A thousand years

Gu Ruofan's movements paused, his face turned pale, and he withdrew his hand nonchalantly.

Maybe he was too optimistic. Things like brotherly love, let alone in the Gu family... It's not so easy, it will be accepted.

Seeing the boy's expression, Gu Huai understood what he was thinking, raised his hand and patted Gu Ruofan's shoulder, looked at him and nodded slightly to express his relief.

Taking a deep breath, Gu Ruofan tried his best to ignore An Yarong's indifferent tone, stepped forward, and grabbed her hand.

"Mom, we're back."

As soon as the young man said this, An Yarong's eyes turned red almost instantly.

I haven't seen each other for a month, but it seems like a long time. As a mother, seeing her two sons standing in front of her, no matter how big the mistake is, what can't be forgiven?

Turning her body away and walking in front, An Yarong paused slightly, without turning her head.

"Still coming in? The white jade soup made by Wu Ma...is almost cold."

Hearing this, Gu Ruofan was startled suddenly, and turned to look at Gu Huai in disbelief.

Seeing the boy's widened round eyes, Gu Huai nodded slightly, stepped forward and held Gu Ruofan's hand, interlocking his fingers tightly, "Mom, she has already accepted us."

"...Really? Brother, is what you said true?" Shocked by the sudden news, Gu Ruofan couldn't react, Gu Ruofan held Gu Huai's hand tightly in surprise and disbelief, and asked repeatedly road.

Gu Huai nodded.

If he hadn't accepted it, how could he have gone to Mr. Gu to intercede over and over again; how could he have told Wu Ma early to make Gu Ruofan's favorite white jade soup.

Ignoring all the scheming and tricks she used in it, An Yarong still loves Xiaofan after all.

Because of love, so reluctance.

Because of love, so come true.

"Why are you standing there? If you don't go in, the white jade soup will really be cold." Gu Huai looked at Gu Ruofan, who was standing still, and said softly, a smile flashed in his eyes.

"Brother, I'm actually very satisfied."

Gu Ruofan stood in front of Gu Huai, lowered his head slightly, and said in a low voice: "Really, I am very satisfied."

"You have always taken care of me. Although Mom didn't say anything, I can tell that it's a huge improvement if you don't force us to separate, isn't it? Brother, thank you very much."

Gu Ruofan finally raised his head and stared deeply at Gu Huai, the boy's eyes were slightly red.

He is not a fool.

In less than three months, Gu Huai took him home, which meant that the man in front of him, when he didn't know it, had put in a lot of effort to be absolutely sure.

Changed An Yarong, who was crying and begging them not to be together, into the present one, who saw them holding hands, and didn't say much.

This is Gu Huai.

In his past and present lives, he will always be like this.

Solve all the things well, give yourself all the things you desire and desire.

Gu Huai raised his hand, wiped the teardrops from the corners of the boy's eyes, shook his head and chuckled, "Aren't you happy to go home? Why are you crying, go in."

The boy turned around and walked in front, Gu Huai followed behind.

Looking at his slender figure, a complicated and deep meaning suddenly appeared in Gu Huai's eyes, the waves were turbulent, and the dark tide was surging.

Xiaofan, I only love you in my whole life.

You must, please, don't let me down.

The dinner table.

The atmosphere seemed a little weird.Gu Shengjie sat on top of the chairman with a stern face, he only ate and didn't talk, and he didn't even share his eyes with Gu Ruofan and Gu Huai.

As for An Yarong, she kept picking up food for Gu Ruofan, and kept moving, but she kept silent.

After a meal, almost everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

Gu Shengjie was the first to put down his chopsticks, his face was cold and expressionless, "Gu Huai came with me to the study."

Gu Ruofan's heart tightened, and he immediately looked at Gu Huai. At the same time, the man turned his head, gave Gu Ruofan a relieved look, and followed Gu Shengjie upstairs.

Only Gu Ruofan and An Yarong were left in the living room.

An Yarong held the chopsticks and was still picking up vegetables for Gu Ruofan, until the bowl was completely full and couldn't fit anymore, Gu Ruofan finally raised his head and looked at An Yarong.

"Mom, don't pinch, I'm full."

"...I'm full, um, mom won't hold it anymore."

An Yarong's voice trembled for some reason.The photos that had been sent to Gu's house before appeared in her mind, Gu Ruofan and Gu Huai went to the dirty vegetable market together, but they didn't even want to buy a piece of meat.

Taking a deep breath, An Yarong finally shifted her gaze to Gu Ruofan's face, and looked at the boy who had been away from home for more than a month seriously.

"Thin."

One sentence, two words, made Gu Ruofan choke his throat instantly, staring at An Yarong in a daze, speechless.

An Yarong smiled to herself, looked at Gu Ruofan, raised her hand and stroked his hair.

"Mom will ask you again, do you really like Ah Huai, do you want to be with him?"

Gu Ruofan nodded.

After a pause, An Yarong recalled the last time she went to Wu's house and saw the husband and wife who had lost their son, sitting in the empty living room, crying like rain.Looking at Gu Ruofan, who was obviously thinner, he felt a pain in his heart.

"Mom supports you, as long as you are happy...others, it doesn't matter."

"mom…"

Gu Ruofan trembled suddenly, and raised his head to look at An Yarong in disbelief.

The good news came so fast and suddenly that it even made him feel a little dizzy.

"This month, Mom has figured it out too." As if she had said it, An Yarong only felt that all the depression that had been stuffed in her heart for the past month had dissipated a lot, and she simply put everything in her heart at once. These words of Zhuanqianhui are all explained clearly.

"Mom used to think, is there any good girl in City A who can be worthy of her, worthy of Ah Huai? But I didn't expect that my two sons are actually in love."

An Yarong frowned slightly, and held Gu Ruofan's hand with some distress.

"As parents, we just wish you well and have no other intentions. Mom begged you at the time, can't you like others? Why do you have to like your brother? I didn't expect that this begging actually forced you and A Huai gone."

Thinking back to Gu Huai and Gu Ruofan's hardships in the past month, An Yarong only felt extremely heartbroken, and even ignored the awkwardness in her heart about the established fact that the two were together.

"Mom doesn't have any other requests..." Taking a deep breath, An Yarong smiled at Gu Ruofan, "Actually, if you think about it carefully, there's nothing wrong with it."

"Looking at you growing up, Ah Huai has a cold temper. Even a mother like me seems to be separated by a layer of something. And you, although not my own, are closer than my own. Once I heard you call me mom, I felt as if there was something in my heart, and I couldn't help but feel soft-hearted."

"Xiaofan, don't blame mom, really, don't blame me. I just think...would it be better for you to have marriage and children? I just hope you are well, just hope you are well..."

An Yarong's eyes were red, and she was sitting next to Gu Ruofan, speaking incoherently.

"Mom, look," Gu Ruofan raised his left hand in front of An Yarong, pointing at the ring that he and Gu Huai bought for 60 yuan, the boy's voice was very soft and very small.

"This is my elder brother. He moved more than 400 iron shelves at a car wash and earned 60 yuan to buy it."

Looking at An Yarong smiling, Gu Ruofan didn't know how to describe it so that An Yarong could understand the feeling in his heart, "I'm not gay, Mom, can you understand? I just like my brother, I just, just want Be with him."

Hugging Gu Ruofan, An Yarong nodded.

"Although it may take some time to accept it, ah..." An Yarong patted Gu Ruofan on the back, "Mom won't object to you anymore."

"Xiaofan, you are mother's son, and so is Ah Huai, I just hope you are well...happy..."

study.

Gu Shengjie looked at his son and sighed.

"For so many years, including me, everyone thinks that you are the best heir of the Gu family's generation."

Standing in front of the desk, Gu Huai didn't have any expression on his face, the edges and corners were sharp, with a little silence and calmness, his black eyes were deep and calm like the sea.

Gu Shengjie shook his head and chuckled, "But all of us underestimated you."

Walking to the wine cabinet, poured two glasses of wine, handed one to Gu Huai, and swirled the dark red liquid in the glass. Gu Shengjie seemed to be talking to himself, or chatting with Gu Huai.

"Your grandpa is old, you have really grown up."

Gu Huai looked at his father, as smart as him, how could he not know what Gu Shengjie was talking about?

Gu Huai only fulfilled Gu Weiguo's three-month bet.

The reason why he came back early was because he used the power that was completely separated from the Gu family to put Gu Weiguo under unbearable pressure.The Gu family's absolute control, and the Gu family's military and political influence.

Everyone, even Gu Shengjie and Gu Weiguo, didn't think of it.

In the short eight years since Gu Huai left, eight years.

The already excellent man in front of him has grown to such an extent that people can't help but look up to him.

After taking a sip of red wine, Gu Shengjie laughed to himself.

"Your mother went to the Wu family that day. The son of the Wu family jumped off the building and died because he liked a man. After she came back, she cried and begged me to let you be together. She doesn't care about other things, as long as you two good."

After a pause, Gu Shengjie looked at Gu Huai.

"Actually, the one who has stayed with us the longest these years is Xiao Fan. Although he is not our own, we treat him more dearly than our own."

Gu Shengjie shook his head, "Maybe it's because you are so good that you always feel... as if there is something separated from us."

"At that time... you were already putting pressure on grandpa, right?"

Seeing that Gu Huai was silent, Gu Shengjie didn't force it. Looking at his son, he half sighed and half sighed, "I used to always think about what kind of woman is worthy of my child, but I didn't expect you In the end, I was with Xiaofan... even willing to deal with my grandfather for him."

Gu Huai's black eyes were deep, he looked at his father, and finally spoke lightly.

"Dad, grandpa is getting old."

"Haha, yes, grandpa is old, and father is also old."

Gu Shengjie walked up to Gu Huai, patted him on the shoulder, and remained silent for a while, "It's been so long... Dad doesn't know what to say."

"Go down and see Xiaofan, this child is also suffering..."

I don't agree with Gu Shengjie's attitude, but from the original point of view, this man who is the father and the head of the Gu family is indeed a big step back.

An Yarong is the mother, she is reluctant.

Gu Shengjie is the father, so how can he really be cruel?

Forget it, believe in time, time is such a great thing.

bedroom.

Gu Ruofan still hasn't regained his composure until now, and sat on the bed in a daze, looking at Gu Huai a little at a loss.

"Brother, Mom said just now that she doesn't object to us?"

"Just now she said while holding my hand, she said that as long as we are happy, it's fine, and she won't oppose us anymore, really!"

Gu Huai nodded, and patted the boy on the back, "Dad just told me so in the study."

Gu Ruofan froze, but the smile on the corner of his mouth couldn't be concealed.

How kind God has been to him.

Suddenly remembered something, Gu Ruofan's eyes lit up, and he stood up abruptly.

Gu Huai raised his eyebrows, wondering, "What's wrong?"

Holding Gu Huai's hand, Gu Ruofan leaned closer to the man's face, "Brother, you said you wanted to play chess with me. Now that you're home, your parents accept that we're together. You play chess with me, okay?"

Gu Huai looked at Gu Ruofan, the young man's eyes were shining. After a moment of silence, Gu Huai nodded.

Gu Ruofan was overjoyed, and quickly moved over there to get the Go.

According to Gu Ruofan's habit, he always held the white stones, so Gu Huai took the black stones first.

Picking up a chess piece, the cold touch caused a deep emotion to flash in Gu Huai's eyes. The place in the heart was empty, as if a grain of gravel had been inserted into it, and it was finely ground, causing deep and shallow pain.

Seeing that Gu Huai hadn't moved for a long time, Gu Ruofan raised his head tentatively and looked at Gu Huai.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?"

With a forced laugh, Gu Huai slowly raised the corners of his lips, suppressing the inexplicable pain in his heart, looking at Gu Ruofan and shaking his head.

Holding the sunspots to play chess, Gu Ruofan followed closely behind.

It wasn't until the real game started that Gu Huai realized that Gu Ruofan's chess style was not similar to his own at 01:30.

"Xiaofan, who did you learn to play chess from?"

During the fall, accompanied by a crisp sound, Gu Huai pretended to ask unintentionally.

Gu Ruofan was taken aback for a moment.

How did he learn to play chess?

In the previous life of Southern Chu.

When Gu Ruofan finished processing all the memorials and walked out of the imperial study, it was already approaching Haishi.

The palace people were holding lanterns on both sides, and Gu Ruofan suddenly understood what it was like for Gu Huai to deal with all the things by himself and walk into the bedroom every day before.

More and more news came from the front.

Princess Qi Yanling of the Northern Qi Dynasty stayed in the Southern Chu camp, refusing to leave every day.

Eat and live with His Majesty Gu Huai, and behave intimately.

It was even rumored that the Princess of Northern Qi had a deep affection for His Majesty and was willing to leave the motherland and follow Southern Chu for His Majesty's sake.

Also because of the help of the Princess of Northern Qi, Southern Chu has won several battles, and some folks have begun to call Qi Yanling the Queen of Southern Chu in advance.

Gu Ruofan never believed it.

How could he believe it? Gu Huai said before leaving that he would triumphantly and take him with him to get the approval of everyone in the world, to see the peach blossoms in southern Xinjiang together, to share the thousands of miles of rivers and mountains hand in hand, and the prosperity and peace of the world .

How could Gu Huai break his promise?

Gu Ruofan didn't believe it.

He absolutely cannot be trusted.

The wind picked up and it was a little cold.

"Has the letter to His Majesty been delivered?"

The palace servants at the side heard Gu Ruofan's question and knelt on the ground tremblingly, "The Seventh Prince... It's been half a month, and I'm afraid he has arrived, but Your Majesty... is busy with military affairs, so he may not have time to reply."

I don't have time to reply...

Gu Ruofan nodded slightly. Nearly three months had passed. Apart from the news from the frontline reporting the progress of the war, Gu Ruofan and Gu Huai had no communication.

Sitting in front of the case, there is no sleepiness.Gu Ruofan was playing Gu Huai's favorite Nuanyu Go, the chess pieces were warm and moist, with a natural warmth.

"Wrong, shouldn't be here."

"It's wrong again. Indecision is the best thing to avoid when playing chess!"

Gu Huai's voice was still in his ears, but the young emperor was already thousands of miles away in armor.

Gu Ruofan set up the chessboard, holding black in one hand and white in the other.

Day and night, as if Gu Huai was still there.Playing chess over and over again.

He learned Gu Huai's posture and movements, imitating the man's chess style and way of thinking.

That's it, day after day, practiced so many times, Gu Ruofan didn't believe in the so-called rumors, he managed the Southern Chu court well, and taught Gu Huai so much about how to play chess.

He was waiting for Gu Huai to return.

When his thoughts gathered, Gu Ruofan suddenly realized that he had been holding Baizi for a long time.

Staring at Gu Ruofan who was distracted, the subtle pain and complexity in Gu Huai's heart once again hit his heart.

Snapped!

The chess pieces landed.

"It was with a very important person..." Gu Ruofan raised his head, met Gu Huai's gaze, and stared deeply at the man in front of him, "I learned from a very important person..."

important person...

Gu Huai was stuck in his throat, and his hands were clasped under the table until they turned blue, but his face looked nonchalant, he nodded and remained silent.

Gu Ruofan looked at Gu Huai's expression, trying to see something unusual on the man's face.

But Gu Huai seemed to be only concentrating on the chess game in front of him, without even raising his head.

"you lose."

After falling down, Gu Huai's voice was low, looking at Gu Ruofan,

Looking down at the chess game, it was so true... Gu Ruofan smiled, not feeling disappointed at all when he lost the game, but stared at Gu Huai, and sighed helplessly, "When I was learning, I always lost to..." After a while, " Lost to the man who taught me..."

Gu Ruofan didn't notice how complex and depressive emotions flashed in Gu Huai's eyes during the half-second he paused.

"Brother, will you often play chess with me in the future?"

Before Gu Ruofan finished speaking, he was roughly interrupted by Gu Huai.

The man pushed the chessboard, and before Gu Ruofan could react, he stood up.

Somewhat puzzled, he frowned slightly and looked at Gu Huai, "Brother, what's wrong?"

Taking a deep breath, suppressing all the turbulent emotions in his heart, Gu Huai looked at Gu Ruofan, at himself reflected in the young man's eyes, clenched his fists tightly, Gu Huai nodded, and slowly raised the corners of his lips.

"as long as you are happy."

Gu Huai picked up the clothes hanging on the back of the chair and walked out, pausing slightly without turning back, "The company still has work to do, I'll go out first."

Dazed for a moment and a little at a loss, Gu Ruofan could only nod his head, looking at Gu Huai's leaving back, confused.

But Gu Huai, after walking out of the room, stopped in his tracks.

Raise your hand and caress your chest.

Twitching pain.

Gu Huai raised his head slightly and leaned against the wall, feeling as if a piece of his heart had been gouged out by life.He never liked Go, but he seemed to be a good learner by nature, playing chess with Gu Ruofan today was a man forced to endure discomfort.

The psychiatrist said that Gu Huai was under too much pressure, so the subconscious escape and rejection were subconscious behaviors of human beings who refused to face danger.

And when Gu Ruofan called his brother one after another, Gu Huai almost endured the pain, wishing to ask directly and shout out.

He wanted to know.

Is it the Ah Huai that Gu Ruofan dreams about every night?

If it was him, why did he always just call him brother.

If not, then...

Holding his forehead and rubbing his temples, Gu Huai, who was tormented by the sudden pain, was a little unconscious.

How ridiculous.

He actually suspected that Gu Ruofan was not in love with him.

As arrogant as Gu Huai, unexpectedly there will be times like this, timid and timid, not daring to ask an answer.

Gu's.

"Tsk tsk tsk, why did you finally change from *si back to tall, rich and handsome today, and still have such a bitter face, as if someone owes you millions?" As soon as he finished speaking, Mo Xiangnan knocked himself on the head, Slightly raised the phoenix eyes, with a bit of a tease, "Look at what I said, President Gu Huai probably never put these millions and hundreds of thousands of dollars in his eyes, did he?"

Gu Huai lowered his head to look at the document, and didn't even look at Mo Xiangnan.

The reason why Mo Xiangnan came back here was because he received a call for help from He Ran.Gu Huai, who had finally returned, was even more terrifying than before. He exuded the demonic aura from hell all over his body, causing all the employees in the entire office building to tremble, fearing that he might not be doing something right and could not keep up with Gu Huai's rhythm. .

Seeing that Gu Huai ignored him for a long time, Mo Xiangnan made fun of himself, shrugged his shoulders, opened the stool and sat in front of Gu Huai's desk.

He tapped vigorously on the table.

"Hey, can't you see me? You can't see me with such a handsome guy sitting in front of you?"

Gu Huai finally raised his head and glanced up and down at Mo Xiangnan.

The collarbone is exposed, and the extremely bright dark purple shirt...is it coquettish rather than handsome?

"Mo Zhixu agrees to let you come out dressed like this?"

"..." As soon as these words came out, Mo Xiangnan fell silent.

After obtaining satisfactory results, Gu Huai raised his eyebrows, lowered his head, and once again immersed his mind in the document in front of him.

Mo Xiangnan finally came to his senses, "Damn it, you will die if you don't mention Mo Zhixu."

"Where is Xiaofan? Didn't I hear that even the old man of the Gu family was taken care of by you, so no one dares to have any objections to you being together?" Mo Xiangnan moved closer to Gu Huai and sighed. After all, he has known Gu Huai for so many years. , He really never let himself down.

Even things like coming out of the closet were done with great vigor and domineering.

Mentioning Gu Ruofan, Gu Huai's pupils suddenly constricted, and a complicated and inexplicable light flashed in them.

Seeing Gu Huai's expression, Mo Xiangnan was a little puzzled, "Didn't you fight again? It shouldn't be..."

Gu Huai closed the document in his hand, stood up and was ready to drive away.

With quick eyes and quick hands, Mo Xiangnan grabbed Gu Huai's arm.

"Don't, if you don't tell me, I'm going to ask Xiaofan."

Gu Huai paused, a cold light flashed in his eyes, and he stared closely at Mo Xiangnan.

The man shrugged his shoulders, and met Gu Huai's gaze without fear, "Don't do this, I was afraid of you before, now, hehe..." Mo Xiangnan smiled slyly, and grabbed Gu Huai. The biggest weakness in this life, how could he still be afraid of him?

Gu Huai sighed and rubbed his forehead.He really didn't know how a man like Mo Zhixu was tied up by Mo Xiangnan.

He sat back in his seat, spread his hands, raised his head and looked at Mo Xiangnan.

"What on earth are you here for?"

Mo Xiangnan raised his eyebrows, "I just came to see if you and Xiaofan had a fight."

"No."

"Without you, would you have such a dead expression?" Shaking his head, Mo Xiangnan sighed in his heart, even for a man like Gu Huai, his performance after falling in love with someone is pitifully low in EQ.

"Tell me, let Mo Xiangnan, the master of emotion, come and analyze it for you."

Gu Huai frowned even tighter, moved back a little, simply ignored Mo Xiangnan, kept his mouth shut and said nothing.

"Oh, don't be so cold." Mo Xiangnan leaned in front of Gu Huai, smiling maliciously, "You can't stop laughing at others except Xiaofan in this life, right? I'm the little boy you've known for more than 20 years. ah."

"Come, come, tell me, what is it that makes President Gu so confused."

Gu Huai remained silent, not even raising his eyelids.

Silently raised a middle finger in his heart, Mo Xiangnan curled his lips, "Looking at your sullen look... you deserve the quarrel!"

"Let me tell you, when two people get along, just like that guy Mo Zhixu and I, the important thing is to communicate, do you understand communication?" Mo Xiangnan rambled, "You don't know what he was holding back in the past. In my heart, I also held back in my heart, what a misunderstanding we had."

"So, as a senior, I sincerely advise you to communicate with Xiaofan more if you have anything to do. What's on your mind, what's on his mind, how will he know if you don't ask?"

Mo Xiangnan was still muttering non-stop, but Gu Huai seemed to have figured something out in his mind, a bright light flashed in his black eyes, he picked up the clothes on the nearby hanger and walked out go.

"Hey, what are you doing? Where are you going?"

Mo Xiangnan chased after him, but was left behind by Gu Huai, and the door was closed with a bang.

"Uh...brother, didn't you go to the company?" Gu Ruofan stared blankly at Gu Huai who came back suddenly, and asked with some doubts.

Gu Huai did not speak, and closed the door of the room with his backhand.

Taking Gu Ruofan's hand, he walked inside and sat down.

"I'm back because I have a few questions to ask you."

Staring at Gu Ruofan closely, the man's black eyes were shining with deep and complex light, his voice was deep and deep, but it carried a seriousness that was hard to ignore.

"Xiao Fan, do you know that when you sleep... you have the habit of talking in your sleep?"

After a pause, Gu Huai slowly raised his thin lips, staring deeply at Gu Ruofan.

The young man had some vague guesses in his heart, paused for a moment, lowered his voice, and asked tentatively: "Talking in sleep... what do you mean in sleep talking?"

"Can you tell me, who was the Ah Huai you called when you were dreaming?" Gu Huai looked at Gu Ruofan, saw the boy's suddenly pale face, and his eyes deepened, "You called me brother...so I guess , that person is not me, right?"
