Chapter 415 Long time no see

Lin Shili looked at her.

She also looked at Lin Shili.

As if they were trying to identify something, or as if they were secretly competing with each other, no one looked away.

No one spoke. The hotel lobby was very quiet late at night, with only the clicking of the staff's mice.

"Please keep your room card. The elevator is in front, turn right and go straight. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions." Finally, it was the staff who broke the delicate atmosphere.

Gu Nan was the first to look away, took the room card and said thank you.

Then he put his ID card and wallet into his bag, but did not immediately turn around to look for the elevator. Instead, he pressed the button on his phone again, and this time it finally turned on successfully.

Ding Dong Ding Dong Ding Dong——

Message alerts rang out one after another.

Gu Nan clicked on it and found that except for a few messages from colleagues and team leaders, most of them were sent by Lin Qin.

During the hours she lost contact, she received dozens of messages from the other party, and there were two voice calls thirty minutes ago.

But the person who was talking incessantly on the phone did not respond at this moment.

Gu Nan looked over again and saw Lin Shili standing in the middle of the hall, tall and straight, like a wooden stake being punished.

In a quick glance a few years ago, Lin Shili was wrapped tightly and sitting in a wheelchair, so Gu Nan couldn't see his face clearly.

Looking closely at this moment, Gu Nan discovered that he had a face very similar to Lin Jingchun, especially his eyes, which were affectionate enough even without anger or smile.

At this moment, he was dazed, with a mixture of decadent depression, a bit like Qi Yan who was locked outside the door on a snowy night in late winter.

The feeling of seeing the shadows of two people in one person is like seeing flowers in the fog, strange and unreal.

After a long time, Gu Nan stood up straight and said first: "Long time no see."

This call successfully broke the deadlock. Lin Shili subconsciously took two steps forward and continued, "Long time no see."

His tone sounded a little anxious. Gu Nan smiled and said, "Sorry, my flight was delayed and I lost my charger. I didn't have time to message you. Is dinner to your taste?"

"It's delicious. Have you eaten? Are you hungry? I packed some food, all of which you like." Lin Shili picked up the bag in his hand, which contained three stacked take-out boxes.

Gu Nan had eaten the airplane meal and was not hungry now, but she did not refuse his kindness. "Thank you, I'll go back to the room to eat later."

Gu Nan borrowed a charger from the staff and was about to pull the suitcase, but Lin Shili grabbed the telescopic rod before her, and with a little force from his big hand, the suitcase moved to his side.

Gu Nan didn't argue with him and just thanked him.

The three of them entered the elevator. Gu Nan pressed the floor button first. Lin Shili glanced at his younger brother who was following him, then lowered his head and pressed the button for another floor.

They arrived in An City last night and booked a twin room in a star-rated hotel near Lian'an University. The room was not on the same floor as Gu Nan's double room.

Twin room floors come first.

Lin Shili didn't move.

Gu Nan didn't say anything either.

Lin Qin got off the elevator quietly and tactfully.

The elevator door closed, Lin Shili breathed a sigh of relief, and turned his head to glance at Gu Nan beside him.

Gu Nan had been staring straight ahead since he entered the elevator, and hadn't shown anything unusual until this moment, as if she had tacitly agreed to him following her upstairs.

A single man and a single woman were walking together late at night. Lin Shili couldn't help but let his thoughts wander, thinking about all sorts of things.

Gu Nan has always shown great interest in his body, but due to ancestral teachings, he never overstepped the line no matter how emotional he was.

Today, they meet again after a long separation, and Gu Nan's attitude towards him is still unclear. What will she do? Does she still like him?

Lin Shili withdrew his gaze, but couldn't help but secretly look at her from the elevator door.

Our meeting tonight was purely accidental. There was no dinner together and confession of everything as we had imagined, nor was there a dramatic tearful handshake to recognize each other. The simple words "goodbye" seemed to have said everything that needed to be said.

Lin Shili was very curious whether Gu Nan was also nervous about tonight's encounter.

He thought it was a very secretive glance.

But she didn't expect to meet Gu Nan's eyes.

The silver-gray elevator door was blurry, but it made those eyes appear particularly dark, as if hiding a swirling whirlpool that was about to lure him in and drown him.

He didn't know when it started, but Gu Nan was also looking at him, or maybe Gu Nan had always been looking at him, but he didn't notice.

"bite--"

The elevator has arrived.

Lin Shili was shocked, and the breath of relief he had let out came back instantly.

He realized belatedly that Gu Nan at this moment had different characteristics from her in another world: silence, restraint, and a fierce aggressiveness that was rarely seen before.

Lin Shili's heart beat faster and he felt a little dizzy.

Gu Nan didn't notice Lin Shili's subtle abnormality. He walked out of the elevator first, identified the direction briefly, and quickly found the room.

After opening the door with the room card, Gu Nan did not push the door open immediately. Instead, he turned around and asked Lin Shili:

"Are you single now?"

Lin Shili was caught off guard by this sudden question, and his already dizzy head seemed even more confused.

He was a little slow to look over, and seeing Gu Nan's serious expression, he felt his breathing tighten, "Yes."

Gu Nan got a satisfactory answer and smiled slightly. "It's a bit presumptuous, but please forgive me. I won't let a person of the opposite sex who has a partner into my room."

A reasonable yet ambiguous explanation, Lin Shili knew the message revealed by this sentence.

He blushed and nodded in agreement.

Gu Nan inserted the room card, turned on two lights, charged his mobile phone, and went into the bathroom to wash his hands.

Lin Shili put the suitcase next to the shoe cabinet and took a quick look around the room.

It is a standard double room with a big snow-white bed, a long grey fabric sofa, a black round low table next to the sofa, and a set of desks and chairs against the wall. The colour scheme is business-like and the decoration is minimalist. It is obvious that this is the room that workers would book on a business trip.

Except for the bathroom, of course. Lin Shili looked at the glass wall that was so big that it could reveal the entire bathtub, and turned his head away uncomfortably.

Gu Nan washed his hands and came out. He picked up two bottles of mineral water from the shoe cabinet, walked to the sofa and sat down, handing one bottle to Lin Shili.

Lin Shili wasn't thirsty, so he casually laid down on the sofa and bent over to unpack the box for Gu Nan. "It's getting late, let's eat something first."

Gu Nan responded, then relaxed his body and leaned half into the sofa, looking at him quietly.

His fingers were long and bony, his skin was very thin, and the blue veins were clearly visible. Perhaps because of the short recovery period, his muscles had not grown, and the white T-shirt on his body felt a little loose.

He had a straight nose and a beautiful profile, and he'd put on makeup and styled his hair, thinking he was taking tonight's meeting very seriously. It was just that the weather was too hot, and we'd waited too long, so the makeup looked a little unnatural.

But the lip gloss is a very good choice, a very moist watery red, which looks like two delicious peach petals on the plump lips.

In comparison, her image is so casual.

"Okay." Lin Shili looked up and found that Gu Nan was staring at his lips without blinking. He felt embarrassed and his face turned red instantly.

He was very familiar with this look.

In the past, Gu Nan often looked at him like this, like a hunter looking at a favorite prey.

Especially at this moment, the spotlight in the room was not turned on, and the sofa was placed in the corner. In the dim light, her eyes were hidden behind her thick black eyelashes, calm, yet ready to strike.

But she looked serious, as if she had no idea how aggressive her gaze was.

"Sister..." He couldn't help but speak out, trying to stop her unscrupulous gaze, but his throat had become hoarse unknowingly, dry and tight.

Lin Shili swallowed twice subconsciously, but to little effect.

Although this body had never had any contact with Gu Nan, it seemed to be well aware of the love and entanglement, which were difficult to control.

Lin Shili simply avoided Gu Nan's sight and turned to look for the water thrown on the sofa.

His movements were a little anxious, even a little panicked.

But before he could get the bottle of water that was so close to him, Gu Nan had already leaned down.
