The three walked towards the rest area, which was shaded all the way, with a gentle breeze, birdsong, and the fragrance of flowers, making it a very pleasant experience.
Song Qingyou and Fu Wenzhou walked in front, while Gu Bai walked behind, looking completely distracted.
He would take out his phone every now and then, and after seeing something, his expression turned grim. He then coldly shoved the phone back into his hand.
As they approached the villa, a waiter led a young man towards them from the opposite direction.
It was Xu Zezhan, whom we hadn't seen in a long time.
Song Qingyou subconsciously looked at Gu Bai, who had probably already seen Xu Zezhan and stood motionless at the corner of the corridor.
Xu Zezhan walked over and greeted him.
Fu Wenzhou: "You're here?"
Xu Zezhan: "Mm."
He looked at Gu Bai, his expression calm: "Gu Bai."
A hint of awkwardness flashed across Gu Bai's face: "Mm."
Xu Zezhan said to Fu Wenzhou, "Do you have time? I have something to tell you."
Fu Wenzhou nodded: "Come to my place."
The three of them entered a small villa. As soon as they entered, Fu Wenzhou and Xu Zezhan went up to the second floor.
On the first floor, Song Qingyou poured herself a glass of water and looked back to see that Gu Bai had followed her in.
She politely asked, "Would you like something to drink?"
Gu Bai said, "I'll take it myself."
He walked over, opened the refrigerator, took out a can of beer, tilted his head back and took a sip. He must have drunk too much, because he choked instantly and coughed until his handsome face turned red.
Song Qingyou handed over a few tissues, and Gu Bai wiped himself casually.
"I married Fu Wenzhou," she suddenly announced.
Gu Bai was taken aback for a moment, then laughed and said, "I've never heard him mention that before. Congratulations! It's really not easy for you two to get together."
Song Qingyou took a sip of water and said meaningfully, "Yes, I used to think I wouldn't live long and was afraid of holding him back, so I always rejected his feelings. If it weren't for his persistence, we wouldn't be where we are today."
“Sometimes I often think, if he hadn’t persisted, or if I hadn’t impulsively gotten together with him, would we have broken up?”
Gu Bai thought of Fu Wenzhou's obsession with her and said firmly, "No, Fu Wenzhou is a very stubborn person. Once he sets his mind on someone or something, he won't give up easily. Even if you stand still and do nothing, he won't give up easily."
Song Qingyou shook her head: "I have many ways to make Fu Wenzhou give up on me, but I just didn't do it. No matter what, Fu Wenzhou is just an ordinary person in this world. He has a heart, and if he gets hurt a few times, he will eventually be disappointed. When disappointment accumulates, he will naturally give up."
Gu Bai took another swig of wine.
Being as clever as he was, he naturally understood the unspoken meaning behind Song Qingyou's words.
The wine tasted much more astringent upon tasting.
After finishing the bottle of wine, he found Song Qingyou staring at him calmly.
"And what about you, Gu Bai?"
"What about me?"
"Not everyone will stand still and wait for you. Whether you move forward or backward is up to you."
upstairs.
Fu Wenzhou leaned against the balcony railing, lit a cigarette, and lazily looked at the shimmering lake surface in the sunlight in the distance.
Xu Zezhan was beside him.
After the two finished discussing business, Xu Zezhan stretched and chuckled, "This place is quite secluded. Who found it?"
"Yan Miao."
Just then, Yan Miao called Xu Zezhan's phone.
Yan Miao asked, "Xu Zezhan, are you here yet? I begged and pleaded to get Gu Bai to come over and create this opportunity for you. If you miss this chance, you won't get another one. Do you really want to keep running away?"
Xu Zezhan: "I'm with Fu Wenzhou."
"Oh? You're here, that's good." Someone called her from the other end, and she quickly hung up the phone.
The area around my ears was quiet again.
Fu Wenzhou exhaled a smoke ring, then casually popped it, "Still planning to leave?"
Xu Zezhan sighed: "I don't know."
Fu Wenzhou glanced at him sideways, then put his arm around him and walked out, "Come on, let's go have a couple of drinks."
Without saying a word, he led his men downstairs, where they saw Gu Bai and Song Qingyou standing in front of the French windows, talking about something.
Hearing the noise, the two looked over at the same time.
The difference is that Song Qingyou is interested in Fu Wenzhou, while Gu Bai is interested in Xu Zezhan.
Their eyes met, and Xu Zezhan was the first to look away.
Gu Bai crushed the empty can in his hand, took two steps forward, and asked, "Are you finished talking?"
Fu Wenzhou hummed in agreement. "We're done chatting. I was planning to go grab a couple of drinks. Didn't you want to rest? Aren't you going home?"
"Where should we go for a drink? Count me in," Gu Bai said.
Fu Wenzhou pushed Xu Zezhan forward and said lazily, "In that case, you take Xu Zezhan to Yan Miao's place. I need to stay home with Youyou."
He paused, then added, "As a married person, I won't compete with you single guys for drinks."
Gu Bai: "..."
Xu Zezhan: "..."
Seeing that the two were standing still, Fu Wenzhou kicked Xu Zezhan in the butt: "What, are you two children? You stop talking after arguing? Do I have to set up a table and judge who is right and who is wrong for you?"
Xu Zezhan was caught off guard by the kick and stumbled, accidentally bumping into Gu Bai.
He instinctively reached out to grab something, and Gu Bai reached out to steady him as well.
The next moment, Gu Bai instinctively let go and hastily stepped back.
Xu Zezhan lowered his eyes slightly, a hint of hurt flashing in them, but he didn't show it on his face and walked out first.
Gu Bai's face turned pale and then flushed, finally settling into a look of anger. He strode after Xu Zezhan, yelling, "Xu Zezhan! Who the hell are you trying to fool with that attitude?! You stop right there!"
Song Qingyou followed and looked outside, only to see Xu Zezhan walking very fast ahead, with Gu Bai chasing after him in a fit of rage.
