double duty

"...Brother," Gu Zhi's lips moved, and the words rolled around his lips several times, "...Are you serious?"

Shang Yizhou narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "Do I look like I'm joking?"

More than just resemblance, Gu Zhi couldn't hear a trace of seriousness in Shang Yizhou's voice, as if this matter was irrelevant, and it could be done by touching the upper lip and the lower lip.

What he dreamed of, in the eyes of Shang Yizhou, was nothing more than a fluffy sentence.

He never had any hope for Shang Yizhou before, so as long as Shang Yizhou was by his side, he was satisfied.

But once a person has tasted the sweetness, his desire will be infinitely enlarged, he will keep wanting more, and even possessiveness, jealousy, these emotions he does not deserve to have.

Thoughts of comparing with Xu Yuqiu kept popping up in his mind, what if it was Xu Yuqiu?

When this idea comes together, it is like a wildfire that is out of control until it burns the vegetation and forests to ashes.

"Brother," Gu Zhi lowered his eyes, and pulled the corners of his lips stiffly, "If Xu Yuqiu said such a thing, would you have the same reaction?"

This casual and indifferent attitude.

Shang Yizhou hesitated slightly, and then stretched out his hand to rub Gu Zhi's earlobe, "It's because of my wrong attitude, I apologize to you."

He obviously guessed what Gu Zhi was thinking.

Gu Zhi tilted his head slightly away, pursed his lips and said indifferently: "Brother, if it was Xiao Qiu, or Tang Shuangsheng, would you have the same reaction?"

Shang Yizhou frowned invisibly, if Gu Zhi took a look, he would know that he was getting impatient.

But Gu Zhi didn't look at it, and was still stubbornly waiting for an answer.

"Some things, I'll only explain once." Shang Yizhou suppressed his smile, and his gentle appearance disappeared in an instant.

He withdrew his hand and stepped on the accelerator, and the wind howled instantly. He stared straight ahead indifferently, "Tang Shuangsheng is a friend's younger brother. He entrusted me to take care of him. My relationship with him is nothing more than that."

Shang Yizhou didn't wait for Gu Zhi to reply, pointed the steering wheel with his fingertips, and continued: "As for Xiao Qiu, you shouldn't be jealous of him."

"You have always been sensible, don't let me down."

Do not let me down.

This simple and straightforward sentence was like a timely rain, and it wiped out Gu Zhi's mountain fire, not even letting off a spark, leaving the land full of desolation.

"I was wrong..." Gu Zhi suppressed all his attachments, and retracted himself into the iron shell.

He turned to the window of the car, sporadic lights flashed by, he didn't dare to look at Shang Yizhen more, he couldn't bear that disappointment.

Gu Zhi closed his eyes, despair and sadness overflowed from the bottom of his heart, it was not the first time he felt the indelible gap between him and Shang Yizhou, but this time, Shang Yizhou's attitude told him sincerely, Shang Yizhou may like him, but this kind of liking is not worth mentioning.

In Shang Yizhou's heart, he will always be a dispensable substitute.

On the night of going back, Gu Zhi developed a high fever. If Xu's wife hadn't been able to contact him, no one would have known if he had a fever.

Sent to the hospital, hung up the water for an hour, only slightly better.

"What time is it...?" Gu Zhi's throat was smoking, and every word he said seemed to be scratching his throat with a frizzy wooden ruler.

Xu's wife held a cup of hot water, "Brother Gu, it's eleven o'clock."

Gu Zhi's head was still heavy, he stood up for a long time, the needle holes on the back of his hand sizzled blood, Xu's wife quickly put down the water glass, and trotted over to help him up.

Gu Zhi shook his head, stabilized his body and pushed Xu's wife away, picked up the coat draped over the chair, "Go back to the set."

Xu's wife was anxious, "Brother Gu, how are you shooting in this situation?"

Gu Zhi ignored his obstruction, and walked out with his weak body, "I can."

"No, really no," Xu's wife couldn't persuade Gu Zhi, anxious like ants on a hot pot, so she had to follow Gu Zhi back step by step.

Unexpectedly, as soon as he walked to the entrance of the hospital, a bunch of long guns and short cannons appeared from there, hitting Gu Zhi's face, Xu's wife was weak and pushed to the edge, unable to squeeze in even if she wanted to.

Yuji asked questions again and again, Gu Zhi only heard ringing in his ears, and after being surrounded for more than 5 minutes, he finally heard what these Yuji were asking.

"Last night, a passer-by photographed you having a late-night date with Shang Yingdi, are you two together?"

The question is extremely straightforward.

If it was normal Gu Zhi would still have the strength to deal with them, but now Gu Zhi is so headache that he is about to explode, he has no time to pay attention to it.

"Is it a default for you not to speak?"

"Shang Actor is indeed gay!"

"How long have you been together?"

Gu Zhi waved them away feebly, "No...none of them..."

Passers-by gathered around to watch, Gu Zhi felt that he was going to be out of breath, but fortunately, the hospital security saw that the situation was not right, rushed over to disperse Yu Ji, Xu's wife took the opportunity and brought Gu Zhi back to the ward.

Gu Zhi was out of breath, and took a long time to recover. He asked Xu's wife for the mobile phone, but the battery was out and the phone was turned off.

[Sister Lian: Answer the phone! 】

[Sister Lian: Quickly pick up! 】

Xu's wife caught it out of the corner of her eye, and quickly screamed, "I turned on mute...forgot to turn it off..."

He only cared about Gu Zhi, so he had time to look at his phone.

Gu Zhi pursed his lips silently, and sent a message to Lian Lian.

[Xu's wife: I'm Gu Zhi, I'm fine. 】

After he finished posting the message, he changed hands and clicked on Weibo. There was no need to click on the trending search. The marketing account that Xu's wife followed, and passersby po owners were almost all using the same topic.

#商影帝恋情Exposure# There is a picture below.

It's a photo of him and Shang Yizhen sitting together in the back carriage on the mountainside, it's very clear, and his expression can be seen clearly.

Gu Zhi's brain almost stopped working. Xu's wife next to him had just charged Gu Zhi's cell phone, turned her head to look over, and naturally saw it, her eyes widened in disbelief.

"Sister Lian... called in..."

Gu Zhi took a few breaths, then answered the phone in a daze.

"There you are!" The eagerness and nervousness was nothing like the usual closeness.

Gu Zhi: "Hospital."

Lian Yuan panicked, "What's wrong with you?"

"I have a fever, it's nothing serious." Gu Zhi asked, "What's the hot search?"

"I also want to know what's going on." Xu Shi finally got in touch with the person, and his voice calmed down a lot, "Did you talk about falling in love with Shang Yingdi?"

"Ah."

"Why are you hiding such a big matter from me?"

If she knew earlier, she wouldn't be so passive.

Gu Zhi rolled his eyelids, noncommittal, "Is there a way to remove the hot search?"

Lianyuan almost rolled his eyes at the other end: "...what do you think?"

The moment Gu Zhi said it, he knew what an idiotic question he had said.

It is impossible for Shang Yizhou's studio not to know that it can make such a big fuss.

The first one was posted at four o'clock in the morning, but the matter is still fermenting. There are only two possibilities.

"I'll handle it myself, Sister Lian, I'll hang up first."

"How do you—"

Before Lian Lian finished speaking, Gu Zhi hung up.

Xu's wife obviously hasn't digested it yet, "Brother Gu..."

Gu Zhi rubbed between his brows feebly, "Go out first, I want to be alone for a while."

Xu's wife was full of question marks, but now was definitely not the time to ask. He picked up his mobile phone and left the ward without turning his head.
