Gong Yuanzhong suddenly smiled softly and said, "When you were in school, every time you came back from City C, I was the one who picked you up."

"Come back tomorrow? Or the day after tomorrow? I'll pick you up?" he asked.

Guan Rong sighed silently.

At this moment, he thought of what Chen Yuezhi did to him last night inappropriately, and suddenly had the urge to forgive everything.He was surprised, and answered Gong Yuanzhong sincerely: "Brother Yuan, we have grown up, you don't have to spoil me like this now. Whether it's because of Guan Li, my grandpa, or something else."

Both of them seemed to have nothing to say, and then Gong Yuanzhong said: "Then I'll hang up."

When Chen Yuechi came back, he brought medicine for relieving hangover symptoms. Guan Rong was taking medicine after eating. Chen Yuechi suddenly asked: "Brother, can you take me to meet me... meet Miss Min?"

With a mouthful of water in his throat, Guan Rong almost choked for a moment.Chen Yue hurriedly approached, bent down and patted him on the back: "Drink slowly."

Guan Rong wiped off the water stains around his mouth, and looked up at Chen Yuechi, but Chen Yuechi lowered his eyes and did not meet him.

After a while of silence, Guan Rong said, "We..."

"I didn't dare before." Chen Yuechi rarely interrupted him.

Guan Rong then continued to remain silent.Chen Yuechi seemed to have finally tidied himself up, he squatted in front of Guan Rong, looked up at him seriously: "Brother, I have never been angry with you, I didn't dare before."

"I understand, it's timid to be close to home. You haven't seen your sister for a long time." Guan Rong smiled.

"No, it's just one aspect." Chen Yuechi lowered his head and looked away again, "I'm afraid you already know what I... what I've done. I'm afraid you already know that I'm a... murderer."

Guan Rong was startled, and rested his chin with his hands, forcing him to raise his head and meet his gaze.His eyes dodged, Guan Rong was palpitating, and said frankly: "Xiao Yue, I don't know what you did before, and I don't know what happened to you and your sister. She is just like you, she has never dared to move , but she has been looking at you." Seeing Chen Yuechi's surprised face, he gently touched the corner of his mouth and said with a smile, "She loves you very much."

Chen Yuechi trembled slightly, and his breathing became heavy.Seeing that he couldn't help but want to speak, Guan Rong said: "It's okay, don't say it now, when you really want to say it."

The ticket was booked for the next day, and the senior sister went back to work. Because the two of them finished the expected things ahead of time, they had a whole day free.

Guan Rong asked Chen Yuechi where he wanted to go, Chen Yuechi thought for a long time, and said: "The school I went to yesterday seems to be in a university town? The one next to it seems to be C University. I have heard of this school before when I was studying."

Guan Rong's heart tightened slightly, and he said with a smile, "Want to go and see?"

"Hmm." Chen Yue smiled, "Is it possible?"

Guan Rong patted his head: "Of course."

You can't be so unlucky.

It turned out that luck was really that bad.

Passing by the entrance of the university I went to yesterday, Guan Rong sighed in his heart as soon as he entered the side entrance of University C.

It was a ginkgo avenue, full of golden color from late autumn to winter, but now there are bare branches.People who were extremely familiar in the past came from an extremely familiar intersection, and stopped when they saw Guan Rong.

Chen Yuechi next to him also noticed something was wrong, and asked Guan Rong: "Brother, that person has been watching us, is it someone you know?"

"Hmm." Guan Rong replied vaguely.

During his first two years in Sunken Square, he occasionally wondered whether he would see Zhang Ke again, and what his reaction should be when he saw him.He didn't expect the reunion to be so unexpected and so ordinary.

Guan Rong didn't have any emotions, not to mention thoughts.He didn't want to go up and ask questions, let alone listen to Zhang Ke's words.He just thought Zhang Ke was a little funny. For a moment, Zhang Ke looked like he had seen a ghost.

No wonder, Guan Rong was supposed to be a person who had left the world to Zhang Ke.

He took Chen Yuechi and continued to walk forward, and the distance between them was getting closer and closer. He didn't want to stop at first, but he heard Zhang Ke say, "Long time no see."

His expression was unnatural, there should be some unspoken title after "Long time no see".Guan Rong found it funny even more, he really laughed and said, "Zhang Ke, long time no see."

Chen Yuechi suddenly turned his head and glanced at him.

The weird silence lasted for two seconds. Guan Rong pulled Chen Yue to hold him. Just as he passed by, Zhang Ke suddenly said, "Shall we have dinner together tonight? Rong."

Guan Rong's hand was still on Chen Yuechi's wrist, and he clearly felt that Chen Yuechi froze when he heard this sentence.

"Okay." Guan Rong let go of Chen Yuechi.

As long as Chen Yue insists on thinking, he can always pretend to be whatever he wants when he is awake.Especially the silent one at the moment, as if he didn't know anything, and it seemed that nothing had happened.

Guan Rong originally felt that it was a bit redundant to agree to Zhang Ke's meal together, but he didn't think so when he looked at Chen Yuechi.

They went back to the hotel, Guan Rong said to Chen Yuechi when they went out, "Let's find a place to eat in the afternoon, or you can go shopping nearby by yourself."

"Okay." Chen Yue responded with a smile.

Guan Rong looked at him seriously for a while, and Chen Yue looked a little surprised, and looked away.He walked to the door and took the coat from the shelf: "I may be back later."

I made an appointment with Zhang Ke at a western restaurant, which I used to go to often when I was in school.The booth circles a semi-private space, and the lighting is just right, not awkward or ambiguous.

After ordering something and sitting there, they were silent at first, and then exchanged pleasantries, like an old friend whom Zhang Ke hadn't seen for a long time, Guan Rong didn't listen carefully to what Zhang Ke was saying.From time to time, he looked sideways out of the window, as if to see how the whole city had changed during his absence.

In the middle, Zhang Ke suddenly stopped speaking, but Guan Rong didn't feel anything unusual, but was grateful for his silence.After the silence, Zhang Ke said, "Rong, you were not like this before."

"Not good?" Guan Rong withdrew his mind and asked amusedly.

Zhang Ke said: "You used to never lose your mind when listening to people talking."

Guan Rong was very calm: "Oh."

Zhang Ke frowned, and said again: "Is that boy in the morning your...friend?"

"Who is mine is none of your business?" Guan Rong asked.

Zhang Ke's voice suddenly became a little painful: "Rong."

"Don't call me that." Guan Rong said, "Did you forget my last name? My name is Guan Rong."

The person on the opposite side didn't expect him to speak like this, and was stunned.After a while, he regained his composure, and smiled: "It's my problem, it's been many years, and you're not the same as before."

"How can it be the same as before?" Guan Rong started to look him in the eye.

Zhang Ke looked at him speechless, Guan Rong turned his head to look at the glass window next to him, as if in deep thought.After watching for a while, he looked back and said, "What have I been doing all these years, do you want to hear it?"
