Difficult round

Gu Yan sat on the sofa in the hotel lobby, folded his arms and closed his eyes to rest.He looked calm and sober, not drunk, but quite drunk.

Most of the time, it doesn't make much difference whether Gu Yan is drunk or not, but he becomes quiet. People who are not familiar with him think that he is a good drinker who can drink a thousand cups without getting drunk, but he is not.

It's not that Gu Yan is not drunk, nor is it that he doesn't like to talk to people, but because he becomes very dull when he drinks too much, and cannot receive signals from the outside world.

At that time, he was closer to a state of deafness and blindness. What others said or did could not enter his eyes or heart, and he completely closed himself up.

This is a disadvantage for Gu Yan.When I was in school, my friends knew that his condition didn’t matter, but after work, there were a lot of misunderstandings because of it. Either he insisted on drinking so much that his stomach bleeds, or the leaders and partners felt that he was indifferent, arrogant, and didn’t take them seriously. inside.

Shen Qi lost his temper with him a lot because of this, but later Gu Yan learned to behave himself, and controlled the speed by himself, and once he felt that he was going to cross the line, he would pretend to be drunk and talk nonsense, which saved a lot of trouble.

"Gu Yan, let's go home." Shen Xi bent down to help him, but Gu Yan still kept his original posture as if he couldn't hear anything, until Shen Xi grabbed his arm and pulled him up from the sofa, he just Slowly opened his eyes, and glanced at Shen Qi indifferently.

But his feet never moved.

It is impossible to recognize who he is.Shen Qi thought with a wry smile, but still coaxed Gu Yan with a good temper, repeating that he would send him home.

However, Gu Yan was still indifferent, just looked at him with that cold and indifferent look, as if trying to identify who he was.

The two stalemate for a long time, even the hotel doorman ran over to ask Shen Qi if he needed help.

Shen Qi politely declined the other party's kindness, but his heart became more and more sour and uncomfortable.

In the past, he was special and unique in Gu Yan's heart, so even if Gu Yan was in a daze, no one would recognize him, but as soon as he saw him, his eyes would immediately brighten up, and he would run towards him, holding him tightly. Hug into my arms and kiss.

It's as if he is the only one in his world, as long as there is him, Gu Yan's world will be bright and colorful.

But now...

"Gu Yan, let's go home, shall we?" Shen Qi's tone unconsciously carried a crying tone, more like begging than asking for Gu Yan's opinion.

After a long time, Gu Yan moved his fingers, grabbed half of Shen Qi's sleeve, then blinked his eyes slowly and lightly, and called his name half hesitantly and half uncertainly:

"Shen, Xi?"

Tears that had been held back for the whole night finally burst out uncontrollably. Shen Qi wiped the tears on his face indiscriminately, while responding to Gu Yan:

"Well, it's me, let's go home, shall we?"

Gu Yan blinked again, and replied, "Okay."

Gu Yan still recognized him.

Shen Qi didn't know whether he should be happy or sad about this, that inexplicable strange emotion once again occupied his entire chest, and he was crying and laughing at the same time, as embarrassed and ridiculous as a lunatic.

He obviously hadn't touched a drop of alcohol, but he was more like the drunk man than Gu Yan.

Gu Yan, Gu Yan, Gu Yan...

At this moment, his mind is full of this person, they are clearly next to each other, but Shen Qi feels that he has not seen this person for a long, long time, and he misses him very much.

At the beginning of December, Gu Yan took his secretary and two young designers to country A to see a well-known design exhibition in the industry. When he came back, he received a dinner invitation from Tan Xiaolei.

After that time at the club, Gu Yan and Tan Xiaolei had dinner alone two or three times.

Of course, it wasn't Tan Xiaolei's so-called date before the game, but a simple meal and drink with friends, and a casual chat about work and life, which was quite comfortable and comfortable.

But the last time Tan Xiaolei insisted on clarifying the relationship between the two, and confessed to Gu Yan.

It turned out that he and Gu Yan were also college alumni, the first class compared to Gu Yan, who majored in history, and is now a history teacher in a certain college in the city.

He admitted that he secretly fell in love with Gu Yan when he was in college, and this crush began with the song Gu Yan sang in the campus singer competition.

But at that time, Gu Yan had someone in his heart, no matter how good-looking a man or woman was, he couldn't catch his eyes anymore, so he just watched them silently, not daring to approach them easily, let alone cross the line.

One of the things I did the most was to become friends with Gu Yan's friends, sneaking a little information about Gu Yan from their circle of friends every day.

Now that Gu Yan broke up, he finally dared to come up to the stage and express his heart to Gu Yan.

It's impossible not to be shocked, Gu Yan didn't know until then that when he was looking at Shen Qi with full eyes, it turned out that another person was also looking at him like this.

Moreover, Tan Xiaolei has a very beautiful face, and every time he comes out, he dresses in a trendy and avant-garde way. Gu Yan really can't believe that he is actually a history teacher.

How should I put it, Tan Xiaolei is very unhistorical.

Gu Yan is no longer the stunned young man he used to be. He cut out his heart for a person. He naturally knows that love is precious, so he doesn't dare to abandon and dispose of other people's love casually like before. .But it is also not easy to accept.

He thanked Tan Xiaolei, and then said: "I just ended a failed relationship, and I don't want to fall in love for the time being. I'm sorry." It was half truth and half excuse.

Tan Xiaolei nodded to express his understanding, and did not force him to insist on a result, but only said that they could start as friends and let Gu Yan get to know him gradually.

"Let's have dinner together tonight, I'll treat you." Tan Xiaolei said brightly on the phone.

Gu Yan got off the plane at this time, dragged the suitcase in one hand, and held the phone in the other, confirmed the evening schedule with the secretary, and then replied very apologetically:

"I have a partner to meet tonight, let's go another day."

After taking the position of deputy director, similar dinners became more and more frequent, and many of them were still the ones that couldn't be rejected. Gu Yan himself was quite helpless.

But tonight's dinner is actually not a must. The reason why he asked the secretary on the spot was to let Tan Xiaolei hear it on purpose.

As he said to the other party before, he is not ready to accept a new relationship.

Tan Xiaolei seemed very sorry, but he didn't force it.

After hanging up the phone and walking out of the terminal, I realized that it was raining outside. Several people didn't have an umbrella in their luggage. The secretary wanted to buy it, but was stopped by Gu Yan.

It wasn't raining heavily, so they didn't get much drenched by taking a taxi straight home, and they would just go home and take a hot shower, which wasn't so pretentious.

A few people lined up in the waiting area to take a taxi. The rain was caught off guard, and the traffic in the waiting area was twice as high as usual. Gu Yanxu stood leaning on the suitcase, looking down at Tang Yan and the others chattering in the group.

Someone hurriedly passed by him, and accidentally bumped into his suitcase. The suitcase slid forward for a certain distance, and it was about to fall under the platform, but Gu Yan caught it in time.

"Excuse me, are you okay?" The man chased after him and apologized to Gu Yan sincerely.

Gu Yan's hand holding the suitcase paused, then slowly turned around, looking down at the person who bumped into his suitcase.

And that person just raised his head, and the moment his eyes met, Gu Yan saw astonishment and disbelief in the other person's eyes. "Gu, Gu Yan."

There were so many people in the waiting area, the one who bumped into him was Shen Qi.Such a coincidence.Like a bad script.

Gu Yan nodded indifferently, dragged the suitcase aside without saying anything.

"Master Shen Qiqi, what are you doing, let's go!" Someone in front called Shen Qi.

This female voice was no stranger to Gu Yan, he had only heard this voice from Shen Qi's phone a few months ago.

He subconsciously followed the sound and saw a young woman in a light gray trench coat among many hurrying passers-by. She was as beautiful and bright as Gu Yan had imagined at the beginning.

Gu Yan retracted his gaze, turned on the phone screen, and continued to read the chat messages in the group. When he looked up a few minutes later, Shen Qi was nowhere to be seen. He should have left with that woman named Ling.

"Mr. Gu, our car has arrived." The secretary came over to remind him.Gu Yan nodded, put the phone in his pocket, "Let's go."
