fleeting year

Gao Shan asked Gui to fetch Gui's books at school.

When he is in a good state of mind, Gui will study in the study. After all, he is not sloppy with his grades.And whenever he was reading legal documents in his study, Takasugi would always "appear at the right time" and then sit down opposite him, sometimes processing documents and sometimes reading books.

In fact, only Takasugi knows that his real purpose is to see Gui.

He likes to see Gui seriously reading a book. Gui is holding a pen and staring at the book. His eyelashes tremble slightly. Every time he lowers his head, the hair will fall from his shoulders and hang down on both sides of his cheeks, fluttering gently with his movements.

Takasugi felt his heart rippling along with it.

Sometimes when seeing something that is not easy to understand, Gui will frowned unconsciously, and his expression will also be slightly annoyed. Although it is only a small movement, it will be captured by Gao Shan.

Gao Shan felt that this appearance was extremely cute, and he looked at the unaware person on the opposite side, and slightly raised the corners of his mouth.

Finally, Gui felt the overly enthusiastic gaze above his head, "What's the matter, Takasugi?" He raised his eyes slightly, trying not to show embarrassment.

Gao Shan smiled, and put Gui's hair hanging on both sides behind his ears, "Hey, wig, you look so cute when you read a book."

When Takasugi touched his ear, Gui felt the base of his ear get hot, and his face immediately turned red.With slight annoyance, he shouted: "Gao Shan, be serious!"

Gao Shan looked at Gui's red cheeks and ears, but still squinted his eyes and chuckled, his green eyes filled with a triumphant smile, "Hey, wig, I'm telling the truth."

There is indescribable intimacy in the tone.

But after all, there are only a few times when he is in a good state of mind. Most of the time, Gui will stay in the bedroom. When the weather is good, he will blow the wind on the terrace outside the bedroom for a while.

Although living here, Gui's understanding of Takasugi's home is limited to the bedroom and the study.Standing on the terrace, all he could see was the neatly manicured flower beds in the courtyard and the neatly arranged houses in the distance.And most of the time, he wouldn't even see other people in this house except Takasugi, Takeshi, and Kuishima Matako.

Takasugi seems to be very busy sometimes, when Gui is fine, he will leave for a while, but generally the time is not very long.Whenever this time, it was Wu Shi who guarded Gui.Takeshi is Takasugi's housekeeper, a middle-aged man who doesn't talk much, but exudes a deep and wise aura.

But Gui felt that he couldn't understand Gao Shan more and more. Even though Gao Shan was always by his side, he felt that Gao Shan was so far away from him, so far away that he might never be able to touch him.

That is the distance of eight years.

It was another afternoon when the sun was slanting to the west, Gao Shan had something to do and left for a while, Gui stood on the terrace, looking at the twilight clouds in the distance, he was slightly dazed.

Wu Shi added tea to the cup, walked behind Gui, and said, "Mr. Gui, sit down and rest for a while, this is the green tea that the young master ordered for you."

Green tea is the most calming, Gui took the teacup, lowered his eyes slightly, and replied: "I have a heart."

Holding the teacup, the warmth on the wall of the cup is like a torrent, reaching directly to the heart, mixed with the fragrance of tea, making people lose their minds for a moment.

Gui sat on the edge of the terrace, sipping green tea, looking at the garden gradually shrouded in twilight, counting the passage of time every minute and every second.

He is waiting for Takasugi.

But what he never expected was that he was waiting here for someone else, an unexpected person.

He saw a figure walking across the flowerbed, judging from his figure, it was a person he had never seen since he came here.Finally, the man approached, and when the man was clearly exposed in his field of vision, he froze.

"Kang Dang——" The teacup slipped from his hand and smashed to pieces on the marble floor.

"Mr. Gui?"

Gui stood there in a daze, as if he couldn't hear anything, until he watched the tall man with duck-green hair walk straight into the main house.

For a moment, all the light in his world seemed to be dimmed——

That man was the one who negotiated with him from the casino when he went to redeem someone on behalf of the school; it was also this man who came forward to control the situation when Chen Ma fought with the people from the casino.He had crossed paths with this man twice, how could he admit his mistake.

But the man who belonged to the underworld element came in and out here, so Takasugi, he...

He suddenly didn't dare to think about it.

It turns out that the distance between us has reached this point.But ah, some distances are caused by time, and there is nothing we can do about it; while some distances are separated by ourselves, and it is us who push each other farther and farther.

After discussing the matter with Wan Qi, Gao Shan hurried back to the room. Although he had told Wushi that Gui would report to him whenever there was a situation, he was still worried.

There was no light in the room, and under the dark atmosphere, Gui sat there like a stone sculpture.

Gao Shan's heart suddenly stopped, he remembered the time when Gui just lost his parents, and he went to Gui's house to look for him, and it was a similar scene.

He gently walked to Gui's side, and stretched out his hand with a little tentativeness, but when his hand just touched Gui's shoulder, Gui brushed it away.

"wig?"

"Takasugi, do you think it's interesting to lie to me like I'm a fool?"

In the dim light, Gui raised his head, his eyes were filled with a cold light, which hurt Gao Shan's eyes.

"Wig..." He obviously wanted to say a lot, but he couldn't say anything at the moment, and his heart was blocked by something so painful.

"How many things are you hiding from me?" Gui asked him loudly, "Tell me, Takasugi Shinsuke!"

"..."

"What are you doing behind the scenes? What is your relationship with the underworld?"

"..."

"You talk, why didn't you tell me?" His voice suddenly softened, trembling slightly, "Are you still the Takasugi I know..."

"Wig, sorry."

"Gaoshan, I didn't know that you didn't believe me so much." Gui's eyes were reddish.

"...No, wig, listen to me, I just want to protect you."

He said: "When you lost your parents, I told you, I want to protect you, I always remember."

"But I didn't do it. When the orphanage had an accident, I failed to protect you. You were injured, and Teacher Songyang passed away... I regret it and hate myself. But after so long, I found I lost you, I tried my best to get close to you, I think I can protect you, but I'm afraid, I'm afraid you won't accept me. When I stepped out of the orphanage, I was brought into the other world, I want to inherit Underworld, this is impossible."

He spoke in a low voice, his voice filled with sadness like the sea, which melted into the darkness and flowed silently in the air.

"But now, even if I am capable, I still haven't been able to protect you well. I got you involved in the underworld struggle. Someone tried to get revenge on you. I made you addicted to drugs... "

He suddenly couldn't continue, he looked at Gui, his eyes were so thin and fragile, it was the eyes of Takasugi Shinsuke when he was a child, "I'm sorry."

"..."

Gui silently looked at Gao Shan, and he saw this arrogant purple-haired man hanging his head powerlessly like a wounded child.

After a long time, Takasugi smiled suddenly, it was a sarcastic smile, he said:

"Wig, am I very useless? I keep saying that I want to protect you, but I hurt you time and time again. But..." He sighed, walked up to Gui, and held Gui's hand. explain:

"But the wig, I still want to protect you, I want to protect you for the rest of my life."

This sentence fell into his ears, Gui was stunned, and then he tried to struggle to get his hands out, but Gao Shan pulled him even tighter.

After a long time, he whispered: "Gaoshan, I'm tired, I want to be alone."

The sound floated into the darkness, rendering the night somewhat sad.
