The Melancholy of a Third-Rate Writer

Kara -

The door opened.

Gu Ping looked up, it was a young man with a serious face, about 30 years old, he looked seven or eight years older than him, but his aura was more majestic than all his elders.

This is not an exaggeration, the main reason is that he was born in a nouveau riche family, his parents were from grass roots, and he was not strict with the younger generation.To make matters worse, his birth name was not right - he was an illegitimate child.

To be precise, he was the son of the woman his father raised before he met his true love.At that time, his mother wanted to use him to tie up his father, but instead of being threatened by her, his father said, "I will raise you when you are born; if you kill me, I will give you money—you choose yourself." .

It has to be said that his father was a man who had licked blood on the tip of a knife, and his actions were straightforward and ruthless enough.His mother didn't want to leave his father with a sum of money, and she still had delusions about wanting the so-called love—from her constant chatter, Gu Ping knew how she and his father met and fell in love—or rather, The process of her falling in love with his father.In her eyes, his father was a great hero who saved her from fire and water.

It's a pity that in his father's eyes, she is just something he bought to play with, and he can't think about the position of "wife".

His father was never seen again after throwing down two options.

His mother had a miserable life during those days, and even his health was not very good after he was born.In order to take care of him, his mother finally cheered up and tried every means to help him recuperate.During this time, his father met the love of his life.

His father is married.

At that time, he was already two years old, and his mother took him by the side of the wedding to watch the grand wedding banquet from afar.

His mother told him: "From now on, our mother and son can only depend on each other for life."

He said ignorantly, "Isn't it just us all the time? Could there be someone else?"

His mother cried bitterly.

When he started school, Gu Ping gradually realized that his family was different from other children.

He wasn't bullied because he was always well-behaved and got along well with other people, only a little confused when they mentioned the word "Dad", but he had developed a good habit of observing more when he didn't understand, So I didn't ask others, but judged what the term "Dad" represented from other people's conversations.

Gu Ping quickly understood.

Stands for "buy a car", "spank", "go to an amusement park", etc.

His mother can do all these things, so why do you need another "father"?Gu Ping calmly accepted the fact that he did not have a father.

Unexpectedly, as soon as Gu Ping figured it out, his father came to the door.Because his beloved wife died in childbirth, his son needed a mother.

For Gu Ping at this time, the term "father" represented "predator".

He wants to change his name to call his mother "Auntie" and call the person who is his father "Uncle" by blood.

Gu Ping doesn't understand why other people have such an expression of gratitude to you.

He didn't like this big house, he didn't like the man who made his mother cry, but when he saw his mother crying with joy, Gu Ping obediently called: "Uncle, aunt."

His mother loves his "cousin" as her own son.

Because this "cousin" has completed the mission he failed to complete, "cousin" needs a mother and a complete family, so his father married his mother into the house.

It's just that his "bargaining chip" used to threaten his father, his father would not look straight at it.A person like his father, who used to be on fire, hates being coerced the most.

Gu Ping was a little jealous of his "cousin" at first, but he got used to it after a while.Sometimes he would look at his mother who was playing with his cousin in a daze, because he had never seen her smile so happily.

As long as mother is happy, nothing else matters at all.

Gu Ping's grades have always been excellent, compared to his cousin, who can't keep up.His father often used him to beat his cousin, so that the cousin looked at him more and more dissatisfied, and his behavior became more and more rebellious.

In the eyes of his cousin, he is an outsider in this family.Occasionally, when his mother greeted him with care, his cousin would stare at him angrily, as if he had robbed his mother.

Gu Ping couldn't help but laugh, thinking that his cousin's nervous appearance was quite funny.

The night before an exam, he suddenly fell ill.The next day, he was dizzy and was about to go out for the exam, but he was stopped by his cousin who had been staring at him since he had breakfast.

The cousin said angrily: "You are so sick, do you still want to take the exam? What are the grades, the body is the capital of the revolution!"

Seeing the awkward concern in his cousin's eyes, Gu Ping was stunned and collapsed without warning.

When he opened his eyes again, he saw his cousin's nervous face.

Gu Ping suddenly realized that this was his younger brother, his own younger brother—although he was not very close, but he was still connected in the end.

Gu Ping smiled and thanked his cousin.

The cousin blushed, and said awkwardly: "I'm afraid my mother will scold me! I didn't deliberately guard you! Take medicine, drink more hot water and sleep more!"

After speaking, the cousin ran away in a hurry.

Gu Ping finally had a sense of belonging to "home".

His performance is getting better and better, so good that his father is willing to let him work in the company.The cousin was envious and jealous, and would come here to tease him from time to time. Gu Ping knew that his parents treated his cousin as a baby bump, so he would only tease him when this kind of cousin came up to him.

Even so, his father paid attention.

His father approached him and asked, "What do you think about your cousin?"

Gu Ping said: "He is my cousin, your son, uncle, I see him as my younger brother."

His father stared at him, and Gu Ping looked back calmly.

Finally, his father moved his lips for a long time before he said a word: "I really don't know who you look like."

Gu Ping didn't reply.

He is indeed not like his simple mother, nor is he like the man in front of him. He spent most of his growing up observing and pondering. middle.

His camouflage skills are top-notch.

Gu Ping knew that his father was worried about "brothers fighting against the wall", and he felt a little funny in his heart. He never had the idea of ​​being overwhelmed.He doesn't want too much money, he doesn't want too much power, he just wants to watch his mother live happily.

What he wanted couldn't be simpler.

It's a pity that this balance is still broken: the cousin made trouble at school, and the father was very angry, and when he got home, he blamed his mother.

The two had a quarrel, and in the quarrel brought out the cousin's biological mother.

Gu Ping saw his cousin standing outside his parents' room with an expression of disbelief.

The cousin heard it.

Cousin knows.

The cousin turned around and saw him, gouged him out, and ran away with red eyes.

The cousin became more and more rebellious.

Father was helpless.

Gu Ping said: "He has always hated me, why don't you let me try."

His father gave him a surprised look.

Gu Ping said: "The more he hates me, the more he can't stand being overwhelmed by me, and he may mess around for a while at first. When he has a sense of crisis, he will definitely work hard to make progress." Seeing that his father seemed to be a little shaken, he took the initiative Added, "I can sign an agreement and promise not to have the slightest thought about the company."

His father looked at him with complicated eyes: "What do you want?"

Gu Ping said: "I only have one request, please treat my mother well—she is now your wife, a legitimate wife."

Gu Ping turned around and was about to go out, when he suddenly met his mother's tearful eyes.

Gu Ping paused, and reached out to give his mother a hug. This was the first time he took the initiative to get close to his mother in so many years.Not that he wanted to seek comfort from his mother, but to comfort this poor woman trapped in love.

He didn't need others to give him comfort and warmth for a long time.

Gu Ping officially joined the company and became his father's right-hand man.

And three days ago, the company encountered a crisis, which was almost a disaster for grassroots like them.

At this time, someone set up a bridge for him, saying that a big man is willing to help him, as long as he pays a little price.

The matchmaker made a veiled mention that the big shot liked men.

Gu Ping thought it was a little funny: he never knew that he was so valuable.

Gu Ping readily agreed and went to the appointment as scheduled.

He was surprised by the youth and excellence of the other party. With such conditions, who could not find him, and paid such a high price to find him?

Probably because I don't want to talk about feelings, I would rather spend some money to reduce trouble.

Gu Ping can roughly infer the other party's temper from the other party's expression, and he is even more convinced that his guess is accurate.He showed a faint smile and said hello politely: "Hi, are you Mr. Qin?"

Mr. Qin nodded, then grabbed his chin and looked at his face, as if evaluating a commodity.This was not Gu Ping's subjective feeling, because Mr. Qin even used his fingers to signal him to turn his head to the side, and looked at it carefully for a while.

It looked as if he wanted to find another person's shadow in his face.

It turned out that he satisfied Mr. Qin.

Mr. Qin ordered him to take a bath.

Gu Ping has never thought about whether he likes men or women. After the matchmaker vaguely mentioned what he needs to do, he deliberately searched for what he should do.In order to save himself from suffering, he picked up the lubricating fluid he brought over to help him expand first, and walked out wrapped in a bath towel.

Gu Ping saw Mr. Qin's eyes burst into flames.

Before Gu Ping had time to react, he was already pressed on the bed.

When he found out that he had done the expansion himself, Mr. Qin's face was not very good.Looking at Mr. Qin's ugly face, Gu Ping could vaguely guess that Mr. Qin was angry.For this kind of male chauvinist guy, he definitely doesn't like "second-hand goods". He behaves so "familiarly", which will inevitably make Mr. Qin have bad associations.

Gu Ping thought about what the shy expression should look like, put it on his face, and explained, "I followed the online tutorial, is there anything wrong?"

Mr. Qin was really satisfied.

It's a pity that his movements didn't go lightly, every collision was astonishingly ruthless, and his arms were tightly imprisoning him, as if he wanted to rub him into his body.

Gu Ping was thinking about other things in his heart.

This person has someone in his heart—that person should look a lot like him.

But the big man in front of him has the ability to reach the sky, but he still can't get the other party.

It's really impossible for everyone to have everything they want.

Gu Ping has always been good at finding a balance, and after he felt a little pity for Mr. Qin in his heart, his cooperation became more active.

After pondering for a while, he roughly figured out Mr. Qin's preferences.

Mr. Qin likes to kiss the base of his ears, perhaps this one is the most similar to that person.

Mr. Qin didn't like his voice very much, probably because his voice was completely different from that person's.

Gu Ping firmly remembered these two points.

After receiving such great benefits, after-sales service must be done well.

This is what a businessman should do.

Mr. Qin was obviously very satisfied with him, and the company's plight was quickly resolved.

Mr. Qin asked him for a phone number and said, "Come over when I call you."

Gu Ping didn't speak, but nodded obediently.

Mr. Qin left.

Gu Ping's life was no different from the past, but his father asked him a few questions, wanting to know how the crisis was resolved.

Gu Ping didn't mention much, and said lightly: "Someone introduced me to a good friend."

Seeing that he couldn't ask anything, his father waved his hand and let him go to work.

In the evening, Gu Ping received a call from a stranger, and the other party said in a business-like tone, "Hello, Mr. Gu, I am Mr. Qin's secretary. If you have any difficulties or needs, you can contact me directly."

Gu Ping knew that this meant that he could get help from the other party to a limited extent, so he smiled slightly and said, "Okay, thank you."

He likes this clear, mutually beneficial relationship.
