Chapter 172 I Want You to Be Carefree
Ning Mingluo's slightly distant tone made Ning Feng a little stunned.
He took a deep breath and tried hard to suppress his anxiety.
He left Ning Mingluo before he was born. Although he was forced to do so, he had a very difficult life growing up. Facing this absent father, it was already great that he had no resentment.
He shouldn't expect anything else. It's already good enough to have the attitude he has now. They can take things slowly, as there will be a long time for them in the future.
"Hello." Ning Feng tried his best to show a gentle smile.
Ning Mingluo is an actor and can easily sense a person's emotions, so of course he can see that the other person is nervous.
But the two of them should have had a very close relationship, but because of the long separation, he really didn't know what to say to ease the other person's tension.
Gu Xiucheng looked at the father and son, took Ning Mingluo's hand, took Ning Mingluo to the sofa, and sat opposite Ning Feng.
The two of them showed no reservations about their intimate actions in front of him. Looking at Ning Mingluo's submissive posture, Ning Feng's eyes flashed with discomfort, but he didn't say anything.
This is not something he can control now, and he has no position on it.
After they sat down, silence fell between them again.
Ning Feng clasped his fingers together gently, feeling that he could no longer remain silent, and took the initiative to speak: "What do you like to drink, or what do you want to eat? Let's eat and talk at the same time."
"Just water."
The servant next to him turned around to pour water.
Ning Feng's eyes were always on Ning Mingluo, with no intention of looking away.
Ning Mingluo took a deep breath and finally said, "You are my father."
It was a statement, no need to question or doubt, the man opposite was his father.
Ning Feng froze for a moment, but still nodded slowly, then spoke with difficulty: "I'm sorry that I missed your growth these years. It must have been very difficult without your parents by your side."
Speaking of this, Ning Feng's eyes revealed heartache.
Ning Mingluo shook his head: "I'm fine, grandma takes good care of me, but you." He looked at Ning Feng and said: "You don't seem to be doing well either."
As a child, and even before his death, he hated his father.
But when he slowly learned the whole truth, he realized that the man he once hated was also a pitiful and unlucky person.
These things actually had nothing to do with him. He should have had a more perfect life and a happy family.
But he was forced by his mother to have him, and later he was imprisoned by people with bad intentions because of his appearance. These experiences would be enough to make a normal person collapse.
But the man sitting opposite him now, although a little thin and pale, has a gentleness accumulated over the years. The look in his eyes is full of guilt. There is not a trace of self-abandonment in his whole body. He has a strong heart.
Ning Feng smiled when he heard Ning Mingluo's words, which seemed to show concern for him. "I'm fine now. I'm satisfied as long as I can see you safe. I'm sorry for missing your growth. I'm not a qualified father."
Once you start speaking, other languages don't seem so difficult to speak.
"You don't need to apologize. You had no choice. It's just that I'm grown up now and have my own way of life. Although I'm related to you by blood, we're actually strangers. It may take some time for us to get to know each other."
The child's tone was very sincere, and Ning Feng finally smiled with relief.
For Ning Feng, it was already a very lucky thing that he did not blame himself. He would not ask Ning Mingluo to accept him now.
"Now, it's great to see you again. I'm very happy that you accept me."
Ning Mingluo also felt relieved. After all, this was his father, and he couldn't remain indifferent. But he also seemed unable to accept him so quickly.
There was always a gap between them.
Blood ties them together, but reality also makes them strangers.
"Can you tell me something about yourself? I want to understand you. Before you were born, I was looking forward to seeing you. I feel sorry for missing your growth." Ning Feng looked at Ning Mingluo and gave him a gentle smile.
Ning Mingluo didn't mind sharing some of his own things with this person.
Because he could see the desire and concern in the man's eyes, he really wanted to understand him.
They stayed here for the whole afternoon, chatting about the past. When Ning Mingluo spoke happily about the difficulties of the past, Ning Feng and Gu Xiucheng's eyes flashed with heartache.
Ning Mingluo has grown into the gentle and graceful person he is now. He is really strong and also makes people feel distressed.
After dinner, they prepared to leave. When saying goodbye, Ning Mingluo's eyes were still on Ning Feng's legs.
"Can the leg be cured?" Ning Feng can only rely on a wheelchair now, and sadness flashed in Ning Mingluo's eyes.
In the afternoon, Ning Feng showed him some photos of him when he was young.
At that time, he was full of vigor and vitality, but now he was tortured into this state by that man. Even if this man was not his father, he would feel sorry for such a brilliant young man.
Ning Feng has gotten used to it: "It doesn't matter. I'm already satisfied as long as I can leave that person. I don't care about these legs anymore."
He is no longer at the age of being arrogant and proud, and now he just hopes to have a more stable life.
Ning Mingluo's eyes were on Gu Xiucheng.
Gu Xiucheng said: "I have arranged for the doctor to do some examinations. Whether it can be cured depends on the results."
Ning Mingluo showed a grateful expression.
Ning Feng looked at the way the two people got along and pursed his lips.
After they left, Ning Feng still stood by the floor-to-ceiling window, looking at their backs.
The relationship between two people will always be revealed through some small actions, and there is no way to hide it.
Even though Ning Mingluo was a little shy, he did not refuse Gu Xiucheng's care.
After spending an afternoon together, he could already tell that Gu Xiucheng really liked Ning Mingluo, and Ning Mingluo's heart was also all about Gu Xiucheng.
The subconscious protection and the unconscious following of the eyes all show Ning Mingluo's love for Gu Xiucheng.
He sighed silently. He had no right to interfere in the affairs of these two people. He was just worried about how long Gu Xiucheng would care about Ning Mingluo.
If one day Gu Xiucheng loses interest, what will Ning Mingluo do then?
Because Yan Xiao was interested in him, he locked him up by his side. Later, when he failed to get him, he used even tougher means. However, Gu Xiucheng was ten or even a hundred times more terrifying than Yan Xiao, and was not someone Ning Mingluo could contend with.
"Sir, it's time for you to rest." The servant's reminder interrupted Ning Feng's thoughts.
Forget it, he is still under Gu Xiucheng's care, so what qualifications does he have to interfere in their affairs? He can only remind Ning Mingluo not to get too deeply involved.
The lights of the city at night cast shadows, making people want to go home quickly.
Ning Mingluo looked at the scenery passing by outside the car window, a little dazed.
Gu Xiucheng occasionally glanced at him, but did not speak out to disturb him.
Ning Mingluo didn't come back to his senses until he got home. He unbuckled his seat belt, but did not get out of the car. Instead, he reached out and held Gu Xiucheng's hand.
He whispered, "Thank you for saving him."
He had seen the man's paranoia towards his father, so it must have taken a lot of effort for Gu Xiucheng to bring the man back safely.
Gu Xiucheng held Ning Mingluo's hand with his backhand.
"He is your father, and he is also one of your worries. I want you to have no worries in your heart."
Since he wants to protect this person, he will care about everything Ning Mingluo cares about.
Ning Mingluo should be carefree and free, but her background destined her to be unable to do so. But now that he is by her side, he will do his best to keep all the worries in his lover's heart away from him.
"I don't seem to have any worries or concerns now."
All his worries were taken to heart and then resolved by Gu Xiucheng.
Gu Xiucheng smiled and reached out to pinch Ning Mingluo's chin: "Then from now on, put all your attention on me."
Ning Mingluo looked at Gu Xiucheng seriously. He was completely taken under this man's wing, and the feeling was very warm.
She leaned forward slightly, moved close to the man's lips, and then placed a kiss on his thin lips, then slightly separated them.
Both of their eyes were a little hot. Gu Xiucheng stretched out his arms and held the person on his lap.
Gu Xiucheng's car is very spacious, but the driver's seat is still a bit cramped for two people.
Ning Mingluo sat on Gu Xiucheng's legs with her legs apart, her entire body almost tightly pressed against Gu Xiucheng, their body temperatures were hot even through their clothes.
No one spoke, but as their eyes met, the passionate kiss became more intense.
The white and slender fingers pressed against the car window glass, and the blue veins on them bulged, which showed what the owner was enduring.
The temperature in the car rose, Ning Mingluo's hair stuck to her forehead, and beads of sweat rolled down and fell on a man.
Gu Xiucheng had three buttons of his shirt undone, revealing his full muscles without any restraint. Ning Mingluo placed his hands on them to calm his breathing.
The man looked at the rosy look on Ning Mingluo's face, took a deeper breath, and restrainedly kissed her round shoulders.
Gu Xiucheng's voice was a little hoarse: "Are you okay?"
The beauty in his arms half-opened her eyes: "Well, it's okay, I just feel a little uncomfortable, it's too narrow here."
"Be good, I'll carry you home."
After opening the car door, Ning Mingluo lay obediently in Gu Xiucheng's arms.
The bathroom light came on, but it was two hours later before the two of them came out of the bathroom.
As soon as Ning Mingluo lay down on the bed, he immediately wrapped himself tightly with the quilt. He was really afraid of Gu Xiucheng.
If he had been a little more proactive, Gu Xiucheng would have gone crazy like this.
If this continued, he doubted whether he would be able to get out of bed tomorrow.
Gu Xiucheng lay beside Ning Mingluo and smiled.
"Go to sleep, I won't bother you."
