn't know how long he could pretend like this, but he knew that he couldn't be the same as before. As soon as he waved his hand, he immediately stuck to it with his tail wagging happily.Such a pleasing love will not last long, and he does not hope that after two years, he will still be the soft and obedient child in his eyes.

I don't know if it was because when He Chen got out of the car and closed the door, the cold winter wind brought in. When Gong Ming looked at He Chen's leaving back, his body and heart felt half cold.When He Chen came back this time, he was indeed different from before.If he had avoided seeing him as decisively as he did when he went to France last Christmas, and turned around and ran away, Gong Ming might feel better in his heart.Avoiding anger with him, resenting him, and punishing him at least shows that He Chen still has him in his heart, but now He Chen's attitude of completely treating him as a passerby makes him a little at a loss and has no idea what to do .

While watching He Chen's leaving back, Gong Ming was absorbed in thought. He didn't come back to his senses until several urging car horns sounded behind him.Stepping on the accelerator and turning the steering wheel, Gong Ming moved the car away from the front of the hotel.

However, when he turned onto the main road, a cell phone notification sounded from the passenger seat, reminding Gong Ming of the fact that He Chen's cell phone had been left on his car.

After Gong Ming found out, he immediately parked the car in the parking space in front of the hotel.Then, he took He Chen's cell phone from the passenger seat and went straight to the hotel lobby.After asking the front desk staff for the room number where He Chen lived, Gong Ming took the elevator to the room where He Chen lived, and knocked on his door.

When he arrived here by the elevator, Gong Ming had already thought that after returning the phone to He Chen, he would take this opportunity to continue the conversation just now.He wanted to ask He Chen if he still remembered the message he sent him before he went abroad to get on the plane.He wanted to fulfill the promise he made at that time, start over with He Chen, and live a good life.

However, when the door of He Chen's room opened and Gong Ming saw the person standing at the door, his thoughts were completely dispelled.Gong Ming saw the young man named Chen Peng who helped He Chen untie his tie in the theater, standing at the door of He Chen's room wearing a bathrobe and with wet hair.

Did he find the wrong room?Gong Ming glanced at the house number subconsciously and found that there was nothing wrong.At this moment, he suddenly saw Chen Peng pointing in the direction of his hand and said: "This is Xiaochen's mobile phone, right? He is changing clothes inside, you can leave it to me!"

Gong Ming glanced down at his outstretched hand, but did not put the phone in his hand.While he was hesitating, Chen Peng suddenly slapped his forehead, looked at Gong Ming with a raised tone and said excitedly: "I finally remembered, are you the uncle who came to visit He Chen in our apartment last Christmas?"

Gong Ming didn't make a sound, and continued to look at Chen Peng talking to himself, "I mean, I thought you looked familiar when I saw you backstage in the theater just now. Look at my memory, I just remembered, it's really..."

"Chen Peng!" He Chen's voice interrupted Chen Peng's self-talk. Gong Ming didn't see anyone else, only heard his voice coming from the room, "Who are you talking to?"

"Your uncle!" Chen Peng shouted towards the direction of the room, "Xiaochen, come out quickly, your uncle is here to give you a mobile phone!"

When Chen Peng finished speaking, Gong Ming saw that He Chen had already walked out of it.When he walked slowly in front of Gong Ming, Gong Ming couldn't hold back any longer and grabbed his arm, "Come out with me, I have something to ask you!"

Gong Ming dragged He Chen out of the room, and while closing their door, pushed He Chen against the wall of the corridor.Gong Ming pressed He Chen's shoulders with both hands, and watched He Chen very closely.A corner of the white bed sheet in the room flashed through his mind, and he almost blurted out asking him, "What's the relationship with that kid in the room?"

But when Gong Ming thought of He Chen's indifferent expression when he faced him all night today, he immediately gave up.He felt that even if he really let go of his self-esteem and asked this question, he probably wouldn't get an answer from He Chen.But the anger that had been pent up in his chest all night broke out and he could no longer suppress it.

Gong Ming put his leg against He Chen, grabbed the back of He Chen's head with one hand, bent down and kissed him hard.

81. Tough and Frustrated

He Chen had never encountered such a situation where Gong Ming had intimate contact with him so forcefully, and he subconsciously raised his hands to press on Gong Ming's chest.However, He Chen's resistance had little effect, and Gong Ming was pushed completely still by him.Because he was worried that he would escape, Gong Ming used more strength to restrain He Chen's body.

This kiss, Gong Ming was not polite from the beginning.The moment he touched He Chen's lips, Gong Ming didn't linger on the surface, but pried open He Chen's lips without hesitation, pounded them into his mouth, and began to stir inside.

At the moment when Gong Ming's tongue broke into him, He Chen felt a deep resentment.This person, this person's kiss, is indeed what he has been thinking about day and night, but he does not want to have such an unclear entanglement with him at this moment, when he has not figured out anything.

Kissing in the corridor of the hotel, a place that could be seen by others at any time, He Chen felt ashamed, humiliated, and furious.But Gong Ming was against his legs, pressing him against the wall so hard that he couldn't move a step.He pushed Gong Ming with all his strength, but he didn't move at all.He Chen had no choice but to put down his hand on his chest, and instead hit Gong Ming's back indiscriminately.

Probably because he moved too much, his arm knocked on the hotel door inadvertently.Chen Peng inside heard the sound, felt something was wrong, opened the door and walked out immediately.Seeing He Chen being kissed and struggling, without saying a word, Chen Peng immediately stepped forward and pushed away the person who forced He Chen, and then pulled He Chen behind him.

Then, he yelled at Gong Ming vigilantly: "What are you doing to others in public? Be careful, I will call the police and arrest you!"

Chen Peng's scolding woke Gong Ming up. He glanced at He Chen who was dragged behind him and his red and swollen lips, and then he realized what he had done to He Chen just now.

At this moment, when Gong Ming raised his head and looked at He Chen, Chen Peng noticed that the person who kissed Xiao Chen forcefully just now was actually Gong Ming.When he rushed out just now, he only noticed He Chen's way of resisting all the time, and he didn't pay attention to the person pressing on He Chen at all.The lights in the hotel corridor were dim, and when Gong Ming staggered and was almost pushed down by him just now, Chen Peng didn't recognize him either.Now seeing him standing in front of his eyes, the scene of him pressing Xiaochen against the hotel wall to kiss just now flashed through Chen Peng's head, his jaw almost dropped in surprise, "Aren't you Xiaochen's uncle?"

After the question came out, Chen Peng didn't get a positive answer from Gong Ming. He turned to look at He Chen in doubt, looked at him in disbelief and said, "You..."

Before Chen Peng could go any further, He Chen confessed his mistake and said, "I'm sorry, Chen Peng, I lied to you, he's not my uncle."

Seeing He Chen's remorseful face and apologizing to him, Gong Ming felt mixed emotions in his heart.A voice quietly emerged from the bottom of his heart, questioning and shouting: Why should I apologize to him?I'm not your real uncle, why are you apologizing to him?

Then, He Chen raised his hand to wipe the corner of his mouth, and told Chen Peng frankly: "He is my ex-boyfriend."

"..."

Chen Peng looked at He Chen in bewilderment, and then turned his head to glance at Gong Ming. He felt that his small brain could not move anymore.Although when he was studying in France, he knew that Xiaochen's sexual orientation was male, which was different from his.He also met several boys who pursued Xiao Chen, but Xiao Chen flatly rejected them all.He knew that Xiaochen liked men, but he had never seen him fall in love with a man.So in the process of getting along with Chen Peng and Xiaochen, he didn't feel that Xiaochen was any different from him.He is an out-and-out straight man, even though he knew that Xiao Chen's sexual orientation was male, but in his daily life, he did not shy away from Xiao Chen.Until now, Chen Peng still has no specific understanding of this.

However, for a person who had never seen a pig running, but who saw a pig climbing a tree, Chen Peng's whole head couldn't help it for a while, and fell into a state of bewilderment.It wasn't until he felt a strong gaze towards his right hand that Chen Peng noticed that it was Gong Ming who had been staring at his hand holding Xiaochen's wrist.

Thinking of the previous relationship between the two of them and what he had just done to stop him, Chen Peng quickly let go of He Chen's wrist, and said awkwardly to the two of them: "Then what... let's go into the room and have a good talk! Don't mess around in the corridor. Damn, all the people living on this floor are members of our orchestra, and if they saw it, it would be bad for Xiaochen. I’ll go downstairs first and have a look around.”

Chen Peng turned around and wanted to go back to his room to pick up his clothes, but he was grabbed by He Chen just as he stepped back, "You don't have to go."

Chen Peng turned his head and looked at He Chen suspiciously, but He Chen didn't look at him, but looked directly at Gong Ming, and said calmly, "This is your room, you are not the one who should leave."

Gong Ming saw He Chen looking at him indifferently, with disgust on his face, he turned around and left without saying a word.Riding the elevator all the way down, when he walked out of the hotel gate, Gong Ming was still in a daze.He especially remembered his thoughts when he came to find He Chen 15 minutes ago with his mobile phone.He wanted to have a clear talk with He Chen and get back together, but he didn't want to become like this in a blink of an eye.

Thinking about it, he blamed himself for not controlling his emotions well at the time.Kissing He Chen forcefully made him feel disgusted, and he became even more resistant to himself.Gong Ming didn't expect that he would do such a thing. This was the first time in his life that he acted faster than he could think. Before his head gave any instructions, his body took the lead.This was also the first time in his life that he felt that calming down his emotions was such a difficult thing.

Until he returned to Zhang Yunchao's car now, Gong Ming still felt depressed and overwhelming.He wanted to calm down his irritable thoughts, but the white sheets of the hotel flashed through his mind from time to time, Chen Peng's hand holding He Chen's wrist, and He Chen's eyes when he apologized to Chen Peng made Gong Ming unable to keep up. calm down.He felt that if this went on like this, he might have to play their little movie in his mind tonight, and he suddenly had a splitting headache.

He took out his mobile phone, called Zhang Yunchao, and asked, "Where is it? I'll send you the car there."

Zhang Yunchao was taken aback when he received a call from Gong Ming.After hearing Gong Ming's question, he came back to his senses and asked him: "Where are you? Why are you calling me at this time, and you aren't with Xiaochen?"

Gong Ming said: "I sent him back to the hotel, and now he's downstairs from his hotel."

As Gong Ming's voice fell, Zhang Yunchao questioned loudly from the microphone: "You just send him back and it's over?"

Zhang Yunchao looked at the time on his watch. Less than 40 minutes had passed since they left.Hearing the silence of Gong Ming on the other side of the microphone, it was acquiescence. He said in a tone of hatred, "I specially created an opportunity for you, and you just came back with your tail between your legs without doing anything?"

"Okay, don't educate me." Gong Ming's head is already in a mess, and there is still a loudspeaker in his ear. He just felt exhausted, lowered his voice, and asked Zhang Yunchao again, "Where are you?" ? I'll send you the car and have a drink with you by the way."

Hearing Gong Ming's downcast tone, Zhang Yunchao stopped taunting him, and told Gong Ming honestly, "I'm in Shuxiangju."

In his lifetime, he unexpectedly encountered a situation where Gong Ming took the initiative to ask him to drink.Usually he was the one who pulled Gong Ming repeatedly, and Gong Ming was the one who reluctantly accompanied him for a symbolic drink or two, but today he offered to ask him for a drink or two.Zhang Yunchao's heart was pounding, he suddenly became a little worried about Gong Ming, he knew that something extraordinary must have happened to him.And this bad thing, don't ask, it's probably related to He Chen.

Half an hour later, Gong Ming drove Zhang Yunchao's car to Shuxiangju.When he walked into Zhang Yunchao's private box, Zhang Yunchao had already ordered wine and dishes to be prepared.Zhang Yunchao knew that Gong Ming didn't like to drink, and the only thing he drank a little more was red wine.

After Gong Ming sat down, he opened a bottle of red wine, poured it into the wine glass for him, and asked Gong Ming, "Tell me! What's going on?"

Gong Ming didn't say anything, picked up the wine glass, and drank the red wine in the glass.Zhang Yunchao felt that this kid really had a problem today, but he was really anxious to see it, and couldn't help but preach again: "Don't talk, what happened? You want to worry about me to death, don't you? Tell me, okay?" Yi created an opportunity for the two of you. You send him back to the hotel alone, follow him, coax him, and make up with him again, won’t you be good? You called and came back in such a disgraceful manner, you really failed my painstaking efforts."

Zhang Yunchao babbled on and on, Gong Ming just looked down at the wine glass in a daze, without saying a word.Just as Zhang Yunchao wanted to get angry, Du Jia held him down.He could be seen that he was sincerely making him anxious.

After drinking the second glass of wine, Gong Ming thought of the scene where He Chen was struggling to resist just now, and said in a low tone: "Do you think he is still the same Xiaochen as before? If it is as simple as you said, I don't have to sit down." I'm looking for you to drink with me here."

Hearing Gong Ming finally spoke, Zhang Yunchao's anxious mood finally calmed down a little.He also poured himself a glass of wine, and then followed Gong Ming's words, and then continued: "Indeed, Xiao Chen has indeed changed a lot when he comes back this time. He looks more stable than before, and his conversation is more mature. Especially on stage, he looks personable and a model of a promising young man."

"Yeah." Du Jia praised and said, "He has become more mature and better than before. These are some good changes."

Gong Ming shook his wine glass, and laughed at himself in a trance: "He has grown up and become better than before, maybe he doesn't need me anymore."

82. Others and Friends

"What are you thinking?" Zhang Yunchao looked at Gong Ming and asked, "Xiao Chen told you this?"

Gong Ming shook his head silently.

"Then what are you thinking about here?" Zhang Yunchao reprimanded Gong Ming with a look of hatred on his face, "Why are you getting older and have the problem of adolescent sentimentality?"

Gong Ming didn't have much emotional ups and downs, but calmly refuted Zhang Yunchao: "I didn't think about it, I saw it."

Zhang Yunchao moved his face closer and asked him nervously, "What did you see?"

Gong Ming paused for a while, and finally told Zhang Yunchao: "There are other men in his hotel room."

Zhang Yunchao was dumbfounded after hearing this, and opened his mouth wide in surprise, but made no sound.Du Jia took over the conversation and asked Gong Ming, "Could it be that you got the wrong room, or that the orchestra was short of funds and booked a standard room for him and other orchestra members?"

When Du Jia asked this question, he felt a little guilty.He knew that it was impossible for Gong Ming to make such a low-level mistake as getting the room wrong, and his second guess was a bit far-fetched. How could the famous Paris Philharmonic Orchestra be short of funds?

Gong Ming didn't want to mention to them that besides the accommodation, he also came to this conclusion through several other things that happened.He only casually revealed the fact to Du Jia and Zhang Yunchao, "That man is his classmate, I met him in Xiaochen's apartment in France last year. When Xiaochen was studying in France, they lived in the same apartment .”

Having said that, Gong Ming's line of defense completely collapsed.He suddenly recalled last Christmas, when he went to France to see Xiaochen.All the other students in the apartment have returned to China, only Xiaochen and Chen Peng are left.He originally thought that Xiaochen didn't want to come back because he was angry with him.But now it seems that the reason why he did not return to China may not be the case.Even if Xiaochen didn't want to come back because there was no one he wanted to see in the country, what about Chen Peng?The only long vacation in a year for international students, why didn't he take advantage of the rare vacation to go back to China to accompany his parents and meet friends, instead of staying with Xiaochen?

In the huge apartment, there were only the two of them left. They drank and chatted together until dawn on Christmas.Xiaochen aspires to be a pianist, and Chen Peng is a violinist in a symphony orchestra.The two share similar interests and are of the same age, and they have lived together day and night under the same roof for so long.When Gong Ming saw Chen Peng helping Xiao Chen untie his tie, and saw him kissing him forcefully, he thought Xiao Chen was being bullied by him, so he immediately stepped forward to help Xiao Chen.He is so considerate and caring towards Xiao Chen, it's impossible for him to fall in love with each other for a long time.Xiaochen was hurt by him and left. If he is in a foreign country and his heart is empty, and he meets such a person who can heal his wounds, stay by his side, and take care of him, it is hard to guarantee that Xiaochen will not be tempted by him... …

Zhang Yunchao looked at Gong Ming worriedly, unable to say a word.He knew how serious Gong Ming's feelings for Xiao Chen were. In the past, he had always hoped that he could find someone to settle down with, and he was always glad that such a person finally appeared beside Gong Ming.But with this result now, he didn't know how to comfort him.He knew that Gong Ming was noble, and inappropriate words would only cause counterproductive results.Seeing what he said just now, he had to believe that Xiaochen had someone else.

On the contrary, Du Jia insisted not to believe that Xiaochen would empathize with others. He said to Gong Ming: "I don't believe that Xiaochen will have someone else. Sometimes what I see may not be the truth. Xiaochen is studying in France. I know best about the days when he completed three years of study in two years. In order to finish his studies early, he raced against time to study. In addition to catching up with his studies, he also went to work part-time in cafes. How could he have time to talk? In love!"

Seeing that both Gong Ming and Zhang Yunchao were silent, Du Jia took out his mobile phone, flipped through the address book and said, "I'll call Xiaochen right now and ask him directly!"

"Don't!" After Gong Ming heard this, he immediately stopped him.

Zhang Yunchao had already snatched the phone from Du Jia when Gong Ming's voice fell.Gong Ming looked at Du Jia gratefully, and said, "It's already so late today, so don't ask. My appearance just now disturbed him, and I don't want to annoy him more."

Zhang Yunchao shook his head at Du Jia, Du Jia turned his head to look at Gong Ming, and reluctantly nodded at him.He originally thought that instead of everyone guessing here, it would be better to ask the person concerned.But when he met Gong Ming's almost pleading eyes, Du Jia immediately gave up in his heart.Knowing Gong Ming for so long, he has never seen such a lonely expression on his face.Du Jia thought that he would give up in front of Gong Ming tonight, and he would ask Xiaochen when he was away.

However, Du Jia did not expect this opportunity to come so soon...

At noon the next day, Du Jia received a call from He Chen.He Chen borrowed a car from Du Jia on the phone. He said he wanted to go to city A to visit his mother's grave on New Year's Day, but because he didn't get a driver's license himself, he still wanted to trouble Du Jia to be his driver and go with him a city.

After hearing this, Du Jia readily agreed, "No problem. I will take care of the car and driver. I will have three days off for the new year."

He Chen: "Thank you, Brother Jia!"

"Don't be polite to me!" After dealing with Xiao Chen's matter, Du Jia thought that it was time for him to help Gong Ming find out the truth.Then, he asked Xiaochen on the phone, "Where are you? Let's have lunch together."

He Chen hesitated for a moment, then told Du Jia the address of a theater, and then asked Du Jia, "Can I bring a friend with me?"

"Friend?" Du Jia repeated subconsciously, and Gong Ming said that he saw someone else around Xiaochen immediately appeared in his mind.

He Chen tentatively asked in a low voice: "Is it not possible? I promised him that I would have lunch with him at noon. If I suddenly dumped him like this, I don't feel very good."

Hearing Xiaochen's question, Du Jia immediately reacted, and quickly responded: "Yes, yes, bring him along!"

Du Jia booked a box next to the theater where Xiao Chen was rehearsing, and seeing He Chen bring in a young man about his age, Du Jia reckoned that the person Ming Ge saw yesterday was him.He felt that the dinner he had made today was just right, and He Chen brought him here, so he could take this opportunity to help Gong Ming find out the truth.

During the meal, Du Jia's eyes kept wandering between the two, carefully observing every detail of their relationship.The friend He Chen brought was indeed considerate and caring towards him, and seemed to be a little more than a simple friend between men, but if they really had something, Du Jia didn't think it was like it.

At the end of this lunch, while Chen Peng was going to the bathroom, Du Jia finally asked him the purpose of his visit without any scruples: "You and your friend have nothing but friendship. Does it matter?"

83. Probe and crux

"Besides friendship, is there any other relationship..." He Chen repeated Du Jia's words, and then realized, "You must have misunderstood him as my boyfriend, right?"

Du Jia did not refute, but looked at He Chen, and continued to test: "Then is he right?"

He Chen's expression was a little helpless, he didn't expect to cause such a misunderstanding.But it didn't look like Dujia was joking, and when he looked at him, he showed an expression eagerly waiting for an answer.He Chen sighed, and told Du Jia: "He is a straight man, even straighter than Brother Da Chao."

Hearing this metaphor, Du Jia smiled reassuringly.Then, He Chen pondered for a while, and recalled Du Jia's questioning from the time he invited him to dinner. He Chen felt that Du Jia had obviously come prepared.Today was the first time he saw Chen Peng, and they just sat here and had a meal honestly. This alone could not arouse Du Jia's suspicion.Thinking about it this way, there was only one possibility left.

He Chen looked at Du Jia, and suddenly asked him, "Did Gong Ming ask you to ask?"

After hearing this, Du Jia was stunned for a moment because of the title.Not only did He Chen no longer call him "Brother Gong Ming" as before, but now he didn't even have the word "brother" left, and he even called him by his first name.However, Du Jia has no time to worry about the address right now. Gong Ming kept his eyes on his face, waiting for his answer.

Du Jia wanted to find out the truth, but he volunteered on his own initiative, and did not get Gong Ming's consent.He still has to carry the blame himself.So, Du Jia shook his head at He Chen, and told him: "It's not Brother Ming, it's what I want to ask myself."

He Chen sarcastically said with an angry face: "Yeah, with such a noble personality, how could he lower his face and ask someone for help?"

He Chen's words gave Du Jia a clue.He felt that he could understand He Chen's mood, and probably understood what he was angry about now.Thinking of this, he felt that Gong Ming and He Chen still had an affair.So, he asked He Chen tentatively again: "Are you there now?"

"No." When He Chen said this, Chen Peng had already returned from the bathroom and pushed open the door of the box.

Knowing that there was no one around him now, Du Jia felt relieved, and he never asked He Chen again.After the meal, Du Jia discussed the time and place with He Chen, and agreed to drive to City A to visit He Chen's mother's grave on New Year's Day.

The day before New Year's Day, Du Jia brought Gong Ming to Zhang Yunchao's shop and handed him the car keys.He told Gong Ming the time and place to meet with He Chen one by one, and at the same time he did not forget to add: "Brother Ming, I asked Xiao Chen when I met that day. His friend is a straight man, and he doesn't have that kind of relationship with him." , and there is no one around him now, and he is still single."

Gong Ming took the hand of the key and paused for a moment.Then, he saw Du Jia continue to say to him: "Based on my intuition when I met him last time, I think Xiaochen still likes you very much and cares about you very much, he is just still angry with you. I think if you can get him to vent his anger, maybe you won't be far away from his return."
