paternal inheritance

Just right, I saw your happy appearance, so I was happy with your happiness.

--"The forest in Norway"

But time flies, and the time flies by.

More than ten years have transformed Wang Cheng, who was originally tall, thin, handsome, and indifferent, into Manager Wang with a beer belly and smile lines all over his face. Weak, weather-beaten clerk.

Even Gu Ning, who was only babbling and biting his fingers clumsily at the beginning, has become a handsome and sunny campus male god.

However, time treats Ning Zhexuan very kindly.

Those years of time seemed to have failed to leave many traces on his face.

For a handsome man with a successful career, the charm of a mature man will become more attractive in middle age, just like wine in a cellar, the longer it is, the more mellow it will be.

Of course, for a man who has accomplished nothing, time will only mercilessly make him show his vicissitudes.

————————————————————————————————————

Wang Cheng directly took Gu Yucheng to a coffee shop. The decoration of the coffee shop was simple and elegant. The blue-gray walls were meticulously carved with exquisite prints. The whole layout was simple and generous, and the details were carefully crafted.

The morning sun is the most beautiful, the floating morning light is jumping, a well-dressed man is sitting by the window, seems to be aware of his arrival, just turned his head, the two eyes collided, the man against the light has mature facial features, It's not as handsome and compelling as when you were young, it seems to be a beautiful jade that has been carefully carved and polished, its brilliance is restrained, but it is more captivating.Just sitting there without saying a word is the focus.

But such a scene made Gu Yucheng suddenly think of the scene when Ning Zhexuan was waiting for him for the first time, the boy who smelled of lemon-flavored bath water and liked to raise his eyebrows and fake a smile.

Gu Yucheng avoided Ning Zhexuan's sight and secretly raised his vigilance.

Wang Cheng sent Gu Yucheng to the coffee shop and left, but before he left, he threw down a vicious sentence - "It's been more than ten years, let's have a longer memory!"

Gu Yucheng walked up to Ning Zhexuan calmly. If Ning Zhexuan hadn't spoken to Gu Ning, he would never want to see Ning Zhexuan again.When all the love and hatred gradually disappeared with time, the only thing left was Gu Yucheng's fear of Ning Zhexuan's methods.

Ning Zhexuan looked Gu Yucheng up and down at first, but didn't stop looking at him.Slowly stirring the coffee with his head down, Ning Zhexuan's ten fingers are as long as jade, such a simple movement can be pleasing to the eye.

There was an eerie silence on both sides.

"Did you not add sugar cube?" Ning Zhexuan used to add a sugar cube.

Gu Yucheng really couldn't bear this suffocating silence, so he started looking for something to talk about. Of course, he didn't ask casually. Some things can't be forgotten once they are remembered.

Ning Zhexuan finally stopped stirring coffee boringly. After many years, his voice is as magical as ever, even more seductive, deep and magnetic. In the words of the little girls, listening to it will make the ears pregnant .

He said in his magical voice—"It's been so many years, and you remember?"

There was no emotion in that voice, but it could be heard that he was trying to suppress something.

Gu Yucheng shook his head lightly, did not speak, and did not know what he was denying.

"I returned to China eight years ago... At that time... you don't know where you went..." Ning Zhexuan spoke slowly, as if explaining or simply telling, "That child... ...Is your name Gu Ning? When I heard about you, you were already living a very stable life..." What Ning Zhexuan didn't say was that he had secretly looked at Gu Yucheng from a distance. At that time, Gu Yucheng was with Seven or eight-year-old Gu Ning was walking on the street. On the way, Gu Yucheng knelt down and pinched Gu Ning's fleshy face. Gu Yucheng smiled very happily. It was... a smile he had never seen before when he was by his side. , very dazzling, very pure.

"I think... at that time, you probably didn't want to see me," Ning Zhexuan turned his head and looked out the window, "I happened to be here on a business trip, thinking... no matter what, I was a little bit unwilling, so, be tough I am sorry to ask you to come and see me."

After all, it has changed. The seemingly gentle and refined boy was actually more arrogant and arrogant in his bones. How could such a casual apology be the original Ning Zhexuan?

Gu Yucheng looked at the coffee in front of him. He didn't like drinking coffee very much. He was secretly afraid of suffering. Coffee sweet coffee.

"What...are you so unwilling?" Gu Yucheng spoke slowly but calmly, "At the beginning...even if I didn't agree to the agreement you made without authorization, didn't you also...miss the appointment?"

Regardless of whether he still likes Ning Zhexuan or not, it is undeniable that this is a lump in his throat.

"..."

The aroma of coffee is very mellow, the sunlight outside the window is very warm, the atmosphere should be comfortable and warm, but Ning Zhexuan just feels cold hands and feet.

"I'm sorry..." It seemed that he only had these three words left.

In fact, Ning Zhexuan would often ask himself, what is Gu Yucheng to him? Before Gu Yucheng personally revealed it, Ning Zhexuan had never thought about it. Repressed crazy feelings.But I just don't want to think about it all the time, as if I am ashamed to admit this, people who I have always looked down on, people who are obviously weak and incompetent, but after all they still occupy a place in me.

until lost.

Humans have always had such bad roots.

Only when you lose it do you feel that you should cherish it.

It's not that he didn't realize that Gu Yucheng treated him meticulously and tried his best, and it's not that he didn't realize that Gu Yucheng's appearance would make him feel at peace.

How is it possible, how is it possible... would you admit to that little difference?

Wang Cheng said that Gu Yucheng deserved to be blamed for his fate, so... why didn't he blame himself?

In the final analysis... He also became the coward he despised the most.

Gu Yucheng suddenly felt uneasy, he looked at his watch, Wang Cheng said he asked for leave for him, but he still felt bad, if he could go to the company in time, he still wanted to go to the company.

If... Ning Zhexuan didn't come for Gu Ning, then... there is nothing to talk about at all.

"Ning Zhexuan..." Gu Yucheng stood up, the oppressive atmosphere made him feel uncomfortable, "Gu Ning...you won't want to go back, right?" There was a little imperceptible tension in the original steady voice.

Ning Zhexuan, who was sitting quietly, raised his head and smiled, as if the handsomeness of Zhilan Yushu came to his face, but there was a slight bitterness in the smile, "Of course... Gu Ning's name is not right, and Ning's name is not right. The heir has already been determined, there is no need for me to take him away, he will follow you, very good."

The big rock hanging in Gu Yucheng's heart suddenly fell to the ground.

Gu Yucheng bowed down to express his gratitude without being muddled at all, "Ningning is very important to me. I didn't want to resent you for that incident at the beginning. On the contrary, thank you..."

Looking at the unhealthy Gu Yucheng's face turned rosy, and the smile he hung was a little bit more relaxed than before, as if he was completely relieved.

When I can say this thank you frankly, it also means that I no longer hate you at all, and I no longer... love you at all.

Gu Yucheng turned and left without hesitation, walking in a hurry, the last gloomy look in his eyes was gone.

Ning Zhexuan leaned against the window with his eyes closed, slightly raised his head, after all... he missed it.

——————————————————————————————————————

The sun is setting, and the rays of light are alluring.

The sycamore leaves sway trivially, while the lonely shadow under the leaves is long, and there is a faint fragrance floating on the road.

In a small apartment.

The young man who was as bright and beautiful as the sun was lazily lying on the sofa, twitching the corners of his mouth and looking at Gu Yucheng, who seemed to be eating with a big appetite because he was in a good mood.

"I've hit you! I usually pretend to be gentle and only eat a little, why did I eat so much today!" Gu Ning curled his lips, rolled his eyes, seemed to think of something, and became anxious again, "It's agreed to make up for me, wow !Could it be that you still want to procrastinate and get some moths to make up for me! Damn, who cares! "

"I promised you how could you break your promise?" Gu Yucheng was in a good mood, smiling anytime and anywhere, because it was from the heart, so it was easy to make people dazzled.

"Fuck! Why are you laughing so yd?" Gu Ning muttered in a low voice, with layers of faint pink on the tips of his ears.
