Chapter 42 Despair



Gu Qingchi approached Xie Luyu and hugged him gently, like a cat that rarely approaches its owner for a hug.

But Xie Luyu didn't move. He frowned and asked in confusion.

"Are you drunk?"

Gu Qingchi held him, his chin resting on Xie Luyu's shoulder. His eyes widened a little, but he still didn't move.

Xie Luyu paused, then rubbed Gu Qingchi’s head, causing it to slightly explode.

Like comforting an autistic cat.

Gu Qingchi let go of his hand, lowered his head, and stood there in a daze, a little confused.

This time, Xie Luyu pushed his head down and buried it in the crook of his neck.

He stood there, tall and gentle, making people feel at ease. The clothes he wore were thick and warm.

"You can cry."

Gu Qingchi didn't move or make a sound. After a long while, Xie Luyu felt drops of hot liquid dripping onto his skin.

This was really sudden.

Suddenly, it was as if the person who had just said with a smile that he would live a good life turned around and was overwhelmed and burst into tears.

There was nothing wrong with Gu Qingchi's expression.

But Xie Luyu could always capture Gu Qingchi's true emotions, and he was terrifyingly sensitive to the subtle changes in Gu Qingchi's emotions.

But even if I realized something was wrong.

Xie Luyu asked nothing and said nothing.

He knew that any words would be superfluous at this moment.

Xie Luyu just gently touched Gu Qingchi's hair and patted his back lightly.

The little tabby cat had been barking loudly in dissatisfaction, but now it became quiet. It seemed to have sensed something was wrong and sat by the door, looking at the two people anxiously.

This was the first time Gu Qingchi cried in all these years, after bearing loneliness for such a long time.

Even if it is silent and suppressed.

Even he himself was surprised and didn't understand why tears kept flowing out.

But it was still a release.

Gu Qingchi was not like this at the beginning. He would make a lot of plans for himself, set a lot of goals for himself, and encourage himself a lot.

Later I just felt troubled and tired.

He acts like he doesn't care about anything, not because of his personality or anything else, but because he really thinks that way.

So much so that he still felt the same when it was all over.

Every moment, he felt that everything was meaningless, pain was meaningless, eating was meaningless, toys were meaningless, and games were meaningless.

Sometimes, he couldn't help but think that life was meaningless.

But in fact he has been avoiding this idea.

He wanted to live, no, it should be said that he longed to live.

So while he suppresses himself, he also forces himself to live like a normal person every day, working every day and eating every day.

But he seemed to have disguised himself so well that no one noticed anything unusual about him.

Unknown to everyone, he was stuck in a quagmire, unable to move his hands and feet, and needed someone to pull him out.

This was the first time in a long time that he tried to reach out and grab something.

This was an attempt almost with malicious intent, and he approached with the intention of destroying himself together.

However, it was this attempt that brought him unexpected gains.

He had been walking alone for so long, and for the first time someone hugged him and told him that he could cry.

Gu Qingchi blinked and big tears fell.

Sure enough, it’s very warm.

It was so warm that there was a response the first time I approached.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Qingchi slowly withdrew from Xie Luyu's arms.

He cried, but there was not much trace, just his eyes were a little red.

Little Lihua also slowly moved out from the door. Just after taking two steps, a gust of wind passed by and the door behind him slammed shut.

Xie Luyu and Gu Qingchi turned around together.

The little tabby boy was so frightened that his fur stood up. He looked at Gu Qingchi and then back at the door.

Finally, she couldn't help it and shrank down at Gu Qingchi's feet in grievance.

Xie Luyu reacted first.

"Do you have the keys with you?"

Gu Qingchi looked up at Xie Luyu and said nothing.

Xie Luyu understood.

"Is there any under the carpet?"

"My agent has it."

"That's easy. Ye Li should still be there. I'll go to the company and get it back."

Xie Luyu happened to have his car keys with him, so he took them out of his pocket.

"Wait for me for a moment. I'll go back and change my shoes."

When Xie Luyu was about to enter the house, he was stopped by Gu Qingchi.

He said slowly.

"I'm a little cold."

He paused and continued.

"I don't want to move."

Gu Qingchi stepped forward tentatively and leaned his head on Xie Luyu's shoulder. He closed his eyes only when he was completely secure, as if he suddenly relaxed.

He said very softly.

"I'm a little sleepy."

Gu Qingchi was really tired and he felt very bad.

He has always tried his best to live a more responsible life and not trouble others.

But he was really tired.

This time he really wanted to be willful. Xie Luyu gave him a reassuring feeling. Xie Luyu always had various ways to solve various problems.

It seems that there is nothing wrong with being so willful.

Xie Luyu stopped and tried to discuss with Gu Qingchi.

"It would be easy if my family was settled, but now nothing is ready--"

Xie Luyu stopped.

Just now, Gu Qingchi's hand was on his shoulder, and he could feel the coldness through his clothes.

In the end, Gu Qingchi slept on the sofa in Xie Luyu's living room all night.

Xie Luyu slept on the floor in the living room.

Xie Luyu's house was really not ready, there wasn't even a bed, but fortunately there were several quilts.

"The information we found is quite complete, including screenshots of chats in the classmates' group, but there is no direct evidence. Personal privacy is well protected now."

He put the information in front of the reporter.

"I really can't find it. How can it be so easy to cheat those celebrities' money?"

The entertainment reporter sitting at the desk also frowned. He thought for a moment and spoke.

"I'll try Gu Qingchi first. If I can cheat, I'll cheat. If not, I'll start from somewhere else. There's always a way."

He flipped through his address book and made a call.

"Hello, Mr. Ye? I'm a reporter from Xinze."

Ye Li over there smiled.

"To schedule an interview, call my assistant."

"No, no, no, I won't bother you with such trivial matters. I have other things to do this time."

The entertainment reporter also laughed.

"You know, let me be frank. The artists under your management seem to have some experience. They are so young, but they have been married and divorced once."

"You can eat whatever you want, but you can't say whatever you want. If you want to spread such rumors to defame the reputation of our artists, I will sue you according to the law."

"You mean you don't intend to--Hey!"

The reporter threw his phone on the table.

"You are an old fox. Don't be fooled."

"What should we do then?"

"Either expose it as a revelation, or try someone else."

"Who should we try? Even his agent can't do it."

"Who else can I test? Test his sponsor, test his lover. I don't believe a man can tolerate this."
