overdue lover

When sending Dai Xingruo's mother and daughter out of the hospital, Ji Qinglin heard someone calling his name.

He got up and looked back, and saw his mother Liang Jing hurried out of the hospital building in a white coat.

Liang Jing noticed Dai Xingruo in the car, her eyes lit up.

Then she turned to Ji Qinglin with a half-complaint and half-gratification: "Qinglin, you didn't say anything when you brought your girlfriend to the hospital. Your Auntie Sun said she saw you brought a girl to the hospital and thought she was wrong. Why don't you go to the office and talk to me?" Mama meet?"

Ji Qinglin frowned, "Mom, stop talking—"

"Oh, don't say it, don't say it, the child is too old to be shy!" Liang Jing took a look into the car, and raised her voice when she saw Dai Li.

Ji Qinglin was very upset, he opened his mouth to ask Liang Jing to stop saying such things, but was interrupted by Liang Jing, "Okay, okay... Mom won't disturb you, you have to take good care of your girlfriend."

She shook Ji Qinglin's hand firmly, and whispered in a place where Dai Xingruo couldn't see, "Mom already knows, you still like girls, look how normal you are now!"

After finishing speaking, she smiled politely at Dai Xingruo, turned around and walked towards the inpatient building.

The appearance of Liang Jing made Ji Qinglin very embarrassed, but Dai Li was very calm.

"The two families will meet sooner or later, Xiao Ji, don't be nervous."

Ji Qinglin and Dai Xingruo looked at each other, feeling uneasy in their hearts.

I don't know if it was because of seeing Gu Yinmo and Dai Li, Ji Qinglin tossed and turned on the bed until the early morning.

He couldn't fall asleep, so he turned on the lamp and read a book.

There was a stack of slightly yellowed books next to his bed, which were the "relics" of Gu Yinmo's leaving without saying goodbye. Ji Qinglin put them by the bedside and took them out to read when he missed them.

Now that they have met again, Ji Qinglin still stubbornly reads obscure economic books.

He folded the book upside down on his chest, lying on the bed, his eyes moistened uncontrollably.

If possible, he wanted to tear up these books and throw them in Gu Yinmo's face.

But he couldn't bear it.

He loves Gu Yinmo so much that he can't bear to hurt him even an iota.

He thought Gu Yinmo would do the same.

"Or, forget it..." Ji Qinglin groped the stiff spine of the book with his fingers, and sighed deeply.

Everyone in the world knows that reunion after a broken mirror is just an idealized story, but he is the only one who stubbornly believes in it, which makes him extremely stupid.

Holding the book in his arms, Ji Qinglin's chest was heavy, and he felt extra solid, and fell asleep after a while.

I had insomnia last night and woke up the next day with no energy left.

Ji Qinglin looked at the raging wind and snow outside the window, chose the thickest down jacket, put on a scarf, and wrapped himself up like a rice dumpling.

He is not good at technology, and he is too lazy to drive in snowy weather, so he stands at the bus stop and waits for a taxi.

A black Cayenne stopped in front of him, the window was rolled down, and Gu Yinmo's face appeared in front of Ji Qinglin.

He motioned for Ji Qinglin to get in the car.

Ji Qinglin was thinking about how to refuse, and people around him cast curious prying eyes, so he had no choice but to open the car door and get into the co-pilot.

The car was warm, and the snowflakes on Ji Qinglin's head melted into water droplets, flowing down the hair.

Gu Yinmo suddenly said, "You have a towel at hand."

Ji Qinglin looked to the right, and after getting the towel, he whispered thank you.

The towel is warm yellow, with the fragrance of citrus, which Ji Qinglin likes. While Gu Yinmo was concentrating on driving, he secretly took a deep breath, disdainful of his behavior, and a little satisfied.

"you live in……"

"thanks……"

The two spoke at the same time and paused at the same time, and an awkward atmosphere began to pervade.

Gu Yinmo looked at him with raised eyebrows, "You speak first."

Ji Qinglin's face was flushed by the warm wind, he held the small towel, unconsciously clenched his fingers, and quickly said, "Thank you for the towel."

At the red light ahead, Gu Yinmo stepped on the brakes, and then took a serious look at him, "It's easy to do."

Ji Qinglin nodded, his mind was in a mess.

"I live in Huayuan Building B, how about you?"

Huayuan is the high-rise opposite to the community where Ji Qinglin lives. Ji Qinglin opened his eyes slightly, but he didn't expect that there was only a short street between him and Gu Yinmo.

Ji Qinglin bit her lower lip, "I live in Jingu, opposite Huayuan."

Gu Yinmo watched the signal light start counting down, hooked the corners of his lips, and said meaningfully: "That's really a coincidence."

Ji Qinglin glanced at him quickly and nodded slightly.

Sitting on the co-pilot, Ji Qinglin's body tilted as far away from Gu Yinmo as possible, his head was always tilted out of the window, his eyes wandered, his face was flushed, his fingers curled up, and he looked nervous.

When encountering a red light again, Gu Yinmo reached out and touched his forehead.

Ji Qinglin was so frightened that he almost jumped up, his whole body was like a poor little rabbit cornered by a hungry wolf, his eyes were wide open, looking at the person who touched him in horror.

Gu Yinmo spread out his hands, pretending to be innocent, "I thought you were sick."

Ji Qinglin blinked his wet eyes, touched his forehead with his hands, and said intuitively, "I'm fine, don't worry about Mr. Gu."

The word "Mr. Gu" opened the distance between the two again, and Gu Yinmo's eyes darkened.

Gu Yinmo stopped at the entrance of the pharmacy, returned to the car ten minutes later, and put a bag of medicine on Ji Qinglin's lap.

Gu Yinmo told him, "Remember to eat after dinner."

Ji Qinglin's face was tired, and his lips were slightly peeled. He lowered his head and opened the medicine bag, and quickly tied it up again.

Even though the fever caused dizziness, Ji Qinglin still clearly knew that Gu Yinmo was someone else's boyfriend.

He pushed the medicine to Gu Yinmo, shook his head, "I'm sorry, I can't ask for your things."

"You're someone else's boyfriend now."

"So I can't take your stuff."

Ji Qinglin sniffled, then continued to whisper: "Pei Yang will be unhappy if he finds out, you can't make him unhappy..."

Gu Yinmo didn't start the car, but quietly looked at Ji Qinglin and muttered something.

After a while, he replied slowly: "It's okay, he won't know."

Ji Qinglin subconsciously shook his head, "No."

Gu Yinmo continued to seduce him, the distance between the two was getting closer, Ji Qinglin could almost feel Gu Yinmo's breath.

"What if I say, I stay by your side as a friend?"

"If you and Dai Xing can be friends, why can't I?"

"Ji Qinglin, don't you think this is unfair to me?"

Ji Qinglin's ears were burning hot from Gu Yinmo's words. He frowned and tried to push away the man who was bullying him, but he really didn't have the strength, and his pushing hand seemed to want to refuse and return.

"I want to be friends with you, Ji Qinglin." Gu Yinmo could see Ji Qinglin's retreat and wavering, and continued to press him—even reached out and held his fingers.

BaN "Let's get to know each other again, shall we? Start as friends."

Ji Qinglin's body was extremely uncomfortable, but his heart was even more uncomfortable.

He knew that he couldn't be friends with Gu Yinmo - he couldn't control his thoughts, and he couldn't control the feelings that had been accumulated and suppressed for many years.

He loves Gu Yinmo, but this love was rejected by Gu Yinmo. He can only spend the rest of his life with the short-term happiness that Gu Yinmo bestowed on him.

He wanted to beg Gu Yinmo not to be so cruel, and beg him to let him go.

But Gu Yinmo slowly tightened his hand, as if he meant not to let go unless he agreed.

Ji Qinglin moved his Adam's apple, looked up at the condescending Gu Yinmo with tears in his eyes.

The posture is quite sacrificial.

He opened his mouth with difficulty, and heard himself say, "Okay, let's be friends."

Gu Yinmo laughed, his brows and eyes were gentle and soft, and the warmth in his eyes was like a spring water, making people addicted.

Ji Qinglin traced Gu Yinmo's backlit face with his eyes, thinking sadly that he might be hopeless.

The car restarted and soon arrived at the gate of Ji Qinglin's company.

When getting off the car, Ji Qinglin was carrying the bag from the pharmacy and the small towel in his hand.

The towel was given to him by Gu Yinmo.

After Ji Qinglin refused to get any results, he had no choice but to say that he would wash it and return it to him.

Gu Yinmo smiled and said, "What's the point of being polite among friends?"

Then Gu Yinmo drove away, and Liu Ji Qinglin stood there, staring at the direction of the car in a daze.

After the cold wind blew for a while, Ji Qinglin bowed his head and smiled wryly with a pale face.

He thought he really deserved it, he was so grown up that he couldn't even refuse others.

Thinking of this, Ji Qinglin's eyes fell on the trash can at the street.

【Speak】

Let me scold first: Old Gu, a big scumbag!

Good night in advance!
