This is my home
The weather is getting hotter and hotter, and I am always sweating. Shen Xingyan held Gu Qiuqiu's hand, and Gu Qiuqiu stuck out her long tongue and panted heavily.
There were many people walking on the road, some alone, some walking side by side with others, and some walking their dogs like Shen Xingyan.
Ever since Gu Qiuqiu had Yaya, he wouldn’t even look at other dogs. Even if the other dogs showed good intentions, he would still stare straight ahead.
Because Gu Qiuqiu has a strong physique, smooth hair, and eyes that occasionally reveal wisdom, and he often goes on dates with Yaya, he has changed his previous listless image and now holds his head high. He gets a lot of attention when he walks on the street.
In order to avoid being approached by others, Shen Xingyan put on a very cold look. Even if someone was shameless enough to approach her, she would just nod lightly, and the other person would tactfully walk away.
After a while, everyone knew that a cool girl often took a spirited dog out for a walk, and when people saw them, they just stared at them.
When Gu Fang took Gu Qiuqiu for a walk, everyone came over.
"Your girlfriend didn't come? She's so cool, she didn't say a word even when I told her."
"All pretty girls are like this. It's not unusual to see this."
"She doesn't talk to you either? Isn't she boring?"
"You have a good temper. Since ancient times, couples have had good tempers. One is good and the other is bad. One likes to talk and the other is silent."
“Blah blah…”
As Gu Fang listened to their increasingly outrageous remarks, he finally understood why Shen Xingyan had to pretend to be so aloof. He couldn't handle it either.
Gu Fang explained to them, "We are colleagues and neighbors. When I am busy, I ask her to help walk the dog. She is a nice person with a good temper."
Everyone was surprised, how could such a perfect match not be a couple? So everyone started to match them up again.
"Young man, you are not young anymore. It's time to think about your lifelong affairs. I think that girl is pretty good. She even helps you walk the dog. Maybe she is interested in you."
"Yeah, yeah, if it's boring, who would be free to help you walk the dog?"
"If she's interested, you should take the initiative. You can't wait for her to speak."
"You have good conditions. If you pursue her, you will definitely catch up with her. Don't be afraid of being rejected. As the saying goes, a strong woman is afraid of a clinging man."
"By the way, what do you do? How much do you earn? Do you own a house?"
Gu Fang didn't know whether to laugh or cry. The inquiry was even more detailed than that of a blind date.
"You all look good and tall, are you models?"
"It's possible. Just look at that girl's temperament and cool demeanor. She really looks like a model."
Gu Fang held his forehead and looked down at Gu Qiuqiu, who was lying on the ground, sticking out his tongue and completely ignoring him.
Gu Fang decided to use his trump card, "She is not a model, she is a forensic doctor, very powerful. If you need anything in the future, you can find her. She is also very professional in injury assessment."
Everyone: “?!”
Who wants to find a forensic doctor?
After a brief moment of surprise, everyone dispersed. It turns out that the cold little girl is a forensic doctor. No wonder she always has a stern face. How can she smile when she sees dead people all day long?
Gu Fang went from being the center of attention to being all alone in an instant. He shook his head in amusement, thinking to himself, these people. What's wrong with being a forensic doctor? You don't have to deal with complicated interpersonal relationships, and dealing with the dead is much better than the living. It's just a pity for Xiao Shen, as he revealed her identity. On second thought, she definitely wouldn't mind, otherwise she wouldn't have become a forensic pathologist.
Gu Fang held Gu Qiuqiu's hand, whistled, and walked along the main road. After more than an hour, they returned home. He glanced across and saw the door was closed. He wondered what she was doing.
Shen Kuo's words rang in his ears - you are moved, he laughed, how could it be possible, he just thought Shen Xingyan had good abilities and just admired her.
There were footsteps in the corridor suddenly. Gu Fang turned around out of professional habit. He first saw the top of a head, then the entire face. Gu Fang frowned, "Ling Qi is here again?"
The person who came was Mingxuan. She was wearing a black T-shirt and blue tight jeans, which made her legs look long and thin. She put on makeup and her hair was a little messy, which added a bit of charm to her.
Mingxuan shook her head. "I came here alone. I drove for several hours."
"What's up?"
"I can't come to see you if there's nothing wrong." Mingxuan felt bitter. It takes more than four hours to drive from Jingshi to Nanfu. After get off work, she drove here without even having dinner. He was surprised to see her attitude.
"Why are you doing this? I've already told you that I won't go back to Beijing. You know my temper very well. Once I make a decision, it's hard to change it. Don't waste your time on me. I want to always treat you as my sister." He had refused too many times, to too many people, so the words of rejection came out of his mouth easily.
Mingxuan's chest ached unbearably, and her voice was filled with tears. "I like you, and that's my own business. Whether you like me or not has nothing to do with me."
Gu Fang sighed, "Don't always read romance novels. Those are just made up by the authors. There is no such thing as beautiful love in reality, let alone in our line of work. Go find someone who's right for you. I can't give you what you want."
"How do you know what I want?"
Gu Fang remained silent, and Ming Xuan continued, "I have liked you for so long, I don't want to give up."
"When it's time to let go, don't cling to it."
Mingxuan tried hard to hold back her tears, but they still flowed out. She was a strong-willed person and would not have cried if she hadn't felt really sad.
Gu Fang sighed again, "Have you eaten? Do you have a place to stay tonight?"
Mingxuan looked at him with tears in her eyes, and she felt a little happy, "You still care about me."
"I said I treat you as my sister, how can I let my sister suffer."
Mingxuan lowered her head, and all the joy she had just felt turned into bitterness. "I can't eat it."
Gu Fang glanced at her, walked across and knocked on Shen Xingyan's door. After a while, the door opened and a head popped out. Shen Xingyan had a towel wrapped around his head and was wearing pajamas with a shirt over them. She looked Gu Fang up and down, with a look of vigilance on her face, "What are you doing?"
Before Gu Fang could say anything, Gu Qiuqiu suddenly broke free from the rope and jumped into the house.
Shen Xingyan: ...
Gu Qiuqiu's movements are becoming more and more skillful.
Gu Fang took a half step back and motioned her to look behind him. "Mingxuan is here and has no place to stay. Can I stay at your house for one night?"
Mingxuan looked at Gu Fang reluctantly, then at Shen Xingyan.
Shen Xingyan looked at Gu Fang first, then at Mingxuan, and their eyes met. "My family has a place to live, but..." whether she is willing or not.
"As long as I have a place to live, it's fine." Gu Fang stretched out his long legs, pushed open the door of her house, and walked in as if he was familiar with the place.
Shen Xingyan: ...
How did this person learn from Gu Qiuqiu?
She shouted from behind: "Take off your shoes!"
As she shouted, Gu Fang kicked off his shoes and sat on the sofa. Gu Qiuqiu jumped up and lay beside him.
Shen Xingyan was speechless, this was her home! She looked at Mingxuan and said, "Come in." She took out a pair of shoes from the shoe cabinet and handed them to her.
Mingxuan went in reluctantly and changed into slippers.
This was her second time here. The first time it was Song Xijun who was at her house, and this time it was Gu Fang. Her house seemed particularly lively.
Gu Fang leaned against the sofa, crossed his legs, "Is there anything to eat? I'm hungry."
Shen Xingyan rolled his eyes at him, took out some biscuits and chocolates from the snack cabinet, and placed them on the coffee table. "That's all."
Gu Fang tore open the biscuit, took out a piece and started eating, "Qiuqiu is hungry too."
Shen Xingyan first poured Mingxuan a glass of water and asked, "What would you like to eat?" She then poured some dog food into Gu Qiuqiu's food bowl. She was too lazy to move Gu Qiuqiu's food bowl around, so she forced Gu Fang to buy a new dog bowl and dog food and put them on her side.
Mingxuan shook her head and said, "I'm not hungry." Then her stomach growled uncontrollably. Mingxuan looked at her stomach angrily, feeling so embarrassed.
Shen Xingyan paused, and Gu Fang said, "She came here right after get off work and hasn't had dinner yet."
Shen Xingyan tilted her head and looked at him, "Since you knew she didn't finish her meal, why didn't you make it for her?"
"I have nothing at home, and the food in the refrigerator is all moldy. I can only come to you for food."
"I have instant noodles and eggs here, you can cook for her." She didn't want to do it.
Gu Fang finished eating the biscuits and patted the biscuit crumbs off his hands, "Okay, do you want to eat?"
"I'm not hungry."
Gu Fang went to the kitchen, turned on the gas as if he knew the way, and put water in the pot to boil. Shen Xingyan took out instant noodles and eggs. "Two packs of noodles and two eggs, are they enough?"
"There are three eggs, and I want to eat two."
Shen Xingyan took out another egg and placed it on the stove. "The bowl is in the cupboard." He turned around and walked out, closing the kitchen door.
Mingxuan sat on the sofa, looking at the two of them, and suddenly felt that she was redundant. When she met Shen Xingyan's eyes, she gave a bitter smile.
Shen Xingyan naturally understood the friendship involved when a woman came to see a man in the middle of the night. She didn't want to ask, nor did she want to get involved. "You can sleep in the guest room. I'll get you a new set of bedding. The room faces the sun, so it won't be damp."
"Thank you, sorry for the trouble."
"Don't be so polite, we are classmates."
"I have to thank you very much. You taught me without reservation last time, which enabled me to find out about Qiao Laoliu."
"I heard from Gu Fang that the case is quite complicated and it seems to involve a lot of people. You should be careful."
Ming Xuan nodded, "I'm fine, it's mainly Ling Qi, I don't know if he can handle the pressure."
Shen Xingyan didn't say anything. She knew about the case and the time when it was exposed. Because she had discovered it several years in advance, she didn't know whether the result would change. The original result was not optimistic.
She went to the guest room to clean up, and Gu Fang came out with some noodles, "Eat something, I made you a fried egg."
Mingxuan looked at the round fried egg on the noodles, took the chopsticks he handed over, picked up the fried egg and took a bite. The egg yolk was tender and had a unique sweetness.
Gu Fang brought out his own, with two poached eggs on top.
Mingxuan said: "You still like to eat fried eggs."
Gu Fang smiled and lowered his head to eat. When Shen Xingyan came out, she had just finished eating a fried egg. He asked her, "Do you want to eat?"
"Thank you, I'm losing weight."
Gu Fang clicked his tongue twice, "You're so thin that only bones are left. If you lose more weight, you won't be able to move your body."
"And An Xin."
"His study period is almost over. I heard from Old Bao that he is doing well."
"Well, he works very hard, better than He Li." Speaking of He Li, Shen Xingyan felt it was a pity for him. I heard that he was transferred to manage archives and doesn't have to work overtime, but I can see the end of it at a glance, so what's the point? Life was not as good as he expected, and his wife was urging him to quit his job and start his own business.
Seeing her stunned, Gu Fang said, "The leader of the first team will report tomorrow."
"Ah? It's coming so soon. Didn't they say it would take a few days? Did anyone know?"
Gu Fang shook his head. "Mr. Zhang is very tight-lipped. He won't say anything no matter how much we ask."
Shen Xingyan smiled and said, "We'll know when people come tomorrow." She took off the towel from her head, wiped it a few times, and her hair was messy on her head.
Gu Fang frowned and looked at the top of her head, "No hair dryer?"
"It's broken and I haven't bought another one yet." Shen Xingyan sighed. It was so inconvenient. If it were in the future, she could place an order on her mobile phone and have it delivered quickly, but here she has to go to the mall to buy it, and she is too lazy to go.
Gu Fang threw the key to her and said, "Go to my house and get it. Your hair is thick and long. When will it dry? Sleeping with wet hair will easily give you a headache."
Shen Xingyan picked up the key and was about to go out, but Gu Fang snatched the key back and said, "Forget it, I'll go. You'll easily catch a cold if you go out like this."
Shen Xingyan stared at his back in a daze. When did he become so caring?
Mingxuan also looked at his back, feeling a pain in her heart. He had never cared about her so much before. She went to look at Shen Xingyan, who was already sitting on the sofa, stroking Qiuqiu's head with a faint smile on his lips.
After being classmates with her for five years, she discovered for the first time that she was actually very beautiful.
