146 I want to marry you
What does Nalan Shiyu do when he comes to the old text? Chu Xiao frowned and thought about it, until Gu Ziyu went downstairs, and he didn't come up with a reasonable reason. Nalan is doing academic research, and she came to Shanghai to work as the editor-in-chief of a publishing house, so is it possible that she wants to cooperate with Guwen?
"What are you thinking, so focused?" Gu Ziyu took Chu Xiao's hand, and the two walked outside the company, and the driver had already driven the car to the door.
"Nalan Shiyu came to you, is it a matter of work?"
"She's looking for the editor-in-chief, not me." Gu Ziyu didn't see Nalan Shiyu today, but he knew that there had been cooperation between the publishing house recently.
"I really can't believe that she came to Shanghai from BJ just to work with Guwen."
"I've explicitly rejected her." Gu Ziyu raised his eyebrows after speaking, and looked at Chu Xiao, "But since you are going abroad, it means that you trust me very much, and when you see a potential rival in love at this time, do you plan to be jealous?" ”
Chu Xiao leaned on Gu Ziyu's shoulder and said in a low voice: "Exotic love will face a lot of trouble, if we can resist all kinds of temptations, it just proves that our relationship can be indestructible." ”
Chu Xiao and Gu Ziyu sat in the car and drove to the bar where the party was located.
As soon as Chu Xiao and Gu Ziyu entered the bar, a salute "crackled", and flashes flying in the sky fell on Chu Xiao and Gu Ziyu, which reminded people that there was such a custom when they got married.
"Liang Mu, you don't need to be so exaggerated, right?" Chu Xiao looked at Liang Mu while sorting out the glitter on his body.
The bar was chartered today, and all the friends who came were familiar, Chu Xiao thought that it was just a drink and a heart-to-heart conversation between friends, but he didn't expect Liang Mu and Liang Mu to arrange the scene like a wedding scene.
Liang Muxuan was in this bar to help Chu Xiao hold a farewell party, mainly because he took a fancy to the band in this bar, and with Chu Xiao's character, he must like this band. Rarely cheerful jazz music, it is lazy and relaxing.
They sat close to the stage, watching the band on stage and drinking wine.
Considering Chu Xiao's recent rescue, the wine Liang Mu prepared for her was still a mocktail.
"Thanks, Liang Mu."
"It's just a party for friends, what is there to say thank you."
Liang Mu's gaze swept over the ring on Chu Xiao's hand, and asked with a smile, "So how did Gu Ziyu propose to you?" ”
Chu Xiao glanced down at the ring on his hand and knew that Liang Mu had misunderstood.
"It's not an engagement ring." Chu Xiao bit his lip, looked at Gu Ziyu, who was pulled by Liang Mu's friend not far away to talk about cooperation, and asked, "Did he talk to you about proposing to me?" ”
"Let me help guide me, I don't understand your words, you have worn this ring, why isn't it an engagement ring?"
"This is a gift from him to me for graduate school."
Liang Mu immediately understood, and curiously probed: "Is it possible that you are like me, unmarried?" ”
“…… I'm just not interested in getting married for the time being, but I didn't say I wouldn't get married. ”
"If you want me to say, it's really nothing good to get married, marriage is bound and there is no freedom. The so-called love is often fleeting, there is no special background of love, most of the time, this is just hormones. Liang Mu said to himself, and when his eyes flickered over Gu Ziyu, he realized that he had said the wrong thing, and hurriedly said, "But if you really meet the love of this life, you can also get married with confidence." ”
Liang Mu picked up a glass of wine and said to Chu Xiao, "Let's have a drink." ”
"I've recently quit drinking." Chu Xiao picked up a glass of juice from the table and clinked glasses with Liang Mu.
"By the way, I plan to find some artists who are suitable for cultural real estate, if you encounter anything at the University of Southern California and are willing to come to China for development, please remember to help me pay attention."
"No problem." Chu Xiao looked at Gu Ziyu and said, "Actually, it's good for Gu Ziyu to have a friend like you, he has changed a lot from before, maybe he was also influenced by you." ”
"I don't dare to invite this credit, Gu Ziyu's character, everyone who knows him knows that he is cold, but it is different for you." Liang Mu drank wine and thought deeply, "I never think that one person wants to change for another, let alone someone like Gu Ziyu, but I really didn't expect that the literati could have such a big change when they fell in love." ”
"I don't want him to change his career direction for my sake." Chu Xiao is most worried about this, in Chu Xiao's heart, Gu Ziyu should have persistently pursued art, which she and Nalan Shiyu have the same idea. Since the two dated, Gu Ziyu changed her career plan for her little by little and embarked on a path similar to Gu Hua.
"It's his own choice, and you don't have to feel guilty or inappropriate about it." Liang Mu can see it, "Artists often benefit future generations, and Gu Ziyu is willing to manage the company for the benefit of the present." Take the real estate project he did for me, so far, I have never seen a plan as beautiful and implemented as he gave him. ”
"I'd like to be as open-minded as you."
"Life is too short to be happy, that's right."
Chu Xiao didn't drink that night, so she could see it very clearly, her friend was reluctant to go to the United States to study, and the loneliness in Gu Ziyu's eyes, Chu Xiao saw it all.
Chu Xiao pulled Gu Ziyu into the dance floor, and under the leadership of Gu Ziyu, she barely followed the beat, and the two of them were very close, looking at each other from time to time. When staring at Gu Ziyu's eyes, Chu Xiao could still feel his heart beating faster.
"What were you talking to Liang Mu about?" Gu Ziyu asked.
"He said he didn't expect you to change for me." Chu Xiao tilted his head slightly and looked at Gu Ziyu.
“…… Chu Xiao, I am a selfish person, you know this, and my love for you is also selfish. Studying in Los Angeles is your pursuit, and I support that. I've been thinking about it for a long time these days, and I can tell me again unequivocally that I like you and I want to marry you. If you're in a hurry right now, then wait until you're done in graduate school. If you figure it out one day, if you will never set foot in marriage in the future...... I also want you to tell me explicitly. ”
When Gu Ziyu said this, he was still tender, but Chu Xiao didn't know why, and that complicated emotion came to his heart again.
It wasn't until two days later, when Chu Xiao and Gu Ziyu kissed goodbye at the airport, that Chu Xiao finally figured out why he was unwilling to set foot in marriage now.
The failure in the workplace made Chu Xiao feel humble again, and she didn't want to enter the same stage of writing with Gu Ziyu at such a time.
Chu Xiao watched the earth gradually fade away, leaning against the window and thinking silently, she hoped that this study journey could bring her salvation, at least so that she could have the courage to move to the next stage of her life.
