Chapter 31: Sweet and Bitter
Chen Mobei really didn't come here on purpose to squat at Gu Qingran this time, not to mention that this road is not close to her school, this time it was really a coincidence, he had just negotiated a long-term cooperation with a hairdresser, and on the way back, he saw the little girl with her head down and a lost figure.
"Chen Mobei?" Gu Qingran was also taken aback, they hadn't seen each other for nearly half a year In her impression, Chen Mobei had secretly come to see her in the middle, but she had been in the car and hid far away.
"Get in the car." The boy's face was dark and uncertain, Gu Qingran hesitated, and then pulled the car door and got into the car - damn Lu Zhi, let you eat vinegar!
"Why are you still on your way so late?"
"It's not too late...... It's like, walk home, I usually do that. "It's usually different, Lu Zhi will come to pick him up after work.
"Haven't eaten at night?" Chen Mobei glanced at the paper bag in the girl's hand, and knew it: "Take you to eat something delicious." ”
"Okay, okay, I want to eat hot pot! Let's go eat Haidilao! Realizing that he was still too skilled in front of him, Gu Qingran said weakly: "We can AA." ”
Chen Mobei had a smile on his face, he naturally wouldn't let her pay, just to make up for something he hadn't given her before.
Of course, hot pot is delicious, and there is nothing unhappy that cannot be solved by a hot pot, if there is, then come again. Rao is like this, Chen Mobei still found Gu Qingran's absent-mindedness, and he probably guessed that it was because of Lu Zhi. Maybe time can really heal something, and now Chen Mobei doesn't seem to feel as sad about her being with another person as before, and now it's just sad because she's sad. It's okay if you can't be together, as long as you're happy, then I'm happy too.
The little girl's mobile phone rang several times, but Gu Qingran didn't answer. One is that she doesn't know how to explain that she is with Chen Mobei now, even if they are just having a simple meal, and in addition, she thinks why she should explain it to him, Lu Zhi left her there alone on such an important day. When it rang for the third time, Chen Mobei took the mobile phone and connected it.
"Qingran, where are you? Why haven't you come home yet? Lu Zhi's voice was a little urgent, he rushed home to arrange it after work, and then when he went to the school to find Gu Qingran, she was no longer in school, and she didn't answer the phone, Lu Zhi searched all the small shops they often went to near the school and couldn't find it, and finally got through the phone at this time, and sat on the side of the road with a deflated breath.
Chen Mobei didn't speak, raised his eyes to look at Gu Qingran, and the girl pursed her lips, obviously not wanting to answer. As soon as Lu Zhi came up, she was questioning, the anger she had just suppressed rushed up again, Chen Mobei signaled with his eyes, ready to answer Lu Zhi, Gu Qingran did not object, and continued to eat the shrimp in the bowl angrily. The boy smiled helplessly, and said with a little show-off: "Lu Zhi, Qingran is with me now, and I will send her back after dinner later." ”
Lu Zhi frowned, his heart cooled when he heard that it was a boy's voice, and he heard that it was Chen Mobei, as if something was blocked in his throat for a while, and he didn't know how to say a good word and hung up in a hurry, not daring to listen to a word from over there. She was with him, eating, Christmas. She didn't answer his phone and let him be anxious, was it because she was with that person? Lu Zhi weakly propped his hands behind his back, and for a moment, he thought about giving up.
In the end, he got up sensibly and took a taxi home, put the things that should be prepared as they were, and then sat on the sofa while playing with his mobile phone while waiting for Gu Qingran to come back. After calming down, Lu Zhi understood that Gu Qingran should have thought that he was not prepared today and forgot their anniversary, so he deliberately came to anger him with Chen Mobei. If you really want to say that Gu Qingran doesn't love him anymore, he doesn't believe it, you can still feel how much you love him when you get along day and night on weekdays, if you feel wrong, it can only be that Gu Qingran acted too really.
Forget it, I'll just ask her about this when the little girl comes back. Lu Zhi thought seriously about his recent relationship with Gu Qingran in this space, and she said that she wanted to read and study, so he went with her. Come to think of it, maybe it's because I don't have much time to spend with her, and he is indeed busier after work than when he was studying, after all, entering society is still different from school. Lu Zhi didn't even notice that he was actually covered with the sleek sophistication of an adult. But Gu Qingran is different, she is still passionate about life, her eyes are clear and clear, and she still believes that love is everything. Lu Zhi suddenly thought that maybe Chen Mobei and Gu Qingran were separated before, in addition to the reason for the distance, there was also this reason, the lives of the two people were getting worse and worse, and there were fewer and fewer things to communicate, and they finally separated. So, in fact, it's not that I don't love anymore, it's that love doesn't support life enough.
Love can be very simple, you love me and I love you, we can play and sleep together, but life is not, it is much more complicated. Those small fragments, intentionally or unintentionally, are piled up enough to break the castle of love.
After smoking a cigarette, Lu Zhi decided to find a time to have a good chat with Gu Qingran, not today, and he should apologize and coax her today. Lu Zhi lit a few more cigarettes, didn't smoke them but put them aside, deliberately shook off a pile of cigarette ashes, and sat in the dark with a sly smile.
So when Gu Qingran came back, he saw the cigarette butts flickering in the dark, and Lu Zhi was sitting in the corner of the sofa, looking decadent and helpless. When I looked up at the beautifully wrapped box on the coffee table and the pile of cigarette ash next to it, my heart turned into a puddle of water. But he still pretended to be angry, didn't look at Lu Zhi, and walked straight to the direction of the bathroom. Lu Zhi got up and hugged her from behind, and said sullenly: "Baby, why did you come back so late, I miss you so much." I didn't ask her where she was going, why she was with Chen Mobei, and her voice was full of grievances, like a little daughter-in-law who had been bullied.
Gu Qingran sighed, looking at the layout in the room, she also understood that Lu Zhi didn't forget, he wanted to surprise her, but she just happened to meet Chen Mobei, and by mistake, she couldn't go home directly. She is not a vexatious little girl, and besides, it is the first time she has seen Lu Zhi like this, he really cares about her.
"It just happened to meet, and we ate together, and nothing else." Gu Qingran turned around and hugged Lu Zhi, the smell of smoke on her body was so smoky that her tears were about to flow out, "I thought you forgot, I also prepared a gift for you." ”
"I'm sorry, I should have told you directly, I wanted to have a romance, but I didn't expect to mess up." Lu Dean said aggrievedly, "I'm especially afraid that you won't come back today." He was really afraid, even if he told himself over and over again that Gu Qingran really loved him, but as long as he thought that she had loved another person so much, and maybe even more, he was so jealous that he became more and more unconfident in himself. He could be sure that he was the most compatible with Gu Qingran, but he was afraid that she would not consider these things and only focus on feelings.
Love is always sweet and sad, and gains and losses are probably a common problem for people who are trapped in love.
