bullets and roses

When getting out of the car, Gu Zhubai parked the Land Rover on the side of the road, holding the steering wheel with one hand, so hard that the veins on the back of his hand popped.

He turned his head sideways to look at Luo Muxiao, with a bit of reluctance unavoidably in his eyes.

It was the first time Luo Muxiao was looked at by him with this kind of eyes, but his subconscious first reaction was to be frightened——he coughed lightly twice, and said: "Then... I'll go first."

"Yeah." Gu Zhubai looked at him, "Good night."

Luo Muxiao opened the door, and when he got out of the car, he suddenly thought of something and asked: "Can you drive? Do you need a driver to pick you up?"

"Yes." Gu Zhubai said, "Don't worry."

"But your leg..." Luo Muxiao inevitably moved his gaze down, and put it on his leg.

When Gu Zhubai's legs could stand up, Luo Muxiao had already fallen out with him, so he didn't know the real situation of the other party at all.

Maybe it was because the night was so beautiful tonight, which made him inexplicably ask.

Forget it, just treat it as a good deed.Anyway, Gu Zhubai also sent him home, it is normal to care about him.

Gu Zhubai's eyes moved slightly, and he said: "There is nothing unusual recently. After the operation, I have been fine."

Luo Muxiao nodded: "That's good, then I'll go in."

Gu Zhubai had no choice but to say goodbye.

It's just that Luo Muxiao felt that there was a scorching gaze staring at him from behind him all the time until he entered the room. He subconsciously touched his chest, and then comforted himself. It was no longer Li Yuanan's heart beating there. Nothing to worry about.

But Luo Muxiao still looked back.

Gu Zhubai was still standing by the car, watching him without moving.

Luo Muxiao locked the door, then turned off the lights and entered the inner room.

Perhaps Luo Muxiao gave Gu Zhubai the rare peace that night, which actually made Gu Zhubai become more aggressive.

Before, he always asked the driver to drive a Land Rover and park it far away.But now the person who always comes here has become Gu Zhubai, and he even occasionally comes to the store to look at paintings, buy paintings and so on.

Sometimes Luo Muxiao didn't bother to talk to him, and he didn't get angry, he just kept going around the store, and when Luo Muxiao couldn't stand it, he drove him away.

Gu Zhubai was also not persistent, he apologized and turned to go out, but he still wouldn't leave, he just stood beside the Land Rover and looked at him.

Sometimes one stop is all day long.

One night, Luo Muxiao saw Gu Zhubai's assistant help him back to the car, and sprayed something on his legs. He guessed that the other party's old problem was repeated.

Luo Muxiao walked back and forth in the store several times, but couldn't hold back, and went out to the Land Rover.

When Gu Zhubai saw him coming, he couldn't care less about his legs, so he immediately stood up and called his name: "Luoluo..."

Luo Muxiao brought the bottle of spray over, it really relieved the pain, his brows were slightly frowned, and he asked him not at all softhearted: "Gu Zhubai, what are you doing?"

Gu Zhubai said: "...it's nothing." The light on his face faded a bit.

Luo Muxiao said: "You stand in the way here, it will greatly affect the business of our store."

Gu Zhubai lowered his eyes to block the aggrieved and even disheartened eyes, he pursed his lips, and said: "Understood, I will stay away from it later."

Luo Muxiao said with a headache: "I'm not telling you to stay away - I don't understand why you are guarding here? Is it possible that you still plan to buy this studio? What's so good about this studio every day, I really want to No way."

"……of course not."

The assistant has already consciously returned to the car and even closed the door.

"Then go back quickly." Luo Muxiao said, "I don't think there is any relationship between the two of us anymore, and you don't have to guard the studio here."

"Who says there's nothing between us?"

"If you're talking about a marriage certificate," Luo Muxiao said, "you should be aware of this legal provision that you will automatically get divorced after three years of separation."

Gu Zhubai's expression instantly became very ugly. He took a step back and leaned against the car, as if trying to relieve the pain, but he didn't speak.

Luo Muxiao was a little soft-hearted again: "The heart has also been changed, and I have nothing to gain from you, so why are you bothering?"

"You really don't understand?" Gu Zhubai looked at him seriously, and there was something in his eyes that was moving out unstoppably.

Luo Muxiao subconsciously shrank his wings: "...I don't know what you're talking about."

"Because I want to be with you."

Gu Zhubai's heart has been suppressed for a long time, because of this sentence, it seems that the floodgates have been pulled open, and the flood is unstoppable and surging, instantly submerging people completely.

He looked at Luo Muxiao deeply, and after he finished speaking, there was a long silence.

Gu Zhubai has always been a person who is not expressive enough, so he can't even say his confession so straightforwardly—but it makes people understand it instantly.

Luo Muxiao only felt that his forehead was hit hard by a heavy hammer, and all his calmness was instantly turned into nothingness.

He blinked in a daze, before saying, "What do you mean?"

"What I mean is," Gu Zhubai said firmly, "I like staying with you very much. It's not because of anyone, just because of you."

"Are you..." Luo Muxiao asked him blankly, "Are you confessing?"

"Yes." Gu Zhubai nodded straightforwardly, "Otherwise?"

"But..." Luo Muxiao subconsciously wanted to refute, but he didn't know what to refute. He was stunned for a while before continuing, "But... how could you like me?"

"Why can't I?" Gu Zhubai was clearly supposed to be on the weak side, but at this moment he inevitably became stronger. He took a step forward, forcing Luo Muxiao to retreat subconsciously.

Luo Muxiao panicked: "But don't you like Li Yuan'an?"

When the mind is blank, the words that come out are often the ones that come out without thinking—but the ones that express the most sincerity.

This is indeed what Luo Muxiao cares about the most.

Whether it was before or now, it is.

He even would rather have his heart replaced because he didn't want to be a stand-in.

What he gave to the other party was a complete self, and naturally he hoped to get the complete other party.

"I and Li Yuanan are just—"

"Xiao Xiao!"

Luo Muxiao's wrist was suddenly grabbed by someone, and he was pulled back fiercely, he was stunned for a moment, and when he recovered, his sight was blocked.

Gong Yuyang stood in front of him and protected him: "is the surname Gu bullying you again?"

With just such a sentence, all of Luo Muxiao's rationality returned.

yes.What is he doing stupid?

Is it possible that Gu Zhubai's specious words will trick him back into being a fool again?

Could he really believe him and expect him to explain something?

Luo Muxiao clenched his hands tightly, pursed his lips and said: "No matter what you want to say, but the relationship between us is over, this is an established fact... Thank you very much that night. But we still don't want to have any any contact."

Gu Zhubai's straight back suddenly went limp as if it had been pulled out suddenly.

Leaning against the car, he looked at Luo Muxiao with heavy eyes: "Luo Luo, don't you want to hear me finish?"

Luo Muxiao turned around and walked towards the studio.

On a summer night, the cool wind blows, wrapping Gu Zhubai's words that I don't know whether they are true or not: "My feelings for him are completely different from yours."

Luo Muxiao just pretended that he didn't hear anything.
