love after ten years

◎He Cheng Mingxiao is not a man anyone can control◎

Cheng Mingxiao agreed to go home for the New Year's Eve dinner, which was beyond Gu Qiyu's expectation. He thought he would waste some time talking, so when he called Cheng Mingxiao, he still thought of a lot of words in his mind.

Gu Qiyu seldom argues for anything in front of Cheng Mingxiao, as long as it is Cheng Mingxiao's decision, he seldom opposes it.

Even if Cheng Mingxiao said he had something to go out during the New Year's Eve dinner like last year, Gu Qiyu just thoughtfully brought him a thick down jacket, told him to drive carefully, and let him go out.

After that, I didn't come back until the evening of the next day.

Of course, Gu Qiyu knew what Cheng Mingxiao did when he went out. After all, the men who had been together for eight years, the brand of shirts at home, and the smell of laundry detergent, he remembered clearly.

What's more, there was a small hickey mark on the back of the neck, on the collar of the white shirt, when Cheng Mingxiao lowered his head to drink the soup, it happened to be exposed, making Gu Qiyu's eyes swell slightly.

I don't want to care about the past, and Gu Qiyu is relieved that he doesn't need to say those well-thought-out words, after all, he really doesn't want to sound like a resentful woman.

In short, this year's Chinese New Year is not just about being alone.

He cooked a bowl of millet porridge, managed to drink half of it, and then deliberately boiled hot water and ate a handful of colorful pills that Su Ziye marked for him.

He couldn't let Cheng Mingxiao see his frail appearance, he wanted to be in a good state to spend this year with Cheng Mingxiao.

After all, next year, I don't know if there will be a chance to have this New Year's Eve dinner together.

A handful of medicine filled Gu Qiyu's half-full stomach to the brim.

After eating and drinking enough, Gu Qiyu half-lyed on the sofa on the second floor to relieve his stomach discomfort, and at the same time took out his mobile phone to order takeaway. Fortunately, there are still many supermarkets delivering on December 29.

Cheng Mingxiao likes spicy food, so he needs to buy more chili peppers. Cheng Mingxiao likes to eat beef brisket soup with tomato, so he should prepare more beef brisket. There is also fish to buy mullet, which has less spines and more meat, which indicates that there will be surplus every year... Finally, Gu Qiyu bought it for himself After eating two catties of clams, he suddenly wanted to drink the seafood soup made by Cheng Mingxiao.

That was the first dish Cheng Mingxiao cooked for Gu Qiyu.

At that time, they lived in an eight-square-meter basement. After putting a bed in the room, there was almost no room.

But even in such an environment, Cheng Mingxiao still bought a rice cooker, and if they didn't have any entertainment at night, they would go back and order some noodles in clear soup, adding two spoons of chili sauce at most.

Once, a student taught by Gu Qiyu won an award for his painting. His parents were overjoyed and gave him an extra 200 yuan for tuition.Gu Qiyu thought that he and Cheng Mingxiao hadn't eaten meat for a long time, and when they passed by the seafood stall, they hesitated and only bought two catties of fresh clams.

That night, Cheng Mingxiao cooked the first serious dish for Gu Qiyu——seafood soup, no sesame oil, no eggs, no coriander, just a little salt.

Gu Qiyu remembered that at that time, he was holding a big white porcelain bowl, sitting on the bed in the room, drinking it was really happy and satisfying.

Cheng Mingxiao stood holding another white porcelain bowl and cried silently under the dim light, tears pattering down on the cracked concrete floor.

He said: "I, Cheng Mingxiao, swear that I will never disappoint Gu Qiyu in this life. In the future, I will definitely take Gu Qiyu to see the most beautiful scenery and eat the best food!"

Gu Qiyu raised his head and looked out the window. There was heavy snow falling between the sky and the earth, and the endless sea not far away was churning with huge waves in the wind. Several seagulls were flying around on the sea.

Gu Qiyu thought, in the past few years, the most beautiful scenery he has seen may be the sea outside the window on the second floor of this villa, right?And the best food he has ever eaten... If going out to socialize and eat is considered food, he can't tell which hotel's dishes are the most suitable for him.

As if suddenly remembering something, Gu Qiyu got up and went into the study.

Half of the study room is the company's documents, the other half is Gu Qiyu's books, and there is also a cabinet, which is used to store some tools Gu Qiyu needs for painting and some drawings he made in college.

Gu Qiyu hadn't used those tools for many years, and the last time he used them seemed to be for his graduation homework.

Gu Qiyu dug out an old painting from the pile of old sketches.It is said to be a painting, but it is actually just a semi-finished product. The pencil outline on it is exactly the sycamore tree that Gu Qiyu sat in the car and dreamed of, and Cheng Mingxiao under the tree.

Gu Qiyu spread the drawing paper on the table, took out a pencil, and drew the outline next to Cheng Mingxiao. He was extremely focused, and he was more serious than usual when he stayed up late to read the contract.

From the dim light outside the window, the outline to the fall of darkness, and the color from the hour in the morning to a quarter past four.

When the sound of a key opening the door came from downstairs, Gu Qiyu panicked and hid the almost finished painting in the cabinet.

When closing the cabinet door, Gu Qiyu felt a little sweet in his heart. This painting was his New Year's gift to Cheng Mingxiao, and the rest should be made up some time today, and it should be sent out on the first day of the new year.

Cheng Mingxiao tiptoed upstairs, thinking that Gu Qiyu was sleeping, but as soon as he went upstairs and turned on the light, he saw Gu Qiyu coming out of the study with a gentle smile on his face. The smiling face was tired, it was really not pretty.

Cheng Mingxiao couldn't see Gu Qiyu's sickly appearance, so he said, "Did you not sleep, or did you wake up early? Don't you know I'm coming back, and show me a haggard look on purpose?"

Gu Qiyu's smile faded away in an instant.

Looking at Gu Qiyu for the past two years, Cheng Mingxiao has always felt a little uncontrollably irritable. It may be because of his psychology. He always feels that Gu Qiyu is suspected of controlling him.

For example, when he came home late, Gu Qiyu wanted to call to ask where he was.

For example, he went to entertain Gu Qiyu and asked him to drink less alcohol.

In fact, Cheng Mingxiao sometimes knows that he is purely guilty of thinking like this, as long as there is no socializing with Gu Qiyu present, he usually socializes on Qing'er's bed.

He just urgently needs to find an excuse for himself to shirk his mistakes.And the best excuse is to push it on Gu Qiyu to relieve Cheng Mingxiao's guilt.

After pushing it for a long time, even Cheng Mingxiao himself believed that he went out to steal food because Gu Qiyu checked him too much, which aroused his rebellion, and the psychological guilt turned into dissatisfaction with Gu Qiyu.

If Gu Qiyu knew that Cheng Mingxiao's dislike for him came from Cheng Mingxiao's own imagination, he wondered if he would indulge himself in believing Cheng Mingxiao's clumsy excuse for not going home.

How innocent is he?But because he loves Cheng Mingxiao, he has to accept Cheng Mingxiao's backbiting framing.

But he is Gu Qiyu, and Gu Qiyu loves Cheng Mingxiao with tolerance and tolerance to the bone.

When he heard Cheng Mingxiao's reprimand, he was not annoyed except that his smile disappeared, he only thought that Cheng Mingxiao was angry with him because he messed up the cooperation with Yan's Group before.

Before, Cheng Mingxiao made an appointment with the president of Yan Group to discuss a big project, and they clearly agreed on a time, but Gu Qiyu couldn't get up that day because of a stomachache.

The entire planning and cooperation details were handled by Gu Qiyu, Cheng Mingxiao had no choice but to change the time with Yan Shi.

After finishing a series of examinations, he asked the doctor about Gu Qiyu's condition, but the doctor said, "There should be nothing wrong, stomach cramps are more likely, but the specific results will not be known until the examination report."

Simple stomach cramps, lost the time for cooperation negotiations with Yan's Group, Yan Zimo, the president of Yan's Group, is notoriously difficult to deal with, and after that, when he called again, he always replied that there was no time. It took half a year.

For this reason, Gu Qiyu felt very guilty. Later, he always thought that he should have endured that day, and if he endured it, the relationship between him and Cheng Mingxiao might not be so stiff.

Or, after that examination, he should go to get the examination report. At that time, maybe it was only in the middle stage of gastric cancer, and the time left for him would not be as rushed as it is now.

Cheng Mingxiao took it for granted that he blamed all the faults on Gu Qiyu's hypocrisy.

Cheng Mingxiao felt that it should be the two years of neglect that made Gu Qiyu want to use this clumsy method to arouse his sympathy, win some sympathy from him, and then greet him with care and concern.

After all, in his consciousness, Gu Qiyu was the one who would win the contract until his stomach bleeds, why can't he even bear the stomachache now?It must be because of his connivance in the past few years that made Gu Qiyu proud, so he lost his importance in the company's affairs.

He loves Gu Qiyu, and his young lover has supported him so far, so he will not give up easily, but he wants Gu Qiyu to recognize the reality, to realize that Cheng Mingxiao is not a man anyone can control, and neither can Gu Qiyu.
