Gu Jinyao raised the corners of his lips, his tone a little sarcastic, "May I ask in what capacity do you propose marriage?"
Gu Aoting's eyes dodge slightly, not daring to look directly at him, "As my cousin, I'm going to propose marriage."
"Uncle?"
"Well, Gu Zhengrong is my cousin and you are my nephew. I think the cousin's status is better."
Gu Jinyao smiled mockingly to himself, "Is it your cousin's turn to worry about such a grand matter like proposing a marriage?"
Gu Aoting's expression stiffened, "Being in this position, I can't have too much negative news, but I really care about you, and I hope you can understand my difficulties."
Gu Jinyao raised his hand and made a stopping gesture, "I understand you, I understand you very much. Just go. I'm fine and I don't need you to be hypocritical."
Gu Aoting was a little anxious, "I'm not pretending, I'm sincere."
Gu Jinyao put one hand in his pocket, "Does it make sense? It's just that I'm getting old, and suddenly my conscience feels like it, and I want to make amends. Who cares about your apology?"
When he was young, he was chased and scolded as a wild brat who had no father by the village boys. At that time, he needed a father.
After going to school, he was ostracized by his classmates and poked in the back by the villagers. At that time, he also needed his father.
When he was a child, he often saw other children being held by their father's hands. At that time, he longed for his father's love.
When I was twelve years old, there was a fire and I almost died.
The treatment abroad required skin grafting and surgery again and again, and the pain was excruciating.
That's when he needed his father the most.
Gu Aoting didn't show up when he was needed most.
Now that he is living well, he comes to refresh his sense of presence from time to time.
It's said to be making amends, but actually it's just to relieve one's guilt.
Gu Jinyao couldn't help but sneer again and again.
Gu Aoting stared at the sneer on his lips, knowing it well.
There was silence for a while.
Gu Aoting raised his hand to rub his sore eyes, "I know you must blame me in your heart, but I have a family, and it was an accident with your mother back then. No matter in the past or now, I can't recognize you, so I can only make up for you in private. "
Gu Jinyao straightened his shoulders and back, "I said, I don't need you to make up for it, let alone feel sorry for me."
Gu Aoting lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry."
"No need, just go."
Gu Aoting stood up with difficulty, holding his knees with both hands.
Put your feet up and walk out.
Compared with the brisk pace when he came, his steps were much slower.
The door closes.
The world finally calmed down.
Gu Jinyao's irritability gradually disappeared.
He lowered his eyes and stared at the photos on the coffee table.
Every picture is very clear and has high pixels.
Obviously, he didn't search it online, he should have asked Yun Kuohai for it.
Gu Jinyao leaned over and picked up a crystal photo, and gently rubbed Yun Jin's flowery face with his fingers.
She is smiling in the photo.
Laughing in every picture.
His eyebrows and lips are curved when he smiles, and his smile is as bright as the stars, which is very contagious.
The corners of Gu Jinyao's lips couldn't help but rise.
How come there are girls who love to laugh so much?
It was so sunny that there seemed to be no haze at all.
Gu Jinyao picked a large crystal photo and placed it on the TV cabinet, and the smaller one on the entrance shelf.
Then he took the rest into the study and put them on the desk and bookcase.
I want the environment in which I live to be filled with Yun Jin’s shadow everywhere.
But when he picked up his wallet, Gu Jinyao hesitated.
Staring at Su Hua's pretty face in the wallet, Gu Jinyao felt a dull pain in his heart.
When he was burned when he was young and the pain was unbearable, he relied on this photo to survive.
In the supernatural team, this photo accompanied him through every thrilling day.
When he fell into the sea in a plane crash, he also relied on this photo to support him until he was rescued.
This photo has been with him since he was twelve years old.
Been with him for sixteen full years.
It's no longer just a photo.
It is a symbol, a belief, and a kind of support.
Gu Jinyao pinched the small photo, took it out, and stuffed it back, pulled it out, and stuffed it back again.
Finally reluctant to change.
Suddenly, a harsh cell phone ringtone broke the silence.
Gu Jinyao bent down and picked up the phone.
A glance at the caller ID revealed that it was Qin Ye calling.
Gu Jinyao paused for a moment and pressed connect.
Qin Ye said: "Lao Gu said you were angry and asked me to call you to comfort you."
Gu Jinyao was silent and said, "Don't tell him about me in the future."
Qin Ye's expression froze slightly, "Anyway, he is a matchmaker and has always cared about you and Yun Jin. He asks me every now and then, how are you doing? It's rare that you make any progress, so I will tell him."
Gu Jinyao said: "I'm very annoyed by him."
Qin Ye paused, "I was quite annoyed with him at first, but later I realized that he is a person with many shortcomings, but he also has merits. If he wants to care about you, let him care about you. He is a lot older. I can’t find a sense of presence in my mother, I can only find it in others.”
Gu Jinyao pursed his lips and said nothing.
It took him a long while before he spoke, "I'm different from you. You are his serious son. Who am I? I'm just an illegitimate son, not worthy of his sense of existence."
There was dead silence on the phone.
Qin Ye didn't say anything for a long time.
Gu Jinyao hung up the phone gently.
I went to the kitchen to make breakfast and then went to the shooting gallery.
When I usually come to the shooting studio, I only practice shooting for half an hour.
This time he stayed here all morning.
I still feel uneasy after coming out.
After lunch, he went to the horse farm again and rode horses all afternoon.
When I got home, it was already dark.
As soon as he got out of the elevator, Gu Jinyao saw a tall man standing at the door. He had a cold profile, handsome eyebrows, and complicated eyes, a little tired.
It's Qin Ye.
Gu Jinyao glanced at him, "How long have you been here?"
"about an hour."
"Don't you know the password for my door lock? Why don't you go in and be the doorkeeper here?"
Qin Ye didn't speak, just moved away silently.
Gu Jinyao entered his fingerprint to open the door.
Qin Ye stood outside the door and did not move.
Gu Jinyao glanced back at him, "Come in."
Qin Ye then opened his long legs and walked into the house.
"Boom."
Qin Ye closed the door gently.
Gu Jinyao walked towards the kitchen, "Have you eaten?"
"without."
Gu Jinyao asked: "What do you want to eat? I'll cook it for you."
"I don't want to eat anything."
"Then you should be hungry."
As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Jinyao suddenly felt a tightness in his waist.
Qin Ye hugged him from behind.
Gu Jinyao's figure suddenly froze, and the feeling of discomfort spread throughout his body instantly.
He said coldly: "Let go."
Qin Ye didn't let go.
Gu Jinyao frowned, "If you don't let go, I'll take action."
Qin Ye hugged him tighter.
Gu Jinyao's voice was slightly cold, "Don't go crazy, I'm from the supernatural team and I have blood on my hands. If you really want to take action, you can't beat me."
Qin Ye put his chin on his shoulder, "Did you know? I heard that you were Gu Aoting's illegitimate son. I hated you very much at the time. You and your mother must have broken my mother's heart over the years."
Gu Jinyao's face turned cold, "So you're here to settle a score with me?"
Qin Ye said to himself: "I thought about it for a long time, what's wrong with you? It's not your decision to be an illegitimate child, you are also a victim. I didn't have a mother when I was a child, and you didn't have a father when you were a child. It's okay that I didn't have a mother, thank you Most people say you were picked up, but you have no father, but you have to bear the reputation of being an illegitimate child. Twenty-eight years ago, the atmosphere was not as open as it is now, and you grew up in a small mountain village, so you must have been criticized. Point, scold this and that, and suffer all the looks and discrimination. I think you must have lived a harder life than me when you were a child."
Gu Jinyao listened calmly, "So you just thought about it yourself and don't blame me?"
"It was you who took me in and helped me wholeheartedly when I was in my most difficult time. If it weren't for your help during my trip to Myanmar, my life would have been decided there. In fact, you regarded me as your brother at that time, right? Bar?"
Gu Jinyao slightly raised the corners of his lips, "You just know?"
"I'm just saying, nothing is good without a reason."
Gu Jinyao turned his head and looked at him, "So can you let go of me?"
"Let me hold you for a little while longer."
"You are so clingy." Gu Jinyao said with disgust.
She felt uncomfortable being held by him.
A big man's body is so hard that his bones and muscles are tingling.
How can Yun Jin be hugged comfortably?
Qin Ye hugged Gu Jinyao for five minutes before letting go.
Gu Jinyao changed his clothes and went to the kitchen to wash his hands and cook.
More than half an hour later.
He brought out three dishes and one soup.
Shredded pork with green pepper, braised red prawns, stir-fried fresh diced scallops, and beef meatball soup.
Placed on the dining table, it is full of color, flavor and food, which will make people's mouths move.
Gu Jinyao picked up his chopsticks and called Qin Ye: "Come to eat, I didn't make the spicy wild rabbit head you like to eat. If you want to come next time, let me know in advance."
Qin Ye hummed, walked to the dining table, took the chopsticks, and sat down.
Gu Jinyao took out an antique wine bottle from the wine cabinet, opened it, poured a glass for Qin Ye, and poured a glass for himself.
Qin Ye picked up the wine glass, brought it to his lips and took a sip.
The aroma of white wine hits your nostrils, very rich.
It has a soft entrance, a mellow taste, without the punch of strong liquor, and a long-lasting aftertaste.
He doesn't like drinking liquor, but this wine tastes pretty good.
Gu Jinyao reminded: "Drink slowly, this wine is puree wine, it has been stored for a hundred or two hundred years."
Qin Ye glanced at him and picked up some vegetables to eat.
The two of them had their own thoughts and ate and drank in silence.
Before I knew it, I finished the bottle.
After drinking and eating, Qin Ye stood up, put away the dishes and chopsticks, and went to the kitchen.
Unexpectedly, before I even took a step, my legs began to feel weak.
Gu Jinyao, with quick eyes and quick hands, leaned forward, firmly caught the bowls, chopsticks and plate in his hand, put them on the dining table, and said angrily: "Drink too much again?"
Qin Ye raised his hand to his forehead, "I feel dizzy and my legs are weak. This wine has more stamina than red wine."
Gu Jinyao said disgustedly: "If you can't drink, don't drink. The more cowardly you are, the more you have to show off and get drunk every time. I'm not your father, so I can't take care of you every time."
Qin Ye raised his eyelids and looked at him, "You have changed. You were so good to me before."
Gu Jinyao deliberately wanted to tease him, "I used to treat you as my lover, but not anymore."
Qin Ye had goosebumps all over his body, "I am your brother, my dear brother, please show some respect to me."
Gu Jinyao couldn't help but smile and helped him sit down on the sofa.
Qin Ye pressed his head and lay on the sofa.
Gu Jinyao said: "I have a girlfriend now. I can't keep you overnight. Yun Jin will think too much if she finds out."
Qin Ye hummed muffledly.
Gu Jinyao picked up his cell phone and called Gu Beixian, "Come to my house and pick up your brother. He is drunk."
"Okay, I'll be there in half an hour."
More than half an hour later.
Gu Beixian is here.
When he entered the room, he saw Qin Ye lying on the sofa, his brows slightly furrowed, his eyes closed, covered with a thin blanket, and exuding a strong aroma of wine.
Gu Beixian asked: "What's going on?"
Gu Jinyao said without emotion: "Knowing that I am your father's illegitimate son, he is in a complicated mood and drank too much."
Gu Beixian's face was calm.
As expected.
Gu Beixian leaned over, calmly helped Qin Ye up, and put his arm on his shoulders.
Turning his head, he saw Yun Jin's crystal photo on the TV cabinet.
Gu Beixian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "How are you and Yun Jin getting along?"
Gu Jinyao put one hand in his pocket and said, "I have decided to date Yun Jin. You can keep it in your heart."
Gu Beixian raised his chin slightly with a look of determination, "My heart has always been in my stomach. In fact, you had no intention of stealing Su Hua from me. Three years ago, when you returned to China and saw Su Hua and I entangled, If you just can't tell the difference, then you decide to let go of Su Hua. Am I right?"
Gu Jinyao's eyes darkened, "I can steal it now. If you don't believe it, just try it."
