Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

After the party, Gu Cheng's life returned to calm.

Mainly because since he made it clear to James, he really followed the request and stopped disturbing his life.

This made Gu Cheng very happy, and at the same time he considered this relationship more seriously.

To be honest, except for the feeling, James almost perfectly met his requirements for a boyfriend.

Although his personality is a bit squeamish and... green tea, he is good-looking, and although his family background is not great, it is also a first-class powerful family.

More importantly, he will assess the situation.

This is also what Gu Cheng values ​​most in his partner.

James is obviously the best among them.

For important matters, Mr. Gu Cheng was used to writing on paper, so when he was writing down messages about James, his pen suddenly turned and he unknowingly wrote the words "Pei Mingxu" on the paper. .

However, the moment he finished writing the last word, he suddenly became aware of his unconscious movements. In desperation, he drew a long black line at the end.

With a snap, the pen fell down. Gu Cheng's right hand was shaking uncontrollably. He hurriedly grabbed his wrist to control the sudden loss of control.

After a long time, he calmed down the turmoil in his heart, sighed deeply, and said to himself: "Gu Cheng, wake up, that person is not something you can imagine."

In the quiet bedroom at night, the floating blue star night light was shining dimly, illuminating the solemnity on his face clearly.

For the first time, his back was slightly bent, and he seemed to be a little rickety. He stared at the slender and straight words Pei Mingxu on the page, but there was a hint of sharpness hidden in them. Finally, he closed his eyes for a long time.

When he opened his eyes again, his eyes were as clear as a sea of ​​stars.

He grasped the pen again in a very natural movement, and then lightly crossed out the name, as if he wanted to completely cross it out from his heart.

After a while, the name was finally blacked out, and Gu Cheng also focused his attention on the name James Lawrence again.

Perhaps he is more suitable to be loved than to love others.

Otherwise, why would every crush end in vain?

Gu Cheng thought that he and James should try hard.

After all, with his personality, he is more suitable for lasting love than falling in love at first sight.

He held the pen and thought for a long time, and his elbows were numb until Gu Chengcai finally wrote a line.

'Life needs to be tried'

This night, Gu Cheng fell into a dream again.

This time, his figure is more solid and the picture changes faster.

He met his teacher from his previous life again, the strange old man who lived in a wooden house, but the dark cloud between his brows had completely disappeared.

He still didn't like to close the windows, and the cold wind and rain blew into his study, making the yellowed ancient books rattle.

But he was engrossed in staring at the "Book of Changes" which was as thick as a brick. He was startled and obsessed with the world in the book and couldn't extricate himself.

At this moment, Gu Cheng only felt his mind suddenly sinking. When he felt it again, he found that he had replaced the stubborn and frail young man in his memory, standing in front of Teacher Vick.

"Hey, Xiao Cheng, when did you come? I didn't even notice."

Teacher Vic looked up in surprise, then quickly stood up, noticed his wet hair, and half-blamed and half-worried asked him to go sit down in the greenhouse in the cubicle.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Gu Cheng felt that this greenhouse was somewhat similar to the one in his apartment.

But before he could think about it, a soft white towel covered his head, blocking his sight and making his other senses more sensitive.

Strong hands wiped his head carefully, the back of his neck, his ears, and even forcibly lifted his chin to clean up the water drops that fell to the tip of his chin.

In the greenhouse, even the air is warm, but it is not the kind of warmth that makes the skin feel dry, but the warmth that has a hint of moisture, but does not appear sticky and dull.

After a while, Gu Cheng felt comfortable all over, and even the soul that had just sunk into his body felt warm.

The pure white towel was taken away, and Teacher Vic turned around and went out. Soon after, he walked in carrying the heavy book that could be used to hit people, and sat down opposite him.

It’s simply a typical example of someone who can’t put the book down.

He carefully turned the page to the page he had just studied, then raised his head and asked Gu Cheng warmly about the purpose of coming here.

Gu Cheng wanted to speak as he remembered, but he swallowed the words back before he left his mouth.

The dream world he entered this time seemed to have changed a lot.

For example, although the teacher's wooden house still looks ordinary and decayed on the outside, it has obviously been renovated on the inside.

Even the iron windows, which had a deep memory in the past and would creak at the slightest movement, did not make any unsustainable sound.

There is also an obvious change in the teacher's mental outlook. Not only is his hair carefully maintained, but even the strand of white hair that usually sticks up is neatly restrained by hairspray, without any tendency to straighten his waist.

The most important thing is the "Book of Changes". His teacher mainly studies the literature of the cultural contact period. When did he start studying the literature of more ancient periods?

Also, the teacher is obviously more interested in science and technology, and now he is really developing into the magic stick, which doesn't look right.

If he were to explain based on the reasons in his memory, he might be betrayed on the spot.

Then, perhaps he suddenly realized that he was in a dream, and then woke up suddenly.

In this way, the next time I dream about this memory, I don’t know how many years will it be.

He was reluctant to leave...

Suddenly, he suddenly realized that he seemed to have realized that he was dreaming just now.

Then why didn't you wake up?

Gu Cheng suddenly thought deeply, but Teacher Vic's soft call came to his ears.

"Xiao Cheng, Xiao Cheng!"

Gu Cheng recovered from his daze and met his eyes.

A gentle smile appeared on Vic's old face: "You kid, how come you can be in a daze anytime and anywhere?"

As he spoke, he frowned again, stretched out his hand to touch his forehead, and said to himself, "Isn't it because you got a fever from being soaked in the shower?"

Gu Cheng was touched by the slightly cold back of his hand, and his thoughts suddenly came back, and he explained: "Teacher, I didn't..."

But before he finished speaking, Teacher Vic dragged his old body and ran towards the utility room at a speed that was not suitable for an old man.

In the living room, he could vaguely hear the clanging noises coming from the utility room, like a construction site.

Gu Cheng was speechless, pursed his lips and smiled faintly.

Teacher Vic is so lively, like an old child who thinks of everything.

Then, he pushed open the door with slight panting, and slowly walked up to him holding a platinum ring-shaped therapeutic device as if to take credit.

As he approached, Gu Cheng's pupils became wider and wider.

Isn't this the latest technology just developed by teachers?

After his birthday, the teachers gave him the results of this stage.

Why did he appear in his dream today, being held up by Teacher Vic, whom he had not seen for all these years?

This scene is so weird no matter how you look at it.

"drop!"

The cold therapeutic instrument was tied to his forehead, and when he looked up, he could see the smooth golden edges.

It’s confirmed, it’s the sample that was just produced.

Teacher Vic struggled for a while, and after confirming that he was really not sick, he continued to talk to him.

"Teacher, I have nothing important to do here. I just want to see you."

Since I can't think of a suitable explanation, I just don't think about it.

Wouldn't it be more in line with his truest thoughts to simply visit the old man?

After saying that, Teacher Vic said with emotion: "Good boy, such a good boy. He is so busy at work and he doesn't forget to come visit me, an old man."

Gu Cheng no longer wants to care about these differences in time and events.

He said a few more heart-warming words, making Teacher Vic laugh.

But after laughing, Teacher Vic suddenly changed the subject and said with a serious expression: "Child, I know you must have encountered something that is distressing you now. There is no need to be restrained or afraid. You can speak freely in front of me."

I don't know if it was his misunderstanding, but Gu Cheng felt that the teacher knew that he was not the same person he once was.

"Old man, although I have accomplished nothing, my life experience can still be of use to me."

He looked at Gu Cheng encouragingly: "Child, tell me?"

At this time, the thunderstorm outside the window suddenly stopped.

The blue sky, white clouds and stars all over the sky are all framed in the small window on the opposite side.

There was silence all around, everyone seemed to be waiting for his answer.

Gu Cheng took a deep breath, opened and closed his lips slightly, and after several attempts, he finally uttered a sentence: "I like someone."
