Gu Qingchi was knitting something, no one knew what he was knitting, he just simply liked knitting. The part he had already woven was in a bit of a strange shape. There was a large ball of wool on the floor next to the sofa, it was fluffy and was rolling little by little with his movements.
The little tabby stretched out his paw and touched the ball. The ball rolled and then he quickly let go, as if he wanted to touch it but didn't dare to.
On the day when Gu Qingchi and Xie Luyu went to see a movie, there was an event in the mall. The puppet person who was organizing the event stopped them and gave them a lottery ticket. After they went to redeem it, they found that the prize was a few balls of fluffy wool and sweater needles.
At first, Xie Luyu wanted to use it to knit a scarf for Gu Qingchi, and then Gu Qingchi thought it was fun and started knitting too. At first, he just played with it, and later he knitted whenever he had time. He didn’t care if he made mistakes in the stitches and just knitted whatever he could.
In their free time, the two of them would sit on the sofa and knit together.
Compare the progress after knitting for a while.
Gu Qingchi's weaving was very casual, fast, and rough, and there would be a hole from time to time.
Xie Luyu chose his words very carefully.
"In terms of area, I am convinced of my defeat."
Then the two of them looked at each other and started laughing, laughing so hard that they fell on the sofa.
After laughing, Xie Luyu turned his head to look at Gu Qingchi. The sunlight shone on his body, outlining the contour of his profile. Gu Qingchi was always indifferent to the outside world, and the same was true when he smiled. No matter what his mood was, it was always like that, just like the undercurrent surging in the sea, but the sea surface remained calm.
The first time Xie Luyu met someone like Gu Qingchi, he cried quietly and laughed quietly and silently. But when you get to know him better, you will know that he has just lived in seclusion for too long, so he has lost the ability to laugh happily and cry heartily.
Xie Luyu suddenly asked.
"How do you feel today?"
Doctor Jiang needed to know Gu Qingchi's condition. Gu Qingchi reported regularly at first, but later he became lazy and didn't want to say too much, so Xie Luyu came to ask every day.
Even if he asked this question, Gu Qingchi would still be willing to answer it without having to report regularly like he does every day when doing tasks.
All his answers were his true feelings. If it was good, he said it was good, and if it was bad, he said it was bad. At that time, he didn't have the energy to hide it. Eating well, sleeping well and just staying alive every day exhausted all his energy.
Gu Qingchi answered quickly today, just like yesterday.
"very good."
Gu Qingchi has been feeling really good these past few days. He no longer has the state of eating on time every day and getting enough sleep. He lives a life that is clearly very hard, but for some reason, he always feels sad.
It seems that there is always a time in life when you feel inexplicably depressed, but when it passes, everything starts to brighten up.
Gu Qingchi has something to do every day, like weaving or watering the Christmas cactus she bought a few days ago, taking good care of the lush little life.
He also bought a cabinet. It was not an expensive big brand, but just a small workshop nearby. It was so small that it had no brand and no door-to-door delivery. The craftsman made it himself and sold as many as he made. He brought it back, assembled it himself, and placed it on the first floor to store his orchids and his increasing number of small things.
He also bought a car, which was not expensive and had a large trunk. This car used up all his remaining savings, but whenever he wanted to go somewhere, he would always go there. Occasionally, he would also think of buying milk tea, and greedily add full sugar, pearls, and coconut flakes, and then he would spend some time happily.
He also learned how to cook. Xie Luyu taught him step by step how to use a potato, a string bean, a handful of rice and a small pot to make dinner for one person.
He learned to organize his clothes according to the seasons and to add more clothes when it was cold.
Although many things are still done very clumsily.
But he started to live a good life, learned to take care of himself, and found joy in the little things in life.
In fact, Gu Qingchi has not been used to living alone for so long. He has never lived alone, and he doesn't know how a person should live.
He is indeed excellent, but no matter which world he is in, he has not graduated from college. He is indeed an adult, but he is not used to living alone.
His elders had not had time to teach him everything, and Gu Qingchi himself always felt that there was still a lot of time.
Therefore, when he suddenly became a human being, he felt at a loss. He couldn't and didn't want to learn. He wanted to live a good life, but he couldn't let go of the past.
So Xie Luyu filled this role. He taught Gu Qingchi step by step how to live comfortably, how to entertain himself in his spare time, and how to make friends, showing him a whole new way of life.
Gu Qingchi said that he wanted to live a good life, but he was always carrying such a heavy past that made him feel like he was stuck in a quagmire. Even moving a finger seemed so difficult, and Xie Luyu pushed him.
After carrying the heavy burden alone for such a long time, he finally let go of the heavy burden, stopped wandering, and decided to take root and grow steadily.
Gu Qingchi suddenly said to Xie Luyu one day.
"I want to buy a house, my own house."
Xie Luyu stopped what he was doing.
"What kind do you want to buy? I have a friend who works in real estate and can get the inside price."
Gu Qingchi did not refuse immediately as he did before. Instead, he drew the line clearly. He smiled and said thank you.
At that time, Xie Luyu knew that Gu Qingchi no longer needed anyone.
He slowly talked about his ideal house. He said that it didn't need to be too big because he lived alone, it had to face the sun because his little cat needed to get some sun, and he wanted to have a good job in the future so he wanted a house near his company.
As he was speaking, he suddenly stopped, looked at Xie Luyu and said with a smile.
"Thank you."
When that hint of smile disappeared, he said softly.
"And, I'm sorry."
Xie Luyu curled up his hands on his knees, then consciously relaxed them. It was his turn to say this.
Gu Qingchi walked up to him and handed him a cup of warm milk.
Xie Luyu was originally pruning the leaves of Sophora japonica and took off his gloves to take it.
He heard Gu Qingchi say softly.
"We are even now."
From now on, you are no longer the shadow that follows me everywhere.
Xie Luyu's heart felt inexplicably empty, as if something extremely precious had been quietly lost without his knowledge.
Gu Qingchi moved to a place near his company. The house perfectly met his requirements. It was chosen by Gu Qingchi himself. Among so many houses, he fell in love with this one at first sight.
It’s not big, but it has everything, including a small garage.
There are two floors, with a living room on the first floor and only three rooms on the second floor, including a master bedroom, a study and a cloakroom. There is not even a guest room. It is a small house designed for one person to live comfortably. Because it is not big, the living room downstairs seems a bit crowded, but Gu Qingchi likes it very much.
The decoration is self-contained, with a warm style, and it is very convenient to go to the company, but it is expensive.
Gu Qingchi originally wanted to borrow money from Ye Li to pay the down payment, but when he got to Ye Li, he asked everything clearly in a few seconds. To be honest, in Ye Li's opinion, the house had good security, but other aspects were not good enough.
It was rare for Gu Qingchi to want something, and in the end Ye Li bought it for him and also took care of all the formalities.
In Ye Li's words, it would be better to owe him the money than to owe the bank. It would be very troublesome to go to the bank to do this and that. Gu Qingchi thought about it and agreed.
"I was wondering why you suddenly told me you wanted to work a few days ago. I still have a few on hand. Are you interested?"
Gu Qingchi smiled and nodded.
He had asked Gu Qingchi before if he needed some activities purely to make money, but Gu Qingchi refused. At that time, he had his film remuneration in hand and had no shortage of anything.
Ye Li was turning the pen. Gu Qingchi should be quiet for a while now, as everyone has not forgotten that incident yet.
If it is to film a movie, it would be difficult. Ye Li is unwilling to compromise. Now unless Gu Qingchi returns to act in TV dramas, even Ye Li will not be able to get scripts of the same quality as before. Famous directors don't like to hire actors who are too controversial. They are their own signature brands and there is no need for such hype.
But if Gu Qingchi simply wants to make money, Ye Li has a thousand ways to do it.
"Hey, Doctor Jiang, I'll ask you to be more careful in the future. Don't forget--"
The person on the other end of the phone sounded gentle and interrupted Xie Luyu's words.
"Oh, I know, I know. I've done it many times. I visit you every fifteen days, and we talk on the phone every five days."
"Then I'll hang up. If you have anything to say, please call me."
Xie Luyu hung up the phone, turned around and saw Pan Xiaocheng's face becoming gradually rounder after marriage.
Xie Luyu sighed.
"Don't look at me. It's been so many days. Have all the comments been deleted? Have all the marketing accounts been blocked?"
"It's already been dealt with, but you still don't trust me?"
Although Pan Xiaocheng is useless in other aspects, he is still trustworthy at work.
"Keep going. There's still some revelations out there. If you search for them, you'll find a lot more. What's going on here?"
Xie Luyu has been very busy recently. After he caused a huge uproar on the Internet, he threw everything to Pan Xiaocheng and ran to find Gu Qingchi.
I was full of questions and shock, but I hadn't done anything or asked anything, but I found a shivering cat in the freezing cold.
Then I started raising cats, growing flowers and knitting scarves.
Now, the cats that used to shiver in the cold wind now have their own little house with a fireplace and filled with food.
Xie Luyu finally had time to spare, and when he had time he had to keep an eye on Gu Qingchi, and also be careful not to let Gu Qingchi's family come looking for him.
Another thing I've been dealing with is the comments online.
In fact, Pan Xiaocheng and Ye Li handled it together. They did a good job in suppressing it and the timing was right. It didn’t cause any backlash and it was suppressed quietly. It didn’t even stay on the hot searches for long.
Now the comments under Gu Qingchi’s Weibo are almost all suppressed.
But a casual search can still find some disgusting things. Xie Luyu even wants to spend money to delete them all. In fact, it is almost over now, and it doesn’t make any difference whether to delete it or not. But Xie Luyu is willing to spend money, and no one can stop him.
Pan Xiaocheng muttered a few words.
"Got it. I'll deal with it, but it can't be clean. If it's too clean, it will seem deliberate and unnatural. But those who are too extreme can be dealt with easily."
"Then we can handle as much as we can."
Xie Luyu opened his phone and checked Gu Qingchi's Weibo as usual. Occasionally, there would be a few negative comments, and he would respond to them.
As soon as he opened it, he found that Gu Qingchi had sent a new Weibo post, which was forwarded.
[In the film Nirvana, he plays the supporting role of Silva. 】
The accompanying pictures are movie stills.
The first photo shows the male and female protagonists in the front, wearing Latin dance dresses, looking extremely elegant, but the most eye-catching person is the black-haired Asian man behind them, wearing jeans and a simple jacket.
His eyes were bright and beautiful, so bright that even the sky seemed to clear up.
The second photo is a solo photo of Zhang Gu Qingchi, which was taken from the movie. Slater thought it was so beautiful, so he specially cut it out and made it into a still.
In the distance is a church and a flock of white doves taking off.
The sun shines on the roads in the small town. The people inside are dressed neatly, with their hair hanging down on their foreheads. They hold a baguette in their arms and a white rose in their hands.
But he himself is more eye-catching than the white rose.
The comments soon increased. After the divorce incident, those who still follow Gu Qingchi are loyal fans and those who really like him.
[Ahhh! My Chi Chi is out, the movie is about to be released, right? Let’s make arrangements! ]
[It’s not easy. I thought my brother had retired.]
[Star chasers please stay away from him. Our Chi Chi is an actor and just wants to focus on acting. ]
[Although, okay, even if we get married, we can still get divorced, right? I can do that!]
[Since the younger sister can do it, the older sister can do it too. 】
Occasionally, a few discordant remarks were suppressed, but Ye Li knew that it was only when the news of the release of this movie became a hot topic that it would be the time to really cheer up.
