Gu Jiayin took a bath and dried her hair, and Lu Jingxiu had already changed into dry clothes. It's just that his hair is still dripping down, and in order to match his embarrassed image, he sneezes loudly.

Gu Jiayin couldn't help but feel a little guilty, there was only one bathroom at home, she had forgotten about Lu Jingxiu just now, and she had been rubbing in it for so long.

She hurriedly said to him, "Go and take a hot bath too." ”

Lu Jingxiu said "um", got up and walked into the bathroom.

If this happened to me before, the two of them might have bathed together without separating each other. But now, they can only keep their distance like ordinary friends.

Lu Jingxiu hurriedly turned on the hot water and flushed it, and his body quickly warmed up. He wiped his hair, it was half dry quickly, but it didn't have to be as troublesome as Gu Jiayin's long hair.

When Lu Jingxiu came out of the bathroom, he found Gu Jiayin sitting by the floor-to-ceiling window, absentmindedly shaking the red wine glass in his hand, looking at the rain outside.

The rain hit the glass, making a muffled crashing sound, accompanied by the whistling of the wind, which was not pleasant. The dim floor lamp emitted a soft brilliance, hitting her slightly thin body, looking lonely and lonely.

Lu Jingxiu looked at Gu Jiayin quietly for a long time, and for some reason, some sad sorrow suddenly surged in his heart.

He turned to get a glass, then walked over to her and sat down, and poured himself a glass of wine without a second glance.

Gu Jiayin took a sip of red wine slowly, and said softly, "You've never been angry with me before. ”

Lu Jingxiu chuckled in his heart, he had just been stunned by Gu Jiayin's act of not caring for his body, so he yelled at her, but now he was a little weak-hearted.

He was carefully wording, thinking about saying something to make up for the mistake just now, but he heard Gu Jiayin's clear voice ringing in his ears, "Do you know what I've been thinking about the most during this time?" ”

Lu Jingxiu was stunned for a moment, and subconsciously asked rhetorically, "What is it?" ”

Gu Jiayin's gaze was a little confused, as if she was thinking about the past, but she didn't seem to think about anything.

"We've never had a fight before, and before that incident, I never even saw the way you got angry at me. But lately, we've been arguing a lot, and you're no longer hiding your anger or trying to please me. At first I was angry and thought how could you do this to me? But then I thought, we've already had a falling out, why can't you do this to me? It wasn't until I finally calmed down and looked at our relationship from an outsider's perspective that I realized that we were not equal to each other. You've always been accommodating, accommodating, submissive, and centered on me. And I'm used to receiving, and I've been unconsciously squandering your accommodation and tolerance for me, which is actually wrong. ”

Lu Jingxiu didn't know why Gu Jiayin said this, but he was inexplicably panicked in his heart, and he asked cautiously tentatively, "Don't you like me to be good to you?" ”

Gu Jiayin chuckled, "Of course I like you to spoil me, but in a relationship, you can't be the only one who spoils me." One party only cares about paying, the other party only cares about enjoyment, after a long time, the party who pays more will be tired, and the relationship will naturally crack. ”

Lu Jingxiu drank the wine in the cup in annoyance, and asked in a deep voice, "What do you want to say?" ”

Gu Jiayin paused for a moment and said uncertainly, "I just suddenly felt that it seemed that I could understand the matter of cheating." Of course, I'm not saying that this matter can be forgiven, but I just feel that it can be understood. ”

Lu Jingxiu didn't care that Gu Jiayin was looking through the problems that happened between them, reflecting on why such problems happened, and looking for reasons from himself.

Just hearing her mention that incident again, he was slightly irritable in his heart, and he was anxious to defend himself, "I repeat, I didn't cheat." I drank too much that day, had no idea what was going on, and I didn't make it to the end. ”

Gu Jiayin couldn't hear him say this, she had seen it with her own eyes, why could he still make excuses for himself? Isn't it good to admit mistakes generously?

She retorted unconvinced, "Cheating is cheating, drinking too much is cheating, and failing to do it is also cheating." ”

Lu Jingxiu was afraid that the atmosphere that had finally eased up would be ruined by this topic again, so he hurriedly begged for mercy, "Okay, okay, I'm sorry, I was wrong." Let's stop talking about it, can't we say something happy? ”

Gu Jiayin was slightly stunned, and then showed a helpless wry smile.

You see, in the end, it was Lu Jingxiu who bowed her head first and apologized first, and she was used to being flattered.

Lu Jingxiu has spoiled her, she is so used to it that she is about to be inseparable from him, what a terrible thing.

Gu Jiayin raised the red wine glass in her hand, raised her head, and the bitter liquid slid down her throat and flowed into her heart.

*

When Gu Jiayin woke up the next morning, it was already sunshine. The scorching sun dried the water marks on the road, as if yesterday's heavy rain that seemed to tear the sky apart had not come to this world.

Gu Jiayin stretched out in the sunlight, got up and opened the window, letting fresh air pour into the room. She stood by the window and did a few stretches to sober herself up before pacing out of the bedroom.

As soon as she stepped out of the room, she heard voices coming from the kitchen. She walked over and saw that it was Lu Jingxiu making breakfast.

He wore a white shirt made of linen, which looked lazy and extravagant, which made such a pyrotechnic thing as cooking suddenly become elegant.

Gu Jiayin thought that if his handsome appearance, which even cooks, was seen by those who admired him, he was afraid that he would be even more impressed by his charm and rush up.

Lu Jingxiu saw Gu Jiayin leaning against the door and looking at him, so he turned his head and said to her with a gentle smile, "Wait a minute, it'll be fine right away." ”

The corners of his mouth were raised, his clear eyebrows and eyes were crooked, and there was a gentle and doting smile on his face, which made Gu Jiayin slightly trance. She quickly withdrew her gaze, stopped looking at him, and left as if she were running away.

It didn't take long for Lu Jingxiu to come out with a prepared breakfast.

There is her favorite mushroom and chicken porridge, her favorite half-boiled omelette, her favorite sausage, and a refreshing cold side dish, Gu Jiayin can't help but move her appetite.

She buried her head in just two bites, remembered something, raised her head and reminded Lu Jingxiu, "Ah, by the way, we haven't been back for a long time, the things in the refrigerator should be cleaned up, and some expired ones have to be thrown away." ”

Gu Jiayin's words made Lu Jingxiu's heart warm, he felt that she still cared about their common family, so he thought of these trivial matters.

He smiled slightly and opened his lips slightly, "Well, don't worry, I have already cleaned the refrigerator before leaving, and I went out to buy these ingredients in the morning." ”

Gu Jiayin couldn't help but be slightly surprised, if he bought the things back and made them well, then he would have gotten up early enough. Thinking that he got up early to make breakfast, she slept lazily and ate ready-made, which was really a bit ashamed.

She nodded and said nothing. But in his heart, he was complaining that since he had already gone out, why didn't he buy a ready-made breakfast and come back to make it himself, it was not too troublesome.

But having said that, when it comes to cooking, Gu Jiayin is still very convinced of Lu Jingxiu.

The two of them are both young masters and young ladies from rich backgrounds, and their fingers do not touch the spring water, and before they left home and became independent, where did they do housework by themselves.

They started to learn to cook because when they just graduated, both of them were cut off from their financial resources by their families, and their jobs were just starting out, and they earned very little. So in order to save money, I can only cook and eat by myself, after all, I can't afford takeout, and I can't eat instant noodles at once.

Gu Jiayin feels that cooking is also a matter of talent. For example, she can't, she follows the recipe again and again, and in the end it is also dark cuisine. But Lu Jingxiu also followed the recipe and was able to make a full banquet of the Manchu and Han Dynasty.

Gu Jiayin remembered that at that time, she also teased Lu Jingxiu, saying that if his career development was not going well, he could still become a chef.

Lu Jingxiu smiled and asked her to rest assured, with his craftsmanship, he would not be hungry for her whole life.

A lifetime, what a nice and ridiculous word.

After breakfast, Gu Jiayin and Lu Jingxiu went out together. Lu Jingxiu went to drive, and Gu Jiayin stood at the door waiting for him.

"Gu Jiayin? It's really you! ”

Gu Jiayin heard a familiar voice, so she turned her head to look, only to see Wen Zhan walking down from the car and walking in front of her in three or two steps.

She never thought that she would actually see Wen Zhan here, which really surprised her, "Wen Zhan, why are you here?" ”

Wen Zhan smiled and pointed to the house next to her, "I live here, but why are you here?" ”

This kind of coincidence really made Gu Jiayin couldn't help but exclaim, "I also live here, you just moved here, right?" We'll be neighbors from now on! ”

"Huh?" Wen Zhan was puzzled, "But I've been living here for a while, and there has been no one next door, so I thought it was an empty house." ”

Gu Jiayin explained with a smile, "Oh, we have been living here before, but it was only recently that the old man wanted us to go back to the Lu family to live for a while, so he temporarily went over there." ”

"That's right." Wen Zhan smiled, and the smile was so warm that the sun was darkened. Gu Jiayin just looked at it, and felt full of energy, and his mood became as bright as his smile.

Wen Zhan opened the car door and invited Gu Jiayin, "It's better to be in a hurry than to be in a hurry, I'll send you to work." ”

Gu Jiayin just wanted to refuse, showing that she was not alone, and Lu Jingxiu's car stopped in front of her in a gorgeous and domineering posture.

Lu Jingxiu stepped out of the car, strode to Gu Jiayin's side, took her in his arms, looked at Wen Zhan's eyes full of defensiveness, and with a trace of disdain and provocation, his voice was cold and hard, "Don't bother Mr. Wen to send my wife to work." ”

His voice was cold, and my lady's words were very heavy, and there was a cold breath all over his body, which gave him a hint of coolness in the middle of summer.

Wen Zhan was not deterred by Lu Jingxiu's unfriendly or even hostile attitude, but still smiled gently and said goodbye to the two of them.

Gu Jiayin really couldn't understand Lu Jingxiu's almost hostile attitude towards Wen Zhan, so she couldn't help but ask him on the way, "You seem to have a lot of hostility towards Wen Zhan, but as far as I know, there shouldn't be a holiday between you, right?" ”

Even if it is a rival in love, this reaction is too much, after all, the winner of the beauty is Lu Jingxiu, and the person who should be more hostile is Wen Zhan.

Lu Jingxiu only replied lightly, "It's nothing, I just think this person is scheming, his smile is hypocritical, and he can't get used to it." ”

Gu Jiayin was speechless, she had known Lu Jingxiu for so many years, how could she not know that he was still a person who judged people by his appearance, and he was so naïve?
