"Then are you afraid? Afraid of the eyes of others? " Zhang Heng suddenly stopped the car and parked it in the middle of the night.
"…" Gu Yue was still rational as she advised, "Drive the car away first, then I'll tell you."
Zhang Heng thought about it and felt that what he said made sense. Even though it was late at night and there weren't many cars passing by, and there weren't any road cameras around, he still obediently drove to a place where he could park his car.
"Can you tell me now?"
"..." "Sure."
Zhang Heng grabbed Gu Ke's shoulder. "Why are you afraid? Is it because I can't give you a sense of security? "
"No." Gu Ke shook his head in denial.
Zhang Heng's eyes were already a little red. Why is that?
Seven years ago, I met you, I like you, I clearly realized, I like you for the first time, no matter if you are a boy or a girl. I have no doubts about this love. I held on, held on, until I secretly recruited you to be my little assistant.
He had experienced so much along the way.
Don't you know what I mean?
My heart will not be cut off by the slightest gossip or comment. Because I love you, deeply.
What about you?
"..." "Gu Yu, I dare to bring you back to the Zhang Family and ask for your grandfather's permission. This means that I am not afraid of these rumors."
Gu Ke nodded his head. Then, he paused for a few seconds with a frown as he looked up at the red-eyed Zhang Heng: "I know. I am not afraid of gossip against me. I am afraid of gossip against you. You're the president and you need to be aware of the public image. I don't want to see you being pointed out like that behind your back. "
Zhang Heng embraced Gu Yue and hugged him tightly. "I know you are worried about me, worried about me. "But I don't care, on the contrary, the person I fear the most is you."
"Thank you."
"Promise me. If you have anything to say, just say it without worry." "I will always listen by your side."
"Well, I know. "I'm sorry, but Chinese people have a habit of being hypocritical." "
"It doesn't matter."
Perhaps he had liked it for a long time, but the other party had already grasped his temper. Even if he had slowly discovered his feelings at work seven years later, who knew if he had actually fallen in love with this big boy who looked like he would never grow up seven years ago? Their intentions were to help each other understand each other better.
Then Zhang Heng should think about proposing marriage. But what if Gu Ke didn't like proposing marriage? After all, marriage proposals are formalistic. As long as their hearts were truly together, what was there to be afraid of? They really wanted to be together with each other. So why fear a union without material and formal guarantees?
However, in this aspect, he still had to ask his elder sister for Gu Li's opinion. After all, his elder sister was the one who was the most accurate.
"Big Sister Gu Li, do you think I need to make a proposal or something?"
"Why do you think that?"
"Because... Last time, I said, 'Let's get married.' He changed the subject, although I don't know if he did it on purpose … "
"I think proposing marriage is unnecessary. Why don't you just have a grand wedding as a surprise? It would be easier for Gu Zhen to follow your lead."
"Shouldn't the wedding have been prepared by the two of them together?"
Gu Li nodded his head to show that she didn't deny it. "But, we must be the kind of people who only care about being simple. You've been paying attention to him since the second day of your junior year, so you should know, right? "
Zhang Heng thought for a moment about Gu Ke's student era, it really was like this. The pen in his hand, which he had used to finish his homework in the pavilion since he was first seen in his second year of junior high, had ever since obediently been placed in his pen bag. He followed him all the way to the third day of the first day.
Once, Zhang Heng opened Gu Qishao's pen bag to see what was inside. It was found that the pen bag had been in use since the fourth grade. Why? This was because the bag contained words that Gu Li had embroidered for Gu Qishao — "Yucai Elementary School Class 1: Gu Qishao".
You said... Isn't it very six?
Then, he observed the pen in the pen bag, the same neutral pen color, and the combined set of red, black, and blue pen cores.
"Why don't you take another red pen holder and blue pen holder?"
"I'll put it on when it's time to use it."
"How troublesome …"
Zhang Heng mumbled. He reached out to put the red pen holder into the cover that he had just used up. He wanted to give it to Gu Shenwei to use, but he was stopped by Gu Qishao.
"There's basically nothing wrong with my homework, so I don't need to revise it."
"…" Zhang Heng stared at Gu Ke with his eyes wide open, not knowing what to say. Gu Yue's words were like knives stabbing into one another. It was too painful.
"Then fill in the blue pen holder!"
"No need. A while ago, the language teacher annotated my class notes with suggestions for highlights in colors other than black. I've just bought a blue pen holder, and now that I've taken the class notes, I don't need to accept them anymore, so I don't need to use them anymore. "
"…" Zhang Heng was left speechless. Although he had picked up Gu Ke's notebook and flipped through it, it was filled with dense black text. It was as if thousands of spiders were crawling on Gu Ke's textbook, causing his scalp to tingle. Indeed, occasionally the black words would be mixed with a few blue words that were very beautiful to look at.
However, Gu Ke pursued minimalism. This point was absolutely impossible to get the girls in the class who liked to use the seven-colored pen holder and the glowing yellow and blue red brushes to agree with him.
"..." "Haha, it's good that you like it."
From then on, Zhang Hengquan did not force to be accurate, but he would occasionally pick up a few colorful brushes from the stationery store across the street from the school and bring them back to him.
All the girls in the stationery shop stared at Zhang Heng, thinking, so there are still boys who like to make colorful notes with colored pen pencils, what a surprise. Zhang was even more uncomfortable when he met his classmates.
"Wow, I didn't expect that that scumbag Zhang Heng would unexpectedly like to make colorful notes as well …"
"…"
Returning back to the school, Zhang Heng handed over the pen holder that Gu Shiyou had bought. "Here."
"..." "Huh?"
"Stop asking, here." Zhang Heng originally did not want to say much, but once he thought about how it would be a waste if Gu Zhen decided to let him go, he lied, "Aren't you and I from the same study group? Your notebook is all black. I see my head hurts... In the future, you can use a colored pen to highlight the difficult points and circles, or draw a horizontal line, making it easier for me to look at it. "
"…" Gu Yin thought about it for a moment, and felt that Zhang Heng was doing this for his own good, so it was only logical that he would accept these brushes. In the future, if Zhang Heng wanted to look at any kind of notes, he could show him whatever it was, "Hmm, but I think that what's most important for you is your ability to comprehend."
"..." It's none of your business! "
Yes, Zhang Heng was not lacking in concentration. When he looked at the notes and the accurate photos, he was more serious than anyone else. He was just a little stupid.
"Puchi." Zhang Heng recalled the past and unconsciously found it a little funny. He covered his mouth to suppress his laughter, but he was still unable to stop himself from laughing out loud.
"What's wrong?"
"Ha …"
Gu Li shook her head helplessly and looked at Zhang Heng as if he were looking at a fool, "Ai …" You have been so silly, so naive, ever since you were a child. "
"Big Sister Gu Li, thank you. I think I know what I should do. You're right."
"Then go ahead and do it. If you need help, just call me elder sister."
Zhang Heng seemed to remember something. "Big sister, why don't you stay at your brother-in-law's house?"
"Idiot, this is how I call it, this is where my parents live. Moreover, the two of us worked together to provide a house in the city, and it was already finished. We waited for the smell to dissipate before we moved in. "
"Ooo@@ Isn't that another red packet? "
"No need, no need, just come over for a meal."
The next few words were all about pleasantries. Gu Qishao had already fallen asleep in the room. Zhang Heng and Gu Li both said good night before falling asleep on Gu Qishao's bed.
Gu Gao's bed was still a one-man bed that he bought ten years ago. It was really difficult for two people to sleep on it. However, Gu Ke didn't say it out loud, and neither did Zhang Heng. No one said anything. "This bed is too crowded, it's not easy to sleep in."
As long as you are by my side, I will be the best catalyst for sleep.
"Zhang Heng got up early in the morning and hurried over to the company, in order to hide something from Gu Ke." "Hello, Wen Yinhong?"
"Ugh …" What's the matter with you? "It's not like you at all, it's so early in the morning …"
"I... I just wanted to say good morning to you. "
Wen Yihong said scornfully, "Forget it, don't lie to me. Just tell me what you want me to help you with. If I don't want to help you, consider it my loss. "
"…" This guy still wants to play a trick on me, and you want me to admit defeat?
Alright, for the sake of accuracy, I won't speak ill of him.
"It's my loss. I want you to do something for me. I'll tell you the details at noon, so it's not easy to tell you now … "In short, go to XXX restaurant and wait for me there at noon."
After that, Zhang Heng made several phone calls to different people. Similarly, he met with them around noon at XXXX restaurant.
Noon.
As usual, Gu Zhen asked Zhang Heng: "What do you want to eat? I'll go down and buy it for you. "
"No need, I'll go out and eat."
"Recently, my wallet has been a bit flat, so I ate some cheap ones."
Because for a long time, Zhang Heng and Gu Ke went out to eat only two AA's, this was a rule that was set down by Gu Ke. Before officially becoming husband and wife, the property relationship should be clearly defined.
Zhang Heng nodded symbolically as he picked up his phone and wallet and walked out of the room. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and turned around to Gu Ke, "If you want to go out to eat, then go by yourself. I don't need to buy food for me these few days."
"…"
What was going on? In the past, whenever they had lunch, either Gu Ke would go downstairs to the company's dining hall to get their food, or the two of them would gather around the office's small coffee table to enjoy their meal, or Zhang Heng would suddenly appear one day and bring Gu Ke out to the restaurant to eat. But today, it was very strange …
Zhang Heng did not want to eat with him in the office, nor did he want to eat with him outside.
Why?
Why?
Gu Ke couldn't figure it out.
The only thing that could be guessed at was: Zhang Heng … Was there something he was hiding from his?
Only this conjecture was true.
