It's a bodyguard, not a cowherd

"The last dish is here!"

After putting down the dishes and wiping his hands on the apron, Gu Yan happily greeted Xiang Ruyan: "Team Leader Xiang, quickly try my handicraft!"

Xiang Ruyan picked up the chopsticks with a smile, tasted the fish, his eyes lit up, and he had to say that the taste was really good.

"good to eat."

"That's right! Then eat more! I'll put the apron on." Gu Peng turned around, walked to the kitchen and untied the tie on the back, humming a little tune.

Xiang Ruyan seemed to see Gu Peng's cheerfully wagging tail, smiled even more, and continued to enjoy with chopsticks.

Gu Peng jolted out of the kitchen, pulled away the chair opposite Xiang Ruyan and sat down.

"Captain Xiang, do you really think my food is delicious?"

"Delicious." Xiang Ruyan said with a smile.

"That's good!" Gu Yan said with a sigh of relief.

Xiang Ruyan asked strangely: "Why do you ask such a question? The dishes you cook are really delicious."

Gu Peng rubbed his head and said embarrassedly: "Because there is no one else in my family, and the dishes I cook are only eaten by myself, so..."

Xiang Ruyan smiled and took a piece of meat and put it in the bowl of the valley, and said under his suspicious gaze: "Borrowing flowers to present Buddha."

Gu Yan stared blankly at the meat in the bowl, picked it up, put it in his mouth, chewed it, and said, "It's delicious." His voice was muffled.

Xiang Ruyan smiled lightly, showing some white teeth, and said, "I don't like cooking, but I like cooking."

"Well, that's just right!" Gu Zhen looked up excitedly at Xiang Ruyan and said, "You can come over anytime in the future, and I will definitely be on standby!"

"Okay, I'm looking forward to your other dishes."

"Yeah!" Gu Yan nodded, and greeted Xiang Ruyan to eat, "Hurry up, it's getting cold."

The two chatted while eating, and unknowingly swept away the dishes on the table.

Passing the clean dishes to Xiang Ruyan who was beside him to rinse off the dish soap, Gu Yu asked excitedly, "Is Team Leader Xiang full?"

"If I can't get enough to eat, I won't be able to support myself long ago." Xiang Ruyan looked at the rather tall "mountain of dishes" in his hand and said.

Gu Yan glanced at the plate, and then felt that he had cooked too much, and said embarrassingly: "You didn't make it all the way, did you? No one came to the house, so I can't grasp the amount of food."

"It's a little supportive." Xiang Ruyan nodded.

"Ah - I'm sorry." Gu Yan shrugged his shoulders.

"Who made you look at me with anticipation? I feel sorry if I don't eat all of it." Xiangru Yanfu smiled again and said, "But I haven't eaten for a long time, and I feel like I'm back when I met someone I like. Childhood days when things were eaten stupidly.”

"Sorry..." Gu Peng felt even more guilty.

"I'm quite happy." Xiang Ruyan looked at Gu Peng with a gentle and tolerant smile.

In order to digest, the two decided to go downstairs for a walk together after packing up.

Walking side by side in the quiet and deserted neighborhood, looking at the lights of thousands of houses, Xiang Ruyan said with emotion: "We all went home for dinner."

"En." Gu Peng couldn't think of anything suitable for the situation, so he had no choice but to agree dryly.

Xiang Ruyan didn't intend to ask Gu Hong to respond, and walked forward slowly without asking about the way forward.

Going around one building after another, basically every household has lights on, and sometimes you can see a family sitting around eating through the window.

These scenes reminded Gu Peng of something, he looked at Xiang Ruyan and asked, "By the way, is it okay for Team Leader Xiang not to go home for dinner?"

Xiang Ruyan shook his head and said, "It's okay, I'm also a loner, and now I've saved money on takeout."

"That's it." Gu Peng looked at the elegant Xiang Ruyan and said, "I thought the head of Xiang Ruyan was the young master of which family."

"You are more like me, I still remember Brother He..." Xiang Ruyan, who realized what he said wrong, hastily changed his words, "It's nothing."

"You know my brother!" Gu Peng grabbed Xiang Ruyan's arms excitedly, looked straight at him and asked, "You know him!"

Helpless, Xiang Ruyan nodded lightly and said, "Calm down first, and ask if you have anything to ask."

Instead of letting go of Xiang Ruyan, Gu Peng held on tighter.

"I just want to know if my brother is a traitor!"

Xiang Ruyan dodged his eyes, avoiding Gu Peng's sharp eyes full of eagerness, and said, "Calm down first."

"In the end, is my brother right?" Gu Peng followed Xiang Ruyan's averted eyes.

Xiang Ruyan blinked, sighed, and nodded as if giving up.

Gu Yan slowly let go, and slowly lowered his hands.

Xiang Ruyan frowned worriedly and looked at the statue-like Gu Zhen who bowed his head and said nothing, just looked but didn't speak.

After a long time, Gu Peng spoke again——

"Who is it? Who is my brother's master!"

Like an angry little beast.

"Guzi." Xiang Ruyan knelt down in front of Gu Yu, looked at his eyes glistening with tears, and said softly, "The past is over, don't delve into it."

"Is it possible?" Gu Peng asked Xiang Ruyan with red eyes, "Do you think it's possible? Brother He is my only relative, and I have depended on him since we were young. Do you think it is possible for me to let him go?"

"Grain..."

"Moreover, and he left so unclearly..." Gu Yan supported Xiang Ruyan's shoulders and cried, "He promised me that as long as I got the first place in the exam, he would take me to the amusement park. Shan went to look for him, but saw his dead body!"

Xiang Ruyan gently embraced the back of Gu Peng's head, buried his face into his shoulder, and said, "I tell you it's okay, but you have to promise me, don't mess around."

"Hmm..." Gu Yan nodded sullenly.

"PTY." Xiang Ruyan said, "It's a PTY company in country M."

"Thank you, Team Leader Xiang." Gu Peng sniffed hard, raised his head, and looked at Xiang Ruyan with red eyes.

"It's okay." Xiang Ruyan reached out to rub Gu Peng's hair, put his arm around his shoulder and said, "Let's go, let's go home."

"Well, go home." Gu Peng nodded.

Back at Gu Yu's house, Xiang Ruyan worriedly stayed with him until nine o'clock in the evening, and finally persuaded Gu Yu to stay and leave.

Driving on the road to the north, from the hustle and bustle to the tranquility, Gu Wei looked at the road ahead and was silent all the way.

"I am back."

Xiang Ruyan reached out to turn on the light in the living room, looked at the dark kitchen, sighed, and walked into the kitchen resignedly.

Two simple stir-fried vegetables are a bowl of rice, Xiang Ruyan carried them to the guest room.

"咚咚-"

"I'm in."

Pushing the door open and entering, I saw the back of the man leaning over his desk.

"Let's eat first."

Putting the tray on the bedside table, Xiang Ruyan walked towards the man.

"What are you writing?" Xiang Ruyan looked at himself without asking.

The man didn't cover up either, instead he stood up generously so that Xiang Ruyan could look at him.

"The study of human nature?" Xiang Ruyan looked at the manuscript with numerous revisions, and asked strangely, "How do you study such a big subject? Don't tell me that you have studied psychology for so long, and you can't even choose a topic."

The man took off his eyes and said while sorting out the manuscript, "This is pretty good."

"Okay." Xiang Ruyan shrugged, walked to the bedside table, and said indifferently, "Happy as you want."

"What about you?"

"What?" Xiang Ruyan picked up the tray and looked at the man suspiciously.

"What subject are you researching now." The man made room for food on the desk.

Xiang Ruyan put down the food and said, "I haven't done research for a long time, and now I'm concentrating on my work."

"Really?" The man picked up the rice and asked back.

Xiang Ruyan didn't answer, just turned around and sat on the bed, picked up the psychology book on the bed and read it.

Putting down the rice bowl with no grains left, the man took the paper towel handed over by Xiang Ruyan to wipe his mouth.

"Are you full?"

"Ah."

Xiang Ruyan cleaned up the empty bowls and chopsticks and said, "Remember to eat on time next time."

"I'm not good at ordering takeaway," the man said.

"Then make it yourself, there are vegetables in the refrigerator." Xiang Ruyan put the tray back on the bedside table.

"No time to."

"Don't make excuses for your laziness." Xiang Ruyan ruthlessly dismantled the man, and said helplessly, "You'd better allocate a little brain to life skills, and don't patronize research."

"Ok."

"Don't be perfunctory..."

"Where did you go tonight, and you won't come back to make dinner." The man used a straightforward way to change the subject.

Xiang Ruyan frowned, and opened his mouth to talk about men, but in the end he sighed and said: "I went to the house of a junior in the company, it's not easy for him to be alone."

"Really?" The man glanced at Xiang Ruyan casually, and said, looking at Xiang Ruyan who seemed worried, "Anyway, he's not here, so you don't have to."

Xiang Ruyan smiled softly and helplessly, and asked, "What's wrong with me?"

The man turned his eyes away because of Xiang Ruyan's smile, and said in a voice like Wubo Gujing, "It's so hypocritical."

Xiang Ruyan's smile froze, and then the corners of his mouth slowly collapsed.

"Ok."

The man took out the manuscript again and said, "He doesn't know."

Xiang Ruyan curled his lips into a self-deprecating smile and said, "Do you think anyone will know except you."

"Don't they think your face is 'thick'?" The man asked while pressing the ballpoint pen back and forth.

"I don't even think the mask is heavy, how could they notice it?" Xiang Ruyan smiled, his eyes were no longer gentle, but full of pride.

"is it?"

Xiang Ruyan sat back on the desk, looked down at the man and said, "Are you going to use 'really' as your mantra?"

The man met Xiang Ruyan's eyes wordlessly for a while, then bowed his head and said, "Don't judge others by yourself, what you see may not be the truth, you also learn psychology, I don't need to teach you these things."

Xiang Ruyan looked at the ground silently, then, using his hands hard, changed to sitting on the table and said: "I know, to be precise, that's not my mask, 'he' has become me, it's my mask." Part of it."

"Really?" The man raised his eyebrows.

"Yeah." Xiang Ruyan looked up at the ceiling and said, "I just choose to show myself, isn't this normal, isn't it the same for everyone - show yourself well, don't Good to hide or even obliterate."

"That's why I want to study this topic." The man looked at the manuscript and said with a sigh.

Xiang Ruyan turned around, looked down at the manuscript and asked, "Then how is your research going?"

"It's a small gain."

"Really?" Xiang Ruyan imitated the tone of a man and asked back, "But, do you plan to stay with me for the rest of your life? You can't complete your research just by talking about it on paper."

"I'll find a chance to leave." The man put on his glasses and continued, "As long as the fifth fragment appears, I won't have to hide anymore."

"That's right." Xiang Ruyan nodded, then smiled and said, "But how did your father train you? It's because he trained a psychologist in the weapon research and development family."

"Who knows?" the man said.

Seeing that the man was engaged in research again, Xiang Ruyan didn't speak anymore, but sat back on the bed and continued to read.

The moment the man left Xiang Ruyan, the pen in his hand stopped——

Who knows which is more harmful, weapon attack or psychological attack?

The author has something to say:

I don’t know if anyone sees the strangeness of Xiang Ruyan, anyway, I tried my best to write in a strange direction, um… I should have tried my best
