He didn't seem to expect that she would come out at this time. After being stunned for a long time, she turned and went to the living room.
Then the footsteps caught up with him.
Mu Ning poured the water and was about to drink it when a tall figure hugged her from behind.
His hot chest pressed against her back, and a pair of strong arms wrapped around her waist.
Mu Ning trembled, picked up the water glass and took a sip.
She put down the water glass, as if knowing that she would break free in the next second, Gu Zhiyin tightened his arms.
Mu Ning stood quietly for a while and said softly: "I'm going to bed."
Gu Zhiyin took a deep breath in her ear and whispered, "I want to drink water too."
Mu Ning paused, picked up the water glass and handed it to him, but Gu Zhiyin lowered his head.
Mu Ning realized that he wanted her to feed him.
She didn't move, "Forget it if you don't drink."
The next second, her hand and the cup were wrapped together by Gu Zhiyin's warm hands, pulling her and feeding her to his mouth. He lowered his head and took a sip.
The sound of swallowing was very clear in her ears. In this dark and silent night, her mouth went dry. Mu Ning couldn't help but raise her head and saw his sexy Adam's apple rolling.
Gu Zhiyin put down the cup, picked her up and walked into the bedroom.
Mu Ning was put on the bed by him, he leaned over to kiss her, kicked off his shoes and wanted to get on the bed, Mu Ning stretched out her hand to press against his chest.
She turned her face away and said in an indifferent voice, "I'm going to sleep."
"You go out."
Mu Ning obviously felt that his body stiffened instantly.
"good."
He kissed Mu Ning on the forehead, "Good night."
Then he tucked Mu Ning into bed, turned around and went out.
The next day, Mu Ning packed up and planned to go out, but found that Gu Zhiyin did not go to work.
He happened to be on the balcony after answering the phone and came in. He still had a small half of a cigarette in his hand, and he looked like he was about to pinch it.
Mu Ning withdrew his gaze and lowered his head to put on his shoes.
A faint voice said, "Where are you going?"
Mu Ning held onto the wall and hooked his heels, "Go out for a walk."
A shadow fell, and the man walked quickly to her side, "Do you want me to accompany you?"
She kicked the toe of her shoe and said, "No need."
"Come back at noon?"
She raised her head and looked at him indifferently, "It depends on the situation."
In the end, Gu Zhiyin stood at the door and watched her go out.
Mu Ning went to the supermarket alone, watched a movie alone, and came out after the movie. At 12:30, she found a restaurant with an elegant environment nearby, ordered a set meal for one person, and then took a photo and posted it on her WeChat Moments. .
"Time spent alone will become very slow, but it is very enjoyable."
After Mu Ning finished her lunch, it was only half past one when she got on the No. 108 city bus.
This bus route spans three cities, from Beijing to the next door, Xicheng. At this point, she is the only one on the bus.
Mu Ning sat by the window, in the back row, put on her headphones, and the bright afternoon sun fell on her fair face.
She closed her eyes in enjoyment.
Suddenly, a shadow covered her, blocking the sunlight on her eyelids.
Mu Ning opened her eyes and saw a tall man with long legs standing next to her.
She was startled, her pupils trembling slightly.
The man looked at her, stepped back with his long legs, and sat down behind her.
Mu Ning couldn't help but straighten his back.
The man's breath was very aggressive and enveloped her, and she even smelled the faint scent of perfume on him.
The car started, the wind blew, and it finally felt much better.
Mu Ning turned to look out the window.
She wore her hair in a lazy bun today, clamped behind her head with a brown clip. The broken hair on her temples was blown by the wind, and was fluffy in the sun. Her ears were also lightly pink, and you could see the tiny blood vessels inside.
All of this was seen by the man behind her.
They were the only ones on this train.
Time seems to go very slowly, very slowly.
The train swayed and took them through most of the capital.
Sunshine and breeze accompanied us all the way.
Later, a few college students went to school, and they looked back frequently, not knowing whether they were looking at Mu Ning or the man behind her. They gathered together and whispered while watching.
Maybe he was praising her for her beauty.
Maybe he was praising him for being handsome.
Maybe it was a pity that they didn't sit together.
Maybe they were guessing that they might have been a couple.
Who knows.
…
As the number of people gradually increased, Mu Ning got off the bus at Longcheng Station.
The man got out of the car with her.
On the streets of Longcheng, they were one behind the other, with a difference of only three meters.
She walked in front and he followed behind.
Whatever Mu Ning did, he would do the same.
Finally, Mu Ning stopped under a sign and turned his head.
Looking at the man a few steps away.
Mu Ning asked, "Is it interesting?"
Gu Zhiyin looked at her quietly, "Where are you going?"
"I asked you if it would be interesting to follow you like this."
His dark eyes were deep and his voice was deep, "I want to guard you."
Mu Ning looked indifferent, "Why are you guarding me."
He lowered his eyes, "Because I think... you might not go home tonight."
He didn't go to the company today, originally he wanted to stay at home with her.
The moment Mu Ning went out, Gu Zhiyin's heart felt like it was being torn away. He stayed alone in the apartment, very anxious and restless, always feeling that she wanted to leave him.
The feeling was so torturous that he had to look at her to calm his heart.
…
Mu Ning pursed her lips. She really had no plans to go home tonight.
She brought a change of laundry pants in her backpack.
Seeing that she was silent, Gu Zhiyin took two steps forward and clasped her wrist, "Don't run around, and don't even think about leaving me."
Mu Ning's wrist hurt a little from his grip, and she frowned, "You're overthinking, I'm just here to relax."
She was almost depressed at home.
She wanted to come out and get some fresh air.
Gu Zhiyin: "Is there no place in the capital for you to relax?"
"It doesn't matter where I go."
She just doesn't have a purpose, she just doesn't care where she goes.
Mu Ning looked at him indifferently, "Go back."
Gu Zhiyin's eyes tightened, "When will you go home?"
"When I want to go back."
Mu Ning struggled to break free from his hand, "Stop following me, I want to be alone."
Gu Zhiyin's eyebrows twitched and he stood there, watching her quietly as she walked away until she disappeared into the vast sea of people.
…
Mu Ning found a hotel to stay at, and went to a beachside tavern in the evening, ordered a cocktail, and listened to a foreign band playing and singing on the stage.
It was a lyrical ballad, and she couldn't help crying. Fortunately, the light in the pub was dark and no one could see it.
She was sitting alone at the bar, with many men staring at her, but no one dared to come up and strike up a conversation.
Mu Ning was not a good drinker. After drinking the whole glass of wine, her head felt dizzy. She got up and left.
She walked along the coastline to the hotel, the sea breeze blowing on her wet face, tears rolling into her mouth, full of salty taste.
She arrived at the hotel and wandered into the revolving door.
Outside the hotel door, a tall shadow stood under the dim streetlight.
Gu Zhiyin smelled of tobacco and alcohol from the tavern, but it was blown away by the sea breeze. The seaside was humid at night, and the shirt on his body was slightly damp from the walk.
That girl couldn't tell north from south when she was drunk, and almost fell down several times on the road.
Gu Zhiyin sighed lightly, still worried, and strode into the revolving door.
She lives on the seventh floor.
Taking an elevator with her would definitely not work.
The hotel elevator was being repaired today and only one elevator was running.
There were many people waiting for the elevator, and Mu Ning was still waiting.
Gu Zhiyin pushed open the fire door, looked at the long stairs, and climbed up with long legs.
When we reached the seventh floor, Mu Ning hadn't come up yet.
Gu Zhiyin leaned against the wall, took two deep breaths, bent down and rubbed his sore right leg. After waiting for a while, the elevator door opened and Mu Ning came out with unsteady steps.
Staggering, Gu Zhiyin's eyes were deep and he wanted to go up to help him, but he forcibly held back.
Watching her swiping the card to enter, his heart dropped to the ground. He straightened up and came out from behind the corner. As soon as he took a step, his legs hurt so much that he almost lost his balance.
He continued to lean against the wall, took out his mobile phone, and said expressionlessly: "Come and pick me up."
Song Heng opened a room for Gu Zhiyin in the hotel, helped Gu Zhiyin to the room, and called a doctor to come.
The doctor frowned, "Mr. Gu, please walk less. Your knees are swollen. It's best not to go to the ground, otherwise I'm afraid that your legs..."
He didn't quite hear what the doctor said. He applied medicine to him and prescribed some painkillers. Song Heng sent the doctor out.
Gu Zhiyin lay on the bed and took out her phone to see if she had posted any new friends.
Nothing new, just the same one from noon.
【Time alone will become very slow, but it is very enjoyable. 】
Gu Zhiyin thought about it. The movie this morning was boring, and the restaurant at noon was also terrible.
Why does she enjoy it?
Because she wasn't happy being with him and she would be more comfortable alone?
She was running away from him.
Avoiding him.
She wants to... separate?
Gu Zhiyin's face turned pale, he clicked on Mu Ning's dialog box and entered a string of text.
After thinking about it, I deleted it.
Turning off the phone and throwing it aside, he took out a cigarette from his pocket distractedly, lit one, and watched the smoke rising slowly.
Compared with his legs, the pain from his heart made him more uncomfortable.
It's been a tough night.
