Going up to the platform on the sixth floor, Tan Man couldn't help asking: "What's wrong with you?"

"Who was that just now?"

"Aunt Lan? She is my landlord, Zhang Jiakai's mother." Tan Man was a little surprised, "What's wrong with you, do you know her?"

Gu Mochen's back stiffened, and he was silent for a few seconds, but he returned to normal in an instant, and the corner of his mouth was slightly disdainful: "How could I know you?" After speaking, he pointed his chin at the iron door, "Open the door."

Tan Man glanced at him suspiciously, yes, how could they know each other, so she thought maybe she was being sensitive, so she broke the topic.

After entering the door, Tan Man took off his coat and walked straight to the room: "Sit on the sofa for a while."

Gu Mochen lowered his head and saw a pair of brand new men's slippers beside the shoe cabinet, and his mood immediately improved. After putting them on, he couldn't help but take a second look, and hers seemed to be a couple's style.

Sitting on the sofa, one could see a corner of the room from this angle. Tan Man seemed to be searching for something, looking at it, Gu Mochen couldn't help but think of the scene downstairs again.

This time, he was absolutely sure that this woman did not recognize him at all. Although he did not have a small Peking University when she left, after all, he was connected with blood and flesh. Did she have telepathy, but she didn't even have a strange look in her eyes, she completely regarded him as a stranger.

Gu Mochen took a deep breath, closed his eyes and sank into the sofa,

No matter how much he pretended not to care, he couldn't lie to himself,
At this moment, he was very lost.

……

Tan Man found the men's shirt from the closet. The word 'Man' was faintly visible on the inside of the collar. She thought she couldn't give it away, but one day she would see it again, and she couldn't help feeling shy.

Hearing her footsteps, Gu Mochen opened his eyes, and smiled at her nonchalantly: "What are you preparing for me?"

Tan Man pursed her lips, and handed him the bag: "It's a shirt. I bought it according to the brand and preference you are used to."

Gu Mochen watched her approaching him step by step, stretched out his hand and pulled her into his arms, hugging her extremely hard.

Tan Man fell into his arms all of a sudden, and she was startled.

She was a little confused, but she clearly felt that this hug was a little different from usual. He rarely hugged her with such force and desire, not even when they were lying on the bed together last night.

"what happened?"

Gu Mochen buried his head between her necks, exhaled softly, and hugged her arms tightly again.

"Let me hold you for a while."

"You're weird." Tan Man rested her chin on his shoulder and wrapped her arms around his back.

"It's strange to hug you?" His voice was very soft, his tone was indifferent, but it seemed that he deliberately avoided some things.

"no……"

I can't tell the truth, so I just hold it like this.

After a while, he let go of his hand, took out the shirt from the bag, looked it over seriously, and chuckled, "I'll wear it on Monday."

"No!" She shyly took the shirt from him, "You'd better not wear it on weekdays."

"why?"

Tan Man pursed her lips, lowered her head and said, "I embroidered something on the collar, and people will be laughed at if they see it."

It was only then that Gu Mochen realized what was special about this shirt, and laughed out loud: "Then I should wear it even more."

"..."

Gu Mochen came out of Tan Man's house, sat in the car for a while, took out his mobile phone, opened the mailbox, and scrolled down in the inbox for a long time to find the unread email that had been lying there for several months .

The sender was Zhang Hongtai, the general manager of Shanghai Hongtai Investigation Company. He received this email not long after meeting Xue Yuelan for the first time. He obviously sent someone to investigate, but he didn't have the courage to open it later.

Gu Mochen clicked on the email. Zhang Hongtai was indeed very professional. Her current situation, people around her, and daily activities were all clearly and detailedly recorded in the Word document.

He browsed quickly, and the email was pulled down to the end. It was her current husband and a photo of her son.

Looking at Zhang Jiakai's photo on the screen, Gu Mochen couldn't help laughing at himself,
It turned out that I not only have a half-brother, but also a half-brother, what an ironic and ridiculous life.

……

Tan Man didn't know that there was such a secret hidden in Gu Mochen, and her life was as usual.

This morning when I went to work, I accidentally saw Zhang Jiakai outside the gate of the community. It seemed that he was waiting for someone.

"Hey!" She patted him on the back from behind.

The other party was not frightened, turned around, and showed a smirk like Zhang Jiakai: "Morning, little one."

"Wait someone?"

"Yes, waiting for you." After finishing speaking, he took out a card from the back pocket of his jeans and handed it to her, "Must come!"

Tan Man was confused, took the card and opened it, it turned out to be an invitation letter.

"Sunlight Studio?" She raised her head, her eyes wide open in disbelief, "Have you opened a studio?"

Zhang Jiakai raised his eyebrows proudly: "That's right, at 06:30 tonight, in the studio, there was an opening party, and I called some friends to celebrate." After a pause, he looked at her seriously, " Come back."

Tan Man patted him on the shoulder cheerfully: "It must be, it's rare that you want to start a career, so you have to support it anyway."

"Hey, let me state in advance that I don't want congratulatory gifts if they are not big ones!"

"Don't worry, I won't give away the big ones!" Tan Man smirked, "I won't tell you anymore, I'm going to be late for work."

When she got off work, Tan Man dialed a number for Gu Mochen, but the other party pressed it down, and quickly replied a WeChat message: "I have something to do, I will call you later." Tan Man simply put away the phone, waiting for him to come back when he is free. Reported, walked out of the school gate, and hailed a taxi to go to Zhang Jiakai's studio.

Zhang Jiakai's photography studio is located in the Creative Park. Tan Man found it according to the address. From a distance, he saw the facade of the studio full of flower baskets. The creative park is full of art industries, and rows of studios or small companies are decorated. Zhang Jiakai's personality is brilliant, I thought Zhang Jiakai was just making a fuss, but I didn't expect that looking at the facade, he looks decent.

There is a water sign with opening discounts at the entrance of the studio. The lively music in the studio can be heard even outside the door. A fashionable girl at the front desk is enthusiastically attracting passers-by. When she sees Tan Man coming in, she immediately greets her: "Hi, beauty, Our studio opens today, come in and have fun, if you think the photographer’s style is suitable, take a set of photos, today’s super discount..."

Before she finished selling, Zhang Jiakai came out from the inside, and when he saw Tan Man coming, he immediately smiled: "Ma Li, this is my own, go back and stand by the door."

The girl named Ma Li pursed her lips and said coquettishly, "Brother Kai, I'm tired, and I don't feel sorry for her at all."

Tan Man suppressed a smile, Zhang Jiakai said perfunctorily, "Okay, please move a chair to sit in the head office." After speaking, he pulled Tan Man inside.

"Not bad, I thought you were just renting a small basement for fun, does Uncle Zhang know about this?"

Zhang Jiakai took her on a tour and blew it up: "This is the result of my hard work for more than half a year. He let me experience life in his taxi company. It is because of my outstanding performance that he allowed me to do this."

"Have you invested a lot of money?" Tan Man asked, "Do you have a source of customers?"

"Didn't I always help a magazine to shoot loose films before? I signed a fixed contract a while ago, so I have a source of customers. I wrote a business plan to Lao Zhang and asked him to borrow some early investment. He saw that He thought it was a joke, so he fired me from his taxi company." Zhang Jiakai looked smug.

"I really didn't expect that you did a lot of things in a few months. No wonder you lost a lot of weight."

"I'll be even busier in the future. Some of the small models that the magazine has co-operated with are now looking for me."

"Busy is busy, you have to take care of your body, you're so skinny, it's so ugly." Tan Man couldn't help but feel disgusted.

"Understood, just like my mother, you go shopping by yourself first, and I have friends over there. If you get tired, go to my office and sit, and I will call you when I lie down in a while." After Zhang Jiakai finished speaking, he was dragged away again. up.

Tan Man wandered around and carefully read every photo on the wall before entering his office.

A door cuts off the sound of music from outside, and the decoration of the office is also very simple and stylish. Each of the few furnishings is an exaggerated artwork that she can't appreciate. It is estimated that this is the special aesthetic of the so-called artist.

Tan Man sat unceremoniously on the boss's chair, took out her mobile phone and sent Gu Mochen a WeChat message, asking him if it was over, but after a while, she didn't reply, so she could only continue playing with her mobile phone boredly.

At this time, the office door was suddenly opened, and a handsome guy broke in. The other party didn't expect that there was someone inside, and the two looked at each other for a moment.

"Hi," he greeted, "Brother Kai's girlfriend?"

Tan Man shook her head calmly: "Friend!"

"Oh, I'll come in and get something." After speaking, the other party pointed to the drawer in front of her, and Tan Man immediately gave way to him, stood up and stood aside.

The handsome guy moved in a hurry. He dragged open the top drawer and turned it for a while, then closed it again, pulled out the next drawer, flipped through it, sighed impatiently, and dragged the bottom drawer open.

"Damn, so it's here!" The handsome guy took out a bookkeeping book, immediately smiled, raised his head and shook his head at Tan Man, "Excuse me."

She smiled, and subconsciously glanced at the drawer at her feet, but with just one glance, a half-revealed photo inside attracted her full attention.

There was no time to pay attention to when the other party left. Tan Man subconsciously blocked the drawer that was about to close with her foot. She took out the photo from under the stack of books, but she took the next few photos with her. out.

Seeing these photos, she was stunned.

After a quick look, she firmly believed that there was a bigger secret hidden underneath, so she looked up at the closed office door, and reached out to pull out a photo album about A4 size.

As expected, there are photos of her posted inside, some in the distance, some in close-up, some by the gate of the community, some at the gate of the school, some with her frowning, and some with her hair flying...

The angles of each picture are just right, and the colors are warm and beautiful. At first glance, I thought it was a LOMO postcard sold in a store.

It's just that none of these photos are facing the camera.

Tan Man's heart was extremely confused, flipping through the photo album quickly, with all kinds of flavors, she didn't know what these meant,
It is Zhang Jiakai's special hobby,
Or is it his special affection for him?
Either way, she was overwhelmed.
