[Rebirth] One more blizzard and two worlds

A week before the winter vacation, Gu Tingyun's mother called to urge him to go home early, because she arranged a blind date for him, and the girl was waiting to meet him.

Taking chances, Gu Tingyun played a sympathy card: "Mom, I have a broken bone, so I can't go to see others with a cane?"

"Your father will send you there. Besides, you are not disabled, and people will not dislike you because of a broken bone."

Gu Tingyun could feel the irresistibility in his mother's tone.He is helpless, what should come will come after all.

"Mom, I'm not going to get married."

"Ayun, it will be difficult for us if you do this." Mother paused, then slowed down her speech, "Is there any special reason?"

Gu Tingyun coughed: "I have a sweetheart."

"So you don't want to get married?" The mother couldn't understand her son's logic.

"……male."

There was no answer.Gu Tingyun lifted his bangs up, and it took a long time before he spoke: "Mom, I told you, I..."

The mother's voice sounded like a stone was pressed: "You were in puberty at the time, and I thought you would... change when you grow up."

"No, I've always been like this."

Gu Tingyun heard his mother sigh on the other end of the phone.

"Ayun, go home early. Your dad and I will wait for you at home, don't make him angry anymore."

Then there was a beeping busy tone from the receiver.

He recalled that when he was a child, he walked into the house after rolling a body of black mud on the ground, and saw his mother with her hands folded behind her back, her face stretched like a canvas that had just been painted, and two cold lights glowed in her dark eyes, which also Don't do anything, just stare at him until he bows his head and admits his mistake.

It is soft like water, but hard like reinforced concrete.

In the past, Gu Tingyun would definitely try his best to reject the blind date arranged by his parents, but now the word "your father" that came out of his mother's mouth turned out to be like a short spell, which made him have to put his father Put your own wishes first, and put your own wishes aside.

He is 26 years old this year, and the girl next door he played with when he was young got married as early as the first year of his master's degree, and now the child is in kindergarten.He can understand his parents' eagerness, but love is something that cannot be forced, not to mention that he has not inherited his parents' sexual orientation at all.

He rubbed his hair irritably, then opened the door.Yu Xiao was leaning on his door frame, having a drink, when he turned his head and saw Gu Tingyun's sad face with several black lines hanging on it.

"Let me ask if you want to eat tomato scrambled eggs or tomato egg soup."

"Same. Eggs are broken anyway."

Normal University has a holiday later than surrounding schools, just a few days before the New Year's Eve.Wen Chi still has things to deal with at school, so he won't be able to go home until a few days later.

Yuan Qianqiu has no winter vacation, only rotations, and the three-day vacation is over when he goes home and eats a New Year's Eve dinner.Gu Tingyun deliberately waited for two days, and then took the train back with Yuan Qianqiu.

He told Yuan Qianqiu about the family asking him to go on a blind date. Yuan Qianqiu spread his hands, saying that you have to go to meet the girl, and I have no better way.

Gu Tingyun propped one hand on the window sill, the heating in the car gave him a headache.

It's really hard to have both.Gu Tingyun thought for a moment, and planned to have a real chat with the other party when the time came. If the girl didn't like him, it would be easy to handle, and he would blow it off naturally.But if by chance a girl calls him, it's not easy for him to reject her on the spot.

He patted Yuan Qianqiu on the shoulder, tilted his head and said, "Sit nearby and drink tea, and if the situation is wrong, come and save me."

Yuan Qianqiu secretly smiled in his heart: "How to save?"

"Just let it go, but don't overdo it."

Yuan Qianqiu shrugged: "Your scale is too vague, I can't grasp it."

Gu Tingyun pushed the glasses frame on the bridge of his nose: "Impromptu, just impromptu."

The day finally came.Gu Tingyun was wrapped in a black wool coat, wore a brown plaid scarf, slim suit pants and leather shoes, and leaned on two stainless steel retractable crutches, and entered the coffee shop with a decent appearance.

He found the girl with the omelet iron sitting in the corner, limped over, and sat down opposite her.

"I'm sorry." He touched his head and smiled a little shyly, "I stepped on a pit and broke a bone."

"It's okay, it's troublesome for you to come here, right? I'm just saying I'm sorry." The girl shook her head and said politely.

Gu Tingyun looked down at the drink list on the table: "What would you like to drink?"

"Mocha."

Gu Tingyun ordered two cups of mocha, his eyes drifted from one end of the coffee shop to the other, he didn't look at the girl's face in a daze.

The waiter brought two cups of coffee.The girl took a sip of the hot mocha, and tentatively asked, "Well, you are a university teacher, right?"

"En." Gu Tingyun nodded, and continued to stir his cream.

The girl saw that Gu Tingyun didn't ask her "what about you", and for a moment didn't know how to continue the conversation.After rubbing her index fingers under the table for a few rounds, she spoke again: "I'm an insurance company. When my performance is good, I can get [-] yuan a month. Usually, the company organizes receptions and travel..."

Gu Tingyun's eyes lit up when he heard the word "insurance", and he finally raised his head to meet the girl's gaze.He saw other girls talking so hard, and it was shameful for him to look so sluggish all the time.In order not to waste the girl's feelings, he decided to tell the truth.

"I think the clerks of the insurance company work very hard, which is very good." He took a sip of the coffee that had been stirred well, "To tell you the truth, my financial situation is quite tight. I rent a house with someone outside, and No car."

"I heard that you work in N City, where renting a house is extremely expensive, and people in our small place can't afford it." The girl looked as usual, and her voice was very calm, "You are still young, take your time."

Gu Tingyun smiled: "Actually, I'm not very young."

It is said that he is 26 years old, but in fact he has lived for nearly 30 years.

"You look very young, not like a teacher, but like a college student." The girl looked at him with a smile, "Your students must like you very much, right?"

"My students... really don't like me very much." Gu Tingyun replied honestly.

"But when I was in college, I really liked the teacher who taught me Chinese." The girl stretched out her hand and gestured, "Just like you, she wears glasses, gentle, and has always been gentle. The class is very interesting, I don’t like roll call, and I leave very little homework.”

Gu Tingyun thought to himself, the teacher she mentioned is probably only similar to him with those glasses.

"My lectures are rather boring, and I call rolls every class, and even the students sleep."

The girl covered her mouth and smiled: "You are also very interesting. How about... leave a contact information?"

How to reject her?Saying "No need" will hurt the other person, and saying "Actually, I don't plan to get married" will make him feel affectionate.At this time, Gu Tingyun especially hopes that he can be like Yuan Qianqiu, who can speak out what he has to say directly, and doesn't have to think about other trivial matters. Unfortunately, his surname is Gu, not Yuan.

He didn't say a word, seeing that the girl was almost finished drinking a cup of mocha, he wanted to ask the waiter for another cup.

He had just stood up when a familiar figure suddenly flashed over.

"Gu, Ting, Yun, I have to run into you every time I drink coffee. If I had known before going out, I would have checked the almanac, and it must have said 'do not go out'." Yuan Qianqiu stood still in front of him, raised her chin, coldly Leaning at him anxiously, "Oh, is this a blind date?"

Gu Tingyun didn't react for a while, and said "oh, um" twice in a daze.

When the girl heard Yuan Qianqiu's voice, she cast a puzzled look.Who would have thought that she just caught a glimpse of Yuan Qianqiu's affectionate peach blossom eyes, and suddenly it was like a thunderbolt stirring the ground, her head buzzed, and her eyes could no longer move away from his face.

"You are……"

Seeing that the girl was staring at him, Yuan Qianqiu immediately pointed at Gu Tingyun and began to criticize: "When he was sweeping the tomb in the third grade of primary school, he insisted on pulling the girl next to him by the little hand!"

"what?"

"He touched the buttocks of two girls when he was riding the bus in the fifth grade!"

Gu Tingyun's eyebrows could not stop beating.

Seeing that the girl still didn't respond, Yuan Qianqiu took out his trump card: "He, he drives a Chery!"

The girl blinked her big eyes and tilted her head: "What's wrong with Chery?"

Yoho, even after saying that, Yuan Qianqiu is going to look at this skinny little girl with admiration.

"Gu Tingyun likes to eat mooncakes with five kernels!"

The girl giggled happily, and when she looked at Yuan Qianqiu, her eyes were full of affection: "You are so funny."

Yuan Qianqiu patted his head and poked Gu Tingyun's shoulder with his thumb: "He's a Virgo!"

Gu Tingyun lightly kicked Yuan Qianqiu's calf up.

The girl stood up, lowered her head in front of Yuan Qianqiu, her face gradually turned crimson: "Then... what constellation are you from?"

"Eh? Me?" Seeing the girl's face blushing, Yuan Qianqiu suddenly felt that the plot development was not right, "I'm a Cancer."

"I'm a Scorpio... the two of us have a high speed dating index."

Gu Tingyun folded his arms beside him, trying to hold back his laughter.Yuan Qianqiu looked up at the ceiling, and suddenly felt that he had kicked himself into the pit.
