After scumming me, they all regret it
Chapter 67 you and me
For the first time, Xie Gui didn't refute Lan Xiuzhi's order, walked up to her and knelt obediently.
With a height of 1.8 meters five and above, kneeling in front of the hospital bed, his posture is ridiculous.
"Tell me, what have you done to Chen Chen all these years?" Lan Xiuzhi endured it, holding the hand on the edge of the hospital bed with bluish knuckles.
Xie Gui's lips moved, but he couldn't say anything.
It's not that he wants to excuse himself for that stupid thing, he can't justify what he did to Chen Zhouhe.
Years of cold violence, swearing at him, teasing him countless times...
Later, he was forced to voluntarily withdraw from the engagement.
"Speak! Why can't you tell what you have done?!" Lan Xiuzhi stared, her lips were trembling, "You also know that you can't say what you have done! Okay, okay... Then I will ask you one by one."
"Let me ask you! Did you force Chen Chen to have this car accident?!"
"Yes." Xie Gui's back was slightly bent, and the hazy yellow wall lamp elongated his figure, making him indescribably depressed.
"Did you plan to lure him to the club, and join your cronies to give him alcohol?!"
"Yes."
"Do you hate him and let him die instead of Jiang Zhuye over and over again?!"
"……Yes."
Following Lan Xiuzhi's questioning, Xie Gui responded one after another, and he couldn't deny everything. After tearing off the fig leaf, he saw clearly how inferior he was to Chen Zhouhe.
"Thank you Gui..." Lan Xiuzhi leaned back on the hospital bed as if she had lost her strength, her eyes were moist.
Xie Baozhen had never seen such a battle before, so she panicked and supported Lan Xiuzhi: "Mommy, the doctor told you not to be too emotional..."
Lan Xiuzhi closed her eyes, nodded Xie Gui with trembling hands, as if extremely disappointed.
"When I handed you over to Chen Chen, did I hurt him?" Lan Xiuzhi sighed deeply, "I always feel that you are still young and have a childlike heart. I always want to wait for you to grow up and mature." Let me tell you, every time you get into trouble, either I or Chen Chen are responsible for raising you so lawlessly."
"You don't know how good Chen Chen is to you..."
Xie Gui didn't know when and how he left the ward, he just felt that these few hours of the day that subverted his previous cognition had a strong sense of unreality.
"Young master... why is it raining, young master, come in quickly..." The maid aunt of the old house saw Xie Gui coming from the rain curtain, exclaimed, and hurriedly held up an umbrella to meet him.
Xie Gui opened the umbrella, shook her head silently, and went up to the second floor like a walking dead.
He went to Chen Zhouhe's room.
Since Chen Zhouhe bought a house by himself, he seldom lived in the old house, and his things were basically moved away, leaving behind mostly old things.
The room is very tidy, half of the book wall separates the bed from the sofa, there is a coat on the sofa, and the bed is soft.
Xie Gui was like a wounded beast, circling around the room, desperately trying to grab something to fill the emptiness in his heart.
He was at a loss and wanted to find Chen Zhouhe, but he was a little... afraid to see him.
There is a photo album on the bookshelf.
Xie Gui stared at it, took it down, and nestled on the floor in front of the sofa to look through it.
Chen Zhouhe himself doesn't like to take pictures, Xie Gui and Xie Baozhen like to take pictures, so most of the albums are photos of him and Xie Gui, and there are very few single photos.
On the first page, Xie Baozhen took a photo of Xie Gui at the entrance of the hospital just after Xie Gui was discharged from the hospital.
Little Xie Gui put her arms around Chen Zhouhe's waist tightly and hid behind him. Little Chen Zhouhe was a little unaccustomed, and looked a little serious.
Later, most of them were afraid of being caught by Xie Baozhen.
Xie Gui climbed on the sofa, Chen Zhouhe supported him with one hand, and protected his back with the other, and kept looking at him.
Then the two go to school.
Chen Zhouhe was raised not so thin, wearing a small uniform, holding a small oil bottle Xie Gui, Xie Gui looked at the driver, Chen Zhouhe looked at him.
Later, when Chen Zhouhe went to junior high school, his eyebrows grew a little bit, and he had the faint taste of a high-cold school grass. When Xie Baozhen secretly photographed him, he still felt a little unnatural, and subconsciously raised his hand to block the camera.
The following are basically single photos of Xie Gui, taken by Chen Zhouhe, and occasionally there are one or two photos of the two of them under Xie Gui's pressure, Chen Zhouhe is all helpless.
Xie Gui remembered that before Chen Zhouhe ran away from home, his personality was quite different from what it is now.
Taciturn and cold, everything is held in his heart, and he never says what he wants, which is very different from the gentleness later.
Not to mention the delicacy in the meticulous care of him.
All the changes started on the day Chen Zhouhe was brought back to Xie's house by him.
Xie Gui caressed Chen Zhouhe's face in the photo, and suddenly choked up. In fact, he lied to Chen Zhouhe that day.
He didn't take care of him in the rented room all the time. The boy named Li Ye did all the things for Chen Zhouhe to buy medicine, measure body temperature and apply towels. When Xie Gui arrived, he was still in front of Chen Zhouhe's bed. keep watch.
Out of selfishness, Xie Gui drove him away, held Chen Zhouhe's hand, and fell into a light sleep.
The moment Chen Zhouhe woke up, he actually woke up too, but he didn't dare to open his eyes for fear of hearing Chen Zhouhe say he was going to leave again. He was used to having a very powerful brother and Chen Zhouhe's taking care of him. , and got used to the way he couldn't bear to get angry with himself every time he jumped on Chen Zhouhe's bottom line.
The rental house that day was as cold as the day when Chen Zhou and the car accident were hospitalized.
Xie Gui felt his hand on her face and a weak sigh.
That is to say, from that sigh, Chen Zhouhe's life was completely lived for him.
Maybe what Lan Xiuzhi said was right, he changed Chen Zhouhe's life, maybe when Chen Zhouhe was sent to an orphanage to be adopted or followed by distant cousins who wanted to take him away, his life was worse than staying in Happy thanks home.
"Chen Chen scored very high in the college entrance examination. His first choice was actually the police academy. At that time, he took the physical examination without telling us that we didn't know. We knew it from the day he signed up for the physical examination. We just kept watching and watching him. Secretly trained and secretly tested, and finally passed, then tell him that the Xie family does not need the police, and neither does Xie Gui." Lan Xiuzhi told him what happened back then in the ward, with a regretful look on her face, "I intend to teach him a lesson... …When a person pays more for one thing, he gets more involved. I watched Chen Chen complete all the procedures, and finally told him no. I want him to know, don’t be indifferent in front of me. He should have thought about it, he must live for Xie Gui when he grows up in Xie's family, maybe... maybe I was wrong back then, I shouldn't have stopped him or forced him to join the company."
"Xie Gui, Chen Chen has been forced to come to this day, we are all to blame."
Xie Gui choked and took a few breaths, and continued to scroll down.
Since Jiang Zhuye's accident, the number of photos has become less and less, and there are more landscape photos, all of which are full of ruins. Occasionally, there is a portrait of someone named Li Ye.
Suddenly, Xie Gui stopped.
Starting from the third to last page, the photo on it is still him, but Xie Gui doesn't know when it was taken.
One is a group photo of him participating in a competition with the school team when he was a sophomore. His school won the first prize and received the award on stage.
Xie Gui stood in the last row with lazy eyes.
The photo was a little loose, Xie Gui pulled it out, only to find that there was writing on the back.
——To commemorate, the little boy grew up and won the first prize in the provincial competition. I am really proud of him.
Xie Gui's eyelashes trembled, and she took out each photo with trembling hands.
——At the school’s New Year’s Eve party, the little girl Xie Gui performed a drum set, which was pretty cool. The screaming scene of the little girl below should be very cool.
——The first prize in the national competition, the photos on the school's official website did not capture the handsomeness of Xie Gui, the pixels are really too bad.
——Family dinner, secretly hiding on the second floor to sleep.
……
The last one is a photo of the employees Xie Gui joined the company three months ago, and the text behind it is a letter——
Xie Gui, I don't know if you can read this less strict farewell letter or not, but if you do, I have something to say.
We have been entangled for many years, even if we tear up our faces and become such a chicken feather, I still don't deny that I once liked you.
I have liked your enthusiasm, kindness and courage, and I have tolerated your temper and your badness.
But it won’t happen in the future. My guilt and superficial love for you have been exhausted by you. Now that you have grown up, I am more relaxed than ever to be able to join the company and shoulder the responsibilities that should belong to you.You always think that I should be very resistant to your company's affairs, but it is not the case. As early as the moment you told me, I knew that I might be free in the near future.
I'm leaving to live my own life, and I wish you the best of yours.
I also wish us good-bye as strangers.
Of course, it's best not to say goodbye.
It was signed by Chen Zhouhe, and the three characters were written solemnly and forcefully.
Stranger.
don't say goodbye.
These were the last words Chen Zhouhe left for him.
Xie Gui clutched the photo tightly, a vague sob overflowed from her throat, like a huge wave bursting a bank, and finally she couldn't cry.
"Don't...Chen Zhouhe, Chen Zhouhe..." Xie Gui stuck the photo on his chest, as if that was the only way to cherish the handwriting and its owner.
The spring rain outside the window was getting thicker, Xie Gui choked with red eyes in the sound of the rain, and finally called out the name he hadn't called for a long time: "Brother..."
Han Ren always felt that it was a wrong decision for him to be friends with Xie Gui.
This thought was especially strong when he slapped Xie Gui's number again.
"Hello..." Xie Gui's voice was hoarse and weak, which seriously made Han Ren feel that this guy was going to go west in a second.
"I said it's okay, brother," Han couldn't bear it, "Come out for a gathering?"
"No..." Xie Gui didn't even think about it.
"It's just the two of us, if you have anything to say to your brother, I'll help you see if you can come up with an idea." Han Ren persuaded him, "It's been three days and I won't answer your calls. You're going to scare someone to death ?”
It's useless, Xie Gui curled up on Chen Zhouhe's bed, sniffing the subtle breath of Chen Zhouhe on the quilt.
It's useless to say anything, Chen Zhouhe doesn't want him anymore.
His brother doesn't want him anymore.
Xie Gui rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, the three days of ignorance made his eyes sore and painful.
"Hello? Hello!" Han Ren took down the phone and took a look to make sure that he didn't hang up the phone. He sighed and resorted to his trump card, "My buddy has heard about Brother Chen, so you can tell me whether you want to listen or not."
There was no movement at first, then there was a rustle, Xie Gui's tone was unprecedentedly urgent: "Where is it?"
Han Ren clicked his tongue and gave an address.
The moon and stars were scarce, Xie Gui followed the navigation to find the address given by Han Ren - a very secluded bar.
Seeing him for the first time, Han Ren almost didn't recognize him.
His eye sockets were sunken, his eyebrows were haggard, his beard was unshaven, and his face was as white as if he had just been dug out of the earth.
Is this still his flamboyant brother?
"No, why did you get mixed up like this these days?" Han Ren couldn't understand, and ordered him a glass of low-alcohol fruit wine, "What happened?"
Xie Gui didn't have much strength, so she told him the matter in a low voice.
Han Ren's expression changed again and again following Xie Gui's description, and finally put on a pain mask, and took a sip of wine to suppress his shock.
But facing Xie Gui's pitiful and nervous dog eyes, which were filled with the hope of "Can I still be saved", he kept saying those words in his throat, such as "scum", "can't be saved", "wait for death" "Farewell" swallowed back.
"So that means, Brother Chen is sincere to you..." Han Ren said with emotion, "I said before, if he is really motivated by profit, how can he do that? It's easy to see whether he has intentions or not. .”
"I failed him." Xie Gui lowered his eyes.
"It's not all your fault, after all, no one would have thought about Jiang Zhuye." Han Ren patted him on the shoulder, "Then what are your plans now?"
When he asked this, Xie Gui was taken aback.
He hadn't had time to think about it yet.
Seeing his expression, Han Ren understood, and sighed: "I didn't say that, Xie Gui, you are really well raised by Brother Chen, you don't understand anything like a little canary, adults have the way of adults , look at Brother Chen, even if he is humiliated by you so much, he can still make you look like he doesn't care at all. Even if he gets to this point and can't stay any longer, he should deal with everything decently before leaving... "
Xie Gui squeezed the wine glass tightly and said nothing. After a long time, he said with difficulty: "Please explain clearly."
He really doesn't understand a lot of things, and even more ignorant of the ways of the world, but now he wants to understand, he wants to know what he missed.
"Let me ask you, if it were you, from Chen Zhouhe's point of view, what would you do if you were leaving that day?" Han Ren finished speaking, without waiting for him to answer, "Don't ask, just you Breaking your temper, when you think about enduring this idiot Xie Gui in the future, even if you never see him again in the future, you are not afraid that he will seek revenge on you. You must punch someone to vent your anger when you go up. You never hold back your anger. People are used to you, it has always been like this, right?"
"Including what happened until now, you just locked yourself up, didn't you think about going to make up for the wrong things you did?"
"Thought about it," Xie Gui lowered her head, "I want to go to him, apologize to him, I want him to come back."
"What about after you come back? Take care of your food and daily life like a nanny. You have to wait on you when you come home from working as a cow and horse in the company. I don't take you to such a troublesome person." Han couldn't help complaining, "It's like high school brother Chen who ran away from home. You only care about whether he will come back, whether he will return to your side, you never cared why he left."
Xie Gui: "..."
"Besides, if you just want Brother Chen to live a good life, why do you have to come back? He is now pursuing his own life. No matter what, he is definitely happier than staying by your side. Why do you have to be happy when he is happy?" Forcing him to come back? After all, you are just a habit, you are just used to his existence."
"No," Xie Gui raised her head, blank eyes flashed across her eyes, "it's not a habit, I...I feel bad, when I think of him being so disappointed because I was so sad, I feel bad."
Han Ren paused, and looked at Xie Gui with a strange look: "I remember you told me before that the person you like is Jiang Zhuye."
Xie Gui didn't know how his topic changed so quickly, and raised his eyes in doubt: "What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong with you," Han Ren suddenly felt dizzy. This problem was more difficult to deal with than he imagined. He asked incredulously, "Do you really think you like Jiang Zhuye?"
Xie Gui: "...I don't know."
In the past, when Jiang Zhuye was still by his side, Xie Gui always liked to cling to him, because they shared the same views and shared the same interests, and in Lan Xiuzhi's words, it was "to be in trouble".
Unlike Chen Zhou and the boss who restrained him and told him what to do and what not to do, he was completely relaxed in front of Jiang Zhuye.
Xie Gui has always felt that this is liking.
"Let me ask you," Han Ren leaned over and tentatively said, "You said you like Jiang Zhuye, so do you want to kiss him? Do you think a lot of romantic things with him? Do you... think What about him?"
Xie Gui seemed to be stepped on the tail: "How, how is it possible?!"
He and Jiang Zhuye!
Xie Gui imagined that scene and found it unacceptable. Even when they were in the best relationship, if they were asked to kiss, Xie Gui would feel goosebumps, and probably would die of laughter just by looking at each other.
"Then from another angle, would you think of Chen Zhouhe like this?" Han Ren asked again.
Xie Gui was silent.
In an instant, his brain that had been useless for three days became brighter, and it helped him recall Chen Zhouhe's waist, his watery peach blossom eyes...
And the last time they were drunk, their kiss.
Xie Gui actually had a secret, which no one told.
When Chen Zhou and lived together to prepare for the college entrance examination, the school held a high school mobilization meeting, and gave them an afternoon to relax after the meeting.
He was taken by some friends that day, saying that he was looking for something good, but it turned out to be something about men and women. He probably saw that Xie Gui was absent-minded. That friend obviously misunderstood him, so he slapped him on the chest very righteously, and changed his type .
Xie Gui opened the door to the new world, which caused him to look at Chen Zhouhe in the wrong way that night.
Chen Zhouhe came out of the bathroom, looked at him while wiping his hair, and asked him what's wrong with suspicious eyes, Xie Gui's eyes fell on his two calves that were exposed outside.
Beautiful, straight, and resilient.
That night he had a dream.
He didn't speak, and Han Ren probably guessed it. He didn't want to be too exaggerated, but he couldn't help it: "I'm sure, you really...you..."
"How can there be such a stupid person," Han Ren complained sincerely, "he can even mistake the person he likes..."
Xie Gui woke up like a dream, with a pair of deep downcast eyes staring round.
It turns out that the person he has always liked is Chen Zhouhe...
"Then it's going to be difficult for you. If you're just feeling guilty about your brother, it's okay. After you find someone, admit your mistake. Brother Chen's measure should not be bothered with you, but I think he will treat you as close as before. It's definitely not possible, after all, don't say that he didn't kill Jiang Zhuye, and his parents didn't kill your parents, even if he did, what he did for you is enough for you to repay your kindness for three lifetimes." Han Ren clicked tut twice , "You just like him... Unless Chen Ge Stockholm, otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?"
"Think about it for yourself, the person you like, you treat him with all your heart and soul, fearing that he will be cold, fearing that he will be hot, fearing that he will be unhappy, and coaxing him at ease. Your friend beat you to death, causing you to have a high fever and get into a car accident, do you still like that he is not sick?" Han Ren talked quickly, seeing Xie Gui's paler and paler face, he stopped in time and sighed , "Did I tell you earlier, don't be too extreme in everything, just look at what you did..." Call it a human thing?
"I know I was wrong," Xie Gui's eyes warmed up again, and she whispered, "I want to treat him well, just like he treats me..."
"You'd better find him first," Han Ren said, "I asked someone to check. Brother Chen should be in country E now. I don't have the specific address. It's so big, I will continue to help you find it. You... just let fate .”
Xie Gui sniffled.
"By the way, are you still going to the company?" Han Ren said.
"Go," Xie Gui's voice gradually became firmer, "I've made up my mind. If he doesn't like going to the company, I'll go. I'll do whatever he doesn't like. He can do whatever he wants, and I'll tell him later." He's doing it, and I, I want to make him happy."
They were already engaged, almost, almost, he could give Chen Zhouhe such a life.
In just a few days after leaving Chen Zhou and Bibi, Xie Gui finally understood what he had missed. Unfortunately...
The man who cast him the ivory tower no longer wanted him.
Xie Gui couldn't imagine that if Chen Zhouhe liked him, then when he did those things and said those things...
Chen Zhouhe should be so sad.
Looking at the back of Xie Gui leaving, Han Ren shook his head: "Love..."
This kind of life lasted for two years. Xie Gui graduated successfully and was admitted to Chen Zhou and his alma mater as a graduate student. He lived the same life as he used to. The second existence with an itchy tooth, while taking the class Chen Zhouhe had attended, walked the campus he had walked.
He began to become more tactful, and his words and deeds became more measured.
In the past two years, he never gave up looking for Chen Zhouhe.
In their chat box, the messages he sent to Chen Zhouhe didn't reach the end at all. Although he knew that Chen Zhouhe might no longer use this phone number, Xie Gui still stubbornly sent it every day.
He was doing what Chen Zhouhe had done before, and he seemed to understand Chen Zhouhe's feelings back then.
Like redemption, but also like a faint hope.
It seemed that as long as he waved desperately on the spot, the person in front turned around with a trace of pity, and he could see it.
Unlike him, Chen Zhouhe lives like a fish in water.
Li Ye squeezed through the crowded crowd, panting heavily, approached the most primitive and elegant tea house on this street, and found a place to sit down with ease.
"Brother Li, are you here again?" The boy who did the odd job saw his eyes lit up, "I'll call Brother Chen."
"Is he still sleeping?" Li Ye asked incredulously.
"That's not right, recently... what about sorting out the books?" The young man smiled awkwardly.
"Stop making excuses for him. He's the only one who's still sorting out the books. Let's put it down. You say he's going to the bar for a night and Dicky is more reliable than that."
"Stop spreading rumors about me." Chen Zhouhe walked down the stairs to Li, yawned, his peachy eyes were slanted, "Xiao Zhao, serve a pot of good tea."
"Okay, Brother Chen." The young man walked away in a hurry.
"I'm convinced too. How did you come to the idea of opening a tea house under this broken mountain? You don't know that there are scenic spots on this broken mountain. Every time I come, I'm crowded like a thousand-layer cake." Li Ye took two sips of water, He touched his mouth and said.
"I'm convinced too, why do you choose the peak tourist season every time you come here, and the street can be haunted in the off-season here." Chen Zhouhe sat down opposite him, resting his arms on the carved window sill and looking down.
He has a beautiful complexion, and in addition to the fact that he hasn't been under any pressure in the past two years, his demeanor around him has become sluggish, his bright eyes are shining, and his face is like a peach blossom. Just holding on like this, many people below are looking at him.
"Brother Chen, there are a lot of people coming to order again. I will make do with the difference between you and Brother Li at this table." Xiao Zhao came up to greet them, and served them a pot of warm tea.
"Go ahead, treat them well, your boss tricked you with her beauty." Chen Zhouhe raised his chin, and felt even more shameless at Li Ye's rather speechless expression, "I really just sit like this Everything becomes a landscape alone.”
Li Ye's face looked as if he had eaten pig food: "I still miss your slapstick look in high school."
Chen Zhouhe smiled slightly: "Then you should miss it well, and miss it for me too."
With his smile, more people screamed downstairs. There were a few bold little girls who took out their mobile phones to take pictures. Chen Zhouhe cooperated very well and even tilted his head slightly towards the camera.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Help, he's really handsome..."
"Let's go, let's go in and make tea..."
"Is it really tea you want to make?"
"Brother Chen," Xiao Zhao ran up with a bitter face, "Can you stop sitting by the window, there are not enough seats downstairs, you two should make room for the guests."
Xiao Zhao was so emboldened by Chen Zhouhe's habit, he picked up the teapot and pulled Chen Zhouhe up, forcing them to change places.
"You are the boss... aggrieved." Li Ye shook his head.
"You know what a fart," Chen Zhouhe said, standing on the edge of the railing, and shouting to the people below, "Everyone...everyone! Thanks to everyone who doesn't dislike you, come to our teahouse and have a sit. Friends, look for the handsome guy who took your order, this afternoon's ladies and brothers will all get a [-]% discount."
After finishing speaking, Chen Zhouhe thought for a while: "The ones that are particularly good-looking can be exempted."
"How can it be considered particularly beautiful..."
"Yeah yeah……"
"I don't want a free order, but can I ask the boss's WeChat account?"
Chen Zhou and Guan Sha didn't care about burying them, like an oiran, making everyone downstairs restless. He leisurely hid in the small attic, dug out his stock, and made a cup of tea for Li Ye.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, I'm so fucking moved, you actually made me tea yourself." Li Ye sighed.
"The boss makes it himself. It's not too much to charge you twice the price, right?" Chen Zhouhe asked him.
"You give the girls downstairs a [-]% discount, and I get twice the price?" Li Ye squinted at him, "Black hearted stuff."
"Can you be as cute as a girl?" Chen Zhouhe took a sip of tea, "You can be as cute as a little girl, my boss will make it for you, and I'll just work for you."
Li Ye: "..." Doggy!I shouldn't have rescued you from the fire pit in the first place!
"You don't go to my Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, tell me what's going on," Chen Zhouhe said, "How is Jiang Zhuye?"
"He still runs around like usual," Li Ye restrained his expression, "He asked me to tell you, be careful recently, Xie Gui and his friends should find out that you are no longer in country E."
Li Ye thought that Chen Zhouhe would be surprised, or be silent.
But he looked relaxed, as if hearing news from a stranger.
"Really? I heard that he went to country E for vacation every two years?"
"Vacation is fake, so looking for you is the real thing." Li Ye didn't have a good impression of Xie Gui, "I really don't understand, what is he trying to do, can he look for you for two years?"
"I don't understand either." Chen Zhouhe stretched his waist, "After he looks for another two years, he should be able to give up, and then find a place to play for a while."
Li Ye was speechless for two seconds, and his eyes were complicated: "You have a big heart."
He wanted to continue complaining, but the back of his foot was heavy, and Li Ye was so frightened that his hairs stood on end on the spot, and he almost jumped out of the window.
"Take, take away! Quick! Take it away!" He pointed at the innocent kitten on the ground and shouted.
Chen Zhouhe clicked his tongue, picked up the little puppet on the ground, hugged it in his arms, and said "progress".
"It's the first time I've seen someone afraid of cats." Chen Zhouhe couldn't believe it.
"You are a cat who has never seen a rainforest, and I will kill you with one paw..." Li Ye patted his chest and rolled his eyes.
The two chatted casually, and the topic returned to the original.
"So you are not afraid that he will find you?" Li Ye asked him.
"Why should I be afraid of him?" Chen Zhouhe looked at him with a strange look, "It's not me who did the wrong thing, besides... we will meet sooner or later."
Li Ye:? !
Chen Zhouhe sighed: "Two days ago, grandma called me."
When Chen Zhouhe left, he went to see Lan Xiuzhi. Although he was tired of the life at that time, Lan Xiuzhi still did not forget Chen Zhouhe's kindness to him.
He left Lan Xiuzhi a phone number, saying that he could call him if there was anything, but usually he would not answer the phone.
Lan Xiuzhi kept her promise and helped him hide it from Xie Gui, which is why Xie Gui couldn't find out his whereabouts after two years of investigation.
But just last week, Lan Xiuzhi called him for the first time.
The doctor said that her condition was becoming more and more unstable, and it was only a year at most.The confrontation between Xie Ziqian and Xie Gui in the company became more and more intense, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the discord between them.
"She still wants you to help Xie Gui?" Li Ye couldn't believe it, "How can she speak?"
"I haven't agreed to this matter yet, and I'm still thinking about it," Chen Zhouhe took a sip of tea, "To be honest, I don't really want to get involved with their family, but..."
Lan Xiuzhi's voice sounded extremely weak, her youthful vigor was weakened by her illness, and Chen Zhouhe's voice of refusal got stuck in her throat because of her old begging.
"Don't be so stupid as to agree," Li Ye knew what he was thinking just by looking at his eyes, "Don't forget how that grandson treated you back then, don't call me from the hospital bed again."
"I know that, but grandma..."
"Grandma, grandma, you fucking love her grandma all the time, who cares about you?!" Li Ye was so excited that he stood up, his eyes were slightly red.
Probably realizing that his tone was too aggressive, he suppressed his thoughts and turned his face away: "Anyway, I don't agree with this matter. If you agree, don't come to me in the future..."
After finishing speaking, regardless of Chen Zhouhe's astonished gaze, he turned around and left.
"Brother Li? Why did Brother Li leave..." Little Zhao just came up to deliver the snacks when he saw Li Ye leaving angrily. He turned to look at Chen Zhouhe with a blank expression.
"Let him go," Chen Zhouhe sighed, "The boss is in a bad mood today, so he will give free orders to all the guests downstairs."
Xiao Zhao suddenly broke his face: "You are going to lose money, ancestor..."
Chen Zhouhe chuckled: "Do you really think I make money from this small teahouse? Hurry up!"
Xiao Zhao: "..." My boss is someone else's boss without telling me? !
"Xie Gui, this year the team will go on a trip, do you want to go together?" The girl in the same group plucked up the courage to go to Xie Gui with the encouragement of everyone, and showed him the phone screen, "I checked the guide and said yes A lot of fun."
Xie Gui smiled and shook her head, just about to refuse, her eyes were attracted by a photo.
The person in the photo is leaning against the carved window sill, looking down with a lazy brow and a smile, as if he sensed that someone was taking a sneak shot, he tilted his head slightly and smiled at the camera.
That face appeared in Xie Gui's dreams countless times...
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, he almost lost his voice, his eyes were fixed on the photo, and his thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
Chen Zhou and...
It's Chen Zhouhe!
The author has something to say:
Two chapters in one!
I will fix the last two chapters together tomorrow~
See you tomorrow~
With a height of 1.8 meters five and above, kneeling in front of the hospital bed, his posture is ridiculous.
"Tell me, what have you done to Chen Chen all these years?" Lan Xiuzhi endured it, holding the hand on the edge of the hospital bed with bluish knuckles.
Xie Gui's lips moved, but he couldn't say anything.
It's not that he wants to excuse himself for that stupid thing, he can't justify what he did to Chen Zhouhe.
Years of cold violence, swearing at him, teasing him countless times...
Later, he was forced to voluntarily withdraw from the engagement.
"Speak! Why can't you tell what you have done?!" Lan Xiuzhi stared, her lips were trembling, "You also know that you can't say what you have done! Okay, okay... Then I will ask you one by one."
"Let me ask you! Did you force Chen Chen to have this car accident?!"
"Yes." Xie Gui's back was slightly bent, and the hazy yellow wall lamp elongated his figure, making him indescribably depressed.
"Did you plan to lure him to the club, and join your cronies to give him alcohol?!"
"Yes."
"Do you hate him and let him die instead of Jiang Zhuye over and over again?!"
"……Yes."
Following Lan Xiuzhi's questioning, Xie Gui responded one after another, and he couldn't deny everything. After tearing off the fig leaf, he saw clearly how inferior he was to Chen Zhouhe.
"Thank you Gui..." Lan Xiuzhi leaned back on the hospital bed as if she had lost her strength, her eyes were moist.
Xie Baozhen had never seen such a battle before, so she panicked and supported Lan Xiuzhi: "Mommy, the doctor told you not to be too emotional..."
Lan Xiuzhi closed her eyes, nodded Xie Gui with trembling hands, as if extremely disappointed.
"When I handed you over to Chen Chen, did I hurt him?" Lan Xiuzhi sighed deeply, "I always feel that you are still young and have a childlike heart. I always want to wait for you to grow up and mature." Let me tell you, every time you get into trouble, either I or Chen Chen are responsible for raising you so lawlessly."
"You don't know how good Chen Chen is to you..."
Xie Gui didn't know when and how he left the ward, he just felt that these few hours of the day that subverted his previous cognition had a strong sense of unreality.
"Young master... why is it raining, young master, come in quickly..." The maid aunt of the old house saw Xie Gui coming from the rain curtain, exclaimed, and hurriedly held up an umbrella to meet him.
Xie Gui opened the umbrella, shook her head silently, and went up to the second floor like a walking dead.
He went to Chen Zhouhe's room.
Since Chen Zhouhe bought a house by himself, he seldom lived in the old house, and his things were basically moved away, leaving behind mostly old things.
The room is very tidy, half of the book wall separates the bed from the sofa, there is a coat on the sofa, and the bed is soft.
Xie Gui was like a wounded beast, circling around the room, desperately trying to grab something to fill the emptiness in his heart.
He was at a loss and wanted to find Chen Zhouhe, but he was a little... afraid to see him.
There is a photo album on the bookshelf.
Xie Gui stared at it, took it down, and nestled on the floor in front of the sofa to look through it.
Chen Zhouhe himself doesn't like to take pictures, Xie Gui and Xie Baozhen like to take pictures, so most of the albums are photos of him and Xie Gui, and there are very few single photos.
On the first page, Xie Baozhen took a photo of Xie Gui at the entrance of the hospital just after Xie Gui was discharged from the hospital.
Little Xie Gui put her arms around Chen Zhouhe's waist tightly and hid behind him. Little Chen Zhouhe was a little unaccustomed, and looked a little serious.
Later, most of them were afraid of being caught by Xie Baozhen.
Xie Gui climbed on the sofa, Chen Zhouhe supported him with one hand, and protected his back with the other, and kept looking at him.
Then the two go to school.
Chen Zhouhe was raised not so thin, wearing a small uniform, holding a small oil bottle Xie Gui, Xie Gui looked at the driver, Chen Zhouhe looked at him.
Later, when Chen Zhouhe went to junior high school, his eyebrows grew a little bit, and he had the faint taste of a high-cold school grass. When Xie Baozhen secretly photographed him, he still felt a little unnatural, and subconsciously raised his hand to block the camera.
The following are basically single photos of Xie Gui, taken by Chen Zhouhe, and occasionally there are one or two photos of the two of them under Xie Gui's pressure, Chen Zhouhe is all helpless.
Xie Gui remembered that before Chen Zhouhe ran away from home, his personality was quite different from what it is now.
Taciturn and cold, everything is held in his heart, and he never says what he wants, which is very different from the gentleness later.
Not to mention the delicacy in the meticulous care of him.
All the changes started on the day Chen Zhouhe was brought back to Xie's house by him.
Xie Gui caressed Chen Zhouhe's face in the photo, and suddenly choked up. In fact, he lied to Chen Zhouhe that day.
He didn't take care of him in the rented room all the time. The boy named Li Ye did all the things for Chen Zhouhe to buy medicine, measure body temperature and apply towels. When Xie Gui arrived, he was still in front of Chen Zhouhe's bed. keep watch.
Out of selfishness, Xie Gui drove him away, held Chen Zhouhe's hand, and fell into a light sleep.
The moment Chen Zhouhe woke up, he actually woke up too, but he didn't dare to open his eyes for fear of hearing Chen Zhouhe say he was going to leave again. He was used to having a very powerful brother and Chen Zhouhe's taking care of him. , and got used to the way he couldn't bear to get angry with himself every time he jumped on Chen Zhouhe's bottom line.
The rental house that day was as cold as the day when Chen Zhou and the car accident were hospitalized.
Xie Gui felt his hand on her face and a weak sigh.
That is to say, from that sigh, Chen Zhouhe's life was completely lived for him.
Maybe what Lan Xiuzhi said was right, he changed Chen Zhouhe's life, maybe when Chen Zhouhe was sent to an orphanage to be adopted or followed by distant cousins who wanted to take him away, his life was worse than staying in Happy thanks home.
"Chen Chen scored very high in the college entrance examination. His first choice was actually the police academy. At that time, he took the physical examination without telling us that we didn't know. We knew it from the day he signed up for the physical examination. We just kept watching and watching him. Secretly trained and secretly tested, and finally passed, then tell him that the Xie family does not need the police, and neither does Xie Gui." Lan Xiuzhi told him what happened back then in the ward, with a regretful look on her face, "I intend to teach him a lesson... …When a person pays more for one thing, he gets more involved. I watched Chen Chen complete all the procedures, and finally told him no. I want him to know, don’t be indifferent in front of me. He should have thought about it, he must live for Xie Gui when he grows up in Xie's family, maybe... maybe I was wrong back then, I shouldn't have stopped him or forced him to join the company."
"Xie Gui, Chen Chen has been forced to come to this day, we are all to blame."
Xie Gui choked and took a few breaths, and continued to scroll down.
Since Jiang Zhuye's accident, the number of photos has become less and less, and there are more landscape photos, all of which are full of ruins. Occasionally, there is a portrait of someone named Li Ye.
Suddenly, Xie Gui stopped.
Starting from the third to last page, the photo on it is still him, but Xie Gui doesn't know when it was taken.
One is a group photo of him participating in a competition with the school team when he was a sophomore. His school won the first prize and received the award on stage.
Xie Gui stood in the last row with lazy eyes.
The photo was a little loose, Xie Gui pulled it out, only to find that there was writing on the back.
——To commemorate, the little boy grew up and won the first prize in the provincial competition. I am really proud of him.
Xie Gui's eyelashes trembled, and she took out each photo with trembling hands.
——At the school’s New Year’s Eve party, the little girl Xie Gui performed a drum set, which was pretty cool. The screaming scene of the little girl below should be very cool.
——The first prize in the national competition, the photos on the school's official website did not capture the handsomeness of Xie Gui, the pixels are really too bad.
——Family dinner, secretly hiding on the second floor to sleep.
……
The last one is a photo of the employees Xie Gui joined the company three months ago, and the text behind it is a letter——
Xie Gui, I don't know if you can read this less strict farewell letter or not, but if you do, I have something to say.
We have been entangled for many years, even if we tear up our faces and become such a chicken feather, I still don't deny that I once liked you.
I have liked your enthusiasm, kindness and courage, and I have tolerated your temper and your badness.
But it won’t happen in the future. My guilt and superficial love for you have been exhausted by you. Now that you have grown up, I am more relaxed than ever to be able to join the company and shoulder the responsibilities that should belong to you.You always think that I should be very resistant to your company's affairs, but it is not the case. As early as the moment you told me, I knew that I might be free in the near future.
I'm leaving to live my own life, and I wish you the best of yours.
I also wish us good-bye as strangers.
Of course, it's best not to say goodbye.
It was signed by Chen Zhouhe, and the three characters were written solemnly and forcefully.
Stranger.
don't say goodbye.
These were the last words Chen Zhouhe left for him.
Xie Gui clutched the photo tightly, a vague sob overflowed from her throat, like a huge wave bursting a bank, and finally she couldn't cry.
"Don't...Chen Zhouhe, Chen Zhouhe..." Xie Gui stuck the photo on his chest, as if that was the only way to cherish the handwriting and its owner.
The spring rain outside the window was getting thicker, Xie Gui choked with red eyes in the sound of the rain, and finally called out the name he hadn't called for a long time: "Brother..."
Han Ren always felt that it was a wrong decision for him to be friends with Xie Gui.
This thought was especially strong when he slapped Xie Gui's number again.
"Hello..." Xie Gui's voice was hoarse and weak, which seriously made Han Ren feel that this guy was going to go west in a second.
"I said it's okay, brother," Han couldn't bear it, "Come out for a gathering?"
"No..." Xie Gui didn't even think about it.
"It's just the two of us, if you have anything to say to your brother, I'll help you see if you can come up with an idea." Han Ren persuaded him, "It's been three days and I won't answer your calls. You're going to scare someone to death ?”
It's useless, Xie Gui curled up on Chen Zhouhe's bed, sniffing the subtle breath of Chen Zhouhe on the quilt.
It's useless to say anything, Chen Zhouhe doesn't want him anymore.
His brother doesn't want him anymore.
Xie Gui rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, the three days of ignorance made his eyes sore and painful.
"Hello? Hello!" Han Ren took down the phone and took a look to make sure that he didn't hang up the phone. He sighed and resorted to his trump card, "My buddy has heard about Brother Chen, so you can tell me whether you want to listen or not."
There was no movement at first, then there was a rustle, Xie Gui's tone was unprecedentedly urgent: "Where is it?"
Han Ren clicked his tongue and gave an address.
The moon and stars were scarce, Xie Gui followed the navigation to find the address given by Han Ren - a very secluded bar.
Seeing him for the first time, Han Ren almost didn't recognize him.
His eye sockets were sunken, his eyebrows were haggard, his beard was unshaven, and his face was as white as if he had just been dug out of the earth.
Is this still his flamboyant brother?
"No, why did you get mixed up like this these days?" Han Ren couldn't understand, and ordered him a glass of low-alcohol fruit wine, "What happened?"
Xie Gui didn't have much strength, so she told him the matter in a low voice.
Han Ren's expression changed again and again following Xie Gui's description, and finally put on a pain mask, and took a sip of wine to suppress his shock.
But facing Xie Gui's pitiful and nervous dog eyes, which were filled with the hope of "Can I still be saved", he kept saying those words in his throat, such as "scum", "can't be saved", "wait for death" "Farewell" swallowed back.
"So that means, Brother Chen is sincere to you..." Han Ren said with emotion, "I said before, if he is really motivated by profit, how can he do that? It's easy to see whether he has intentions or not. .”
"I failed him." Xie Gui lowered his eyes.
"It's not all your fault, after all, no one would have thought about Jiang Zhuye." Han Ren patted him on the shoulder, "Then what are your plans now?"
When he asked this, Xie Gui was taken aback.
He hadn't had time to think about it yet.
Seeing his expression, Han Ren understood, and sighed: "I didn't say that, Xie Gui, you are really well raised by Brother Chen, you don't understand anything like a little canary, adults have the way of adults , look at Brother Chen, even if he is humiliated by you so much, he can still make you look like he doesn't care at all. Even if he gets to this point and can't stay any longer, he should deal with everything decently before leaving... "
Xie Gui squeezed the wine glass tightly and said nothing. After a long time, he said with difficulty: "Please explain clearly."
He really doesn't understand a lot of things, and even more ignorant of the ways of the world, but now he wants to understand, he wants to know what he missed.
"Let me ask you, if it were you, from Chen Zhouhe's point of view, what would you do if you were leaving that day?" Han Ren finished speaking, without waiting for him to answer, "Don't ask, just you Breaking your temper, when you think about enduring this idiot Xie Gui in the future, even if you never see him again in the future, you are not afraid that he will seek revenge on you. You must punch someone to vent your anger when you go up. You never hold back your anger. People are used to you, it has always been like this, right?"
"Including what happened until now, you just locked yourself up, didn't you think about going to make up for the wrong things you did?"
"Thought about it," Xie Gui lowered her head, "I want to go to him, apologize to him, I want him to come back."
"What about after you come back? Take care of your food and daily life like a nanny. You have to wait on you when you come home from working as a cow and horse in the company. I don't take you to such a troublesome person." Han couldn't help complaining, "It's like high school brother Chen who ran away from home. You only care about whether he will come back, whether he will return to your side, you never cared why he left."
Xie Gui: "..."
"Besides, if you just want Brother Chen to live a good life, why do you have to come back? He is now pursuing his own life. No matter what, he is definitely happier than staying by your side. Why do you have to be happy when he is happy?" Forcing him to come back? After all, you are just a habit, you are just used to his existence."
"No," Xie Gui raised her head, blank eyes flashed across her eyes, "it's not a habit, I...I feel bad, when I think of him being so disappointed because I was so sad, I feel bad."
Han Ren paused, and looked at Xie Gui with a strange look: "I remember you told me before that the person you like is Jiang Zhuye."
Xie Gui didn't know how his topic changed so quickly, and raised his eyes in doubt: "What's wrong?"
"There's something wrong with you," Han Ren suddenly felt dizzy. This problem was more difficult to deal with than he imagined. He asked incredulously, "Do you really think you like Jiang Zhuye?"
Xie Gui: "...I don't know."
In the past, when Jiang Zhuye was still by his side, Xie Gui always liked to cling to him, because they shared the same views and shared the same interests, and in Lan Xiuzhi's words, it was "to be in trouble".
Unlike Chen Zhou and the boss who restrained him and told him what to do and what not to do, he was completely relaxed in front of Jiang Zhuye.
Xie Gui has always felt that this is liking.
"Let me ask you," Han Ren leaned over and tentatively said, "You said you like Jiang Zhuye, so do you want to kiss him? Do you think a lot of romantic things with him? Do you... think What about him?"
Xie Gui seemed to be stepped on the tail: "How, how is it possible?!"
He and Jiang Zhuye!
Xie Gui imagined that scene and found it unacceptable. Even when they were in the best relationship, if they were asked to kiss, Xie Gui would feel goosebumps, and probably would die of laughter just by looking at each other.
"Then from another angle, would you think of Chen Zhouhe like this?" Han Ren asked again.
Xie Gui was silent.
In an instant, his brain that had been useless for three days became brighter, and it helped him recall Chen Zhouhe's waist, his watery peach blossom eyes...
And the last time they were drunk, their kiss.
Xie Gui actually had a secret, which no one told.
When Chen Zhou and lived together to prepare for the college entrance examination, the school held a high school mobilization meeting, and gave them an afternoon to relax after the meeting.
He was taken by some friends that day, saying that he was looking for something good, but it turned out to be something about men and women. He probably saw that Xie Gui was absent-minded. That friend obviously misunderstood him, so he slapped him on the chest very righteously, and changed his type .
Xie Gui opened the door to the new world, which caused him to look at Chen Zhouhe in the wrong way that night.
Chen Zhouhe came out of the bathroom, looked at him while wiping his hair, and asked him what's wrong with suspicious eyes, Xie Gui's eyes fell on his two calves that were exposed outside.
Beautiful, straight, and resilient.
That night he had a dream.
He didn't speak, and Han Ren probably guessed it. He didn't want to be too exaggerated, but he couldn't help it: "I'm sure, you really...you..."
"How can there be such a stupid person," Han Ren complained sincerely, "he can even mistake the person he likes..."
Xie Gui woke up like a dream, with a pair of deep downcast eyes staring round.
It turns out that the person he has always liked is Chen Zhouhe...
"Then it's going to be difficult for you. If you're just feeling guilty about your brother, it's okay. After you find someone, admit your mistake. Brother Chen's measure should not be bothered with you, but I think he will treat you as close as before. It's definitely not possible, after all, don't say that he didn't kill Jiang Zhuye, and his parents didn't kill your parents, even if he did, what he did for you is enough for you to repay your kindness for three lifetimes." Han Ren clicked tut twice , "You just like him... Unless Chen Ge Stockholm, otherwise..."
"How about otherwise?"
"Think about it for yourself, the person you like, you treat him with all your heart and soul, fearing that he will be cold, fearing that he will be hot, fearing that he will be unhappy, and coaxing him at ease. Your friend beat you to death, causing you to have a high fever and get into a car accident, do you still like that he is not sick?" Han Ren talked quickly, seeing Xie Gui's paler and paler face, he stopped in time and sighed , "Did I tell you earlier, don't be too extreme in everything, just look at what you did..." Call it a human thing?
"I know I was wrong," Xie Gui's eyes warmed up again, and she whispered, "I want to treat him well, just like he treats me..."
"You'd better find him first," Han Ren said, "I asked someone to check. Brother Chen should be in country E now. I don't have the specific address. It's so big, I will continue to help you find it. You... just let fate .”
Xie Gui sniffled.
"By the way, are you still going to the company?" Han Ren said.
"Go," Xie Gui's voice gradually became firmer, "I've made up my mind. If he doesn't like going to the company, I'll go. I'll do whatever he doesn't like. He can do whatever he wants, and I'll tell him later." He's doing it, and I, I want to make him happy."
They were already engaged, almost, almost, he could give Chen Zhouhe such a life.
In just a few days after leaving Chen Zhou and Bibi, Xie Gui finally understood what he had missed. Unfortunately...
The man who cast him the ivory tower no longer wanted him.
Xie Gui couldn't imagine that if Chen Zhouhe liked him, then when he did those things and said those things...
Chen Zhouhe should be so sad.
Looking at the back of Xie Gui leaving, Han Ren shook his head: "Love..."
This kind of life lasted for two years. Xie Gui graduated successfully and was admitted to Chen Zhou and his alma mater as a graduate student. He lived the same life as he used to. The second existence with an itchy tooth, while taking the class Chen Zhouhe had attended, walked the campus he had walked.
He began to become more tactful, and his words and deeds became more measured.
In the past two years, he never gave up looking for Chen Zhouhe.
In their chat box, the messages he sent to Chen Zhouhe didn't reach the end at all. Although he knew that Chen Zhouhe might no longer use this phone number, Xie Gui still stubbornly sent it every day.
He was doing what Chen Zhouhe had done before, and he seemed to understand Chen Zhouhe's feelings back then.
Like redemption, but also like a faint hope.
It seemed that as long as he waved desperately on the spot, the person in front turned around with a trace of pity, and he could see it.
Unlike him, Chen Zhouhe lives like a fish in water.
Li Ye squeezed through the crowded crowd, panting heavily, approached the most primitive and elegant tea house on this street, and found a place to sit down with ease.
"Brother Li, are you here again?" The boy who did the odd job saw his eyes lit up, "I'll call Brother Chen."
"Is he still sleeping?" Li Ye asked incredulously.
"That's not right, recently... what about sorting out the books?" The young man smiled awkwardly.
"Stop making excuses for him. He's the only one who's still sorting out the books. Let's put it down. You say he's going to the bar for a night and Dicky is more reliable than that."
"Stop spreading rumors about me." Chen Zhouhe walked down the stairs to Li, yawned, his peachy eyes were slanted, "Xiao Zhao, serve a pot of good tea."
"Okay, Brother Chen." The young man walked away in a hurry.
"I'm convinced too. How did you come to the idea of opening a tea house under this broken mountain? You don't know that there are scenic spots on this broken mountain. Every time I come, I'm crowded like a thousand-layer cake." Li Ye took two sips of water, He touched his mouth and said.
"I'm convinced too, why do you choose the peak tourist season every time you come here, and the street can be haunted in the off-season here." Chen Zhouhe sat down opposite him, resting his arms on the carved window sill and looking down.
He has a beautiful complexion, and in addition to the fact that he hasn't been under any pressure in the past two years, his demeanor around him has become sluggish, his bright eyes are shining, and his face is like a peach blossom. Just holding on like this, many people below are looking at him.
"Brother Chen, there are a lot of people coming to order again. I will make do with the difference between you and Brother Li at this table." Xiao Zhao came up to greet them, and served them a pot of warm tea.
"Go ahead, treat them well, your boss tricked you with her beauty." Chen Zhouhe raised his chin, and felt even more shameless at Li Ye's rather speechless expression, "I really just sit like this Everything becomes a landscape alone.”
Li Ye's face looked as if he had eaten pig food: "I still miss your slapstick look in high school."
Chen Zhouhe smiled slightly: "Then you should miss it well, and miss it for me too."
With his smile, more people screamed downstairs. There were a few bold little girls who took out their mobile phones to take pictures. Chen Zhouhe cooperated very well and even tilted his head slightly towards the camera.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
"Help, he's really handsome..."
"Let's go, let's go in and make tea..."
"Is it really tea you want to make?"
"Brother Chen," Xiao Zhao ran up with a bitter face, "Can you stop sitting by the window, there are not enough seats downstairs, you two should make room for the guests."
Xiao Zhao was so emboldened by Chen Zhouhe's habit, he picked up the teapot and pulled Chen Zhouhe up, forcing them to change places.
"You are the boss... aggrieved." Li Ye shook his head.
"You know what a fart," Chen Zhouhe said, standing on the edge of the railing, and shouting to the people below, "Everyone...everyone! Thanks to everyone who doesn't dislike you, come to our teahouse and have a sit. Friends, look for the handsome guy who took your order, this afternoon's ladies and brothers will all get a [-]% discount."
After finishing speaking, Chen Zhouhe thought for a while: "The ones that are particularly good-looking can be exempted."
"How can it be considered particularly beautiful..."
"Yeah yeah……"
"I don't want a free order, but can I ask the boss's WeChat account?"
Chen Zhou and Guan Sha didn't care about burying them, like an oiran, making everyone downstairs restless. He leisurely hid in the small attic, dug out his stock, and made a cup of tea for Li Ye.
"The conscience of heaven and earth, I'm so fucking moved, you actually made me tea yourself." Li Ye sighed.
"The boss makes it himself. It's not too much to charge you twice the price, right?" Chen Zhouhe asked him.
"You give the girls downstairs a [-]% discount, and I get twice the price?" Li Ye squinted at him, "Black hearted stuff."
"Can you be as cute as a girl?" Chen Zhouhe took a sip of tea, "You can be as cute as a little girl, my boss will make it for you, and I'll just work for you."
Li Ye: "..." Doggy!I shouldn't have rescued you from the fire pit in the first place!
"You don't go to my Three Treasures Hall if you have nothing to do, tell me what's going on," Chen Zhouhe said, "How is Jiang Zhuye?"
"He still runs around like usual," Li Ye restrained his expression, "He asked me to tell you, be careful recently, Xie Gui and his friends should find out that you are no longer in country E."
Li Ye thought that Chen Zhouhe would be surprised, or be silent.
But he looked relaxed, as if hearing news from a stranger.
"Really? I heard that he went to country E for vacation every two years?"
"Vacation is fake, so looking for you is the real thing." Li Ye didn't have a good impression of Xie Gui, "I really don't understand, what is he trying to do, can he look for you for two years?"
"I don't understand either." Chen Zhouhe stretched his waist, "After he looks for another two years, he should be able to give up, and then find a place to play for a while."
Li Ye was speechless for two seconds, and his eyes were complicated: "You have a big heart."
He wanted to continue complaining, but the back of his foot was heavy, and Li Ye was so frightened that his hairs stood on end on the spot, and he almost jumped out of the window.
"Take, take away! Quick! Take it away!" He pointed at the innocent kitten on the ground and shouted.
Chen Zhouhe clicked his tongue, picked up the little puppet on the ground, hugged it in his arms, and said "progress".
"It's the first time I've seen someone afraid of cats." Chen Zhouhe couldn't believe it.
"You are a cat who has never seen a rainforest, and I will kill you with one paw..." Li Ye patted his chest and rolled his eyes.
The two chatted casually, and the topic returned to the original.
"So you are not afraid that he will find you?" Li Ye asked him.
"Why should I be afraid of him?" Chen Zhouhe looked at him with a strange look, "It's not me who did the wrong thing, besides... we will meet sooner or later."
Li Ye:? !
Chen Zhouhe sighed: "Two days ago, grandma called me."
When Chen Zhouhe left, he went to see Lan Xiuzhi. Although he was tired of the life at that time, Lan Xiuzhi still did not forget Chen Zhouhe's kindness to him.
He left Lan Xiuzhi a phone number, saying that he could call him if there was anything, but usually he would not answer the phone.
Lan Xiuzhi kept her promise and helped him hide it from Xie Gui, which is why Xie Gui couldn't find out his whereabouts after two years of investigation.
But just last week, Lan Xiuzhi called him for the first time.
The doctor said that her condition was becoming more and more unstable, and it was only a year at most.The confrontation between Xie Ziqian and Xie Gui in the company became more and more intense, and anyone with a discerning eye could see the discord between them.
"She still wants you to help Xie Gui?" Li Ye couldn't believe it, "How can she speak?"
"I haven't agreed to this matter yet, and I'm still thinking about it," Chen Zhouhe took a sip of tea, "To be honest, I don't really want to get involved with their family, but..."
Lan Xiuzhi's voice sounded extremely weak, her youthful vigor was weakened by her illness, and Chen Zhouhe's voice of refusal got stuck in her throat because of her old begging.
"Don't be so stupid as to agree," Li Ye knew what he was thinking just by looking at his eyes, "Don't forget how that grandson treated you back then, don't call me from the hospital bed again."
"I know that, but grandma..."
"Grandma, grandma, you fucking love her grandma all the time, who cares about you?!" Li Ye was so excited that he stood up, his eyes were slightly red.
Probably realizing that his tone was too aggressive, he suppressed his thoughts and turned his face away: "Anyway, I don't agree with this matter. If you agree, don't come to me in the future..."
After finishing speaking, regardless of Chen Zhouhe's astonished gaze, he turned around and left.
"Brother Li? Why did Brother Li leave..." Little Zhao just came up to deliver the snacks when he saw Li Ye leaving angrily. He turned to look at Chen Zhouhe with a blank expression.
"Let him go," Chen Zhouhe sighed, "The boss is in a bad mood today, so he will give free orders to all the guests downstairs."
Xiao Zhao suddenly broke his face: "You are going to lose money, ancestor..."
Chen Zhouhe chuckled: "Do you really think I make money from this small teahouse? Hurry up!"
Xiao Zhao: "..." My boss is someone else's boss without telling me? !
"Xie Gui, this year the team will go on a trip, do you want to go together?" The girl in the same group plucked up the courage to go to Xie Gui with the encouragement of everyone, and showed him the phone screen, "I checked the guide and said yes A lot of fun."
Xie Gui smiled and shook her head, just about to refuse, her eyes were attracted by a photo.
The person in the photo is leaning against the carved window sill, looking down with a lazy brow and a smile, as if he sensed that someone was taking a sneak shot, he tilted his head slightly and smiled at the camera.
That face appeared in Xie Gui's dreams countless times...
His Adam's apple rolled up and down, he almost lost his voice, his eyes were fixed on the photo, and his thick eyelashes trembled slightly.
Chen Zhou and...
It's Chen Zhouhe!
