brightest star in the sky

"Knowing that I am still a child at heart, I like to play with these things."

Lu Chenxing reflected on this sentence, and it seemed that the amount of information was quite large.

Lu Chenxing has always known Gu Ran's childlike innocence. In the past, there were countless animation figures, game figures, and posters in his home. Lego and Gundam were also his favorites. I just read books and watched movies at Gu Ran's house, and he just fiddled with these things in the room for a whole day.

I was really tired of building, so I came to myself to act like a baby, saying that I was going to be blind, and my hands were going to be useless. .

To say that I "knew he was still a child at heart" is to prove that he has not forgotten those things in the past.

And saying that he "likes to play these things" means that he still likes it now.

Then... I didn't send it wrong?

Lu Chenxing felt relieved and heaved a sigh of relief, this gift should be the right one!

Lu Chenxing suddenly noticed that Gu Ran and Ma Jikang were looking at him, and then realized that everyone seemed to be waiting for his answer, but he suddenly didn't know what to say.

Say yeah, I knew it all along?

Or laugh twice?

"Kangkang."

At this time, a person came from the living room next to him, breaking the awkward atmosphere.

Lu Chenxing: This voice, this name, is very familiar!

This is called your own boss, Ma Jikang?

Looking at the boss's face again, he suddenly became cold, with a disgusted look on his face.

When that person approached, Lu Chenxing realized that he was also a familiar person, although he didn't know him.

That night, I "peeped" Gu Ran at the "Star" bar. This person was the one who came with Gu Ran, and they were still sitting together talking and laughing.

In fact, I was far away at that time, and I didn't see the person's appearance clearly, but I still had an impression of the way the person walked and the outline of the face, especially those two long legs, walking with Gu Ran, it was very eye-catching .After all, he seemed to be quite close to Gu Ran at that time, so he took a few glances.

"Kangkang, why don't you introduce me?"

The man stood beside Gu Ran, taller than Gu Ran, and said to Ma Jikang with a smile.

"Lu Chenxing, the technical director of our company's animation department." Ma Jikang was obviously displeased.

"Mr. Lu."

The other party nodded to Lu Chenxing, then smiled and waited for Ma Jikang to introduce himself.

Then, Lu Chenxing only heard two words from the boss.

"Zou Yue."

Lu Chenxing: Is this the end?How much does the boss hate seeing this person? !

Looking at the other party again, there was still a smile on his face.

Gu Ran found that when this person smiled, his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Gu Ran's, with the same curved peach blossom eyes. The difference was that Gu Ran looked gentle and affectionate, but the corners of this person's eyes were slightly raised, and he looked like he had a bad stomach...

Wait... Zou Yue?Isn't that... the old partner of the boss?

I have heard of this name more than once in the company. I had a falling out with my boss back then, and led the elite of the technical department to set up my own company.

How is he here?

What is his relationship with Gu Ran?

Obviously, this is not the right time to ask these questions.

The question is, what do I call him?

His boss looked unhappy, so Lu Chenxing could only play freely.

"Mr. Zou? Hello!"

"Okay, the greetings are over, let's go outside first, the food is almost ready."

This embarrassing introduction ended in Gu Ran's mouth, and everyone prepared to go to the yard, and several people who were originally in the living room also came out.

"Come on, Kangkang, let's go outside."

Zou Yue probably wanted to put his hand on Ma Jikang's shoulder, but was blocked by the other side's eyes.

For the first time, Lu Chenxing felt that his boss looked like a proud big white cat, and that Zou Yue was a wolf with a big tail behind him.

Everyone went out, Lu Chenxing wanted to be with Gu Ran, but Gu Ran seemed to go upstairs to put presents first, so he stood there and waited for him for a while.

It didn't take long for Gu Ran to come down, but instead of walking towards him, he returned to the kitchen, beside the foreigner.

"Vincent, the steak is ready, take it out for me!"

He can actually speak Chinese, and he speaks it quite well. Although he still has an accent, at least he can be understood clearly.

"it is good!"

"You don't like to eat a little bit of blood. This piece is already half-rare, and it's specially fried for you. Take it yourself, don't make a mistake."

. . .

so intimate!It was specially prepared for Gu Ran alone!

Lu Chenxing was jealous.

What kindness is there?

And you're not the only one who knows that Gu Ran likes to eat well-done steaks!

Doesn't this just prove that Gu Ran is not used to your foreigners' life and your food, he will not want to find a foreigner as a boyfriend!

From Lu Chenxing's point of view, the blond-haired foreigner is really good looking. Last time he just took a look at him, he looked like the prince charming in a fairy tale. He was tall and handsome. Now that he was wearing an apron, he seemed like a perfect male god.

No, I have to do something myself!

So, Lu Chenxing walked over with his head raised and his chest held high.

"Need help? I'll take it out for you!"

Gu Ran was obviously a little surprised, but Lu Chenxing saw it, but kept his expression on.

That's right!Today I am not the one I used to just stand behind and not want to be noticed by anyone, now I just want to show my presence in front of you!

Under Gu Ran's introduction, Lu Chenxing knew that the foreigner's name was Elio, which had the same name as the male protagonist in "Summer Finale".

Fortunately, Gu Ran's name is not Oliver!

Lu Chenxing thought sourly.

I have to say that this foreigner's craftsmanship is pretty good, not only the steak is fried like that, but the cocktail is also made decently.

It made Lu Chenxing want to go back and buy a Western food cookbook and study it carefully.

Most of the people who came to celebrate Gu Ran's birthday today were colleagues from his company, and there were also some business partners of Party A and Party B.

The barbecue pit was very lively, men and women gathered around there, and waves of skewers were served on the table one after another.

Zou Yue had already placed a pile of food in front of Ma Jikang, such as grilled sausages, grilled chicken wings, grilled enoki mushrooms... and now he brought grilled pineapples.

"I don't like grilled pineapple, it's so sour!"

"Then I'll get you some fresh fruit. What do you want to eat? I see bananas, mangosteens, melons, and oranges there."

"whatever!"

Lu Chenxing: . . .No, boss, when did you become a tsundere little princess who needs to be served?

After hearing such a conversation, Lu Chenxing, who was sitting next to Ma Jikang, completely overturned his perception of the image of the boss!

Since I was sitting next to the boss, I almost didn't need to get food by myself. There was a lot of food in front of me, and I was almost full.

Originally thought that Zou Yue was a treacherous and evil person, involved in most of the company that the boss had worked so hard to establish, but he didn't expect that he was the character who was called by Ma Jikang and left when he waved. Is it because he felt ashamed?Or is it because you want to ask him for something?

Or is there something hidden about the events back then... Of course, Lu Chenxing is not a gossip character, no matter what, it is the "love-hate relationship" of the company's leaders, and has nothing to do with him.

Looking at Zou Yue's appearance, he was obviously a cold and elite image of the industry, but he was circling around Ma Jikang like a hardworking bee. Lu Chenxing felt a little hot-eyed, and wished he could change seats so as not to be tortured anymore.

Gu Ran sat diagonally across from him, two seats away, talking and laughing, eating and drinking with that Elio all the time, he had already finished the medium rare steak, and drank some cocktails and some fruit salad.

Someone brought him some skewers before, and he barely moved. Lu Chenxing remembered that Gu Ran liked to eat barbecue in the past. When he was in college, he often invited himself and a few friends to a nearby barbecue restaurant for supper.

In the hot summer, he said that his life was given by the air conditioner + barbecue + cold beer. In winter, he said that the barbecue + hot pot + Lu Chenxing was his electric heater to keep him warm.

Remembering what Gu Ran said at that time, Lu Chenxing curled his mouth.

In spring and autumn, the weather is pleasant, and Gu Ran is also a good at the bi-annual barbecue activities in the forest park with friends. Baked it myself.

Barbecue is the same as hot pot. Eating with family and friends is fun, and eating with your lover is fun. You eat half of a skewer of meat and I eat half of it. A skewer of chicken wings, you eat one, I eat one, not to mention The silky, tangled Flammulina velutipes, grilled eggplant.

After parting from Gu Ran, I never ate barbecue again, but I ate it today, and Gu Ran was there, but I didn't have the chance to share it with him.And he never touched it.
