"What?"
Some of the chaotic thoughts came to an abrupt end because of Chu Yigui's answer, and Wan Qiu asked back unconsciously.
"No romance."
Wan Qiu felt as if he had suddenly fallen into a foggy world. He couldn't see his hand in front of him and couldn't even tell whether he had his eyes open or not.
"Don't you like it? The kind of like in love?" Wan Qiu was completely lost.
"Yes." Chu Yigui said.
Wan Qiu thought carefully about their conversation and asked hesitantly, "Is it the kind of love that you want to kiss my mouth?"
"Yes." Chu Yigui said.
"Isn't that love?" Wan Qiu was even wondering, is it possible that besides people who are not in love, people also kiss?
But Chu Yigui did not answer.
Wan Qiu looked up at Chu Yigui, but didn't know what to ask.
Chu Yigui has always been like this, as if no one can understand his thoughts.
He seemed to be facing a strange wall. He didn't know what was behind the wall, nor did he know why he wanted to know what was behind the wall. The existence of the wall was enough to make him not mind.
Wan Qiu wanted to ask in more detail.
Why do I like you so much but don't want to date you?
Why is it rejected?
Why...when expressing love, there is such a complicated look without any joy in it.
Although Wan Qiu had never really been in love, he had seen people in love.
The gazes they gave each other were gentle, affectionate, and exclusive.
No matter how Wan Qiu thought, the way Chu Yigui looked at him was different from that of others.
If the gaze of a person in love is a warm, fiery red rose, then Chu Yigui might be able to smell the clear and pleasant fragrance of flowers everywhere, but cannot find the shadow of flowers anywhere.
Wan Qiu didn't ask any more questions.
When he looked directly at Chu Yigui, a strange intuition lingering in his chest told him not to ask any more questions.
As for the fact that Chu Yigui had romantic feelings for him, Wan Qiu suddenly felt that it was better to know it than not to know it.
——
When Wan Qiu was taking a dance class, Zhou Peiyu suddenly asked Wan Qiu about Chu Yigui.
"Their class had a reunion, why didn't Yigui want to go? All his classmates came to me to ask why Chu Yigui disappeared after graduation and didn't reply to anyone's messages."
Wan Qiu had no idea about these things.
"Yigui is now interning at his father's company and is basically working during the day."
"Oh my god..." Zhou Peiyu was so shocked that he couldn't be more shocked. "Is he allergic to rest?"
Wan Qiu also felt that Chu Yigui didn't seem to want to rest at all.
"Is the class reunion over?" Wan Qiu asked.
"Not yet. They haven't done it yet. It is said that they have been delaying it because they can't contact Chu Yigui." Zhou Peiyu said.
Wan Qiu was surprised: "Are you not going to do it because of Yigui?"
"Chu Yigui is very popular, and he has always been leading his classmates in study. He also did a great job predicting the questions in the college entrance examination this time. He got all the basic questions right, except for some special ones."
Zhou Peiyu himself also obtained Chu Yigui's predicted topic information, and he was really grateful at this moment.
"To be honest, I can get into my dream university without adding extra art exam points this time. I really have to thank Chu Yigui. My mom always asks me to invite you guys to dinner."
Wan Qiu responded hesitantly. Even though he was amazed at Chu Yigui's ability every day, it seemed that Chu Yigui's excellence was even beyond his imagination.
"The classmates in his class couldn't find Chu Yigui, so they came to ask me. I originally called Chu Yigui directly, but he didn't answer my call."
Wan Qiu nodded.
But now Chu Yigui has just started working and is really busy.
Now at the dinner table, Chu Yigui would talk about work with his father and elder brother.
Wan Qiu hesitated a little, but still asked, "Why do we need a class reunion?"
"This is just like a farewell dinner. We were together day and night for three years in high school, so there must be some relationship. You can also call it a graduation banquet. Everyone got into college, so the general idea is to celebrate."
"Then I should go after all..." Wan Qiu thought, Chu Yigui got along well with everyone, so he should go.
"Right, I said we should go. Each person pays 300 yuan, and we can have dinner and go out to a nightclub to have fun. Let Chu Yigui indulge himself too!" Zhou Peiyu was obviously already having a great time.
"Yeah." Wan Qiu nodded.
"And I can guarantee that there will be a confession segment. After graduating from high school, this is the last chance to confess. With Chu Yigui's popularity, he will definitely receive many confessions."
Zhou Peiyu couldn't help but feel full of anticipation here.
"It's a pity that Chu Yigui and I are not in the same class, otherwise I really want to witness with my own eyes the outstanding scene of Chu Yigui being confessed to by many people in a line!"
Wan Qiu looked at Zhou Peiyu.
Zhou Peiyu felt a little embarrassed when Wan Qiu saw him. He scratched his hair in confusion: "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that?"
"Will Yigui receive a lot of confessions?" Wan Qiu asked.
"Sure, I promise."
"Will Yigui fall in love?"
Zhou Peiyu was stunned, and thought for a while while stroking his chin: "It doesn't seem easy. It seems that his life is all about studying except for you."
"Then what can we do to make Yigui fall in love?" Wan Qiu asked.
"Ah?" Zhou Peiyu hesitated. "This depends on one's personal opinion. It doesn't mean that if you force someone to fall in love, you will really fall in love."
"No, I don't want to force Yigui to fall in love. If it's Yigui, why doesn't he want to fall in love?"
Wan Qiu didn't know what kind of mentality he had in asking such a question.
He couldn't forget everything that happened on the day Chu Yigui refused to be in love.
"I don't know. It's a personal choice, right?" Zhou Peiyu, who knows Wan Qiu's family well, thought for a moment and said, "Maybe it's because he hasn't established a career yet, so he chooses not to get married?"
Wan Qiu was stunned: "What does this mean?"
"Isn't he an orphan? He is actually staying at your house right now, right?"
Wan Qiu nodded.
Zhou Peiyu said: "If you like someone, you will definitely want to give her better. Now you have nothing, so why not consider it?"
"Will it be like this?" Wan Qiu felt that maybe it was not impossible.
"Or maybe he thinks others are not worthy of him?" Zhou Peiyu proposed another possibility.
"Isn't this unlikely?" Wan Qiu always felt that this was not an idea that Chu Yigui would have.
"Indeed, Chu Yigui doesn't seem like a very arrogant person." Zhou Peiyu proposed another possibility, "Does he have someone he likes?"
"Yigui likes me." Wan Qiu said.
Zhou Peiyu nodded as if it was normal: "But it's different, he won't fall in love with you, right?"
Wan Qiu's heart tightened at this moment: "Why doesn't Yigui want to date me?"
Zhou Peiyu: “…”
Wan Qiu: “?”
Zhou Peiyu: "Why do you ask this question? Do you want to date Chu Yigui? Do you like Chu Yigui?"
Wan Qiu said confidently: "I like Yigui very much."
"So do you want to date him?" Zhou Peiyu asked.
Wan Qiu hesitated, like a deflated balloon: "I don't know what love is."
"Like and like are different." Zhou Peiyu patted Wan Qiu's shoulder, but his expression gradually became serious as he thought about it.
She was used to seeing Wan Qiu and Chu Yigui saying they liked each other.
But if you think about the interaction between Wan Qiu and Chu Yigui carefully, it's more like romance than love.
Zhou Peiyu watched Wan Qiu fall into a state of loss due to confusion.
A strange feeling came over me.
"You..." Zhou Peiyu suddenly said with some strange thoughts in his mind, "Why don't you also go to Yigui's class reunion?"
"Why?" Wan Qiu asked. He was not Chu Yigui's classmate.
Zhou Peiyu just had a sudden idea.
For some reason, she felt that Chu Yigui and Wan Qiu were in love.
After hearing about Chu Yigui's love affair, Wan Qiu felt a little lost again.
Could it be what she thought?
Zhou Peiyu wanted to verify it.
"Anyway, you should first ask Chu Yigui whether he is willing to go!" Zhou Peiyu urged.
"Okay." Wan Qiu nodded.
"Ask quickly." Zhou Peiyu was even a little anxious when he took out Wan Qiu's mobile phone from his coat that was placed aside and handed it over.
Wan Qiu obediently dialed the phone and was picked up on the second ring.
"Wan Qiu?" Chu Yigui's voice came from the phone, and Zhou Peiyu, who was eavesdropping on the side, was stunned.
She always felt that Chu Yigui's voice on the phone sounded gentler than usual. Was it her illusion?
"Yigui, do you want to attend the class reunion?" Wan Qiu asked.
Chu Yigui asked: "Did they come to find you?"
"Zhou Peiyu told me that everyone is waiting for you to attend the class reunion."
Chu Yigui responded: "I am currently doing internship and don't have much time to attend parties."
"Oh, I see." Wan Qiu looked at Zhou Peiyu.
Zhou Peiyu snatched Wan Qiu's phone directly: "Chu Yigui, why did you disappear after graduation? Do you have no friendship with your classmates? Was the three years of getting along fake? Don't you want to say goodbye to everyone? We will go our separate ways in the future?"
Chu Yigui listened to Zhou Peiyu's words quietly before saying, "I'm busy."
The sound was clear and cold, like ice falling into a mountain spring, adding to the coolness.
It was completely different from the voice I had just used to speak to Wan Qiu.
Zhou Peiyu couldn't help but ask: "Even if you are busy, you should at least decline the invitation from others. Why don't you reply to their calls?"
Chu Yigui just replied: "Nothing."
"Wan Qiu said he wanted to go to the class reunion with you." Zhou Peiyu suddenly said expressionlessly.
Chu Yigui was not so cold this time: "Did you instigate Wan Qiu?"
Zhou Peiyu took a deep breath.
Could this person be a mind reader? Could he even know something like this?
Suddenly, Zhou Peiyu heard a silent sigh from the other end of the phone.
"Give the phone to Wan Qiu."
Zhou Peiyu reflexively handed the phone to Wan Qiu, even holding it with both hands.
Wan Qiu held the phone and heard Chu Yigui's voice: "Do you want to go?"
Wan Qiu didn't think or not think about it.
He just said: "I just think it's nice to be able to say goodbye properly."
Chu Yigui was silent for a moment.
Wan Qiu held the phone in his arms, unable to see Chu Yigui's face and judge his mood.
"Okay." Chu Yigui responded to Wan Qiu, "I will contact them."
"Are you tired?" Wan Qiu asked inexplicably.
"No." Chu Yigui's voice, probably through the phone, was a little tender, "Aren't you going with me? Being with you means I'm resting."
Wan Qiu was still a little dazed until he hung up the phone.
"Do you agree?" Zhou Peiyu asked with his head tilted.
Wan Qiu nodded.
"As expected of you, I feel like you are the only one who can make Chu Yigui obey. If Chu Yigui wants to date someone in the future, the other person will be jealous of you."
As Zhou Peiyu spoke, he observed Wan Qiu's expression for some unknown reason.
Wan Qiu said, "I didn't ask Yigui to be obedient, I was the one who always listened to Yigui."
"Chu Yigui has always listened to you. Don't you have this awareness yourself?" Zhou Peiyu asked.
Wan Qiu's eyes widened.
"Although it seems that you have been listening to Chu Yigui all the time, it is obvious that Chu Yigui does whatever you want, right? He dotes on you a lot."
Zhou Peiyu’s words made Wan Qiu think for a long time.
It seems to be so, but it also seems not to be.
Wan Qiu couldn't refute it, but he didn't know why it was like this.
——
The day of Chu Yigui's class reunion was scheduled for the evening, and Chu Yigui would go directly to the restaurant after get off work.
Zhou Peiyu also teased Chu Yigui for working during the day and socializing at night at such a young age.
Wan Qiu was getting ready at home with the help of Butler Bai, and the place Wan Qiu was going to was Chu Jianshu's company.
This was the first time Wan Qiu actually saw Chu Jianshu and Yang Ze working, and now it is also the place where Chu Yigui works.
Wan Qiu never knew what the real workplace was like.
Wan Qiu was suddenly shocked until the driver said that all the buildings here belonged to companies under Chu Jianshu's group.
"Is this all?" Wan Qiu leaned on the car window.
"Didn't we just enter a big gate? From that gate until now, all the land is occupied by the company." The driver said to Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu vaguely realized that his father might be extremely powerful.
Wan Qiu sat in the back seat and looked out the window: "Such a big place, can't we just live there?"
"Of course." The driver told Wan Qiu, "There are many staff dormitories here."
Wan Qiu asked: "If I rest here directly, I don't have to go home every day, wouldn't it be more convenient for me to go to work?"
"That's right, but only by going home can I see the young masters better."
Although they are several young masters, they actually refer to Wan Qiu.
The driver didn't say it explicitly, but Wan Qiu understood.
"You can just go in. Secretary Song should be waiting at the front desk." The driver parked the car downstairs of a building.
Wan Qiu got out of the car and the automatic door opened immediately.
The huge and bright hall, and the many glamorous people in it, were all reflected in Wanqiu's vision.
"Wan Qiu." Song Wenqiu suddenly called Wan Qiu from the side, and Wan Qiu came back to his senses. "Are you stunned? Is this your first time here? How is it? Do you suddenly feel that our father Wan Qiu is very powerful?"
"Yeah." Wan Qiu couldn't hide his amazement, "It's really amazing."
"It's still more than an hour before the end of the workday. I'll show you my dad and my second brother at work."
Wan Qiu followed behind Song Wenqiu, and was very curious about everything. The scenery around him was overwhelming.
The sky always gets dark slowly in the summer, but the huge floors seem to be illuminated by sunlight everywhere, and the brightness is shocking.
Song Wenqiu walked very slowly, and Wan Qiu followed him, also looking at the other people around him.
Everyone shines beautifully because of their seriousness and intelligence.
For a moment, Wan Qiu could no longer tell whether the entire space was brighter because everyone was so beautiful, or vice versa.
Almost everyone who passes by will greet Song Wenqi, and Song Wenqi will also respond.
These people's eyes will be fixed on Wan Qiu, frozen for a few seconds, and then they will smile at Wan Qiu.
Wan Qiu wanted to respond, but he passed by before he could.
"It's okay, you don't have to say hello. We are all colleagues and very busy. It would be tiring to greet everyone one by one." Song Wenqiu couldn't help laughing when he saw Wan Qiu's awkward look.
Wan Qiu nodded, not quite understanding.
Wan Qiu thought of the places where he had seen the most people in the past: the morning market near Ning Qiaozhen's rental house, and the restaurant in the shopping mall that was on holiday with a long queue.
And now it was the first time that Wan Qiu saw so many people working together in one building.
"Dad Wanqiu is working very hard to lead everyone to work, so it's very hard."
Song Wenqiu told Wan Qiu.
"So we need a lot of people to help and assist us. This is what Chu Yigui is doing now."
Wan Qiu nodded.
His family and Chu Yigui must be doing something remarkable.
So Yigui’s choice is actually a very remarkable and difficult one.
The place where Song Wenqiu took Wan Qiu was a conference room.
The meeting should not be disturbed at this time, but today is Wan Qiu's first time here.
Song Wenqiu wanted Wan Qiu to see how Chu Jianshu was able to plan and strategize.
Even an old man over fifty would definitely want to look cool in front of his young son, Song Wenqi thought with good intentions.
So Song Wenqiu was even bold enough to take Wan Qiu and push open the door of the conference room and walk in.
The people in the conference room looked back at them.
The first person Wan Qiu looked at was Chu Yigui, who was using a computer at a table next to the conference room.
Chu Yigui met Wan Qiu's gaze.
Wan Qiu didn't dare to speak.
In the entire conference room, only the people standing there were talking; everyone else was too quiet.
Song Wenqiu naturally took Wan Qiu to sit on a chair nearby. Of course, he did not miss the gazes of the people at the table who were secretly looking at Wan Qiu.
Each of these senior executives is as smart as a human, how could they not tell who Wan Qiu is?
When Song Wenqi saw Chu Jianshu signaling for the meeting to continue, he didn't seem to react much to their arrival.
But Song Wenqi clearly noticed that although Chu Jianshu asked more trivial details today, his attitude towards the people around him was actually much gentler.
It’s a pity that today is just a simple reporting meeting, otherwise we could see Chu Jianshu’s more sharp insights.
Song Wenqiu smiled secretly and looked at Wan Qiu.
Sure enough, Wan Qiu was staring at Chu Jianshu.
He must be fascinated. How could Song Wenqi not know that Chu Jianshu was actually a little nervous in front of Wan Qiu? Sometimes he felt that they were a strange pair of father and son.
Wan Qiu felt that Chu Jianshu was probably the center of everyone's attention.
Wan Qiu remembered the jewelry exhibition that Yang Xiaoyu once took him to. The brightest jewelry that was placed in the middle was shining brightly and attracted everyone's attention.
It must be the same as Chu Jianshu now.
Wan Qiu looked at Chu Yigui for some unknown reason.
Chu Yigui is still not the center of attention here, but the way he looks like he is working seriously, the calm expression when he looks up, and his handsome looks that are no less handsome than his elder brother's, inexplicably fit in with this formal office.
Chu Yigui is trying to fully integrate into this place and is working hard for it.
After the meeting, Wan Qiu told Chu Jianshu that he thought his father was very handsome during the meeting.
Chu Jianshu still had that expressionless face, but Wan Qiu could feel that Chu Jianshu should be happy.
Although Song Wenqiu was laughing strangely, Wan Qiu felt that he should say this.
Anyone who is praised will be happy, and so is dad.
Knowing Wan Qiu and Chu Yigui's arrangements, Chu Jianshu did not let Yang Ze send them off, but instead drove them to the class reunion.
Chu Jianshu said that Chu Yigui is currently taking a driver's license test. Once he gets his license, he will give Chu Yigui a car to make it easier for him to move around and to pick up Wan Qiu.
Chu Jianshu said that Chu Yigui adapted to the company very quickly and was able to do the tasks assigned to him very well.
Chu Jianshu said that he could let Wan Qiu live the comfortable life he wanted.
Wan Qiu thought of Chu Yigui again.
Is what Chu Yigui is doing now also to have a comfortable life?
In the future, Chu Yigui will continue to become more outstanding and stand out again among a large group of outstanding people.
Among the busy people passing by, Wan Qiu suddenly felt a little confused about what he could achieve in the future.
"Go play." Chu Jianshu stood outside the car and reached out to ruffle Wanqiu's hair. "Have fun."
When they arrived at the class reunion, almost everyone was already there.
It seems that only Chu Yi has returned for internship, and most people are now happily enjoying the relaxing holiday life after the college entrance examination.
Although Wan Qiu is not a member of the class, he is familiar to Chu Yigui because he always goes to find him.
Everyone happily took photos with Chu Yigui, but Chu Yigui never left Wan Qiu's side.
He would pick up some food for Wan Qiu after each dish was served.
Wan Qiu hardly ever extended his chopsticks.
Others teased Chu Yigui that he treated Wan Qiu like a child.
Chu Yigui said that it was Wan Qiu who was leading him.
Others said that it was unfair of Chu Yigui to not be able to contact him after graduation, and they all wanted to thank Chu Yigui for his help over the past three years.
But Chu Yigui said that he was just busy, and helping others was also helping himself.
Wan Qiu was watching from the side the whole time.
Unlike the people in Chu Jianshu's company who are dressed beautifully and fashionably, the high school students who have just graduated are more energetic.
It's like the difference between carefully cultivated tulips and dianthus blooming on the roadside.
Somewhat out of place.
Wan Qiu seemed to see a thin line that was dividing Chu Yigui and other students.
And Wan Qiu is the only one included in the circle.
Because he was not familiar with the people around him, Wan Qiu would always lower his head and send messages to Zhou Peiyu.
Zhou Peiyu seemed to be particularly concerned about the situation here, and was so enthusiastic that even Wan Qiu was a little confused.
Zhou Peiyu: Is it true that no female classmate has confessed to Chu Yigui until now?
Wan Qiu: No.
Zhou Peiyu: Impossible, absolutely impossible!
Wan Qiu didn't understand what Zhou Peiyu was waiting for.
If someone confesses to Chu Yigui, will something strange happen?
