Chapter 22: Keep your distance
"I don't know." She hesitated for a long time, but she could only give this answer.
"Then let it be and don't overthink it." Zhong Shengyun touched her head lovingly and pulled her over to eat.
But this question was deeply imprinted on the heart of her love, and for many days, she tried to find the answer, but found nothing.
In order to relieve his troubles, he picked up a paintbrush that he hadn't touched for a long time, carried a small bag, and went out to collect wind.
"Good weather is good, the whole person is beautiful!" Zhong Ai carried a canvas bag and stepped on sneakers, ran to the hill near his home, stretched his waist, overlooked everything below the mountain, and his mood improved.
She picked a suitable spot, sat down on a stone, and began to write against the trees and houses down the hill.
The green hills are stacked, the trees are verdant, and the whole person is immersed in such a peaceful scenery, I don't know how long it took, and suddenly there were bursts of footsteps behind him.
"Are there any people on this little hill?" Zhong Qing turned his head to look at it, and immediately put away his things, for fear of hindering others from walking.
When the group of people approached, Zhong Qing frowned slightly, feeling that something was wrong.
Isn't the person who takes the lead Gu Yanze? How did they end up here?
"Petty? Why are you here? Just when she saw Gu Yanze, Gu Yanze also saw her, her tone was unconsciously tainted with excitement, and the questions she asked were exactly what she wanted to ask.
was stopped by Gu Yanze in front of so many people, Zhong Qing was a little passive, and pretended to shrug his shoulders lightly and said, "I'll come to collect the wind, just take a walk." What are you doing? ”
Gu Yanze was also followed by a group of men and women, who looked like employees of his company.
"The company's team building, the nearest location, came here." Gu Yanze said it so sincerely, the employees behind him almost believed it.
Obviously, I decided to travel today, and it is called exercise. Now it seems that Mr. Gu just wants to see Miss Zhong at all.
But these words can only be digested internally, and they can only nod and echo the skeptical gaze of Shang Zhong.
"Then you go on, I'll go somewhere else." Zhong Qing smiled, and her delicate face was a little more bright.
"It just so happens that they are going back, so I'll go shopping with you again." Gu Yanze turned his head and glanced at the secretary, who immediately arranged for everyone to go down the mountain, leaving the two Gu Yanze and Zhong Qing on the mountain.
"Gu Shao, the employees of your company are really considerate. It's not easy to act with a full set of acting. The salary is not low, right? Zhong Qing glanced at him angrily, took his bag and turned to leave.
Gu Yanze naturally followed behind her, and seeing that she was struggling with the drawing board on her back, he reached out to hold it for her.
Zhong was stunned, and the thing was in his hands, Gu Yanze raised his eyebrows at her, and looked calm: "The salary will definitely not be low, if you like it, you can also come to my company to try it." ”
The effort to dig the foot of the wall was all used on her. Zhong Qing pursed his mouth in his heart, but his face was still silent, wanting to fight Gu Yanze to the end.
"Probably if there is no suitable job for me, I can only paint, and nothing else."
As she spoke, she reached out and snatched the drawing board from Gu Yanze's body, but her strength was too small, so she didn't snatch it back, but threw herself out.
Gu Yanze stretched out his long arms, hugged her waist, pulled her back, and put his big hand on her waist, which was extremely natural.
"Thank you, can you spread your hands?" Zhong Qing put his hand on his chest, leaned into his arms, and glared at him fiercely.
Gu Yanze obediently let go of his hand, he didn't seem to have any intentions, and continued to follow her with the sketchpad on his back: "I can't walk steadily, so I'll leave the sketchpad to me." ”
"If you hadn't snatched it, would I have had to snatch it back?" Zhong Qing couldn't help but talk back.
"You don't have to rob it." Gu Yanze was one position behind her, worried that she would be injured again, and protected her behind him.
Zhong Qing didn't think about it so much, he only knew that Gu Yanze was very good at making himself angry, and gritted his teeth and said, "You grabbed it first!" ”
After a few more rounds of such a boring conversation, Zhong Qing suddenly realized that something was wrong, and turned his head to stare at Gu Yanze: "Did you do it on purpose?" ”
"Yes." Gu Yanze agreed simply, and successfully made Zhong Qing's face darken.
At this time, I don't know where the strength came from, so I struggled to snatch back the drawing board, and took advantage of the chaos to step on Gu Yanze, which can be regarded as venting my anger.
"Shameless! You actually tease me so much, just to see my jokes! If she hadn't found out in time, she wouldn't have known how long she would have been teased by Gu Yanze!
When I returned home, I was lying on the sofa with a puff of anger, and my brain was about to be blown up by Gu Yanze.
When she came back to her senses, it was close to dinner, and her stomach was rumbling with hunger, so she made up her mind to go out to buy groceries.
There is a large supermarket nearby, so I didn't think much about it, so I got into it, pushing a small cart, looking for my favorite food.
"What a coincidence, we met again."
Just when she was struggling with broccoli or cauliflower, there was a sudden voice behind her that followed by a morning of love.
"Gu Yanze, why are you here!" Zhong Qing was startled and almost threw away the thing in his hand.
"The company needs to buy something, I'll come and take a look." Gu Yanze was empty-handed, and he didn't even have a basket, but he didn't say it at all.
"Gu Shao is really doing it himself." The hand that loved to hold the cart was secretly forced, and Bai Sensen's bone joints were very scary.
"Passing the prize." Gu Yanze took a step, walked to her side, and followed her to pick vegetables, in the eyes of those who don't know, they seem to be a good-looking couple.
"Does Gu Shao's company still need to buy these?" Zhong Qing couldn't help but poke at him, and asked deliberately.
Can one encounter be a chance encounter, and two can it still be a chance encounter? Gu Yanze really thinks she's stupid!
Gu Yanze paid attention to his affection, and said serious nonsense: "The staff canteen also needs to be purchased." ”
"You make it up again!" Zhong Qing threw the cabbage at Gu Yanze, but Gu Yanze caught it steadily and put it in the cart, as if it was just fun between young couples.
Sure enough, the people who were still looking at them suspiciously just now looked away with a smile and did not accept this invisible dog food.
No matter how stupid they are, they know what is going on with the ambiguous smiles on their faces, so they choose things hatefully, push the cart to check out, and no longer care about Gu Yanze.
Helplessly, this person was very thick-skinned, and after refusing to let him settle the bill, he walked to the front with his long legs and cleaned up for her.
"Gu ......" wanted to call him by his name, but when he opened his mouth, he found that the occasion had a bad impact, and if he was recognized, the relationship between the two of them could not be explained, so he could only swallow the remaining two words.
When she got out of the supermarket, she stopped Gu Yanze angrily and asked, "Why do you always follow me today?" From the mountains to the supermarket, are you spying on me? ”
"No, it's just a chance encounter." Gu Yanze insisted that it was a chance encounter, and he didn't even blink his eyes, "Maybe it's fate." ”
"That's also bad fate!" Zhong Qing puffed his waist and reached out to grab something from his hand, but only half of his pocket was snatched.
"Let go." Zhong Qing glanced at him obliquely, his gaze swept over Gu Yanze's perfect side face, and the anger in his heart disappeared by two points, but the wounded mental strength did not relax.
Gu Yanze held the other half of the bag tightly, and walked towards the direction of the Zhong family with his long legs, reminding her in a low voice: "The longer you stop here, the more likely you are to be recognized." ”
Sure enough, this sentence successfully made Zhong Qing give up the struggle, looked left and right, and was sure that no one recognized her, so she quickened her pace to keep up with Gu Yanze, and the two of them went home with the bag left and right.
Seeing her move, Gu Yanze felt a pain in his heart for no reason, but he chose not to say it.
However, when the two returned to Zhong's house, Gu Yanze's natural enemy happened to be sitting on the sofa, and at a glance, he saw two people outside the security door, almost side by side.
Seeing their figures appear together, Zhong Zong couldn't sit still for an instant, jumped off the sofa, and rushed out
He pushed open the door, snatched the bag from Gu Yanze's hand, pulled them apart, held Zhong Qing who did not stand firm with one hand, and stared at Gu Yanze viciously and warned: "You, keep your distance from Xiaoqing!" Keep your distance! ”
He didn't look at it for a moment, Gu Yanze stuck to it, and didn't keep his distance, so what's the matter?
"I also met a little love by chance, did Brother Zong misunderstand?" Gu Yanze let him snatch the bag, anyway, the person has already been sent home, so it's better to stay a little longer.
Zhong Zong turned sideways, blocked Zhong's figure, and rolled his eyes: "The misunderstanding was also deliberately caused by someone." ”
He didn't believe that it would be such a coincidence, Gu Yanze could cross such a long distance to come here and meet a little love.
"Gu Shao, if I'm not mistaken, you just promised me that you wouldn't have unnecessary interactions with Xiaoqing, and you broke your promise so quickly?"
Gu Yanze's explanation, in Zhong Zong's opinion, was a quibble, purely to deceive the petty feelings and provoke their relationship by the way.
Trying to search for the unnecessary meeting in his mind, Gu Yanze chuckled: "If it's just a chance encounter, how can Brother Zong determine whether it is necessary?" ”
Zhong Zong's hostility towards him was deeper than he thought, but for the sake of love, he could only fight back slightly.
"Sneaking and playing tricks, it's really your Gu Shao's style!" Zhong Qing wanted to say something behind him, but Zhong Zong reached out and pressed it back, and retorted sharply.
Seeing that the smell of gunpowder between the two was getting heavier and heavier, Zhong Qing could only vigorously push his brother away and poke his head out.
"Brother, I bought a lot of vegetables, let's cook." Zhong Qing pulled Zhong Zong and walked in, and nodded politely to Gu Yanze through the three-finger-wide gap, "Thank you Gu Shao for sending me back, you should go back early." ”
After speaking, no matter how Gu Yanze's face changed, he slammed the door shut, leaving Gu Yanze, who was lost and depressed, standing outside the door for a long time.
It wasn't until he heard the sound of conversation inside that Gu Yanze seemed to wake up from a dream. He looked at the figure inside and swayed, his eyes lonely.
Does Xiaoqing really not want to see him? Is he still not as good as Zhong Zong?
