Chapter 11
Chapter 11
Ever since I received Gu Chen's news in the morning, my mood has been tangled and uneasy.
This is the first time he has contacted me in two months.
"Kevin, I know, the previous thing is that I caused you a lot of harm, but...can you come to Gu's Hotel? I want...to treat you to a meal and explain to you... Whether you come or not, I will wait for you."
His tone sounded like a wronged little daughter-in-law...
I can't stand him like this, once he softens, I have no resistance.
"Okay, I'll go now."
After struggling for three hours, I decided to go——
I resigned myself to changing clothes.
When I arrived at Gu's Hotel, the waiter respectfully led me to the lobby. Unlike the lively and noisy atmosphere in the past, Gu Chen was the only one sitting at the table by the window in the lobby.
Seeing me coming, Gu Chen stood up suddenly but smiled shyly and waved to me.
The light hit his face from the window, and this shy smile was so reminiscent of his smile at the starting line at the sports meeting in high school, as if time had never passed...
I walked to the table in a daze, only to realize that he had ordered a full table.
Sizzling eggplant, sweet and sour pork tenderloin, beef brisket stewed with tomatoes, and Gu’s Eleven Styles, which must be ordered for weddings at Gu’s Hotel.
Sixi meatballs, Buddha jumps over the wall, mandarin duck chicken...
"You are..."
I sat down and looked at him.
"Kevin...I know that I caused you a lot of harm before, you know it too...I want to protect you, but Gu Ming threatened me that if I broke up with him, he would find someone to harm you. I can only use my tricks... ..."
"Let's eat. These so many dishes will be cold if you don't eat them."
I picked up the chopsticks and picked the tenderloin closest to me.
"Kevin...I'm sorry, I didn't tell you in advance because I was afraid that you would reveal your truth if you found out."
Gu Chen tried to hold my hand.
"So you kept it from me, let him bully me, and watched me lying on the cold operating table with cold eyes. Where are you? A love like yours is really incomprehensible."
I shake off his hand.
Gu Chen froze like a deflated balloon, just looked at me, not knowing what to say.
I looked at his aggrieved eyes and sighed.
"Let's eat, don't talk about it."
After dinner he asked me if there was any place I wanted to go, or anything I wanted to do.
I joked with him:
"When I had a crush on you, the thing I wanted to do the most was to take the bus with you, from school to home."
He took me to the bus.
On a sunny afternoon, we sat together in the last window seat of the old-fashioned bus. I opened the window, and the wind gently blew my hair. When I turned around, Gu Chen was sitting next to me, because The light hit his face, and he squinted at the scenery outside the window.
Suddenly, I felt that my heart was full, like the school uniform jacket he gave me at that time, tightly surrounding me.
We sat all the way to the terminal, Gu Chen may have been busy with Gu Ming's affairs, so he fell asleep leaning on my shoulder.
My heart calmed down inexplicably, about Gu Chen's love, about my departure, everything seemed to be turned into strands of silk and drifted in the wind outside the window.
It's really Gu Chen, it's really over.
I sat in my seat at the terminal, but my vision blurred.
"Tch—the sun is too dazzling."
I don't know what Gu Chen thought of waking up alone in the back seat of the bus, anyway, I am determined to never see him again.
However, I have been planning this call for a long time...
"Hu Xia"
"Yo~ Why did Young Master He remember to call me?"
"Why can't I even call you?"
"Ah, what are you talking about? As long as you don't tell your ex-husband that you like me, you can fight as you want."
"Hu Xia!"
"If you call me that, I'm sure nothing will happen."
"I want to go abroad."
"...If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have answered this call."
