seven years later

It was nearly eleven o'clock after Qian Wei finished all the work on hand, and after calling everyone off work, the whole company was suffocatingly empty.

Qian Wei stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling glass and looked down at the city in the night. The darkness was full of light, and the lights were inexplicably feasting.

The night made Qian Wei feel much calmer. Thinking of Gu Ye's phone call, that guy might be throwing pots and bowls and throwing a temper tantrum again. Forget it, adults don't count villains, let's go and see him.

Besides, I really don't seem to have any better place to go besides him.

When Qian Wei arrived at Gu Ye's house, the lights were on, but no one was there. He thought he had gone out, but when he went to the bathroom to wash his hands, he found that Gu Ye was sleeping in the bathtub.

Normally, Qian Wei would have pounced on someone naked to enjoy him, who made him tempt him so much.But today, Qian Wei saw Gu Ye's white body lined up under the clear and shallow water, and suddenly remembered that his mother said with a smile that day, lying in the bath, taking sleeping pills, and then cutting his wrists to commit suicide.

Qian Wei's heart was clenched tightly, he knelt down beside the bathtub, gently shook Gu Ye's shoulder, his hand touched the water in the bathtub, it was already warm and cold.

Qian Wei didn't dare to say what he was afraid of. He shook Gu Ye's shoulder and whispered Gu Ye's name.

Gu Ye finally woke up and whispered, "Qi Hui, I'll sleep again."

Although the name "Qi Hui" came out of Gu Ye's mouth, which made him very uncomfortable, but seeing that Gu Ye was fine, Qian Wei let out a long sigh of relief, and laughed at himself: I was nervous about something, it was nothing.

Qian Wei fished Gu Ye out of the water, and Gu Ye finally woke up, squinting his eyes, staring at Qian Wei's face for a long time, before saying, "Qian Wei?"

Qian Wei patted Gu Yeqiao's butt, feeling a little nostalgic for the ecstasy, but neither of them had any interest in exercising at midnight today.Qian Wei asked Gu Ye to stand up, squatted down, and wiped his body clean himself.

Gu Ye didn't know if he was sleepy or something, he suddenly said cheerfully: "Hey, are you serving yourself?" He also rubbed Qian Wei's unruly hair, pretending to be flattered.

Qian Wei slapped Gu Ye's paw off, and said fiercely, "Don't move around."

Gu Ye suddenly grabbed Qian Wei's hand, stared at the man's eyes, and said seriously:

"I know you won't leave me."

Qian Wei was stunned, but Gu Ye was already lying on his body and fell asleep again.

This awkward guy, if he was normal, he probably wouldn't be able to say such soft words.Is this just pretending to be confused, or talking to me?

Qian Wei obviously complicated Gu Ye's thinking again, Gu Ye was just too tired.

Qian Wei picked him up, put him in the bedroom, went to wash himself, and lay down next to Gu Ye when he came back.

Years of habits, even in a deep sleep, I can catch a movement of the people around me.As soon as Qian Wei lay down, Gu Ye seemed to feel it. He turned over and rubbed against Qian Wei's side, and pressed his forehead against Qian Wei's shoulder twice.

It's still the warmest night like this, Qian Wei really doesn't want to lose.

When Qian Wei woke up, Gu Ye was still soundly asleep. He went downstairs to buy soy milk and fried dough sticks. He was not used to these, but Gu Ye liked it.Put it down on the table for him and go to work by yourself, go to the company and have breakfast.

Gu Ye was woken up by urination. He was about to run to the bathroom with bare feet, but Mimi Dengdengzhong instinctively reminded himself that he would be scolded by Qian Wei if he went to the bathroom without slippers, so Gu Ye bowed his waist and covered his suffocated body. The little ancestor turned back, put on his slippers and rushed to the bathroom.

The excretion was clean, and the little bird was shaking with satisfaction, ready to go back to sleep, when there was a knock on the door, Gu Ye rubbed his eyes, woke up a bit, and raised his voice and asked, "Who is it?"

"Qi Hui."

Gu Ye went to open the door, Qi Hui was standing outside the door carrying a breakfast bag, Qi Hui looked at Gu Ye and said:

"What time are you still awake?"

Gu Ye had no sense of shame, stretched his waist and said:

"You pack your breakfast, and I'll change clothes."

Qi Hui was helpless, he was really used to being served.

Qi Hui entered the restaurant, and suddenly saw fried dough sticks and soy milk on the table. Qi Hui frowned, walked to the door of Gu Ye's bedroom, and asked, "Qian Wei is back?"

Gu Ye slept soundly last night and had no memory of Qian Wei's return at all, so at this moment, he turned his head and said viciously: "Don't mention that white-eyed wolf to me! He still has the face to come back!"

Qi Hui understood, didn't say much, turned around and went back to the kitchen, and threw the soy milk fritters on the table into the trash can, anyway, it was already cold, so what to do with it.

Qi Hui put the soy milk he brought on the table. Gu Ye was delighted to see the steaming soy milk, grabbed the deep-fried dough sticks and took a big bite, chewing and saying, "Where did you buy the deep-fried dough sticks? They are so crispy... um, It’s much tastier than what Qian Wei bought.”

Qi Hui was also drinking soy milk, and said lightly, "It's just as long as you like it."

"By the way, why did you come here today? Your girlfriend isn't angry. She didn't accompany her early in the morning."

"It's okay, she happens to have a job too."

"my brother……"

"Well, don't worry, I have asked someone to inquire, and nothing will happen."

Gu Ye felt relieved when he heard Qi Hui say that, Qi Hui still had some tricks, otherwise he wouldn't be able to sit in that position at a young age, it would be better to have a strong buddy, he would be more useful at critical times.

Gu Ye finished his breakfast contentedly, stood on the balcony to bask in the sun, and stretched his waist. After Qi Hui cleaned up the kitchen, seeing Gu Ye warmed by the sun, he couldn't help but smile too.

How did that person always maintain simplicity and cleanliness?

Qi Hui stood behind Gu Ye and said:

"Is it time for you to find a job? Are you really planning to be unemployed after graduation? Or... continue to let money support you?"

Gu Ye turned his face and pursed his lips. As soon as Qi Hui saw this action, he knew that this kid was depressed again, but it was also the effect he wanted. Gu Ye asked:

"Even you think Qian Wei is taking care of me?"

Qi Hui smiled and said, "Isn't this obvious?"

Gu Ye was a little sad, sighed slightly, and said to Qi Hui, or to himself seriously:

"I never felt that Qian Wei was taking care of me. I... just thought that we...we like each other, shouldn't being together be a matter of course?"

Qi Hui leaned on the balcony with arms folded, and asked:

"But in my opinion, Qian Wei is just providing you with food and clothing. Are you sure he likes you too?"

A trace of bewilderment flashed across Gu Ye's eyes, but he didn't answer.

Qi Hui patted Gu Ye's shoulder for fear, and said cheeringly:

"Okay, a big man loves you back, it's too sour, hurry up and find a job, lest you really become innocent after drawing a clear line with Qian Wei, don't beg me again."

Gu Ye nodded and entered the room with a wooden face.

Qi Hui said behind him:

"Shall I introduce you to a job?"

"Need not."

Gu Ye said lightly.
