Time is shallow, and the years are quiet
"Look at your gaze, beyond the setting sun."
Two years ago, Tianyang Welfare Institute changed its name to Leyang and had a new director.
Gu Du and Luo Chao got up early in the morning and went to the supermarket to buy a lot of toys and snacks and fruits that children like.
"Brother Twilight!" 8-year-old Xiaoxiao sat on the slide and saw Gu Du at the door of the welfare home from a distance, shouting loudly.
Following the sound of laughter, the children playing together in the courtyard also looked at the door of the welfare home, and saw Gu Du rushing over happily.
"It's Brother Twilight here!"
"Brother Twilight!"
A group of young children excitedly rushed towards Gu Dui, Gu Dui picked up the youngest of them, Miao Miao, and walked inside with everyone to greet each other, while Luo Chao silently accompanied him.
"Come on, come on, sit down, tell me how everyone is doing during this time, I have brought a lot of delicious and fun food!" Every time Gu Du goes to the welfare home, he will distribute small gifts according to everyone's performance.
"I got the first place in the final exam!"
"I won second place in the school singing competition!"
"I made it to the school's soccer team!"
"I picked up someone else's lost wallet and handed it to the teacher, who praised me for finding gold."
"I... I got a big red flower yesterday..."Miao Miao was not to be outdone, and said to Gu Du in a milky voice.
"Well, everyone is doing well, let's choose the prizes, remember to keep up the good work!" Gu Du saw that everyone was growing in a good direction, and his heart was indescribably satisfied.
Of course, everything now is thanks to Luo Chao's help, two years ago he called the police to ask the police to thoroughly investigate the director of the welfare home, and found out this hypocritical fox; I also found a dean who is really serious and responsible, and loves children, to take over the new welfare home.
Gu Du often thought that maybe he had spent all the luck in his life to meet Luo Chao.
After eating with the children at noon, Gu Du said goodbye to everyone and agreed to come to see them every weekend during the summer vacation.
Out of the welfare home, Gu Du suddenly wanted to go to the small courtyard before, so he said to Luo Chao on the same side, "Brother, let's go back, I just ate too much and it's a little supportive, so let's eliminate food." ”
Gu Du deliberately took Luo Chao on the long way of the detour, there were not many people coming and going, it was a little secluded, and the two of them walked leisurely under a row of old trees.
"This is the way to my former yard."
"Hey, brother, you found out."
"Why do you suddenly want to go over there?"
"It's just a little nostalgic. Do you know? Actually, I used to deliberately take a detour past your house. Although this road is a little farther, the mood is pleasant every time I walk back. ”
"Hmm. At that time, my parents were retired, and the two of us traveled around the world, and it was a bit lonely for me to live alone, and I was very happy that you often came. ”
The two chatted as they walked, and before they knew it, they had arrived. The magnolia trees in the courtyard are more tall and lush than back then, and the magnolia flowers are also blooming gracefully.
"Brother, come, let's sit here."
"Hmm."
The two of them sat on the stone bench under the tree as they did back then.
Gu Du put down his backpack, took out a pen and paper from it, and said to Luo Chao, "Brother, I'll also draw one for you, just as a gift from two years ago!" ”
"By the way, let's see how the level of the high apprentice taught by your famous teacher is!"
"Okay." Seeing that he had this interest, Luo Chao readily agreed, he was still not worried about his technique, Gu Duan had an excellent memory, and he really learned everything quickly.
Gu Du painted very seriously, and his brushstrokes were very detailed, as if he was carving a priceless treasure.
"Alright, done." Gu Du finished painting and was about to hand his work to Luo Chao, when he suddenly remembered something and took it back.
"Hey, wait, forgot something." He added a small line of words to the top of the inscription with a pen.
Luo Chao got the painting, and saw that he was even more dazzling than the sun in the sky, his eyes looked at the front gently, and the corners of his mouth smiled, as if he was talking to someone about something.
The next line reads: Your light is on me.
Luo Chao knew that to Gu Dui, he was a light in the darkness. However, that was in the past, and he didn't want Gu Du to be attached to him like this all the time.
"Twilight, you draw very well, I like it very much."
Hearing Luo Chao's praise, Gu Du was very happy in his heart.
"But, Twilight, I want to tell you that you are your own sun. I can't be with you forever, you have to learn to make yourself shine. ”
Hearing Luo Chao's words, Gu Du was a little anxious, "Why is it impossible, didn't we say that I will be admitted to the same university as you in the future, study the same major, and then do the same work as you?" ”
"Twilight, I want you to be independent and not be too attached to others, I am not the whole of your life. I want to see Twilight who can chase her dreams healthily and happily even if I disappear one day. ”
"I don't want it, I'm going to stay by your side." Gu Du couldn't listen to him.
Both men were silent.
Perhaps because he felt that the atmosphere was too embarrassing, Gu Du wanted to ease up, "Oh, brother... Don't think so much, how could you suddenly disappear. And, you see, I'm very happy now, I have a goal, I have the ability, and I have the drive! ”
Luo Chao smiled helplessly. For Gu Dui, he is inherently ambivalent, reason tells him that he wants Gu Dui to be more independent, while Sensibility hopes that Gu Dui can always be by his side. This contradiction made him think about it repeatedly, and he gradually realized that maybe his feelings for Gu Du were no longer simply for a younger brother.
Although Gu Du pretended to be relaxed on the surface, he was actually a little afraid of Luo Chao's assumption, and he couldn't accept taking Luo Chao from his life. He wanted to stay by Luo Chao's side all the time, Luo Chao was in all his plans for the future, and he wanted to occupy this person. He also gradually understood that maybe his feelings for Luo Chao were not just family affection.
At night, the two of them went back to their rooms, dug out the paintings given by the other and fell into deep thought.
Gu Du thought back to the bits and pieces of the time the two had been together for more than two years, and slowly strengthened his mind, but he knew that he was still too young, and suddenly confessing his heart would make Luo Chao feel that he was impulsive, and at the same time, he was not sure if Luo Chao had the same feelings for him.
Although Luo Chao was aware of his feelings for Gu Duan, when he thought of Gu Duan's experience two years ago, he never dared to show anything. All he can do is maintain the status quo.
You are the greatest joy of my youth, and I regret not daring to tell you...
