CHAPTER XXIII
Today, I was angry in the company again, and it happened that Guan Shuyu organized a dormitory dinner, and Yu Chu agreed without saying a word. Watching the ticking clock on the table shake to six o'clock, he got up and swaggered away.
Guan Shuyu set the location at a bar in the center of the city, saying that if she didn't get drunk tonight, she wouldn't return.
Yu Chu was across the road and saw "1001 Night" from a distance, these big characters were particularly eye-catching in the gray night. It was just night, and there were not many pedestrians on the road, and there was only one entertainer in front of the store to welcome customers. Yu Chu walked into the bar and soon saw them on the card table on the right.
Guan Shuyu waved to her from afar. It's only been a few months since I saw such a familiar scene, and I felt like a world away.
Yu Chu put down his bag, his nerves relaxed, and his hollowed out mind was full again, and Yu Chu felt that this was right.
"I'm waiting for you." Guan Shuyu complained, but she didn't forget to pour water for Yu Chu in her hands.
Yu Chu took the water and took a sip: "During the rush hour after work, the traffic jam, I still want to say, why are you so fast." ”
"Won't you go out half an hour early?" Guan Shuyu complained
Yu Chu let out a sigh and said: "We are slaves, we don't dare, we are already walking on thin ice, and we don't know how to converge, don't you want to mix with me." ”
Liang Sheng peeled a shrimp, put it on Yu Chu's plate and said, "Is it so miserable?" ”
"But also, the platform is good, the competition is big, there is nothing to blame, a big company like yours, others want to get in, there is no shortage of people at all, and you have to do everything possible to stay when you enter, so everyone has a ghost, and the workplace is like a battlefield."
Yu Chu smiled: "You are quite transparent, why didn't you stop me at the beginning." ”
Isn't this also the result of lessons learned over time? Before I came out to work, I didn't know about these things. ”
Yu Chu seemed to get a hint of comfort: "It turns out that you are self-reflection and summary after being beaten by society, and it seems that your company is not doing well." ”
"I'm okay, fortunately, I decided to make a salted fish that doesn't turn over from the beginning, and I chose a place, a calm lake." Zhao Chen's slightly self-conscious answer seemed out of place.
Yu Chu was just about to answer, and the mobile phone on the desktop rang, and Shen Zhouhe's greeting was displayed on the screen: "Have you gotten off work?" ”
Yu Chu glanced at it, ignored it, and continued what he said just now: "Forget it, forget it, if you come out for fun, don't mention the worries at work." ”
"Come, let's have a toast first."
Shen Zhouhe didn't get a reply and sent a message over: "I said that we would have dinner together in the evening, and I will go over to find you." ”
At this time, Yu Chu remembered that Shen Zhouhe seemed to have said that he would come to eat with her this morning, but the bad things of the day came together, and she forgot about it. happened to be asked by her roommate, so she came out regardless of it, and she wanted to vent.
Yu Chu held his mobile phone, not knowing how to reply, or saying that he would go back now, tangled left and right.
Guan Shuyu sat next to her, and her eyesight was already excellent, and she saw all the messages sent by Shen Zhouhe. asked casually: "You made an appointment with Shen Zhouhe." ”
Yu Chu replied stunned: "Hmm~." ”
Liang Sheng asked, "Do you want to go back?" ”
Guan Shuyu said unrelentingly: "No, I just sat down, you guy who is heavy on color and light on friends." ”
Yu Chu weighed it in his heart, and still wanted to have a good time here. The work is not going well, he is excluded in the company, and he is an unliked existence, he has not told Shen Zhouhe about these, maybe she still defines Shen Zhouhe as a child in her bones, and feels that it is useless to tell him like this, and it will make him feel hypocritical. In front of him, she always unconsciously wants to maintain her best state, and she is unwilling to show any negative emotions, and sometimes she feels very tired.
Or is she inferior in her bones, afraid that others will find out her little imperfection and be abandoned, so she often takes the lead in abandoning others, so as to alleviate the degree of her injury, but she has never been able to see her weakness.
She thought for a while and typed out on the keyboard: "The company is working overtime tonight, it may be late, don't come to me, remember to eat by yourself." Then he calmly put down his mobile phone, and then answered Guan Shuyu's words just now and said, "No, I told him not to come." ”
"Let's move on."
Originally, Yu Chu didn't want to drink too much, he just wanted to take a sip and vent, but the atmosphere here was scorching, and one was not well controlled, the more he drank, the more he was happy, and no one else could stop him.
In the end, she lay on the table, unconscious, but when she woke up, she was in her own bed, Yu Chu didn't think about it, and automatically blamed Guan Shuyu and them for sending her back. Yu Chu looked at the familiar ceiling, a little overwhelmed, knocked his groggy head, and climbed up with his shaking body.
Walking to the living room, stunned, a familiar back was busy in the kitchen, "Shen Zhouhe." Yu Chu blurted out, his mind a little blank.
Shen Zhouhe glanced back at her, didn't say anything, and continued to move in his hands.
Yu Chu said: "Why are you here?" When did you come? Do you have no classes? ”
Shen Zhouhe still didn't answer, Yu Chu didn't think so, Shen Zhouhe has always been so cold, and he didn't feel strange. Yu Chu approached the bathroom and cleaned himself up before he walked out of the bathroom with a radiant face and a new life.
Then he walked up to Shen Zhouhe and asked, "What are you doing?" ”
Shen Zhouhe still didn't look at her, he said: "I cooked some porridge, drinking alcohol hurts my stomach, this nourishes my stomach." ”
Yu Chu was choked up, trying to recall last night's events, he shouldn't have been in last night's game! How do you know that you have been drinking, Yu Chu subconsciously sniffed his shoulder, and made sure that there was no smell of alcohol on his body. She was a little uncertain and a little weak-hearted, and asked tentatively, "You sent me back last night." ”
Shen Zhouhe finally looked at her and replied: "Hmm." "The eyes are clear and bright, which makes Yu Chu even more unreal. Yu Chu was a little apprehensive and self-suspicious: Then will Shen Zhouhe know that I lied to him about overtime yesterday. ”
Yu Chu wanted to justify himself, and worked hard to compile seamless words: "After working overtime yesterday, they asked me out, so I went out for two drinks." The voice was rare soft and indecisive, and she thought that Guan Shuyu would definitely not be able to say anything to him, so she bumped into her courage and had to be tempted.
Shen Zhouhe said: "Then why don't you tell me." ”
Yu Chuchang sighed in a long breath, he didn't know that he lied to him, and he disappeared just now and said, "It's too late, I didn't say it." ”
Yu Chu seemed to be flattering, and said, "Fortunately, you came." ”
Shen Zhouhe ignored her usual flattery, looked at her and said solemnly: "Can you stop drinking in the future, and don't go to those places, it's not safe." ”
Yu Chu didn't care: "How come, this time it's an accident, I'm measured.... ”
Before he finished speaking, he was interrupted by Shen Zhouhe: "Yu Chu." "It's like a request, and it's aggrieved, and it's angry. He said: "This time it was an accident, was it the same last time?" ”
"Last time." Yu Chu frowned, remembering that he had been drunk once last time at school. Yu Chu was helpless, after all, he was responsible for his own losses, and he was bumped into unconscious several times.
She took care of it, looked at Shen Zhouhe flatteringly, and said with a smile: "Okay, don't drink, and don't go to the bar, okay?" ”
Seeing her agree so readily, Shen Zhouhe was stunned, and originally wanted to use this to tell her, but now it was like a punch on the cotton.
looked at her beautiful face, and was at a loss, muttering in her heart: You're coaxing me again.
Since Yu Chu moved to Baiben Manor, he has devoted himself to the model of social animals, and most of the time Shen Zhouhe came all the way to find her without class. Yu was busy with work at the beginning, even on weekends, most of the time, they met for dinner, and then they were busy with their own work, and the number of meetings became less and less.
Shen Zhouhe mentioned several times that he wanted to move in with Yu Chu, and also asked about suitable houses around, but in the end Yu Chu refused.
Yu Chu said: "The school is too far away from here, it is very inconvenient for you, you are still young, just a sophomore, it will affect your studies." ”
"Be obedient, don't be willful."
Later, there were more and more things in the house, and every time he came over, he would deliberately bring his clothes and daily necessities, and every time he went back to school, he didn't take them away.
It wasn't until the wardrobe was full that Yu Chu realized it, and then complained to him: "Shen Zhouhe, you have too many clothes, and you can't fit in the wardrobe." Yu Chu took a closer look, and it was all the same style, gray and white.
Yu Chu was depressed, she was a girl, and she didn't have as many clothes as his, so it looked like she had moved all the wardrobes from his house.
Yu Chu couldn't help but shout at him when he was sorting out his clothes: "You have all your clothes here, do you still have clothes to wear." ”
"Yes."
Yu Chu scratched his head: "I haven't seen you wear this clothes, the next time you go back to school, remember to bring them back." ”
"Okay?"
Shen Zhouhe nodded obediently every time, and then there was no more...
Shen Zhouhe came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and Yu Chu was working overtime at the bar, so that Shen Zhouhe walked to his side, and she was still indifferent. Until a drop of water fell down and burst into a flower on her arm, Yu Chu raised her head. Seeing Shen Zhouhe who came out of the water hibiscus, his hair was still wet and hit his face, he was holding a towel, Dala was on his shoulder, and he wiped it from time to time, and the water droplets on his hair were crumbling.
"What's wrong?"
"What are you doing?" Shen Zhouhe looked strange, and talked about him a little left and right, as if he had nothing to say.
"A skincare product project, called Luo Makeup, is now doing the advertising and copywriting design of the mask series." Yu Chu frowned, uninspired, racking his brains to no avail. I couldn't help but yawn in annoyance.
Shen Zhouhe nodded, and then asked, "Have you been very busy lately?" ”
Yu Chu exhaled, looked at Shen Zhouhe very aggrieved and said with comfort: "Yes! Up to one's neck in something. After saying that, he couldn't help but yawn, this yawn lasted for a long time, and tears flowed down the corners of his eyes.
Shen Zhouhe's index finger was naturally attached and helped her wipe it.
Shen Zhouhe pursed his lips, his eyes drooped, and he said in a complaining tone: "Then how long will you be busy?" ”
Yu Chu put his hands around Shen Zhouhe's waist, his head resting on his stomach, and looked bad: "Come on." ”
Shen Zhouhe took advantage of the victory and asked, "Are you free on Friday?" I want to date you. ”
Yu Chu smiled, raised his head to look at him, and there was a bad prelude: "What's the matter?" ”
Shen Zhouhe wanted to speak and stopped, as if he was a little unhappy.
Yu Chu straightened up, slid down his arms with both hands, took his two hands, and rubbed his palms casually, as if coaxing: "It may not work on Friday, I have made an appointment with a customer, on Sunday, I will accompany you all day, how about it." ”
The light in Shen Zhouhe's eyes dimmed, and Yu Chu looked at him with a deep sense of loss in his eyes that was about to overflow, shaking his hand and saying, "What's the matter, I'm not happy, do you have to be on Friday?" But no, it's all agreed in advance. ”
Shen Zhouhe was helpless, sighed and said, "Okay, you are the busiest." ”
Yu Chu chuckled: "Why did you learn to be so yin and yang, this is very different from you!" Brother. ”
Shen Zhouhe shook off one of her hands, quickly and gently pinched Yu Chu's face, and threatened: "It's all said, don't call it this." ”
Yu Chu didn't pay attention to the painless offensive at all, she didn't believe that Shen Zhouhe would really hit her hard, which was why she was even more fearless.
She took the opportunity to say: "Then you laugh one, laugh one, I will call you brother." ”
Shen Zhouhe sternly refused, and simply said: "Don't." ”
How could Yu Chu let him go so easily, he was about to scratch his stomach when he got started, Shen Zhouhe dodged, she simply got up and chased after him: "Laugh one, laugh one laugh one." In the end, he simply pounced on the whole person and firmly clamped this person, fortunately, Shen Zhouhe was very cooperative and did not resist much, and it was possible that he was afraid that she would fall, so he reached out to protect her sides.
Yu Chu used his index finger to gently flick Shen Zhouhe's collagen-covered face and coquettishly: "Can you laugh?" Laugh at it. Every time he said "laugh", he flicked his face, and let Shen Zhouhe hide left and right, he just gritted his teeth and did not let go, living like a martyr, loyal and fearless.
"Okay, okay, it's my fault, I don't have the ability, I can't make you happy, it's my lack of ability, it's all my fault." It is estimated that the stalk of green tea has been too popular recently, and Yu Chu involuntarily acted on it.
Yu Chu glanced at Shen Zhouhe, saw that he was indifferent, and said in a complaining manner: "Now that my little brother has grown up, he is becoming less and less attentive to me, and he is becoming more and more indifferent. ”
Shen Zhouhe was still indifferent, letting her play freely, this one-man show was also embarrassing, and she lost interest.
Yu Chu yawned again, returned to a serious appearance, and said, "Don't tease you, it's late, hurry up and go to sleep." ”
Shen Zhouhe nodded, Yu Chu pushed him to the bedroom, and he went back and forth to the bar, ready to continue the night battle. Shen Zhouhe looked back at her suspiciously and asked, "Don't you sleep?" ”
Yu Chu smiled and said, "It's not okay, you go to sleep first, you have to go back to school tomorrow." Seeing Shen Zhouhe wandering at the door, Yu Chu waved his hand inward and added, "Go quickly." ”
There was only one table lamp left in the room, and Shen Zhouhe looked at the half-dark ceiling, feeling lost and empty in his heart like a feather floating in the boundless darkness. There is nothing that can carry it, it is solid to the ground, and it longs to hold on to something and let itself be done once and for all, otherwise it can only float forever. He didn't know what it was, but he was uneasy.
He closed his eyes, and for I don't know how long, it seemed like he had slept and it didn't seem to have slept, because his consciousness was running all the time. It wasn't until the bed on his right side, gently recessed, that his mind found the shore where it was moored, and he moved, and after a moment he was completely unconscious, and he really fell asleep.
