Telepathy
Gu Pei had very heavy dark circles under his eyes, even heavier than those of Lin Xunye who had been staying up late for days.
Lin Xunye licked his dry lips and did not hold Gu Pei's hand.
He couldn't understand what Gu Pei wanted to do.
Chengzi, who was watching the chef cooking not far away, heard the sound and ran back. His little face was wrinkled and he looked over here vigilantly. But when he saw that the person talking to his father was the handsome uncle, he slowed down his pace, rushed towards Lin Xunye, turned around, and stood between the two of them.
Chengzi tentatively shook Gu Pei's hand and said crisply, "Hello, uncle. My father doesn't like shaking hands with strangers. It's not that he's impolite!"
Before Lin Xunye could stop him, Chengzi had already started talking to Gu Pei.
He didn't really want Gu Pei to know about Chengzi's existence, as he was afraid that he would long for a home.
Gu Pei was held by a soft and warm little hand. He looked at the little person in front of him nervously, and a warm current seemed to flow through his chest.
This is his and Aye's child.
The same deep blue eyes and the same mole on the side of the nose, but the eyebrows and eyes are very similar to A Ye's, and the pouty lips are also fleshy, as if they were carved according to Lin Xunye.
Gu Pei smiled and said gently, "Hello, uncle, may I ask your name?"
Chengzi did not answer Gu Pei immediately, but turned around and looked at Lin Xunye.
Lin Xunye swallowed, and the little saliva he had flowed into his throat made him want to cough.
Chengzi is Gu Pei's child, there is no reason for him not to let Gu Pei see him, but Chengzi seems to like him very much.
Lin Xunye bit his lower lip and gave Chengzi an encouraging look.
After getting Lin Xunye's consent, Chengzi smiled and said to Gu Pei: "Uncle, my name is Chengzi, and my full name is Lin Youlang. My father said it means that I will have a safe and smooth life."
Gu Pei's eyes flashed, and he asked: "Youlang?"
May your life be safe and smooth...
Chengzi nodded, shook his head and began to show Gu Pei what Lin Xunye had said to him. As he spoke, Chengzi suddenly shut up and pouted.
He let go of Gu Pei's hand, turned his head and snuggled into Lin Xunye's arms.
Lin Xunye felt that Gu Pei's grip hurt him, so he glared at Gu Pei and quickly checked his right hand.
The little hands are white and clean, without any traces.
Chengzi's little hand was placed in Lin Xunye's big palm, which made Gu Pei want to cry.
He could hardly imagine how Lin Xunye supported this little life every late night.
It's all his fault.
Lin Xunye was worried that Chengzi was feeling unwell somewhere else, so he held him on his lap and asked, "Tell Daddy where you feel unwell."
Chengzi pouted his mouth high and snorted with his little nose. Lin Xunye didn't care that Gu Pei was still there, and coaxed him to ask what was wrong.
Chengzi looked back at Gu Peicai and said, still looking aggrieved: "Dad lied to me. Dad clearly said that Grandfather would come to see Chengzi yesterday, but Grandfather didn't come. And Dad didn't sleep with Chengzi last night. Chengzi suddenly woke up in the middle of the night, and Dad was not there."
When Lin Xunye heard this, he was startled.
He asked: "Did Orange suddenly wake up last night? Why didn't you call your dad?"
When Chengzi was two years old, Lin Xunye bought him a phone watch and taught him how to use it for two days. Chengzi was able to use it very well.
Orange shook his little head like a rattle, "No, no, Daddy is tired, Orange wants to sleep by himself."
Lin Xunye's heart was about to melt.
Last night he ran downstairs in a fit of rage without even telling Chengzi. He must have been scared, yet he was so sensible.
Gu Pei's heartache was no less than Lin Xunye's.
Lin Xunye was almost three months pregnant when she left. For three years, she raised the child alone, lived alone, and did everything alone.
How Gu Pei wished that he was there at that time.
While the three of them were chatting, the dishes had already been served.
There were five dishes on the table. Except for the shredded pork with fish flavor that Lin Xunye ordered, the other dishes were ordered by Chengzi based on the pictures.
Orange especially likes to talk about pictures. He mumbled a lot when ordering. Now that the dishes were served, he swept away his previous unhappiness and pulled Lin Xunye to chatter: "Dad, that green dish looks very nutritious, so I ordered it for Dad. And the one next to it, it's orange, just like Orange's name. Orange likes it, and I hope Dad likes it too."
Orange paused, stretched out his arm and pointed at the farthest dish: "Dad's waist is not good. The video said that what you eat will replenish what you need, so Orange ordered a plate of kidney for him."
After Chengzi finished explaining, Lin Xunye's expression froze.
There are five dishes in total, three of which are kidney-tonifying and one is a cold dish.
Children shouldn’t eat too much of this kind of food, so Lin Xunye asked the waiter to add two light dishes.
He carried Chengzi to a stool nearby, picked up some shredded pork with fish flavor and put it on the plate for him, then turned around and found Gu Pei looking at him with complicated eyes.
Lin Xunye felt uncomfortable being stared at, but he didn't want to talk much to Gu Pei. He was afraid that once he started talking, it would go on and on and that he would be shaken.
Halfway through the meal, Gu Pei, who had been deliberately ignored by Lin Xunye, suddenly came over. Chengzi noticed him and moved closer to Lin Xunye. His chubby little arms immediately hugged Lin Xunye's arms and asked, "Uncle, is there something wrong?"
Gu Pei: "Uncle is fine. I accidentally fell when I came here, and my waist is not very good."
Lin Xunye was eating and looking at the plate of stir-fried kidney worriedly. Hearing what he said, he stood up with a big movement and brought the dish over.
He didn't give it to Gu Pei directly, but asked Chengzi first: "Uncle's waist is broken, can we give this dish to him?"
After Orange finished chewing the food in his mouth, he said, "Okay, but uncle has to say thank you to Orange."
As soon as Chengzi finished speaking, Lin Xunye stuffed the dish into Gu Pei's hand and brought the extra bowl of rice that Chengzi had accidentally ordered to his table.
Then, Lin Xunye quickly sat down and picked up a piece of carrot for Chengzi: "Be good, Chengzi, eat some carrots."
Orange wrinkled his little face and ate the carrot in small bites.
This is also one of the few vegetables he hates.
Gu Pei didn't react yet, but he said first: "Thank you, Chengzi is a great kid."
Aye is also the best dad.
Lin Xunye ignored him, but Chengzi looked at him seriously after chewing the carrot and said, "You're welcome. My dad taught me well."
Gu Pei smiled and sat back at the table.
A plate of stir-fried kidney and a bowl of rice appeared on the originally bare table.
Gu Pei looked at it for a long time. Before the food was completely cold, he took out his mobile phone, turned off the flash and took a silent photo of the table.
Immediately, Gu Pei posted the photo on the social platform without any modification.
I found the copy.
Gu Pei's account is officially certified, and in the past three years he has attracted a lot of attention because of his identity as Lin Gaoyuan's son-in-law and his investment in charity to help find missing people. Once the photo was released, it attracted many people to comment.
The most popular comment below is - Does the boss also need to rely on eating kidneys to prolong his time?
Many people followed suit and left comments.
Most of them were just jokes, and Gu Pei didn't care.
He casually flipped through the comments section and chuckled after seeing a comment titled "Did Mr. Gu find a wife?"
Swipe your finger and the comment will be pinned to the top.
Gu Pei's action that day triggered even more heated discussions.
......
Although he eats little oranges, it makes him bloated easily. After dinner, Lin Xunye takes him to the park to help digest the food.
Lin Xunye was holding Chengzi in one hand and carrying the packed food in the other, trying to reason with Chengzi.
Lin Xunye: "Chengzi is a good kid, right?"
Orange nodded heavily.
Lin Xunye continued, "Then can we eat the leftovers from lunch tonight?"
Normally when Lin Xunye cooks or takes him out to eat he would order the right amount of food for two people, but for some reason today Chengzi even ordered an extra bowl of rice. Luckily Gu Pei was there so nothing would go to waste.
Lin Xunye never let him eat leftovers. He usually ate them himself and made new ones for him. But today he ordered too much. The restaurant's dishes were large in portion and the community was strictly managed, so there were rarely any stray cats around. If he couldn't finish it today, he would have to throw it away.
Chengzi looked up at him and said, "Dad, the video said that we can donate unwanted items to those in need. Can we give this rice to the uncle in the back? He didn't order any food for lunch today, so Chengzi specially ordered a bowl of rice for him."
Lin Xunye was stunned by what he said: "Did you order the oranges specially for uncle?"
"Yeah!" Chengzi nodded and looked back at Gu Pei who had been following them: "Uncle is so pitiful. He has no food to eat. Let's help him."
It was the first time that Chengzi met Gu Pei, but she was so close to him. Not only was she not on guard against Gu Pei, she also cared about whether he had food to eat. Is this the power of blood?
Lin Xunye stopped and listened carefully to Gu Pei's approaching footsteps.
He knew that Gu Pei had been following behind him.
No one was more sensitive to Gu Pei's behavior than him.
Gu Pei saw Lin Xunye stop and struggle for a moment before stepping forward and speaking proactively: "Ah...Brother, are you waiting for me?"
Lin Xunye looked ahead, his palms sweating as he held Chengzi's hand. He raised his hand and brought the packed food to Gu Pei: "Chengzi said he wanted to give it to you, take it."
Without giving Gu Pei a chance to refuse, Lin Xunye immediately said: "If you refuse, Chengzi will be sad."
Gu Pei had no reason not to take it. He quickly snatched the package from Lin Xunye's hand. Before Lin Xunye pulled his hand back, Gu Pei's pinky finger touched his ring finger again.
Lin Xunye looked over subconsciously and was distracted by the lavender ring on Gu Pei's left ring finger.
Lin Xunye couldn't possibly not know the meaning of lavender.
The two fell in love in a lavender field in their previous life, and lavender has many symbolic meanings.
What Gu Pei said to him most often in his previous life was: "Brother, lavender has many meanings, but I like 'waiting for love' and 'blessings' the most. I hope that brother can be safe and sound, and never have any worries. Even if brother gets lost one day and loses me, I will be right here waiting for him to come back."
The memories of his previous life washed away the high wall that had been erected in Lin Xunye's heart. His eyes were glued to the ring on Gu Pei's ring finger and he didn't move away for a long time.
Gu Pei did not move, and even stretched out his five fingers to make it easier for him to observe.
Gu Pei designed the ring himself, using lavender as the main theme, to express his love and wishes for Lin Xunye. If he hadn't lacked the talent for handicrafts, he would have made the ring himself.
Lin Xunye stood there blankly, and Gu Pei accompanied him. Chengzi also remained silent. It was not until a passing car honked that Lin Xunye pursed his lips, said goodbye, and walked away with Chengzi.
Gu Pei didn't chase after him. He stood still and called out, "Brother," just as Lin Xunye was about to leave his sight.
Perhaps it was telepathy, Lin Xunye turned around.
