I regret after the divorce

It took Yan Qin several days to tidy up his things, and the villa was still maintained by Gu Teng as it was before, without much change.

However, although the house is still the same as before, the mood of living here is completely different.

After he put all his things back, Yan Qin walked around the whole house with great interest.

When I was here before, I always felt that this huge house was like a cold shell, and he had never integrated into it, but looking at it now, I finally have some warm sense of belonging.

Yan Qin walked from the third floor to the second floor, stopped when passing Gu Cheng's study, hesitated for a moment at the door, and finally opened the door and walked in.

It hasn't changed much from the last time he came here, but there are more things than before.

For example, the wedding photos on the wall and desk, and... the few paintings he saw in Gu Cheng's apartment before.

But the difference is that there are only two paintings hanging here now, one is the only painting with a warm color that Yan Qin saw at the time, and the other Yan Qin has never seen before, and it is probably a new painting.

The picture shows a sunny sea, and there are two people standing on the seashore, one far and one near.

The one far away looks small because of the distance, and is happily treading water with bare feet, while the one near holds a pair of shoes in his hand, standing there quietly looking at the person not far away.

Yan Qin almost immediately recognized that this was the situation when he and Gu Teng were at the beach that day, so these two people were naturally the two of them. Although they couldn't see their faces, they could feel their happiness only from their backs. .

The sea water extends to the distance, reflecting the sparkling waves, everything in the painting is warm and bright, and everything is facing the sun.

Probably because the two paintings were too warm, Yan Qin felt a sense of warmth in his heart.

After staying here for a long time, I turned around and walked towards the desk.

Gu Teng's desk is still clean and orderly, but there is an extra palm-sized photo frame, which is one of their wedding photos.

Seeing this, the corners of Yan Qin's mouth curled up slightly unconsciously. Just as he was about to pick up the photo to take a look, he was attracted by a bunch of dried flowers next to the photo.

A few slanted branches were inserted in a beautiful glass bottle. Although they were made into dried flowers, the colors were still bright, and it seemed that they had been carefully preserved.

Yan Qin took out a branch from it, put it under his nose and sniffed it gently, and he could still smell the unique fragrance of roses.

If he guessed correctly, this should be the bouquet of champagne roses he bought back then.

Unexpectedly, Gu Teng still kept it.

For some reason, I suddenly felt better.

Just about to put the flowers back, when the phone rang suddenly, Yan Qin was startled, and the flowers in his hand almost fell.

He quickly took out his mobile phone and checked that it was Gu Teng calling.

I don't know if it was because he entered his study without permission, but Yan Qin always felt a little guilty, and his voice unconsciously lowered when he answered the phone.

"...Hey, what's the matter?" Yan Qin asked.

Gu Teng seemed to be stopped by his question, and after a moment of silence, he opened his mouth and said, "It's okay, what are you doing?"

When Yan Qin heard this, he immediately straightened up, looked up and looked around, but he turned around and didn't find where the monitoring device was?

"I..." Yan Qin thought he had been caught, so he simply confessed and leniently said, "I'm in your study, you won't be angry, will you?"

Gu Ting smiled lightly when he heard the words, and asked back: "Why should I be angry?"

Hearing this, Yan Qin suddenly remembered what Gu Teng had said to him when he first got married, and his mood dropped instantly.

Gu Teng noticed something was wrong, and quickly asked, "Did I say something before?"

Seeing that Yan Qin still didn't speak, Gu Teng understood in an instant, and quickly said: "No matter what I said before, I don't count, you can go anywhere at home, all the combination locks are set with your fingerprint..."

Listening to his flustered tone, Yan Qin slightly curved his lips, and it took him a long time to interrupt him, "Gu Cheng."

"Ok?"

Yan Qin wanted to ask him why he still kept the roses he had given him before, but felt hypocritical, so he changed the subject and said, "What do you want for lunch?"

"Do you want to deliver food?" Gu Cheng asked.

"Yeah." Yan Qin nodded.

Gu Teng thought for a moment before replying, "Claypot rice."

"it is good."

After Yan Qin answered, he chatted with him for a while before hanging up the phone.

Although Gu Teng didn't forbid him to come in, Yan Qin didn't stay any longer. He came out of the study and went down to the kitchen on the first floor to prepare meals.

As soon as the rice was soaked and the sausage and bacon were steamed, Gu Cheng called again.

"What's the matter?" When he called at this time, Yan Qin thought it was because he suddenly had a social meeting at noon, and came to tell him that he would not cook his meal.

Unexpectedly, what Gu Teng said was, "The road is far away, I'll send someone to pick you up."

Yan Qin couldn't help laughing when he heard the words, "It doesn't need to be so troublesome, I can just take a taxi."

But Gu Teng insisted, and finally asked him to choose between sending someone to pick him up or coming back to pick him up in person.

Yan Qin couldn't help laughing, but finally compromised.

After finishing talking, Yan Qin was about to steam the rice, and wanted to hang up the phone, but Gu Teng suddenly started chatting with him, "I just finished the meeting, and I'm resting in the office now."

So Yan Qin turned on the speakerphone, steamed the rice, and replied, "Don't be too tired."

"Well, I see. I drank coffee just now. You should like the Blue Mountain No. 1 that Director Liu brought back from abroad."

"Okay, then save some for me, and I'll try it later."

"Row."

After this sentence, it seemed that there was nothing more to say, but neither of them hung up the phone.

Although they are not together now, they seem to be very close again.

Yan Qin could hear the sound of his desk and chair moving, the sound of paper and pen rubbing against each other when signing, and his very shallow breathing.

In the same way, Gu Teng should also be able to hear his cooking.

The two of them were doing their own things like this, chatting a few words from time to time, as if they were old couples who had been together for many years.

But Yan Qin thought about it, plus the previous seven years, aren't they just an old couple?

But don't mention old couples at that time, they don't even look like husband and wife.

Sure enough, it is never the length of time that measures feelings.

At this time, the rice has been steamed, and the rich aroma of cured meat and the fragrance of Thai fragrant rice come with the rising heat.

Yan Qin opened it and took a look, then closed the lid again, intending to simmer for another 10 minutes.

At this time, there was a knock on the door, followed by the secretary's voice, "Mr. Gu, the meeting has started."

Upon hearing this, Yan Qin quickly said, "Then I'll hang up first."

"Okay..." Gu Teng didn't know why, so he prolonged the tone, until Yan Qin heard the sound of closing the door over there, and then heard him continue: "The orchids in my office are blooming."

"Huh?" Yan Qin was a little confused, and then heard him continue: "It's nothing, I just miss you a little."

Yan Qin just froze in place, and before he could think of anything to answer, the other party had already hung up the phone.

Yan Qin looked down at the phone that had no sound, and suddenly smiled.

Since the phone call that day, Gu Teng seemed to have suddenly opened up, making several phone calls every day.

In fact, most of the time there is nothing particularly important.

It's nothing more than "What are you doing?" "Dining together?" and the like.

Sometimes it's more trivial.

For example, when I passed by a cake shop today, I saw a cake in the shape of a panda. You probably like it.

I ate a dish that you cooked during a social gathering today, and it was far worse than yours.

Xie Ze came to drink with me today, but I refused because I had to go home for dinner tonight.He said that I am a strict wife, I thought about it and replied to him, yes, I am a strict wife.

……

Listening to his little words every day, Yan Qin suddenly remembered that Yan Qin liked to "annoy" him so much when they first got married a long time ago.

Even if it's just a small thing, I want to tell him.

But that's not the case with liking.

It's like walking on the road one day and looking up at the moon. The moon is so round and bright tonight, so he can't help but want to share.

And Gu Teng...

It was the first person he wanted to share with.

Yan Qin felt that Gu Teng was a little strange recently, always mentioning the past intentionally or unintentionally.

When eating, I would look at the small meal bag in front of me, and suddenly said with emotion: "This is your favorite food before."

When you pass ETTINGER's store while shopping, you will stop and ask him, "Do you want to go in and shop, I remember this is your favorite brand of wallet before."

During the honeymoon, I held his hand and stood on the streets of Florence, watching the sun go down not far away, and suddenly began to recall, "You used to like watching the sunset the most."

The word "before" appeared too frequently recently, so Yan Qin always felt that he seemed to mean something.

But every time it was mentioned, Gu Teng refused to say anything.

This made Yan Qin helpless and curious.

But he can't force him to ask, so he can only comfort himself that there will be a long time to come, anyway, there will always be a moment when he knows.

Yan Qin originally thought that the water would flow forever, but a new discovery recently made him restless.

The reason was that he left work early on Friday, and Yan Qin went to Gu Teng's company on a whim to find him.

But when I arrived at the office, I didn't see him. I asked the secretary, but the secretary said that Gu Teng had already left.

Yan Qin thought he had gone home first, so he called him, but he didn't answer.

Yan Qin thought that this kind of situation is usually because he might be busy with something, and he should call in a while.

However, Yan Qin waited downstairs in his company for more than an hour, but did not wait for Gu Teng to call back.

Yan Qin was a little worried, so he called Xie Ze. As Gu Cheng's friend for many years, he would definitely know where he was.

Sure enough, when Xie Ze heard this, he quickly told him not to worry, saying that Gu Teng was with him.

Yan Qin asked Gu Teng to answer the phone, but Xie Ze said that a few friends were playing at home at noon, and they drank too much and couldn't answer the call, so he could rest assured that he would send Gu Teng back intact when he sobered up.

Although Yan Qin felt that Xie Ze's words revealed a little weirdness, but felt that Xie Ze really had no reason to lie to him, so he didn't say anything, but told Gu Cheng to go home quickly when he was sober.

Xie Ze immediately agreed, and Yan Qin hung up the phone.

Yan Qin originally thought that it was still early today and he could watch a movie with him, but judging from the current situation, he might not have the chance.

So Yan Qin stopped the car and planned to go home.

However, when the taxi passed the intersection, the car stopped because of the red light ahead.

Yan Qin looked out boredly, but he didn't expect to take a casual glance, but saw Xie Ze who had sworn to him just now that he was at home in the cafe on the corner.

Opposite him sat a girl in a white shirt and white pearl earrings, with a sweet and gentle smile.

Yan Qin heard from Gu Teng that Xie Ze was chasing after a university teacher recently, and it must be her.

but……

Yan Qin felt his blood go cold for a moment, why did Xie Ze lie to him?

Thinking of this, Yan Qin took out his mobile phone and made another call.

However, the cold female voice was still on the opposite side, "I'm sorry, the number you dialed has not been answered for the time being..."

Yan Qin pursed his lips and hung up the phone expressionlessly.

Suddenly, for no reason, I shivered.

It's already April, why is it still so cold?

Yan Qin returned home and picked ingredients from the refrigerator to cook as usual.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I heard the phone ring.

Yan Qin looked down and saw that it was Gu Cheng's call, and then glanced at the time, it was their usual time to get off work.

Normally, he would definitely answer the phone without hesitation, but today his finger stayed on the top of the screen for a long time, but he couldn't press it down.

Probably because the waiting time was too long, the other party automatically hung up the phone.

However, just as Yan Qin breathed a sigh of relief, the other party called again.

The French song that Gu Teng used when he proposed was set as the ringtone of his mobile phone, and it rang over and over again.

On weekdays, romantic tunes always put him in a good mood, but at this moment, he only felt ridiculed.

Yan Qin closed his eyes and couldn't help tightening his fingers. After a while, he calmed down and picked up his mobile phone to answer the call.

"Hello, Yanyan." Seeing that he answered the phone, Gu Teng's voice was obviously relieved.

Yan Qin reluctantly responded, "Yes" and couldn't speak anymore.

He didn't ask where Gu Teng went in the afternoon?Didn't ask why Xie Ze lied to him?Just quietly waiting for him to continue.

He really wanted to hear Gu Teng's answer.

"I heard from the secretary that you came to the company this afternoon?"

"Ah."

"I..." Gu Cheng only said the word "I", then suddenly got stuck, as if he was struggling with something.

Yan Qin didn't interrupt him, but silently replaced the potatoes in his hand with shredded ginger, cut them into thin strips, and put them on the plate.

"...I went to Xie Ze's place in the afternoon. I slept there for a while after drinking too much. I didn't hear you call me."

"En." Yan Qin replied very calmly, "Go home."

When Gu Teng came back, Yan Qin just came out of the kitchen with a plate.

Gu Teng came over to help, but Yan Qin dodged subconsciously, as if he felt that his resistance was too obvious, so he added: "The dishes are all out, go wash your hands and eat."

Gu Teng withdrew his hand as if he hadn't noticed anything, and replied, "Okay."

However, when he came back and sat down at the dining table after washing his hands, he realized that the dishes on the table today were cold coriander, stir-fried bitter gourd, carrot mixed with white radish, and the only normal-looking fried shredded potato.

Very good, it's all that Gu Teng doesn't like to eat.

Gu Teng thought, this is probably the price to pay for not answering the phone in the afternoon.

Thinking of this, Gu Cheng picked up his chopsticks and struggled with several dishes for a long time, and finally picked up a chopstick of potato shreds.

However, as soon as he put it in his mouth, his expression changed instantly.

Seeing this, Yan Qin raised his eyebrows and looked at him, and asked lightly, "Isn't it delicious?"

Gu Teng was about to take out a piece of paper and spit it out, but he stopped suddenly when he heard the words, his expression changed a few times, and he finally swallowed it all.

"Delicious." Gu Cheng tried hard to restrain his expression.

At night, when the two went to bed, Gu Teng hugged him from behind as usual, but he didn't expect that Yan Qin's body would instantly become stiff as soon as he touched him.

Gu Teng was stunned for a moment, and his body also froze for a moment.

After a long time, he tentatively rubbed his chin against Yan Qin's shoulder and asked, "Are you still angry?"

Yan Qin didn't turn around and didn't speak, just when Gu Teng thought he was asleep, he suddenly said, "Gu Teng, did you hide something from me?"

As soon as Yan Qin finished speaking, he felt Gu Cheng's breathing on the side of his neck stop.

And after a long time, he replied, "No."

Although the quilt was not too thin, and there was Gu Teng hugging him behind him, but for some reason, Yan Qin suddenly felt that the blood all over his body turned cold instantly.

"Why do you ask?"

Yan Qin felt his heart sinking to the bottom, and closed his eyes tiredly, "It's nothing, go to sleep."

The next few days remained uneventful.

Gu Teng still made several phone calls every day, and he went home on time, and reported to the wine bureau one by one, and there was never a situation where the phone could not be connected.

Until Friday again.

Although Yan Qin kept telling himself to trust Gu Teng, he still couldn't control himself. After all, he asked for leave in the afternoon and rushed to Gu Teng's company.

However, when he arrived at the entrance of the company, he didn't go in immediately. Instead, he stopped downstairs for a long time before walking in slowly.

He walked very fast all the way, afraid that once he vented his breath, he would never be able to bring it up again.

He hurried all the way to the office like this.

When the secretary saw him, he was about to get up, but before he finished saying "Mr. Yan", he saw that he had pushed open the door of Gu Teng's office and walked in.

Unaware of his posture, he thought he was here to catch an adulterer, and the secretary got up and followed him in fright.

Just about to ask what happened?

Seeing that Yan Qin had turned around and walked out in a daze.

The secretary was taken aback by his state, and asked stammeringly, "Yan, Mr. Yan, what's wrong with you?"

As soon as the words fell, Yan Qin turned his head to look at him, his eyes were trying to maintain calm, "Where's Gu Ting?"

"Boss Gu is out."

"Where have you been?"

"Boss Gu didn't say anything."

"Does he go out every Friday afternoon?"

"No, it used to be the weekend, and it became Friday not long ago."

"Yeah." Yan Qin didn't say anything else, and walked out. When he got to the door, he turned his head as if he suddenly remembered something, and added, "Thank you!"

The secretary shook his head inexplicably, saying it was nothing.

Seeing this, Yan Qin gave her a small smile before walking out.

The secretary looked at his back, and Yan Qin's eyes suddenly appeared in his mind when he came in just now.

Sad and lifeless, as if something suddenly shattered inside.

When it was almost five o'clock, Yan Qin's cell phone rang.

He looked down and was not surprised to see that it was Gu Cheng calling.

Yan Qin picked it up, and then heard the other person ask: "Are you off work? I'll pick you up."

"No, I'm already home."

Gu Teng was a little surprised when he heard the words, "Why did you go back early? Did something happen?"

Yan Qin was silent for a moment, then replied: "It's all right, just a little uncomfortable?"

"Are you sick?"

"Maybe."

"Then you rest for a while, I'll go back now."

"it is good.

After Yan Qin finished speaking, he hung up the phone.

He thought that he was probably really sick, and his arm was so numb that he couldn't lift it after lifting it for a long time, so he had to put down the phone.

Naituan and Buyuyu, who were basking in the sun in the yard, seemed to have sensed something, ran over and lay down next to him, and rubbed his head against him.

Soon, Yan Qin heard the sound of the gate opening and closing.

Yan Qin turned around, looked out through the huge floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room, and then saw Gu Teng park the car in the garage, and then strode over.

Soon, the door of the villa was opened.

As soon as Yan Qin sat up, he saw that Gu Cheng had already walked in front of him, raised his right hand to his forehead, and put it down after a long time, "I don't have a fever, what's the matter?"

Gu Teng's movement was too close, and Yan Qin smelled a faint scent of perfume all at once.

Yan Qin sniffed lightly again uncertainly, and his eyes instantly turned red.

When Gu Cheng saw him, he thought he was suffering, so he raised his hand and rubbed his head to coax him, "What's wrong? Let's go see a doctor, okay? How old are you, why are you still crying?"

Yan Qin ignored him, but suddenly remembered the past that Gu Cheng kept mentioning during this period.

Before, before...

Isn't their past the seven years of chicken feathers in that place?

Why bring it up again and again?Where did he go on Friday?Who left the perfume smell on his body?

Did he... regret it again?

"Yan Yan."

Suddenly, Yan Qin heard Gu Cheng calling him again.

He raised his head, and saw Gu Teng take out a bunch of marshmallows from behind and hand it to him.

"I saw it on the way home. Will eating something sweet make me feel better?"

Yan Qin stared blankly at the cotton candy in front of him, and the emotions he had accumulated for a long time finally broke out at this moment.

The grievance that he had desperately suppressed just now surged up in an instant.

Yan Qin suddenly burst into tears.

The etiquette he had received since he was a child was to restrain his emotions and anger, but this time he ignored everything and cried loudly.

Big tears fell down, his hands clutched his clothes tightly, he was out of breath from crying, trembling all over, his hands and feet were weak, and he couldn't even speak a complete sentence.

Gu Cheng was frightened by him, and he immediately threw the cotton candy aside, and quickly took out a piece of paper to wipe his tears.

However, Yan Qin didn't let him touch him at all, whenever he wanted to get close, he would push him away.

"What's wrong?" Gu Cheng's face turned pale with anxiety, his voice was trembling, but there was nothing he could do, he could only stand there and look at him helplessly.

After a long time, Yan Qin slowly calmed down.

He raised his hand and rubbed his eyes, and he knew it must be swollen without looking, and it hurt even when he blinked.

Gu Cheng took the paper and wanted to wipe his tears, but Yan Qin slapped it away when he saw it, then raised his eyes to look at him.

Then I saw that Gu Cheng's complexion was not much better than his at this time, his face was pale, and his eyes were full of anxiety.

"What's the matter?"

Yan Qin sighed, closed his eyes and refused to look at him, and said in a tired voice, "Gu Cheng, is it fun playing with me?"
