The sound of the rain outside the window subsided at some point, but when it fell on the window, it still made a crackling sound.

It's just that the horror of the past has long since disappeared, and it looks like a pianist who has nothing to do, playing random music in his spare time.

This makes the room even more quiet.

Yan Qin froze in place, not knowing how to react for a moment.

Qu Maoxing also seemed to feel that he was being abrupt, turned around stiffly, reached out to pick up a bunch of grapes, and tried to change the subject, "Eat some grapes."

Yan Qin reached out to take a bunch of them, tacitly did not mention what happened just now.

The two of them didn't speak for a while, and in the end it was Qu Maoxing who spoke first, breaking the unbearable silence.

"Do you want to take a shower? The hot water is already on. When I went to the bathroom just now, I have prepared the toiletries. They are all new, and you can use them directly."

"Okay, then thank you very much."

"You're welcome. I still have some things to deal with. I'm going to work first. I'm in the study next door. Call me anytime you need it."

"Yeah." Yan Qin nodded.

After Qu Maoxing finished speaking, he turned and walked out.

Yan Qin looked at his back, and finally put the guard in his hand back intact.

After Yan Qin came out of the shower, he went straight to the room where he lived.

When passing the study room, he caught a glimpse of a small piece of warm yellow light leaking from the crack of the door, indicating the fact that Qu Maoxing hadn't slept yet.

Yan Qin paused slightly, stood at the door and hesitated for a few seconds, finally suppressed his unnecessary concern, and walked back to his room.

In the room Qu Maoxing left for him, there was a large bookcase with a variety of books in it.

Yan Qin originally wanted to find a book to read before going to bed, but when he really picked it up, he found that his heart had gone somewhere.

So in the end, I put down the book as if resigned to my fate, turned off the light and shrank into the bed.

Yan Qin was a bit picky about choosing a bed, so the only thing he took away from the Gu family when they divorced was the bed he was used to sleeping on.

It was no exception when I moved out alone, and I brought it with me specially.

So it is inevitable that I am not used to it now.

Of course, this was not the only thing that troubled him.

And Qu Maoxing.

As soon as he thought of these three words, all the things in his room just now surged up again, as if forcing him to recall.

He has revealed his feelings for himself so clearly that he can't be more straightforward.

But what about himself?

In fact, for a moment just now, Yan Qin had the idea that he might as well just agree, but he swallowed the words after all.

He couldn't lie to himself.

Because he once loved someone so sincerely, Yan Qin knew exactly what kind of feelings he had for Qu Maoxing.

That's not love, it's more gratitude.

So the phrase "Why don't we be together", even though it reached my throat, I couldn't say it in the end.

Just as he was lost in thought, Yan Qin suddenly heard a very soft sound of the door opening and closing from the next door.

Qu Maoxing should have finished his work.

Yan Qin took out his phone and checked the time, it was almost twelve o'clock.

This is too hard work, Yan Qin sighed.

When he was thinking wildly, he heard the sound of deliberately lowered footsteps, but instead of returning to his bedroom, he kept approaching him.

Yan Qin was stunned for a moment, then quickly closed his eyes.

He thought that Qu Maoxing would come in, but no, he just stopped at the door and stood there.

After a long time, Yan Qin seemed to hear a soft sigh.

It's just that the voice was so soft that Yan Qin couldn't tell whether he really heard it or it was just an auditory hallucination.

Yan Qin originally wanted to wait and see when Qu Maoxing would leave, but he didn't know if it was because he was too tired from working overtime, or because he felt relieved knowing that someone was not far away.

In the end, he still couldn't hold it back, yawned lazily, and closed his eyes.

the next day.

Yan Qin was woken up by the alarm clock.

Although there is heating in the house, it is still difficult to get up in winter.

He lay on the bed for a while before getting up.

As soon as he opened the door, he saw Qu Maoxing sitting in the living room. He was fully dressed and looked ready to leave at any time. He also held a newspaper in his hand and was reading it vigorously.

"Good guy." Yan Qin leaned over curiously, with a bit of surprise in his tone, "I thought only my dad could read newspapers now, but I didn't expect you to be there."

"Just take a look." Qu Maoxing said, put down the newspaper and stood up, looked at his hair like a chicken coop, resisted the desire to raise his hand to rub it, and said: "Go and wash, breakfast is ready gone."

"Okay, I'll go right now."

As Yan Qin said, he walked to the bathroom, while Qu Maoxing went to the kitchen, and took out the warming breakfast from the oven.

As soon as Yan Qin came out after washing, he saw a table full of meals, not only cold and hot, but also a combination of Chinese and Western.

Yan Qin sat down, picked up the soy milk in front of him, took another piece of waffle, and asked while eating: "Mr. Qu, can you tell me what time you got up?"

Qu Maoxing naturally didn't reply to him, but just peeled an egg and put it in his bowl, blocking his words, "Eat it quickly."

Of course, the two of them couldn't finish the breakfast at this table.

Adhering to the principle of not being wasted, Yan Qin packed up the uneaten food and planned to bring it to Xu Linlin.

After eating, it was almost time, so the two put on their coats and walked out together.

Then take the elevator straight down to the first floor.

Yan Qin was originally talking to Qu Maoxing, but when the elevator door opened, he saw his face suddenly change.

Yan Qin followed his gaze a little strangely.

Then I saw a person standing not far away.

The man was dressed in black from head to toe, only the exposed wrists were white, a cigarette was held between his thin fingers, the butt of the cigarette was clearly on and off, revealing an ambiguous warm yellow.

Yan Qin never expected to meet Gu Teng here.

And it looked like he was waiting for him.

Yan Qin's eyes dimmed, and he just glanced at him lightly, then as if he didn't see him, he walked out of the elevator while talking and laughing happily with Qu Maoxing.

He didn't stop when he passed by Gu Ting's side.

Seeing that he was about to reach the side of the car, Gu Cheng finally couldn't hold back, and stopped him, "Yan Qin."

Yan Qin paused, but finally stopped, then turned to look at him.

"Is something wrong?"

As soon as the words fell, I saw Gu Cheng put out the half-smoked cigarette in the palm of his hand.

Yan Qin frowned, knowing how painful it would be without thinking about it, but Gu Teng didn't even change his face, and walked towards him.

Then stand not far from him.

It didn't seem long since we hadn't seen each other, but Yan Qin felt that he seemed to have lost weight again, his face was abnormally pale, his eyes were bloodshot, and his pupils were very dark, and the gaze he looked at was shocking.

Yan Qin was about to speak, but saw his eyes following him all the way to Qu Maoxing.

Then he opened his mouth first, his voice was like rainwater after a night, it was freezing cold.

"Are you together?"

Yan Qin originally wanted to tell him that he was nosy, but for some reason, seeing his despondent appearance, he just wanted to add another fire to the firewood.

So he showed a very faint smile at him, and replied: "Yes, is there a problem?"

Hearing this, Gu Teng raised his hand subconsciously, as if he wanted to smoke a cigarette, but just as he raised it, he thought of something and put it down quickly.

It's just that he pressed his fingers hard and slammed the scar that was just left on his heart.

"I know what you said was angry." Gu Cheng said, his tone was a little anxious, as if he wanted to prove something eagerly.

But Yan Qin just shook his head indifferently, and then replied word by word: "What I said last time in the hospital was really angry, but this time it's true."

"Yan Qin." Gu Cheng subconsciously took a step forward when he heard the words, but before he got close, Qu Maoxing stepped in front of him.

Then he said lightly: "Mr. Gu, respect yourself."

"Go away!" Gu Teng unconsciously lowered his voice as if he was on the verge of an angry beast.

Seeing this, Yan Qin raised his arms to protect Qu Maoxing, sneered, and said, "What's wrong with you early in the morning? You have a temper and look back at your family, no one here will spoil you."

He was obviously fierce just now, but after hearing Yan Qin's words, Gu Teng became quiet.He just looked at his arm in front of Qu Maoxing in disbelief, his eyes were slightly red.

But Yan Qin was too lazy to care about his emotions, tugged at Qu Maoxing's sleeve, and said, "Let's go."

"En." Qu Maoxing said, turned around and got into the car with him.

Gu Teng did not catch up and went crazy, but the car had already driven a long way, and Gu Teng's figure was still clearly reflected in the rearview mirror.

He always stood there and never left.
