Work related
you see? "Gu Xiaotian became interested when he heard it, and asked quickly.
"Okay. Brother, just wait for me that day, I'll be right there." Gu Nian ran out with a swish, and came back with a pile of manuscript papers soon.
"Brother Tian, how is it?" Gu Nian carefully asked the silent Gu Xiaotian, every time Gu Xiaotian read a page, Gu Nian's heart beat wildly, fearing that he would say something bad, repeated this several times, Gu Nian I feel like I'm getting nervous.
"Well, the writing is very good, and the story is very smooth, but, as the publisher said, the arrangement of the story really needs work."
"Hey, I knew it would be like this. This is already the most brilliant story I can come up with. Sure enough, I don't have the life to write articles. Since you have said so, Brother Tian, I will still listen to grandpa in the future, old man. Just go and study economics honestly, I can't go to the Department of Literature." Gu Nian said dejectedly.
"Well, do you have time during this period? If you have time, write a story outline every day for practice. Note that the outline is the plot setting of the story. For example, how to start the chapter, how to set suspense, and how to set the climax, all must be considered. Well, it’s about a thousand words. If I have time, I’ll tell you about it and analyze it by the end of the week.”
"Brother Tian, thank you so much." Gu Nian stood up excitedly, bowed to Gu Xiaotian, and said with reddish eyes, "Brother Tian, they all say you are not good, but in my opinion, you He is the best person in the world. When he gets better, he still does not forget to drive me forward. Brother Tian, from now on you will be my big brother. Just say what you ask me to do. As long as I can do it, I will never shirk it."
Gu Xiaotian was overjoyed, but he didn't show it at all, and said with a smile, "Look at what you said, we are brothers in the first place, and we should help each other. Why do we need to talk about each other as a family."
After sending Gu Nian away, Gu Xiaotian looked at the dark sky outside and thought to himself, and found him in his room. If it wasn't for Gu Nian, I don't know what troubles would happen, there is no place in the Gu family that is safe.
Thinking of the scene when he met Gu Yue and Liu Ruomei in the evening, Gu Xiaotian clenched his hands into fists. These people dared to treat him like this, and in the future, he must pay back double.
☆、Official adoption
"It's time for the little boss next." Gu Xiaotian was thinking about the plot in his heart, and the pen in his hand was moving rapidly. As his ability to control writing became stronger and stronger, the speed of writing became faster and faster.Now that he is writing, there are not as many things that need to be revised as in the beginning. He can write a thousand words in an hour. As for correcting typos and re-transcribing, Gu Nian is left to do it.
On the one hand, Gu Xiaotian was happy for his progress, but on the other hand, he was worried that the speed could not be improved any more.This novel has more than 100 million words. According to the rhythm of [-] words per day, it will take several months to write. He doesn't have so much time to do this.
In the Celestial Dynasty, there has never been a shortage of literati who starved to death. Gu Xiaotian never thought about accumulating original funds by writing books. Even if he did, he completely lost the idea after knowing the level of manuscript fees.Because even if he finished writing "Legend of Feather" with more than 100 million words, according to the current newspaper remuneration standard for newcomers, it is not bad to have 10,000 words and [-] words, and the whole book is only [-]+. The original capital of real estate is far from enough.At most, I will buy a few houses for him to store up, and wait for the demolition and price increase in more than ten years.
It is only serious to find a good real estate project and use Gu Chen's name to find a rich person to invest in.
There must be other ways to increase the speed, Gu Xiaotian dropped the pen, quietly looked at the manuscript paper in front of him, thinking secretly.
"Brother Tian, what's the matter?" Gu Nian, who was sitting across from him, raised his head, and seeing Gu Xiaotian's pensive face, couldn't help asking.
"It's okay, I'm thinking about the plot." Gu Xiaotian waved his hand, indicating that he should not worry about himself.
"Well, brother Tian, look at this place, I think we can add some descriptive words to it to show Wang Shilong's vicious image, so that the article will have more words." After getting along with Gu Xiaotian for a long time, Gu Nian was not as blushing as she was at the beginning, and even occasionally suggested some revisions of her own in the process of transcribing.
"Well, you can figure it out. As long as this kind of thing doesn't involve the plot, or delete some content, you can make up your own mind." Gu Xiaotian waved his hand casually.
He already felt that time was tight, and what he wrote was not a literary masterpiece, but a fast food novel, and readers would not read it carefully. There was no need to ask himself such insignificant matters, but Gu Nian's attitude was too serious , who is very devout to literature, who came to help him as an idol, he had no other thoughts at all, did a lot of work without a penny, and was more responsible than professional help, Gu Xiaotian was too embarrassed to speak.
Gu Xiaotian looked at the manuscript in front of him and thought to himself, if the writing speed cannot be increased, how can we increase the writing speed again?Or reduce the time spent on writing each plot without affecting Gu Nian's side. Thinking of this, Gu Xiaotian had an idea in his heart, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
"Ah Nian, if I simplify the description, for example, for a scene that originally took [-] words to describe, I only use [-] words to write it, but I will write the whole plot, can you enrich the details? "Gu Xiaotian asked.
"Brother Tian, are you saying that you want to give me more room for creativity?" Gu Nian stood up with a face full of joy, and his eyes were shining brightly.It must be Brother Tian who sees that I always like to give opinions and wants to give me a greater opportunity to exercise. If I can enrich this story under the guidance of Brother Tian, my writing level will definitely be improved even more. Brother Tian It was too good for me.Gu Nian thought to himself.
Gu Xiaotian didn't expect him to have such a big reaction, and he was taken aback, but this misunderstanding is not a bad thing, anyway, what he wants is to write the story faster so that he can free up his hands to do other things.
"Well, are you willing to help me with this work? This may take a little more effort than simply fixing typos before, but it will be of great help to improve your writing level. And wait for this story later It has been serialized, and I can pay you part of the remuneration."
Gu Nian nodded vigorously, "Enen, I am willing, Brother Tian, you are so kind to me, you don't need to give me the money, I have a lot of pocket money, you can keep it for yourself."
"Well, you can help me transcribe the previous ones first, and then I need you to help expand the later ones. It's about a rhythm of [-] words and [-] words."
After that, Gu Xiaotian handed over the first abbreviated draft, and Gu Nian took almost the same time as usual to transcribe it and expand it a lot.
Gu Xiaotian's speed here is much faster than usual, especially since he himself is better at writing outlines, his speed has improved a lot.
And Gu Nian looked at the outline written by Gu Xiaotian, his eyes were filled with amazement, the simplified version of the story can be so exciting, Tian Ge can come up with so many good-looking stories, he is definitely a genius, as expected, he has the hope of surpassing Mo Fei.
"Okay, Ah Nian, it's time to rest. Let's write tomorrow. You have worked hard today." Gu Xiaotian, who has been writing for a day, has a tired face, but he is also very excited. At this speed, he can finish this job faster It's a novel, and even later, he can directly write the outline and let Gu Nian write it, and he can free up his hands to do other things.
The smiling Gu Xiaotian was not at all ashamed of his actions, and happily hummed a song and went out for a run.
Thanks to his persistence in exercising, even if he has to sit and write manuscripts for a long time every day, after these days, he will not feel particularly tired, and he has even gradually gotten used to this kind of intense work.The only regret is that even though he tried his best to bask in the sun, his skin was not tanned to that beautiful bronze color, it was still as fair as a woman's.
Early the next morning, Gu Xiaotian, who came back from a morning run, was about to go to the restaurant for breakfast, when he saw Gu Nian approaching him with a mysterious face, looked around and sneakily said to him, "Brother Tian, there is good news, I went back last night When I was sleeping, I heard my grandma crying to someone in the room, saying that my fourth uncle wanted to adopt you as my son, and my grandfather agreed, and I will announce the news today. If you can become the son of my fourth uncle, no one in the family will dare Bullied you."
Gu Xiaotian was about to answer, but Gu Nian rolled his eyes and said again, "No, Grandpa and the others must have discussed this matter with you, Brother Tian, did you already know? It's not right, we are talking about it every day these days One piece, they have no chance to find you at all. How, how, brother Tian, are you happy?"
Gu Xiaotian listened to him talking to himself for a while, but he didn't dislike it, and said with a smile, "Yes. Thank you for telling me such good news. Alright, let's go have breakfast."
After breakfast, the old man took a sip of boiling hot tea, looked at everyone present, stood up and said, "Today I have good news to announce to everyone, the fourth brother plans to adopt Xiaotian. We have completed the formalities. Xiaotian is the fourth son's son, my own grandson."
Hearing the old man's words, all the people present showed a look of surprise on their faces, they couldn't help whispering to each other, the small voices in the room kept talking, and the eyes they looked at Gu Xiaotian were quite complicated.
"What? I don't agree." Liu Ruomei shouted out loudly, different from the small voices of the crowd.
The old man's face darkened. This Liu Ruomei is just a relative of the old lady's natal family. Even if the old lady spoils her, she is still an outsider. At this time, there is no room for her to express her opinion. Besides, this is a family matter of the Gu family. Why should she An outsider objected.Therefore, she was quite dissatisfied with Liu Ruomei, and said coldly, "What I'm telling you today is the result, I'm not here to ask for your opinions, to discuss with you."
"Well, I just don't think Gu Xiaotian is worthy of being my fourth cousin's son. Uncle, even though you love Xiaotian, you can't go against your fourth cousin's wishes and force someone into him." Although when I said this to Gu Xinguo, Liu Ruomei was a little apprehensive, but thinking that she was going to marry Gu Chen in the future, in order not to let this shameless thing be her son, she had to fight for it no matter what.After speaking, he turned his big watery eyes to look at the old lady.
Seeing her like this, a mocking smile appeared on Gu Yue's face, this Liu Ruomei really has a long face but not a brain.Although the old man doesn't care about the affairs of the back house, it's not the old lady who is in charge of the house, but the old man. The old man has spoken, how much room can the old lady have to speak, look at the red and swollen eyes of the old lady, it's probably because yesterday Knowing the result, how could it be possible to rely on her to change this matter.It's a pity that Liu Ruomei didn't understand this truth.
The old lady was about to speak when Gu Chen stood up suddenly.
Liu Ruomei was still immersed in the dream that she would become Gu Chen's wife, she was very contented, and looked at Gu Chen who was walking towards her with a sweet smile on her face.
"Fourth cousin..." After Liu Ruomei shouted this, the smile on her face froze, she watched Gu Chen pass her, strode to Gu Xiaotian's side, and pulled Gu Xiaotian up.
Gu Xiaotian:?
"From today onwards, Gu Xiaotian is my son, Gu Chen." The man put his arm around Gu Xiaotian's shoulders, looked around and said to everyone present, he didn't say the following words, but everyone knew that he was warning, warning everyone not to To torture him.Gu Chen's voice was young and full of strength, with a bit of irresistible force.
The moment he was hugged, Gu Xiaotian only felt that he was surrounded by a strange and powerful breath, his body seemed to be out of control, and became extremely stiff, his face was very hot, and his heart was beating wildly. My mind was also blank.
Aware of his stiffness, Gu Chen lowered his head to look at the people around him after saying that, and Gu Xiaotian also raised his head when he noticed his gaze.After that, Gu Xiaotian felt that his heartbeat was about to stop, and his pupils shrank slightly—Gu Chen was so handsome when he saw him up close.
Because he just came back from the army, Gu Chen's hair was cut very short, but it didn't affect his handsomeness at all, and even added a bit of masculinity.Those two thick eyebrows are like sharp swords flying into the temples, a pair of black shiny eyes are like obsidian stained with morning dew, the bridge of the nose is high, and the outline is deep, like a legendary god, which makes Gu Xiaotian have a An urge to worship.
"From now on, I will protect your life." Gu Chen looked at Gu Xiaotian's face and said seriously.
☆、Gu Shaoliwei
"Fourth cousin, I don't want you to have a son who is not a few years younger than me before you are married to me. I don't want to be a stepmother." Liu Ruomei looked at Gu Chen, who was dressed in casual clothes and handsome, with eyes full of resentment, sobbing Sobbing and crying.
Facing Gu Chen's black jewel-like eyes, Liu Ruomei was stunned, looking at him greedily, even the people present didn't notice that they frowned because of her words.
Gu Chen took a look at this self-confident cousin, and then refocused on the people around him. His indifferent attitude seemed to be a waste of tongue even to accuse the other party.
Gu Xiaotian glanced lightly at this woman who would call herself a mother in the future, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, and the disgust suddenly disappeared. With such a low IQ, she may not have good results in the future if she doesn't need to do it herself.I don't understand why the old lady would want such a stupid woman to be her daughter-in-law, but she should be assigned to such an excellent man as Gu Chen. Maybe she wants to control Gu Chen through her, after all, Gu Chen's behavior is too uncontrollable.Gu Xiaotian thought maliciously.
Liu Ruomei has liked Gu Chen since she was a child, and the old lady has always wanted to match the two, everyone in the room knew it, but Liu Ruomei's words were too exaggerated.In any case, as long as the two of them are not married, she cannot and should not consider herself Gu Chen's wife, even in private. On such an occasion, she said it so grandly, it is really a sign of a young tutor.
The old man frowned, and looked coldly at the red-eyed old lady who was sitting on the side, and was about to speak when Gu Heng, the eldest, stood up with a smile, walked to the center of the room and said, "I said fourth, listen Sister Meimei’s tone, you’ve already talked about marriage with her, so why don’t you tell your brother. Even if you didn’t tell us about it, you wouldn’t discuss it with her about such a big thing as adopting a son. How about making a decision on your own? If you don’t know Xiaotian’s character, we can tell you about it. If you make such a sudden decision, aren’t you afraid that it will affect the harmony of the family after you bring him home?”
Gu Xiaotian glanced at Gu Heng, and sighed inaudibly. A dog can't spit out ivory. It seems that hatred can not only blind people's eyes, but also reduce people's IQ. The old man and Gu Chen have made it clear Attitude, if he said this again, wouldn't he be slapping the face of the father and son?
Sure enough, just after Gu Heng finished speaking, he was looking at Gu Xiaotian triumphantly, when he saw the old man's knife-like eyes piercing towards him. "Bastard, did you talk like that?" The old man stomped his crutches on the ground twice, and Gu Heng felt a dull pain from the bump on his head that he had beaten up earlier, he shrank his neck and took a step back.
His retreat also frightened Gu Haijun who was about to speak, and swallowed all the words that came to his mouth, but his eyes on Gu Xiaotian became complicated.
"You said what kind of magic this kid cast, why everyone in the family is fascinated by him, this fourth child is going to take him to his own house. Our family's bastard also sneaks into his room every day. I just stayed there for a whole day, and I couldn't even shout." Wu Xifeng tilted her head and whispered in Gu Haijun's ear.
"Yeah, look at his current face of being a villain, it's really ugly. Tsk tsk, by the way, the boss's shriveled face is also pretty." Gu Haijun looked at Gu Heng, rubbed his chin and said.
"With the fourth brother covering the boss this time, I can't take revenge this time. Thinking about it, it's cheaper. That kid, the wild species picked up outside suddenly hugged the fourth brother's leg, and now it's the same as our family's Anian and Panpan. Yes, really..." Wu Xifeng sighed regretfully.
"What are you afraid of? Do you think the fourth child in our family is a nosy personality? Besides, who is not good for the adopter to adopt? Do you have to adopt an annoying bastard?"
"Why is that? Could it be that he's really a vixen and can charm people?" Wu Xifeng widened her eyes when she heard this.
"Let me tell you, the relationship between men and men in the army is very messy, [-]% to [-]% of the old also have that problem, although that kid is not cute, but his appearance is not bad..." Realizing that the occasion is not right, Gu Hai Hai hurriedly stopped talking, but because he thought he had mastered Gu Chen's secret before, he got excited and didn't pay attention, and his voice became louder unconsciously, so that Gu Xiaotian who was sitting not far from them could hear him.
Hearing Gu Haijun's words, Gu Xiaotian clenched his hands into fists unconsciously, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.Looking at Gu Chen who was sitting next to him, he found that his face was still cold, as if he hadn't heard anything, and the hand that was clenched into a fist was loosened again. think.
The warm wind blew in, and Gu Chen's deep and magnetic voice rang in Gu Xiaotian's ear, "Leave it to me." After saying this, Gu Chen stood up suddenly, and walked towards Gu Xiaotian with his long legs. Navy walked over.
The room suddenly became silent, the roses with morning dew on the table bloomed with the long-lasting fragrance in midsummer, the only sounds in the room were Gu Chen's steps, the curtains blowing by the breeze, and Gu Xiaotian's own slight breathing Voice.Gu Xiaotian's eyes followed Gu Chen's back motionlessly, that broad back was like a thick city wall, which gave his young body a force of coercion.
Gu Chen grabbed Gu Haijun by the collar with one hand and lifted him from his seat.Gu Haijun screamed strangely, "Fourth brother, what are you doing, ah, let go..."
Gu Chen is about the same height as Gu Haijun, but because of being a soldier, his body is very strong. Compared with Gu Haijun, who has been sitting in an office all year round and has been hollowed out by alcohol, he is much stronger. Looking down like this, he looks like a The mountain was so heavy that Gu Haijun couldn't breathe.
"It seems that I have been away for too long, so long that you feel that you can tell stories at will." The inherent arrogance in his bones, as well as the extraordinary ability that has been shown since he was a child, made Gu Chen never take this brother seriously. inside.
"Fourth Uncle." Gu Pan and Gu Nian stood up in panic.
"Fourth, we're just joking, you can't take it seriously, stop now." Wu Xifeng said tremblingly with a pale complexion.She never forgot the scene of Gu Chen beating Gu Heng until he was covered in wounds ten years ago. Since he was a child, Gu Chen has been the devil in the family, and no one can control him. I didn't expect that it was just hidden deep, and once it broke out, it would still be so terrifying, no, it would be more terrifying than before.
"Fourth, what are you doing? Let go." The old man was also surprised when he saw Gu Chen with a fierce expression on his face.
"Dad, it's okay." While talking, Gu Chen pushed Gu Haijun hard, stared coldly at Gu Haijun's face, and said word by word, "Take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about my affairs. "Release Gu Haijun, Gu Chen looked around at everyone present, and said coldly, "Again, Gu Xiaotian is my son, I don't want to hear any discordant voices."
Gu Xiaotian looked up, and the fun-loving sunlight leaked in through the wide-open window, and the golden sunlight shone on Gu Chen's head. His deep eyes, thin lips, and wheat-colored face all framed his eyes. Layers of hazy light.The god-like man bathed in golden light was walking towards him with firm steps.
Gu Xiaotian squinted his eyes, and wanted to say something, but when he met Gu Chen's eyes, he suddenly didn't want to talk anymore, he would rather just look at him quietly, and greedily enjoy the short but wonderful tenderness at this moment.
That glance was like the blazing sunshine in summer, but in an instant, it awakened the heart that had been buried under the ice and snow for thousands of years, and Gu Xiaotian suddenly understood what it was like to have a heartbeat.
"You go back and clean up first, and move tomorrow." After helping Gu Xiaotian to show his prestige, Gu Chen returned to his previous cold appearance, as if the previous eruption was just an illusion of everyone.
"Okay." Gu Xiaotian nodded obediently, and left first.
Gu Jin also began to prepare for the adoption ceremony.
It is said that because of Gu Chen's current position, the matter of adopting Gu Xiaotian was very low-key. Not only was the ceremony simple, even the relatives did not send invitations, let alone set up wine, only a few members of the family participated.
After finishing this work, Gu Xiaotian was also a little tired. After lunch, he was about to take a nap when he heard someone knocking on the door, "Master, your classmate has come to see you."
Gu Xiaotian opened the door, and a fat man with a shaved head swooped in, lying on the chair, fanning with one hand, and muttering, "It's really hot today, boy, hurry up!" Give me the saliva to drink, and it took me a long time in the car to get here, I’m so hot, I’m about to spit fire from my throat.”
Gu Xiaotian blinked his eyes, was slightly taken aback, and immediately found the relevant memory, knowing that he was the only friend of the original owner, Mi Luo, and immediately asked with a smile, "Drink ice soda or something else?"
"Soda, drink soda, it's the most refreshing to drink ice soda on a hot day." Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mi Luo took the soda handed over by Gu Xiaotian with one hand, and took a big gulp, his expression ecstatic, he was so happy dying.After drinking most of the bottle, Mi Luo let out a full breath and burped loudly, and then he regained his spirits.
"Mi Luo, why are you free today?"
"I'm not worried about you." Mi Luo took another sip of soda, "I heard that you had a fight with Qu Qiushi and was hospitalized, so I wanted to visit you, so I called your home to ask. When they heard that they were looking for you, Just hang up on me, and I can’t find any news about you. I couldn’t sit still today, so I ran over. Who knew that as soon as your name was reported, I didn’t even have to wait, and someone brought me in. gone."
"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. It's all rumored by outsiders." The concern in the other party's eyes can't be faked, and the fat man in his memory is also very good to the original owner. The two have been classmates since elementary school, and this friendship is very good. Deep, Gu Xiaotian knew that this person could be a friend.
"Hey, why don't we say thank you." Rouhuhu waved his hands, and Mi Luo thought for a while and asked, "What happened to the Gu family? Why did you have soda here today, and what else?" , Just yesterday, all the servants in this house directly hung up on my phone, why are they so easy to talk to today?"
"There are a lot of things at home recently, and it's a little messy. For me, the only good thing is that my fourth uncle accepted me as his son today, and I will move out from here tomorrow. It will be convenient for you to find me in the future."
"Amitabha, God has finally opened his eyes, your hard days are coming to an end, and those black-hearted ghosts can finally stop torturing you. By the way, your fourth uncle is a very powerful person. It's only been a while, and these people immediately changed their attitude. It seems that he is not only powerful, but also treats you well. As expected, these servants are hard-working, but luckily my family doesn't have such a complicated relationship." Mi Luo said with a smile, and he could see that he was very happy for Gu Xiaotian.
"Fourth Uncle is indeed very powerful." Thinking of Gu Chen, Gu Xiaotian smiled slightly.
"Ah, by the way, maybe there is a new book out again. I know you might not see it, so I cut it out. There are all of it up to today. Here, you read it first, and remember to return it to me when you finish reading it, but Don't lose it again." As he spoke, he took out a thin notebook from the schoolbag behind him, and there were many clipped newspapers in it.
"Well, definitely not this time." Although he was not as confused as the original owner, Gu Xiaotian was still a little moved when he took the thin notebook from the thick sausage-like hand.
"Xiaotian, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have changed."
"Is there? What's different?" Gu Xiaotian forced a smile and clenched his hands unconsciously.
"Well, I can't really tell, I just feel that you are easier to get along with than before, probably because you were adopted, and then this change happened when you didn't realize it." Mi Luo found an explanation for himself, I didn't think about the other side.
"Well, maybe..."
☆, housewarming
Following the assistant Zhou Xuejun sent by Gu Chen into the house, Gu Xiaotian looked around. The house is about three bedrooms and two living rooms, and the decoration is very good. It is very trendy in this era, and it is obvious that it took a lot of time to design. Thoughtful, just from the moment he came in, Gu Xiaotian had a feeling that there was a lack of human touch in this room.
"Young Master Gu, the room is not big, so I'll take you to get acquainted with it first." After putting Gu Xiaotian's luggage by the wall, Zhou Xuejun said, although his tone was respectful, he was somewhat indifferent.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then." Gu Xiaotian withdrew his scrutiny and nodded with a smile.
Zhou Xuejun pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose a little uncomfortably, and an unknown look flashed in his eyes.
Although he is Gu Chen's assistant, he is also the brother he grew up with. Since he was a child, he often went in and out of Gu's house with Gu Chen. He didn't meet Gu Xiaotian many times, but he heard countless rumors about him. Everyone in the capital knew that the Gu family had a good-for-nothing cousin.
In his impression, Gu Xiaotian showed more low self-esteem and impulsiveness, definitely an existence that had nothing to do with self-confidence and elegance, but today, the person in front of him subverted his usual view of him. He has a sense of amazement.Putting his hand on the handle, the moment he opened the door, he suddenly remembered the scene where he saw the other party fighting with the servants in Gu's house two years ago, Zhou Xuejun smiled coldly, and it turned out that this is an illusion now.
After taking Gu Xiaotian around the house, Zhou Xuejun handed over the key, "This is the key to the house, please keep it, brother Chen will come back after work at night, you can go to the restaurant we saw earlier for lunch at noon , the living expenses have been placed in the drawer of your bedroom desk. Besides, Brother Chen has a cleanliness habit, and he doesn't like anyone to come into the house, so please be careful."
"Okay, I remember them all, thank you for reminding me."
"If there is nothing else, I will go first."
"I'm sorry to trouble you." After closing the door, Gu Xiaotian straightened the hair hanging on his forehead and smiled bitterly.
In his last life, he was surrounded by people with ulterior motives, coupled with his father's deliberate training, this ability of observing words and expressions has long been perfected, and he can be sure when he sees people.Zhou Xuejun doesn't like him this week, he can feel that this superficial respect is due to Gu Chen's relationship, in his heart, he may not think highly of himself.In fact, Gu Chen, who stood up for him yesterday, and Mr. Gu may not really think highly of him. Their concern is more of a responsibility.As for the others, let alone, most of them are waiting to be driven home and watching jokes.
"What's the matter? I want to be a man of the age." Gu Xiaotian cheered himself up, and then began to decorate the new house as happily as possible.
He swiftly moved all the things into the house. Fortunately, he didn't bring many things, so it didn't take much effort to pack them up. It didn't take much time, and everything was packed up.
After being busy for so long, I felt a little hungry. Gu Xiaotian ran to the kitchen and looked around, looking for something to fill his stomach. The refrigerator was empty and there was nothing. The kitchen was the most unpopular place in the whole house. Gu Xiaotian even suspected that Gu During the two days that Chen moved in, did he ever come in?No wonder Zhou Xuejun took him to a place to eat when he drove over in the morning.
The weather was 36 degrees, the sun was strong, and he went out to eat under the sun, only to be exposed to the sun. Gu Xiaotian felt sick all over. He drank a large bowl of sour plum soup in the store, and then he recovered.
While drinking the sour plum soup, Gu Xiaotian had an idea in his mind.
At five or six o'clock, as soon as Gu Chen opened the door, he smelled a faint aroma from the kitchen. The soup pot on the stove was gurgling, and the aroma wafted out continuously along with the turbulence.This scene made him a little surprised, Gu Chen raised his eyebrows thinking that there was an extra person in the family today.
"Godfather, you are back, the food will be ready soon, do you want to drink some sour plum soup to relieve the heat?" Hearing the sound of the door, Gu Xiaotian, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen immediately, only to see Gu Chen loosen his neck buttons, with a little tiredness on his face.
The man didn't answer, but just stood there and looked at Gu Xiaotian quietly. Gu Xiaotian felt uncomfortable all over. Gu Chen's eyes couldn't be said to be warm, and it could even be said that he didn't have any emotion, because he just stood there quietly, looking at him all the time. Not moving at all, like a stone statue carved out of marble, probably because Gu Chen's aura is too strong, there is no need to make unnecessary movements, and speaking unnecessary words will make people feel at a loss.
Gu Xiaotian looked up at the expressionless face of the other party, the smile on his face couldn't hold back, he kept cheering himself up in his heart, young master, I used to be a rich second generation, a big boss, and a successful person, The aura is also very strong, so I am not afraid of you.
"I'm going to serve sour plum soup." Gu Xiaotian finally said, facing the other party's scrutinizing gaze, Gu Xiaotian only felt that his little thoughts were about to be seen through, he really couldn't hold it anymore, subconsciously found an excuse, and fled.
"En." Gu Chen responded lightly, followed Gu Xiaotian's back, and entered the kitchen with a distant expression.
"It's iced, just drink a little bit, otherwise you won't be able to eat in a while." Gu Xiaotian smiled and passed a glass of steaming sour plum soup over, and tentatively warned.
"Yeah." Hearing Gu Xiaotian's words, the man was obviously a little surprised. He was blushing just now like a nervous little white rabbit, but now he is commanding himself lively again, but this feeling is not annoying. On the contrary, he still not bad.Glancing at the expectant boy, Gu Chen's expression softened a lot, and he no longer looked at him like before.
"Then you rest for a while, I'll be fine in a while." The man's reaction was very good, Gu Xiaotian accepted it as soon as he saw it, and it would not take a while to change the man's attitude towards him, but he had plenty of time, thinking of that moment Heartbeat, Gu Xiaotian was full of strength.
Holding a water glass in one hand, Gu Chen walked to the sofa and sat down. The air conditioner was turned on early, and the air-conditioning was very strong. Compared with the outside, the room was refreshingly cool, and the TV screen was shining brightly. Martial arts TV series, the sound is not loud, it can't be said to be noisy.The sofa cushion was unbelievably soft, and even Gu Chen's expression softened a lot.Although there was suddenly one more person in the room, it was not as annoying as expected.
After taking a sip of sour plum soup, Gu Chen gently put the cup on the table, then got up and called Zhou Xuejun, "Hi, Xuejun, it's me, cancel the reservation for Ping An Hotel tonight..."
When Gu Chen said this, his expression was still indifferent, but Zhou Xuejun on the other end of the phone could tell that Gu Chen was in a good mood.In fact, from Zhou Xuejun's point of view, Gu Chen has been in a good mood since he came back this time, but in this good mood, there are some subtle things that he can't figure out.
For so many years, Gu Chen has been like a precise and cold-blooded machine, operating according to the established procedures, and never has a trace of unnecessary movements and emotions, but this time, Zhou Xuejun is sensitive to the subtle ups and downs of his emotions.Just like this machine, from the surface, everything is running normally, but when you look back and think carefully, you will find that small abnormality. Strictly speaking, this small abnormality is not a malfunction, but there is something wrong.
"Do you want someone to bring you dinner?" Zhou Xuejun asked tentatively.
"Okay. Brother, just wait for me that day, I'll be right there." Gu Nian ran out with a swish, and came back with a pile of manuscript papers soon.
"Brother Tian, how is it?" Gu Nian carefully asked the silent Gu Xiaotian, every time Gu Xiaotian read a page, Gu Nian's heart beat wildly, fearing that he would say something bad, repeated this several times, Gu Nian I feel like I'm getting nervous.
"Well, the writing is very good, and the story is very smooth, but, as the publisher said, the arrangement of the story really needs work."
"Hey, I knew it would be like this. This is already the most brilliant story I can come up with. Sure enough, I don't have the life to write articles. Since you have said so, Brother Tian, I will still listen to grandpa in the future, old man. Just go and study economics honestly, I can't go to the Department of Literature." Gu Nian said dejectedly.
"Well, do you have time during this period? If you have time, write a story outline every day for practice. Note that the outline is the plot setting of the story. For example, how to start the chapter, how to set suspense, and how to set the climax, all must be considered. Well, it’s about a thousand words. If I have time, I’ll tell you about it and analyze it by the end of the week.”
"Brother Tian, thank you so much." Gu Nian stood up excitedly, bowed to Gu Xiaotian, and said with reddish eyes, "Brother Tian, they all say you are not good, but in my opinion, you He is the best person in the world. When he gets better, he still does not forget to drive me forward. Brother Tian, from now on you will be my big brother. Just say what you ask me to do. As long as I can do it, I will never shirk it."
Gu Xiaotian was overjoyed, but he didn't show it at all, and said with a smile, "Look at what you said, we are brothers in the first place, and we should help each other. Why do we need to talk about each other as a family."
After sending Gu Nian away, Gu Xiaotian looked at the dark sky outside and thought to himself, and found him in his room. If it wasn't for Gu Nian, I don't know what troubles would happen, there is no place in the Gu family that is safe.
Thinking of the scene when he met Gu Yue and Liu Ruomei in the evening, Gu Xiaotian clenched his hands into fists. These people dared to treat him like this, and in the future, he must pay back double.
☆、Official adoption
"It's time for the little boss next." Gu Xiaotian was thinking about the plot in his heart, and the pen in his hand was moving rapidly. As his ability to control writing became stronger and stronger, the speed of writing became faster and faster.Now that he is writing, there are not as many things that need to be revised as in the beginning. He can write a thousand words in an hour. As for correcting typos and re-transcribing, Gu Nian is left to do it.
On the one hand, Gu Xiaotian was happy for his progress, but on the other hand, he was worried that the speed could not be improved any more.This novel has more than 100 million words. According to the rhythm of [-] words per day, it will take several months to write. He doesn't have so much time to do this.
In the Celestial Dynasty, there has never been a shortage of literati who starved to death. Gu Xiaotian never thought about accumulating original funds by writing books. Even if he did, he completely lost the idea after knowing the level of manuscript fees.Because even if he finished writing "Legend of Feather" with more than 100 million words, according to the current newspaper remuneration standard for newcomers, it is not bad to have 10,000 words and [-] words, and the whole book is only [-]+. The original capital of real estate is far from enough.At most, I will buy a few houses for him to store up, and wait for the demolition and price increase in more than ten years.
It is only serious to find a good real estate project and use Gu Chen's name to find a rich person to invest in.
There must be other ways to increase the speed, Gu Xiaotian dropped the pen, quietly looked at the manuscript paper in front of him, thinking secretly.
"Brother Tian, what's the matter?" Gu Nian, who was sitting across from him, raised his head, and seeing Gu Xiaotian's pensive face, couldn't help asking.
"It's okay, I'm thinking about the plot." Gu Xiaotian waved his hand, indicating that he should not worry about himself.
"Well, brother Tian, look at this place, I think we can add some descriptive words to it to show Wang Shilong's vicious image, so that the article will have more words." After getting along with Gu Xiaotian for a long time, Gu Nian was not as blushing as she was at the beginning, and even occasionally suggested some revisions of her own in the process of transcribing.
"Well, you can figure it out. As long as this kind of thing doesn't involve the plot, or delete some content, you can make up your own mind." Gu Xiaotian waved his hand casually.
He already felt that time was tight, and what he wrote was not a literary masterpiece, but a fast food novel, and readers would not read it carefully. There was no need to ask himself such insignificant matters, but Gu Nian's attitude was too serious , who is very devout to literature, who came to help him as an idol, he had no other thoughts at all, did a lot of work without a penny, and was more responsible than professional help, Gu Xiaotian was too embarrassed to speak.
Gu Xiaotian looked at the manuscript in front of him and thought to himself, if the writing speed cannot be increased, how can we increase the writing speed again?Or reduce the time spent on writing each plot without affecting Gu Nian's side. Thinking of this, Gu Xiaotian had an idea in his heart, and finally a smile appeared on his face.
"Ah Nian, if I simplify the description, for example, for a scene that originally took [-] words to describe, I only use [-] words to write it, but I will write the whole plot, can you enrich the details? "Gu Xiaotian asked.
"Brother Tian, are you saying that you want to give me more room for creativity?" Gu Nian stood up with a face full of joy, and his eyes were shining brightly.It must be Brother Tian who sees that I always like to give opinions and wants to give me a greater opportunity to exercise. If I can enrich this story under the guidance of Brother Tian, my writing level will definitely be improved even more. Brother Tian It was too good for me.Gu Nian thought to himself.
Gu Xiaotian didn't expect him to have such a big reaction, and he was taken aback, but this misunderstanding is not a bad thing, anyway, what he wants is to write the story faster so that he can free up his hands to do other things.
"Well, are you willing to help me with this work? This may take a little more effort than simply fixing typos before, but it will be of great help to improve your writing level. And wait for this story later It has been serialized, and I can pay you part of the remuneration."
Gu Nian nodded vigorously, "Enen, I am willing, Brother Tian, you are so kind to me, you don't need to give me the money, I have a lot of pocket money, you can keep it for yourself."
"Well, you can help me transcribe the previous ones first, and then I need you to help expand the later ones. It's about a rhythm of [-] words and [-] words."
After that, Gu Xiaotian handed over the first abbreviated draft, and Gu Nian took almost the same time as usual to transcribe it and expand it a lot.
Gu Xiaotian's speed here is much faster than usual, especially since he himself is better at writing outlines, his speed has improved a lot.
And Gu Nian looked at the outline written by Gu Xiaotian, his eyes were filled with amazement, the simplified version of the story can be so exciting, Tian Ge can come up with so many good-looking stories, he is definitely a genius, as expected, he has the hope of surpassing Mo Fei.
"Okay, Ah Nian, it's time to rest. Let's write tomorrow. You have worked hard today." Gu Xiaotian, who has been writing for a day, has a tired face, but he is also very excited. At this speed, he can finish this job faster It's a novel, and even later, he can directly write the outline and let Gu Nian write it, and he can free up his hands to do other things.
The smiling Gu Xiaotian was not at all ashamed of his actions, and happily hummed a song and went out for a run.
Thanks to his persistence in exercising, even if he has to sit and write manuscripts for a long time every day, after these days, he will not feel particularly tired, and he has even gradually gotten used to this kind of intense work.The only regret is that even though he tried his best to bask in the sun, his skin was not tanned to that beautiful bronze color, it was still as fair as a woman's.
Early the next morning, Gu Xiaotian, who came back from a morning run, was about to go to the restaurant for breakfast, when he saw Gu Nian approaching him with a mysterious face, looked around and sneakily said to him, "Brother Tian, there is good news, I went back last night When I was sleeping, I heard my grandma crying to someone in the room, saying that my fourth uncle wanted to adopt you as my son, and my grandfather agreed, and I will announce the news today. If you can become the son of my fourth uncle, no one in the family will dare Bullied you."
Gu Xiaotian was about to answer, but Gu Nian rolled his eyes and said again, "No, Grandpa and the others must have discussed this matter with you, Brother Tian, did you already know? It's not right, we are talking about it every day these days One piece, they have no chance to find you at all. How, how, brother Tian, are you happy?"
Gu Xiaotian listened to him talking to himself for a while, but he didn't dislike it, and said with a smile, "Yes. Thank you for telling me such good news. Alright, let's go have breakfast."
After breakfast, the old man took a sip of boiling hot tea, looked at everyone present, stood up and said, "Today I have good news to announce to everyone, the fourth brother plans to adopt Xiaotian. We have completed the formalities. Xiaotian is the fourth son's son, my own grandson."
Hearing the old man's words, all the people present showed a look of surprise on their faces, they couldn't help whispering to each other, the small voices in the room kept talking, and the eyes they looked at Gu Xiaotian were quite complicated.
"What? I don't agree." Liu Ruomei shouted out loudly, different from the small voices of the crowd.
The old man's face darkened. This Liu Ruomei is just a relative of the old lady's natal family. Even if the old lady spoils her, she is still an outsider. At this time, there is no room for her to express her opinion. Besides, this is a family matter of the Gu family. Why should she An outsider objected.Therefore, she was quite dissatisfied with Liu Ruomei, and said coldly, "What I'm telling you today is the result, I'm not here to ask for your opinions, to discuss with you."
"Well, I just don't think Gu Xiaotian is worthy of being my fourth cousin's son. Uncle, even though you love Xiaotian, you can't go against your fourth cousin's wishes and force someone into him." Although when I said this to Gu Xinguo, Liu Ruomei was a little apprehensive, but thinking that she was going to marry Gu Chen in the future, in order not to let this shameless thing be her son, she had to fight for it no matter what.After speaking, he turned his big watery eyes to look at the old lady.
Seeing her like this, a mocking smile appeared on Gu Yue's face, this Liu Ruomei really has a long face but not a brain.Although the old man doesn't care about the affairs of the back house, it's not the old lady who is in charge of the house, but the old man. The old man has spoken, how much room can the old lady have to speak, look at the red and swollen eyes of the old lady, it's probably because yesterday Knowing the result, how could it be possible to rely on her to change this matter.It's a pity that Liu Ruomei didn't understand this truth.
The old lady was about to speak when Gu Chen stood up suddenly.
Liu Ruomei was still immersed in the dream that she would become Gu Chen's wife, she was very contented, and looked at Gu Chen who was walking towards her with a sweet smile on her face.
"Fourth cousin..." After Liu Ruomei shouted this, the smile on her face froze, she watched Gu Chen pass her, strode to Gu Xiaotian's side, and pulled Gu Xiaotian up.
Gu Xiaotian:?
"From today onwards, Gu Xiaotian is my son, Gu Chen." The man put his arm around Gu Xiaotian's shoulders, looked around and said to everyone present, he didn't say the following words, but everyone knew that he was warning, warning everyone not to To torture him.Gu Chen's voice was young and full of strength, with a bit of irresistible force.
The moment he was hugged, Gu Xiaotian only felt that he was surrounded by a strange and powerful breath, his body seemed to be out of control, and became extremely stiff, his face was very hot, and his heart was beating wildly. My mind was also blank.
Aware of his stiffness, Gu Chen lowered his head to look at the people around him after saying that, and Gu Xiaotian also raised his head when he noticed his gaze.After that, Gu Xiaotian felt that his heartbeat was about to stop, and his pupils shrank slightly—Gu Chen was so handsome when he saw him up close.
Because he just came back from the army, Gu Chen's hair was cut very short, but it didn't affect his handsomeness at all, and even added a bit of masculinity.Those two thick eyebrows are like sharp swords flying into the temples, a pair of black shiny eyes are like obsidian stained with morning dew, the bridge of the nose is high, and the outline is deep, like a legendary god, which makes Gu Xiaotian have a An urge to worship.
"From now on, I will protect your life." Gu Chen looked at Gu Xiaotian's face and said seriously.
☆、Gu Shaoliwei
"Fourth cousin, I don't want you to have a son who is not a few years younger than me before you are married to me. I don't want to be a stepmother." Liu Ruomei looked at Gu Chen, who was dressed in casual clothes and handsome, with eyes full of resentment, sobbing Sobbing and crying.
Facing Gu Chen's black jewel-like eyes, Liu Ruomei was stunned, looking at him greedily, even the people present didn't notice that they frowned because of her words.
Gu Chen took a look at this self-confident cousin, and then refocused on the people around him. His indifferent attitude seemed to be a waste of tongue even to accuse the other party.
Gu Xiaotian glanced lightly at this woman who would call herself a mother in the future, a trace of pity flashed in her eyes, and the disgust suddenly disappeared. With such a low IQ, she may not have good results in the future if she doesn't need to do it herself.I don't understand why the old lady would want such a stupid woman to be her daughter-in-law, but she should be assigned to such an excellent man as Gu Chen. Maybe she wants to control Gu Chen through her, after all, Gu Chen's behavior is too uncontrollable.Gu Xiaotian thought maliciously.
Liu Ruomei has liked Gu Chen since she was a child, and the old lady has always wanted to match the two, everyone in the room knew it, but Liu Ruomei's words were too exaggerated.In any case, as long as the two of them are not married, she cannot and should not consider herself Gu Chen's wife, even in private. On such an occasion, she said it so grandly, it is really a sign of a young tutor.
The old man frowned, and looked coldly at the red-eyed old lady who was sitting on the side, and was about to speak when Gu Heng, the eldest, stood up with a smile, walked to the center of the room and said, "I said fourth, listen Sister Meimei’s tone, you’ve already talked about marriage with her, so why don’t you tell your brother. Even if you didn’t tell us about it, you wouldn’t discuss it with her about such a big thing as adopting a son. How about making a decision on your own? If you don’t know Xiaotian’s character, we can tell you about it. If you make such a sudden decision, aren’t you afraid that it will affect the harmony of the family after you bring him home?”
Gu Xiaotian glanced at Gu Heng, and sighed inaudibly. A dog can't spit out ivory. It seems that hatred can not only blind people's eyes, but also reduce people's IQ. The old man and Gu Chen have made it clear Attitude, if he said this again, wouldn't he be slapping the face of the father and son?
Sure enough, just after Gu Heng finished speaking, he was looking at Gu Xiaotian triumphantly, when he saw the old man's knife-like eyes piercing towards him. "Bastard, did you talk like that?" The old man stomped his crutches on the ground twice, and Gu Heng felt a dull pain from the bump on his head that he had beaten up earlier, he shrank his neck and took a step back.
His retreat also frightened Gu Haijun who was about to speak, and swallowed all the words that came to his mouth, but his eyes on Gu Xiaotian became complicated.
"You said what kind of magic this kid cast, why everyone in the family is fascinated by him, this fourth child is going to take him to his own house. Our family's bastard also sneaks into his room every day. I just stayed there for a whole day, and I couldn't even shout." Wu Xifeng tilted her head and whispered in Gu Haijun's ear.
"Yeah, look at his current face of being a villain, it's really ugly. Tsk tsk, by the way, the boss's shriveled face is also pretty." Gu Haijun looked at Gu Heng, rubbed his chin and said.
"With the fourth brother covering the boss this time, I can't take revenge this time. Thinking about it, it's cheaper. That kid, the wild species picked up outside suddenly hugged the fourth brother's leg, and now it's the same as our family's Anian and Panpan. Yes, really..." Wu Xifeng sighed regretfully.
"What are you afraid of? Do you think the fourth child in our family is a nosy personality? Besides, who is not good for the adopter to adopt? Do you have to adopt an annoying bastard?"
"Why is that? Could it be that he's really a vixen and can charm people?" Wu Xifeng widened her eyes when she heard this.
"Let me tell you, the relationship between men and men in the army is very messy, [-]% to [-]% of the old also have that problem, although that kid is not cute, but his appearance is not bad..." Realizing that the occasion is not right, Gu Hai Hai hurriedly stopped talking, but because he thought he had mastered Gu Chen's secret before, he got excited and didn't pay attention, and his voice became louder unconsciously, so that Gu Xiaotian who was sitting not far from them could hear him.
Hearing Gu Haijun's words, Gu Xiaotian clenched his hands into fists unconsciously, his face as dark as the bottom of a pot.Looking at Gu Chen who was sitting next to him, he found that his face was still cold, as if he hadn't heard anything, and the hand that was clenched into a fist was loosened again. think.
The warm wind blew in, and Gu Chen's deep and magnetic voice rang in Gu Xiaotian's ear, "Leave it to me." After saying this, Gu Chen stood up suddenly, and walked towards Gu Xiaotian with his long legs. Navy walked over.
The room suddenly became silent, the roses with morning dew on the table bloomed with the long-lasting fragrance in midsummer, the only sounds in the room were Gu Chen's steps, the curtains blowing by the breeze, and Gu Xiaotian's own slight breathing Voice.Gu Xiaotian's eyes followed Gu Chen's back motionlessly, that broad back was like a thick city wall, which gave his young body a force of coercion.
Gu Chen grabbed Gu Haijun by the collar with one hand and lifted him from his seat.Gu Haijun screamed strangely, "Fourth brother, what are you doing, ah, let go..."
Gu Chen is about the same height as Gu Haijun, but because of being a soldier, his body is very strong. Compared with Gu Haijun, who has been sitting in an office all year round and has been hollowed out by alcohol, he is much stronger. Looking down like this, he looks like a The mountain was so heavy that Gu Haijun couldn't breathe.
"It seems that I have been away for too long, so long that you feel that you can tell stories at will." The inherent arrogance in his bones, as well as the extraordinary ability that has been shown since he was a child, made Gu Chen never take this brother seriously. inside.
"Fourth Uncle." Gu Pan and Gu Nian stood up in panic.
"Fourth, we're just joking, you can't take it seriously, stop now." Wu Xifeng said tremblingly with a pale complexion.She never forgot the scene of Gu Chen beating Gu Heng until he was covered in wounds ten years ago. Since he was a child, Gu Chen has been the devil in the family, and no one can control him. I didn't expect that it was just hidden deep, and once it broke out, it would still be so terrifying, no, it would be more terrifying than before.
"Fourth, what are you doing? Let go." The old man was also surprised when he saw Gu Chen with a fierce expression on his face.
"Dad, it's okay." While talking, Gu Chen pushed Gu Haijun hard, stared coldly at Gu Haijun's face, and said word by word, "Take care of yourself, you don't have to worry about my affairs. "Release Gu Haijun, Gu Chen looked around at everyone present, and said coldly, "Again, Gu Xiaotian is my son, I don't want to hear any discordant voices."
Gu Xiaotian looked up, and the fun-loving sunlight leaked in through the wide-open window, and the golden sunlight shone on Gu Chen's head. His deep eyes, thin lips, and wheat-colored face all framed his eyes. Layers of hazy light.The god-like man bathed in golden light was walking towards him with firm steps.
Gu Xiaotian squinted his eyes, and wanted to say something, but when he met Gu Chen's eyes, he suddenly didn't want to talk anymore, he would rather just look at him quietly, and greedily enjoy the short but wonderful tenderness at this moment.
That glance was like the blazing sunshine in summer, but in an instant, it awakened the heart that had been buried under the ice and snow for thousands of years, and Gu Xiaotian suddenly understood what it was like to have a heartbeat.
"You go back and clean up first, and move tomorrow." After helping Gu Xiaotian to show his prestige, Gu Chen returned to his previous cold appearance, as if the previous eruption was just an illusion of everyone.
"Okay." Gu Xiaotian nodded obediently, and left first.
Gu Jin also began to prepare for the adoption ceremony.
It is said that because of Gu Chen's current position, the matter of adopting Gu Xiaotian was very low-key. Not only was the ceremony simple, even the relatives did not send invitations, let alone set up wine, only a few members of the family participated.
After finishing this work, Gu Xiaotian was also a little tired. After lunch, he was about to take a nap when he heard someone knocking on the door, "Master, your classmate has come to see you."
Gu Xiaotian opened the door, and a fat man with a shaved head swooped in, lying on the chair, fanning with one hand, and muttering, "It's really hot today, boy, hurry up!" Give me the saliva to drink, and it took me a long time in the car to get here, I’m so hot, I’m about to spit fire from my throat.”
Gu Xiaotian blinked his eyes, was slightly taken aback, and immediately found the relevant memory, knowing that he was the only friend of the original owner, Mi Luo, and immediately asked with a smile, "Drink ice soda or something else?"
"Soda, drink soda, it's the most refreshing to drink ice soda on a hot day." Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Mi Luo took the soda handed over by Gu Xiaotian with one hand, and took a big gulp, his expression ecstatic, he was so happy dying.After drinking most of the bottle, Mi Luo let out a full breath and burped loudly, and then he regained his spirits.
"Mi Luo, why are you free today?"
"I'm not worried about you." Mi Luo took another sip of soda, "I heard that you had a fight with Qu Qiushi and was hospitalized, so I wanted to visit you, so I called your home to ask. When they heard that they were looking for you, Just hang up on me, and I can’t find any news about you. I couldn’t sit still today, so I ran over. Who knew that as soon as your name was reported, I didn’t even have to wait, and someone brought me in. gone."
"Thank you for your concern. I'm fine. It's all rumored by outsiders." The concern in the other party's eyes can't be faked, and the fat man in his memory is also very good to the original owner. The two have been classmates since elementary school, and this friendship is very good. Deep, Gu Xiaotian knew that this person could be a friend.
"Hey, why don't we say thank you." Rouhuhu waved his hands, and Mi Luo thought for a while and asked, "What happened to the Gu family? Why did you have soda here today, and what else?" , Just yesterday, all the servants in this house directly hung up on my phone, why are they so easy to talk to today?"
"There are a lot of things at home recently, and it's a little messy. For me, the only good thing is that my fourth uncle accepted me as his son today, and I will move out from here tomorrow. It will be convenient for you to find me in the future."
"Amitabha, God has finally opened his eyes, your hard days are coming to an end, and those black-hearted ghosts can finally stop torturing you. By the way, your fourth uncle is a very powerful person. It's only been a while, and these people immediately changed their attitude. It seems that he is not only powerful, but also treats you well. As expected, these servants are hard-working, but luckily my family doesn't have such a complicated relationship." Mi Luo said with a smile, and he could see that he was very happy for Gu Xiaotian.
"Fourth Uncle is indeed very powerful." Thinking of Gu Chen, Gu Xiaotian smiled slightly.
"Ah, by the way, maybe there is a new book out again. I know you might not see it, so I cut it out. There are all of it up to today. Here, you read it first, and remember to return it to me when you finish reading it, but Don't lose it again." As he spoke, he took out a thin notebook from the schoolbag behind him, and there were many clipped newspapers in it.
"Well, definitely not this time." Although he was not as confused as the original owner, Gu Xiaotian was still a little moved when he took the thin notebook from the thick sausage-like hand.
"Xiaotian, I haven't seen you for a few days, and you have changed."
"Is there? What's different?" Gu Xiaotian forced a smile and clenched his hands unconsciously.
"Well, I can't really tell, I just feel that you are easier to get along with than before, probably because you were adopted, and then this change happened when you didn't realize it." Mi Luo found an explanation for himself, I didn't think about the other side.
"Well, maybe..."
☆, housewarming
Following the assistant Zhou Xuejun sent by Gu Chen into the house, Gu Xiaotian looked around. The house is about three bedrooms and two living rooms, and the decoration is very good. It is very trendy in this era, and it is obvious that it took a lot of time to design. Thoughtful, just from the moment he came in, Gu Xiaotian had a feeling that there was a lack of human touch in this room.
"Young Master Gu, the room is not big, so I'll take you to get acquainted with it first." After putting Gu Xiaotian's luggage by the wall, Zhou Xuejun said, although his tone was respectful, he was somewhat indifferent.
"Okay, I'll trouble you then." Gu Xiaotian withdrew his scrutiny and nodded with a smile.
Zhou Xuejun pushed the gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose a little uncomfortably, and an unknown look flashed in his eyes.
Although he is Gu Chen's assistant, he is also the brother he grew up with. Since he was a child, he often went in and out of Gu's house with Gu Chen. He didn't meet Gu Xiaotian many times, but he heard countless rumors about him. Everyone in the capital knew that the Gu family had a good-for-nothing cousin.
In his impression, Gu Xiaotian showed more low self-esteem and impulsiveness, definitely an existence that had nothing to do with self-confidence and elegance, but today, the person in front of him subverted his usual view of him. He has a sense of amazement.Putting his hand on the handle, the moment he opened the door, he suddenly remembered the scene where he saw the other party fighting with the servants in Gu's house two years ago, Zhou Xuejun smiled coldly, and it turned out that this is an illusion now.
After taking Gu Xiaotian around the house, Zhou Xuejun handed over the key, "This is the key to the house, please keep it, brother Chen will come back after work at night, you can go to the restaurant we saw earlier for lunch at noon , the living expenses have been placed in the drawer of your bedroom desk. Besides, Brother Chen has a cleanliness habit, and he doesn't like anyone to come into the house, so please be careful."
"Okay, I remember them all, thank you for reminding me."
"If there is nothing else, I will go first."
"I'm sorry to trouble you." After closing the door, Gu Xiaotian straightened the hair hanging on his forehead and smiled bitterly.
In his last life, he was surrounded by people with ulterior motives, coupled with his father's deliberate training, this ability of observing words and expressions has long been perfected, and he can be sure when he sees people.Zhou Xuejun doesn't like him this week, he can feel that this superficial respect is due to Gu Chen's relationship, in his heart, he may not think highly of himself.In fact, Gu Chen, who stood up for him yesterday, and Mr. Gu may not really think highly of him. Their concern is more of a responsibility.As for the others, let alone, most of them are waiting to be driven home and watching jokes.
"What's the matter? I want to be a man of the age." Gu Xiaotian cheered himself up, and then began to decorate the new house as happily as possible.
He swiftly moved all the things into the house. Fortunately, he didn't bring many things, so it didn't take much effort to pack them up. It didn't take much time, and everything was packed up.
After being busy for so long, I felt a little hungry. Gu Xiaotian ran to the kitchen and looked around, looking for something to fill his stomach. The refrigerator was empty and there was nothing. The kitchen was the most unpopular place in the whole house. Gu Xiaotian even suspected that Gu During the two days that Chen moved in, did he ever come in?No wonder Zhou Xuejun took him to a place to eat when he drove over in the morning.
The weather was 36 degrees, the sun was strong, and he went out to eat under the sun, only to be exposed to the sun. Gu Xiaotian felt sick all over. He drank a large bowl of sour plum soup in the store, and then he recovered.
While drinking the sour plum soup, Gu Xiaotian had an idea in his mind.
At five or six o'clock, as soon as Gu Chen opened the door, he smelled a faint aroma from the kitchen. The soup pot on the stove was gurgling, and the aroma wafted out continuously along with the turbulence.This scene made him a little surprised, Gu Chen raised his eyebrows thinking that there was an extra person in the family today.
"Godfather, you are back, the food will be ready soon, do you want to drink some sour plum soup to relieve the heat?" Hearing the sound of the door, Gu Xiaotian, wearing an apron, came out of the kitchen immediately, only to see Gu Chen loosen his neck buttons, with a little tiredness on his face.
The man didn't answer, but just stood there and looked at Gu Xiaotian quietly. Gu Xiaotian felt uncomfortable all over. Gu Chen's eyes couldn't be said to be warm, and it could even be said that he didn't have any emotion, because he just stood there quietly, looking at him all the time. Not moving at all, like a stone statue carved out of marble, probably because Gu Chen's aura is too strong, there is no need to make unnecessary movements, and speaking unnecessary words will make people feel at a loss.
Gu Xiaotian looked up at the expressionless face of the other party, the smile on his face couldn't hold back, he kept cheering himself up in his heart, young master, I used to be a rich second generation, a big boss, and a successful person, The aura is also very strong, so I am not afraid of you.
"I'm going to serve sour plum soup." Gu Xiaotian finally said, facing the other party's scrutinizing gaze, Gu Xiaotian only felt that his little thoughts were about to be seen through, he really couldn't hold it anymore, subconsciously found an excuse, and fled.
"En." Gu Chen responded lightly, followed Gu Xiaotian's back, and entered the kitchen with a distant expression.
"It's iced, just drink a little bit, otherwise you won't be able to eat in a while." Gu Xiaotian smiled and passed a glass of steaming sour plum soup over, and tentatively warned.
"Yeah." Hearing Gu Xiaotian's words, the man was obviously a little surprised. He was blushing just now like a nervous little white rabbit, but now he is commanding himself lively again, but this feeling is not annoying. On the contrary, he still not bad.Glancing at the expectant boy, Gu Chen's expression softened a lot, and he no longer looked at him like before.
"Then you rest for a while, I'll be fine in a while." The man's reaction was very good, Gu Xiaotian accepted it as soon as he saw it, and it would not take a while to change the man's attitude towards him, but he had plenty of time, thinking of that moment Heartbeat, Gu Xiaotian was full of strength.
Holding a water glass in one hand, Gu Chen walked to the sofa and sat down. The air conditioner was turned on early, and the air-conditioning was very strong. Compared with the outside, the room was refreshingly cool, and the TV screen was shining brightly. Martial arts TV series, the sound is not loud, it can't be said to be noisy.The sofa cushion was unbelievably soft, and even Gu Chen's expression softened a lot.Although there was suddenly one more person in the room, it was not as annoying as expected.
After taking a sip of sour plum soup, Gu Chen gently put the cup on the table, then got up and called Zhou Xuejun, "Hi, Xuejun, it's me, cancel the reservation for Ping An Hotel tonight..."
When Gu Chen said this, his expression was still indifferent, but Zhou Xuejun on the other end of the phone could tell that Gu Chen was in a good mood.In fact, from Zhou Xuejun's point of view, Gu Chen has been in a good mood since he came back this time, but in this good mood, there are some subtle things that he can't figure out.
For so many years, Gu Chen has been like a precise and cold-blooded machine, operating according to the established procedures, and never has a trace of unnecessary movements and emotions, but this time, Zhou Xuejun is sensitive to the subtle ups and downs of his emotions.Just like this machine, from the surface, everything is running normally, but when you look back and think carefully, you will find that small abnormality. Strictly speaking, this small abnormality is not a malfunction, but there is something wrong.
"Do you want someone to bring you dinner?" Zhou Xuejun asked tentatively.
