Gu Cheng pushed open the door.

Everything in the house was the same as when he left in the morning, quietly sinking in the darkness, as if he could hear the sound of silence.

He didn't turn on the light, walked to the sofa and sat down familiarly.

The overloaded operation of the body made him feel tired, but the brain was more awake.

No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get sleepy, so he just kept his eyes open and let himself sink into the darkness.

He still remembered what the family looked like when Yan Qin was here.

Every time I haven't got home, I can see the bright yellow light in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room.

Whenever he came back, Yan Qin would obediently sit in the living room and wait for him, then stand up the moment he heard the door open, greet him with a smile on his eyes, and say to him: "You are back."

When Yan Qin just moved away, Gu Teng just felt that the house seemed to be a little empty.

Later, the room grew bigger and colder, as if Yan Qin's departure took its life along with it.

Any noise in the room would be infinitely amplified in his ears.

It gave him a headache.

In the first month after Yan Qin left, the house became more empty, but Yan Qin's presence gradually became clearer.

The dried flowers he bought are still placed in front of the TV cabinet in the living room, the half-eaten medicine box is placed under the coffee table, and his handwritten post-it notes are still stuck on the refrigerator, with the recipes of the dishes that Gu Cheng likes to eat written on them.

He seemed to leave, but also didn't seem to.

It just exists silently in his life, controlling his choice.

I don't know when, Gu Teng will also subconsciously arrange the tableware in the way he likes when arranging the plate, and even his initials automatically appear when typing on the mobile phone.

Yan Qin appeared more and more frequently in his life.

When Gu Teng realized this, he knew that he was finished.

He was more and more afraid to go home, and sometimes he only came back when he really had nowhere to go, but he didn't even dare to turn on the lights.

I just dare to curl up on the sofa and rest for a night.

He can't wander around, because this home is full of memories left by Yan Qin.It turned out that Yan Qin had spent seven years occupying every place here before he knew it.

The sound of rain outside interrupted his recollection.

Gu Teng looked up, only to realize that it was pouring rain outside at some point.

The rain fell densely and urgently, as if the river had burst its embankment, and from time to time there were blue-purple lightning and thunder.

Gu Teng watched the wind and rain outside getting worse.

Suddenly remembered something, took the umbrella and walked out.

He remembered that Yan Qin was very afraid of rain.

Listening to the sound of rain outside, Yan Qin turned on all the lights in the house, hugged the cat into his arms, and shrank into the quilt.

However, this still couldn't stop the sound from outside.

As soon as he got home today, he saw that the sky outside quickly turned cloudy in just a few minutes, and then the black clouds gathered and pressed down gloomyly towards the ground.

Before he could react, he saw that the cloud seemed to be torn apart suddenly. In an instant, countless raindrops poured down in one piece, leaving no time for people to react.

Yan Qin hurried into the room, turned on all the lights, and hugged the dazed-looking cat under the quilt again, only then did he feel better.

Yan Qin was very afraid of rain.

Because when he was a child, he was locked into the attic by Yan Zhu by mistake.

The attic was in disrepair for a long time, and there was no light, only a gray window.

That night, like tonight, there was a sudden heavy rain.

Rainwater poured on the window like money, and there were all kinds of horrible sounds outside because of the wind and rain.

He was too small, and unconsciously approached him as a monster.

When Yan's father and Yan's mother found him, he had already fainted from fright.

Since then, he has been afraid of rain, especially heavy rain.

When I was just married, it suddenly rained in the middle of the night, but Gu Teng couldn't come back because of something. Yan Qin was alone at home and shivered with fright, so he couldn't help calling him.

However, when he finished stammering, there was no sound from the other side for a long time.

"Gu Teng?" Yan Qin thought he didn't believe it, and said again, "I'm really scared."

There was finally an answer from the other side, with a hint of exhaustion in the voice.

"I know." Gu Ting replied.

Yan Qin didn't know whether he believed it or not, but because of this answer, he felt relieved a lot.

So she held the phone and waited obediently for him.

Then waited until the sound of rain outside stopped and the sky gradually brightened.

But Gu Ting still didn't come back.

Looking back on these past events to this day, Yan Qin is still amused by himself.

He was terribly innocent then.

Obviously, Gu Teng might not feel a little bit sad when he died, so why would he care if he was afraid or not?

"Stupid." Yan Qin said as he rubbed the face of the cat beside him, "Don't you think so?"

The cat was sleepy at first, but was woken abruptly by his rubbing, and looked at him with some dissatisfaction.

Seeing this, Yan Qin quickly patted it, "Okay, go to sleep."

Anyway, with a cat by my side, I was not so scared after all.

Seeing the cat sleeping soundly, Yan Qin felt a little sleepy, so he put it in his arms and closed his eyes.

However, before falling asleep, he heard a knock on the door.

Yan Qin froze for a moment, thinking he was hallucinating.

However, the voice did not disappear, and continued to knock down relentlessly.

Yan Qin sat up and walked out with the cat in his arms.

I feel a little uneasy, who will come now?

Not many people knew about his new residence, except Yan Zhu and his parents.

But they definitely won't come at this time.

Thinking of this, Yan Qin couldn't help but mention it.

He held the cat in one hand, picked up the baseball bat leaning against the door with the other, and walked towards the door.

When he reached the door, he didn't rush to open it, but leaned over and looked out through the cat's eyes.

Then he saw... Gu Teng.

Yan Qin:? ? ?

Outrageous.

The knocking on the door continued, but Yan Qin ignored it and raised his hand to pick up the cat in his hand.

He really didn't understand why Gu Teng dared to come.

Did he think he was using a 2G mobile phone and couldn't get online?

I still feel that I can be tolerant to him like before, without any grudges.

Yan Qin felt sick when he thought of the hot search in the morning.

Therefore, it is not intended to open the door for him.

I can't pretend to be at home.

However, just as he turned to go back to the room, the knocking on the door suddenly stopped.

Then, his cell phone rang.

He was standing at the door, and his phone was not muted, so the ringing of his phone quickly spread throughout the room.

Naturally, Gu Teng, who was separated from him by the door, would not lose his hearing.

Yan Qin: "..."

At this time, there was another knock on the door, accompanied by Gu Teng's voice, "Yan Qin, I know you are inside."

If it goes on like this, it is estimated that the neighbors will not be able to see it anymore and join the door-knocking army, so Yan Qin can only go and open the door as if resigned to his fate.

As soon as the door opened, Gu Teng raised his hand against the edge of the door as if he was afraid that he would close it suddenly.

Yan Qin was speechless for a while.

But he still suppressed the fire, raised his eyes to look at him, and asked, "What's the matter?"

Gu Teng held a black umbrella in his hand, but it would be better not to take it, his whole body was drenched, as if he had just crawled out of the river.

Gu Teng nodded, but was interrupted by Yan Qin before he could speak.

"If it's about you and Xu Xi, there's no need to explain it. We're already divorced. You can sleep with whomever you like. It has nothing to do with me. I respect, bless, and wish you happiness."

Gu Teng was stunned for a moment by what he said, but he quickly reacted, raised his eyes to look at him, and quickly explained: "There is nothing between us."

Yan Qin snorted lightly when he heard the words, obviously not believing it.

Gu Teng continued to explain: "His things left me here, I just came to pick them up."

Yan Qin almost laughed out loud when he heard the words, "Really? What is so important? You have to go to the hotel in the middle of the night to pick it up."

The cat in his arms seemed a little impatient, broke free from his arms, and jumped down.

Yan Qin's eyes followed all the way, seeming to ignore Gu Teng in front of him even more.

"I said I don't care. You don't need to explain to me, but you insist on explaining. Not only do you have to explain, but you also want to use this kind of nonsense to fool me. Gu Cheng, you are really interesting. Do you think I will always be in front of you? He's a fool, he obeys your advice and does everything. If you feed me shit, I'll eat it with a smile on my face."

Hearing this, Gu Cheng took a step forward, frowned slightly, and looked at him without blinking.A pair of black pupils were shiny, as if they had just been washed by rain.

He didn't know whether it was cold or uncomfortable, his body trembled slightly, his fists were clenched unconsciously, his throat rolled a few times, and finally he said, "I didn't lie to you."

"Fine, fine, let it be true." Yan Qin said perfunctorily, "Is this what you're doing today? Now that you've finished talking, you can go."

After Yan Qin finished speaking, he put on a posture to see off the guests, but unexpectedly Gu Teng shook his head and replied, "No."

"Then what else is there for you to come?" Yan Qin said helplessly.

Gu Teng glanced at the rain outside, then turned to look at him, his gaze was bright and affectionate under the light.

Yan Qin looked away a little unaccustomed, and then heard him say word by word: "I'm afraid you're afraid, so I came to see you."
