Chapter 47 We Can Only Have This Relationship
Of course Butler Qin knew that although he had already returned to his hometown at that time, he was the butler of the Gu family after all. Occasionally, when the servants asked about something, they would call him and say a few words to him.
In particular, Gu Cheng's illness was diagnosed before Butler Qin left.
"It's... late stage kidney cancer." The old man mentioned Gu Cheng, with even more sadness on his face, "Master is actually a very good person. He must have been too worried about his family and business when he was young, so he broke his health."
Qin Butler already knew that Sheng Ningyue's parents might have something to do with Bai Jing, so he knew everything about these past events, so there was nothing to hide.
Sheng Ningyue stayed for a while, then drove back to the apartment.
On the way, he received a phone call. A selection contest for voice actors was going to be held in the neighboring city recently. Although he didn't focus on recording, for the sake of fame, he would definitely reserve a place in the jury.
In addition, Sheng Ningyue's studio was in a neighboring city before, and it was difficult for him to refuse the sincere invitation.
He turned to the studio on the way, and Zhong Nuo happened to be there. Seeing him coming alone, the other party asked puzzledly, "Hey, where are your two assistants?"
"I didn't call them, I decided to come here." Sheng Ningyue is basically a hands-off shopkeeper now, and most of the things are left to Zhong Nuo and Zhang Moxin. Although they both feel that he has been mysterious recently, it is not easy to ask too much. What.
Sheng Ningyue went straight to the point and mentioned that he was going to be a judge for "Sound Neighborhood". Zhong Nuo smiled and said, "It's a good thing. I just happen to be going to dub Song Liang's play these two days, so I won't follow you go."
"Then I'll go with you~" Zhang Moxin approached from the side, wishing that Zhong Nuo would not go, so that he could successfully usurp the throne.
He used to follow Sheng Ningyue. If the new studio hadn't just been established and there were too many chores, Sheng Ningyue wouldn't need to hire any assistants at all. He was originally Sheng Ningyue's assistant.
"You stay and look at the studio, I'll take Wen Bo and Gu Sichen there together."
"I see that there has been heavy rain in the neighboring city in the past two days. You should pay attention, especially when driving." Zhong Nuo casually flipped through the weather forecast app and urged.
"Don't worry, it's fine."
Sheng Ningyue tagged Fang Wenbo and Gu Sichen in the group, and asked them to prepare daily necessities and contact the organizer of "Sound Neighborhood".
In order to be able to come to Sheng Ningyue to work here, Fang Wenbo did a lot of homework in advance. He knew that Sheng Ningyue was most disgusted with cheating, and some talent shows did have scripts, that is to say, the winners had already been decided in advance. The teacher makes a show and cooperates.
But Sheng Ningyue will never go to any form of this kind.
Therefore, in the communication with "Sound Neighbor", Fang Wenbo repeatedly asked if there was a script, and only after getting the guarantee from the other party did he agree to sign the contract.
"Well done." Sheng Ningyue was very satisfied with his efficiency and praised him without hesitation.
However, this scene looked different in Gu Sichen's eyes. A cold light fell from the man's dark eyes, and the dark light covered the corners of his eyes, making him look indescribably melancholy.
Sheng Ningyue didn't pay much attention to his emotions, but asked indifferently: "Have you prepared all the items I asked you to prepare?"
"Okay." Gu Sichen hid the darkness in his eyes and stabilized his thoughts. He kept reminding himself not to do anything out of line. If Sheng Ningyue really chose Fang Wenbo in the end, he would let go and give his best wishes. these two people.
No matter how unwilling he is, he has to suppress it.
Sheng Ningyue gave a "hmm", there are important things to do right now, of course he didn't have time to "trouble" Gu Sichen, so he set off with the two of them the next morning.
Gu Sichen is a life assistant, and it is his job to drive. Along the way, Sheng Ningyue and Fang Wenbo sat in the back row. Fang Wenbo continued to introduce him to the rules and precautions of the "Sound Neighbor" competition. The boy nodded frequently, from time to time Just a few words of praise.
Fang Wenbo is indeed a very serious person, Sheng Ningyue also said a few words subconsciously, but Gu Sichen in the front row pressed his thin lips tightly, frequently looking at them from the rearview mirror, the hand on the steering wheel always Trembling uncontrollably.
Whenever the two of them talked about something happy, Gu Sichen's acupuncture sensation would become more intense, his cheeks would keep sweating, and the scene in front of him would become blurred.
With a whoosh, a truck passed by their body closely, and the loud honking of the horn made Gu Sichen step on the brakes soberly.
Sheng Ningyue was not wearing a seat belt, and was pushed forward by inertia, and pulled back by Fang Wenbo, who reacted quickly.
Gu Sichen was dripping with cold sweat, panting for a few breaths, the acupuncture sensation gradually subsided, he put his hand on his head, and kept saying, "I'm sorry..."
Sheng Ningyue wanted to get angry, but facing Gu Sichen's cold and terrified eyes, the words of reprimand were stuck in his throat, and he couldn't pronounce any syllables.
Fang Wenbo got out of the car quickly, went to the driver's seat and knocked on the window, and said with concern, "How are you, Actor Gu? Can I drive this part of the road instead?"
Gu Sichen also knew that his state was not suitable for driving, so he didn't procrastinate, and quickly moved to the co-pilot instead of going to the back seat.
The voices in his ears were a bit noisy. It was obvious that the car was quiet, but the voices of Sheng Ningyue and Fang Wenbo's discussion played back, looped, and played back in his ears from time to time, making him upset.
Fang Wenbo got off to a steady start, looked at the rearview mirror and said with a smile, "Mr. Sheng, take a good look. If you have any questions, wait until we get there."
"Okay." Sheng Ningyue stared at Gu Sichen, then leaned back in the chair.
Zhong Nuo's reminder was really accurate. At night, just after they entered the neighboring city, thunderstorms rolled over their heads one after another. It seemed as if a storm was coming soon.
Sheng Ningyue looked left and right, pointed to a small restaurant and said, "Wenbo, stop the car at the entrance of the restaurant, let's go in and have a meal, and take shelter from the rain."
The three of them got out of the car, the thunder above their heads was still ringing, there were already many people sitting in the small restaurant, they had no choice but to sit at the door.
The neighboring city is no better than the flower market. In the early years, this place was still a village, full of crops. Later, the flower market was expanded, and by the way, it was also done here.
Today, it can barely be considered a second-tier, but many projects are not up to standard, at most they occupy a good position.
This place was originally named Qinghe Village, but now it has been upgraded to Qinghe City. Because it is close to the flower market capital, everyone likes to call it "neighboring city".
Zhong Nuo originally arranged for him to be hospitalized here, in fact, there were some personal reasons.
Because the medical expenses here are cheaper, although the medical reserves are not advanced enough, Sheng Ningyue's condition was not serious at the time, but his survival awareness was not strong, and he was in a coma autonomously. At most, he used nutritional injections every day to maintain a basic life. signs.
Sitting at the table, Gu Sichen felt a lot of emotion when thinking about the past.
He went crazy looking for Sheng Ningyue, but at first he couldn't find Zhong Nuo. Gu Sichen always thought that Zhang Moxin and Sheng Ningyue were closer, so most of his energy was spent on Zhang Moxin.
It wasn't until now that he suddenly remembered that one of the few times he met Zhong Nuo, the man seemed to be panicking about getting on a long-distance bus in a neighboring city. He stopped someone to ask Sheng Ningyue, Zhong Nuo just shook his head meaningfully, lying Said he hadn't seen it.
It was raining outside the house, the weather was stuffy, and there were so many people in the small restaurant, the boss had to keep the door wide open all the time.
Gu Sichen sat on the outermost side, and Sheng Ningyue and Fang Wenbo sat next to each other across from him. The dust on the dirt road was kicked up by huge raindrops, and instantly rolled into mud spots, which kept flying in and splashing on his shoe uppers. and pant legs.
But he was just absent-minded, staring at the greasy marks on the table in a daze, even when the boss came to ask him what he wanted to eat, he blurted out "whatever".
Sheng Ningyue felt that this person was a bit weird, could it be that he touched some inner defense line?
He thought of the past that Butler Qin had mentioned. Although he didn't want to admit it, he also knew that it was impossible for a person like Gu Sichen who lacked love and suffered severe persecution when he was a child to be mentally normal.
He conveniently ordered fried noodles for the man, biting a piece of dry biscuit, and continued to discuss with Fang Wenbo.
The rain outside the house was getting heavier and heavier, and all the cars parked by the door were cleaned up for free. There were two tables chatting quietly, and the discussion was not too loud, and it spread quickly.
"I heard that "Sound Neighborhood" held another audition. Didn't everything go wrong last time? Aren't they afraid?"
"What's the matter? Let's hear it."
"It seems that there was a little boy named Pigeon who was withdrawn in the middle of the race. After hearing that he quit the race, he suffered from severe depression. He rushed to one of the judges on the way back and took revenge."
"I also know about this, but in the end it didn't really make a big fuss. Isn't that kid sick? There's no way to convict him. Besides, he just splashed paint on the judge's car, but he didn't really kill anyone."
"What dove is it called? A white dove?"
"I do not know."
Sheng Ningyue listened to it, but didn't take it seriously. The boss brought three servings of fried noodles. Seeing that the rain was pouring more and more, and the threshold was low, he had to wave his hand to close the wooden door and turn on a few ceiling fans hanging on the wall.
"I'm sorry everyone, if you feel hot, those of you who are near the windows can open the windows for ventilation."
The door was closed tightly, and among the messy posters pasted on the door panel, there happened to be a promotional poster for "Sound Neighborhood". There happened to be a voice player named "Yu Ge".
Sheng Ningyue and the others had already booked a hotel before they came, and the location of the hotel was near the studio hall of "Sound Neighbor", which was very convenient.
But now, it has been raining heavily for several hours, which can no longer be called ordinary rain, but a rain disaster.
The ground around the small restaurant is not very smooth, and the potholes have been completely filled with rainwater at this moment. Some customers who have eaten and hurried to leave open the door and step out. The rainwater directly covered his ankles, and the person shrank immediately. back.
"How is this good?" Fang Wenbo also showed a little anxiety, "I just read the news. Due to the heavy rain, driving is prohibited all the way, and the bus and subway are also stopped."
Sheng Ningyue quietly stared at the rain falling outside the window, and Gu Sichen who had never spoken on the other side said in a low voice, "This place is less than one kilometer away from the hotel, so it's not too far to walk there."
Fang Wenbo: "That's right, but we also saw it just now. As soon as the man went out, he was stabbed in the foot by a stone. The road is too uneven. It's not safe to go out rashly."
Gu Sichen didn't speak, but Sheng Ningyue stood up, "It's past ten o'clock, the later you go, the more dangerous it is, you can't stay here overnight."
Tomorrow morning at [-]:[-], there is still an audition recording to be filmed. The time is too urgent, and a lot of preparatory work has not been done. It is very inconvenient to stay in this restaurant.
He was a little annoyed, "Blame me, Wen Bo shouldn't have parked his car here just now."
"I don't blame you, no one knows that the rain will never end." Gu Sichen said silently, pushed the door and stepped out.
After standing outside the door with both feet, the piercing cold rain seemed to find some fun, and it pressed against his exposed ankle all the way up, the cold air was blowing suddenly, Gu Sichen took a deep breath, it was a bit cold.
The customers who stayed in the small restaurant to hide from the rain saw his actions and stood up in horror, "Young man, come in quickly, you will easily get sick if you step on the rain like this!"
"That's right. At worst, if we stay here for one night, the boss will not disagree. Anyway, he can't leave, can he?"
Sheng Ningyue and Fang Wenbo glanced at each other, and walked quickly to the door.
Sheng Ningyue grabbed the door panel and wanted to reach him, but Gu Sichen avoided it directly. The boy's face was sullen, and he shouted in a low voice: "Gu Sichen, come in for me immediately!"
"Don't you want to go back to the hotel?" The man's tone was flat, his face was covered by rain, and even the expression that should have been blurred.
"You come in first!" Sheng Ningyue didn't want to argue with him, so what if he wanted to go back. In the current situation, it was clear that he couldn't go back. He had to think about what to do.
Fang Wenbo beside him also leaned forward to pull him, and said anxiously: "Gu Yingdi, come in first, what if you get sick from the rain?"
Gu Sichen didn't say anything, turned around and approached the rain curtain, wrapped in the blue mist thrown up by the rain, the tall silhouette crumbled into pieces bit by bit, and then disappeared into the street.
After an unknown amount of time, the man came back again with a raincoat and a wheelbarrow. Gu Sichen also put on a raincoat himself, parked the car aside, and walked in.
Gu Sichen was too tall, and the hem of his raincoat couldn't cover it. He rolled up his trousers, revealing his thin legs with blue veins. The leather shoes on his feet had been soaked, so he could only pull them on.
"Here, put on the raincoat, I'll push you back." Gu Sichen said, and handed the raincoat to Sheng Ningyue.
Sheng Ningyue opened her big clear eyes in shock, and blinked twice unnaturally, "You, you..."
The road is being built nearby, and there are small shops on both sides. Raincoats are a must-have item in small supermarkets in this season, and they are naturally easy to buy. He borrowed the wheelbarrow from the people on the construction site. It happened that the heavy rain wiped the car very clean. out of his business.
Sheng Ningyue put on the raincoat. He is small in stature. The raincoat not only fits well on his body, but also has a piece of cuff growing out. He moved his arm and said awkwardly, "If you can walk back, so can I."
Gu Sichen didn't have time to pull him, so the boy rushed out awkwardly, "Ouch", before taking two steps, he was pierced by a stone and almost fell to the ground.
Fang Wenbo wanted to go out to help him, but instinctively raised his head to glance at the heavy rain, he was two beats behind Gu Sichen, the man had already gone out first, he picked him up horizontally, and put him directly on the wheelbarrow.
"Put me down!" Sheng Ningyue didn't know what to do, but there were so many people in the small restaurant, they all ran out to watch the excitement.
He was wearing a funny raincoat and was hugged by Princess Gu Sichen again. Today, this guy is a big loser.
Gu Sichen leaned over to protect him, to prevent him from being poured into the rain. Seeing Sheng Ningyue's ears turned red from embarrassment, and his hands fluttered, he deliberately lowered his voice and said, "Don't make trouble, my skills are not very good. If the car overturns later, The stone pierced your face and disfigured you, you only have me as a choice."
The man just said a few words to scare him, and Sheng Ningyue immediately stopped moving.
Seeing him rolling himself into a small ball, with both hands still carefully grasping the sides of the wheelbarrow, the man bent his knees like a cat, stared at the road vigilantly, and suddenly twitched the corners of his mouth, "It turns out that he looks fierce. It's all just pretending, and my temper is still the same as before."
"..." Sheng Ningyue's ears were sharp. Hearing his words, he closed his eyes and murmured, "Why do you bring it up again..."
Gu Sichen didn't say anything, he just looked at the road seriously.
When he came here, he walked through it once, and he had figured out where the road was smooth. Now it was easy to push Sheng Ningyue, and the two arrived at the hotel in a panic. Gu Sichen wanted to return the car, but Sheng Ningyue raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "You don't Do you want to take Wenbo?"
"I'm not going." The man pulled the car and left without giving him a chance to ask a second sentence.
Sheng Ningyue stopped there and looked at him for a while, and had no choice but to call Fang Wenbo to report his safety, and asked him to stay in the restaurant temporarily until the rain stopped before coming back.
When Gu Sichen came back, Sheng Ningyue happened to be carrying the medicine box provided by the hotel, bouncing up and down in front of the bed.
The sole of his foot was pierced. It is inevitable that the serious situation will delay work tomorrow morning. We can only deal with it urgently and go to the hospital to have a look after the event is over.
Without further ado, Gu Sichen took the medicine box, squatted down and put his feet on his knees, just like putting on his shoes last time.
Sheng Ningyue's insteps were translucent white, and felt a little cold to the touch. The heavy rain had been pouring down for several hours, and the high temperature had long since been washed away. Now he was shivered by the warm light in the room, and his toes curled up. Curled up, I wanted to take it back, "I'll take the medicine myself."
"Your eyes are on the soles of your feet?"
"You..." Sheng Ningyue was gagged, and he didn't know what to say to go back.
Usually he is eloquent, but he loses the chain at critical moments. How could he forget that Gu Sichen has a powerful mouth? It must be that the other party has always given way to him recently, giving him the illusion that he is stronger than this man...
Gu Sichen lowered his head, with a serious face, first wiped his feet clean with a disinfectant towel, then warmed his hands, and then concentrated on applying the medicine.
The man was cautious and his hands were light. Sheng Ningyue didn't really feel any pain except for a burst of coolness.
This hotel is equipped with the best equipment in the city. Even if no one is staying in the room, it is always fragrant. The warm wind floats in the air, and the fragrance quickly spreads around, and the atmosphere suddenly becomes a little warmer/ ambiguous.
Gu Sichen didn't let go of his feet after applying the medicine, but just put his hands on the bones of his ankles, with the skin and bones sticking to the back of his hands, giving him an indescribably strange feeling.
Sheng Ningyue saw that something was wrong with his gaze, and quickly drew back his foot, covered it with a quilt, and warned: "Thank you for today's matter, but don't think too much, we will all be bosses and subordinates from now on." relationship, and it will be in the future.”
Sheng Ningyue admitted that when he heard Butler Qin talk about Gu Sichen's past, his desire for revenge did soften a little.
At first, he thought that Gu Sichen had a happy family and he was the worst one.
But obviously not.
Qin Butler only said a few words, and he didn't say a word of those details, not because he didn't want to say it, but because Sheng Ningyue didn't want to hear it, and Sheng Ningyue didn't want to sympathize with Gu Sichen, which would affect his belief in revenge.
Sheng Ningyue was a little shaken, but everything can at least be concluded after the results of Souls come out.
Just the only point.
He never thought of getting back together with Gu Sichen again, Gu Sichen has no ability to love, he will never forget this matter.
Because Gu Sichen was so good at disguising, he couldn't tell whether what the person in front of him had done to him was another deliberate disguising.
"Well... rest early." Gu Sichen stood up weakly, with his eyes downcast from the beginning to the end, looking like a walking dead.
Sheng Ningyue saw his weirdness, but didn't ask any more questions.
He stared at the man's back, until the man disappeared completely, and he saw a little blood at the place where the man had just squatted, fresh, and followed the footprints out of the room.
Is Gu Sichen also injured?
Gu Sichen was indeed injured, the road on the construction site was difficult to walk, the soles of his leather shoes were pierced through, and there was a huge blood hole in his foot, so he was in a bad mood.
He didn't know how he endured the pain all the way and pushed Sheng Ningyue back. He only knew that he just wanted to bring Sheng Ningyue back today, and he didn't want this person to stay in the restaurant and suffer.
Gu Sichen was lying on the bed spinning, and he had a physical rejection reaction during the day.
It was because he heard Sheng Ningyue and Fang Wenbo's communication, the relaxed and peaceful atmosphere of the two deeply stimulated him, thinking of Fang Wenbo, Gu Sichen's eyes were filled with sharp red.
Like the huge mouth of a ferocious beast, the strong desire for monopoly forced him not to calm down.
He gradually felt his throat getting stuffy, and the air was blocked from all directions. He wanted to take a big breath, but his eyes were getting darker and darker. Gu Sichen had never told anyone that when he was sick, he would occasionally appear horrified. hallucinations and suffocation.
The last time this feeling appeared was the day when he had a showdown with Sheng Ningyue.
Gu Sichen waved his hands and fluttered a few times, he couldn't breathe no matter how hard he tried, his mind was buzzing, the knocking sound of "dong dong dong" came from far to near...
After a long time, he propped himself up from the bed and sat up with difficulty.
Percussion?
Knock on the door?
Gu Sichen didn't know if he was hallucinating, but subconsciously, he put on his slippers and got out of bed to the door, and continued to make a numb voice like a walking dead, "Who?"
No one responded.
Gu Sichen was afraid that something might happen to Sheng Ningyue, or that the waiter would call him, so he slowly pulled down the doorknob and opened the door.
There was no sound in the corridor, only a few wall lamps pressed against the wall, giving off a light yellow halo, and the carpet was maroon, painted with ordinary patterns of bad streets.
But the point is not this.
Gu Sichen found out in a daze that there was a small milky white medicine box standing on top of the group of vulgar patterns.
And this medicine box, he just used it.
