Chapter 125 Missing Him, But Not Dare to Get Close to Him
Zhuo Chengze and Shen Zhichu looked at Gu Yanchi drinking glass after glass of wine, and they shook their heads at each other.
They had never seen such dejection and laxity before.
For Gu Zengchi, who was used to speaking harshly, his silence at this moment seemed particularly awkward.
"If you are really worried, why not capture the person back?" Shen Zhichu played with the wine glass in his hand.
Zhuo Chengze nodded in approval: "That's right, this is not a difficult task for you."
Gu Nishichi paused as he was about to grab the wine glass. He raised the corner of his mouth in a bitter tone. He didn't even have the courage to meet him now, so how could he possibly capture him?
Besides, what's the point of catching him? To watch him hate himself?
Besides, he didn't dare to touch him at all now. He was afraid that if he moved, he would run away and he would never see him again.
At least he is still in Beichuan now, and he can still see him occasionally, that's enough.
Zhuo Chengze couldn't stand this depressing atmosphere. He covered his face and wailed in pain: "Why is my life so miserable? Why do I have to be friends with two bastards like you!"
Zhuo Chengze pointed at Shen Zhichu and said, "Tell me, you and Chu Xu clearly didn't have that many misunderstandings, and clearly only had each other in your hearts, so how did it come to this?"
"Haven't you heard that his father has spread the news that he is going to arrange a marriage for him? I heard that the marriage is with a real estate developer with a strong background."
"I don't understand Chu Xu's father either. He spends all day thinking about how to get close to others. He wants to sell his children when he has no ability of his own."
"After his daughter was ruined by him, she is now thinking about her own son."
Shen Zhichu frowned. This time, the person Chu Xu's father was trying to get close to was indeed more difficult to deal with. But no matter how difficult it was, he would not back down.
He is destined to spend the rest of his life with Chu Xu.
Gu Yinchi, who had been silent all the time, frowned slightly, took out his cell phone and sent a message to Wen Qing, asking him to handle the matter.
After drinking the wine in his glass in one gulp, Gu Yanchi picked up his coat and walked out.
Zhuo Chengze wanted to call him back, but was stopped by Shen Zhichu: "Let him go."
Zhuo Chengze shook his head helplessly: "Do you two just like this feeling of being abused?"
Shen Zhichu lowered his eyes and sighed helplessly.
Gu Niechi asked the driver to take him to the vicinity of Lindu's rental house. He hid in the darkness, leaning against a big tree and smoking.
Gu Nichi slightly raised his chin and blew the smoke from his mouth into the air. Looking closely, there seemed to be a drop of moist crystal hanging in the corner of his eye.
Maybe it was because of the alcohol, but at this moment his desire to see Lin Du reached its peak and he couldn't suppress it at all.
Lin Du was like a cigarette butt on his fingertips, the lost flame in his heart. He knew it would burn him, but he still couldn't help but get closer.
He didn't know if he could meet Lin Du, but he still wanted to try his luck.
After a day of fruitless job hunting, Lin Du was exhausted. He walked with a heavy heart and leaned against a wall weakly to slow down for a while.
Gu Jinchi fixed his eyes precisely on Lin Du. His body almost couldn't control the urge to rush over and hug him, but his reason reminded him to stay calm and not scare him.
Slowly retreating into the darkness, his face was full of endurance, and beneath his wrinkled brows, his deep eyes revealed unspeakable pain.
At this moment, he was like a voyeur, helpless and in pain.
Lin Du sighed and walked into the shabby alley.
Gu Nichi walked to the place where Lin Du had just leaned on. His fingertips brushed lightly over it. He leaned his forehead against the wall, trying to feel the remaining breath of Lin Du.
I don’t know how long I stood there before Gu Xichi finally felt reluctant to leave.
When he returned home, it was deserted. The person whose heart and eyes were filled with only him was no longer waiting for him at the door.
He walked to Lin Du's small garden and sat down. He patted Gu Xingxing's little house and said, "I saw your father Lin Du today. He... has lost weight again and is not in a good condition."
The puppy was running over from a distance, and perhaps it ran too fast and accidentally fell on its face and slipped for a distance, then shook its head and continued to sprint.
Gu Nichi couldn't help but raise his lips. He stretched out his hand and waited for the puppy to approach. He held it in his arms and stroked its head: "How can you be so stupid?"
The little dog didn't understand his sarcasm at all. It only knew that the person who could accompany it had returned, and it just wanted to snuggle into Gu Jinchi's arms.
Gu Xinchi's nose felt sore, and he raised the corners of his mouth bitterly: "He used to be like you, silly, always loving to get into my arms, but later... he stopped, he left..."
The puppy found a comfortable position and nestled in Gu Nishi's arms with some humming sounds, licking his fingers with its tongue.
"You say he is stingy or not, he didn't even know to give you a name." Gu Yanchi thought for a moment and rubbed the puppy's round belly, "Let's call him Qiuqiu."
"Here." Gu Nichi pointed to the grave next to him and said, "This is my son Gu Xingxing. Remember to come and play with him often when you have nothing to do."
When he returned to the room, Lin Du's figure was everywhere, but Gu Jingchi could no longer sense his presence.
He placed Lin Du's pajamas on the bed and lay on his side, imagining what he would look like beside him.
It is really difficult to find a job, especially for someone like Lin Du who has no education. It is extremely difficult.
Passing by Chen Wei's dessert shop, I saw that it was packed with people and he was busy all by himself.
Lin Du pushed the door open and walked in. When Chen Wei saw Lin Du, he curled his lips and waved at him.
Lin Du walked over and asked: "Can I help you with anything?"
"Great! I'm so busy. Can you help me get desserts for the guests while I pay the bill?"
Lin Du nodded, still a little nervous: "Okay."
After being busy for a while, the store finally became quiet.
Chen Wei brought a glass of water to Lin Du and said, "Thank you so much, otherwise I really can't handle it alone."
Lin Du grinned: "I just happen to be free, I'm very happy to be able to help you."
Chen Weimin caught the meaning of this sentence. It seemed that Lin was having a hard time: "You are not working in the original company anymore?"
Lin Du nodded and held the cup tightly in his hand.
Chen Wei didn't ask too many questions. He pursed his lips and said, "As you can see, I'm actually quite busy here. If possible, I'd like to ask you to come over and help. I'll pay you. What do you think?"
Lin Du was delighted, but also a little worried: "But I don't know how to make desserts."
"It doesn't matter. You just need to collect the money later."
Lin Du pursed his lips. He thought that Chen Wei must have discovered his difficulties, so he took the initiative to take him in.
"Lin Du, aren't we friends? You don't want to help me, do you? It's really tiring for me to run this store by myself, and I don't feel comfortable asking others to do it."
Lin Du thought for a moment and looked at Chen Wei gratefully: "Okay, I will definitely try my best."
Chen Wei curled his lips and smiled: "It's a pleasure to work with you."
Gu Lianchi sat in the car, he looked at Lin Du and Chen Wei standing so close to each other, with a faint smile on his face. These were all extravagant hopes that he once had but would never have again.
