Chapter 1925: Were you the one who called Nian Nian too?
What makes Gu Tianqi even more worried is that she is currently sharing an apartment with a man, and she really wants to find a boyfriend. This makes it too easy for someone to take advantage of her situation, and she will suffer a great loss.
So he insisted on going to her house to see what was going on with the boy.
Anyway, if it's someone with bad intentions, he can tell.
Thinking of this, Gu Tianqi followed Chi Nian to the residential complex where she lived...
The community is neither high nor low in quality, but the environment is good. There are only six buildings and it is relatively quiet.
This was the first time that Gu Tianqi came to Chi Nian's house. Chi Nian used to live in his apartment, but before he sold his apartment, Chi Nian bought this house, so he had moved here for some time.
After entering the apartment building and getting into the elevator, Chi Nian swiped his card and went upstairs to the 19th floor.
Gu Tianqi kept his arm on her shoulders until they reached her door.
He wanted to hold Chi Nian like this when he entered the room, so that the boy could see that this girl was protected by someone and that he shouldn't bully her just because she was a little girl with no relatives or friends.
But Chi Nian didn't give him a chance.
When Chi Nian took the key to open the door, he asked him to stand against the wall.
Gu Tianqi had no choice but to let go awkwardly.
After opening the door, she went in by herself. Gu Tianqi was about to put his arm around her shoulder, but Chi Nian bent down and he found nothing. Embarrassed, he withdrew his arm and scratched his hair.
Chi Nian bent down to find slippers for him.
She took out men's slippers and placed them in front of him: "Second brother, can you change them yourself?"
Gu Tianqi nodded. He felt embarrassed to trouble others with something like changing shoes.
He took off his shoes and changed into slippers, then he saw the pair of men's casual shoes at the door and felt uncomfortable.
But he still maintained a calm appearance.
The scene that followed destroyed his composure, and he clenched his fists.
He saw Chi Nian's roommate coming out of the bathroom wrapped in a bath towel.
At this time, Gu Tianqi was standing in the entrance corridor, and the boy was standing at the bathroom door. They both saw each other at the same time.
Gu Tianqi looked at the boy. He was shirtless, had fair skin, was tall, and looked decent. He looked similar to the male public relations officer Yan Bing and was more likely to seduce young girls.
Figure...Gu Tianqi pursed his lips and thought, it's okay.
Anyway, it's not as good as his. If it weren't for his recent lack of exercise, he would have had eight abdominal muscles, but now he only has six. But six is barely acceptable.
As for this kid, he also has muscles, but obviously not as developed as his. He complained in his heart, "Skinny bamboo pole."
Moreover, this guy is staying at a girl's house, and he comes out wrapped in a towel after taking a shower. Doesn't he know how to avoid suspicion? Is he being careless, or does he have bad intentions?
The boy glanced at him, then looked at Chi Nian: "Niannian, who is this?"
Gu Tianqi narrowed his eyes. Nian Nian? Was he the one who called her Nian Nian?
We are just colleagues, is there any need to be so intimate?
Before Gu Tianqi could lose his temper, Chi Nian said, "Brother Qing, this is my second brother, Gu Tianqi, the one I mentioned to you before, the one who helped me a lot."
The man nodded, walked to Chi Nian, and smiled at Gu Tianqi: "Thank you for helping Nian Nian before."
Gu Tianqi's fists hardened. There was something wrong with this man's posture.
His thank you instantly brought him closer to Chi Nian, as if they were a family and he could thank her on her behalf.
And Chi Nian was not surprised by his attitude.
This shows that their relationship is indeed unusual.
Chi Nian said to Gu Tianqi again: "Second brother, this is my roommate, Brother Qing, Fu Jianqing."
The two nodded to each other, both with forced smiles.
Fu Jianqing looked at Chi Nian again and said, "I'm going to put on some clothes. Please ask my second brother to sit down first."
Afterwards, Fu Jianqing left and went into his own bedroom.
Gu Tianqi's strange and awkward feeling became even stronger.
The way these two get along doesn't look like an ordinary colleague relationship at all.
Fu Jianqing's words and actions always revealed that he was the man of the house, as if he and Chi Nian were husband and wife.
"Second brother, go sit on the sofa for a while, I'll pour you a glass of water."
Gu Tianqi looked at her deeply, suppressed his unhappiness, went to the living room, sat on the sofa, and observed Chi Nian's nest.
It's quite neat, unlike this girl's style.
She doesn't like doing housework and is not particular about details in life. She doesn't have obsessive-compulsive disorder or mysophobia. She takes things with her first hand but not her last hand and will never put them back where they belong.
Gu Tianqi has complained about her lifestyle habits more than once.
But she brought up literature and art with him, saying, "How can one live a refined and respectable life if one's heart is barren?"
Looking back at her little life now, it was completely different from the past. Gu Tianqi thought, it seems that her heart is no longer desolate? It feels more fulfilled?
After a while, Chi Nian brought the cup of water and handed it to him.
Gu Tianqi took a sip and looked towards Fu Jianqing's door: "Is he usually like this?"
"What?" Chi Nian said as he picked up the fruit plate on the coffee table and ate a grape.
Gu Tianqi frowned and took her fruit plate. "Eating grapes late at night will cause acid reflux. Don't eat them."
Chi Nian pursed his lips and gave the grapes to him.
While eating grapes, Gu Tianqi said to Chi Nian, "I say, does he usually walk around wrapped in a bath towel?"
Chi Nian was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said no, Brother Qing usually pays attention to it. It was probably because she had just gone out and he was taking a shower at home, so he didn't pay much attention to it, so she came back at the wrong time.
This explanation reassured Gu Tianqi a little. He looked around and said to Chi Nian, "It's pretty clean. Are you feeling well lately?"
Chi Nian took a pillow, hugged it in his arms, and then lowered his voice and said, "Brother Qing loves cleanliness. After he moved in, he always helped me clean the room. I felt embarrassed, so I slowly started to clean the room too. Don't say it, a clean room is very comfortable."
Gu Tianqi ate the sour grapes, his mind flashing back to the time when they did housework together. He asked calmly, "You and him are just colleagues? Why does it feel like you two are so close?"
Chi Nian chuckled: "Did you figure it out?"
Gu Tianqi's mouth twitched, and he swallowed the grape skin directly: "So what's your relationship?"
"He is me..."
Before Chi Nian finished speaking, Fu Jianqing walked out of the room.
She quickly stopped talking, stood up from the sofa, and said to Gu Tianqi: "I'm going back to the room to change clothes and take a shower. You rest for a while. I'll prepare your bedding when I'm done."
Gu Tianqi nodded, said nothing, continued eating grapes, and then watched Chi Nian walk towards her own room.
When she passed by Fu Jianqing, she said, "Brother Qing, you don't need the bathroom anymore, right? I want to take a shower."
"No, I'll see if there's enough hot water later." Fu Jianqing looked back at the water heater in the bathroom. "It's enough, go ahead."
"Okay."
The conversation between the two was actually very ordinary and there was nothing ambiguous about it.
But it was this feeling of tacit understanding, as if they were lovers who had been together for ten years, that made Gu Tianqi feel that this man named Fu Jianqing, who appeared in Chi Nian's house, must be more than just a male colleague who wanted to share the house with her.
So what exactly did this girl want to say but didn’t finish?
What is he to her?
