regardless of

Chapter 11

Gu Qiu's heart galloped past ten thousand muddy horses.

But on the surface, he covered his eyes with the back of his hand and smiled: "My day..."

Gu Chou laughed silently, but his shoulders trembled uncontrollably, and his eyebrows became vivid.

After laughing for a while, in the gap, he lowered his hand and glanced at Xi You, and saw that the corners of his lips were slightly raised, raising a shallow arc.

After he stopped laughing, under the table, Gu Chou kicked Xi You's calf with his ankle: "Can this stalk pass?"

Xi You was caught off guard by his kick, and his calf bounced reflexively.

The cold-faced Xi You had never had such a blank reaction before, and immediately his face collapsed: "I can't."

Gu Chou's theory: "Which of the three words Cinderella do I take up?"

"You took the stepmother."

"..."

Gu Chou's face also collapsed: "Fucking mother, I won't live with my father and his wife!"

Xi You didn't continue to quarrel with him about the word "Cinderella", and raised his chin to signal the stage: "Cake cutting has started."

Gu Chou's voice cooled down halfway: "It's none of my business."

"Someone went up to give gifts." Xi You glanced at the gift box that Gu Chou put on the chair just now, and was a little flattened by his back at the moment, "Don't you want to give it too?"

"He will come down and get it by himself in a while."

Xi You nodded, didn't speak any more, and turned his face away.

After the cake was cut, Qiu Qingping and his wife went down to the guest seats to distribute the cake.

Qiu Qingping was pushing a small dining cart, and his wife was holding a three-month-old baby in her arms.

Elderly people don't like sweets very much, and the seats of the elders are quickly filled up, and the plates of cakes cut into triangles are not distributed much.

The children were eager to see through it, and their eyes were red with anxiety.

As soon as Qiu Qingping pushed the dining cart to Gu Qiu's table, the half-grown children on the table jumped off their chairs excitedly and crowded in front of the dining cart to grab a meal.

Qiu Qingping picked up a plate of cake decorated with several scarlet cherries, walked up to Gu Chou, bounced his head on top of his head, and then put the cake down: "I've been looking for you for a long time, why are you sitting here?"

Gu Chou rubbed his head: "Why don't you sit here and wait to be eaten alive by those two gossips of your family?"

"What about your family and our family? Those two are also your aunts!" Qiu Qingping thought he understood his son and said after correcting, "The two of them can swallow you alive?"

Gu Chou didn't respond to this sentence, he pricked a cherry with a fork and bit it into his mouth.

After Qiu Qingping finished distributing cakes to the other juniors at the table, he carried Qiu En from his wife's arms, and walked around to Gu Qiu: "Little Qiu, come and see your brother."

This is inevitable.

Gu Chou stuck the fork on the cake, put his elbows on the back of the chair, turned his upper body sideways, and took a look at the milky little dumpling in Qiu Qingping's arms.

Xiaotuanzi's face was flushed, his mouth was pouted, and his big eyes looked at him innocently. There was no neck between his round head and his fleshy body.

Gu Chou couldn't be cold towards the child, but he couldn't tease him either, so he said perfunctorily, "Why is your son so fat?"

Qiu Qingping: "..."

Qiu Qingping's wife, Mei Qing, was also taken aback when she heard the words, and couldn't help laughing out loud: "I just weighed him yesterday, and he's a little heavier than the average toddler of the same age."

Qiu Qingping patted Gu Chou's head: "When you were three months old, you were almost 8kg, and you were a round little meatball."

Gu Qiu tilted his head back: "Don't keep patting my head."

Having not seen each other for a long time, Qiu Qingping looked at his son's rarity everywhere, with a smile on his face: "My son is so old, why is his head still so hairy?"

The gift was left behind Gu Chou for a long time, hurting his lower back.He withdrew his backhand and handed it to Qiu Qingping: "It's for your son."

Mei Qing carried her son from Qiu Qingping's arms, and Qiu Qingping received the gift from Gu Chou, a little surprised: "Didn't you stop shopping?"

At the full moon banquet, Gu Yayun asked Gu Chou to bring a gift. A pair of six-figure Cartier diamond-encrusted gold parent-child bracelets directly overwhelmed the audience during the gift-giving session.

Gu Chou knew that his mother was always generous in material matters, but when the gift was opened by Qiu Qingping, he was still a little surprised by Gu Yayun's generosity towards her ex-husband.

There were mixed voices behind the scenes, saying that Gu Yayun was using money to humiliate Qiu Qingping.

At that time, he felt that the morals of the world were outrageous. If you don’t give a gift, you say you can’t let it go, if you give it cheap, you say you are stingy, and if you give it expensive, you say it is using money to humiliate a relationship that has no fate.

In any case, there is a set of rhetoric.

Gu Qiu didn't bother to follow the link, anyway, Qiu Qingping would come to him on his own, and he would just hand it over when the time came.

Now that it was handed over, Qiu Qingping obviously felt a little hot when he saw it, and was worried that he would open a thing worth a flat like opening a blind box, whether he opened it in his hand or pushed it back.

Gu Chou rubbed his temples, and said a little irritably, "I picked it this time."

What he didn't say was that when Gu Yayun decided to spend a lot of money on a set of Bulgari necklaces, he had no choice but to volunteer to take over the job.

Hearing what Gu Chou said, the hesitation on Qiu Qingping's face was instantly wiped away, and he cheerfully lifted the cover of the gift while asking, "Hey, did my son pick out the gift for his little brother himself? What did you choose?"

"longevity lock."

When Gu Qiu answered, Qiu Qingping just took off the cover, and there was a "Fu" character carved in the middle of one, with "Longevity and Longevity" on the left, and "Lucky and Prosperous" on the right, and two koi fish jumping on top of his head. The silver longevity lock came into view.

"Don't think it's shabby. I checked the Internet. Dai Jin, a child under the age of one, may ruin his life, so I chose silver. It's not a brand name. I found an old silversmith to make it, and said that this kind of thing came from the hands of an old man. It's the best." Seeing that his father was a little stagnant, Gu Chou said a few more words in a rare way.

After he finished speaking, Xi You, who had been working diligently on the side in front of the background board, suddenly looked sideways at him.

Xi You originally planned to take a look and then look away, but who knew that such an unconscious glance could be caught by the other party.

He couldn't turn back without turning a blind eye, so he cleared his throat and blurted out: "You're quite superstitious."

As a result, after he finished speaking, Gu Chou didn't respond.

After Xi You was puzzled for a second, he realized that Gu Chou didn't look at him just now, but just looked through him to the void behind him.

He was confused for a moment, and soon understood something.

Gu Chou just released too much kindness in that passage, for a person who is used to showing indifference, expressing these is somewhat unnatural.

Xi You unconsciously bent the corners of his mouth, straightened his body and sat down, put his fingertips on the wall of the cup, and took a sip of tea.

Qiu Qingping looked down at the gift in his hand, and was really stunned for a while when he heard what his son said. After a while, he found his voice: "Why did you think of giving this?"

Gu Chou said perfunctorily, "I happened to see it."

"My son is really caring." Qiu Qingping said and reached out to pat Gu Qiu's head.

Gu Chou doesn't like other people's hands on his head.

Neither can his father.

When he was still young, Qiu Qingping often hit his head with his hands. At that time, he didn't care much, because as a son, he could instinctively feel that the hands pressing his hair carried the love of his father.Ever since Qiu Qingping and Gu Yayun divorced, or when Qiu Qingping had the idea of ​​divorcing Gu Yayun earlier, there was something else in those hands that often pressed his hair.

Guilt, compensation, and occasional helplessness.

So when Qiu Qingping stretched out his hand, Gu Chou turned his head away and said in a muffled voice, "You think too much."

Qiu Qingping was dumb for a moment, retracted his hand in mid-air, and said something like a sigh: "I don't know who your hard-talking and soft-hearted problem resembles."

like who?

It's not like anyone else.

Laozi is a mutant species.

After Gu Chou complained in his heart, he shouted: "Go entertain your guests, don't just pester me here."

Before divorcing Gu Yayun, Qiu Qingping spent more time with Gu Chou, so he thought he knew this child well enough.Thin-skinned, duplicity, unable to stand the test, a few words of coaxing from others, a few words of persuasion, he will easily soften, even if his mouth is still stubborn.

In Qiu Qingping's eyes, Gu Chou has always been excellent.During his marriage with Gu Yayun, Qiu Qingping had been crushed by Gu Yayun in every aspect. His family, career, ambition, and ability were all grayed out.Only this son, in those years when he was shrouded in the shadow of Gu Yayun, gave him some little pride that he could continue to live on.

He gave Gu Chou more companionship and education than Gu Yayun, so Gu Chou's good grades in school and the popularity he received, he deeply believed that he was responsible for most of the credit.

Now that he got rid of Gu Yayun, but the relationship with his son, he didn't want to let it cool down.

So Qiu Qingping turned sideways and said to Mei Qing, "Give me the child."

After receiving Qiu En from Mei Qing's arms, Qiu Qingping hugged his son and sent it to Gu Qiu: "Do you want to hug your brother?"

Gu Chou didn't react for a moment, subconsciously raised his head and glanced in the direction of Qiu Qingping's wife.

Mei Qing obviously didn't expect that Qiu Qingping would give her son to Gu Chou, and the moment Qiu Qingping finished speaking, a trace of hesitation flashed across his expression.

For a very short moment, it was captured by Gu Chou.

Gu Chou has never been a rough-natured person. Under his seemingly indifferent appearance, there is a sensitive young heart wrapped around him.

The sensitive young man's heart is covered with a shell, and a bunch of thorns are stuck outside the shell.

He suddenly felt that his momentary stupefaction and surprise just now was a bit stupid, so he suppressed the mocking smile that he wanted to raise at the corner of his mouth, "Don't give me a hug."

Before Qiu Qingping's next question came out, Gu Qiu quickly said, "Do you know why I gave your new son a longevity lock?"

He didn't give Qiu Qingping a chance to ask back, and immediately said: "As the name suggests, I hope he will live longer, preferably a hundred years old, and don't be like me and maybe belch someday."

As soon as Gu Chou said this, Xi You paused slightly with his chopsticks on the hand holding the vegetables, and turned his head to look at Gu Chou.

Sensing his gaze, Gu Qiu raised his eyes, met him, and raised his eyebrows.

Xi You didn't mean anything else, just wondering how could a boy who was about his own age be so easy to burp anytime and anywhere, and looked very lively and lively.

Immediately, he realized that there might be a gossipy desire to explore in his gaze, so he looked away as if nothing had happened, and dropped his chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.

Gu Chou didn't take the brief glance with Xi You seriously, and he didn't have time to take it seriously, because the next second, Qiu Qingping freed up a hand to hold the baby, and gave him a resounding blow. of chestnuts.

"What nonsense are you talking about?!" Qiu Qingping's tone became serious, "How grown-up are you to say such things, take them back, and rot in your stomach."

Mei Qing who was standing next to him also had a complicated expression.

Gu Chou didn't think there was anything wrong with what he said just now, it was just that his emotions were a little bit harsh and his words were a little harsh, but at least he expressed a kind of good wishes, and he felt that he was quite sincere.

Qiu Qingping wanted to continue to say something, but Gu Qiu stood up suddenly with a bang: "The gift has been delivered and the task is completed. Comrade Qiu Qingping, can you allow your son to retire after success?"

Qiu Qingping saw that Gu Chou had no intention of cultivating a relationship with his newborn brother, so he didn't force him, and sent the child back to Mei Qing's arms, then turned around and pressed Gu Chou's shoulders to let him sit down again: "Who said you The task is to give gifts? You sit down for me and leave after eating."

Although Gu Chou has a bad temper, he is not a person who does it all on his own. He has already got a thorn out just now, and now there is no reason to let the emotions and scenes ferment, so he put it away, and has no intention of rehabilitating Qiu Qing. Come on.

However, while sitting peacefully on the face, there are other calculations in his heart.

He pretended to put a few mouthfuls of rice under Qiu Qingping's nose, and when Qiu Qingping left, he put down his chopsticks, got up and left the noisy bustle that didn't belong to him without staying for a moment.

For many people, including Qiu Qingping, Gu Chou left quietly.But Gu Chou's heart has always been very angry, seven parts of the anger accumulated in his heart and slowly digested, and three parts turned into surging anger and vented his anger on innocent people.

When leaving, a person at the same table got up abruptly, causing rice grains to fly across the table, and then roughly pulled the coat on the back of the chair, the hem of the clothes was thrown in the air, and the zipper head was "snapped" away from him. On the jaw of the nearest Xiyou.

A red mark immediately appeared.

The instigator didn't realize it, and had already gone away.

Sitting on the other side of Xi You, Xi Shangyu only saw the hem of the clothes sweeping across his brother's left face, and heard the sound of the zipper head being pulled against the skin.

He poked his head to see the other side of Xi You's face: "Brother, are you alright?"

Xi You seemed to be immersed in some thoughts, and didn't care: "It's okay."

He said it was all right, so Xi Shangyu didn't ask any more questions about it.He just observed quietly for a long time, and he always felt that the relationship between his brother and his brother's classmate who left just now was a little bit different, although their interaction was not too much, no less, not close at that moment. It's not strange, but he inexplicably felt that there was a strange magnetic field between them.

The words lingered a few times on the tip of his tongue, but he still couldn't hold back and asked, "Brother, you seem to know each other very well, why didn't I see this classmate in your class before?"

Xi You didn't want to answer his question: "You talk too much."

Xi Shangyu's face flushed a little instantly, and he gently ground his molars: "I'm curious."

Xi You replied quickly and coldly: "Don't use it on me."

The author has something to say:

Slack off.After returning home, I stared at the ceiling, and at a certain moment, I suddenly got a jolt, remembering to update...
