Second break up

In Xiang Yuan's impression, Gu Cheng was always so calm that he was almost indifferent, and nothing seemed to move him.

Including this breakup.

Xiang Yuan hesitated several times, and finally said, "Gu Cheng, let's forget it."

He thought about whether such an arrogant person like Gu Cheng would be angry if he dumped him for the second time, and he was destined to be disappointed. Gu Cheng took a sip of water and asked him calmly: "Why?"

Suddenly, Xiang Yuan's eyes were a little sore, he took off his glasses, took out a piece of paper, lowered his head to wipe the lenses, and said, "Do you remember what day was yesterday?"

Gu Cheng was a little dazed at first, and then his expression changed slightly.

It was not a particularly important day for both parties, but only for Xiang Yuan, and it was the death day of his parents.It's just that someone said back then that he would accompany him back to his hometown to see them in the future.

How could it be possible to really go to see it every year, Xiang Yuan knew in his heart that he never asked Gu Chengneng to accompany him, he was very busy.In the past few years, Gu Cheng only accompanied him home once at the very beginning. In the next two years, Gu Cheng would call him to apologize, saying that he couldn't get out, and saying hello to him, saying that he would go home early at night.

Later, Gu Cheng forgot about it.Xiang Yuan didn't mention it again, not without feeling sad.

The breakup was not for this reason.

In the past three months, Gu Cheng didn't go home once, and stayed at the company.If he didn't believe in his character, I'm afraid he would be ready to catch a traitor.When he had nothing to do, he wondered on his own whether he just broke up like this, or just made do with a boyfriend he hadn't seen for half a year.

Whether it's tossing coins, tearing flower petals or drawing lots, Xiang Yuan has exhausted all available methods and turned a blind eye to the results.All his stickiness and hesitation were left to Gu Cheng alone.

After returning from the tomb-sweeping yesterday, he sat on the sofa all night, thinking over and over their past, only to realize that it took him ten years to make Gu Chengzhen fall in love with him.Those short sweet days seem to be phantoms, and they disappear with a single wave.

Xiang Yuan let go of his glasses, put them on again, and smiled reservedly and politely: "Gu Cheng, you don't love me, and I don't want to love you anymore, so let's get together before we get tired of seeing each other. let's go."

As if stung by his words, Gu Cheng's eyelids twitched, took a deep look at him, agreed, and then talked about the issue of property division.

Xiang Yuan didn't want to hear this, he lowered his head and carelessly fiddled with the food on the plate with a knife and fork.The food is delicious, but the atmosphere is not right, so the taste is lost.

Soon, Gu Cheng ended his one-sided speech with a few words, took out a card and put it on the table.

Gu Cheng said: "The money in the card is enough for you to live comfortably."

As if being strangled by the neck suddenly, Xiang Yuan took a breath, quickly adjusted, and said without changing expression: "Too much."

Gu Cheng glanced at his watch and was about to leave, "Not much, you put it away." He looked at Xiang Yuan, and told him as usual: "I'm leaving, be careful yourself. From now on, don't forget to go out alone. Bring the keys."

After the words fell, Gu Cheng had already picked up the suit jacket on the back of the chair.

"Teacher Gu." Xiang Yuan lowered his head and did not look at him, "Thank you for taking care of me for so many years."

Gu Cheng paused and left without looking back.

Xiang Yuan picked up the knife and fork. His hands trembled slightly, but he stubbornly divided the items on the dinner plate.

Xiang Yuan looked at it for a while, then smiled and waved to the waiter not far away, "Beauty, pay the bill."

After leaving the restaurant, Xiang Yuan's hands and feet were weak, and he stood blankly on the side of the road with people coming and going. He woke up after being bumped on the shoulder, and walked towards the bus platform.

This bus ride was very difficult. First, I got on the wrong bus. By the time I found out, I had already taken the bus for five stops. Xiang Yuan had no choice but to get off the bus and sit again. After returning to the original place, he waited for an extra half an hour. He just drove in like an old cow, listening to the people talking on the bus, it turned out that the bus broke down, and everyone was crowded in this class.

There was a strong smell of perfume in the crowded carriage. Some people couldn’t bear the motion sickness and threw up when they bowed their heads. Then the screams of women, the noise of children, and the loud voices of old people huddled together, making noise and going far away. Exhausted physically and mentally, he quietly stuck to the pole to make a handsome pie.

Squeezing out of the car, Xiang Yuan was too exhausted to be sad, only full of helplessness.

He never remembers to bring cash when he goes out. He puts a few crumpled pieces of ten or five yuan in his pocket at most. If he puts it together, there is a hundred and two cents. , Xiang Yuan looked all over his body under the waiter's scorching gaze, but it was only 78, which was two cents short, and the kind waiter posted it for him.

There is a lot of money in Gu Cheng's card, but the young master forgot to tell him the password, so it is a precious decoration.

Fortunately, there is a bus card, so I don't have to walk home on foot.

Xiang Yuan unlocked the door and threw himself on the sofa.He closed his eyes and rested for a moment, feeling a little ironic.This "journey home" in the afternoon was too bumpy, and most of the depression and sadness in his heart were scattered.

Xiang Yuan got up and took out a pack of cigarettes from the drawer of the coffee table, lit it skillfully and took a puff.

He hardly smoked in the past few years, and Gu Cheng didn't like the smell of cigarettes, so he quit.Occasionally, one or two sticks are hidden in a conspicuous crevice, and Gu Cheng will eventually find and confiscate them, but Xiang Yuan never tires of it, and there are only a few places where he has hidden them over the years.

Later, I don't know when, the cigarettes were never taken away, and they were left there to accumulate ash.

After choking on the cigarette, Xiang Yuan coughed, and the ash was scattered everywhere.

He put out the cigarette butt and got up to pack his luggage.

So be it.

He bought the house for six years and lived in it for five years. Xiang Yuan has a deep affection for it, but no matter how deep the affection is, he doesn't want to live here and feel hurt.

He simply tidied up the house and started to pack his things.He only took some clothes, electronic products, wallets and documents, packed everything, took another large duffle bag, and threw the rest in it.

Xiang Yuan straightened up and looked at the half-empty house, feeling a little empty in his heart.

He moved his fingers, wanting to smoke.The cigarette had already been taken out, but when he was looking for a lighter, he put it down, found paper, pen and glue, and left a "gift" for Gu Cheng.

He smiled for a long time looking at the electrical appliances covered with paper, then took his luggage and left.

When changing shoes at the door, there was a "clang" sound behind him, followed by the sound of glass breaking.

Xiang Yuan was stunned for a moment and found that the photo frame hanging on the wall had fallen off.

He hesitated for a moment, took off his half-worn shoes, walked over to pick up the photo in the glass shards.In the photo, he still looks very immature, he is hooking Gu Cheng's shoulder and smiling happily, Gu Cheng still has a dead face, the two of them are together in the same shot, like a fool holding a mannequin silly.

This is a photo of their reunion after parting. It was taken at his school, with a pond in the background and a flock of wild ducks.

Rubbing the photo with his fingertips, Xiang Yuan was a little lost.It would not be an exaggeration to say that I was a fool back then, but Gu Cheng likes this type of person.Suddenly, I wanted to ask him if he fell in love with Xiang Yuan, or if it was just the enthusiasm and love that my young self poured into him.

He tore the photo up.

The two people who were sticking together slowly separated with his movements. He thought it was very interesting to see himself with a broken hand, stuffed it in his pocket and dragged the suitcase out.

As soon as he walked out of the community, Xiang Yuan unexpectedly saw Gu Cheng's car driving in.

He dodged to the side, watching the car turn around and disappear, "Goodbye, Mr. Gu."

He and Gu Cheng have known each other for ten years, and even though they were separated, they still met again. There was never a third party to destroy their relationship. Gu Cheng's parents also acquiesced in his existence. They thought they would live like this for the rest of their lives.

In the end it was just wishful thinking.
