[The summer solstice has not yet come] Carving time

<36>

Most of the people who knew Gu Qiaochu's name were thinking, hey, how could this person be the owner of a small book bar now that he lived a prosperous and prosperous life so recklessly and happily.

You must know that although the storefronts around Asakawa No. [-] Middle School have been overpriced because they are near the campus in the past few years, the position of the owner of the book bar is much lower than that of the sales manager of Huashang when he first left the campus.

To be honest, it’s fine to just be the owner of a book bar, but who knows that the former classmate who returned to Asakawa No. [-] Middle School this afternoon suddenly released a rather shocking news.

Carving time is smashed.

Lu Zhiang's face turned dark when he saw the news.In the past few years, he has gained a firm foothold in the company with his excellent business ability. He has just come to the Asakawa branch to become the general manager of the company. Without looking back, he grabbed his suit jacket and rushed out.

An assistant who was transferred along with him just took some instant coffee and poured it into a cup to send to the office. Seeing Lu Zhiang rushing out in a hurry, he was stunned, and he didn't know what to do with the coffee. , Complaining to the colleagues around him with a bitter face, "What's the matter with the general manager, he is so energetic after two days of sleepless nights?"

Lu Zhiang stepped on the accelerator all the way and rushed over, and successfully arrived at the gate of Carving Time before the rush hour traffic jam.He had just locked the car and walked two steps, when he saw that the entire east side of the shop was shattered.His eyes were about to burst into flames, and when he rushed into the store, he saw only the clerk who was cleaning hard but didn't see Gu Qiaochu, and unconsciously his heart was raised in his throat, and his throat hurt uncontrollably when he spoke. , "Where's Gu Qiaochu?!"

Could it be that he was beaten by the shopkeeper? !Is it serious? !In the hospital or at the police station? !Do you need someone to help? !Who to call!

At that time, Lu Zhiang thought about countless questions in his mind, and then he looked in the direction of the clerk's finger, his eyes passed the lush camphor and willow trees, and finally saw a vague shadow crouching on the river bank guardrail.

He frowned to gather his mind, and then ran to the embankment.

Who knew that when he got closer, he suddenly stopped.He recalled the series of questions in his mind just now, and it seemed that he was in exactly the same situation as Gu Qiaochu back then.

The good Gu Qiaochu who had been protecting him and thinking about him all the time, when he was stabbed at that time, was he thinking about how to help him get out just like he is now?

Thinking of this, Lu Zhiang couldn't stop the tears welling up in his eyes, it happened that the river wind was blowing at this time, Gu Qiaochu could only turn his back and turn around.He saw Lu Zhiang standing there at a glance, and extinguished the cigarette between his fingers on the stone pier, and greeted with a smile, "Oh, what are you doing standing there."

"Are you fucking going to die?!" Lu Zhiang suddenly stood on the spot and yelled loudly. He looked at the stupefied Gu Qiaochu, and suddenly couldn't help it, "You don't want me to stop looking for you and stop following me Are you involved?! Then you have a good time alone?! Why worry me all day long!"

"...You really like to yell when you talk to me, but you don't think your throat hurts." After hearing the first sentence, Gu Qiaochu felt quite uncomfortable, since he had almost adjusted it by himself.The joy of seeing Lu Zhiang coming to find him could not last for half a minute, and he was pierced by that blunt words like he had sprinkled a handful of cumin powder on his already scarred heart, almost roasting it.But when Lu Zhiang took a deep breath and continued to speak, his eyes suddenly became hot again.

You seem to have really grown up and turned our positions upside down.

"So what's going on? The store was smashed and you didn't even call the police?!"

In fact, it's not that serious.

Gu Qiaochu leaned against the sun-burned guardrail, he couldn't help but want to laugh, but suddenly felt a little relaxed.

It was the guy who was locked up in the prison and immediately found his former cronies to smash his shop after he came out, deliberately trying to make him unhappy.But when Gu Qiaochu evacuated the customers and the clerk dragged a chair and sat there, the hysterical person suddenly became dazed.

"Go ahead, smash it." Gu Qiaochu pushed his glasses and smiled, "I'll see the extent of your damage and then decide what kind of maintenance personnel I want to hire."

The person taking the lead is like being choked up.Before he was released from prison, he thought of a lot of tricks to make Gu Qiaochu look ugly and uncomfortable. Finally, when he found out that Gu Qiaochu had opened a bookstore, he sneered and decided to find someone to smash up Gu Qiaochu's store. Of course, this was only the initial stage. light.

But when he looked at Gu Qiaochu's indifference, it seemed that all his actions suddenly lost their meaning.

The reason for this is that Gu Qiaochu ridiculed him as he did a long time ago, because his behavior and demeanor were completely lost and he couldn't pretend anymore. In the end, he made Gu Qiaochu look like a person whose feet were caught by an evil spirit and could no longer move forward. .

But what if Gu Qiaochu doesn't care about these things at all.kill him? !

"Actually, I never knew why you targeted me like this."

After Gu Qiaochu said this, he started laughing muffledly when he finished.He didn't have the slightest impression of it in detail, but he could actually make a rough guess.At the beginning, he himself was arrogant, young and frivolous. Although most of the time he treated people with courtesy and courtesy, it was actually extremely difficult to get close to them.

Gu Qiaochu actually felt a little complicated when he thought that this person who had trouble with him time and time again might also want to be his friend.He squinted his eyes and smiled, but finally he was no longer as contemptuous or indifferent as he was in high school, and had a little gentleness, "I just think that your life doesn't need to be changed because of resentment towards me or something. It's a mess."

Few people would believe it, but Gu Qiaochu suffered a lot because he tried some tricks to get these people out of school.He also wonders whether he has ruined other people's lives, whether he has left an indelible stain on others forever.Later, his leg was broken by life under the river embankment, and he was also angry, hopeless and sad, but when he thought about it carefully, the causal cycle was not like this.

"One ring after another, one report after another. I despised you, you insulted me, I let you be expelled from school, you shortened my legs, I sent you to jail, you came to smash my shop... But when will it be a head?"

Different from the gentleness that he pretended to be at the beginning, Gu Qiaochu has really been polished by time to become a gentle and firm man.He was already too lazy to figure out who made the mistake in such a long mess, he just wanted to get everyone in a good direction as soon as possible.

When he was talking about this, Gu Qiaochu unconsciously hooked Gou Lu Zhiang's little finger, and he pointed to the old and peeling bridge not far away, "I...was beaten under that bridge hole at the beginning. Broken leg. It was the owner of the video store who found out and saved me."

Lu Zhiang's expression suddenly turned serious, he gritted his teeth tightly with a straight face, and the little finger that was hooked by Gu Qiaochu also covered his hand and grabbed Gu Qiaochu's hand in his hand.

He thought of the eyes of the person beside him, the legs of the person, the person tossed and turned in the winter night because of the cold and couldn't sleep well, and finally he could no longer use the pen to paint and play the piano like he did before, and there might even be a belly button in his abdomen. The scars left by him.

"So your eyes and legs are related to me, the scar on your abdomen was left by me, and your mind is all about me. Even so..." Lu Zhiang moved slightly, he turned his face away Looking at Gu Qiaochu, he lifted the corners of his lips and smiled like the original Gu Qiaochu, "Do you still think I can forget you?"

"You were not as whimsical as you are now."

I don't know if it was caused by the words "Your brain is all about me" or "Whimsical", Gu Qiaochu's face was red and white, and it was exciting.His two lips parted and closed, and he couldn't say anything other than a few words "I".

"You came back... Isn't it because you miss me?" Lu Zhiang's words became affirmative. He looked at Gu Qiaochu's frozen face, and at that time was angry because Gu Qiaochu wanted to separate himself from him. They all retreated.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that if Gu Qiaochu really wanted to get rid of him, why would he come back to him.The two of them haven't seen each other for several years. If they really made up their minds to break up the relationship, wouldn't it be fine to continue to maintain a state of not seeing each other.

When Gu Qiaochu came back this time, he clearly missed him.As for the things I said that day, it was just because I couldn't get over the hurdle in my heart.

The elders are not optimistic about us, so we will not be good?

Others think we are inappropriate, so are we really inappropriate?

Aunt Xiao said that we will be fine if we separate...

"Do you believe that I can live well without you?"

Gu Qiaochu didn't have time to speak, he was so choked by Lu Zhiang.He remembered when he was in high school and college, although Lu Zhiang was articulate and eloquent, he didn't look aggressive like he is now.He smiled wryly to himself, not knowing whether this man was tortured by society or if he could not restrain his aggressiveness towards him.

Then he finally treated Lu Zhiang as a man.

Just like Lu Zhiang once told him, when a person becomes an adult, he has to take full responsibility for every choice he makes.He didn't know that what Lu Zhiang was talking about was actually the first kiss between the two, otherwise he wouldn't have the nerve to think about it.

He just felt that if he wanted to take the responsibility of liking Lu Zhiang, he would really be ashamed of his deceased grandma.

His grandma passed away not long after he recovered from his injury.Although everyone who knew about it comforted him that he was old and it was time to leave.

However, Gu Qiaochu inevitably wondered if it was him who frightened the old man on the day of his accident... This hastened the arrival of this day.
