Acknowledge

After work in the morning, Gu Xi took Xiao Sa home. At first, he wanted Gu Xiao to take him away first, but what can a child who has just entered kindergarten know? go.Judging from Gu Xiao's previous experience in dealing with Gu Le, he can definitely do this kind of thing.

When he opened the door, he could smell the strong aroma of vegetables, including his favorite sweet and sour pork ribs, and Gu Xiao's favorite spicy chicken wings.

"Wow, it smells so good!" Xiao Sa shouted in amazement, and ran to the kitchen following the smell, "Uncle Gu, your house suddenly smells so good!"

After hanging the coat on the hook, Gu Xi also walked in, and happened to meet one big and one small staring at each other.

"Child, I haven't asked you yet, who are you?" Gu Xiao asked.

"I'm Sasa, dear brother, are you cooking? It smells so good!" The child had big eyes, and looked at the spoon in Gu Xiao's hand with great interest.

"Stupid? Sasa? Kid, don't call me brother, it's so ugly," but his surname is also Gu, "Uncle Gu Xiao."

"Brother, is your surname Gu?"

Gu Xi touched his little head, "That's right, just like Sasha and Dad, they both have the surname Xiao."

"Is this your colleague's child?" Gu Xiao asked while filling up the dishes.

"Sasha, go out of the living room to watch cartoons first, okay?" Gu Xi pushed Xiao Sa away, Xiao Sa was also obedient, and jumped out, Gu Xi shouted again: "Dinner is almost ready, don't eat too many snacks oh!"

"Know it!"

After Xiao Sa went out, Gu Xicai slowly said to Gu Xiao, "His name is Xiao Sa, Ji Jiuxia..."

Before he finished speaking, Gu Xiao frowned unhappily, "Why does it have something to do with him again?"

"Listen to me," Gu Xi said helplessly, "Ji Jiuxia is now with Xiao Xun. He is Xiao Xun's adopted child. When Xiao Xun picked him up, he was still a baby who couldn't walk. Xiao Xun is his father. At that time, Xiao Xun was only in his junior year, and he worked very hard to hide him secretly in the dormitory. Later, when Xiao Xun graduated, he was too busy to take care of him, so the little guy came to live with me for a while."

"He won't be here all these days, right?" Gu Xiao suddenly realized something.

Seeing his face that looked like a bitter melon, Gu Xi was a little amused, "You guessed it right."

"Why did the one surnamed Ji go?" Gu Xiao pursed his lips, the boss is still so childish by himself.

"He..." These reasons don't seem to be considered reasons for Gu Xiao... "Ji Jiuxia and Xiao Xun are quite busy recently."

Gu Xiao narrowed his eyes and looked at Gu Xi incredulously, "Are you busy talking about love?"

Gu Xi's eyes fluttered, "I'll go out to accompany Sasa, you should cook first."

"Gu Xi." Gu Xiao grabbed the person who wanted to escape and pulled him into his arms, biting his ear and muttering: "Don't think too long."

Gu Xi broke away from him, ran out of the kitchen quickly without answering.

After more than five years of separation, Gu Xiao's culinary skills have improved. It seems that he is particularly talented in this area. He and Zhang Hui didn't have long to learn before he was able to become a teacher.Although he lived by himself for so many years, Gu Xi thought that the food he made could be eaten, but compared with Gu Xiao, it was really a world of difference.

Xiao Sa ate very happily, he almost ate most of the food on the table with his small mouth, Gu Xi was afraid that he would be overwhelmed, so he refused to let him eat later.The little guy seems to have the same taste as Gu Xiao, he loves spicy chicken wings.

During his afternoon nap, Xiao Sa consciously climbed onto Gu Xi's bed, as if it was already a common occurrence.Gu Xiao also climbed up, feeling a bit annoyed that this little thing is more conscious than him, thinking that this little thing hadn't been born when he got into Gu Xi's bed every day!

"Uncle Gu Xiao, this is Uncle Gu's bed, the guest room is over there," Xiao Sa pointed to the next room, "Don't you know the way, or I'll take you there." After finishing speaking, he gestured to get out of bed.

Gu Xi walked to the bed and looked at Xiao Sa's serious expression with amused expression. He didn't expect Gu Xiao to sleep in the guest room, but he didn't expect the little thing to say that, which made Gu Xiao's expression very bright.

"Come, uncle, I'll take you there." Xiao Sa got off the bed, put on his little slippers, and stretched out his hand to Gu Xiao.

Gu Xiao supported his body on his elbows, "Little thing, do you know who you are talking to?"

"Gu Xiao," Gu Xi called to stop him, afraid that he would say something inappropriate for children, "Is it childish?"

Someone on the bed didn't take it seriously, took off his coat and sweater, and wanted to get under the covers, Gu Xi threw a pair of pajama pants to him, "Change your pants."

"Silly, you go to the guest room to sleep." After changing his pants, Gu Xiao pushed Xiao Sa who crawled back into bed.

"Why?" Xiao Sa hugged his pillow tightly, this is his place!

Gu Xi glared at Gu Xiao, and then helped Xiao Zao take off his coat, "Sasha, you sleep with Uncle Gu Xiao, you can't go to work with me in the afternoon, and you can't disturb uncle to sleep when you wake up, you understand?"

Gu Xiao felt very comfortable hearing these words, look, how much his Xiaoxi loves him!

The child nodded obediently, "I'll watch cartoons by myself when I get up, and keep the voice very low."

Gu Xi smiled gratifiedly, told him to lie down, helped him cover the quilt, and then walked away.

"Aren't you going to sleep?" Gu Xiao called out to him in surprise.

Gu Xi turned around, "Go to sleep, I will go to work after a short rest."

Gu Xiao frowned, a little displeased, "Gu Xi?"

"It's the end of the year, and there are a lot of things to do, so go to sleep." Gu Xi explained with a pretentious cover-up.

"Come and sleep." Gu Xiao's face darkened.

Gu Xi hesitated, originally he didn't want to be too obvious, but he still made such a situation, as if the depression five years ago had returned between the two of them.

Finally Gu Xiao sighed, got out of bed and approached him, he took a step back vigilantly, but still stood still.

"I'm jet-lagged and sleepy right now, just lie down together for a while, okay?"

Looking helplessly at Gu Xiao helping him take off his coat, and when he was about to take off his sweater, Gu Xi twisted and said, "I'll do it myself."

It seems like a century has passed since the last time I lay on the same bed with Gu Xiao, this feeling is very warm, very reassuring, and very lustful.

"...Gu Xiao, Sasa Zazai, sleep well." Gu Xi pushed Gu Xiao's hand.

"He doesn't understand."

"...he will understand in the future." Gu Xi struggled.

"He can't see it."

"But……"

"……sleepy."

In the afternoon, when Gu Xi came back from get off work, Xiao Sa quietly watched TV in the living room and ate some snacks. When he saw him come back, he ran over and told him quietly that Uncle Gu Xiao was still sleeping, so lazy.

Gu Xi tapped his head to make him eat less snacks.

Slowly walking into the room, Gu Xiao was still in a deep sleep, maybe he was exhausted due to the time difference from the journey, and he still went to find him and cook for them when he came back.Slowly exiting the room again, Gu Xi pondered whether to cook by himself or go out to eat, it is unrealistic to wait for Gu Xiao to wake up to cook, or... go home to eat?But what if Gu Xiao doesn't want to do it?If Gu Xiao really wants to stay tonight...

Gu Xi looked at Xiao Sa suddenly, Xiao Sa raised his head strangely, and asked him what he was doing with his eyes, but he didn't speak, but just smiled in satisfaction, and then raised his hand to pat Xiao Sa's head.Xiao Sa was puzzled, and turned back to watch TV.

As night fell, thousands of lights were already lit outside the window. Gu Xi and Xiao Sa ordered takeaway, and when they were halfway through eating, Gu Xiao walked out with sleepy eyes.

"Why didn't you wake me up?" Gu Xiao asked.

"It's fine anyway, let's have dinner." Gu Xi placed the bowls and chopsticks in front of Gu Xiao.

"Uncle Gu Xiao, the takeaway food is not as good as your cooking!" Xiao Sa said while chewing on the chicken legs.

"My culinary skills are comparable to first-class chefs. Where can ordinary people get it? It's only like you at such a young age." Gu Xiao said proudly.

When Gu Xi and the child were full, they were watching TV, and Gu Xi accompanied the child to be excited by those childish animation scenes.Gu Xiao, who was still eating, smiled, and took out his mobile phone to eat and play, and occasionally he could hear him uttering a sentence or two in fluent English. Only then did Gu Xi realize that Gu Xiao was only coming back for the New Year holiday , his work and social circle are in the United States, he will leave here sooner or later.

"Gu Xiao, let's go home later, my parents miss you every day..." Gu Xi tried to ask.

"Didn't you say you won't go back?" Gu Xiao looked at him, feeling a little emotional about his proposal.

Gu Xi lowered his eyes, "I still think... I should go home first."

"Are you so afraid of being alone with me?" Gu Xiao couldn't bear it, and asked him in a slightly aggressive tone.

Five years ago and now, hiding with a cold face and hiding with a smile are both hiding, Gu Xi has always been stubborn.

After being asked for a moment, Gu Xi stopped talking, and the child seemed to feel that the atmosphere was a bit strange. He tugged on Gu Xi's sleeve with his little hand, and asked curiously, "Uncle Gu, what's wrong with you?"

Gu Xiao glared at the child with a very bad expression, so frightened that the child quickly shrank to Gu Xi's side, hugged Gu Xi's arm to hide, and secretly looked at Gu Xiao in fear.

After hugging the child beside him, Gu Xi smiled gently at him, "Sasa, it's okay, we're talking about the little monsters in cartoons being bad."

The atmosphere eased a bit, Gu Xiao continued to eat angrily, Gu Xi didn't continue this topic, and silently looked at Xiao Sa who was unaffected and happily watching TV.

After hastily swallowing a few mouthfuls of food, Gu Xiao put down his chopsticks and went back to his room.Gu Xi looked at the back of that familiar figure that made him feel distressed, pinched his fingers in frustration, not knowing what to do.Sasha was chirping in his ear, but he didn't hear anything.

Should I apologize?How do you say?Five years has indeed worn away a lot of his persistence, but it doesn't mean that he can let it go.

"Sasha, Uncle and Uncle Gu Xiao want to talk about something, can you watch TV here by yourself?"

Just apologize to him.

"Well, Sasha knows!" Xiao Sa nodded.

Walking into the room, the man was sitting in front of the computer playing something, his brows were tightly frowned, and his eyes were stern.

"Gu Xiao." Gu Xi called softly.

Gu Xiao turned his head, glanced at him, and turned back unhappily.

Sitting on the edge of the bed behind him, Gu Xi said in a soft voice full of apology: "Gu Xiao, I admit that I may be... a little... afraid... but, but Mom and Dad really miss you, I They always miss you every time they go home, and you don’t know that you haven’t been home for so long, and Mom cried while holding your photo several times!”

Gu Xiao ignored him.

"...I know you're not happy with me like this, I'm not good, but my parents are right, they look forward to you every day, you, you are in this city, and you still don't go back... It's hard to justify..."

Still no response.

"Gu Xiao?" Gu Xi called him again, but he ignored him. Gu Xi reached out and patted his shoulder, "Gu Xiao..."

No matter what you call it.

Gu Xi had no choice but to go forward, bent slightly, put his hands around his neck, then put his head down to his ear and rubbed it, "...Gu Xiao, can you just talk to me?"

A sigh reached Gu Xi's ears, and Gu Xiao put a hand on his arm, "You know that I don't want to go back, and you also know why I don't want to go back."

"But I..." Gu Xi hesitated to speak, what he said would definitely make Gu Xiao unhappy.

Gu Xiaola let go of his hand, then pulled him by the waist and hugged him into his arms, letting him sit on his lap.Gu Xi wasn't used to it, so he pushed his shoulder to think about it, but when he saw his frowning brows, he became timid, and quickly sat down obediently.

"You always don't tell me what you think, you always want to decide and deal with things yourself, but why don't you ask me if I want to? What you decide also has my fate, don't I have the right to participate? ?” Gu Xiao said calmly, like an adult educating a child.

Gu Xi desperately lowered his head, "...Didn't I tell you then..."

"Are you sure that's not a notification?"

"...Then, what do you want to do now."

"Tell Mom and Dad."

"No!" Gu Xi objected immediately.

"They'll always know."

Their ideas are completely opposite, even if they told Gu Xiao back then, it would not be any different.It's not that he doesn't want to be with Gu Xiao, it's just that he is more reluctant to destroy this family. If he really does what Gu Xiao said, he will feel guilty and blame himself for the rest of his life.

"After the year, are you going back to America?" Gu Xi asked.

"No, unless you come with me."

"Then your job?"

"I have already applied to the company to be transferred back to China."

Gu Xi didn't speak, it took a long time for him to say "hmm", and stood up, Gu Xiao pushed him back again.He whispered in embarrassment: "...Gu Xiao, I'm twisted..."

"Then hug for a little longer," Gu Xiao rascally said, and then asked him with a serious face: "Did you plan to do something just now?"

Gu Xi glanced at Gu Xiao, duplicity said: "No." After speaking, he struggled again.

Xiao Sa didn't know when he came over. When the door opened, Gu Xi hadn't had time to break free, so he fell into the child's eyes.

Xiao Sa opened his eyes wide, looked puzzled at Uncle Gu who jumped up from Uncle Gu Xiao's lap quickly, and asked curiously, "Uncle Gu, why are you like Dad, you are so big and still want to hug you? "

Gu Xi blushed, and argued: "No uncle, uncle accidentally fell down... Sasha, why did you come in, have you finished the cartoon?" quickly changed the subject.

"Yeah, that's why I came to see you."

"Let's go, Sasha, I'll play flying chess with you." Gu Xi took Xiao Sa and fled the scene. Gu Xiao enjoyed watching him run away, and turned around to play computer leisurely.
