pretending to be graceful

Hua Yong was very puzzled by how Jiang Fang saw that Gu Shui had let her go.

In his opinion, Gu Shuiqing has always had such an indifferent attitude, no different from before - but even Jiang Yifang said yes, so let's go.

When they left, Jiang Fang didn't send them off.

Hua Yong no longer had those unrealistic so-called ideas of helping them ease the relationship - so he felt more and more fond of Gu Shuiqing.

This person, facing Jiang Yifang who is doing his own way, after so many years?Also contains the much-criticized but powerless childhood?Where was she when he needed love and support the most?

Hua Yong was silent all the way.

It's not that Jiang Fang doesn't understand, she knows how to say "thank you" to Hua Yong, and wishes "happiness" - she knows everything about what to do, but why doesn't she do anything?

Gu Shuiqing has been able to grow up safely to this day, and he can still be so calm and indifferent. One of the main purposes of life is not to cause trouble to others, and not to become an unstable element in society-how hard it must be for him.

How can I let go?Even Hua Yong couldn't let him go!

"Hey, it's okay, I didn't say anything." Gu Shuiqing watched the air pressure around the person beside him getting lower and lower, and couldn't help but make a sound.

"You...you should actually say something." Hua Yong's voice was a little hoarse.

Gu Shui shook his head lightly, very calmly: "There is really nothing to say. I hate her and blame her...I admit, of course I do. It's just that these emotions of mine are only for specific people. I still I only care about her because I regard her as my family member and force myself to be one. But in fact, it would be much better to be a stranger. In fact, she is no different from a stranger. "

"I want to treat her as a 'son', but at the same time, I am deeply aware of my rejection of it. I don't want others to think that I am ruthless to my family, and I hope to get rid of her as soon as possible... There is such a good thing. I Enough is enough."

Gu Shui thought lightly, anyway, I don't even hide my "homosexuality" and I'm not afraid of you saying, what is an unfilial son?

"She doesn't deserve to be a mother. I don't want such a mother either." It was a joy to admit it openly.

Hua Yong hugged him: "Yes, she is not worthy. Here—" He looked around, "We will never come back again, okay?"

"it is good."

Gu Shuisi received Gu Shuiqing's call when he was about to go to the cafeteria for dinner.

Gu Shui said lightly that he came back from Yu Town, instead of flying directly to City B, he came next door to see her first—it was just two days since he hadn't seen her, and she had just arrived at school, so she didn't know what to see.

But of course Gu Shuisi agreed. Anyway, school has just started and the schoolwork is not busy, so why not let someone treat you to a meal?

Of course, she still has reasons for wanting to meet Gu Shuiqing, and she has speculations that she wants to confirm.

Why did he go to Yuzhen for no reason?Why did you choose to take a detour to see yourself? …Following a little further, what did he do on the spur of the moment that night?

Then the mystery was solved when she saw the two waiting for her side by side at the school gate—as expected.

Seeing her coming, Hua Yong patted Gu Shuiqing who was looking down at the phone beside him, Gu Shuiqing asked with sideways eyes, Hua Yong said something to him in a low voice, Gu Shuiqing also looked over.

It was a bit far away, so I couldn't see clearly, Gu Shuisi guessed that he was smiling - Mr. Hua's gesture of waving at her was more recognizable.Gu Shuisi took out his hand and waved it.

The picture is a little sweet.Gu Shuisi thought.

Before seeing Gu Shuisi, Hua Yong was actually a little apprehensive.

He still remembered the eerie and scary girl who couldn't even crack a joke more than a year ago.

But the one approaching now, with slow steps, elegant posture, and a smile on his face—it's almost like a second Gu Shuiqing.

Hua Yong was a little startled.Gu Shui sighed softly: "You can see, it's like this. But she thinks it's fine, what can I say?"

The two also took two steps up: "Hi, Siu."

Gu Shuisi first looked at Gu Shuiqing: "Brother." Then he looked at Huayong seriously - and then he relaxed: "Long time no see, Huayong."

Hua Yong also followed her and breathed a sigh of relief: "Long time no see." It's strange that he wasn't so nervous when facing Jiang Yifang—well, this is actually the first time he saw Gu Shuiqing's family.

Gu Shuisi put his pockets in his pocket and stomped his feet: "It's still quite cold, let's find a place to eat quickly, don't freeze here. I was going to eat just now, and I'm hungry now."

Hua Yong laughed: "Then you lead the way, I'll treat you."

"Okay, anyway, I can't be considered a landlord, so I won't use up my friendship as a landlord."

Gu Shuisi took the two of them to a small shop, and ordered some stir-fried vegetables and steamed buns: "My local classmate said that if you want to eat buns in T City, you have to come to this small shop , this is delicious."

The three of them huddled together in the humble shop, full of fireworks.

Hua Yong opened the disposable chopsticks: "This can be used anywhere. Those famous and time-honored brands are generally not recommended by locals."

Gu Shuisi nodded: "Yes, yes. Fortunately, I have always grown up in the streets and alleys, and I have not been poisoned by those famous shops."

It was only then that Hua Yong remembered that according to the legend, before Gu Shuisi became so creepy, she was an impulsive and unruly girl.

The brothers and sisters were killed so badly.

Gu Shui lightly picked up a bun and tasted it: "Mmm, it's delicious."

Hua Yong followed immediately.

Gu Shuisi sat across from him and rolled his eyes with a smile: "Hey, tell me, why are you two together?"

Gu Shui remained calm, while Hua Yong stopped his chopsticks in the air and blinked: "So obvious?"

"Puchi," Gu Shuisi smiled, "isn't it you, is this strange? Before my brother went to find you that day, I made the last phone call, and I persuaded him with those words. Could it be that I can't figure it out?" What happened? ——For so many years, I have also seen that he was not calm about your affairs. "

Gu Shuisi's eyes became distant, and he thought about it but found it funny: "Oh, what did you say 'so many years', in fact, we haven't seen each other very often since we were six years old. During the holidays, my brother will come to see, and then leave , I don’t meet many people, so naturally I communicate even less. This brother’s sense of existence is almost gone.”

"Actually, when we met you in Yuzhen, our relationship had just been repaired, right?" Gu Shuisi held the juice and looked at Gu Shuiqing, "I didn't know until then that my brother is different from others. There is something in between that is indescribably special. Then I thought, if we were allowed to grow up together, none of us would have become like this.”

Hua Yong thinks about it, and thinks it is.Gu Shuiqing was able to alleviate Xiaosi's extremes, and Xiaosi's staunch temper would not allow Gu Shuiqing to endure all that.

Unfortunately, no if.

"Let's not talk about that," Gu Shuisi was still analyzing, "It is impossible for my brother to go to Yuzhen for no reason, plus the previous speculation, it is very likely that he was with you, um... something like a breakup? Gu Shuisi suddenly thanked Hua Yong solemnly, "I really want to thank you. Since my brother is willing to go, it shows a lot of things."

Hua Yong, who received two solemn thanks in one day, felt that he was really... ashamed.

Gu Shuiqing was able to come out because he was so strong and he could think clearly.As a "catalyst", Huayong really didn't dare to take it.

Gu Shui sighed lightly.

Is he a person who makes people feel insecure?

"Why are you so eager to thank him?" Gu Shui asked lightly, "Am I so pitiful? Always waiting for others to save me? I've never seen you pity me before. And..." Gu Shui turned sideways , looking at Hua Yong who suddenly fell down, "It's too shallow to say thank you in front of love."

Hua Yong's eyes lit up.

Alas, this person is really, more and more like a child, and he has to coax him if he has something to do.

Gu Shuisi was not abused at all: "Oh, I learned a trick. I hope you can find someone to thank one day in the future, and then I will refute affectionately like this."

Gu Shui thought lightly, there will be.Even I can be so lucky, you must be too.

Hua Yong began to care about Gu Shuisi's love life: "Xiao Si, how are you doing, is there anyone you like?"

Gu Shuisi spread his hands: "No, I'm not ready yet. I...like my brother, I may lack the ability in this area. I need someone who is willing to persevere and be tolerant enough... Ah, wait a moment."

Hua Yongzheng wanted to say that it was not entirely true, but Gu Shuisi's words were interrupted by the phone first——then she asked with a strange expression: "Do you mind... one more person?"

==

Hua Yong definitely doesn't mind having one more person, even if he doesn't know this person, there will be no embarrassment at the dinner table——

But this person is Gu Changming.

The brothers and sisters of the Gu family should eat and drink, and they are not affected at all, but Hua Yong feels that it is really impossible to stay in this narrow space.

Who will tell him, Tangtang Gu Dong, why did he sit with them in this restaurant that completely doesn't match his style of painting and eat this home-cooked food?

Well, in fact, Gu Dong just came here on a business trip to visit his daughter, and by chance, he picked up the two of them.

After Huayong knew the relationship between Gu Shuiqing and Gu Changming, he asked his father Hualing, and knew that his family had no business relationship with the Gu family, so all his understanding of Gu Changming came from various information from Lu Anke. A kind of "legend" - unique vision, tough work, is a very ambitious person.

But now, this "very ambitious man" is sitting opposite him, and is holding vegetables for his daughter.

——Student Lu Anke is no longer unreliable.

The space is narrow, and the distance between people is inevitably getting closer. Gu Shuiqing, who has always been tightly enveloping in front of Gu Changming, is softer—especially listening to the conversation between Hua Yong and Gu Changming. I can't help laughing.

"Ah... How is Uncle." These words trembled.

"Hello. You are Hua Yong, right? Xiaoqing's friend?"

"Yeah, good friend, good friend." Mr. Hua, are you a primary school student?

"It's the first time I've heard that he has friends other than Zhang Wei."

"Ha, we've only known each other for two years." Well, we have to get rid of the loss of contact for more than a year.

Gu Shui underestimated Hua Yong because he was really trembling, so he helped him and interrupted: "Dad, are you checking your household registration?"

Gu Changming's chopsticks knocked on the bowl immediately: How long has it been since Gu Shuiqing opened his mouth when he was free?

His hands were a little unsteady, so he had to gently put down the chopsticks: "I'm just, a little... excited."

Gu Changming is also a person who is used to going straight - Lu Anke is really not that unreliable: "You will let me come over after you know it's me. You didn't leave, and you were with your friends."

Gu Shui lightly thought about it, put down his chopsticks, and said, "Actually, I just came back from Yu Town."

Gu Changming closed his eyes, hiding his expression at that moment. "Oh. Is your mother okay?" After that, she still had the same expression of neither joy nor sorrow.

Gu Shui glanced at Hua Yong lightly, and then answered irrelevantly: "Probably the only thing I'm lucky about is... Xiao Si is luckier than me. You love her, but Jiang Fang doesn't love me."

When Gu Changming heard him calling his wife by her first name, he realized something: "Are you still?"

Gu Shui lightly held Hua Yong's with the hand under the table: "Yes, I still did it. I don't want to waste my feelings on someone who is not worth it."

Gu Changming sighed leisurely: "That person, she really has too many 'not worth it'. The sooner she understands, the sooner she will be free."

"But you understand, aren't you also relieved?" Gu Shui asked lightly.

"Love, how can it be so simple?" Gu Changming smiled, very calmly, "But it doesn't matter, there is nothing you can't make it through."

Gu Shui nodded lightly.Gu Changming was taken aback by his rare approval.

How is he different?Where did all that fake indifference go?The truthful but ruthless words made Gu Changming feel strange.

Gu Shuisi knocked on the table: "Dinner, you guys. It's rare for us to sit at the same table. If Gu Nian is here, everyone will be here." She put a steamed bun into Gu Changming's bowl, "Taste Try this, my brother just said it was delicious."

"Then you eat. Dad, since you are here to see Xiao Si, you must have something to say, so let's go first." Gu Shui stood up lightly, put on the coat Hua Yong handed him, "Next time If there is a chance, let's talk again."

Gu Changming really didn't come to his senses this time.next time?And next time?

"Also," Gu Shui lightly took Hua Yong's hand and brought it to his lips, "We are not good friends—" He kissed gently, "Let me re-introduce my boyfriend, Hua Yong."
