A thousand years

Coughing lightly, Gu Huai looked at the camera facing him in front of him, a little unaccustomed, his brows furrowed imperceptibly, and after a while, realizing that this was to surprise Gu Ruofan, his eyes slowly softened down.

"Happy birthday, Xiaofan." The man looked at the camera with a low voice, like long-brewed mellow wine.

After thinking for a while, Gu Huai was slightly silent for a moment, and then smiled slowly.

"You saw this video, my brother may have left you for nearly two years. I'm sorry I can't be with you, um, brother asked Mo Xiangnan to prepare you a surprise, are you satisfied?"

After adjusting his posture, Gu Huai leaned forward a little, getting closer to the camera, against the light, his eyes were reflected in the camera, like fine black jade raised by white crystals.

It's rare to have such patience, Gu Huai's voice is extraordinarily deep, in such an afternoon, it sounds like a cello, faintly magnetic, the ears of the listeners are a little numb, and the heart can't help but calm down.

"It may be six years since I left you." Gu Huai thought for a while, "Well, my baby brother will be 16 years old at that time, and he will be a big kid."

"When I'm not around, don't run around without shoes; remember to dry your hair before you go to bed after washing; eat a little more for each meal, and my brother hopes to see you at first sight when I come back. You are healthy and healthy." Healthy." Sure enough, he still wasn't used to such a warm and affectionate line, even if it was his younger brother who he held in the palm of his hand and doted on, Gu Huai was still not used to it.

Crossing his hands, he raised his head and looked at the camera, Gu Ruofan's delicate face appeared in his mind, and the man's eyes were soft.

"When I brought you home, I promised that I would protect you well and watch you grow up healthy and healthy."

"I'm sorry that my brother has to leave you for such a long time now, and missed your growth." Gu Huai's eyes were burning, and he felt a little regretful. There was a trace of self-mockery in his eyes, then he shook his head, and continued to speak.

"Maybe you still can't understand what brother said, but I still want to let you know."

"Xiao Fan, there are many, many bad things in this world. Maybe in the years when your brother is not around, you will encounter many, many unhappy things, frustrating things, or things that make you feel painful. Many, many." The man's eyes were as dark as ink, filled with complex and incomprehensible emotions.

He was naturally cold and affectionate, but only for this one child, he always felt that it was not enough to love him from the bottom of his heart.I can't see him frowning, I can't see his tears, it seems that I really owed him in the previous life. In this life, I met and then treated him as my own brother, a bond deeper than blood.He once thought that he would keep this child under his wings for the rest of his life, so that he could grow up safely and happily.

But in the end, he changed his mind.

In the six years since he was not here, this child must grow up strong and brave alone, and face all unknown setbacks and ups and downs.

He smiled slightly, his eyes gentle.

"You are my younger brother, Gu Huai. Your heart is gentler and wider than others. When your brother is not around, you must grow up strong, happy and healthy alone. Don't feel sad because of some small sorrows and pains, remember ?"

"Have you seen the candies prepared for you? It's still the same as before, you can only eat three a day. Well, almost, after you finish eating, my brother will come back."

Looking at the camera, Gu Huai's handsome profile showed a gentle smile, his black eyes were shining brightly, as if he saw Gu Ruofan standing in front of the TV through the camera.

"Happy 12th birthday."

"Grow up quickly, I hope that when I come back, you have grown into a strong, courageous and kind adult."

The video ends abruptly.

Gu Ruofan looked at the frozen picture, Gu Huai's face seemed so close that it was right in front of him, and he could touch it with his hand.Calm and calm, clear and elegant.Under the two stern thick eyebrows, a pair of black pupils are like a deep lake, through the video of the TV, it seems to be watching Gu Ruofan motionlessly, extremely gentle.

He Ran stood behind Gu Ruofan, watched the video quietly, and was shocked in his heart.He had known Gu Huai for more than ten years, but it was the first time that he saw Gu Huai so softly and patiently towards this child so clearly.

Mo Xiangnan had already watched it many times in advance, shrugged his shoulders, and laughed softly, "Hey, I said it before, Gu Huai's cold-blooded face is paralyzed, only when he is facing his brother does he seem to change. Personal." Shaking his head, he stepped forward and patted the child on the head.

"What's the matter, do you look stupid?"

Hearing the sound, Gu Ruofan finally recovered from the video that Gu Huai had recorded for him just now, blinked his eyes, did not speak, and lowered his head to look at the exquisitely packaged sweet candy in his hand, which seemed to be expensive.

"Brother Xiang Nan, thank you."

Thank you for bringing me here, and thank you for bringing me these candies.

Thank you for letting me see Ah Huai. Before he left, he left me such a video.

Hearing the child say thank you, Mo Xiangnan opened his mouth and smiled triumphantly, hugged the child and grinned at He Ran.

But he didn't see, from an angle he couldn't see, Gu Ruofan's young and immature eyes showed a lingering affection that didn't match his age, as well as a moment of deep and intense longing.

Pulling his head out of Mo Xiangnan's tight, suffocating arms, Gu Ruofan asked him for the video disc, hugged him in his arms, and smiled brightly and beautifully that was rarely seen in the past two years.

"Okay, okay, since you've seen the surprise, let's go, let's go, Gu Huai is not here, I'll take his place, and we'll take you to eat delicious food! Young master, I found a good place some time ago!" Mo Xiangnan With a big wave of his hand, he took Gu Ruofan's hand and smiled presumptuously and proudly. Coupled with his extremely delicate and monstrous face, it seemed rare and pleasing to the eye.

Gu Ruofan, who was in a good mood, followed Mo Xiangnan and walked out together, holding the disc in his arms, with a bright smile, which did not fade along the way.

The good place Mo Xiangnan mentioned was a private restaurant located in the city center of a.Quiet amidst the noise, just from the outside, the roof paved with glazed tiles, the solid wood red lacquered and gilded gate, without a signboard, it seems that it is a restaurant that only accepts regular customers.

As soon as Mo Xiangnan's car drove in, a waiter in Tang suit trotted over and bowed to welcome the three of them to get off the car.

"Boss, what do you want to eat today? I'll tell the kitchen to make it right away." The woman in a red satin cheongsam, with exquisite makeup, looked like a capable person with both skills and means.

Hearing her address to Mo Xiangnan, He Ran's eyes flashed with doubt, and he frowned and looked at Mo Xiangnan, "Why didn't I know that you started a catering business?"

The phoenix eyes were raised slightly, and there was a flash of pleasure in his eyes. Mo Xiangnan's face remained unchanged, but the smile on the corner of his mouth deepened. He held Gu Ruofan's hand and said to He Ran, "There are many things you don't know."

"My master snatched this restaurant from someone." After entering the private room, Mo Xiangnan took the menu handed over by the woman in cheongsam, glanced at it casually, then patted Gu Ruofan's head, and asked: " Does the little guy have any taboos?"

Shaking his head, before Gu Ruofan opened his mouth, Mo Xiangnan laughed. With such a bright smile on his already pretty face, his whole person became dazzling, even the waiter standing next to him was stunned for a moment , I can't come back to my senses for a long time.

"I know, I know, Gu Huai said that there is nothing particularly annoying, but he especially likes sweets, right?" He rubbed Gu Ruofan's soft hair, then turned around and confessed to the woman in the cheongsam: "Just go The signature dish here is Liudao, let's serve dessert first, lest the little guy is hungry."

After bowing in response, the woman closed the door and backed out.

Seeing that there were no outsiders in the box, He Ran's expression became serious, and he asked, "What's going on? What do you mean you snatched it from someone else?"

Mo Xiangnan grew up with the few of them. Although he is not as exaggerated as Gu Huai's cold-blooded, he has always been perverse and willful.This time, he snatched such a large private restaurant from someone else?

For He Ran's seriousness, Mo Xiangnan seemed extremely indifferent, shrugged his shoulders, narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, and a pair of amber eyes appeared in his mind.

Being able to open such a large area of ​​land to open a private restaurant in the center of A without putting up a sign is enough to show that this place is extraordinary. Why did he look at Mo Xiangnan suspiciously, and was about to continue talking, but the door was opened The sound was interrupted.

The dishes were served very quickly, and waiters wearing blue and white porcelain printed cheongsams came in one after another carrying plates. Soon, the room was filled with a strong aroma of food.

"Let's eat, why are you talking so much nonsense? Is this young master what kind of person do you think?"

"Yes!"

"Yes!"

Gu Ruofan and He Ran both spoke at the same time, then looked at each other, and burst out laughing.

Mo Xiangnan's exquisite face suddenly darkened, and he rubbed Gu Ruofan's hair with a gloomy face.

"Little heartless, who prepared a surprise for you today and brought you to eat delicious food? Now it's towards you, Brother He Ran?"

Gu Ruofan covered his mouth and laughed. While stuffing a candy into his mouth, feeling the sweetness spreading in his mouth, he turned his head and looked at Mo Xiangnan.

"Why doesn't brother care about you?"

"That's right, look at your arrogant virtue." He Ran shook his head, picked up his chopsticks and started eating.

It was really good.Very common ingredients, but it seems that because there are not too many seasonings added, there is a strong aroma of the ingredients themselves, and the saliva of the hooked person begins to secrete unconsciously.

"Hey, by the way, return Buddha Jumping Wall." Pressing the service bell, Mo Xiangnan looked to the two and explained: "The Buddha Jumping Wall here is different from the seafood stew in other places. I ate it once and forgot to order it just now. Very good."

Not long after, the cheongsam woman came in again.

"What about the Buddha jumping over the wall that I ate here last time? Another one."

But this time, the woman didn't nod immediately, but instead showed a hint of embarrassment. She frowned slightly and said hesitantly, "Buddha Jumping Wall only serves [-] copies a day... The last one for today has just been reserved..."

Seeing this, Gu Ruofan said, "Brother Xiang Nan, there are so many dishes that are enough to eat anyway, so you don't need to order any more."

Half of Mo Xiangnan leaned back slightly, leaned lazily on the stool, and rubbed Gu Ruofan's head, "What nonsense? Today is your 12th birthday. That guy Gu Huai told me two years ago, Delicious food and drink are waiting for you."

As he said that, he turned his head to look at the woman in the cheongsam, narrowing her phoenix eyes slightly, "Which table of guests ordered the last Buddha Jumping Wall?"

Because there is no signboard, and the consumption is limited to high-end customers, basically the people who can come here to eat basically know each other.So Mo Xiangnan was thinking, if they are familiar with each other, let's negotiate and ask them to let this dish out.

The cheongsam woman's face was even more strange, a little hesitant, and a little hesitant to speak.

"...The last one was reserved by the big boss."

As soon as these words came out, Mo Xiangnan's face changed suddenly.He Ran also looked over with some doubts, "Big boss?"

The long and narrow eyes narrowed into a line, and the smile on Mo Xiangnan's face became even brighter.

"Mo Zhixu gave this place to me, and you still call him the big boss? Huh?"

The cheongsam woman lowered her head, unable to see the expression, but dared not speak any more.

He Ran frowned tightly when he heard the words Mo Zhixu. He naturally knew about the affairs between Mo Xiangnan and Mo Zhixu. This private restaurant turned out to be owned by Mo Zhixu?

While he was in a daze, Mo Xiangnan had already pushed aside the stool and walked out. It seemed that he was looking for the people at Mo Zhixu's table.

"Brother He Ran, brother said before that Mo Xiangnan and Mo Zhixu are enemies." Gu Ruofan looked at He Ran's complicated face and said softly.

Patting Gu Ruofan on the head, He Ran smiled softly, "Xiao Fan, go follow that guy Mo Xiangnan, every time you see Mo Zhixu, you can't control your emotions, don't let him get nervous in public. "

Blinking, "Brother He Ran, why don't you go?"

"..." He Ran was a little dumb, but didn't speak.

Gu Ruofan smiled lightly, stood up, followed Mo Xiangnan's back and chased him out.

"Mo Zhixu, did you forget something?" Mo Xiangnan stood in the corridor, his phoenix eyes raised slightly, and he looked at the man's expressionless face with some hesitation. He provoked him with an indifferent look.

"This place is already yours. I haven't forgotten it." Mo Zhixu lowered his head and glanced at Mo Xiangnan, before turning around and entering the box.

"You stop for me!"

"Anything else?"

"Is the last Buddha jumping over the wall given by you? I don't care, you return it to me!"

"I think you also forgot one thing." Mo Zhixu turned around lightly, a pair of amber pupils reflected the warm yellow light above his head, flickering faintly.

"what's up?"

Mo Zhixu leaned over fiercely, grabbed the man's chin, and pressed his lips on it with great force, and his lips and teeth intertwined.

The light above his head reflected Mo Xiangnan's face, kissing fiercely, the corners of his eyes were reddish, he was infatuated for a moment.

"Even if I give this place to you, I'm still a guest here." Mo Zhixu sent Mo Xiangnan away, turned around, and a voice came from above his head.

Before Mo Xiangnan had an attack, he walked into the box without looking back.

On the other side, Gu Ruofan, who saw from beginning to end, hid in a corner with a blushing face.

It turns out that Mo Xiangnan and this man named Mo Zhixu... are a couple?

In his eyes, the intense kiss between the two just now was like a blockbuster.After a long time, after calming down the turmoil in his heart, Gu Ruofan rubbed his cheeks, turned around and prepared to go into the box.

"Huang Dong, go slowly, well, there is still a chance in the future."

Gu Ruofan, who was about to open the door to enter, was attracted by the noise, turned his head, and saw a tall man in a suit that was expensive at first glance, shaking hands with a middle-aged man to say goodbye.

With a heartbeat, Gu Ruofan stopped the movements in his hands.

The moment the man turned around, Gu Ruofan froze in place.

All the blood in his body rushed to the top of his head, his hands and feet were cold, and he stood there, not even knowing what to do.
