Gu Yu pulled a long face while staring intently at the street scene passing by outside the car window. The atmosphere in the car was very gloomy. Jiang Rongye in the driver’s seat drove the car to the destination in silence. Gu Yu didn’t understand what was going on with this person. He calmed down and thought about it. Just now the other party seemed to say that he went to his family’s house to look for him…

With a pouting lip, Gu Yu carefully glanced at Jiang Rongye who was driving. The street lights from outside came into the dim car. The dispersed orange warm light hit Jiang Rongye’s handsome facial features. Looking from Gu Yu’s perspective, even if there is no expression on his face, he still looked good.

What’s the use of having a handsome face, he even can’t pursue the one he loves properly. Gu Yu thought furiously.

Then he recalled that he actually liked this person to the point of being cheap. Gu Yu was even more frustrated. This time, he was completely angry with himself.

Why does he become this useless?

The two came to an estate without words. Gu Yu looked at the buildings outside the window and he couldn’t help but clicked his tongue. Although it is not clear under the dim light of night, he could see that this environment and Gu Yu’s place are on different levels. He got out of the car and followed Jiang Rongye to his house. For a moment, Gu Yu’s eyes were stiff when the door opened.

Gu Yu had racked his brain and could only use one word to describe it—big. He couldn’t compare this with the apartment he lived in! The interior layout is simple, with basic furniture such as sofas and TVs. There are three rooms, one was turned into a study room by Jiang Rongye, one was the master bedroom, and the other was a vacant room.

Gu Yu’s shock was not unusual, after all, he still knows more or less about Jiang Rongye. When he first entered this neighborhood area, he can see that the house prices here were not cheap. After recovered from his shock, Gu Yu swept a glance at the back of Jiang Rongye. His heart couldn’t bear to have such a huge gap.

They are obviously childhood friends, but this gap is really huge.

For the first time, Gu Yu felt Li Baishi’s jealousy for someone that was ‘Mr. Perfect’.

“Your room is there.” Jiang Rongye pointed his finger to a room. Gu Yu glanced, “Oh”. Without turning back, he walked in.

Opening the door and turn on the light, Gu Yu can see clearly the room that will be temporarily occupied for a few days. The room is quite large, the layout is simple but it wasn’t lost the style. The wallpaper is in beige, there is a white large bed in the middle of the room with two short cabinets on its side. The wardrobe’s color is pure white. There is a wooden table that was suitable for putting the computer on it.

Gu Yu walked in without looking back. He put the backpack aside, flipped out the charger from the inside to charge the phone, and found the plug near the table. When he squatted down to plug in the charger, he found something that looked like an ID card. He picked it up, turned it over, and looked at it. Xu Nan’s photo and name appeared before his eyes.

It stated the job position and the company. Xu Nan is an employee of an IT company. This seems like he accidentally drops it. Gu Yu stood up, his expression was unclear. He looked at the ID card in his hand again and he laughed at himself.

It is estimated that Xu Nan has stayed in this room before, otherwise, how could he leave something here?

Jiang Rongye stood at the door and knocked it. Gu Yu looked up at him. He was about to open his mouth when he saw Gu Yu stepping forward with something in his hand, then hand it over to him.

He took a look and found that it was Xu Nan’s ID card. After that, he heard Gu Yu speak with a light implication.

“The relationship between you two is so good. Don’t delay it any longer, maybe ‘someone’ will accept it on impulse during his break up now?”

To tell the truth, Gu Yu himself did not know why he said such ambiguous words. He just felt that his chest was blocked. As soon as he saw Jiang Rongye, he couldn’t help saying such things that he would not normally say.

He thought that at this moment he was a bit… jealous? Tsk, it’s really annoying.

Jiang Rongye frowned slightly when he heard Gu Yu’s words. He seemed to think of something, then he calmly said, “He just came to stay for a few days once in a while.” Gu Yu snorted, thinking that the relationship between those two was really good. Somewhat flustered, he slightly lowered his head. Then, he raised his head and there was no expression in his face.

Suppressing the ironic impulse to respond, Gu Yu took a step back, hold the doorknob, looked at Jiang Rongye, and grinned. “I’m going to sleep. Bye.” Then he closed the door mercilessly and locked it. Standing outside the door, Jiang Rongye was dumbfounded. He looked at the door in front of him and frowned slightly.

Things like sleep were just an excuse. Gu Yu turned back to the room and was upset. After standing foolishly for a while on the door, he took out the computer from the bag, connected it to the charger and hugged it. He came to the bed and leaned on the headboard. with the computer on his lap, the grief and anger turned into motivation, and he started writing.

When you write something as a hobby, the more you write, the more you can’t stop. As a full-time writer, Gu Yu vented his depression in his story. He could write nearly 30,000 words at one go. After that, the depression in his heart dissipated a lot and he would be relieved. He stretched out to soothe the sore waist. Looking at the time, it was already a quarter past midnight.

After writing for so long, Gu Yu suddenly felt an urge to pee. He quickly saved the story in panic and left the computer to prepare to go out. However, he recalled the atmosphere between him and Jiang Rongye and did not want to go out. But where could he relieved his physiological need. He had no choice but to pull open the door a little and looked out. He found out that the living room was dark and Gu Yu felt relieved.

He thought that at this time, it is estimated that Jiang Rongye has fallen asleep. He often stays up all night to write, and his schedule is indefinite. That’s why he can’t be like the office worker who sleeps and wakes up regularly every day. Gu Yu settled the physiological needs and opened the toilet door. As soon as he looked up, he saw a man standing at the door.

“……”

Gu Yu stiffly closed the door again, his heart thumped nonstop. Shit, what was that just now! Is Jiang Rongye’s house was haunted? WTF!!! Fortunately, I’ve settled it. Or else, I would be scared to urinate!!

“It’s me.”

Hearing a familiar voice from outside the door, Gu Yu’s thumping heart finally calmed down. He carefully reopened the door. This time he finally saw that the person outside the door was Jiang Rongye. After he calmed down, he frowned and glaring at him angrily. Why is this man standing in front of the toilet door in the middle of the night like a ghost while he should be sleeping? Either he is crazy or he is awfully idle!

Jiang Rongye looked at Gu Yu’s appearance and don’t know whether to laugh or to cry. He just heard the sound of the door opened and came out to see. As a result, he just stood at the door of the toilet when the other party opened the door. After seeing him, he immediately closed the door. When he thought about it, he knew that this guy was scared and he thought it was a ghost.

“What are you doing in the middle of the night and tried to scare anyone!”

“Isn’t it you.”

“…” Gu Yu didn’t expect this person to answer so straightforwardly. He immediately refreshed his shamelessness, glaring at him unhappily and retorted, “This father was not frightened, move aside!” He pushed Jiang Rongye and returned to his room without turning back.

After Gu Yu returned to the room, his stomach suddenly growled.

In his home, when he stayed up all night, he would cook some midnight snacks to eat. At this time, it has been a while since he ate the bento from Mother Li on the road. His stomach has a regular time schedule. As long as he has not slept when midnight comes, It will growl.

Although Gu Yu is not a foodie like Li Baishi, he can’t stand the hunger. If he doesn’t eat something to fill his stomach, he can’t sleep at night. But there was nothing in this room for him to eat. Gu Yu searched inside his backpack. He found a lollipop, but it was strawberry-flavored.

……It’s really heartbreaking.

After hesitating in the room for a long while, Gu Yu sneaked out his head to see if Jiang Rongye was still outside. As a result, Jiang Rongye who was standing in the living room suddenly turned around and directly met Gu Yu’s eyes, his hand holding a pack instant noodles.

Gu Yu’s stomach growled again.

Gu Yu slammed the door shut. His face turned red. He patted his stomach and cursed it, why is it so disappointing!

“Xiao Yu, do you want to eat something?”

Jiang Rongye’s voice sounded outside the door. Gu Yu struggled but eventually lost to the temptation of food. He opened the door dejectedly. Jiang Rongye was wearing casual clothes and holding a pack of instant noodles. After seeing him come out, he deliberately shook his hand in front of his face. Gu Yu intentionally put on a grim look when walking out of the room.

After seeing Jiang Rongye holding a large bowl and a kettle to boil water and was about to open the instant noodles, Gu Yu was stunned.

“…You just pour it directly?”

“Otherwise?”

Looking at Jiang Rongye’s ‘of course’ look, Gu Yu twitched his mouth. He grabbed the instant noodles from his hands and glared at him, “It does not taste good by cooking it this way. Do you have eggs?”

In the end, Gu Yu entered the kitchen and cooked two packs of noodles. He added two eggs and ham sausage. When he brought the noodles to the outside, he saw Jiang Rongye’s unexpected look and couldn’t help but feel a little proud of himself.

Jiang Rongye really didn’t expect Gu Yu can cook because he couldn’t cook. He was the type that just devotes to work. He has no shortage of meals because there are dinner parties and so on. If he stayed all day long at the company, he would casually eat in the canteen. If he’s at home, he would order takeout or just make an instant noodle. Fortunately, he was in good health and exercised a lot to maintain his figure and physique.

Now, he saw Gu Yu make the instant noodles that he had never seen before. The point is that it tastes really good. Remembering the instant noodles that he had eaten before, Jiang Rongye felt for the first time in his life that what he had eaten before was garbage.

At midnight, they sat in the living room and ate the instant noodles, the smell spread in the air.

After filling up his stomach, Gu Yu completely forgot the earlier unpleasantness. He drank the water given by Jiang Rongye. Then, he suddenly remembered what happened to Xu Nan in the afternoon and shifted his eyes. In the end, he still couldn’t endure, and end up saying everything. In the middle of it, he also observed some changes in Jiang Rongye’s expression. From beginning to end, the other party only narrowed his eyes slightly.

“Say do you want to court him?” Gu Yu propped his chin and pretended to be indifferent.

A while has passed but the other party did not answer. Jiang Rongye just stood up, picked up the two bowls on the table, entered the kitchen, and walked out after a while.

“It’s late, go to sleep.”

Gu Yu glanced at Jiang Rongye, narrowed his eyes, and finally said goodnight before turning back to the room. He held the computer, sat on the bed, and stared at it silently for a while. In the end, he murmured angrily.

“Is it so hard to tell me, so stingy!”
