Chapter 60 Surprise "Let's celebrate the New Year together next year?" ...
Ever since Gu Shiying made it clear that he was not single, Gu Qinglang stopped mentioning Li Qianqian, and it was obvious that Li Qianqian had no intention in this regard. The two of them were set up by their parents, and in fact, it was just to introduce them to each other. Whether they were attracted to each other or not was a matter between the two young people.
The matter was left unresolved.
The more relatives talked at the dinner, the more lively it became. But Gu Shiying felt more and more uncomfortable as he listened. His father became excited after drinking and later started discussing the issue of the bride price.
After all the relatives left, Gu Qinglang drank the sobering tea handed to him by his wife and calmed down.
Gu Shiying didn't drink the alcohol on the pretext of being allergic to it. He didn't want to stay here any longer as it was really uncomfortable.
Gu Shiying: "Dad, I have something to tell you in private."
Gu Qinglang: "What can't be said directly? This is also you..." Mom.
After drinking, Gu Qinglang's expression was not as gentle as usual, and his underlying personality was gradually revealed.
Seeing that Gu Shiying's face was gloomy, the stepmother was very considerate and immediately stood up.
"You guys chat, Yifan is going to sleep," she patted Gu Qinglang and whispered, "Don't talk nonsense."
Gu Qinglang drank some tea and became much more sober. When he looked up again, he found that he had never seen the expression on his son's face before. He was actually a little offended.
Gu Shiying was a little unhappy tonight because his father was bragging about his girlfriend. Most of the time, he used it to show off in front of Gu Qinglang.
The father and son were in harmony for a few days, but Gu Shiying couldn't pretend anymore. He didn't like Gu Qinglang always talking about his girlfriend.
Gu Qinglang can drink quite well, and he is much more sober now: "What do you want to tell me?"
Gu Shiying took a deep breath: "Dad, I want to confess something to you. I hope you can understand me after listening to me."
Gu Qinglang's heart skipped a beat when he saw how serious he was. He felt that Gu Shiying was going to say something that would surprise him.
He thought about it and came to a conclusion: "Could it be that your partner wants you to marry into his family?"
Gu Shiying: "..." His father's thinking seemed too limited. He told him calmly, "No, my partner is a man."
Gu Qinglang's brain froze for a few seconds to digest this sentence.
Gu Shiying didn't seem to be joking with him, and the faint smile on his face froze.
Gu Qinglang: "What did you say?"
Gu Shiying repeated, "Dad, I'm gay. I like men. Homosexuality is innate and cannot be changed. I don't like girls."
He breathed a sigh of relief, finally saying it out.
Gu Qinglang felt like he had been thrown from heaven to hell. He looked at Gu Shiying in disbelief and was speechless for a long time.
"You like men, you are gay?!"
Gu Shiying: "Yes."
Gu Qinglang covered his chest and said, "You, you can't change?"
Gu Shiying: "It can't be changed."
Gu Qinglang felt as if the sky had fallen. He had boasted to others today about how much dowry he would give to the woman, but now it seemed like a joke.
He wanted to lose his temper with Gu Shiying, but after gathering some energy, he sat back on the sofa like a deflated ball.
He didn't understand his son at all.
Gu Shiying stood up: "That's what I want to say. I'm going to grandma's house tomorrow morning."
Gu Qinglang just watched his 1.8-meter-tall son enter the room.
He missed a lot of Gu Shiying's growth process, and now he can't even scold him. It seems that he has no reason to care about this son.
The next morning, after having breakfast, Gu Shiying picked up his suitcase and prepared to leave.
Gu Qinglang thought about it all night last night and didn't sleep much. When he got up in the morning, he took the initiative to send him to his grandmother's house.
Along the way, Gu Qinglang said nothing.
He put a lot of New Year gifts for Gu Shiying's grandmother in the car.
After arriving at his grandmother's house, Gu Qinglang realized that he had not been there for many years.
Grandma stood at the door with a smile waiting for Gu Shiying.
"Hey, I'm back. I've been waiting for you for a long time. Are you hungry?"
"Qinglang, come in and sit down."
Gu Qinglang carried the New Year gifts into the house, while Gu Shiying carried his own suitcase and went upstairs.
When he packed up and went downstairs, Gu Qinglang had finished his tea and stood up to leave.
Gu Shiying saw him off to the door: "Drive carefully on the road."
Gu Qinglang patted his shoulder. When his wife passed away, the child was a head shorter than him, but now he is taller than him.
"Take good care of your grandma. I can't change your sexual orientation, but you need to be safe."
One night, he was heartbroken and looked haggard.
Gu Qinglang: "Is there anything you want to tell Dad? Um, are the other party's parents really open-minded?" After he figured it out, he felt that Gu Shiying's girlfriend's family was well-off, and the fact that his parents agreed to this was probably a lie to him. He subconsciously felt that parents of homosexuals should not be so open-minded.
Gu Shiying: "I've been to their home, and they're quite open-minded now. He has an older brother, and his mother also cares about our daily lives."
When the word "mother" was mentioned, Gu Qinglang once again thought of his late wife, sighed, and wondered if his son became a homosexual because of the lack of his care.
Gu Qinglang: "That's good. As I said before, if you feel wronged outside, just call dad."
Gu Shiying: "Okay."
He had never expected that Gu Qinglang had such a strong ability to accept things. Perhaps it was because they were not that close. Because of the birth of their second child over the years, Gu Qinglang did not give Gu Shiying the emotional value of a father. He wanted to control it but couldn't, and he felt unjustified.
Gu Qinglang drove back to the city.
As soon as he left, his grandmother asked Gu Shiying all kinds of questions, and every question she asked was about his summer roommate.
Gu Shiying would call her grandmother every one or two weeks and often mentioned Fu Huan. Her grandmother also liked this young man who resonated with her in cooking.
"When you have time, you must bring your classmates to your home to play again!"
"Okay."
As the New Year is approaching, Gu Shiying helps his grandmother with housework every day. Only at his grandmother's house does he seem to have a little taste of home and the New Year.
Gu Qinglang's side is more of a world of fame and fortune, but here is more pure.
Grandma has few children, only my uncle. On New Year's Eve, it was just their family, plus Gu Shiying and grandma, but they still had a lively time.
My uncle bought a lot of fireworks this year. After eating the New Year’s Eve dinner, the whole family set off fireworks on the small lawn.
Gu Shiying went to the second-floor balcony. He quietly started a video call with Fu Huan. The two did not speak. They both remembered the first fireworks at the seaside.
Until the fireworks are over.
Fu Huan whispered, "I want to watch the fireworks with you next New Year."
"Okay," he said casually, "Fu Huan, I told my dad I have a boyfriend."
Fu Huan's breath was slightly stagnant. He thought Gu Shiying would keep it a secret from his family.
Gu Shiying added, "But grandma and the others don't know yet."
Fu Huan chuckled softly, "It's okay. This is beyond my expectations."
Gu Shiying: "Very happy."
Fu Huan: "Very happy, so happy that I want to kiss you."
Gu Shiying guessed that he was talking about something else, and he clicked his tongue on the phone.
"Kiss."
Fu Huan also gently returned a kiss: "Happy New Year, baby."
Gu Shiying: "Happy New Year."
Fu Huan: "I miss you."
Gu Shiying: "I miss you too."
Fu Huan: "I want to see you right away."
Gu Shiying: "We have seen each other now."
Fu Huan: "I can't touch anyone."
Gu Shiying: "Pervert."
Fu Huan: "Only you."
Gu Shiying: "Don't talk, watch the fireworks."
As long as you add a few shades of obscenity to Fu Huan's words, you will find his true thoughts.
Gu Shiying could accurately understand his thoughts without even listening to his inner voice.
Mind reading seems to be of no use between the two of them, but it must be said that mind reading is also the thread that starts their love.
The New Year's process is the same as in previous years, with not much difference.
Although Fu Huan urged Gu Shiying to return to Beijing on the third day of the New Year, this was just his idea. As long as his grandmother was still alive, it would be impossible for Gu Shiying to return to Beijing after the New Year.
Starting from the second day of the New Year, relatives started to visit and give New Year gifts. Gu Shiying's uncle and his family also planned to accompany his aunt back to her parents' home on the third day of the New Year to pay New Year's greetings.
On the third day of the Lunar New Year, my grandmother's sister, Gu Shiying's aunt, came to our house.
Before the New Year, the family had prepared a lot of oil-pressed meat dishes, and all we had to do was stew them. After lunch, my aunt and her family went home.
Gu Shiying had just finished cleaning the kitchen when he heard his grandmother calling him.
"Xiao Ying, Xiao Ying!"
"What's up?"
"Your friend is here to see you."
"My friend? Brother Jane?"
Gu Shiying walked out of the door, and the smiling muscles on his face couldn't help but rise: "Why are you here?"
Fu Huan smiled at him.
Gu Shiying suppressed his excitement and turned to say to his grandmother, "Grandma, he is Fu Huan."
Grandma always smiled and said, "I know, I know, Xiaohuan, come in, it's cold outside."
Gu Shi received Fu Huan's backpack and the New Year gift in his hand, and he was a little excited.
Fu Huan replied to his grandmother: "It's not too cold."
It has been a long time since I felt like someone came to celebrate the New Year with me. I just want to celebrate the New Year with him.
Grandma: "Xiao Huan, are you from the north? You're really tall."
Fu Huan: "Yes, I am from the north, my family is in Beijing."
Grandma: "I know, I know. Xiaoying told me everything. It's just the three of us this afternoon. I'll make you a delicious meal tonight. I guarantee you've never had it before!"
Fu Huan: "Thank you, grandma."
Grandma: "Xiao Huan must be tired after coming from Beijing. Xiao Ying, take him to your room to rest."
Gu Shiying: "Oh, then I'll come down and help you later."
Grandma: "No need, you can play for a while and then come down, we are not busy."
Gu Shiying quietly pulled Fu Huan's sleeve and went upstairs.
As soon as they entered the room, Gu Shiying took the initiative to hug Fu Huan's neck. The two of them hugged each other simply without saying a word.
Fu Huan put his arm around his waist and kissed the side of his face: "Are you so touched?"
Gu Shiying snorted: "You didn't even tell me in advance."
Fu Huan: "I miss you so much."
Gu Shiying smelled the faint ocean-scented shower gel on Fu Huan: "I miss you, too."
Fu Huan: "Let's celebrate the New Year together next year?"
Gu Shiying thought for a moment and said, "Okay."
