Gu Qingxian likes to read current affairs magazines. Every night after finishing get off work at the coffee shop at 9 pm, Shen Ye would rush to buy books and magazines for him. When he got home, he would read them to Gu Qingxian first, and then after Gu Qingxian fell asleep, Shen Ye would turn on his computer to continue his writing career.
Back at the rented room, I took out my key, opened the door, and went inside.
Gu Qingxian was sitting on the balcony enjoying the breeze, his back to the moonlight, so Shen Ye couldn't see the expression on his face.
"I've told you so many times, it's cold outside. Come on, let's go inside." The weather was unusually cold, especially since Gu Qingxian wasn't even wearing a coat.
Shen Ye reached out to help him, but he grabbed her hand. "Xiao Xi, what is your wish?"
Shen Ye looked at the handsome man but didn't intend to respond. It was too cold outside, and he was afraid that Gu Qingxian would catch a cold. "Let's go inside and talk first."
"Little Stream, can you tell me what you wish for? Or what do you like?"
"My wish is to be with you every day. I like... Okay, let's go inside." He thought he would never have the chance to say the word "you" out loud in his life.
Back indoors, Shen Ye prepared to take out the latest issue of the current affairs magazine she had bought and read it to Gu Qingxian. Unexpectedly, Gu Qingxian held Shen Ye's hand tightly and said, "Okay, we'll be together every day, Xiaoxi. When my eyes are better, you'll follow me wherever I go, okay?"
"Okay, but I'm afraid you'll... kick me out later." As she spoke, her eyes actually reddened.
"Silly, such a thing will never happen in this lifetime," Gu Qingxian chuckled.
Shen Ye thought a lot. Looking at Gu Qingxian's thin and handsome face, he held back the tears in his eyes and tentatively asked, "What are your thoughts on homosexuality?"
"I have no opinion. Everyone has their own thoughts and ideas, and others have no right to judge them."
"So... if a guy likes you, what would you think? Or what would you do?" he asked cautiously.
"How could that be? Who would like a blind person like me? Not to mention men, no woman would like me either," Gu Qingxian said with a self-deprecating laugh.
Trying hard to swallow her emotions and make herself sound normal, she said, "What if there really was a man who liked you just the way you are?"
“If…” Gu Qingxian thought for a moment and replied, “If it’s impossible, then, Xiaoxi, I’m a little sleepy.”
He seemed to understand what Shen Ye meant. He didn't know what he would do, so he could only avoid answering. In short, it was true that he didn't want to separate from Lin Xi.
Not receiving a reply, Shen Ye couldn't deny feeling disappointed. After spending so much time together, he was increasingly certain that Gu Qingxian was Lian Jingzhi's second incarnation. Perhaps it was fate taking pity on him, allowing them to meet again?
He was filled with an indescribable emotion, an emotion that kept him sitting in front of the computer all night, lost in thought. He ignored the editor's reminders to update and the barrage of messages from readers in the group chat.
He didn't rest all night, and early the next morning, he heard the sound of spatulas clattering in the kitchen. He ran out to see what was happening and found Gu Qingxian making breakfast.
Gu Qingxian usually makes breakfast because he knows that Shen Ye is very tired every day and goes to bed late at night, so he tries his best to share some of the burden with Shen Ye.
