rival crush on me

Chapter 32 The so-called love

After returning from camping, Guo Qiao found that it was okay, Cao Jun was still the same as before, and he did not show any more ambiguous behavior, so he relaxed a little.

Guo Qiao began to think in his heart that he should move out as soon as possible.I have to wait a month before my salary is paid, and I have to repay Cao Jun's money first. During this period, I have borrowed three to four thousand yuan one after another.Well, it seems that I can’t rent a house. Even if I don’t rent a house that is paid every quarter, I rent a single room of 4000 yuan and pay a one-month deposit, which will cost 800 yuan. , Set aside a month's food expenses, two thousand is obviously not enough.Or don't pay back Cao Jun's money first, but in this way, will Cao Jun feel uncomfortable, avoiding him in such a hurry.Why don't you stay for another month, and then find a good reason to move out.

Cao Jun knew that Guo Qiao must have doubts after he went to play last time. Fortunately, Guo Qiao did not show any special dislike. He was not in a hurry to confess his love to Guo Qiao.He wanted to boil the frog in warm water, and slowly let Guo Qiao accept himself and this fact.

Since Guo Qiao came back that time, he started to keep a distance from Cao Jun. When eating at noon, he no longer always sat alone with Cao Jun. Sometimes he would bring the secretary or the vice president, and sometimes he would sit with his colleagues in the working group. Eating, talking about work while eating.

How keen Cao Jun is, he noticed it right away. He felt a little lost, but he knew that this matter could not be forced. If it was urgent, the rabbit would still bite. The overlord bows hard?That would be death.

What worried Cao Jun the most happened, Guo Qiao was going to have a girlfriend.In the working group, there is a little girl transferred from the customer service department. She is petite and exquisite, and has a cheerful personality. In particular, she and Guo Qiao are half fellows. This girl is from Chongqing. The two of them have common topics and often talk about their hometown together. Words, chatting very lively.Cao Jun couldn't stop eating it, but there was nothing he could do about it. Who said that she was a girl and had an advantage in gender? Could it be that he fired her.

The opening time of the exhibition is getting closer and closer, and Guo Qiao is getting more and more busy, and there is almost no time to go back to make dinner.Cao Jun eats the same takeaway, no matter how many places he changes, he always feels the same taste - dull and tasteless.He missed the days when his stomach was bleeding, Guo Qiao changed his ways to make delicious food for himself every day, and ate a light diet according to his own taste.The two discussed what they wanted to eat, and then went to the market to buy vegetables and cook together. It felt like a young couple living together. Although there were bickering, it was also sweet.Unlike now, Guo Qiao doesn't care about his life at all.

That night when Guo Qiao came back from overtime work, he saw Cao Jun lying on the sofa and falling asleep with potatoes in his arms, and there were uneaten meals on the coffee table.When Tudou saw Guo Qiao came back, he jumped off Cao Jun's stomach, went to Guo Qiao's feet and rubbed vigorously, screaming as he rubbed. It hadn't eaten fish for a long time, and no one had combed it for a long time.

Guo Qiao picked up Tudou guiltily, and sat down on the sofa. Cao Jun said that he would live at home for free, as long as he took care of him and his cat, but he didn't do it at all.Cao Jun opened his eyes and saw Guo Qiao: "Are you back?" His voice was hoarse and gentle, like a husband waiting for his wife to come home.

Guo Qiao looked at the boxed lunch on the table and said, "Why didn't you eat?"

Cao Jun reached out and touched his stomach: "I feel a little uncomfortable in my stomach."

Guo Qiao felt more and more guilty: "Have you taken your medicine? You have a bad stomach, so don't order such a spicy dish."

Cao Jun said: "The food at other houses is not good and tasteless. It's been a long time since I ate your food. Do you have to work overtime tomorrow night?"

Guo Qiao swallowed, not knowing how to answer.Tomorrow is Friday, and the Chongqing girl asked him to go to the movies.

During this period, Guo Qiao and the Chongqing girl got closer, and they chatted very well. The Chongqing girl had been waiting for Guo Qiao to take the initiative to invite her, but Guo Qiao never moved, so the girl had to take the initiative.In fact, Guo Qiao didn't have the money to invite people to eat and go out to play. Although he was an assistant to the boss and the leader of the working group, he was just superficial.All the cash on him does not exceed 100 yuan, and this money is still drawn from the living expenses provided by Cao Jun. Every time he takes a sum of money, he will record it in the account and prepare to pay it back when he is paid in the future. Don't take it seriously.A girl from Chongqing invited him to watch a movie, and he was going to borrow another 200 yuan from his living expenses.

Seeing that he was silent, Cao Jun said softly, "Do you still have to work overtime?"

Guo Qiao hummed.

Cao Jun said: "In fact, some work can be taken back to do."

Guo Qiao took a deep breath: "No, I have to deal with it with my colleagues, and I can't get it back. How about I go make you some soup now, and you can eat it tomorrow night." Guo Qiao went to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and it was empty , Nothing, he said, "It's very late now, and the supermarket is probably closed. I'll get up early tomorrow morning, go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables and come back, and prepare them early in the morning."

Cao Jun shook his head: "Forget it, I'll order takeaway, anyway, I did the same when you weren't here before."

Hearing what he said, Guo Qiao felt a little uncomfortable for some reason. He felt sore and swollen. He turned to look at Cao Jun: "I'm sorry, I won't work overtime on Saturdays. I'll make delicious food for you at home."

Cao Jun raised the corners of his mouth, with an expectant smile on his face: "Really? That's great."

Looking at his smiling face, Guo Qiao's heart skipped a beat. This smile is too deceptive.

After getting off work the next afternoon, Guo Qiao wanted to wait for Cao Jun to leave before leaving, but Cao Jun never left. Seeing that the time for the movie screening was getting closer, Cao Jun still hadn't left.The Chongqing girl urged her several times, and Guo Qiao was also restless. He had agreed to stay at the company to work overtime. If he left before Cao Jun, wouldn't it be tantamount to lying?

Just when he was restless, Cao Jun finally came out of his office. When he left, he glanced at Guo Qiao in the next office and said hello: "I'm going back first. Remember to eat and come back early."

Guo Qiao felt relieved: "Okay." After finishing speaking, he felt a little guilty.

Five minutes after Cao Jun left, Guo Qiao also left the office with the Chongqing girl.The two rushed all the way to the subway station to catch the subway. Cao Jun's car stopped at the intersection, looked at Guo Qiao and the girl, and heaved a long sigh.

Because time was tight and there was no time to eat, Guo Qiao first went to KFC to buy hamburgers and chicken drumsticks, and had dinner with Chongqing girls, went to the cinema to exchange tickets, and bought Coke and popcorn. He said slightly apologetically, "I'm sorry, I'm delayed by something, and I don't have time to eat, so I'll treat you to dinner next time."

When the girl from Chongqing heard that there will be another time, all the dissatisfaction in her heart disappeared, and she smiled with crooked eyes: "Okay."

Entering the screening hall, the movie was "Dear", a rather heavy story about child abduction. It was originally aimed at the name and the leading role. , but it is not suitable for two men and women who are still in an ambiguous relationship.

Because of insufficient preparation, Guo Qiao didn't prepare tissues, so when he heard the girl next to him sobbing, he didn't seize the opportunity to pass the tissues in time.

After leaving the screening hall, the Chongqing girl was still in a low mood and kept silent. Guo Qiao smiled dryly: "The movie is not bad, the acting is very good."

The Chongqing girl said, "Yes."

Guo Qiao looked up at the crowd around him, and suddenly he was stunned. There was a familiar figure in a black suit in front of him, who seemed to be Cao Jun. Guo Qiao was getting older. Cao Jun went to watch a movie?Did he know that he was going to watch a movie, so he followed?Or did it happen by accident?

The girl from Chongqing had come to her senses, she didn't notice Cao Jun, she just asked, "Where shall we go for a stroll?"

Guo Qiao said absently, "Okay."

As soon as Guo Qiao thought that Cao Jun would also watch the movie, he would naturally be out of shape for the following activities, and felt very uneasy. He felt that he had been caught, and he didn't know how to explain it to Cao Jun.He shouldn't have seen himself, right?Guo Qiao has been struggling with this problem for a long time. The girl from Chongqing called him several times before he came back to his senses: "Ah? What?"

The girl from Chongqing said, "Let me ask you, does this dress look good?"

Guo Qiao pulled a blunt smile and nodded: "Well, not bad."

"Then I'll try it?"

Guo Qiao nodded: "Go ahead, try it if you like it."

The girl from Chongqing tried on the clothes. This is a cashmere jacket. The clothes are very exquisitely made, and it feels very elegant when worn on her body.The girl looked back at Guo Qiao, and brushed her hair: "Do you think it looks good?"

Guo Qiao nodded: "Not bad."

The girl from Chongqing gritted her teeth: "The clothes are so expensive, and the discount will cost [-] yuan."

Guo Qiao said, "It's a bit expensive."

The girl said regretfully: "Oh, it's too expensive, forget it." She didn't really have to buy it, but she hoped that Guo Qiao would say "buy it, I'll give it to you", but Guo Qiao didn't say that, so she had to be disappointed put down the clothes.

After leaving the clothing store, they entered another jewelry store. The Chongqing girl was picking out the silk scarves on the shelf and asked Guo Qiao, "Which one looks better, this or that?"

Guo Qiao took a look and said, "Anything is fine, as long as you like it."

The Chongqing girl glanced at Guo Qiao, then turned to look at the headgear, and didn't say anything about buying a silk scarf.This is a relatively high-end boutique store. The most common cards in it cost tens of hundreds of dollars, and the better-looking ones cost hundreds of dollars. Guo Qiao glanced at the price and found that he couldn't afford it. Originally, there were only more than 200 yuan, but I spent tens of dollars on the fast food and popcorn just now, and there are more than 100 yuan left.

The Chongqing girl picked for a long time, and found that Guo Qiao didn't even intend to give her a gift, so she turned around and left the shop.I ran into a little girl holding flowers and selling flowers: "Brother, buy a flower for your girlfriend."

The Chongqing girl looked at Guo Qiao with an expectant smile on her face.Guo Qiao looked at the fiery red rose, hesitated for a moment, and still didn't buy it.The Chongqing girl showed disappointment on her face.Guo Qiao also couldn't explain why he didn't want to buy flowers. Maybe a flower could fix the girl next to him and let her be his girlfriend, but apart from this flower, he couldn't afford anything for the time being, even a hairpin. They can't afford to give them away, let alone clothes and shoes, let alone houses and cars. The reality is so cruel. For the poor, love is a luxury.

The smile on the Chongqing girl's face had disappeared, and she said, "Forget it, it's getting late, I'm going back."

Guo Qiao said apologetically, "I'll see you off."

The girl from Chongqing said: "No need, there is a bus here that goes directly to my downstairs, it's very safe. Thank you for watching a movie with me today, goodbye."

Guo Qiao said: "It should be me thanking you, next time I will invite you to watch a movie."

The Chongqing girl smiled: "Let's talk about it later, goodbye!"

Guo Qiao watched the Chongqing girls get on the bus, and leaned against the pillars of the bus platform, feeling powerless all over his body.When the bus he was waiting for came, he got on the bus, grabbed the ring, and looked at the bustling streets and the bustling crowds, the neon lights flashing, everything was so bustling, but it had nothing to do with him.Poor people are not qualified to talk about love!No capital to enjoy life!

When Guo Qiao came home, he saw Cao Jun in his pajamas sitting on the sofa watching TV, with Tudou curled up next to his legs. The picture was very harmonious. It was a surprise that the two could get along harmoniously. "I'm back, have you eaten yet?"

Cao Jun looked at Guo Qiao and said, "Eat."

"What to eat?"

Cao Jun said: "Drink the porridge."

Guo Qiao put on his slippers, walked to the sofa and sat down, leaning back, feeling exhausted.Cao Jun said, "Are you tired?"

Guo Qiao sighed and said, "We are physically and mentally exhausted."

Cao Jun's heart skipped a beat, going on a date today is not going well?He was overjoyed: "Recently, I've been too busy at work, so take a good rest on the weekend."

Guo Qiao groaned and lay still.Potato jumped over Cao Jun, climbed onto Guo Qiao's lap, rubbed against him, acted like a baby, Guo Qiao touched the smooth and soft potato, and suddenly said: "If only I were a cat, I just want to get something to eat every day." , Don’t worry about houses, cars, tickets, etc. It’s really tiring to be a human being, and I want too much.”

Cao Jun chuckled. He was willing to keep him as a cat, but he was afraid that he would not want to: "Don't worry, there will be bread and everything."

"I'm going to see the chinchillas." Guo Qiao got up and remembered something, "I haven't bought cat grass for them for a long time, so it's all gone."

Cao Jun said, "I've bought it back, and it's still the original brand."

Guo Qiao looked at Cao Jun and didn't know what to say. He said he would take care of him and Tudou, but now he was helping him take care of Totoro, and he felt more and more regretful: "Do you want to eat supper?"

Cao Jun raised his eyebrows: "Aren't you full?"

Guo Qiao touched his nose: "Well, a little bit." The hamburger he ate at night was indeed not very full.

Cao Jun smiled and said, "Then go ahead and eat together."

Guo Qiao let the chinchilla out for activities, and then went to have a supper. He made a simple three delicacies noodle, and the two sat at the table facing each other to eat.Cao Jun said suddenly: "It's been a long time since we had dinner together, your cooking is still good."

Guo Qiao was stunned for a moment, and said, "I will try not to work overtime at the company in the future, and come back to make dinner."

"Okay." Although Cao Jun didn't smile, he could see that he was in a good mood, like a spring breeze, "Tomorrow I want to go shopping and buy clothes. Are you free? Help me with advice."

Guo Qiao nodded: "Okay."
