love of life

"Because you are mine." Gu Ming's last words were extremely firm, and Lin Zexi stared at him blankly, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"I've been really tired all these years, and I just want to live a clean life. It was for this purpose that I came here."

"Xu Zhengwen has already been sentenced, and that incident has passed. Being with me will not affect your peaceful life. You can do what you like and live the life you like."

"City A has too many memories of me, and too many people know about my past."

"Xu Zhengwen went to prison, Xu Zhe went abroad, Yu Xiaoxiao was implicated in the case, was questioned for several days just like you, was detained for more than a month, and left City A after she came out. No one cares about this anymore Something happened."

"It's not about people, I want a fresh start."

"The so-called new start is going to Shanghai? You haven't given up the idea of ​​going to Shanghai until now?" Seeing his determined look, Gu Ming recalled the topic he brought up at the dinner table yesterday.

"Should go to Shanghai to stay for two or three months, and make plans later."

"Lin Zexi, after last night, you still want to go to Shanghai to find that man? Then what am I?" Lin Zexi's indifferent attitude made Gu Ming angry. He obviously already had an intimate relationship, so why did he still leave? Not near his side.

"Last night was an accident, and it hasn't changed anything. Don't take it to heart."

"Isn't it nothing to you? It's always been this indifferent face from before. Is there anything you care about?" He took a very important step for Gu Ming last night. The meaning is very important, but it is nothing to Lin Zexi.This made Gu Ming a little angry and frustrated.

"I don't care about this body for a long time." He said expressionlessly.

Gu Ming took a deep breath, exhaled slowly and said, "What about your heart? How can I get close to you?"

"Why do you want to come closer? I just want to be alone in peace."

"Since you want to be alone, why do you have to go to Shanghai to find Jiang Yu? You say you are calm and don't care about everything, but you just want to find him?"

"I'm just friends with him, as I said. I'm just here to help, it's not as complicated as you think."

"Help? He is such a rich second generation, do you still need your help? The hotel can't find a suitable chef? Do you believe such words?"

"Why do you have to think of everyone so complicated?"

"It's not that I'm complicated, it's that you are too simple. He wants you to go to Shanghai, the restaurant is facing demolition, and there is a hotel that just lacks a chef. Do you think these coincidences are God's arrangements? Everything is the best Arrangement, what about my appearance? Why don’t you regard me as an arrangement from heaven? Just because I’m straightforward, you don’t care about it, and others are playing tricks on you so that you can benefit from it?”

"What do you mean?"

"Guangzhou Century Millennium Co., Ltd., are you familiar with it?"

"Century millennium? It seems..." Lin Zexi felt a little familiar, but couldn't remember where he had heard it.

"It's the company that plans to invest in building a commercial complex here. That's why the restaurant was demolished."

"So what?" Lin Zexi faintly felt something was wrong.

Go online and search for yourself, who is the shareholder of this company in Guangzhou. " Gu Ming said with a dark face.

Lin Zexi stared at him intently, "If you already know, just tell me."

"The only shareholder of this company is Shanghai Weijian Xintian Co., Ltd. How is it? Are you familiar with it? If you are not familiar with it, you can check the shareholders of this company again."

"No need." Lin Zexi's mind suddenly exploded. This name has become a hot news in the street tabloids in the past three months.This company is one of the three companies that Jiang Yu returned to Shanghai to reorganize more than three months ago, specializing in real estate development.His face sank, how could it be Jiang Yu?Didn't he say before that he should help him guard the store?Why is he using his own company to demolish his own house now, without telling him.

"Be sober. In order to trap you by his side, he has tried his best. Everything is his trick, but you think he has good intentions." Gu Ming's attitude became aggressive, which made Lin Zexi feel uncomfortable .

"So what? At least he didn't hurt me. Even on the surface, he still respects my choice."

"I didn't hurt you, so your requirements for others are so low? It's fine if I don't hurt you, what about me? What did I do for you?" Gu Ming thought of the past six months when he was out of his mind and in pain. The gas is not smooth.

"What did you do for me? Hug me?"

This sentence fell between the two like □□, the room suddenly fell silent, and the topic ended.Gu Ming stared at him blankly, with a complex expression, mixed with shock, pain, sadness, anger and a little guilt in his eyes.But Lin Zexi just lowered his head and didn't look at him.Seeing his evasive expression, Gu Ming felt a pain in his chest, and finally didn't speak, got up and walked out of the room silently.

The sound of closing the door echoed in the room, and Lin Zexi seemed to feel the loneliness he felt when he left.The chat just now went to extremes without knowing it, and negative emotions surged, turning into verbal violence and mutual harm.He bit his lip, regretting the last sentence he just said.What happened last night, it was a bit too much to say that it was a strong hug, at most it was a push and a half.Although he was not subjectively ready to have a relationship with him, his body had already betrayed him throughout the process.After two or three years of living a life of asceticism, he almost thought that he had completely cut off his desires.As a result, he was teased so much last night that he couldn't help himself, and now I still have some aftertaste when I think about it.Lin Zexi rubbed his cheeks vigorously with both palms, trying to interrupt the annoying memories of last night.

He took out his mobile phone and called Jiang Yu.

"Hey, Zexi, how are you feeling today? Why didn't you answer my call last night?" Jiang Yu asked attentively.

"I seldom play with my mobile phone now, maybe I didn't pay attention. Let me ask you something, have you heard of the company Guangzhou Century Millennium?" Lin Zexi asked seemingly casually.

Jiang Yu on the other end of the phone was stunned for two or three seconds, and said, "I've heard it before, what's the matter?"

"The reason why the restaurant was demolished was because this company was going to build the project. The compensation standard has already come out, and there are various rewards for early relocation, but there has been no notice how long to get the money. I just want to inquire about the strength of this company. It won’t delay the progress of the demolition, right? My restaurants are all closed, if they are not demolished in the end, it will be a big loss.”

"Probably not. Although they say they want to build a project, the demolition work is now done by government departments, and companies are not directly involved. Since they have posted notices, they should be implemented in accordance with the regulations. Don't worry too much." Jiang Yu went around, but didn't mention the relationship with Century Millennium at all.

Lin Zexi didn't speak any more, Jiang Yu asked, "Zexi, what's wrong with you?"

"It's okay, do you have anything else to say?" He asked back.

"I...it's the same thing as last time, and I want to ask you to come to Shanghai to help me." Jiang Yu said seemingly embarrassed.

"..." Lin Zexi was silent for a while, and said softly: "I'm sorry, I don't think I'm used to big cities. I'll send you the money when the house here is demolished. Thank you for your time. take care of."

"Zexi, don't be like this. I told you that I won't ask you for money. You should think carefully about coming to Shanghai. If you want a new start, this is the best choice. New place, opportunity It's too much, I can still take care of you. What are you hesitating about?" Jiang Yu persuaded without giving up.

"The pace of the big city is too fast, I still want to find a leisurely place to stay."

"Whether the pace is fast or not depends on what you do. You work in a hotel and go to and from get off work every day, which is much easier than looking after a restaurant by yourself."

"It's not a matter of being relaxed or tired."

"what is that?"

"It's nothing, I just don't want to go, don't force me, okay?" Lin Zexi didn't want to continue to dwell on this issue. He had no interest in Shanghai in the first place, and Jiang Yu kept things from him, which made him especially resistant to Shanghai.

"Zexi, is that person still with you? Is it because of him that you didn't come to Shanghai?" Jiang Yu asked suddenly.

Lin Zexi didn't speak, he just simply didn't want to answer.Jiang Yu's aggressive attitude annoyed him now.

Jiang Yu said to himself: "It's really him. Zexi, calm down, he didn't come to you when you left half a year ago, and now he came back and said some sweet words to you to shake you? If he really I care about you, why did you go? You keep saying you like it, but you don't act, what's the use of all the rhetoric?" Jiang Yu was a little agitated, and his tone unconsciously became sharp.

"Is it right to act because you like it? Should it be accepted and forgiven?"

"What?" Jiang Yu was a little confused by Lin Zexi's unreasonable question, not knowing how to answer it.

"It's nothing, I've already made up my mind, you don't need to persuade me anymore. Anyway, thank you for taking care of me during this time, and I feel very sorry that I can't help you." He said in an official tone, which made Jiang Yu feel that the relationship between the two The distance becomes very far.

"Zexi..." Jiang Yu called his name helplessly.

"That's it, I'll hang up first." Lin Zexi finished speaking lightly, and hung up the phone.He took a deep breath and felt a lot more relaxed after finishing a matter.

Lin Zexi had just hung up the phone when she heard Gu Ming knocking on the door.He opened the door, and Gu Ming stood at the door and said with an embarrassed expression: "I'm fine, just to see if you need help."

"No." Lin Zexi said with a calm face, her mood was much better than before, but she just didn't want to show it.

The two just stood by the door, Lin Zexi didn't speak or close the door, Gu Ming neither spoke nor left.

"That... oh, there is something I wanted to tell you before." After finishing speaking, Gu Ming took out his mobile phone from his pocket, took out a picture and said to him, "Do you remember this person? The master who held the food festival last time decided to hold a training class in City A for a period of three months. Those who won the competition last time can register first, and I have already signed up for you, and the class will start next month."

Lin Zexi glanced at the picture on the phone, frowned, a little upset that he made a decision without asking for his opinion. "You signed up for me? I'm not in City A, what name did you sign up for me?"

"I heard that his class is very popular, and many people have reserved it. As soon as I received the news, I quickly signed up and paid the full amount, because I was afraid that I would not get a place." Gu Ming said happily.

"You still paid the full amount? How much?" Lin Zexi felt like he was riding a tiger.

"It's not expensive, because you won the prize at the time and got a discounted price of only 8 yuan. The original price was [-] yuan." Gu Ming said happily, as if he had picked up such a bargain.

"Eighty thousand is not expensive? You... quickly call and ask if the money can be refunded?" Lin Zexi's voice became louder unconsciously.

Gu Ming shook his head helplessly and said: "No, I have already consulted before, and I can save 5000 if I can't get a refund, so it actually only cost [-], which is a quarter cheaper than the original price."

Lin Zexi sighed secretly, how could these vulgar routines deceive Gu Ming?How easy is his money to cheat. "I'm not going back, what are you going to do?"

"If you don't go back, I will be very disappointed and sad, but I also respect your decision. I only think of you in my heart. No matter what you think of me, no matter whether we can stay together or not, I will not change. My feelings for you." Gu Ming calmed down, looked at him seriously and said.

Lin Zexi couldn't resist his gaze, and quietly turned away from his sight slightly, and said in silence for a while, "I'm going to sleep first." After speaking, he closed the door.
