Chapter 67

Gu Zhun looked embarrassed. He finally looked painful and was finally willing to lower his noble head in front of Chen Shiman.

He also had to admit that he had nothing.

He cast his gaze into the empty sky, trying to give himself unnecessary encouragement.

But Chen Shiman didn't seem to want to do as he wished. Instead, he walked forward and gently lifted the other's chin with his fingers, forcing their eyes to meet. At this moment, Chen Shiman suddenly felt that he was the real master of this relationship.

He provided Gu Zhun with resources, showed goodwill in front of his brother, tolerated all of Gu Zhun's little tempers and badness, and accepted his scars and past.

"Gu Zhun, you asked me to stay. Do you have anything else to say?" Chen Shiman suddenly became very patient. Just by looking at Gu Zhun's conflicted look, he could stand here and stalemate with him for the whole night.

Chen Shiman's fingertips rubbed Gu Zhun's chin back and forth, trying to provoke ripples in his heart.

Gu Zhun, who was harassed by the fingers, finally hardened his heart, grabbed Chen Shiman's waist, and carried him into the house.

As soon as he entered the room, Chen Shiman was pinned against the door by Gu Zhun.

In the hot summer, this cold door actually brings a little coolness.

Gu Zhun did not turn on the lights, and the moonlight could not shine into the entrance hall. The two could only press their bodies tightly together in the darkness, then put their ears and noses together, feeling the heat coming from both sides.

"Say it again. If you don't explain clearly, I'll leave." Chen Shiman's voice was hoarse and sounded a little trembling.

Gu Zhun pinched Chen Shiman's earlobe and licked it uncontrollably, then played with Chen Shiman's lips with his fingers. "I was thinking on the way, I have to save money quickly so I can marry you."

In the darkness, Chen Shiman's ears instantly turned crimson and hot. He could only be thankful that it was dark, otherwise he would have been ashamed. Chen Shiman felt his heart pounding, and at this moment, he couldn't lift his hands at all, and he kept pulling at Gu Zhun's expensive suit.

He thought, Oh my God, it turns out that some people really can die from a rapid heartbeat.

"I suddenly feel a little inferior. You're so nice, I don't know what to do in front of you. You're pure and kind, beautiful and passionate. I was fascinated by you from the first moment I saw you. I wouldn't make such an unreasonable request to everyone who appeared in front of me. Now that I think about it, what I did at the time was really ungraceful, but I don't regret it. It was the fastest way to keep you by my side. Chen Shiman, I think I spoke a little chaotically. I just said whatever came to my mind."

"Maybe I should have noticed earlier that you were different. Whether it was my feelings for you, or the way you dressed, spoke, or behaved, I should have seen some clues. But I always deceived myself. Maybe in my subconscious, I felt that if I pierced this layer of paper, I would really not be worthy of you. Every time I faced you, I felt inferior."

"My family wasn't well-off, and I never received much love since I was a child. I wasn't the type of person to be liked by others, and I didn't know how to love someone. So I started trying it on you, clumsily and stubbornly believing that as long as I was better than you, you would always be by my side. So I couldn't wait to transform myself, to trap you by my side. But now it seems that's not possible. You have your own independent personality, and you have everything that I don't have. In front of you, I was always afraid. I pretended not to care, and I thought I fooled you, but I only fooled myself."

Chen Shiman was completely bewildered. What kind of nonsense was this? He was only certain of one thing: Gu Zhun was genuinely drunk. What were these words, "inferiority complex" and "trapped"? Did he think he was some kind of forced lover? He'd been brooding over such a small matter for so long, coming up with so many bizarre and bizarre things. Why hadn't he figured out everything from his past life?

Chen Shiman tilted his head and listened to Gu Zhun still saying things that made him want to slap him.

As a result, he did so.

It's just that the force is very small, gentle and soft, like flirting.

In the darkness, Chen Shiman saw Gu Zhun's head tilt slightly, but not too much.

"What are you chattering about? Are you going to do it or not?" Young Master Chen Shiman got angry. He had been a mistress for so long, and now he was finally able to sing the song of a liberated serf.

Gu Zhun froze for a moment, looking stupid, "I... I'm not..."

Chen Shiman showed a puzzled expression, "Then what are you doing? Why can't you say it simply? I'm uneducated, sorry." Chen Shiman really didn't want to talk about obscure things with Gu Zhun here. If he continued talking, it would probably be dawn.

If you like someone, you like him; if there is a misunderstanding, it is a misunderstanding; if you feel inferior, you feel inferior. For such a simple sentence, why write a long essay about it? I hate short essays the most.

"If you don't finish your words, I'm going to bed." Chen Shiman rolled his eyes in the night, pushed Gu Zhun's body away, and prepared to walk towards the bathroom.

"I like you, Chen Shiman." Gu Zhun finally said this, "But, I——"

A sweet fruity fragrance hit his face, and Gu Zhun felt someone holding his waist tightly.

"But what but? I'm so powerful, it's okay if you're a little weak." Chen Shiman stood on tiptoe and kissed Gu Zhun's chin. "Okay, it's too late. Let's go to bed after washing up."

After saying that, Chen Shiman let go of his hand and ran to the bathroom. If he hadn't met Gu Zhun, he would have fallen asleep for several hours.

Chen Shiman quickly finished washing herself. When she came out, she saw Gu Zhun sitting on the sofa, scratching his head and looking helpless. He looked a little funny.

The moment Chen Shiman's gaze fell on Gu Zhun, the other party immediately raised his blurry eyes.

"Chen Shiman——"

Gu Zhun stood up, clenched and unclenched his fists, leaned forward, but his feet remained stuck to the ground.

Chen Shiman wiped the water off his head and placed the towel on the marble table. "What else do you want to say?"

His tone was so gentle, as if he was guiding Gu Zhun to say something.

He really wanted to hear Gu Zhun say something else.

But Gu Zhun shook his head and sat down dejectedly.

Chen Shiman couldn't catch his breath for a moment, and slammed his hands on the cold table. He said coldly, "You sleep alone tonight. I'll go next door."

As he spoke, Chen Shiman walked to the entrance and began to change his shoes.

Gu Zhun sat there stiffly, and only when he heard the sound of the door closing did he realize that Chen Shiman was not sleeping here tonight.

In a moment he walked to the door to check the surveillance, only to find that Chen Shiman went to the house opposite without looking back.

Gu Zhun: ...

No wonder...

Gu Zhun sat down at the entrance. In fact, he had a lot to say to Chen Shiman.

He used to not understand why some people would keep their mouths shut, but when it happened to him, he realized that every time he opened his mouth, it took great courage.

You need to consider whether the other party will accept it, whether it is reasonable, and whether it will really solve these problems.

Gu Zhun thought that Chen Shiman could understand what he said before, but now he has made things a mess.

Gu Zhun took out the iced soda water from the refrigerator and drank it down, his mind full of the scene of him at the dinner party.

The upper class paid him to perform a show to entertain people, and he needed to bow and nod and shed tears of gratitude; in the endless stream of business activities, he was actually the most inconspicuous existence; in that weird dinner party, Gu Zhun was a marginal figure, he watched Chen Shiman thrive, and saw the coldness in Chen Shiman's brother's eyes.

The distance of a glass of wine is actually the matter of an entire class.

Gu Zhun returned to the bedroom, which was extremely tidy, without even a trace of human life.

Since giving the house to Chen Shiman, he rarely comes to Jinshui Bay.

Because of the changes in their relationship during this period, they had not been to Jinshui Bay again. Today, he suddenly proposed to come to Jinshui Bay, but he just wanted to talk things out in the environment where they first started.

He didn't know why, a usually open and honest person, was now so slow.

Gu Zhun sighed softly, and seemed to hear Chen Shiman's gentle whisper in his ears. He lay on the bed and took a deep breath, but there was nothing left. Finally, Gu Zhun raised his upper body, went out in slippers and knocked on the door opposite.

Boom boom boom——

Boom boom boom——

No one answered.

A lot happened that night, but it was just one night.

*

When Chen Shiman woke up, he ordered a takeout for himself first, and then wondered whether he should order one for Gu Zhun. Out of humanitarianism, he ordered an extra one.

Then when the call for takeout came, Chen Shiman opened the door and saw Gu Zhun sleeping at his doorstep.

Chen Shiman: ...

Seeing this, Chen Shiman quickly checked the surveillance footage from last night.

Not long after he came back, Gu Zhun ran out and knocked on the door, but Chen Shiman was too sleepy to hear it at all.

Now, Chen Shiman looked at the person sleeping on the ground, and was not in a hurry to wake him up. Instead, he went downstairs to get the takeaway. When he came back, he found that Gu Zhun had woken up and was standing obediently at his door.

Chen Shiman: "Come in and have something to eat."

If you sleep on the floor all night, you might get some cold air into your body.

Gu Zhun nodded and said, "I'll go brush my teeth first."

Chen Shiman nodded, and just as he went back to put his things in place, Gu Zhun walked in, sat down on the stool properly, not daring to look anywhere.

Chen Shiman suddenly found it funny, but then he thought, how could Gu Zhun be such a twisted person? It was obviously not a big deal, so why did he act like he was a heartless man?

So Chen Shiman decided to give the other party a way out: "What do you think of this house?"

Chen Shiman was just asking, but Gu Zhun asked back, "Are you going to give it to me?"

puff--

Chen Shiman almost spit out the soy milk.

What the hell is this.

"What's been going on in your head all day? Did you lose your brain while filming these days?" Chen Shiman said with a look of disappointment. "I just bought some this morning. You can eat it yourself."

Gu Zhun followed his gaze and said that he bought something casually, but his portion consisted of fat-reducing meals, which were obviously carefully put together.

"Then you--" Gu Zhun took a bite of the food and spoke in a whisper.

Chen Shiman took a bite of the siu mai and said, "Gu Zhun, let's eat first. I don't want to argue with you while we're eating."

"OK."
