Gu Xiuyi glanced at the phone, and there was a lonely little cherry icon in the caller ID.
The small green leaves on the cherry stalks are the same as the locks of hair on Ji Ruan’s head that can’t be pressed down.
Ji Ruan did call him, just after nine o’clock, it was time for him to drink milk.
A strangeness rose in Gu Xiuyi’s heart, like a soap bubble suddenly burst at a delicate time, making him suddenly aware of something.
Ji Ruan seldom took the initiative to call him, at most he sent a message occasionally, and today he would call at this time, does it mean that he has unknowingly call him at nine o’clock because he didn’t give him milk?
From now on, Ji Ruan will think of him whenever he sees nine o’clock and milk.
Gu Xiuyi felt his heart faintly burning, and there was a sense of satisfaction that the seeds of careful care finally revealed tender sprouts.
“Sorry,” he still didn’t show the slightest expression, and calmly grabbed Ji Ruan’s shoulder: “My mobile phone was silent, and I didn’t receive any calls”
Ji Ruan let him walk forward with his arms, Twisting the zipper button of the coat on his chest with his fingers, he said loosely: “I also called Tezhu Song, but he didn’t answer. Later, Dr. Li called and said you were drunk, so I came here.” I mean, it wasn’t that he was easy to deceive, it was that Gu Xiuyi gave him wrong information by not answering the phone first, which made him easily believe Li Suian’s words.
Of course Gu Xiuyi could hear what he was trying to say. The kid held a grudge and cared about being called “stupid” by him, expressing openly and secretly that he was not a little fool.
Gu Xiuyi wanted to pinch his face again.
He suppressed the smile on the corner of his lips, and fiddled with Ji Ruan’s hair with his fingertips with restraint: “I will always answer your calls from now on.” “Really?”
Ji Ruan laughed, and suddenly covered his lips and coughed twice. The wind was a little cold at night, and he took a few breaths of cold air when he went out, and now his throat and chest feels cold.
“Then you promise.”
He covered his mouth and nose and took a while to complete the rest of the sentence.
Gu Xiuyi’s palm slowly ran along his back, “I promise, I will definitely answer every call in the future… Why did you start coughing again?”
Ji Ruan shook his head and moved his hand away: “It’s okay, spring is like this Right.”
His throat has been checked many times in the hospital, but no major problem can be found, and he said that the respiratory tract is sensitive and easily irritated.
Now in spring, the temperature is high and low, and all kinds of dust and catkins are also floating in the air. He has not been too comfortable during this time.
Gu Xiuyi was worried, but there was nothing he could do, he couldn’t lock Ji Ruan at home and not let him go out.
He looked at Ji Ruan’s eyes that were wet and red from coughing, and even felt that he had lost weight recently and his chin was pointed.
This bar has a total of three floors. The first floor is open for business, the second floor provides reserved private rooms for guests, and the third floor is an exclusive area for certain VIP customers.
Gu Xiuyi swiped his card and pushed open a heavy door to bring Ji Ruan in. There was a lot of space inside without any messy decorations. There were a few scattered ambient lights hanging from the top, a whole wall of wine cabinets in the corner, and thick carpeted floors on the floor. Carpet, footfall is barely audible.
Li Suian at the bar a few steps away raised his hand to greet them.
And next to him were Duan Zeping who was drunk and muttering, and Song Ling who was holding the bottle tightly to tell Duan Zeping not to drink anymore.
Gu Xiuyi didn’t go towards them, but took Ji Ruan to sit on the sofa in the opposite direction.
He glanced at the time, pressed the top of Ji Ruan’s head, and said, “Wait here for me, I’ll be right back.”
Ji Ruan found him looking at his watch, thinking he had something important to do, and nodded obediently: ” Okay.”
Gu Xiuyi smiled in satisfaction, and withdrew his hand, the hair on the top of Ji Ruan’s head trembled tremblingly, and then “tickled” back to its original arc.
“…”
Gu Xiuyi paused, he shouldn’t have tried to compete with Ji Ruan’s hair.
He turned around and said to Li Sui’an: “Take care of me.”
Li Sui’an raised his hand and nodded clearly to show he understood.
“Hey old Gu! Mr. Gu! Boss Gu!” Seeing that Gu Xiuyi was about to go out, Song Ling stood up quickly: “Wait for me, I’ll be with you, I can’t take it anymore!” While speaking, the sleeves were pulled
again , Song Ling staggered and almost fell to the ground, Duan Zeping’s eyes were lax: “Where is Lao Song going, keep drinking, come! Fill up!”.
“Oh, I’m going to fuck you.” Song Ling cursed, Duan Zeping was drunk, but Song Ling broke his fingers one by one before breaking free.
He pushed Duan Zeping’s head back on the bar: “Go to sleep, stop nagging.”
Duan Zeping wanted to rush up to pull Song Ling, but Li Suian stretched out an arm to stop him.
Song Ling heaved a sigh of relief, clasped his hands together as a gesture of thanks to Li Suian, then turned around and went out following Gu Xiuyi’s footsteps.
Duan Zeping drank a lot that night, making Song Ling’s body reek of alcohol. He washed his face first, then rubbed every finger with hand sanitizer before going to Gu Xiuyi for air.
Gu Xiuyi leaned against the service desk, with his elbows resting on the marble countertop, as if he was waiting for something, he lowered his head and flipped through his phone, his fingers were extraordinarily slender due to the dim light.
Song Ling walked over, asked the main station for a glass of water and a few pieces of paper to wipe his face, and sighed: “It’s too terrible, it’s too terrible to be broken in love.” Especially
Duan Zeping, the person who wants to find someone to drink after falling in love is the worst. horrible.
According to the old Duan, he figured it out first, and told Lin Qing first.
But Song Ling didn’t understand, since he had figured it out, why he was still crying so sadly.
Gu Xiuyi said lightly: “That’s why I told you that being in a relationship is not as interesting as working, so take it as a warning.”
When he said this, there was a hint of a smile, which was fleeting, as if he just twitched the corner of his mouth casually, but Song Ling instantly sounded the alarm, feeling the oppression of the capitalists.
It is said that love is not as good as work, isn’t he also immersed in love.
Co-authoring this is their routine, it is rare for employees to be single and work overtime to get rich, and then turn around to find a beautiful woman in their arms.
Song Ling dared not speak out.
The key point is that in his opinion, Gu Xiuyi’s love affair is not even considered as Plato, not even as good as Duan Zeping.
Although the old duan is a sadomasochist and fed the dog with sincerity, at least he has confessed his love more than once, and it can be regarded as trying his best, but he didn’t meet a good person, and he ended up getting drunk late at night.
But what is Gu Xiuyi doing?
For several months, the frogs are still boiled in warm water.
Song Ling pondered, Ji Ruan didn’t look like a toad that could wait for him to cook slowly, it was swan meat that many people lined up to eat, and he wasn’t afraid of flying either.
Song Ling looked at Gu Xiuyi’s leisurely appearance, thought for a while, and then said: “I’ll see what happened tonight, Ji Ruan should like you.”
Gu Xiuyi paused with his fingertips, and finally raised his eyes: “Today What happened late?”
“…?” Song Ling opened his eyes wide, opened and closed his lips a few times, “You didn’t feel anything?”
Of course he felt it, Ji Ruan was thinking about his milk, Ji Ruan was concerned about the birth depended on.
Gu Xiuyi clearly felt it.
But Song Ling didn’t know about these things, so there were obviously other things he didn’t notice.
He frowned: “What are you referring to?”
“Oh my God.” Song Ling looked like he hated iron and steel, thinking that his boss’s brains were all spent on work.
“He’s worried about you.” Song Ling said.
Gu Xiuyi looked a little serious.
Song Ling spread his hands and broke his fingers: “Look, I just found out that he called me. It’s almost time for him to go to bed at night. Why is he calling me? It must be because he can’t be reach You, you just wanted to get news from me. Could it be that he miss you?”
Gu Xiuyi lightly tapped the table with his index finger, thoughtfully: “Continue.”
“As soon as Lao Li said you were drunk, he said nothing and Huried over here, obviously his health is not very good, if he don’t care about you and worry about you, who would be willing to make a fuss at night, don’t you think so?”
“So you two, it’s this one,” he pointed his index fingers together and winked “Running in both directions!”
Song Ling thought he had said all the right words, but Gu Xiuyi’s expression didn’t change much, he just pursed his lips lightly, and put his head against his head, not knowing what he was thinking.
Tsk, can’t you still figure it out?
Song Ling was very anxious, rubbing his fingers to figure out how to say a few more words, but the corner of Gu Xiuyi’s mouth twitched.
Mr. Gu was silent for a while, and finally there was an expression on his face, but it was only a very subtle moment, and it was immediately covered.
He covered his lips and coughed, and looked aside: “Don’t fucking talk nonsense.”
This was the first time Song Ling heard what was barely a foul language from Gu Xiuyi.
The light and shadow are sometimes bright and sometimes dark, Song Ling vaguely saw Gu Xiuyi’s subordinates, the corners of his mouth that were half covered seemed to be rising.
He took a closer look, Gu Xiuyi’s ears…the ears seemed to be a little red too.
Boom –
There was a loud noise in Song Ling’s mind, and his pupils vibrated as if seeing something terrifying.
Gu Xiuyi, seems to be shy?
Gu Xiuyi will be so fucking shy?
He is too excited, do you know what it means to be embarrassed?
Song Ling almost choked on his own saliva, and quickly picked up the cup to drink water to calm his shock.
The waiter added a lot of ice to his plain water, and he almost froze his teeth when he gulped it down.
Song Ling cursed secretly, don’t you charge for ice cubes in this bar?
Gu Xiuyi still tilted his head slightly, and there was not much expression on his face, but no matter how he looked at it, he seemed to be immersed in a certain emotion, savoring something carefully.
There was a slight smile in the corner of his eyes.
So weird, so weird.
Anyone can do this, but Gu Xiuyi’s expression is extraordinarily weird.
Song Ling couldn’t take it anymore, rubbed his neck and looked around, only to realize that they stayed in front of the main stage for a long time.
He was taken aback: “What are you doing here?”
“I asked for something.”
Gu Xiuyi didn’t look at him, and spoke naturally while touching the wedding ring on his ring finger.
Song Ling smiled inexplicably: “What a big deal…”
Isn’t it just to drink when you come to the bar?
For them, no matter what kind of wine they want, no matter how expensive it is, if you make a call, they can’t wait to push the car and fly to you in the next second, so they don’t need to come to the front desk to ask for it.
“–Mr. Gu, your milk is ready.”
The manager’s professional and respectful voice sounded, and Song Ling turned around to see a decent smile on his face, and-the cup of steaming milk on the table.
The corners of Song Ling’s mouth, which had been curled up just now, froze.
What’s the meaning?
Gu Xiuyi went to the bar to drink milk?
Or fucking hot milk? !
“Thank you, thank you for your hard work.” Gu Xiuyi said with a smile. His words indicated that the manager would get a big tip.
The manager’s smile deepened, and he bent down towards Gu Xiuyi’s back: “It’s an honor to serve you.”
Song Ling turned his head stiffly, watching Gu Xiuyi leisurely walking back with the milk in his hand.
His voice was very soft in the empty hall, but Song Ling could hear a hint of showing off:
“Ji Ruan only drinks this brand of milk.”
