Chapter 183 Stand still and I will walk towards you
Returning to the misty and inky city again, Ning Mingluo no longer felt the palpitations he had felt before.
His life ended in this city, but he was also reborn here.
After the wedding, the two traveled to many places.
But the destination is still this city.
They came to that small noodle shop again, but unfortunately, they didn’t see the proprietress. It was said that she was on a business trip.
Ning Mingluo and Gu Xiucheng looked at each other.
Does running such a small restaurant require traveling?
The boss lady is quite busy.
After ordering, the two sat in the same seats as last time.
The flowers on the table were similar to the ones they had last time, but they also knew that fresh flowers needed to be changed every day. These were no longer the same flowers as before, but they were still blooming beautifully.
Ning Mingluo actually had doubts in his mind all along. He always felt that Gu Xiucheng seemed to know something about his past, so he asked that question last time.
After getting Gu Xiucheng's affirmative answer, he felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
"Didn't you say that when you come here, you will tell me about the past?"
Ning Mingluo held her chin and looked at the man opposite her leisurely.
Gu Xiucheng didn't wear a formal suit today, but a casual shirt, which made him look gentle and elegant.
He raised his hand to pour tea, and the clear tea soup flowed into the cup.
It doesn't feel like being in a roadside restaurant, but rather like being in a high-end teahouse.
This man was born with nobleness. Even though he was with Gu Xiucheng, Ning Mingluo felt that he should have learned some of it. But in fact, there was still a big difference between his temperament and Gu Xiucheng's.
Handing the tea to Ning Mingluo, Gu Xiucheng said, "When your memory recovered that time, you gradually gained some overlapping memories. In those memories, your situation was not very good."
Ning Mingluo looked at Gu Xiucheng without interrupting him.
But when he thought of Ning Mingluo in his memory, Gu Xiucheng frowned.
"At that time, I clearly remember my heart moving for you, but I didn't appear by your side. I'm sorry."
Seeing Gu Xiucheng's genuinely guilty look, Ning Mingluo shook his head.
"That's the past. There's no need to be sad about the past. Besides, I didn't know you back then, did I?"
"If I had the chance to go back to that time, I would definitely find you sooner."
Ning Mingluo smiled and replied, "Okay."
"Actually, I'm curious, why did you like me back then?"
"I always thought the world was boring. Everything I wanted to do was easy to do, but my illness was strange. Everyone around me was helpless. I didn't really care about it myself, except that when it struck, I was like a wild animal. It wasn't a big deal, until I happened to see you on the screen. Your face was young, but your eyes were sincere. At that moment, I felt my always restless heart was instantly soothed."
Ning Mingluo felt that he would not believe these words no matter who said them.
There are no such coincidences in this world, and no such perfect comfort.
But Gu Xiucheng happened to say this.
This man disdains to lie or sugarcoat anything; if he says so, then that's the truth.
"After that, I arranged for people to check your information, but they were always blocked. We couldn't meet each other and we just missed each other every time. The resources I wanted to arrange for you always appeared in other people's hands." When he said this, Gu Xiucheng's face darkened. If that person had not received retribution now, he would definitely deal with him.
"That's not your fault. It's because I didn't know people well that I encountered those things."
Gu Xiucheng reached out and held Ning Mingluo's hand: "What does this have to do with you? You are just kind, and it is those ungrateful people who take advantage of your kindness."
Ning Mingluo shook Gu Xiucheng's hand back: "So what happened next?"
"My condition worsened and I had to go abroad for treatment. During this period, the thing that I regret the most happened." Gu Xiucheng stopped here, not wanting to continue.
Gu Xiucheng continued what he hadn't finished saying.
"I died while you were abroad."
Gu Xiucheng's hands clenched suddenly.
That was something he was unwilling to face and admit, so he organized such crazy revenge later.
Seeing Gu Xiucheng's bad face, Ning Mingluo patted him: "I know you avenged me. I saw everything you did. Thank you. We have never met, but you are willing to do so much for me. Maybe I was reborn just to repay you."
Gu Xiucheng stared at Ning Mingluo opposite him and almost lost his youth.
If he were the original Gu Xiucheng, he would never let Ning Mingluo outside like that. No matter what obstacles there were, he would try every possible means to keep the person by his side and confine him to his own territory, even if Ning Mingluo might be afraid of him.
He only wants him.
"Your noodles are ready."
The waiter brought the noodles at this moment, and the two of them stopped talking.
It's just that the look in each other's eyes became more intimate.
After finishing my noodles and walking out of the noodle shop, I saw the tree again.
"Maybe our fate is related to this tree. There was a time in my past life when I loved sitting under this tree."
When they met Gu Xiucheng, they met this tree again.
"Maybe." Gu Xiucheng replied to Ning Mingluo.
Past and present lives are all their experiences, and there is no need to divide them so clearly.
As long as you know that the person next to you likes you, that's enough.
After revisiting the old place, Ning Mingluo felt much more relaxed and learned a lot about the past that he had never known before.
At night, in the bedroom, Ning Mingluo seemed to suddenly remember something.
"Come to think of it, it seems like it's been a long time since I've seen you lose control of yourself."
At the beginning, Gu Xiucheng said that he would feel peaceful when he was by his side and that he would not have such violent emotions in his heart, but he was not really a panacea. If it was a disease, there must be some root cause.
Gu Xiucheng hugged Ning Mingluo and said, "Well, after I lost my memory last time, this symptom also disappeared. I had the doctor check it out, and there's nothing wrong."
"That's good. It would be best if you can recover." Ning Mingluo kissed Gu Xiucheng's lips: "Was it very hard before?"
Gu Xiucheng shook his head: "It's okay once you get used to it, but I'm used to you now, so don't leave me in the future, otherwise I'll go crazy."
This might be a flirtatious remark between other couples, but for Gu Xiucheng, it is the truth.
If Ning Mingluo leaves him, he will really go crazy.
After falling asleep, Ning Mingluo frowned.
"Hurry up and sign this contract. After signing, you will be an artist of Xingqi. We have a professional training process that can help you gain a firm foothold in this industry. You will also be able to learn from many senior actors with superb acting skills."
These familiar words made Ning Mingluo's mind explode.
Isn’t this what Xingqi said when he first became popular in the entertainment industry?
At first, he thought he could learn from his predecessors, and Xingqi was a well-known company in the industry with good treatment, so he signed a contract with this company. Who knew that this was just the beginning of jumping into the fire pit.
Later, he even added his own name.
No, you can’t sign it. You absolutely cannot sign it.
"I won't sign. I won't sign a contract with your Xingqi. Please go back." After saying that, Ning Mingluo coldly sent the guest away.
The child star became very popular, but Ning Mingluo did not have the impetuousness of his age. His cold and delicate face was quite intimidating.
The person who came to negotiate the contract frowned. They were talking fine before, why did they suddenly turn against each other today?
Is someone trying to kidnap someone?
The man frowned and continued, "You rejected Xingqi's contract today. Do you think there's any agency that would dare to hire you? You have to know that in this industry, with Xingqi's connections, it's difficult for you to sign with another company. You'll never be able to make a name for yourself. Even if you're at the peak of your popularity right now, this industry has no shortage of people. There will always be someone who will overshadow you."
"That's my business, so I won't bother you with it."
The man gritted his teeth, thinking that he had been instructed by his superiors to sign the person, and now his face was even darker.
He wanted to say something else, but Ning Mingluo had already sent him away.
No matter what, he couldn't fight with a child, so he could only leave in anger.
After everyone left, Ning Mingluo leaned back on the sofa and breathed a sigh of relief.
But what happens after rejecting Xingqi?
Rejecting Xingqi was equivalent to offending half of the entertainment industry, and it seemed that he had no way to continue on this path.
But he is still in school, and apart from this job, it is difficult for him to find a suitable job to help his grandmother. He finally became famous through filming, and if he can maintain this job, it will be enough to improve the lives of him and his grandmother.
My grandmother is old, and it is not easy for her to take care of him.
Hearing no sound from the living room outside, the grandmother came out of the room and saw her grandson sitting on the sofa, looking a little depressed, so she walked over.
"What's wrong? The talks didn't go well."
Ning Mingluo quickly adjusted his expression when he heard his grandmother's voice. He smiled and said to his grandmother, "No, I just said I'll think about it."
"Okay, there's no need to hide it from grandma. I raised you, and I know exactly what you're thinking. You're still young, so don't worry about these things. Grandma can still support you. That circle is too chaotic, and if you don't want to go, then we won't go. Just study hard. If you have a stable job in the future, grandma will be satisfied."
Ning Mingluo leaned over to her grandmother and said, "Thank you, grandma."
Grandma patted his back gently.
Ning Mingluo subsequently tried to contact several companies, but to no avail. As expected, they were all rejected.
Sitting in a cafe, Ning Mingluo always felt like he had forgotten something, but he couldn't find it.
He was staring outside in a trance, when suddenly a black car drove past and Ning Mingluo's eyes lit up.
Hurry to chase.
But the car was gone.
"Luoluo, Luoluo, wake up."
Ning Mingluo was woken up, his mind was very fuzzy, and he felt the dazzling light and subconsciously closed his eyes.
Gu Xiucheng straightened his hair and said, "Why are you crying? Did you have a nightmare?"
Ning Mingluo then realized that everything before was just a dream.
"I can't find you in my dreams." He said aggrievedly.
Gu Xiucheng patted his back and said, "No, no matter when or where, as long as you stand still, I will come to you."
