it's dark, coax me

Gu Xiu sat in front of the table, pinching his arm as if unconscious.

The phone rang again, it was a message from Gong Lihua.

Gong Lihua said before that he hangs up the phone well, but now it's her own body, but the reaction is the same as that of Gu Wenlin before. The message he sent also reprimanded him for being uneducated, saying that he shouldn't treat his elders like this.

Then started to let him go back.

Gu Xiu suddenly felt that the world was ridiculous.

He is just uneducated, and who has really patiently taught him this?

And is eating this meal really that important to Gong Lihua?She just couldn't accept him out of control and didn't want to lose face.

When Zhou Xing returned to the room, he saw that Gu Xiu had pinched his two arms until they turned red and blue.

He quickly grabbed Gu Xiu's hand and stopped his movement.

His gaze fell on Gu Xiuqingzi's arm, and he asked, "Do you remember what you promised me earlier?" [Note 1]

Gu Xiu looked at his arm, he should have pinched it unconsciously just now, not what Zhou Xing said, he didn't even notice it, he didn't even feel the pain.

He responded, don't hurt yourself, he still remembers.

Zhou Xing eased his tone, squatted in front of Gu Xiu, took his arm, "Let me take a look..."

Gu Xiu shook off Zhou Xing's hand.

Zhou Xing didn't mind Gu Xiu's irascibility, he went downstairs to borrow a medicine box and an ice pack from the owner of the hotel, and then squatted in front of Gu Xiu, helping him treat the bruises on his arms.

Facing Zhou Xing's concern, Gu Xiu felt like a vexatious child at this moment, but what right did he have to make troubles?

Finally he said: "My family asked me to go back, and I will leave tomorrow."

Zhou Xing knew that Gu Xiu would leave eventually, but when he heard him suddenly say that he would leave, he suddenly felt as if there was a void in his heart.

He reluctantly said: "I see, let's go back today."

Gu Xiu responded.

The atmosphere between the two of them seemed to freeze. After that, neither of them spoke again.

In the afternoon, Zhou Xing and Gu Xiu drove back to the wooden house together.

Although the distance between the two cities is not very far, the weather is completely different. When they left, the seaside was still sunny, but it was raining here.

Zhou Xing parked the car in the carport and was looking back for an umbrella when Gu Xiu got out of the car and walked towards the wooden house in the rain.

Zhou Xing followed Gu Xiu and quickly raised his umbrella to cover Gu Xiu's head.

After Gu Xiu returned to the wooden house, he went back to his room.

Zhou Xing made a cup of ginger tea and walked into Gu Xiu's room.

Gu Xiu was staring at the rain outside the window in a daze.

Zhou Xing looked out of the window following Gu Xiu's gaze, and asked, "It's raining outside, and the temperature is a bit cold, do you feel cold?"

As he spoke, he walked to the window and closed it.

The voice of whispering outside, with Zhou Xing's movements, eased a little.

The temperature will drop after the rain. Thinking of staying in the car for several hours tomorrow, Zhou Xing couldn't help but said: "The temperature will cool down in these two days, and wear thicker clothes tomorrow."

Gu Xiu didn't speak.

Zhou Xing looked away, thinking about helping Gu Xiu clean up and salute for a while, at this moment, he suddenly noticed that Gu Xiu's medicine bottle was empty.

"Your medicine..."

"It's all gone. The doctor sent me the medicine a few days ago, and it should be here soon. But it doesn't matter anymore. I'll go back tomorrow."

It's the same when the courier arrives, and no one will carefully observe his condition anytime after he goes back left and right. Even if he gets sick again, even if he doesn't take medicine, no one will care.

Zhou Xing didn't know the impact of Gu Xiu not taking medicine for a day or two, so he immediately called the courier collection point to inquire about the situation, but there was no courier for him, presumably it hadn't arrived yet.

Zhou Xing picked up the empty bottle and said, "I'll drive down the mountain to buy it for you."

Gu Xiu looked at Zhou Xing, and he didn't understand why he did this. He was already going back, and he had fulfilled his duty of care, so there was no need for him to do anything for him.

"No, you can't buy it."

Psychotropic drugs are prescription drugs and cannot be purchased without a prescription.

Moreover, with the scale of the Yamashita Hospital, it is hard to say whether there is such a medicine.

"You don't need to do anything else, I'll be back soon." Gu Xiu said.

Zhou Xing suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, Gu Xiu didn't need him to do anything anymore.

The two looked at each other speechlessly for a while, Zhou Xing left Gu Xiu's room, lit a cigarette, watched the rain outside the window, and stood by the window for a long time like this.

The only heartless one here is Zhang Wanwan, Zhang Wanwan didn't know what happened, it still approached Gu Xiu and licked his hand as before.

However, Gu Xiu seemed to have lost his perception of the outside world, and did not give the slightest reaction.

He sat quietly on the chair, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of gray veil.

After all, Zhou Xing still felt uneasy, and walked into Gu Xiu's room again after a while.

He asked, "Want to watch a movie together?"

On the last day of being together, there is always something to do.

What Gu Xiu said was still the same sentence, "I want to be alone."

Zhou Xing's throat rolled, he wanted to say, 'Your legs are not healed yet, who will take care of you after you go back? ’ and wanted to say, ‘You can stay a little longer, at least until your leg is better before you go back. '

But he was in no position to say so.

It was his family who asked Gu Xiu to go back, they would definitely take good care of him...

After all, Zhou Xing only said the word 'good', then turned and left the room.

Gu Xiu watched Zhou Xing close the door by himself, and watched the space return to silence again.

He could no longer find a reason to stay at Zhou Xing's place, but when he went back, what would greet him?

They are his family, but the word family has always been unfamiliar to him.

Gu Xiu thought of Gu Wenlin, he hadn't seen Gu Wenlin for a long time, and now Gu Wenlin called him back, not for anything else, just to congratulate his 'brother' and congratulate him on these achievements.

And his mother, even if she poured all her efforts on him back then, it was just to fight against that woman. To her, he was first a tool that could be used to fight back, and second was a relative.

If not, she would not be so decisive. After finding out that he was suffering from depression, she immediately chose to give up on him and threw him to his father, whom he had almost never met.

It may not be appropriate to say relatives. Even if he has a dog for more than ten years, he has feelings for him. Sometimes he feels that he is not as good as a dog.

Now that Gong Lihua insisted on letting him go back, it was just out of anger. For this son whom she hadn't seen in several years, did she really miss him more than half?

After so many years, has she ever regretted abandoning him?

What was he to them?

A tool that dare not admit that he lost to marriage?

A prop to set off another excellent son?

Gu Xiu's eyes were red, but he didn't cry, but smiled slowly.

Since he was asked to go back, he went back, he wanted to see what these people wanted to say to him, and there was no reason for him to stay any longer.

It was enough for Zhou Xing to take care of him for so many days.

He has caused enough troubles to Zhou Xing these days.

Zhou Xing supported the kitchen sink with both hands, and after calming down for a while, he started to make dinner.

He will be leaving tomorrow morning, and he may not have the appetite to eat much in the morning. This dinner may be the last meal he can cook for Gu Xiu.

Zhou Xing carefully selected the ingredients, cut them carefully, and then simmered them slowly.

As time passed bit by bit, the kitchen was filled with a strong smell of rice.

Zhou Xing made this dinner for more than two hours, and the sky had completely darkened.

Gu Xiu felt very uncomfortable, his whole body was uncomfortable from inside to outside, he couldn't whet his appetite, facing Zhou Xing's invitation, he just said: "I'm not hungry yet."

Zhou Xingxiang smiled as before and pulled Gu Xiu up, pushed him to the dining table, and advised him to eat more, but he couldn't laugh.

He just stood there and said, "I've made a lot, all of which you like to eat, so eat a little."

When Gu Xiu heard Zhou Xing say this, he suddenly felt sad again. For so many years after high school, no one cared about what he liked to eat, and no one deliberately cooked for him according to his taste.

After all, he couldn't bear to disappoint Zhou Xing's intentions, so Gu Xiu finally followed Zhou Xing to sit at the dining table.

Zhou Xing never wasted much on cooking, basically according to the amount of food for two people, but today was obviously not the case, Zhou Xing cooked a whole table of dishes, there were more than a dozen dishes.

Gu Xiu knew that Zhou Xing was probably giving him a farewell, so he ate some of each dish.

Zhou Xing always eats fast and eats a lot, but he barely moved his chopsticks during this meal, and just watched Gu Xiu eat.

After Gu Xiu finished eating, Zhou Xing asked, "Will Xie Jie or your family come to pick you up tomorrow?"

"No, hired a driver."

Gu Xiu didn't want to tell Gu Wenlin and Gong Lihua about his current situation, so he finally called Xie Jie and told Xie Jie about his plan to go back.

Xie Jie didn't expect Gu Xiu to go back so suddenly, but he heard Gu Xiu said that something happened at home, and thinking about it might not be a bad thing for him to go back to meet his family, so he didn't say much.

It's just that Xie Jie is out of town at the moment, and he can't make it for a while. In the end, Gu Xiu just asked Xie Jie to find a nearby driver to take him back.

Xie Jie has already contacted him.

"You cancel the order, I'll take you back."

In Gu Xiu's current state, he is worried about hiring a driver to go back to Zhou Xing, and he also hopes to spend more time with Gu Xiu in his heart, even a few more hours is good.

"No, you've already caused a lot of trouble during this time, so there's no need to send me back."

"I just happened to go to your city to do some business, so I'll take you back and do the business, it doesn't take much effort."

Gu Xiu responded softly, and sure enough, everything Zhou Xing did had nothing to do with feelings, "Then I will trouble you."

After the two settled down, Gu Xiu called Xie Jie so that he wouldn't have to help him contact the driver anymore.

Zhou Xing also called Zheng Yan and asked him to come over tomorrow and take Zhang Wanwan back to take care of him for a few days.

After Gu Xiu made the phone call, he roughly packed his things. Zhou Xing wanted to come over to help him halfway, but he refused.

He didn't have many things, just two suitcases, and it didn't take much time for one person to pack them up, and Zhou Xing didn't need to help him in the first place.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, after the two had breakfast, they carried their suitcases and headed for Gu Xiu's car.

It was just two suitcases when it came, and it was still the same when it left.

It's as if nothing has changed.

Just when Gu Xiu was thinking this way, he saw Zhou Xing put the suitcase in the trunk for him and turned back twice, took a lot of wild game from the mountains and put it on the car for him, and even brought him Several jars of red apricot jam.

Gu Xiu originally wanted to refuse, but when the words came to his lips, he suddenly thought that it would be good to keep a souvenir, so he still didn't say anything.

Zhou Xing took the car keys from Gu Xiu and started the car, and the car went back along the way it came from.

The car was driving smoothly all the way. When passing an intersection, Gu Xiu looked at the familiar intersection and remembered that this was the "East Exit of Youling Village Road" that the navigation told him to turn when he came.

Thinking that Zhou Xing took him on a new road this time, and they didn't pass the dirt road where the car was stuck in a puddle when they came.

The vehicle slowly went down along the winding mountain road.

Zhou Xing had a lot of thoughts in his heart, and couldn't help but asked: "Your leg will be able to remove the plaster cast in a week or two, remember to go to the hospital to remove it then."

Thinking of overhearing Gu Xiu and the psychiatrist on the phone, the psychiatrist advised him to go to the hospital for psychological treatment, and Gu Xiu’s medicine was gone, so he probably needed to be reopened, Zhou Xing continued: "There is still your illness, Go to the hospital to have a look, the medicine is also..."

Gu Xiu thought of Meng Ze's words before, interrupted Zhou Xing abruptly, and asked, "Do you think all mental patients should be sent to mental hospitals?"

Zhou Xing didn't expect Gu Xiu to say that, he didn't know if he said something wrong, "No, I didn't mean that."

Gu Xiu and Zhou Xing looked at each other for a moment, Zhou Xing's eyes were clear.

In fact, Gu Xiu also knew that Zhou Xing was not such a person through getting along with him during this period of time, but at this moment, he couldn't control his temper.

He withdrew his gaze and said, "I'm a little out of control, don't worry about it."

Zhou Xing responded, and continued after a while: "I'm not very good at talking, don't be angry, I just hope you can feel better."

Gu Xiu didn't seem to hear this sentence, he didn't give any reaction, he just cast his gaze out of the car window.

After that, the two of them remained silent on the road.

Zhou Xing subconsciously lit a cigarette, only to feel that in the past two days, everything seemed to be developing in a good direction, and Gu Xiu's situation had also improved obviously. look.

The vehicle drove on the road for three hours, and Zhou Xing slowed down at noon. Looking at the restaurants lined up on the side of the road, he asked, "Is there anything you want to eat?"

"casual."

Gu Xiu has no appetite now and doesn't want to eat anything.

Zhou Xing thought for a while, and finally parked the car in front of a restaurant.

Looking at the scale, there should be all kinds of food here, and Gu Xiu can just order whatever he wants to eat later.

The two entered the restaurant together.

The waiter quickly came over with the menu.

Zhou Xing handed the menu to Gu Xiu, and asked him to see if there was anything he wanted to eat, but Gu Xiu didn't even look at it, and just said, "Anything is fine, as you like."

After being silent for a while, Zhou Xing placed the order according to Gu Xiu's taste, and then asked Gu Xiu, "Are you going to the bathroom?"

Gu Xiu shook his head.

"I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be right back."

Gu Xiu responded.

Zhou Xing got up and went to the bathroom.

At noon, there were quite a lot of people in the restaurant, and there was a little girl sitting alone at Gu Xiu's table, holding a book and reading.

The little girl was six or seven years old, with two ponytails and a pink skirt, she looked very cute.

The little girl frowned as she read the book, as if she had encountered some difficulty. After a while, she moved down the chair, walked to Gu Xiu's side with the book, and said, "Brother."

It was only when the little girl yelled for the second time that Gu Xiu came back to his senses and noticed the existence of the little girl.

The little girl put the book on the table, pointed to a word on the book and asked, "Brother, do you know what this word reads?"

Gu Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly and tried his best to look at it, but he couldn't see clearly at all. The words on the book seemed to come alive the moment his eyes met, wrapping him in it.

In an instant, he felt dizzy all over.

Gu Xiu closed his eyes and said, "I don't know."

The girl seemed a little lost, "It turns out my brother doesn't know this word either..."

She said that she took the book and sat back to the previous position, and seemed to give up the idea of ​​asking others.

On one side, a person who had been recording video with his mobile phone walked up to the little girl and asked curiously, "Which word did you ask just now? Let me look it up for you."

The little girl seemed a little puzzled by the man's sudden approach, but she followed the man's words and clicked on the words in her book.
