Chapter 453: See you at the old place
Old Man Gu's departure was a big deal in the capital, and no matter what the people who received the news were doing, they all put down their work and went to the general hospital to see each other for the last time. The life of the old man is a legendary life and a glorious life. To meet each other, this is also to show respect for the older generation.
More and more people are coming, making the inside and outside of the ward even more crowded. After Wu Tian came out of the ward, he went downstairs without stopping, and sent Zhou Haoran and the others who had to follow, and Wu Tian drove out of the hospital by himself.
After driving a distance, the high-rise buildings of the General Hospital were gradually blocked by other high-rise buildings and disappeared from Wu Tian's sight. And Zhou Haoran, Wang Da and others also drove away separately, and did not follow him closely as before. Eventually, at a park, Wu Tian stopped the car.
Wu Tian didn't get out of the car, he leaned his whole body on the back of the table and chair, his head tilted, and his eyes closed. The scenes in the ward before still appeared in his mind, especially Gu Yu's shadow, which always lingered. He had tried his best to control himself, hoping to drive out the woman in his mind, but the result was often counterproductive, and there were more and more pictures about Gu Yu, which finally occupied his entire brain. He couldn't concentrate on driving normally, and he felt that everyone he saw was Gu Yu, which also made him have to stop the car quickly, otherwise the real version of Need for Speed would be staged, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
There is no one else, only himself, so Wu Tian doesn't need to disguise now. In fact, he has been trying his best to control the churning emotions in his heart like a tide, whether it is when he sees his father or in front of the Gu family, he always reminds himself: Wu Tian, a qiē has passed, you are no longer the past you, you must be calm, no matter who you face.
He did do that calmly. From entering the hospital to leaving the hospital, he was very calm, and only when he entered the ward, his face showed sadness. Of course, this is because Old Man Gu is gone. But after leaving the hospital, when there was no one around, Wu Tian finally couldn't control his feelings, and he even had the urge to rush into the general hospital again to question Gu Yu in person, but he knew that the environment didn't allow it, so when he got out of the hospital at the beginning, he drove the car very fast. I just want to stay away from the hospital, away from anyone.
"Ah~!"
Wu Tian suddenly opened his eyes, shouted loudly, and slammed his hands into the steering wheel.
"Why? Why are you coming back? Why let me see you again? ”
"Do you know that the most important thing I want to do right now is to kill you?"
"You dare to come back?"
Wu Tian roared and thrashed, and the whole car shook with it. His face was sometimes angry, sometimes sad. Sometimes hideous, sometimes resentful, the ensuing complications put him on the verge of collapse, extremely dangerous.
But it didn't take long. Wu Tian stopped shouting, he put his hands on the steering wheel and stopped beating, his tilted head was on the steering wheel at this time, and the expression on his face finally stayed on the pain. Wu Tian had an urge to cry. But he also knew that it was not worth crying for such a woman, thinking of what this woman had done to him four years ago. The expression on his face suddenly became hideous again, what he wanted to do most now was to swallow Gu Yu alive, maybe only in this way could he calm the anger in his heart.
Wu Tian sat in the car for an hour, waiting for his feelings to gradually begin to recover, and only then drove back to the company when Wu Tian thought he could control his feelings. However, instead of entering the real yàn room, he returned to his room, and he still needed to calm down alone. If he brought this kind of moment-like affair to the real room, he feared that there would be a big explosion.
In the evening, Wu Tian's mobile phone rang suddenly, waking up the groggy Wu Tian from his inner world. He didn't know if he was asleep or not, he just felt that it was already dark after a while.
A series of numbers appeared on the caller ID, this is an unfamiliar number, I have not seen this number in Wu Tian's memory, I don't know who it is.
"Hello, who are you looking for?" Wu Tian asked after answering the phone. He never told others his mobile phone number casually, and no one had the courage to tell others casually his mobile phone number, so the person who made this call should be someone he knew, but in order to avoid the other party making the wrong call, Wu Tian still opened his mouth first.
"Is it Wu Tian?" The other party asked on the phone.
It was a soft voice, like a spring breeze blowing on the face, but for Wu Tian, it was like an ice blade, piercing his heart. It was a voice all too familiar to him, and although he hadn't heard it for four years, he would never forget it.
Wu Tian's body trembled violently, and his body leaning on the chair immediately sat up straight, and he found that the hand holding the mobile phone had been shaking, and it was shaking very much, as if he had Parkinson's syndrome.
"It's me, what's the matter?" Wu Tian held his phone tightly and asked lightly. He tried his best to make his voice sound calm, but when he said it, there was still a slight tremor. After all, Gu Yu's call was so sudden, he never thought that Gu Yu would take the initiative to call him.
"Got time? Come out for dinner together. Gu Yu asked.
"I'm sorry, I've already eaten it." Wu Tian said after hearing it, but his stomach was rumbling unseasonably, in fact, Wu Tian not only didn't eat dinner, but even lunch was saved because he was called to the teahouse by Zhou Haoran, fortunately he was talking to Gu Yu on his mobile phone, if it was face-to-face, he had to be heard by the other party.
"Then come out and talk, how about it?" Gu Yu sent out another invitation.
"Is there anything you can't say on the phone?" Wu Tian asked, not that he didn't want to see Gu Yu, but that he was worried that he would do something that even he couldn't control after seeing Gu Yu. After all, this time it was a private meeting, unlike when he was in the hospital during the day, when there were many people around, Wu Tian could still control himself.
"Why, don't you want to see me so much?" Gu Yu asked.
"What do you say?" Wu Tian asked rhetorically.
“…….!” There was silence on the other end of the phone, and after a long time, a voice came, "Aren't you curious why I left in the first place?" ”
Wu Tian was slightly stunned, and the corners of his mouth twitched. I have to say that Gu Yu's words spoke to his heart. After so many years, Wu Tian has actually been thinking about this question. Just when he learned the news of Gu Yu's return from Zhou Haoran at noon today, this question also appeared in his mind.
"Hehe, what's curious?" Wu Tian suddenly smiled and said, "The matter has already passed, what's the use of mentioning it again?" Time can't be turned back, and a qiē can't start all over again. From the moment you decide to marry someone else, you should know that your qiē has nothing to do with me. Wu Tian began to disguise himself again, he didn't want to be so vulnerable in front of the other party. It's as if he couldn't live without her. Wu Tian just wants to let the other party know, you Gu Yu, it's nothing great, there is no one missing in this world, the earth is the same, people can still live even if their parents die, do you still want to die for a person who is not even related by blood?
"Oh?" Wu Tian's words made Gu Yu on the other side of the phone slightly stunned, obviously not expecting Wu Tian to answer her like this. She thought that as long as she asked the question, the other party would come out to meet her and question her face to face. "When I was in Canada, I heard something about you. It seems that you are completely fine, so I can rest assured. Are you really not curious, though, or are you pretending not to be curious? Wu. We grew up together, don't try to lie to me. Besides, since you really feel fine. Why don't you dare come out and meet me? What are you afraid of? ”
"The method of agitation is useless to me." Wu Tian said lightly, "However, since you have already said so, in order to show that I will be fine after you leave, I will meet you here." Say, location. "He doesn't want to be a coward.
"I'll be waiting for you in the old place. See you or leave you. ”
"Yes."
After ending the call, Wu Tian did not go immediately, but stared at his mobile phone in a daze. Is this qiē all true? Was it really Gu Yu's call just now? Why did the other party make this call? What exactly did she want to talk about? Or, just for a meal? Wu Tian's mind flashed countless questions about Gu Yu for a while, but in the end, they couldn't confirm it.
Maybe we really should meet each other. Wu Tian thought in his heart. However, this side is not to ask why the other party left, nor to ask why the other party asked him to come out, but to allow himself to face Gu Yu more calmly. The knot in the heart must be solved after all, otherwise it will stay in the heart for a lifetime, and this pain will remain for a lifetime. At least let yourself not be in pain because of this incident when you are old and reminisce about the past events of your life. Therefore, no matter how painful it is when untying this knot, you must do it. Solution, is only a temporary pain, but without solution, it is a lifetime of pain.
Wu Tian went inside and washed his face to make himself look more energetic, he didn't want to appear in front of Gu Yu with a languid look, this is not a matter of impression, but a matter of a man's dignity. He even changed his clothes, in order to let Gu Yu know that he is very good now, very good.
The old place is not the place where Wu Tian and Gu Yu once dated, nor is it a secret stronghold between the two, the old place is the old place, it is a café, and the name is 'old place'. Speaking of cafes, they are all Western things, and they usually should be given a letter name and then translated in Chinese. The name 'Old Place' is rustic, and it sounds a bit like a small restaurant at the junction of urban and rural areas. And when the name is pressed on the café, it sounds a bit nondescript, but it also tells everyone that this café is not an ordinary café.
The reason why Wu Tian and Gu Yu know the old place is because it is opposite Gu Yu's alma mater, and the owner of the café is also from this school, and after graduation, he stayed abroad for a few years and returned here to open this café. When Gu Yu was studying here, Wu Tian often came to the school to find her, eat and chat, and would choose here, and it was indeed loved by the students in this university, and even students from other colleges and universities around him would come here. College students, what they want is to be maverick, and the more strange things are, the more they want to try. What's more, the coffee here is really good.
When Wu Tian came to the old local café, it was almost seven o'clock, and he hadn't been here for more than four years, and he hadn't changed a single thing, but the waiter's face was a little unfamiliar. Most of the waiters here are work-study students recruited from nearby universities, so they are basically replaced every once in a while.
Gu Yu had already arrived, and she was sitting by the window, which was very conspicuous, so Wu Tian saw her as soon as she entered. In fact, an otherworldly woman like Gu Yu. Even if you sit in the corner, you can easily be spotted, and as long as she is there, she can attract everyone's attention.
Wu Tian sat down opposite Gu Yu and asked for a cup of black coffee when the waiter came over.
"I'm coming." Wu Tian looked at Gu Yu on the opposite side and asked, "Say, what's the matter with calling me here?" I don't think you're going to call me out for nothing, are you? ”
"If you haven't seen you for many years, can't you catch up with the past?" Gu Yu asked.
"Renewing? What old do I have to talk to you? Wu Tian said with a sneer. At this time, the waiter brought coffee. Wu Tian picked it up and took a big sip, it was very bitter, but it was delicious, which was exactly in line with Wu Tian's mood at this moment.
"You weren't like that before." Gu Yu looked at Wu Tian and said faintly, "When did you become so mean?" ”
"I haven't changed, it's you who have changed." Wu Tian said lightly, "Didn't you say that I was afraid of you?" Now I'm here and have proven your idea wrong. So. If there's anything else you want to do, just say it, I still have something to do, you don't know, I'm very busy right now. ”
"I know you're busy. Busy with Project A, right? Gu Yu said suddenly, and then lowered his head and drank coffee.
Wu Tian was stunned when he heard this, and asked strangely, "How did you know about Project A?" "You know, Project A was only established three years ago. At that time, Gu Yu had already left, and suddenly thought of the third generation of the Gu family, Wu Tian looked like he understood. He said, "Oh, isn't that little cousin of yours in business suing you?" Seems he knows a lot, should I borrow some money from him as a research fund? ”
"It's not him." Gu Yu shook his head gently, and then said, "Actually, when I came back this time, in addition to visiting my grandfather, there was one more thing. ”
"Hmph, I knew you were in trouble." Wu Tian said with a smile, with a look: I have seen you through.
"This matter was entrusted by a friend of mine, and I hope that when I return to China this time, I can help her solve this matter." Gu Yu looked at Wu Tian and said, "You should know about the cancellation of the business delegation's visit to Canada, right?" ”
"Huh?" Wu Tian frowned, squinted his eyes and looked at Gu Yu with a calm face, and asked, "I've heard a little about this matter, but this kind of country ambassador, a little person like me has always been unconcerned, and he didn't let me go." Wu Tian suddenly remembered, didn't Gu Yu marry a Canadian Yankee?
"I came back this time to facilitate the business delegation's visit to Wèn, which is beneficial to both parties." Gu Yu said bluntly.
"That's weird." Wu Tian said, "You should go to your father for this kind of big thing, what do you tell me?" ”
"That's because I know the story behind the cancellation of the business delegation's visit to Wèn." Gu Yu stared at Wu Tian and said, "Wu Tian, do you know? After I landed today, I didn't do anything but spend the last time with my grandfather. I came to you and told you about this matter, just in the hope that we can be honest with each other. But you are not sincere to me. ”
"Be honest? When these words come out of your mouth, how do I have the urge to laugh? No, I can't help it. Hahahaha. Wu Tian raised his head in front of Gu Yu and laughed, and he was out of control.
His laughter was so loud that the whole café could hear it, and they looked strangely at the man who was laughing in front of the beautiful woman, how could he not have a little gentlemanly demeanor? And this laugh is not a laugh from the heart, but a mockery. That's right, it's a mockery! Could it be that he was laughing at the beautiful woman sitting across from him?
Gu Yu's face turned red, she gritted her teeth tightly, and tried her best to restrain herself. This feeling of being humiliated in front of her really hurts her heart. Of course, the heartache was not brought by humiliation, but by Wu Tian's humiliation of her. used to be a childhood sweetheart, but now it has become like a pair of enemies.
After a while, maybe it was enough to laugh, Wu Tian stopped, looked at Gu Yu and said, "No wonder you asked me out, it turned out that you had something to ask me for." But I want to ask, is your friend from the Canadian government, or from Pombeck? ”
In fact, when Gu Yu mentioned the business delegation, Wu Tian knew the purpose of the other party looking for him. Presumably Gu Yu made an analysis after hearing about this, from Tianzheng Pharmaceutical to Yannan of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, with her understanding of the capital, it was easy to guess who the main messenger behind the scenes was.
"Miss Tina, the second largest director of Pombeck, is a friend of mine, and this Miss Tina's father is a member of the Cabinet, and they all found me." Gu Yu replied, "So I don't know if I'm from the Canadian government or Pombeck." ”
"I heard that Pombeck sent a person to solve the problem, it seems that it is you." Wu Tian thought of what Yan Nan told him on the phone, and he and Yan Nan guessed what kind of big man Pombeck would send to solve this tricky matter, but he didn't expect it to be Gu Yu. With the status of the Gu family in the capital, it is possible to influence Yan Nan, but it is simply a dream to influence him Wu Tian. Wu Tian cocked Erlang's legs, looked at Gu Yu and said, "Since it is to solve the problem, it must be with a gift, right?" Tell me what the Canadian government and Pombek are going to give me? (To be continued......)
