It was ten o'clock in the evening again. When Lin Xu had tidied up his desk and washed up and was ready to go to bed, he had to face the fact that he had left Gu Jinzhi alone all night.
He didn't know what to reply.
So after carefully reading all the messages sent by the other party during this period, he said dryly: "I worked overtime tonight. I was busy."
Now I realize how useful the identity of a social person is. If you run out of words, just say you worked overtime.
In fact, Lin Xu did review some subjects of the first year of high school seriously all night. The difficulty was not great for him, but it took a process to awaken his previous learning memory.
Zhizhi Mangmang seemed to be staring at her phone all the time, and replied immediately: "I don't believe it."
Gu Jinzhi, a working man, always gets off work on time at 5 pm. Now that he is home, there is no need for him to work overtime. He thinks that Amour
just doesn't want to reply to him. But Gu Jinzhi couldn't figure it out. What reason does the other party have to ignore him? He also didn't accept his transfer. He was a little confused.
For Gu Jinzhi, all problems should be solved with money, not to mention that the uncle opposite came here in the first place, right?
"I'm not lying." Lin Xu felt a little guilty, but he also felt that for students, studying is work, and he didn't lie.
"Then prove it to me." Did he go out to fool around? Gu Jinzhi has also heard from netizens how unreliable online dating is, who knows how colorful the other person's nightlife is.
Gu Jinzhi thinks the uncle should be good at making boys happy, otherwise he is actually a little angry now, as if he has been betrayed. This strange possessiveness makes him very unhappy.
It may be because the other party paid attention to him on the Internet during the day, which made him a little moved for a while, but he doesn't know who he is sincerely devoted to in real life.
Gu Jinzhi thought at this moment, if he was caught cheating, he would definitely make amour die on the Internet! After all, this is his "first love"~
Lin Xu has a headache, and the other side is pressing step by step. He had no choice but to dig out a white shirt from the closet with great difficulty, put it on dejectedly, then turned on his laptop and pretended to be working at home, and took a crooked photo with his mobile phone.
Then he sent it to Gu Jinzhi.
The photo showed a pair of hands with distinct knuckles on the keyboard, and the background was Lin Xu's white shirt and a part of the wooden floor. Just by looking at the photo, it can be confirmed that they were at home.
Gu Jinzhi did not expect Amour to be so impulsive. He originally thought that the other party was going to refute something.
However, the image of the other party in his mind became clearer, and the mysterious veil was lifted.
As for the picture that the other party had posted in the group before, it was completely high-Photoshopped, the background was fake, and it was a distant view with only the outline of the face.
Now Gu Jinzhi looked at the slightly bulging veins on the other person's forearms and the shirt that showed his waist, as if he could feel the temperature of a real person. It should be as cool as his voice, not greasy.
Lin Xu had never thought that the photos he took casually for a job would have such an atmosphere in the eyes of others, and he had never thought that Gu Jinzhi would send them to his friends proudly.
"I guess my target is a handsome guy, at least not a fat otaku~" Gu Jinzhi said leisurely to Xu Zhou.
The other side was simply speechless: "What's wrong with you? It's just a casual clap. Maybe you have a pockmarked face? Besides, aren't there a lot of handsome trainees in your company? How can you have such a limited vision, Mr. Gu?"
Gu Jinzhi rolled his eyes: "How can they be the same? They are outsiders. Besides, haven't you heard of the sense of mystery?" No matter how good-looking he is, it is difficult for Gu Jinzhi to look sideways. His current interest in Amour comes from the unknown and his fantasy of the other's image.
Now, Gu Jinzhi thinks that Amour is a mysterious and reliable uncle, and a little cold, although he is still a gigolo at heart.
But now, he was still willing to keep looking around. To put it bluntly, he had to see when the other party was going to cheat him.
"He didn't ask you for money?" Xu Zhou didn't believe it. He knew that everyone wanted to take a bite of Gu Jinzhi, a big piece of fat meat.
Gu Jinzhi felt amazing at this point, but he finally got back at Xu Zhou. He quickly found the screenshot of the transfer he had sent: "My dear grandson, look carefully, he didn't take it!"
"Okay, go play by yourself, be careful not to get involved, otherwise he will really suck your blood dry." Xu Zhou reminded him that the less he indulged in small profits, the deeper his mind was.
"Get lost." Gu Jinzhi was almost annoyed to death by this idiot, as if he was a fool.
"But why, he looks so young." Gu Jinzhi looked at him a few more times and felt that his hands did not look mature. Then he thought he was crazy, because palmists were not as good as him.
"Well, I misunderstood (roll)." Gu Jinzhi replied.
"Brother, I can't sleep because of insomnia. Please accompany me." Gu Jinzhi guessed that the other party probably wanted him to go to bed early again, so he took the initiative to ask.
Sure enough, Lin Xu felt that he had nothing to say, and just sent a message: "Have a good rest."
Lin Xu frowned, and slowly changed back into his pajamas with embarrassment, and lay down on the bed and tucked in the corners of the quilt. His eyes were blank for two seconds.
He thought, but he didn't have insomnia.
But Gu Jinzhi sent another emoticon of a rolling kitten, which looked pitiful. Lin Xu would not refuse, after all, it seemed like his duty to accompany his partner at this time.
After taking a deep breath, he widened his eyes a little and cheered himself up, and replied with only one word: "Okay."
Gu Jinzhi had long been annoyed with amour going to bed so early every day. Obviously, other people in online relationships would chat passionately until two or three in the middle of the night, and the more they chatted, the more ambiguous they became. Why was it like a stagnant pool of water when it came to him?
"Are you reluctant, brother? Or are you chatting with someone else? (Cute)" Gu Jinzhi snorted.
Lin Xu thought to himself, who would disturb others like you at this late hour.
But he still simply and roughly took a screenshot of his chat interface, showing only Gu Jinzhi and the group chat without being disturbed, saying, see, you are the only one bothering me, and he felt inexplicably resentful.
Gu Jinzhi thought that the other party would not be so quick to delete all the chats, after all, Lin Xu sent a message within a second after he finished speaking.
But he was still a little dissatisfied: "Oh~ I didn't pin it to the top?" No, this is not in line with online dating.
Lin Xu was speechless. In fact, his WeChat has always been deserted. He didn't add many people and didn't like to keep in touch. Thanks to the bombardment of Gu Jinzhi's messages, he could see them every day without pinning them to the top.
But he did it anyway, and Lin Xu pinned it to the top and sent him a screenshot.
Gu Jinzhi was satisfied. It was not bad to have a boyfriend like this. He felt that the other party never argued with him and was always proving it to him. He just ignored him occasionally, but it made him feel safe.
Gu Jinzhi was still thinking about the fact that his transfer was not received. He felt uneasy. It was so difficult to be a generous boyfriend.
And whenever he thought about the clear soup noodles that Amour ate, he felt bad. He couldn't let others talk about love in vain.
So he just used his brain to find a perfect reason.
"Brother, in two days it will be our two-week anniversary. What gift do you want?" It's not money. Even if Amour is aloof, there is no reason to refuse, Gu Jinzhi thought proudly.
Lin Xu's sleepiness disappeared instantly, and he was shocked.
Two-week anniversary? He had never been in a relationship, so he was not sure if such a day really needed to be commemorated?
Hearing about the gift, Lin Xu thought of the original owner's watch, and suddenly felt quite pressured.
How could Zhizhi and Mangmang be his CP? They were obviously his creditors.
Lin Xu was just racking his brains to say no, but Gu Jinzhi kept talking to herself: "I'm looking forward to what gift you will give me~"
Lin Xu was completely unable to say no, as if he refused because he was not willing to give a gift, which was too embarrassing.
So he could only say in a side tone: "Well... Zhi, Zhi, just spend the money on yourself. You are just a college student and you have to spend your family's money. And we are just trying to form a couple in activities. If we don't develop feelings, we can still be friends in the future."
In fact, Lin Xu has always felt that they are not a formal relationship and don't have much feelings for each other. It's just that Zhizhi and Mangmang have always been very clingy, so he has no way to distance himself from them. He can only follow their steps and fulfill his responsibilities as a boyfriend.
Now that he said it out loud, it really feels much better.
Gu Jinzhi kicked the quilt open with his foot and sat up suddenly: "Fuck, he's going to dump me?"
If it were normal, Gu Jinzhi would have started to lose the fight a long time ago, but now he still suppressed his anger and said: "But...but this is my first love, do you think it's so casual?"
Even if it's an online love, it's still his first love! Gu Jinzhi was so angry, it was no different from the pain of being dumped in the real world. Obviously he was very generous, so he should be a good boyfriend.
Lin Xu felt guilty for a moment, even though he had been very tactful, he didn't expect that in such a ridiculous online love game, the other party was serious.
He remembered that Zhizhi and Mangmang were cannon fodder. If they were not serious about feelings, how could they be deceived and become a laughing stock? He didn't want to be like the original main attacker, and he didn't want to hurt Zhizhi and Mangmang.
So in a hurry, he had to make amends: "I mean, although we are just a game couple, I am also willing to cultivate feelings with you seriously."
But afraid that he was not sincere, he deliberately sent a voice message and said in a deep voice: "I will be serious."
Lin Xu was completely fooled by Gu Jinzhi, and he also felt that he was wrong. Since he had already started an online relationship after traveling through time, he could not break up hastily no matter what.
By then, after the other party understands that they are just a fast food romance, or after meeting the right person in real life, they will definitely be able to break up naturally, and no one will be hurt.
Gu Jinzhi was still angry, but after hearing Lin Xu's anxious voice, he felt a little better. It would be embarrassing for him to break up now.
"Then I believe you." Gu Jinzhi said reluctantly.
"If you don't want to give a gift, just don't give it. It doesn't matter if we don't have to commemorate it." Gu Jinzhi said again, pulling the quilt.
But Lin Xu was already embarrassed. Since this day was also very important to Gu Jinzhi, how could he not take it seriously? Instead, he promised sincerely: "I will carefully select the gift, you believe me."
"Oh..." Gu Jinzhi held his face.
In fact, he asked Lin Xu to give it as a cover for exchanging gifts, and he didn't really expect it. After all, the other party was so poor that he couldn't even afford to eat, so what else could he give.
But now that Lin Xu said he would be serious, he actually believed it a little, just like when Lin Xu sent him a voice message just now saying that he would seriously cultivate their relationship.
In fact, Gu Jinzhi calmed down because of that sentence. His anger and grievance were because of being dumped. In fact, it was tacitly known that they were just playing around, and no one took it seriously. How could anyone take online love seriously?
Lin Xu didn't want to play so he started it off, but he was really worried that he would be sad, so he was willing to continue and be serious.
As a stranger who had never met, the other party really cared about him.
Just at this moment of emotion, Gu Jinzhi felt that he was willing to be cheated of more money by him.
The author has something to say:
Lin Xu: I'm really afraid of becoming a scumbag (humble)
Gu Jinzhi: Huh? It seems like I met a good man~
