you may never have loved me

Qu Lingxi followed the two staff members to the backstage lounge.

Rather than saying that this is a lounge, it is more like an exquisite small tea party hall.A combination of Chinese-style carved screens and Japanese-style tatami mats, a low mahogany tea table is placed in the middle, and the transparent glass tea cups are filled with mist.

He moved closer, and seemed to be able to see his own blurred reflection behind this small piece of glass.Today he did dress up deliberately to meet Guan Yu.Before coming here, Qu Lingxi rummaged through the closet in the old house for half an hour before choosing this outfit.

He knew from the bottom of his heart that he had no interest in Guan Yu, and he seemed to be doing this just to prove something.

To prove what?He didn't quite know either.

For the sake of politeness, Qu Lingxi nodded to the two staff members to indicate the tatami mat in front of her, blinked and said, "Do I need to take off my shoes?"

The staff laughed for a while when they heard this, and when Qu Lingxi was at a loss, the other party replied politely: "It's up to you, you can take it off, it doesn't matter whether you take it off or not."

Qu Lingxi was a little embarrassed, he didn't have the habit of slippers when meeting strangers, even though this is an idol he admired for a long time, but according to the habit, when sitting on this kind of tatami mat, one must wear slippers.

He was silent for a moment, but still chose to take off the custom-made cowhide shoes that he deliberately chose today in the style of the little prince, and sat cross-legged in accordance with the custom.

The staff bowed and poured him a cup of hot tea.

Qu Lingxi lowered her head and smelled it for a while, she found it very fragrant, and asked thoughtfully, "Is this fruit tea?"

The other party smiled and replied: "You are right, it is indeed fruit tea. The tea is white tea, which is not often available here, and it is specially transported from Anshi."

Qu Lingxi: "That's also very interesting. Mr. Lanka is from country A, and he likes to drink tea. I watched his interview before, and I remember he said that he likes American black coffee the most."

The other party was silent for a while, then suddenly said: "Then do you like it?"

"Fruit tea? I really like it, it's sweet." Qu Lingxi was puzzled for a while, and said, "As for American coffee. I can't say whether I like it or not, but my whole family likes it except me. Maybe I liked it before. Now I'm tired of drinking."

The other party laughed a little when he heard the words, and bowed to him, and then the two of them stepped back consciously, followed by a soft door closing sound.

Finally, in a strange place, only Qu Lingxi was left.

Everything is quiet, lonely and silent.

Qu Lingxi waited for a short while, and finally found something was wrong. He turned his head and stared at the carved screen for a while, and suddenly felt a chill behind his back, and his hair stood on end.

He breathed heavily and glanced at WeChat, but Guan Yu still didn't reply.

Qu Lingxi directly dialed the number, and after a long and boring wait, Guan Yu finally answered.

Before Qu Lingxi could speak, Guan Yu hurriedly apologized to him: "I'm really sorry, Xi. The veterinarian said that my puppet cat's illness is urgent, and it's not out of danger yet, and it needs to be taken care of by someone who is familiar with it. I may not be able to accompany you in this photography exhibition. I have the ID of the electronic invitation letter, and you can just report the number to the staff when the time comes."

Qu Lingxi didn't say a word, she lightly touched the glass cup with her slightly cool fingertips so that she could see the somewhat over-delicate glazed cup.

Hearing this, he frowned slightly.

Guan Yu kept apologizing, and Qu Lingxi could feel the anxiety and helplessness from him, and even the wailing from the pets on the side of the electric current, which was in stark contrast to the silence in front of him.

Guan Yu thought for a while and said, "Is your sister free? Why don't you ask her to accompany you? Or find a friend yourself? I'll send you the code later."

"Wait." Qu Lingxi finally found the source of the error in a pile of messy threads, "You, didn't you send the invitation letter to my house yesterday?"

Guan Yu was silent for a moment, just about to speak.

Suddenly hearing the sound of a doorknob being turned away, Qu Lingxi's heart was lifted in an instant. He unconsciously lowered his head and looked in the direction of the sound.

He saw a pair of leather shoes first, and then the straight and slender legs pressed on the suit pants.

According to Qu Lingxi's familiarity with this person, he can confirm who this person is without even looking up.Guan Yu explained suspiciously: "Sent to your house? No. I still have the two invitation letters."

Gu Shen walked to Qu Lingxi very calmly.

Qu Lingxi's hand holding the phone was shaking.He saw Gu Shen take off his shoes unhurriedly, and then sat calmly across from him, all his actions were neither hasty nor impatient, very elegant and dignified.

Gu Shen seemed to have forgotten that the person sitting across from him was not some long-time friend, but his ex-boyfriend who broke up with him.

Qu Lingxi didn't reply for a long time, Guan Yu was a little anxious, and called his name several times: "What's wrong with you?"

"It's nothing." Qu Lingxi held the phone and said, "I still have something to do here, so I have to hang up first. How is your puppet doing? Report to me later that it's safe."

Guan Yu was worried about the condition of his little puppet. Hearing what Qu Lingxi said, he only felt the other party's understanding. After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the two ended the call.

Gu Shen took two sips of fruit tea, then frowned.

There was no concealment of disgust in his words, and he said, "It's too sweet."

Qu Lingxi looked at him speechlessly and said to himself, "Sweet or not, isn't it all because you prepared it? You have to complain about it yourself."

"It's not my preference." Gu Shen raised his eyebrows and said, "But I thought you would like it, so I prepared it."

Seeing now, there is nothing to understand.

Qu Lingxi stretched her waist, just now he was still sitting upright.Since Gu Shen was facing him, he didn't bother to put on those fake poses. He was already a little tired, so he just half-lyed on the tatami mat and kicked his cramping legs casually.

He supported his chin with his elbows, and when his eyelids were half down, his thick eyelashes were like two small fans. He didn't even look at his ex-boyfriend, and said directly, "You sent that invitation letter yesterday?"

Gu Shen didn't quibble, and said concisely, "Yes."

This is not the key, the key is the bouquet of flowers.

Qu Ling was puzzled and said: "You also sent the rice fruit flower?"

Gu Shen calmly admitted: "Well, it's me."

Qu Lingxi was a little surprised.He and his ex-boyfriend have only been in love for less than a month, and it is not entirely true that they know each other well.

He thought he loved Gu Shen, but if he asked him about Gu Shen's favorite flowers, plants, idols, and architectural styles, he couldn't answer them all.

If the things Guan Yu gave could fit his liking, Qu Lingxi felt it was normal, it was not intentional, but deep down in Qu Lingxi's heart, he believed that Guan Yu was the same kind of person as him.

Qu Lingxi hesitated and said, "What about Lanka?"

Gu Shen raised his eyes, his tone was unhurried, as if he had seen through him: "Are you so anxious to meet your idol?"

"No." Qu Lingxi curled her lips speechlessly, "I remember he didn't come to country C in person this time. I'm afraid this is your trick to trick me."

Gu Shen seemed to be choked by Qu Lingxi for a while, before he explained to him: "I'm not that mean. I'll take you to see him later."

Qu Lingxi: "Is he your friend?"

"Friends?" Gu Shen didn't seem to agree with this sentence, "Well, I've known each other before."

Qu Lingxi understood and nodded.

There are probably very few people like Gu Shen who can consider themselves friends.Su Zhiliu was by his side, so he would admit that they were friends.

Qu Lingxi is different.If someone asked him, what is the relationship between you and Gu Shen now, he might answer friend, be more polite and decent, there is nothing wrong with it.

"What about Guan Yu?" Qu Lingxi suddenly remembered, staring at Gu Shen suspiciously, her tone was not very good, "Do you know him?"

It was too much of a coincidence.Guan Yu invited him to participate in the photo exhibition, but Gu Shen sent him an invitation letter, causing him to misunderstand his attendance.

There is nothing tricky here, so he doesn't believe it.

If Gu Shen's emotions were considered calm and calm before, then when Qu Lingxi mentioned Guan Yu, he couldn't help it: "Who is that person, it's worth making you doubt me?"

Qu Lingxi had a look of "you've been exposed", and snorted lightly, "If you don't know who he is, do you need to be so excited?"

He watched Gu Shen's face getting darker and darker, and he was a little subtly complacent, and said indiscriminately: "Don't you just see that I have a new date after we broke up for a few days, and I feel unhappy and possessive? .I thought I couldn’t guess it. You are like this. You feel the best when you lose it. That...Rob, you are also like this. I didn’t know how to treat others before, which made him heartbroken and pitiful. As a result, you don’t know how to cherish a person until you lose them.”

Qu Lingxi was also suffocated, no one would confide in this bellyful of words, today the Lord was present in person, he didn't pay attention, and confided everything in his heart.

It wasn't until he finished speaking that he realized that something was wrong, raised his eyes to look at Gu Shen, and realized that he had really passed.

I don't know which sentence stepped on Gu Shen's painful feet, and made him tense up like a string.Gu Shen lowered his head slightly, Qu Lingxi couldn't see his face at all, he saw that his fingers were firmly holding the teacup in his hand, with such strength, just by looking at it with the naked eye, those who didn't know would think that he was about to grab the cup. crumb.

Qu Lingxi had never seen Gu Shen's expression before, so she couldn't help shrinking back twice.

Only then did Gu Shen raise his eyelids, and when Qu Lingxi was not paying attention, he firmly grasped his wrist, his eyes followed him stubbornly, and said through gritted teeth, "Are you afraid of me?"

Of course Qu Lingxi was afraid of him, but at this moment she didn't dare to say it, so she could only retort: ​​"What am I afraid of you? I'm not afraid of you."

That's what he said, but his shrunken shoulders and tense tone completely betrayed him.

Gu Shen stared at him closely for a while, staring at Qu Lingxi until his scalp became numb.At this time, the air was frozen, and Qu Lingxi seemed to be back on the plateau and snow-capped mountains in Liangcheng, lacking oxygen and having difficulty breathing.

The person who rescued him back then was now pressing on him step by step, making him suffocate.

As soon as Gu Shen raised his hand, Qu Lingxi even thought that he was going to hit her, and subconsciously closed her eyes and clenched her teeth.

In the darkness, he suddenly heard a sigh.

This sigh is wrapped in heavy affection, extremely pitiful and helpless.

Qu Lingxi fell into a familiar embrace and smelled a familiar smell, accompanied by the familiar smell of tobacco.He couldn't smell it wrong, it was his favorite brand of tobacco.

Gu Shen hugged him, but his hands were shaking.

"Don't be afraid of me." Gu Shen said in a trembling voice, stroking Qu Lingxi's hair, "Don't be afraid of me...you are fine, but don't be afraid of me."
