Chapter 58 I Thank You Very Much

Gu Heng vaguely felt that Xu Zhiwei on the other end of the phone seemed to have something to say, and he just said: "Wait!" Xu Zhiwei on the other side had already cut it off.

Shen Lian asked: "Have a job? Do you want to call back?"

Gu Heng put down the phone: "It's nothing, nothing."

Shen Lian said with emotion: "You are too busy. I was worried that you would not have time today, and you would not be able to make an appointment."

Gu Heng said: "Coincidentally, I just handed in a job today, so I can chat slowly without rushing."

When Shen Lian heard it, he asked: "Is it the restoration work you mentioned earlier? I'm done now? It feels like time flies. When can I see your new movie?"

Gu Heng smiled: "It's still early. I'm still polishing the script recently, and I'm always not satisfied."

Shen Lian said: "During the Chinese New Year, last week the documentary channel showed your award-winning movie, have you watched it?"

Gu Heng: "No. At that time, I was in such a hurry. I didn't have time to watch TV. Let's watch it later. Did you watch it?"

Shen Lian: "I watched it for 10 minutes...then I accidentally fell asleep."

He smiled apologetically.

Gu Heng let out a "huh" and hurt him: "Then you still say? I still think you support the ratings."

Shen Lian quickly said: "I went to watch the movie three times. I really supported Director Gu's box office."

They talked and laughed all the time, and there was a short pause when the waiter came to serve the food.

They chatted and talked about Gu Heng's photography exhibition before.Shen Lian said: "It's your first exhibition, I don't have time to come, it's a pity."

Gu Heng said: "I will do it again next year, you must come. Will you work in Beijing for a long time in the future?"

Shen Lian said: "Yes. This new branch has just started. I will definitely stay here for a year or two."

Gu Heng: "Didn't you always want to stay in your hometown so that you can take care of your aunt and uncle? I didn't expect you to be so far away from them."

Shen Lian: "Are you laughing at me for loving my family? People always change. I also want to make a difference."

He didn't seem to want to talk about it, so he changed the subject and said, "That's right. Our company is going to shoot a creative advertisement recently. Are you interested? If we can invite a cutting-edge director like you to shoot it, it will definitely get twice the result with half the effort."

Gu Heng said, "That depends on your company's budget."

Shen Lian smiled and said, "Give local companies a discount?"

Both laughed.

Gu Heng asked: "Are you in charge of advertising?"

Shen Lian: "Yes. But I won't talk about it in detail today. I'm not joking with you. This matter must also depend on the schedule and willingness of your studio. If you don't accept it here, I will engage in bidding again. We must meet in the future gone."

Gu Heng: "This seems to be our first cooperation?"

Shen Lian: "Don't talk so fast. Our budget is really not that high."

Gu Heng: "It's okay, I always save money when making movies."

After chatting about work, Shen Lian asked: "Your man

Is it time for a friend to introduce you to me?It's been so long, we can have a meal together in the future. "

Gu Heng said: "He is very busy at work, and he doesn't like to socialize very much. He usually rests at home when he has time after get off work."

Shen Lian smiled and said: "Eh? So it's a hard-working social animal? So I heard you say that your new boyfriend is jealous, so I thought it was a boy in his early twenties, Xiao An's kind of little wild cat."

Gu Heng said: "Wild?"

He didn't know how to describe Xu Zhiwei's feeling, it was hard to generalize.

Seeing him in a daze, Shen Lian asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Heng: "It's nothing. I haven't told you. In fact, you know my new boyfriend. It's just that I haven't told you."

Shen Lian was slightly surprised: "Someone I know? A classmate in Australia?"

Gu Heng: "No, it's a high school classmate, Xu Zhiwei from your first class. You should remember him, right?"

After a moment of silence, Shen Lian's voice softened a little, and he said: "I remember. But... why are you with him again?" He asked incredulously.

Gu Heng asked back: "Are you so surprised?"

Shen Lian nodded: "After all... that happened at that time. Of course it's nothing to now, but it was a thrilling event for us at that time. I thought you wouldn't think of that part again, but I really didn't expect it It will be him."

Gu Heng said: "We also met again by chance. After we met, we talked about the old days, and it felt good, so we went with the flow. He is now a doctor, and he is usually busy."

Shen Lian thought about it for a while: "I know about him being a doctor. I heard it mentioned by my classmates. But he has always been aloof, and he basically doesn't talk in our classmate group. Well, you are together again... Actually, I was in high school. I felt that he was very mature, far beyond the maturity of his peers."

Gu Heng smiled: "Then he is at least more mature than you."

Shen Lian laughed at himself: "That's not true. Compared with him, I look like a fool. I didn't pass the college entrance examination, and I don't know anything about the adult world."

Gu Heng laughed at him: "Are you still worried about the college entrance examination?"

Shen Lian didn't answer his words, but only said: "But Xu Zhiwei should know that you and I are friends, why would you overthink it?"

Gu Heng took a sip of water: "Because I knew you too early, we grew up together, and the relationship between our two families is relatively close. Zhiwei is relatively possessive in this regard."

Shen Lian laughed out loud: "Don't show your affection in front of me! It's too nasty. You two are jealous, don't use me to show it...Forcing a boyfriend to blackmail an old friend, I didn't expect Xu Zhiwei to be so mature People did it, totally unexpected."

Gu Heng smiled wryly: "Maybe he feels more secure this way."

Shen Lian couldn't help but said: "The real sense of security should come from trusting the other party. He doesn't even trust you, so where is the sense of security?"

He consciously made a slip of the tongue, and said, "However, everyone feels different, as long as you feel comfortable."

Gu Heng said: "It's okay, after a while, our project is finalized

Come down and have dinner together.I'll take him with me and we'll meet each other. "

Shen Lian said: "Seeing how reluctant you are, I won't give you any problems. In fact, it's better if you don't know someone at all. I'm afraid that you don't know what to say if you don't know them well. The three of you have an awkward chat, and you have to be careful not to say the wrong thing, and everyone will not have a good chat."

Gu Heng smiled: "Thank you so much."

They stopped talking about Xu Zhiwei, and continued eating.Gu Heng finally asked: "How are you and Xiao Ai? Is she okay recently?"

Shen Lian said, "It's pretty good."

He answered too tersely, and didn't say anything interesting about his wife.

Gu Heng waited again: "What's wrong? Did you quarrel?"

Shen Lian let out a long breath: "Although I gave you love guidance just now, I am not qualified to do it myself. We have been arguing all the time for the past few months..."

Gu Heng worried: "What happened?"

Shen Lian: "I don't know what to say. In fact, we were trying to conceive before we got married. She always wanted to get pregnant early and give birth early, so that she can recover faster and she can focus on school and work. It's just that it's been almost two years. There is no movement, we went to check some time ago...it is my problem."

Gu Heng just looked at Shen Lian: "Did you find a good hospital?"

Shen Lian's voice became softer: "Yes. We checked twice, and there was no mistake. It's hard for me... Forget it, to be honest with you, it's basically impossible for her to be a mother."

Gu Heng's voice became gentle with him, and he comforted: "Don't give up so quickly."

Shen Lian: "We have to respect science, right? To be honest, we don't know what to do. She is healthy and so young, but she is wronged because I have to suffer this kind of trouble. I haven't dared to tell my parents. My dad has not been in good health for a year, and the hospital advised him to have a kidney transplant. But he is at this age, and I think he will come to Beijing to do it, but I don’t know how long it will take..."

He supported his head: "Gu Heng, I actually fled to Beijing. I said it was for work, and I wanted to arrange a hospital for my dad and accompany him to have an operation. In fact, I wanted to escape from my new home more. Go on arguing with her..."

Gu Heng couldn't help but said: "Lian Lian...you have to solve this problem with her."

Shen Lian said: "I want to give myself a period of time to prepare myself mentally, and then... let her go."

Gu Heng was silent for a long time: "Okay."

After talking about this heavy matter, they talked less and were not as enthusiastic as before, but they still had the tacit understanding of old friends.It took an hour and a half to finish a meal.

Xu Zhiwei listened to it for an entire hour and a half.

It wasn't until Gu Heng and Shen Lian got up and left the box that the sound ended.

Xu Zhiwei was still sitting at the table, he seemed to be thinking, but his face was pale.Gu Xin was always by his side, taking a few calls from time to time.He put off a scheduled meeting by not letting anyone in to disturb them.

"Zhiwei, don't feel sorry for him." Gu Xin

Breaking off Xu Zhiwei's shoulder, he gently brushed Xu Zhiwei's cheek with his finger knuckles.

Xu Zhiwei came back to his senses, he pushed Gu Xin's hand away: "I'll go back first."

He wanted to stand up and leave, but lost all strength.Gu Xin supported him: "Lie down here with me."

Xu Zhiwei supported the edge of the table to stand firm, he said in a low voice but firmly: "Thank you, no need."

He didn't know what Gu Xin's specific purpose was.Just because he doesn't want to see Gu Heng doesn't mean he wants to see Gu Xin now.

He doesn't want to see anyone surnamed Gu now.

Just want to stay away from these people.

Gu Xin grabbed him: "Then at least let my driver take you back."

Xu Zhiwei said, "Gu Xin, I thank you very much, but enough is enough."

Gu Xin was startled.The kindness and gentleness that Xu Zhiwei had when he came disappeared, now he only has indifference and bitterness.If he bites his neck with one bite at this time, I'm afraid he can only taste bitterness.Gu Xin let him go.

Xu Zhiwei took the subway silently and returned to the new apartment.

When he got home he felt a sudden sense of irony—they hadn't moved in a month.He only had three weeks of living together like a dream, and Gu Heng was still working overtime for more than half of the time.So it's only twelve days.For the past twelve days, he felt that this was their new home. The room exuded the unique smell of a new house. It was spacious enough and warm enough. He felt that everything was so beautiful.

He and Gu Heng fell asleep hugging each other, thinking that their hearts would stick together from then on, as consummate as a prince getting married in a palace.

He had only twelve such unreal nights.

He pushed open the door, and suddenly found that this was just an ordinary apartment, with simple decoration, and even showed signs of haste.The few grievances raised by Gu Heng before now seem to be true.He didn't even look at the fragrance on the wall.

He walked into the room, took out his suitcase, and stuffed some clothes, computer, and personal belongings into it.Tomorrow he has to go to work as usual.Xu Zhiwei thought, luckily he still has a job.

Mai Mai curiously walked around the open suitcase, which circled around Xu Zhiwei's feet.Xu Zhiwei closed the suitcase, hugged Mai Mai tightly in his arms, and kissed it: "I'll pick you up again in a few days."

The author has something to say: break up.
