bullets and roses

Gu Zhubai and Luo Muxiao were together, never needing any effort.

From childhood to adulthood, he has been educated—no matter what he needs, he must put in a hundred thousand times of effort, so he always cherishes what he has already obtained, and spends more effort to get it. Maintain it so that it can continue to exist in its own world.

But Luo Muxiao is different, he is the only variable in his life.

He doesn't need to expend any effort, he gets him easily, not only does he not need to spend time and energy to maintain, he can even throw all his bad temper on the other party, he can even use him, he can ruthlessly hurt him.

So when he realized that he had lost him, he suddenly became overwhelmed.

He suddenly discovered that Luo Muxiao could be so ruthless when he became ruthless, he abandoned everything in the past, and would rather give up his own life to stay away from him.

He could have used countless methods to trap him and trap him—if it was before, of course he could.

But now he dare not.

Probably because of some concerns and worries, I was tied up and dared not do many things.

All he can do is wait.

Waiting day after day.

The glass door was pulled open, and the wind chimes hanging on the door fluttered gently due to the faint sound of the wind, making a pleasant sound. At eight o'clock, Luo Muxiao appeared at the door on time.

The assistant who bought the coffee handed it to Gu Zhubai: "Mr. Gu, there is a meeting this afternoon, are you sure you don't want to go back and take a rest?"

Gu Zhubai took a sip of coffee, his tired and numb body relaxed a little, he raised his eyes, stared in Luo Muxiao's direction without blinking, and asked, "What time is the meeting?"

"Uh..." the assistant glanced at the schedule, "It's two o'clock."

"We leave at one o'clock."

Luo Muxiao who came out took down the wind chime at the door and replaced it with a new one, staring at it for a while before meeting his gaze.

Then he moved away quickly, as if there was no such person here.

Luo Muxiao felt that Gu Zhubai's bitter trick was a bit clumsy, he didn't feel distressed, he just felt that he stayed here all day and was in the way.

But he really didn't want to have too much contact with Gu Zhubai, so he could only pretend that he couldn't see anything.

The end of August is Gong Yuyang's birthday, and Luo Muxiao took the time to make a wooden tool—a small wooden guitar. His technique is very rubbish, so the wooden guitar doesn't look delicate at all, but this does not prevent Gong Yuyang from liking it. he.

In the evening, Gong Yuyang insisted that Luo Muxiao accompany him back to dinner.

Luo Muxiao was a little embarrassed: "But that's your family dinner, it's not good for me to go...After all, my identity..."

"What's wrong with your identity?" Gong Yuyang rubbed the acoustic guitar in his hand and said, "You are my best buddy, why can't you go home for a meal?"

"but……"

"It's not the first time you've been to my house." Gong Yuyang sighed and said, "Don't be inked, didn't you like to go to my house before, why are you getting more and more hypocritical now?"

Luo Muxiao was agitated by him, and kicked him lightly: "Just go."

Luo Muxiao closed the door and got into the car. Before the car drove out of the alley, Luo Muxiao looked at the place where the Land Rover was parked. Gu Zhubai probably had something to do, so he wasn't there.

"What are you looking at?" Gong Yuyang asked him.

"It's nothing." Luo Muxiao withdrew his gaze, his face was calm, but his index finger was gently picking at the seat.

Gong Yuyang was silent for a moment before asking, "Xiao Xiao, are you... still thinking about him?"

Luo Muxiao didn't speak.

"Actually, I can tell," Gong Yuyang sighed, and said, "When you like something, you use all your strength to like it. Otherwise, it's so difficult. So I don't mind, I know you are No matter what kind of person, I like you like this."

Luo Muxiao was silent for a long time before saying: "But this is unfair to you."

"What's fair and unfair?" Gong Yuyang said, "There is no fair thing in this world... Besides, I'm wishful thinking for you, and you didn't promise to be with me, did you?"

"But I shouldn't have too much contact with you," Luo Muxiao pursed his lips, "If I really don't want to be with you, I should never contact you again."

"Come on, didn't you promise me to try with me? Why did you go back and forth?" Gong Yuyang stretched out his hand and rubbed his head, "Don't think so much, what's going on with us I know better than you, so I also accept the consequences, so you don't have to worry so much."

Luo Muxiao still said "I'm sorry".

Gong Yuyang said seriously: "I didn't think you were such a kind person before?"

Luo Muxiao smiled: "After all, I'm only kind to those I care about."

There is nothing wrong with what Luo Muxiao said.If it was someone he didn't care about, he wouldn't bother to care about the other person's life or death.

But, Gong Yuyang is also a good buddy he cares about.

Gong Yuyang parked the car in the garage, grabbed Luo Muxiao's arm and dragged him into his home.Although Gong's mother didn't invite any guests, Luo Muxiao, an uninvited guest, still saw another uninvited guest.

He and Ling Yinzi stared at each other. After a while, Gong Yuyang broke the silence: "Didn't you say you won't invite guests?"

Gong's mother glanced at Luo Muxiao, and said with a half-smile: "How can this be considered a guest? You two will be engaged in a month, and you are both from your own family - but Xiao Xiao, why do you have time to come here today?" ?”

Luo Muxiao cleared his throat and said, "Gong Yuyang called me here."

The expression on Mother Gong's face became stiff for a moment.

"When did I say that I was going to be engaged to her?" Gong Yuyang didn't save any face—probably because he felt embarrassed by Luo Muxiao, so his impatience was visible to the naked eye, "I told you earlier It's impossible for me to marry someone, let alone a woman I don't know at all, it's boring."

Gong's mother's face was also ugly: "Pay attention to your mouth, how do you speak in front of people?"

"Since you've called people to your house, don't blame me for being rude." Gong Yuyang really had a hard fight with Gong's mother, "I have never agreed to this matter from the beginning to the end, and I have told you a lot This time, what does it have to do with me if you don't care about yourself? I have someone I like. "

Gong Yuyang said as he pulled Luo Muxiao's arm forward: "I told you too."

"I'm sorry, Auntie." Although Luo Muxiao was a little embarrassed in his heart, he still cooperated with Gong Yuyang and said, "I'm sorry if I made you feel uncomfortable."

"You—" The expression on Gong's mother's face was almost about to burst.

"okay."

The sudden appearance of a male voice interrupted the stiffness on the field. A man in a suit walked in from the outside, and while handing out his suit, he said, "I called you back to eat, not to disobey your mother."

"Sit down first." Gong Yuzhen nodded to Ling Yinzi after speaking, "I'm sorry, Miss Ling. I'm taking the liberty of asking you to come here."

Gong Yuyang was taken aback, and looked at Gong Yuzhen in disbelief.

He didn't expect that it was Gong Yuzhen who called him back.

With Gong Yuzhen's words, Luo Muxiao felt that the redundant person became himself.

He sat on the long table as if on pins and needles.The table was full of people, and they had a great time chatting, but it was a pity that no one paid attention to him except Gong Yuyang.

After finally finishing the meal, Luo Muxiao heaved a sigh of relief and just about to leave, Gong Yuzhen raised his head and looked at him, and said, "Talk, is it okay?"

Luo Muxiao glanced at Gong Yuyang, who was talking to Gong's mother - he couldn't be saved.

Had to nod in agreement.

Wearing only a thin shirt, Gong Yuzhen stood in the garden and lit a cigarette.

Luo Muxiao was not familiar with Gong Yuyang's elder brother, but he only knew that he was a very powerful man - after the death of Gong's father, he was the one who supported the Gong family and brought the Gong family to a higher level.

Gong Yuyang also rarely mentioned Gong Yuzhen, only saying that he treated him very well and was a good brother.

But tonight Luo Muxiao didn't see that the other party was a good brother.

As soon as Gong Yuzhen took a puff of cigarette, Luo Muxiao coughed, frowned and took a step back, Gong Yuzhen stretched out his hand to grind the cigarette end as if he suddenly remembered something, and said, "Yu Yang seems to say that you Can't smell smoke."

Luo Muxiao admitted generously: "Well, I have asthma."

Gong Yuzhen smiled and said: "You have both asthma and heart disease, but you are indeed very weak and sick."

Luo Muxiao looked at him expressionlessly: "Is Mr. Gong looking for something with me?"

"Yes." Gong Yuzhen sighed, looked at him, and said, "If I just ask you to stay away from Yu Yang, I'm afraid you won't be willing."

Luo Muxiao frowned.

Gong Yuzhen said: "But I still have to say that there will be no results between him and you."

Luo Muxiao frowned lightly.

Gong Yuzhen continued: "He is not the person in your heart, even if you abandon everything to be with you, what you get is not the so-called love - it may just be a safe haven you temporarily found in order to escape from another person, Don't you think this is unfair to him?"

Luo Muxiao's heart twitched, it was undeniable that Gong Yuzhen had mentioned the point that he feared and cared the most.

He promised Gong Yuyang to give it a try, but he knew better than anyone else that he couldn't fall in love with Gong Yuyang.

If they would fall in love, there would have been a possibility between them a long time ago, so why wait until now?

Luo Muxiao lowered his eyes and clenched his hands into fists.

"You are too selfish." Gong Yuzhen made a fatal move, "Have you thought about him?"

"Aren't you selfish?" Luo Muxiao looked up at him, "If you want to get married, why don't you do it yourself, but let him do it?"

"He doesn't need to get married." Gong Yuzhen raised his eyebrows, and said lightly, "However, I just don't want him to be with you. After all, the relationship between you is like a flower in a mirror, and the moon in the water. The short-term happiness will sooner or later would be destroyed, it might as well not start at all."

"He can like anyone else, but that person can't be you."

Luo Muxiao left without saying hello to Gong Yuyang.

He didn't remember until he was out, and sent Gong Yuyang a text message. He wanted to take a taxi back by himself, but this place is also very remote, and there is no car at all.

Luo Muxiao had no choice but to walk down the mountain by himself, but not long after he walked, the Land Rover came.

Gu Zhubai stopped beside him and asked him if he wanted to take a car, Luo Muxiao looked at him for a while, then shook his head and refused.

Gu Zhubai didn't say much, just continued to follow behind him.

Luo Muxiao walked for about two kilometers, and he called his phone many times. Luo Muxiao probably called from Gong Yuyang, but he didn't open it at all. He kept thinking about what Gong Yuzhen's intention was when he said those words What - but after thinking about it, he only felt that Gong Yuzhen was really thinking about Gong Yuyang.

It is true that he is too selfish.

Luo Muxiao was a little tired, so he stopped at the same spot, and Gu Zhubai also stopped beside him.

The car window rolled down, and the assistant said, "Mr. Luo, get in the car, Mr. Gu has a meeting later, so he can't keep following you like this."

"Then you guys go." Luo Muxiao felt unspeakable irritability in his heart, kicked the Land Rover, and hurt his toes again, and the evil fire came out even more, "Gu Zhubai, you are sick Isn’t it, what do you always follow me for? You can go anywhere to have some fun when you have nothing to do, can you stop bothering me?!”

The assistant retreated in embarrassment: "Mr. Luo, Mr. Gu..."

The car door opened, and Gu Zhubai got out of the car from one side.

Luo Muxiao stared at him viciously, a thousand grievances suddenly surged in his heart: "Are you annoying?"

Gu Zhubai didn't speak, just stood in front of him and said, "You guys go first."

"Mr. Gu, then you..."

"I'll be with him."

Luo Muxiao was stunned: "What are you doing?"

"It's only about ten kilometers to the place where you can take a taxi. I'll accompany you." Gu Zhubai said very flatly.

Ten kilometers, ten kilometers!Luo Muxiao subconsciously looked at the opponent's legs at first glance.

Ten kilometers is nothing to an ordinary person—but Gu Zhubai is different.

Luo Muxiao felt that Gu Zhubai was playing tricks again, he might feel that he would soften his heart.Luo Muxiao gritted his teeth, and said: "Whatever you want, follow if you want."

Then strode forward.

In the end, within ten seconds, the Land Rover really galloped past him and left. Luo Muxiao's heart sank, and he wanted to turn around to see if Gu Zhubai was following him, but he didn't want to be at a disadvantage, so he bit his bullet and continued walking.

After a while, Gu Zhubai really caught up, he had some difficulty chasing, Luo Muxiao subconsciously slowed down his pace.

"Are you sick?" Luo Muxiao still scolded, "It's none of your business whether I walk or not, do you think I can treat you a little nicer if you walk with me?"

"I don't mean that." Gu Zhubai remained calm, "I just want to follow you."

Luo Muxiao was speechless for a moment.

After walking another two kilometers, Luo Muxiao was a little tired.

During this period, the two of them didn't say a word, they walked one after the other, but Luo Muxiao's pace became slower and slower - all he could think about was why there was no car yet.

Luo Muxiao couldn't go on any longer, he suddenly stopped, and sat down on the stone by the roadside.

Gu Zhubai also stopped and looked at him condescendingly.

It was only then that Luo Muxiao realized that Gu Zhubai's face was covered with sweat, his expression was already very pale, his body was even trembling slightly - it looked as if he couldn't hold on anymore.

Luo Muxiao finally couldn't hold back and said: "Are you... all right?"

Gu Zhubai shook his head and said, "It's okay."

Luo Muxiao licked his lower lip, and just about to speak, he saw Gu Zhubai's whole body went limp, and he fell back directly in front of him.Luo Muxiao was so frightened that he immediately grabbed the opponent's arm, but was brought down by the strength of the opponent.

Luo Muxiao fell into Gu Zhubai's arms
