The Melancholy of a Third-Rate Writer

Mr. Qin closed the book in his hand.

Gu Ping's cell phone rang, and Mr. Qin picked it up to see that it was an unfamiliar name.He pressed the answer button, and the other party asked: "Why didn't you come? Such a good place is reserved for you, and you are so wasted. Don't you know that a small shop like ours does one or two orders a day? Several groups of people asked Is there anyone in my box?"

Mr. Qin felt that the other party was a bit noisy, but subtly wanted the other party to say more, so that he could understand Gu Ping's friendship situation.

Unexpectedly, the other party reacted quickly: "Aren't you Gu Ping? Are you that kid from his family?"

Mr. Qin frowned.

He said: "No."

The cold voice froze there.

Mr. Qin asked: "How do you know it's not him?"

The other side answered very straightforwardly: "What's so hard to admit! If Gu Ping, he would definitely not let me stand in the cold. After connecting, he would not say a word."

Mr. Qin paused, and then asked: "Who is his kid?" Although he roughly guessed who the other party was talking about, Mr. Qin still wanted to confirm for no reason.

Only then did he become alert: "Are you...?"

Mr. Qin said: "My surname is Qin, and he invited me to dinner today."

The other side responded with "Oh" twice, and said: "Isn't his kid just the kid surnamed Xu, who went abroad for a few years of gold plating, but came back still frizzy, Gu Ping is very special to him, teach me There are quite a few of them, for which Da Xu has always had a lot of opinions and would often complain to us."

Mr. Qin said, "What are you complaining about?"

The other side said: "Complain about Gu Ping helping that kid, Da Xu really hates that kid, because that kid is a wild... It's the seed that Da Xu's father made outside, you know. Don't talk about this, Gu Ping Why is your phone here? Can you still come over?"

Mr. Qin glanced at the sleeping Gu Ping, and said, "Not today, you keep the box tomorrow, and I will go there with him tomorrow."

The other side agreed: "Okay, I will keep it for you."

Mr. Qin hung up the phone, wanted to get out of bed and go to another room, and was afraid that Gu Ping's situation would repeat itself.He thought about it, got into bed and hugged Gu Ping into his arms, closed his eyes and rested against his still slightly hot body.

Since he was ten years old, he hadn't slept in the same bed with anyone like this.Gu Ping's steady heartbeat was very clear in the dark room, and his warm snort puffed on his chest, itching, making him feel a strange yet familiar agitation.

Mr. Qin moved his eyes down, looking at Gu Ping's sleeping face.There seemed to be little such peace between them. Most of the time, Gu Ping ended up lying on the bed exhausted, as if he could no longer bear the slightest demands.

That was the most common look in Mr. Qin's memories of Gu Ping, weak, obedient, and humble.

That's not something you can pretend, so Mr. Qin has always believed in it.

Among Gu Ping's various disguises, there are always some things that cannot be faked.It was because he had no intention to distinguish before that he felt that he had been fooled.In reality the man was just doing what he needed to do - and doing it so well that he didn't even realize it.

If he hadn’t accidentally realized that Gu Ping seemed to be at the age when he should start a family, and he began to consider whether to let Gu Ping go or keep Gu Ping, he would probably still be very satisfied with the “service” provided by Gu Ping—yes, Serve.For Gu Ping, it was just service.

Provide services according to the needs of customers without faults.

Damn can't fault it.

At least at that time, when he was considering the issue of "let it go or keep it", it took less than half a second to veto the previous option, and personally asked Secretary He to give the Gu family more sweetness.He knew how Gu Ping would choose, even if it had to be tied with the word "Qin Family", Gu Ping would not miss this opportunity.

Gu Ping has always been a smart businessman, he knows better than anyone how to choose what is best for the Gu family.

Mr. Qin didn't fall asleep, staring at Gu Ping until it was bright.

When the morning sun shone into the room, Mr. Qin could clearly see Gu Ping's eyelashes moving.

This was a wonderful experience for Mr. Qin: a person woke up from his arms, with unsuspecting confusion and laziness on his face and eyes.The breath is very close to the breath, and the heart is also very close to the heart, as if they are more intimate than any relationship.

Unfortunately, this ambiguous atmosphere did not last long.

Gu Ping frowned and woke up suddenly.

Gu Ping opened his mouth in surprise: "...you..."

Mr. Qin bowed his head and kissed his forehead.

Gu Ping was slightly taken aback.

Mr. Qin said, "Are you all right?"

Gu Ping said, "It's all right."

Mr. Qin got out of bed and got dressed, took out another set from the closet and gave it to Gu Ping: "Go take a bath?"

Gu Ping was taken aback, and said, "Okay."

Mr. Qin stood where he was and waited for Gu Ping to come over to pick up his clothes.

Even though his footsteps were a little unsteady, Gu Ping still straightened his back.The first few steps were a bit difficult, but then he calmed down. He calmly walked to Mr. Qin to take the clothes, gave Mr. Qin a thankful smile, walked into the bathroom on the side and closed the door.

Since Mr. Qin is interested in observing, how could he miss every change in Gu Ping.It was really too intense yesterday in the car, even after a night of sleep, he still hadn't fully recovered, just now Gu Ping was halfway there, his forehead was already sweating.

However, no matter how uncomfortable his body was, Gu Ping could still laugh at him.

Amazing endurance.

Mr. Qin frowned.

He knew about Gu Ping's life experience. Gu Ping was Gu's father's nephew, both of his parents died, and he was fostered in Gu's father's house.This can explain Gu Ping's gratitude to the Gu family, it can explain Gu Ping's character, and it can even explain Gu Ping's sacrifice and forbearance, but he always feels something is wrong.

He couldn't tell exactly what was wrong, but his intuition told him there must be something wrong.

If the relationship between Gu Ping and the Gu family is really that deep, the Gu family must have treated him well, right?

Then what happened to the almost desperate pain that Gu Ping showed from time to time?

Mr. Qin thought for a while, went outside the room and called Secretary He.

The weekend is not a working day, but Secretary He still received the call immediately.He asked, "what's the matter, Mr. Qin?"

Mr. Qin said: "Help me find out about the affairs of Gu Ping's family."

Secretary He was a little surprised.

Mr. Qin said, "Is there a problem?"

Secretary He said: "No." He replied in a business-like tone, "Actually, I checked before greeting Mr. Gu for the first time. You know, we can never ignore this aspect."

Of course, Mr. Qin knew what Secretary He was referring to.

The higher the person who chooses their path goes, the more cautious they should be. If someone with problems is tied to the chariot, the consequences will be unimaginable.

Mr. Qin said, "How much do you remember?"

Secretary He said: "The Gu family was not very innocent before they started their business, but they have been washed and landed a few years ago. There is nothing wrong with that. It is Mr. Gu's own life experience that is a bit problematic - the people who are said to be his parents died more recently. Early, in fact, no descendants were left behind. And Mr. Gu’s uncle did not marry the current wife when he got married. According to various clues, Gu Ping was actually brought over by the current wife. It has been too long to understand I think Mr. Gu's uncle felt ashamed to raise a son for others, so he declared Mr. Gu to be his nephew."

Mr. Qin said, "Have you talked to him about this?"

Secretary He said: "No, I didn't investigate further after making sure that the Gu family was fine. After all, this is a sad thing for Mr. Gu."

Mr. Qin said: "Don't mention it in the future."

Secretary He said: "I understand." After finishing speaking, he hung up the phone without saying a word.

Mr. Qin has always been very satisfied with Secretary He's knowledge.

He pushed open the door and walked in. Gu Ping just came out after taking a shower and getting dressed.Mr. Qin looked at Gu Ping's wet hair, waved to Gu Ping, and signaled Gu Ping to sit down.

Mr. Qin took out the hair dryer to help Gu Ping dry his hair.

Gu Ping didn't know what kind of medicine was sold in Mr. Qin's gourd, so he could only obediently let Mr. Qin toss about it.

Mr. Qin's left hand shuttled back and forth in Gu Ping's black hair, feeling the soft touch between his fingers. At the same time, his eyes glanced over Gu Ping's eyebrows from time to time, and without any surprise, he caught the confusion and joy in Gu Ping's eyes that was tried so hard to hide. alert.

How do you feel like it?This kind of look of vigilance even though he is obedient and obedient, how could it appear on that person's face.

Mr. Qin said: "Your friend called after you fell asleep."

Gu Ping suddenly remembered that he asked someone to reserve a box yesterday, and said, "I forgot to talk to him, I will call back later."

Mr. Qin turned off the hair dryer: "I have already connected it for you."

Gu Ping paused.

Mr. Qin raised his eyebrows: "Can't you take it?"

Gu Ping said: "No, I just don't think this is like Mr. Qin's style."

Mr. Qin straightened his hair for him, and said with a bit of interest in his tone, "What kind of person do you think I am?"

He is indifferent and harsh, with a tough style, ruthless means, and unreasonable.

This is the description that popped up in Gu Ping's mind.

He tried his best to keep his expression normal: "You are a calm and wise decision maker."

Mr. Qin held the back of Gu Ping's head with his hands, making Gu Ping look up at himself: "Does the 'decision-making' of the decision-maker include deciding your life?" A tiger that bites off the neck of its prey.

Gu Ping froze slightly.

Mr. Qin said: "Gu Ping, answer me—including deciding your life?"

Gu Ping's tone was difficult: "...Including."

Mr. Qin smiled: "Very well, remember what you said." He lowered his head and pressed it to Gu Ping's lips, ambiguous and intimate, "At the same time, remember one thing well - what I want, will never let go.”

Gu Ping teased: "You are really domineering."

Mr. Qin said: "You should know me better than anyone else." He stood up and changed the subject, "I asked your friend to save the box, can you drive?"

Thinking of what happened in the car yesterday, the smile on Gu Ping's face faltered for a moment.Then he said, "Of course."

Of course, Mr. Qin could see Gu Ping's reluctance, but he didn't point it out. Instead, he handed Gu Ping his coat and motioned him to go out together.

Gu Ping interpreted Mr. Qin's unusual behavior as "guilt".

Mr. Qin condescended to show his kindness, and Gu Ping felt that he had no reason to be concerned about it—for a person like Mr. Qin, it is already very good to have a meal with him.

Gu Ping figured it out, and sped up his pace a little to keep up with Mr. Qin.He introduced to Mr. Qin: "The restaurant is opened by my friend. His restaurant is a bit out of the way, but it is very interesting. For example, in order to drive up the price of the restaurant I ordered, he rented out the mountain behind— —Just to embody the theme of 'exclusive mountain view'. Others don't know, anyway, a layman like me thinks it's pretty good."

Mr. Qin commented: "It sounds okay."

Gu Ping said: "Of course, the most important thing is delicious food. My friend is an excellent cook, but few people can invite him to cook for himself."

Mr. Qin said: "Then I have to try it out."

Gu Ping said: "He is not a qualitative person, he speaks bluff, you'd better not believe what he said."

Mr. Qin listened to Gu Ping introduce friends to himself naturally, and looked at Gu Ping more and more deeply.

How could Gu Ping not feel Mr. Qin's gaze?

He didn't want to face Mr. Qin suddenly, and Mr. Qin would be silent for eternity without opening his mouth.It's a pity that if their relationship continues to froze, he will suffer in the end.

While driving, Gu Ping chatted casually.

Mr. Qin heard Gu Ping's reluctance, and said flatly: "Concentrate on driving."

Gu Ping understood that his performance failed again.

Gu Ping shut up obediently, and drove the car to the destination.

As expected, the mountain view room was reserved for them. Gu Ping led Mr. Qin upstairs familiarly, and called a friend to show his face.

Gu Ping's friend rushed over, originally wanting to see who the man with Gu Ping was, but was startled when he saw him.

Few people in the capital do not know "Tiger".

Gu Ping's friend's smile froze.

After a few seconds of silence, Gu Ping's friend said bluntly, "Gu Ping, come out and order some food."

Mr. Qin narrowed his eyes.

Gu Ping's friend quickly shut up.

Gu Ping said to Mr. Qin: "This guy has a lot of problems, and he is very disciplined when ordering dishes. Shall I go out with him?"

Mr. Qin nodded.

Gu Ping's friend, as if he had received an amnesty, dragged Gu Ping out.When he walked to the box next to him, Gu Ping's friend closed the door and said, "I was scared to death! Gu Ping, why did you invite this giant Buddha here? You were with him yesterday?" He looked at Gu Ping hesitantly. At a glance, "This is very dangerous."

Gu Ping said: "I think it's too late to get away."

Gu Ping's friend gave him a complicated look, and said, "You'd better find a way to get out. Let me tell you, the Qin family has a well-covered scandal. Just now, the parents had a dispute, and his mother accidentally killed him." After killing his father, he locked the door in a panic and fled. It was not until the next day that someone noticed the abnormality and rushed to open the door to let him out. That means he spent the night next to his father's body—he was only ten years old at that time! After being rescued, he calmly told the person in charge of the investigation the situation at that time, and said that there were cameras in the room to prove that what he said was true—my father was the person in charge of the investigation at the time, he said he I will never forget the feeling of shuddering at that time! It was like that at the age of ten, that guy is definitely a pervert!"

Gu Ping was stunned.

After a while, Gu Ping said: "Is it okay for you to tell me this kind of thing?"

Gu Ping's friend said: "Oh my god, don't worry about me, the important thing is to think about yourself!"

Gu Ping asked: "Do you think he is scary?"

Gu Ping's friend nodded hurriedly.

Gu Ping laughed: "Then I can't take the initiative to end it, what do you think?"

Gu Ping's friend almost laughed angrily when he heard Gu Ping's relaxed tone, and said angrily, "You can still laugh, forget it, you are always the most thoughtful, so I won't worry about it for you."

Gu Ping felt his friend's concern and thanked him with a smile: "I know you are thinking of me, don't worry, I know what to do and what not to do." A bit teasing, "You have to bring out some good dishes, so as not to offend others."
