After flirting with a rival

In a daze, Gu Jun, who was lying on the bed, faintly heard some noises.

The light in the living room seemed to be turned on, and the faint light diffused over, trickled into the unclosed bedroom, and shone into his eyes.

Gu Jun moved, and the hand under the blanket habitually moved to the side, but it was cool.

Shen Xingchi used to have the habit of getting up in the middle of the night to find something to eat. At first, the man woke up in shock when he didn't meet anyone, thinking that something had happened to him. Master, it was a false alarm.

Going back and forth like this a few times, Gu Jun got used to it and couldn't get up for a while, so he called him hoarsely.

Shen Xingchi heard the voice, walked back to the door, and asked, "Gu Jun, are you calling me?"

Gu Jun pressed the back of his hand to his forehead, closed his eyes and made some replying gasps.The deep drowsiness dragged on, and the bedroom was pitch-black, urging people to fall into a dream.He struggled to maintain a few traces of clarity: "Hungry again?"

"Yeah." Shen Xingchi replied, "Go to sleep, I'll be right back after I go out."

Gu Jun: "Whatever you want to eat, I'll make it for you."

Shen Xingchi: "No need, I'll go outside and buy two bunches of candied haws."

Gu Jun didn't remember whether he replied, but felt that Shen Xingchi had gone away again, his voice was still hazy and intermittent, and the lamp was always hanging high, which disturbed his sleep.

After struggling to find the mobile phone on the bedside table, he turned it on, and the bright light pierced his eyes.

Gu Jun squinted to inspect, at three o'clock in the morning, probably only ghosts were still selling the so-called candied haws at this time.

He lay down again, amused as if in a dream.It wasn't until he heard the sound of the door opening and keys that he realized that the young master really wanted to go out late at night to find the so-called candied haws, so he got up quickly and got out of bed.

Gu Jun couldn't help yawning when he turned the steering wheel to get out of the parking lot, and Shen Xingchi, who was beside him in good spirits, immediately said, "Want to sleep? Actually, you don't need to come out with me. I'll go around outside, if I can't find it, I will back."

The man thought to himself, at night, there is no one without lights outside, the ghost knows which dead end you will detour into, so you don’t have to worry about death if you stay at home.

But with a calm expression on his face, he said with relief: "It's okay, I just got enough sleep. Why do you suddenly want to eat candied haws?"

"I don't know." Shen Xingchi smacked his mouth, as if he was eager for candied haws in his heart, "I just really want to eat it."

All right, since Gu Jun didn't persuade him in the apartment, naturally he wouldn't make sarcastic remarks after he came out.These days, he was suffering from nausea and other symptoms, and it was rare to find something he wanted to eat. Regardless of whether he could find it in the end, it was worth a try.

At three o'clock in the morning, the sky was strangely dark with very few stars.

The doors of the shops on the street are closed, and the night is shrouded again, a rare bleak scene.

The street lamps were still on, standing among the bushes, shining dimly, attracting groups of fluttering butterflies and moths.Anyway, it added some vitality to this lonely and dark night.

To be honest, Gu Jun has never driven out so late to wander around.

The whole world seemed to be wrapped in a great sleep, but only the two of them were awake.Even the supper stalls, which were full of combat power at night, died down, and the customers dispersed, leaving the boss to clean up the mess.

Under such a background, Gu Jun couldn't help but imagine that they were a pair of mandarin ducks fleeing for their lives, hiding in the corners of the world when the night was dark and no one was paying attention.

After a while, he pressed his eyebrows again, feeling that he was very sick with this thought.

After picking up his mood, Gu Jun first went to the usual snack streets, and after finding nothing, he began to drive around the streets of the city one by one.There were other stalls along the way, but Shen Xingchi showed a lack of interest, and Gu Jun didn't force it, and continued to drive forward.

After driving for more than an hour, the oil level gradually decreased, and almost all places were bypassed, not to mention the candied haws, even the previous stalls disappeared.

Shen Xingchi beside him was chattering at first, but now he completely stopped, slumped on the seat without moving.If it weren't for Gu Jun's attention through the endoscope from time to time, he would feel that he was the only one left in the car.

The black car stopped on the side of the road, and the man took out his mobile phone to check the time.

At this time, he had no sleepiness at all, and his brain was unprecedentedly sober, accompanied by a slight sense of frustration.

Even though he came out and knew that this matter would not be successful, but as expected, he felt extremely sorry for Shen Xingchi and wanted to do something to make up for him.

There is a 24-hour convenience store ahead, shining brightly like a ball of light.

Gu Jun and Shen Xingchi said, got off the car and walked towards the convenience store.

The convenience store was unusually quiet, and the clerk was sitting at the checkout counter, unintentionally attracting rare customers.

Gu Jun ignored it, went in and walked around, saw wild jujube cakes, felt that wild jujube cakes were similar to candied haws, so he picked out wild jujube cakes of various flavors, and took a few bottles of water and Shen Xingchi's usual favorite snacks, Go to the cashier and pay.

When he returned to the car, Shen Xingchi, who was sitting securely in the co-pilot, was tilting his head, leaning against the window, entering a half-awake and half-asleep state.

"Shen Xingchi?" Gu Jun called him softly.

Shen Xing hummed, his eyes sleepy.

Gu Jun stretched out his hand to touch his face, the night in early summer was still slightly cold, after going out for a while, the temperature on his hands dissipated, it was very different from the young master who was always in the car.

Shen Xingchi frowned unconsciously because of the coolness.

Gu Jun quickly withdrew his hand: "I don't have candied haws, I bought some sour jujube cake, do you want to eat it?"

Shen Xing nodded his head late.

Gu Jun unpacked the package and handed it to him.

Shen Xing took it late, feeling drowsy, his appetite was suppressed by the subsequent drowsiness, so he reluctantly ate two tablets.

Gu Jun was sitting in the driver's seat, facing forward, but his ears caught the movement from the side against his will.The sky is no longer all turbid black, but a few wisps of dark blue, as if resisting unwillingly.

There was a deathly silence in the car, occasionally mixed with the sound of breathing.

Gu Jun suddenly felt covered by a strange emotion, which tended to be negative, and wanted to be dying in self-comfort.The fingers hanging down beside him clenched, the warmth was not felt yet, it was still cold and wanton.

"Gu Jun."

A soft voice reached my ears.

He turned his head sideways, and his exposed neck was pulled closer by the young master's fingers. In the next second, a light but warm kiss touched his face, and it was fleeting like a touch of water.

Gu Jun blinked in disbelief, and immediately heard him say: "Thanks for your hard work, my husband came to give you a kiss."

This could have been taken as a joke, or a raving in a daze.But very strangely, all Gu Jun's previous emotions were swept away in an instant, and his whole body was light and light, like stepping into a cloud, filled with sweetness and warmth.

After Shen Xingchi said this, he fell asleep peacefully.

Gu Jun didn't stop, took off his coat silently, and put it on him.

The man looked through the car window again, and the blue hue had spread over the entire sky, and the east was white.Gu Jun suddenly understood that Shen Xingchi possessed such magic power, no matter what the cause and effect were, if the other party could give a little gift in return, he would be willing.

In the next few days, Shen Xingchi's situation was as usual, nothing more than the occasional nausea and temper tantrum, and occasionally lying on the bed and pretending to be dead.

In the morning, after ten o'clock.When Gu Jun went to work, Shen Xingchi lay dead on the bed, not willing to move even the glare of the sun.

While bored, the doorbell of the apartment rang.

One sound after another, if he hadn't promised to associate with Gu Jun long ago, he would have thought that the former Gu Jun came to "collect debts" again.

Shen Xingchi pretended to die on the bed, but the person who knocked on the door rang the doorbell very patiently as if he was sure that he was at home.

There was no way, Shen Xingchi got up in pain, put on his home clothes, went to the bathroom for a quick wash, and came to the door to look at the cat's eyes.

Seeing this, she was so startled that she hurriedly opened the door and called out embarrassedly, "Aunt Mei."

Aunt Mei stood at the door with two bags of vegetables in her hands, smiling kindly at Shen Xingchi.The sunlight in the corridor slanted over and shrouded her surroundings, making her look extraordinarily soft.

Shen Xingchi scratched his messy hair: "Aunt Mei, why are you here? Do you know that I live here?"

Aunt Mei smiled and said, "Mr. Gu asked me to come here. He is busy with work and it is not convenient to come back at noon."

Shen Xing hesitated, thinking that that stinky guy didn't even notify in advance, which made him embarrassing in front of Aunt Mei.

Unexpectedly, Aunt Mei said next: "Mr. Gu didn't tell you? He told me to send you a WeChat message. You are at home. I just knock on the door. Just woke up?"

Shen Xingchi smiled sarcastically.

During this period of time, he was in a state of morning sickness, his mood fluctuated from good to bad, and he didn't even bother to look at his mobile phone when he became irritable.It was the same as before, with the mobile phone on the side playing music, not caring about the news at all.

Aunt Mei probed: "It's not convenient now?"

"No, no, no..." Shen Xingchi called, first took the bag from Aunt Mei, and invited her in, "Sorry, there are no extra slippers in the apartment, you should wear these first."

He took the disposable slippers out of the shoe rack and put them in front of Aunt Mei.

Aunt Mei: "It's okay."

After entering, Aunt Mei stood in the living room and looked at it.

Shen Xingchi put the dishes in the kitchen first, and while no one was looking, he stuck to the wall and slid to close the bedroom door.The quilt on the bed was not folded, it was in a mess, and the pajamas were thrown on the floor, afraid that Aunt Mei would make a joke of it.

Fortunately, Gu Jun would clean and organize the apartment on weekdays, except for the bedroom where he slept, the other places would not be too messy.

Back in the living room, Shen Xingchi went to the water dispenser to get a glass of water, and brought it to Aunt Mei: "Aunt Mei, drink some water, please sit down."

Aunt Mei smiled and nodded, and sat down on the fabric sofa.

Shen Xingchi followed her and sat beside her, rubbing his pants back and forth helplessly.

If it is said that the person who can really make the young master only obey and not refute, besides Father Shen, it is probably this Aunt Mei.It's just that the former is fear, and the latter is closeness and respect, so I don't want to show my bad side in front of the other party.

Back then, he had just lived on the island, and had a bad relationship with Gu Jun.Man, unlike him, is free.Sometimes he is bothered by him, and he can run back to City A to hide for a few days under the pretext of work.

As soon as Gu Jun left, only the young master was left on the island.

The servants understood his temper and stayed away as far as they could.Even if he was pulled to make fun of him, he would still complain about him behind his back.

At that time, only the gentle and warm-hearted Aunt Mei often comforted him and cooked him a lot of delicious food.

Shen Xingchi is not a stubborn stone who can't be warmed up. Even if he doesn't say anything on the surface, he is always grateful to Aunt Mei in his heart.

"Long time no see, Aunt Mei." Shen Xing said late, "I left in a hurry last time, so I didn't have time to say goodbye to you."

If Gu Jun was by his side, seeing Shen Xingchi like this would definitely feel very novel.At this moment, the young master is like a shy young man in front of Aunt Mei, without the slightest perverted domineering.

Aunt Mei: "It was indeed a bit sudden. I was thinking about what kind of soup I would make for you the next day."

Shen Xingchi was inexplicably guilty, like the one who broke the contract first after making an agreement with someone, he hesitated and couldn't speak.

Aunt Mei: "Mr. Gu also left soon after you left, and then our group returned to City A. In fact, we knew from the beginning that we would not stay on the island for long, but we all had a good time during that time. Mr. Shen, you don't have to mind too much."

Shen Xingchi nodded hurriedly.

The two chatted for a while, and when Aunt Mei saw the meal time, she got up and rolled up her sleeves, and said with concern: "Mr. Gu said, Mr. Shen, you have a poor appetite these days."

Shen Xingchi smiled and said: "If you can eat the meals that Aunt Mei cooked, even if you are terminally ill, you will recover immediately."

Aunt Mei was amused by him again, and walked to the kitchen with a smile.

Shen Xingchi walked behind her, helping out as before on the island.

The two continued to chat, one after another, Shen Xingchi told the interesting things he had experienced, and asked Aunt Mei about Gu Jun's childhood, she kept collecting information, and planned to bring it up one day to catch the man by surprise.

The atmosphere in the kitchen is harmonious, laughter is everywhere, and there is nothing unfamiliar.

Although Gu Jun had learned cooking skills from Aunt Mei for a while, he used to be similar to Shen Xingchi, a pampered young master, and Aunt Mei was old-fashioned in terms of experience.

Aunt Mei's method was crisp and neat, with a combination of meat and vegetables. Considering that Shen Xingchi's taste is not good now, she also made an extra appetizer.

The soup pot is steaming, and the carrot and corn ribs soup that has been simmering for two hours is also ready.Opening the lid, the scent was tangy, and when Shen Xingchi smelled it, the glutton in his stomach couldn't help screaming.

Aunt Mei brought a towel and brought the stewed soup to the table. Shen Xingchi washed the two sets of bowls and chopsticks, set them up, and sat across the table impatiently, like a child waiting to be fed, his eyes shining brightly.

For those who cook, the happiness of those who eat is the greatest reward.

Aunt Mei smiled and served Shen Xingchi a bowl of soup first.

Shen Xingchi didn't want to stick to it, said "Aunt Mei, you can eat too", and picked up the bowl to taste.

In the past, he always felt that the meat had a fishy smell, and he would feel nauseous after eating a little.But this time the soup is mellow and sweet, and the carrot and corn stewed just right dissolve the single taste brought by the ribs, making people not feel any greasy.

Shen Xingchi's appetite whetted so much that he couldn't help filling another bowl.Praise again and again.

Aunt Mei sat opposite and propped her chin, with a kind and kind face, she said: "When I was cooking, I guessed that you should like to eat Mr. Shen. In the past, when Madam was pregnant with Mr. Gu, she couldn't eat because of embarrassment. At that time, I Just make soup for her in different ways, Madam loves my soup the most..."

Before he finished speaking, Shen Xingchi, who had been eating well, suddenly let out a sudden cough, and then coughed violently, the bowl in his hand almost fell off first.

Aunt Mei was startled, got up anxiously, and came over to pat him on the back.

Shen Xingchi was choking and coughing, his face was flushed.It was hard to calm down, and he grabbed Aunt Mei's wrist, stumbling and said: "Aunt Mei...you can't talk about some things..."

This is entirely because the speaker has no intention and the listener has the heart. He has been guilty of being a thief for too long, and the other party will just say something casually and put it on his head nervously.

Aunt Mei was slightly confused, the young man's expression looked serious and serious, which made her feel weirdly nervous.

"Oh, Mr. Shen, don't pay too much attention to it. I just said that when my wife was pregnant, I didn't mean you. How could a man be pregnant? My brain can't get around it. I just think of what to say..."

The more Shen Xing listened, the more upset he became. He felt that he was too sensitive, so he let go of Aunt Mei's hand and said silently, "I'm sorry, Aunt Mei."

Aunt Mei shook her head, returned to her seat and sat down: "Mr. Shen, eat it quickly, the taste will change when it gets cold."

Shen Xingchi wanted to say something, opened his mouth, but couldn't say anything, finally nodded, and drank his soup sullenly.

It's just that I feel more and more uncomfortable.
