blockhouse

Gu Zhong didn't know when Qi Yue saw his trousers...but he just changed these trousers today, and the range of movement today is between the school and the blockhouse.

The two of them were injured that day, and Qi Yue drove him to a third-class hospital quite far away. He had to take a bus and reverse the car to change his medicine. Unexpectedly, he didn't choose a place to be hospitalized. There was only one nearby. Say you don't even notice, basically no one goes.

Gu Zhong felt that he was very excited when he walked into the hospital, but he couldn't explain why.

Maybe it's a long absence... a reunion?It may also be that it suddenly occurred to Qi Yue that the reason why Qi Yue was hospitalized here might be that the injury was too serious and too sudden, and he didn't have time to live far away to send him off.

It is a happy thing that there are few people in the hospital, and it will soon be possible to find out which ward Qi Yue lives in.

Gu Zhong stopped when he was about to enter the ward with big strides, he hesitated for a moment, turned around and walked back to the elevator.

While walking, I took out my wallet. I was so excited that I came up empty-handed. I had to buy a bunch of flowers anyway.What kind of flowers should I buy?Carnations?Gypsophila?morning glory?

Peony...ah──Peony, you have one more ring than the fourth ring...

Gu Zhong shook his head and threw the Song of the Five Rings out, frowning, there were only so many flowers in his mind, and he didn't know which one was suitable. If he was hospitalized, what flowers would Qi Yue bring?

That unreliable psychopath might get a bouquet of chrysanthemums!

"Hey!" Someone called out from behind, "Young man, where are you going?"

Gu Zhong was stunned for a moment, then turned around to see Qi Yue leaning against the door of the ward, wearing a hospital gown, smoking a cigarette.

Before he could answer, a nurse frowned and pointed at Qi Yue: "Bed 36! I told you not to smoke! Why are you still smoking!"

"I'll hold it for a while." Qi Yue took the cigarette in his hand, "I didn't smoke it"

"It's strange to believe you, bring it!" The nurse went to take the cigarette in his hand, walked around the ward again, and came out with a cigarette case in his hand, "Don't run around, let you get out of bed and move around , didn’t let you run to the street!”

After watching the nurse leave with a sad face, Qi Yue turned his head to look at Gu Zhong, and said, "I see the patient came empty-handed?"

"No...I..." Gu Zhong stammered, "Isn't this just... going to buy flowers."

"Rose." Qi Yue said.

"Ah?" Gu Zhong was stunned.

"Red." After Qi Yue finished speaking, he turned and went back to the ward.

Red rose? "of" your head ah!

Gu Zhong froze at the elevator door, thinking about leaving for a moment.

But I don't know why, maybe it's been a long time since I saw Qi Yue, and the few seconds of conversation just now made him a little happy.

He quickly gave up the idea of ​​walking away, ran to the flower shop downstairs to buy a bouquet of red roses, and carried them back to the hospital.

What was there to enjoy, he could not tell.

Probably because he was beaten together, or because he suddenly realized that Qi Yue drove him away because he didn't want to hurt him.

How bloody, like an 82-stream TV series.But he was still very touched. For the time being, he could ignore Qi Yue's usual teasing of him, but suddenly he felt that there was something else about Qi Yue other than the relationship between the former boss and the former clerk.

There is a kind of tacit understanding in the inner feelings.

When Gu Zhong pushed open the door of the ward with a bouquet of roses in his arms, he heard laughter from the nurse's station behind him.

He must be laughing at him, just when Qiyue said he wanted "red roses", there was already laughter, Gu Zhong sighed, and entered the ward with roses and a full stomach full of helplessness.

This ward is a double room, the bed next to the door is empty, Qi Yue is lying on the bed next to the window, when he heard the door knock, he turned his head and said, "Did you really buy it?"

"En." Gu Zhong responded, and when he looked up, he found another cigarette dangling from his mouth: "I'm dizzy, didn't the nurse take away all your packs of cigarettes just now? Why do you still have them? "

"Do I look like someone who only brought a pack of cigarettes to the hospital?" Qi Yue smiled with a cigarette in his mouth.

Gu Zhong went over to take down the cigarette and threw it into the toilet.

"Like my daughter-in-law." Qi Yue clicked his tongue twice.

"Do you have a daughter-in-law?" Gu Zhong rushed out of the toilet, holding flowers, and looked at him in shock, "Are you married?"

"Is your heart broken?" Qi Yue looked at him.

"I just find it strange." Gu Zhong put the flowers on the bedside table.

"What's strange, isn't it normal for a person my age to have a wife." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong pondered for a few seconds: "Yes."

After he finished speaking, he took the small stool next to him and sat down. He didn't continue talking, and didn't even ask about Qi Yue's injury. He felt a little depressed, and the cause was unknown.

Qi Yue asked with a smile: "No class today?"

Gu Zhong didn't understand what he was asking, and suddenly raised his head and said, "Why do you still live in the shop when you're married?"

"Huh?" Qi Yue looked at him, "When did I get married?"

Gu Zhong opened his mouth and said in a daze for a long time: "You just said that."

"I didn't say that." Qi Yue hooked the corners of his lips, "Your IQ matches your poor school very well."

"Really?" Gu Zhong stared at him, and had to concentrate on thinking about the previous conversation again, finally sighed, leaned back, "Playing with me again."

"You're so fun, it's useless if you don't play." Qi Yue smiled happily.

Gu Zhong frowned and looked at him for a while and said, "Smile so happily, you don't need to be hospitalized for this injury, do you?"

"Who said that?" Qi Yue still smiled, "I couldn't even get out of bed a few days ago, and I have to wait for me to take a shower."

"Who's serving?" Gu Zhong couldn't help asking.

"Uncle Nursing Worker." Qi Yue looked at him, "But it's expensive to hire a Nursing Worker..."

"No," Gu Zhong replied very decisively, "Everyone who makes short ribs because he likes to eat, even if he can't buy them every day, can't afford to hire a nurse."

"No conscience." Qi Yue said.

"My conscience can be expressed in other ways." Gu Zhong said.

"For example?" Qi Yue asked with interest.

"For example..." Gu Zhong fell into deep thought.

For example, make something to eat, cook a chicken soup or something.

Gu Zhong asked the nurse to confirm that there were not too many taboos in Qi Yue's diet, so he went home and asked his mother to help cook a pot of chicken soup.

"To whom?" Mom asked.

"My... ex-boss, no, my... friend." Gu Zhong said.

"If you don't help, cook it yourself, how hard is it to search for a recipe on the Internet?" Mom refused decisively, "I thought it was a girlfriend."

Gu Zhong glared at his mother, let alone chicken soup, he had never even cooked tomato and egg drop soup, if he really cooked it himself, even if Qi Yue dared to drink it, he wouldn't dare let others drink it.

After my mother said this, she turned around firmly and was about to leave. She gritted her teeth and asked, "Actually...it's my girlfriend."

"Oh?" Mom turned around, "Isn't it the former boss?"

"Our boss's woman." Gu Zhong said.

"Sibling love?" Mom asked.

"Not a few years older than me and very young." Gu Zhong recalled Qi Yue's face, it was still very handsome without the gauze wrap.

Mom didn't ask any more questions, and went to call someone to send chickens over. Gu Zhong looked at her, wondering if he was too important to his mother or not. The shop owner's sister-brother relationship is actually so calm.

The chicken soup is very fragrant. After my mother put the soup in a thermos, Gu Zhong looked inside, took a spoonful and tasted it. It was delicious, and the ingredients were very rich. It felt like it was stewed according to the standard of confinement. of.

"Are you coming back for dinner tonight?" Mom asked.

"I'm not sure yet, I..." Gu Zhong looked at the time, it happened to be dinner time this time, but the nurse said that Qi Yue was not allowed to leave the hospital, so he couldn't go out for dinner together, so he probably had to come back.

But before he finished thinking about it, his mother interrupted him and said: "Then don't come back, your father won't come back to eat, I just happen to lose weight and eat a salad by myself."

"Oh..." Gu Zhong opened the door with the chicken soup in his hand.

After leaving the community, he turned into the supermarket without much hesitation and bought some cooked food.

It would also be nice to have a meal with Qi Yue in the hospital.

But when he opened the door of the ward, he felt a little shocked.

Originally, only Qi Yue lived in a very relaxed and comfortable ward, but now almost no light from the window can come in.

Qi Yue was still the only person living in the ward, but there were eight or nine people around his bed, all of whom were quite tall, standing together with amazing momentum, blocking Qi Yue's people from seeing him.

Hearing the sound of the door, these people all turned their heads, and their gazes all fell on Gu Zhong.

Except for the self-introduction at the beginning of school, Gu Zhong rarely had this kind of experience of being directly scrutinized by everyone, so he froze by the door in embarrassment.

"Who ordered takeaway?" someone asked.

"Gu Zhong glanced at the food bag in his hand.

Who asked! Are you blind?! How can there be a takeaway who is so handsomely dressed and looks so handsome! "Chuaner?" Qi Yue's voice came from between the people.

"En." Gu Zhong had no choice but to quickly accept the title. "Come in." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong hesitated for a while, and went to put all the things in his hand on the bedside table, and a few people moved aside, Gu Zhong finally saw Qi Yue who was leaning on the bed.

"Such a lot?" Qi Yue looked at the things he brought, "What's there?" "Just..." Gu Zhong glanced at the person beside the bed, "Eat."

"You did it yourself?" Qi Yue asked.

"That's right." Gu Zhong pointed to the thermos, "This is chicken soup, and I bought the others.

"I'm hungry." Qi Yue looked at the people still surrounded by the bed, "Let's go."

"Brother Qi, we" someone said, but was soon interrupted by Qi Yue.

"Let's go." He waved his hand, "Didn't you see that my small and medium schools have delivered food, I want to eat.

Gu Zhong turned his head suddenly, and he could hear his neck click: "What did you say?"

But no one seemed to have any reaction to this title except him, that person frowned and looked at Qi Yue and said, "But we're here"

"What's the matter with you?" Qi Yue interrupted him impatiently, "Hurry up and go."

"Brother Qi, you are already like this. Another person also spoke, but was also interrupted by Qi Yue.

"This is my business, I'll handle it myself." Qi Yue looked at them, "Don't think about your blood boiling when you're not young, just be careful, let's go, I'm going to eat, and I haven't prepared for you. "

Several people hesitated, looked at each other and sighed at each other, and finally turned around and went out together.When the door was closed, someone added: "Brother Qi, we are here to help if there is anything we need, no matter what.

Qi Yue didn't speak, and waved towards the door.

As soon as the person left, Gu Zhong suddenly felt that the room was relaxed. He sat on the small stool beside the bed and breathed a sigh of relief.

Judging by the posture and temperament of these people, Qi Yue knew without asking, that these were all his brothers, or ex-brothers, who were his friends when he was with that boss.

Different from the gangsters who are often seen, the aura of this adult former gangster is obviously much stronger. He feels a strong sense of oppression, and there is a worry that he will be beaten if he speaks carelessly.

But, what the hell is Xiaozhongzhong?!

Gu Zhong got back to the point, staring at Qi Yue who was twisting the lid of the thermos: "What did you just call me?"

"Have you brought a bowl?" Qi Yue said, "How do you drink such a big bucket?"

"You call me Er, Chuaner, I can bear it," Gu Zhong glared at him, "What do you mean by Xiao Zhongzhong?"

"It's very fragrant." Qi Yue unscrewed the lid and smelled it, "You definitely didn't do this."

"I'm begging you." Gu Zhong felt that the feelings he had built up with him were slowly fading away, "Call me Gu Zhong, is that okay, Boss Qi?"

"Gu Zhong." Qi Yue glanced at him, "Do you have any bowls and chopsticks?"

"Yes..." Gu Zhong took out a disposable bowl and chopsticks from the bag.

"Calling your voice so small and medium so big." Qi Yue wanted to pour the soup into the bowl, but failed after trying twice. It seemed that his arm was injured, so he put down the thermos.

Gu Zhong got up and picked up the thermos bucket to prepare him to pour the soup, but he added another sentence: "Aren't I comforting you?"

"Comfort me?" Gu Zhong stopped in shock.

"When you hear that I have a daughter-in-law, you feel lost, so why not comfort me," Qi Yue said, "After all, he is also the one who gave the red rose."

Gu Zhong felt that there were eight tornadoes twisting in his heart at this moment. He stared at Qi Yue for a long time before he managed to control his hand, poured the soup into a bowl, and said, "Let me remind you that the red rose was made by you." ordered."

"Oh." Qi Yue took a sip of soup from the bowl, "Then why did you buy it?"

"You are not my boss now." Gu Zhong gritted his teeth and pointed at him, "I see you as a wounded person now."

"Is your mother made the soup?" Qi Yue asked.

Gu Zhong stared at him for a while, then sat back on the stool helplessly: "Yes."

Qi Yue was seriously injured this time, although Gu Zhong wanted to ask about the injury several times while eating, but he didn't answer directly, and he went around rambling, but Gu Zhong could still understand the pain from his movements. figure it out.

He walked very slowly, couldn't pick up his arms after eating, and made him shake the bed after sitting and eating for a while, so he had to lean on it.It is estimated that there are also injuries on the waist or stomach.

Gu Zhong didn't know if Qi Yue's injury had anything to do with what happened last time, but he only knew that Qi Yue was miserable this time.

"Is the blockhouse still open?" he asked.

"What will I eat if I don't open?" Qi Yue replied, "We will open when we are discharged from the hospital.

"Do you have to recruit people again?" He remembered the first time he went to the blockhouse.

"Well, I still have the recruiting cardboard you wrote." Qi Yue said.

"How about?" Gu Zhong hesitated, "Let me go back?"

Qi Yue glanced at him and said nothing.

"Anyway, I have to find a place to work." Gu Zhong said, "I can still turn on the air conditioner, drink some coffee, and eat beef short ribs when I go to the blockhouse."

"Don't go." Qi Yue said, "If you want to find a coffee shop, I can introduce it to you. It's easier than mine, and you don't have to clean up three floors. You can eat and drink."

This time it was Gu Zhong's turn to be silent.Ordinarily, if there is a place with the same environmental treatment and less tiring, he should be very happy.

But he was not happy, rather disappointed.

"What's the matter?" Qi Yue took a peanut and put it in his mouth, "You still bought a lot of peanuts, why don't you buy wine?"

"The doctor said you can't drink alcohol." Gu Zhong fumbled in the grocery bag for a while, found a can of beer, opened it and took a sip.

"Yo." Qi Yue was stunned when he saw it, "Have you learned to be angry? Believe it or not, I will beat you."

"Come on, what are you going to beat me with?" Gu Zhong glanced at him, then took another sip, "It feels like there is no good place on your body, is there any wound?"

Qi Yue laughed and said: "The nurse will come in to clean you up later, and drinking is not allowed in the ward."

Gu Zhong didn't say a word, he tilted his neck and poured most of the wine into his mouth, then wiped his mouth and said, "I left two drinks for you, do you want it?"

Qi Yue reached out to take the jar, Gu Zhong shrank his hand and said, "I don't want to go to other coffee shops, let me go back to the gun tower, I'm used to it."

"Didn't you think my words were inappropriate all day long?" Qi Yue smiled.

"I'm used to you hurting me anyway." Gu Zhong sighed.

Qi Yue didn't speak, took the jar in his hand, and drank the rest.

It wasn't until after dinner that Gu Zhong packed up his things that he leaned against the bedside and said, "You know, you can't go back. Others can, but you can't."

"Why?" Gu Zhong looked at him.

"Because everyone else can run." Qi Yue turned his head and looked at him, "You can't."

"Is it about what happened that day?" Gu Zhong frowned, "If something like that happens again, I'll run away too."

"Really?" Qi Yue narrowed his eyes.

Gu Zhong paused. In fact, thinking back on what happened that day now, he also felt that rationally speaking, he should run away, but rationality is not something that can be preserved all the time.

And that was Qi Yue after all.

"I don't know." Gu Zhong said, "But at that time, you were - I'm old." This reason is too far-fetched. Qi Yue said, "Are you an idiot? You are so loyal as the owner of a part-time coffee shop." "

"No." Gu Zhong quickly replaced himself with other identities, such as waiter at a snack bar, waiter at a barbecue shop, waiter at a clothing store, milk tea shop, and restaurant bar. The boss is different."

"Am I too handsome?" Qi Yue said.

"You are too shameless." Gu Zhong sighed, every time the conversation ended without a problem like this.

However, although Qi Yue refused him to go back to the store, he happily asked him to deliver chicken soup every day.

"It's impossible for my mother to do it for you every day." Gu Zhong said, "She is very busy with weight loss, beauty treatment, drinking tea and shopping with her sisters."

"You do it." Qi Yue said, "I never told your mother to do it at first."

"Do you dare to eat what I made?" Gu Zhong asked.

Qi Yue thought for a while and nodded: "Dare to eat, life is all about being brave to challenge, I am so strong. "

Gu Zhong sighed.

As far as I can remember, Gu Zhong only officially cooked dinner twice.One time was a task assigned by the school, and he went home to cook a meal for his mother. He went home and cooked tomato egg drop soup and scrambled eggs with tomatoes. The classmate went to a picnic, and he cooked a pot of raw rice and a pot of undercooked dumplings.

In order to make food for Qi Yue, he had to carefully search for recipes on the Internet, and then asked girls in class for advice.

After examining his aptitude, the girl thought that his talent in this area was negative, so Yu Zu taught him the simplest way, chopping up all the dishes he wanted to cook and frying them into rice.

Gu Zhong tried it, and the operation was indeed very simple. Although he couldn't "fry" the rice at all, he could only stir it in the pot, but after making it, he tasted it, and it tasted surprisingly good.

"It's... quite delicious." Qi Yue sat on the hospital bed, holding a lunch box.

"Really?" Gu Zhong smiled, "I also think it's delicious."

"Have you eaten?" Qi Yue glanced at him.

"No, I just tasted it." Gu Zhong took out another lunch box, "I packed a box for myself too.

"Eating this reminds me of my childhood." Qi Yue said.

"Huh?" Gu Zhong didn't expect his works to have such miraculous effects.

"When I was young, I lived in the countryside with my grandparents." Qi Yue said slowly while eating, "My grandfather raised a few pigs in the old house, and I help feed them every day."

"I think you can stop talking." Gu Zhong had a hunch that this person really couldn't speak seriously.

"Mix the feed with leftovers..." Qi Yue continued.

"Okay." Gu Zhong stood up, "Okay, okay, I understand."

Qi Yue tipped the lunch box in his hand at him, and said with a smile, "It's just like this."

"Can I break off friendship with you?" Gu Zhong asked seriously.

"Would you like to come to the hospital to see me?" Qi Yue also said very seriously, "We have broken off friendship." "

Gu Zhong was stunned for a moment, then fell silent. After looking at him for a long time, he sat back on the stool, bowed his head and took two mouthfuls of "pig food".

"It's really delicious." Qi Yue said after eating, "Thank you.

"I know this now." Gu Zhong said, "Do you mind eating this every day from now on?"

"Aren't you breaking up again?" Qi Yue asked.

Gu Zhong frowned and said, "Seriously, are you really planning to not ask me to go back after reopening? Are you never going to contact me again?

Qi Yue looked at him and said nothing.

After thinking about it, Gu Zhong felt that it was a bit embarrassing for Xiang Chu to say such a thing. He raised his head after pulling out the rice in the lunch box and said, "After all, it's not easy to find a skilled handyman like me."

Qi Yue still didn't make a sound, but just started laughing.

"Forget it." Gu Zhong packed up the lunch box and took it into the bathroom to comment, so I said. "

"Chuan'er." Qi Yue slowly got out of bed, walked to the door of the bathroom and leaned against him, "I actually like you very much, the first time you went to my place, I was thinking, this kid should come Quite fun."

"I'm tired of playing now." Gu Zhong clicked his tongue.

"Don't say that." Qi Yue said with a smile, "This conversation sounds like I abandoned you.

Gu Zhong sighed, unable to refute.

Qi Yue was very fond of fried rice, and for the next half a month or so, Gu Zhong ran home every afternoon, arguing about this thing and taking it to the hospital.

He even admired his perseverance, but he didn't know what to try.

He has never done anything that can do this. When my mother called my father, he always said: "Your son is possessed by a demon."

Obsessed?In fact, it's not that much, Gu Zhong thinks it's probably because of this season.

The weather is changing day by day, getting cooler little by little, and the leaves on the trees are getting less and less. Every day when I get up, I can see more and more fallen leaves on the roadside.

He felt a little lonely.

Staying in the hospital and chatting with Qi Yue somehow made him feel comfortable, even though the conversation was often blocked because of Qi Yue.

In contrast, Qi Yue is much more interesting than those idiots around him, although he himself is one of these idiots.

That's the charm.Qi Yue is a very attractive man, he has lost his youthfulness, experienced joy and anger, and has become calm.There are also idlers.

After eating "fried rice" for almost 20 days, school is about to end.Qi Yue can also be discharged from the hospital.

Qi Maomao called and said that the store was cleaned up, and the room in Qiyue's small attic was also cleaned up.

"Why hasn't she been to the hospital?" Gu Zhong was a little surprised.

"She dare not come." Qi Yue smiled.

"Why?" Gu Zhong was stunned, and it took a while to realize, "It's not because she told me about your hospitalization, and I'm afraid you'll settle accounts with her, right?"

"The account must be settled." Qi Yue walked out of the ward with his bag, "She's just delaying time."

"She's just a little girl." Gu Zhong said "tsk tsk", "Don't you feel pity at all?"

"You don't understand." Qi Yue said.

Back in the blockhouse, Gu Zhong stood at the door and watched for a long time, until Qi Yue pulled up the rolling gate from the inside, and then he walked in.

In fact, he would pass by here every day when he went to the hospital, but when he stood outside the store again today, he felt that it had been a long time, and he was a little emotional and a little lucky.

Fortunately, I am still here and have not "lost contact" with Qi Yue.

It seems that Qi Maomao did come to tidy up. The floor was swept clean, the dust on the table was wiped off, and all the machines on the bar were cleaned and used.The frother was also turned on, and a freshly opened can of milk was placed next to it.

"Help me hang up that cardboard box. Qi Yue took two sips of milk, "We have to open." "

Gu Zhong took out the recruitment notice he wrote from the drawer of the bar, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "I'll come over tomorrow?"

"You have an exam week next week." Qi Yue said.

"Yeah." Gu Zhong held the paper shell and tapped it on the bar counter, "But our exams are not difficult, and I count as a good grade in our trash school."

Qi Yue smiled.

"I don't want to change places to work." Gu Zhong said softly, "I won't meet a boss like you again, and it's not easy for you to find another employee like me."

"Hang it up." Qi Yue leaned on the table by the window and lit a cigarette: "We'll talk about it after the exam week."

"I can spend the whole day on vacation." Gu Zhong looked at him.

"Adding money is impossible." Qi Yue said.

"I didn't say to add money." Gu Zhong said.

"Do you know?" Qi Yue turned his head and licked the corner of his mouth at him, "If you appreciate me, you must say it, and I will definitely smash the world's eyes and embrace you.

"Shut up." Gu Zhong took the paper shell to the door and hung it up.

Exam week was nothing to Gu Zhong. Although he hadn't done well in class, he was surrounded by people who were more inconspicuous than him. In comparison, he became a key figure who was copied by others during the exam.

In the past few days of the exam, he will still go to the gun tower to have a look.It is estimated that the blockhouse has not yet recruited enough people. The atmosphere during business hours is as casual as that of the boss, and there are not many customers.

"Why are you running here all the time?" Qi Yue said.

"See if you have recruited enough people." Gu Zhong said, looking around, "It seems that there are not enough?"

"Someone will come to work at the bar from tomorrow." Qi Yue smiled.

"What about... the waiter?" Gu Zhong asked anxiously.

"Two came today, and they are also from your school." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong was stunned for a moment, then patted the bar counter and said, "No! Our school definitely can't do it. You don't know how lazy those people are. They don't even bother to go to sleep in class, and they don't even want to go to the classroom in the dormitory."

"Including you?" Qi Yue asked.

"I'm a different kind, I..." Gu Zhong sighed halfway through speaking, "Stop teasing me, it's just a matter of saying something."

Qi Yue looked at him and sighed too, and after a while he said: "Come on after the exam."

"Look..." Gu Zhong raised his eyebrows, "It's so simple."

The blockhouse is still the same as before. After returning to the shop after the Gu Zhong exam, it feels like it has stayed here for 100 years without any change.

Colleagues who are too busy to get to know each other; the boss who is always lazily standing by the window watching the scenery; the little ornaments who stay quietly on the table and window sill without changing; and the style of no promotions and promotions no matter what the program is.

The pot whistled happily while wiping the table.

Someone came up the stairs behind him, and when he turned around to say "Welcome", he found that the person who came up was Qi Yue.

"Don't you make short ribs?" He looked at the time, "Someone should have dinner by now."

"I won't cook today, I don't want to eat." Qi Yue said, "Come on, I'll show you the scenery."

"Oh, where to look?" Gu Zhong asked.

Qi Yue raised his index finger and pointed upwards.

"Above?" Gu Zhong was stunned, this is already the third floor, "The roof?"

"Yeah." Qi Yue walked to a small cabinet one by one, and dragged the cabinets open, revealing a small door that seemed to be only big enough for one person to walk sideways, "This is a secret."

Gu Zhong stared at the door in surprise, seeing Qi Yue took out the key and opened the door, he threw down the rag and followed to take a look.

It turned out to be a small balcony outside, which circled half a circle around the back wall of the third floor of the blockhouse.

"Wow," Gu Zhong walked out, a gust of chilly wind blew over, he tugged on his collar, "It's amazing... Tell me, besides your room and this balcony, there are other buildings in this building. What a secret!"

"There is one more." Qi Yue leaned against the wall and stretched while looking at the distance, "I will tell you later."

"Why hide the door?" Gu Zhong looked at the scenery in front of him, "There must be people who like to come here."

The towers are not too high, but they can be seen quite far in this area. The buildings of different heights, scattered, new or old, seem a little lonely in the cold wind for no reason.

"In case someone falls, I have to take responsibility." Qi Yue stretched out his legs and lightly kicked the black iron railing of the balcony. The railing was indeed a bit short, reaching even to the waist.

"You can raise the railing, it's okay..." Gu Zhong turned his face to look at him, and he turned his face too. Gu Zhong understood his expression, "Yes, it's too troublesome and you don't want to do it."

Qi Yue smiled and patted him on the shoulder.

"Such a lazy person can actually open a shop," Gu Zhong said.

Qi Yue paused for a moment with his hand on his shoulder, looked into the distance, raised his head and let out a sigh of relief, then sat on the wooden floor of the balcony leaning against the wall, and lit a cigarette.

Gu Zhong also sat down and looked at him: "What's wrong?"

"Someone said the same thing to me before." Qi Yue squinted his eyes, smoking a cigarette, "It was a long time ago, when I wanted to open a coffee shop, he said... you are so lazy, you actually want to open a coffee shop." coffee shop."

"Who said that?" Gu Zhong was curious.

"A friend." Qi Yue turned his face and smiled, "Sometimes when I look at you, I think you are very similar to him and me in many ways."

"I don't owe you as much." Gu Zhong said immediately.

Qi Yue laughed, stopped after a long time, took a puff of cigarette, looked at the blue smoke rising between his fingers and said: "That's why I don't want you here, show loyalty, be impulsive, and never know how to back off."

Gu Zhong didn't say a word, he was silent for a long time before he said: "It depends on who it is, although you are annoying, but I regard you as a friend."

"I'm afraid of this." Qi Yue picked up his hand and pawed his head twice, "For a friend."

"I feel like you don't have any friends." Gu Zhong raised his head back and closed his eyes.

"Now I have no friends." Qi Yue said.

"Don't I count?" Gu Zhong said, "I think I should count."

"You don't count." Qi Yue said.

Gu Zhong put his legs on the railing, "Anyway, I understand what you mean, just tell me not to be so impulsive, and if someone troubles you again, I will run away."

"En." Qi Yue nodded.

"I also ran away that day." Gu Zhong said.

"You shouldn't have come back at all." Qi Yue squeezed his arm, "Is it alright?"

"You can kill a cow with one arm." Yizhong smiled, "I'm not saying, are you a little too careful, or... too... I can't tell, what have you experienced that made you so Think, I think there is nothing right or wrong about some things, it should be true for friends.”

"But there must be a limit." Qi Yue interrupted him, "Don't put your loyalty on your head. Some things can't be solved by just talking about loyalty. Once something happens, it will last forever."

Gu Zhong opened his eyes and looked at him with some confusion.

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand now." Qi Yue's voice was a little low, "Just remember it."

"Hmm..." Gu Zhong responded.

After Qi Yue finished smoking two cigarettes, he got up and went back to the building.

Gu Zhong stared at the two small balls of soot falling on the balcony in a daze.

Qi Yue was a little too cautious, he was too nervous and he would have an accident because of his so-called loyalty, which was somewhat incomprehensible in the eyes of normal people, but he repeatedly emphasized and emphasized back and forth.

Gu Zhong sat in the wind and thought for a long time. This state is really not like Qi Yue's style, and he is not at all lazy and free and easy as usual.

But if we put that rumor on Qi Yue, everything can be explained.

If that rumor is true, Qi Yue must have regretted it. He regretted not running away because of his loyalty at that time, and the boss also chose to carry it to the end because of his loyalty.

Gu Zhong frowned, tapped his fingers on the wooden floor lightly.

Perhaps Qi Yue regretted not only this, but perhaps what he regretted was that he shouldn't have gone in like this in the first place, stepping into the so-called rivers and lakes, just like he satirized his so-called "hot blood" when he had nothing to do.

Maybe.

Gu Zhong stood up slowly, patted his pants, and suddenly felt a burst of warmth.

He went back into the building, closed and locked the door, and pushed the cabinet back into place.

The voices and laughter of the guests downstairs, as well as the sound of the busy traffic on the street came back to his ears. He took the rag, wiped the unfinished table, and went downstairs.

Qi Yue had already returned to the first floor, standing by the window as usual, looking out leisurely.

In addition to Gu Zhong, there is another waiter in the store now.
