Lin Qingyan stared blankly at the eyes that were very close to his. The man's eyes were very beautiful, with a long and narrow shape, and fan-shaped double eyelids that were narrow at the inside and wide at the outside. Combined with his high brow bone, he looked very heroic and deep.
When he looks at someone intently, he appears exceptionally affectionate.
For example, right now.
Lin Qingyan felt her heart skip a beat, and she quickly looked away, lowering her eyes to try to appear calm, saying, "Mr. Gu, I can find a place to stay myself... I can't trouble you."
Gu Fei looked at the boy's trembling, long eyelashes, thought for a few seconds, and then said it was no trouble, "It's getting late, come back with me first, we'll make plans tomorrow." He paused, then asked in a questioning tone, "Okay?"
Master Gu is only used to giving orders to others and rarely speaks to people in this consultative tone.
Lin Qingyan finally nodded hesitantly. He simply couldn't refuse a man speaking to him in that tone and voice. If he stayed at Gu Fei's house, he would have more opportunities to verify his identity.
He subconsciously believed that this man would not hurt him.
Besides, he was genuinely poor, with not even a hundred yuan in his pocket. If he didn't go back with Gu Fei, he would really end up homeless, so this was the best option.
The two walked outside side by side. As they walked, Lin Qingyan suddenly felt like she had forgotten something and abruptly stopped. "Oh right, Mr. Gu, Brother Yu is still in the restroom. Shouldn't we wait for him?"
Upon hearing this, the man pursed his lips, seemingly somewhat displeased. The young man knew both him and An Yu at the same time, calling An Yu affectionately "Brother Yu," while addressing him politely as "Mr. Gu."
What exactly went wrong?
"An Yu isn't coming with us."
"Oh...I see."
Lin Qingyan hesitated for a moment, then Gu Fei grabbed his wrist and led him outside. The skin he touched was soft and delicate, and he couldn't help but tighten his grip.
Lin Qingyan's mind went blank for a moment as she stared blankly at the wrist held by the man. The warmth of his palm tinged her ears pink.
He quickly put An Yu's matter out of his mind.
Meanwhile, An Yu, who had been forgotten, excitedly emerged from the restroom and stood in the empty private room, looking around blankly. "How strange, where did everyone go? Brother Fei? Yan Yan?"
Just then, his phone vibrated twice in his pocket. He took it out and saw that Gu Fei had sent him two WeChat messages: a 200 yuan red envelope and a message: "I'm leaving now. Take a taxi home by yourself."
An Yu: ? ? ? !
Holy crap, this is ridiculous!
Two hundred yuan back? Why is Master Gu so stingy?
Lin Qingyan sat in the passenger seat, watching Gu Fei's phone vibrate incessantly as voice messages popped up, all from An Yu.
Gu Fei merely glanced at it, then calmly turned off his phone screen, started the car, and slowly drove onto the highway, disappearing into the nighttime traffic.
The carriage was quiet, and neither of them spoke. Gu Fei was a man of few words, and Lin Qingyan was also quiet, reserved, and slow to warm up.
Lin Qingyan was a very well-behaved child since he was a child. His relatives used to praise him for being well-behaved and sensible, but everyone preferred his lively and mischievous younger brother. He never seemed to be liked.
Although the air in the carriage was quiet, Lin Qingyan did not feel awkward; the atmosphere between the two was inexplicably harmonious.
Suddenly, a man's voice rang in my ears.
"Are you afraid of the sound of a camera shutter?" Although it was phrased as a question, the man's calm tone conveyed certainty. "Or rather, are you afraid of having your picture taken?"
He glanced at the boy beside him, his gaze gentle.
When An Yu was taking pictures, Gu Fei saw the boy's reaction. Subconscious reactions are the most genuine. After hearing the shutter sound, the boy's eyes were filled with panic and fear. It was definitely not as simple as just disliking taking pictures.
Lin Qingyan was surprised by the man's observational skills. Even though he had explained everything, the man still saw through him. But he couldn't admit it; it was a lingering effect from his past life. If he admitted it, he couldn't explain it anymore.
No one would be afraid of these things for no reason.
"No, that's not true. I just really haven't liked taking pictures since I was a child." The boy's tone and expression were very natural. When he was a star, he acted in a few movies and also studied acting seriously, so he does have acting skills.
Those netizens were only focused on criticizing him and ignored his acting skills. No matter how hard he tried to act, he would still be ridiculed as a decorative vase with only a pretty face.
Gu Fei's expression remained unchanged, whether he believed it or not. However, he didn't dwell on the issue and changed the subject: "We'll be there in about half an hour. You can take a nap first."
"good."
Lin Qingyan closed his eyes and leaned back in his seat, relaxing his posture. However, he had many things on his mind and his head was full of thoughts, so he was not sleepy.
Gu Fei glanced at the boy's face, then turned on the music in the car. It was a soothing English song that made people relax and had a hypnotic effect.
In addition, the man was driving the car steadily, and Lin Qingyan gradually became sleepy and fell asleep without realizing it, her head tilting to one side, next to the car door.
From Gu Fei's perspective, one can see the boy's soft and delicate profile. He is quiet and well-behaved when he is asleep. His face looks young, not like he is nineteen years old, and there is still a hint of immaturity and naivety between his features.
The man looked away and continued driving without changing his expression, but his hands on the steering wheel gripped the wheel tighter, revealing the turmoil in his heart.
The black Maybach drove through the bustling streets and gradually entered the quiet upscale villa area, finally stopping in front of the front gate of a detached villa.
The large, heavy iron gate opened, and the car slowly drove in.
Gu Fei turned off the car. The boy in the passenger seat was still asleep, breathing lightly. He stared at him intently, and unconsciously reached out and slowly moved his hand closer to the boy's cheek.
Just then, the boy's eyelashes fluttered twice, and then he opened his eyes, looking around at his surroundings with some confusion. "Mr. Gu, have we arrived?" he asked Gu Fei.
"Okay, let's get off."
Gu Fei got out of the car first and took out the suitcase from the trunk. Lin Qingyan stayed in the car for another half a minute until she was clear-headed before getting out.
Lin Qingyan subconsciously looked around. Although it was late at night, the lights were still on. He was standing in the front yard of the villa, which was very large. The villa was behind it, and it was still very large.
Although I haven't gone inside yet, it's already very beautiful just by looking at the outside.
Like a castle.
