"Xiaosheng, it's okay! This rose doesn't need to be watered a lot...... Xiao Sheng?"

“…… Ah, good!" was awakened by Zheng's mother's doubtful voice, Gu Shengge straightened up as if he had just woken up from a dream. He hurriedly went to the kettle in his hand, but before his fingertips touched the edge of the handle of the kettle, he was stabbed into the thorn by the rose thorn that was displayed on the side, "Hmm!" frowned a little painfully, and without taking back his hand, Gu Shengge quickly straightened the kettle and put it on the ground. Looking at the overly wet soil in front of him, Gu Shengge just wanted to say something apologetically, but Zheng's mother on the side had already exclaimed,

"Ah......h

Glancing at his fingers in annoyance, Gu Shengge secretly blamed himself for his absent-mindedness, and waved his hand to Zheng's mother with relief, "It's okay, Auntie, this little injury ......"

"No, no, no! it must have been pierced very deep just now, and if you don't pull it out, it will be infected!" Without saying anything, she took off the flowerbed apron on her body, and Zheng's mother couldn't hide her worry, and grabbed Gu Shengge's wrist and walked home.

"You kid, you really careless...... Blame me, you should have been allowed to wear gloves, really, why did you say I forgot......"

Being tightly grasped by Zheng's mother, Gu Shengge smiled helplessly, and had to obediently speed up his pace and follow behind the woman. Looking at Zheng's mother, who was walking in front of her and was chattering worriedly, the curvature of the young man's lips became softer and softer.

In the days when he lives here, his relationship with Zheng's mother has obviously become much closer. Gu Shengge could see that from taking care of himself carefully at the beginning, to now being able to pull his wrist forcefully and count his carelessness - now Zheng's mother has completely taken care of him as her own son.

For Gu Shengge, from being embarrassed to express kindness to Zheng's mother at the beginning, to now offering to bake the cake she likes for Zheng's mother, this is undoubtedly a huge change and breakthrough for Gu Shengge, who has always been accustomed to keeping a distance from others.

Mother Zheng, who was walking in front, was still chattering about him, but the strength of holding his wrist gradually lightened. A soft light flashed under his eyes, and Gu Shengge bent the corners of his eyes in satisfaction.

Once upon a time, having the feeling of "mother" was a very luxurious experience for him. But now, as long as he looks at Mother Zheng in front of him, Gu Shengge can always experience an inexplicable sense of satisfaction. The elder who walked in front of him, she was always so warm. In these days with Zheng's mother, she always embraced him softly with a warm smile and ironing care. Getting along with such a woman, Gu Shengge always couldn't help but think that it was no wonder that Hengzhao would form such a warm character, after all, he had such a warm mother.

Feeling that his wrist was gently released, Gu Shengge looked over after realizing it, only to find that they had returned from the garden to the Zheng family's living room. His eyes swept over Zheng's mother's shallow frowning eyebrows, and before Gu Shengge could speak to be relieved, he heard Zheng's mother's worried sigh,

"Well, you kid...... I've always been absent-minded lately, is there anything uncomfortable?" raised her hand and probed Gu Shengge's forehead, and after confirming that he did not have a fever, Zheng's mother lowered her hand worriedly, "You are like this, and so is Hengzhao...... I locked myself in the study for so many days, and I didn't give up until yesterday. But I couldn't guess what he was thinking, it looked like he had something on his mind...... Tell me guys, what's going on?"

Lowering his eyes silently, Gu Shengge was a little speechless for a while. He didn't know what the problem was, and he didn't know how to answer Zheng's mother's question. You can't ask him to tell Zheng's mother that there is actually an inexplicable estrangement between him and Zheng Hengzhao?......

Since the matter on the Internet was successfully resolved and Zheng Hengzhao moved out of the study, the two rarely communicated alone. Gu Shengge didn't know what was wrong with him, but when he thought of what he heard that day, he felt a blockage in his chest. Whenever this happens, he can't help but feel that he can't face Zheng Hengzhao.

But what made him even more uncomfortable was that the man seemed to hear his thoughts. Sometimes, Gu Shengge could even feel that Zheng Hengzhao was alienating him intentionally or unintentionally. But the strange thing is that this kind of realization not only did not make him feel any more relaxed, but made him feel more and more uncomfortable.

"Forget it, whatever you think," sighed and spread her hands, Mother Zheng didn't seem to want to get an answer from Gu Shengge's mouth, "Okay, go wash your hands, and then sit down, I'll call Heng Zhao to give you ......"

"No! don't call him!" Dragged out of his mind by Zheng's mother's voice, Gu Shengge subconsciously shouted out the moment he heard the person's name. In the next second, feeling the strange eyes of Zheng's mother in an instant, Gu Shengge realized that he had overreacted just now, and he couldn't help but blush his ears for a while-

"It's not...... I, I mean......"

"Poof, hahahahaha," couldn't help laughing, Mother Zheng swept away the worries just now, and suddenly patted Gu Shengge's shoulder and bent the corners of her eyes with a smile, "I said why are you two so ghostly, it turned out that you two had a quarrel! Ouch, my lovely sons, it's really awkward than the other! Ouch, it's so cute......"

was laughed by Zheng's mother and pounced on her and rubbed her hair, Gu Shengge stood in place in a daze, and lowered her eyes a little helplessly.

Such...... Can it be considered a quarrel? No...... Perhaps it would be more appropriate to say that it was a cold war?......

"Xiao Sheng, don't worry," patted him on the shoulder vigorously, and the mother Zheng in front of him laughed wildly, and her narrow phoenix eyes were almost bent into a line, "I know the temper of that stinky boy in Hengzhao best! You bring a cake or something to coax him, and he will pounce on him in a while! Let me tell you, in fact, he ...... it."

Pounce, pounce?!......

After making up the picture in Zheng's mother's mouth, Gu Shengge blinked his eyes in shock, and the skin behind his ears was inexplicably hot several degrees.

Shaking his head vigorously and waving his hand, Gu Shengge denied in a low voice with red ears, "Actually, we didn't ......"

"Oh! listen to me!" stood on tiptoe and grabbed Gu Shengge's shoulder, Zheng's mother hung on Gu Shengge's body and laughed teasingly,

"Anyway, you do this and this, and then that and that hahaha...... And ah......"

In the huge living room, Mother Zheng had a witch-like smile, hanging on her tiptoes on Gu Shengge's body and snickering and biting his ears. Brother Zheng, who was holding a basketball, passed behind them, and when he walked out of the door without changing his shoes, he didn't forget to sprinkle two drops of sympathetic cat urine for the brother upstairs by the way.

The old witch has found a new game!

GOOD LUCK TO THE CALCULATED BROTHER, OH LUCKY......

When Zheng Hengzhao heard the knock on the door, he was staring at the contract in his hand and thinking about something.

"Aunt Pei, if you put the coffee outside, you can ...... it."

"Ahem, it's me. ”

Gu Shengge?!

His eyes widened in an instant, Zheng Hengzhao quickly jumped out of bed and flattened the sheets. Without thinking, he stuffed the contract in his hand under the pillow and pressed it, Zheng Hengzhao patted the pillow flat, and scratched his somewhat messy hair in the mirror.

After quickly completing all the movements, Zheng Hengzhao ran to the door a little nervously, and opened the door almost with bated breath.

"Well, sorry to keep you waiting, the room is a bit messy. ”

"Uh, nothing ......"

Gu Shengge, who was standing outside the door with a carved tea tray, seemed a little embarrassed, just glanced at him and quickly looked away. Looking at the man's obviously averted gaze, Zheng Hengzhao couldn't help frowning, and quickly let go subconsciously,

"Come in," his gaze swept over the tea tray in Gu Sheng's singer, Zheng Hengzhao raised the corners of his lips vigorously, trying to break the somewhat sluggish atmosphere with a smile, "Are the black tea and cake made for me? ”

"Hmm, it was Auntie who asked me to bring it up,......" explained somewhat in vain, Gu Shengge lowered his eyes and pursed his lips. As if he was annoyed by something, he suddenly shoved the plate in his hand into Zheng Hengzhao's hand,

“…… Stop drinking coffee and beware of sudden death. I didn't put sugar in today's black tea, and the cake was ......" As if realizing that he had missed his mouth, he suddenly intercepted the end of his words, and said in a low voice,

"Anyway, you eat slowly, I'll go first......"

"Where are you going?" Firmly grasping Gu Shengge's wrist, Zheng Hengzhao leaned on the door frame with a smile in the corner of his eyes. Putting the plate in his hand on the table beside him, Zheng Hengzhao turned his head and looked at Gu Shengge, who was firmly grasped by him, with interest. The person in front of him, who wanted to escape at any time, couldn't help but make him feel an inexplicable itch in his heart. Looking at Gu Shengge's somewhat annoyed look and red ears, the curvature of Zheng Hengzhao's lips couldn't help but raise again and again.

The inky black eyes flashed with a narrow smile, looking at Gu Shengge's always clear eyes dyed with a faint helplessness, Zheng Hengzhao couldn't help but feel bad in his heart, and suddenly his hand was forced, Gu Shengge, who was caught off guard in front of him, was instantly pulled a little closer by him, and an irrepressible smile rose on his lips, Zheng Hengzhao looked at the young man in front of him steadily, and couldn't help but lean down and slowly get close to him, "You worked so hard to make a cake for me personally, don't you think it's a pity that you have to leave before I finish eating?"

After being blown red by Zheng Hengzhao's warm breath, Gu Shengge turned his head slightly uncomfortably, "...... You think too much, just give it to you by the way, there's nothing to be sorry about. The matter of variety shows is also thanks to you to solve it so smoothly...... Anyway, just think I'm thanking you......"

"Oh, thank me?" Repeating Gu Shengge's words word by word, Zheng Hengzhao stared at Gu Shengge, who avoided his gaze in front of him, and the good mood just now suddenly disappeared. The unhappiness in his heart piled up layer upon layer like a tide, and with it, there was a bitter feeling that made him a little unfamiliar.

"It turned out that it was to thank me for ......"

With a soft chuckle, Zheng Hengzhao suddenly let go of Gu Shengge's wrist. Quietly withdrawing his hand, he slowly straightened up and regained the distance.

"I'm sorry," Zheng Hengzhao tried to raise the corners of his lips as he looked at the young man in front of him with pursed lips, "It seems that my joke is a bit excessive." ”

His eyes swept over the tea tray on the side, and the smile in Zheng Hengzhao's eyes became a little lighter.

"I'll finish the cake. ”

Lowering his eyes with deep eyes, he paused, and finally added in a low voice.

“…… Thank you. ”

As if being struck by a silent thunderbolt, Gu Shengge couldn't help but tremble, and suddenly clenched his fingers.

He wanted to turn around. He wanted to get his feet out. He wanted to completely erase the two unfamiliar words he had just heard.

But in front of his eyes, he suddenly fell into darkness in front of him.

The wall in front of him that was so solid that it could not be broken firmly between him and Zheng Hengzhao was so overwhelming that he was almost out of breath.

Gu Shengge closed his eyes in a daze, and suddenly felt suffocated.

He knew what the original form of the wall was.

That is, that was between him and Zheng Hengzhao......

The door that was once open--
