Chapter 59: Ferry me (for a lifetime)

Chapter 59:
Gu Nian wanted to rush up to cover Lin Nantian's mouth, but it was too late. Lin Nantian, who was resting, finished the conversation in a second or two.
According to Luo Xiu's position at the moment, he should hear clearly without falling a word.
Gu Nian didn't give up and turned around stiffly.
Luo Xiu seemed to regain his senses, and slightly helped the silver-framed glasses. He smiled gently at Gu Nian and turned to the kitchen.
Gu Nian: "..."
She is going to kill Lin Nantian now, don't stop her.
In these few seconds of Gu Nian's stagnation, Lin Nantian finally found that the "little star guarded" in her mouth had just passed by them.
Lin Nantian was silent for a few seconds, cleared his throat, and made a mosquito noise: "Don't say anything else, um, good psychological quality, quite dedicated."
"Respect your karma."
Gu Nian couldn't help grinding her teeth even if she was a fairy.
Lin Nantian's eyes widened in surprise: "You scold me? You actually did it for a little Ming who was keeping him!"
Gu Nian took it up without hesitation before she committed another oral trade.
After stabilizing Lin Nantian and leaving her no room to speak, Gu Nian turned back and made sure that Luo Xiu hadn't come out of the kitchen.
She turned back and lowered her voice: "You are stupid, he is Luo Xiu!"
"Hmm?" Lin Nantian showed blank eyes, obviously asking "Which Luo Xiu?"
"..."
Gu Nian didn't speak, her face blank and expressionless.
There was a stalemate for ten seconds.
Lin Nantian suddenly opened his eyes wide: "?!"
Gu Nian held the corner of her mouth and showed a chilly smile: "Yes, it's the Luo Xiu you finally remembered now."
Lin Nantian stared blankly and turned his head.
Gu Nian: "Didn't I tell you that he terminated the contract with the previous company. The company may have driven him out of the artist's apartment, and then he has not found a new rental house, so he is temporarily renting here."
Lin Nantian returned to his senses, raised his hand and pulled down Gu Nian's hand, "You, you, you, are you finally realizing your dream and bringing your son into your account book?"
"..."
Gu Nian paused.
Hearing her son, a name she didn't seem to use for a long time, she felt a little guilty inexplicably.
At this time, Lin Nantian finally smoothed out the cause and effect from when she entered the door to the moment she was almost wiped out. She clasped her hands together in a row: "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I really didn't think of the name Luo Xiu. I don't follow the stars or pay attention to the entertainment industry. I don’t even watch variety shows, you know. I’ve misunderstood, I’m really sorry."
"Okay." Gu Nian pulled her hand down angrily and muttered in a low voice, "What's the use of apologizing to me? Come in."
"Okk."
Lin Nantian guiltily lifted the big bag he had brought, and walked around in front of the hollow screen in front of the hallway.
When Gu Nian accompanied Lin Nantian to put the bag in the living room, he caught up with Luo Xiu and came out of the kitchen with a white dinner plate.
Gu Nian resisted the embarrassment just now and stepped forward and asked, "Is there anything else I can take?"
"This is the last one. After you wash your hands, you can come over for dinner."
"Then... hard work, Chef Luo."
Luo Xiu smiled lightly: "It's an honor to serve the birthday star."
In front of the big background board of Lin Nantian behind, Luo Xiu didn't mention a word about the talent before, let alone take the opportunity to tease.
The embarrassment of Gu Nian and Lin Nantian was relieved a lot, and Gu Nian looked at Luo Xiu gratefully.
"Ah, yes," Luo Xiu remembered something, and stopped and turned back. "Can you do me a favor?"
Gu Nian asked immediately, "What's the matter?"
Luo Xiu gestured to the dinner plate in his hand and smiled helplessly: "It's not easy for me to untie the apron tether. And I just tried it in the kitchen, and it seems that I accidentally tied the knot."
Gu Nianran: "I'm coming."
After Luo Xiu came back in the evening, he washed his hands and went into the kitchen. The white shirt and suit and trousers on him were not changed. The belt was tied with a lean waist, while the gray apron was tied around the waist line and tied behind him.
Gu Nian approached the past and lowered his head to solve.
Stalemate for a few seconds.
Gu Nian:...It's indeed a dead knot, it's pretty tight.
Lin Nantian stood blankly in the living room.
A few meters away, two figures, one tall and one short, were almost close to each other. The little girl standing at the back had a sullen face, struggling with the knot in her hand seriously, unaware that she and the person in front of her were already reliable. How close and close.
Not to mention the opposite sex, even if they are of the same sex, Lin Nantian has known Gu Nian for so many years, and has never seen Gu Nian be so unguarded.
And the one being approached...
Lin Nantian moved his eyes subconsciously, and then fell into a pair of brown eyes.
She seemed to be aware that she was observing them, the man nodded slightly at her, with a gentle smile between his eyebrows, but it made Lin Nan Tianpin feel a little alienated.
But that bit of estrangement disappeared in an instant when he looked down at the shadow that he and the people behind him cast intimately overlapping on the ground.
Lin Nantian turned to an inexplicable subtle feeling in his heart.
Even if he doesn't chase stars at all, Lin Nantian admits that the little star in front of him named Luo Xiu is indeed, as Gu Nian said at the beginning, he was born with a star face that could not spot any flaws.
With wide shoulders, narrow waist and long legs, the figure is also the David template described by Gu Nian. But such a person has been doing the 180-line unknown for 2 years?
Moreover, why does she always feel that this person is a bit familiar, she seems to... where did she meet?
When Lin Nantian felt more and more weird, Gu Nian over there finally ended her struggle with her apron.
"Okay!" Gu Nian breathed a sigh of relief and stood up, "I'll tie it for you next time. It's too difficult for you to tie it yourself."
"it is good."
Luo Xiu responded gently.
When the man walked to the restaurant with the dinner plate, Lin Nantian finally recovered, walked quickly to Gu Nian's side, and tugged at the corner of her clothes: "What's your situation?"
"What's the situation?" Gu Nian looked back blankly.
"You and your baby goose! How do you get along like a couple's daily life!"
Gu Nian choked again by this name, and turned back in a low voice: "Don't call it that... just in case you let him hear it."
Lin Nantian was silent.
The two looked at each other.
Lin Nantian: "You are not right."
Gu Nian: "?"
Lin Nantian: "Tell me honestly, have you already deteriorated your maternal love?"
Gu Nian: "..."
Lin Nantian: "..."
Gu Nian: "I don't have one."
Lin Nantian: "You swear."
Gu Nian: "Just send it."
Lin Nantian: "I swear that if you lied just now, you will make Luo Xiu's life unaffordable."
Gu Nian: "Don't!"
Gu Nian held Lin Nantian in a hurry, but did not let Lin Nantian finish the sentence.
Lin Nantian looked at her with complicated eyes.
Gu Niansan retracted his hand: "Don't always say such a vicious curse."
Lin Nantian: "Oh, woman."
Gu Nian pretended not to see it, "Well, I'm going to wash my hands, so hurry up, or the food should be cold."
"..."
Gu Nian was shocked when she returned to the table. She originally thought that even if Luo Xiu knew how to cook, he should be at an average level.
But this table...
"I didn't know that Miss Lin would come here before, so I only bought Western food ingredients," Luo Xiu looked at Lin Nantian who was sitting diagonally opposite, with a gentle voice, "Gu Nian is used to eating, but I don't understand Miss Lin's taste?"
Lin Nantian put down his hand towels and was amazed by the appearance of the western food in front of him.
Gu Nian pulled Lin Nantian's trousers under the table. Lin Nantian recovered and nodded quickly: "I'm not like Gu Nian being picky, no problem."
Gu Nian had a meal.
She secretly glanced at Lin Nantian, then turned to Luo Xiu who was sitting opposite her: "I am not picky, she lied to you."
Luo Xiu held a knife and fork with his eyes down, and smiled after hearing the words: "You didn't put baby carrots in your steak side dishes."
"...?"
Gu Nian looked down at his plate, and then at Lin Nantian's side. Sure enough, in the same large dinner plate and the brightly colored plate next to it, Gu Nian was missing the finger-length little carrot.
Gu Nian stayed for two seconds, then looked up: "How do you know that I don't eat carrots, I seem to have never told you?"
Luo Xiu raised his jaw and said with a smile: "In the cafeteria of the "You Demon" crew, you would wrinkle your nose to pick out all the carrots in the food, whether raw or cooked, and pile them aside with disgust."
"Ah, am I that obvious?"
Gu Nian was pierced as soon as he was not picky about eating. Blushing, he went to get a cup and drank to cover it.
Gu Nian's gesture of putting down the water glass reminded Luo Xiu. He took off the tablecloth spread on his lap and stood up: "I almost forgot to prepare the red wine for you. I will go to the kitchen to get it."
Gu Nian quickly turned around: "You can't drink with a bad stomach!"
Luo Xiu passed by her and seemed to rub the top of the girl's head naturally: "Don't worry, I only drink water. Today is your birthday, let your friend accompany you for a drink."
"Ah, that's fine."
Gu Nian was relieved and turned back.
Not long after, Luo Xiu returned to the table with a silk cloth holding the awake red wine, and picked out two upside down red wine glasses.
Before he crossed the bottle, Gu Nian got up and took it from him, and turned her head back with a serious expression: "I can't let you pour the wine anymore. You have been busy all night." Luo Xiu: "I'm fine."
"That won't work, I have something to do," Gu Nian gestured down the chair, "Sit back quickly."
Luo Xiu smiled softly and indulged: "Okay."
"..."
Lin Nantian sat beside him, as if he was in a corner forgotten by the world. She looked blankly at this and then at that, and her mood became more complicated.
She has a bad feeling that her best friend will be pryed away.
?
At first it was clearly said that it was just a cup.
Gu Nian faintly pours into the sofa, looking at the room in front of him and the cans of beer piled up on the coffee table in the living room, thinking like this with the last bit of reason.
"Gu Nian you... Your drinking has dropped too much, right?"
Lin Nantian didn't know when she slipped under the sofa, shaking the empty can in her hand, she curled her lips in disgust.
"Do you think I am you, so much free time every day..." The girl lying on the sofa closed her eyes, not knowing if she was muttering or talking back.
Lin Nantian pushed her: "Is it really bad?"
Gu Nian didn't move.
Lin Nantian put down the can unsatisfactorily, "You have become a dish, too dish."
"..."
Lin Nantian stood up on the sofa, bent down and squeezed the red cheeks of the the sofa: "Hey, Gu Nian, don't sleep here."
Gu Nian still didn't move, and fell asleep completely.
Lin Nantian lowered his head and sighed dejectedly: "If you say it, you will fall. If you have the ability, you should go to the room before sleeping. A woman without alcohol."
"..."
Despite complaining, Lin Nantian bent down to hold Gu Nian on the sofa, and tried to lift it upstairs.
When Luo Xiu returned to the restaurant after cleaning up the last kitchen waste, he saw Lin Nantian supporting Gu Nian and shaking up from the sofa.
Luo Xiu turned and walked over.
"give it to me."
"…what?"
Lin Nantian only had time to hear the voice above her head, and Gu Nian's arm, which she had been holding on her shoulder, was suddenly moved away and followed her lightly.
Lin Nantian looked up blankly, and saw the man in front of him bend over, and then hugged the little girl who was withered.
Without saying a word, he turned and walked up the stairs.
Lin Nantian stayed on the spot for several seconds, until the back figure was about to go upstairs, she suddenly recovered, and hurriedly followed up: "Wait...wait, I will send her up too!"
"..."
He sent Gu Nian back to the bedroom, Luo Xiu closed the door and came out. Lin Nantian carefully checked the door lock, and then turned back with a dizzy head.
Luo Xiu asked quietly, "Ms. Lin will rest here tonight, or should I find someone to send you off?"
"No," Lin Nantian lowered his head and waved his hand. "I told my driver that they should and should arrive, and I can go out."
"Okay, I'll send Miss Lin downstairs."
"Thank you……"
Gu Nian was completely drunk, and Lin Nantian was not much better. On the way out from the villa area, it is almost an S-shaped route.
Luo Xiu followed her four or five meters apart to avoid any accidents.
Waiting outside the villa area, the driver who seemed to have been waiting for a long time in front of the car parked by the road greeted him: "Miss Lin? Why do you drink so badly?"
Luo Xiu worried about staying at home alone when he was drunk. He confirmed that Lin Nantian and the driver knew each other well. He said goodbye to leave: "Miss Lin walks slowly, I won't send it anymore."
"wait wait wait."
Lin Nantian held down the opened car door, and didn't get in. She tilted her head in a daze, trying to look at Luo Xiu with her eyes open.
The silhouette of the man was thin, standing in the dark, his eyes were colder than moonlight, but his voice seemed to be gentle: "Is there anything wrong with Miss Lin?"
Lin Nantian couldn't tell, and shaking his head was useless, "You tell the truth...Are you caring about us, have any plans?"
Luo Xiu was unmoved.
Lin Nantian said something loudly: "Don't think that others can't see it. It's so obvious that blind people can't see it. Gu Nian she is...a fan of the authorities..."
"Miss Lin finished?"
The low and cold voice cut off Lin Nantian's words.
"Huh?" Lin Nantian, who was holding the door, frowned and turned her head. She stared at Luo Xiu for a few seconds, "I just feel you, you don't look so kind... You are actually pretending to be, Gu Nianhui I was fooled by you..."
"Miss Lin had better figure out a problem."
"what?"
Luo Xiu turned sideways, walked back a few steps, and stopped in front of Lin Nantian.
The gentle smile on his face didn't know when it disappeared. Holding the car door with one hand, Luo Xiu leaned slightly, his brown eyes skimmed from the fakes, as cold as ice
"You can detect but she can't, not because she is stupid."
"Then, why is that?"
"Because I don't care how you feel."
"..."
Lin Nantian froze.
After he recovered, Lin Nantian was angry and annoyed: "Who do you think, do you think you are, how long have you known Gu Nian, why are you talking to me like this?"
Luo Xiu smiled lightly, but his eyes were cold: "Why can't I."
"You are not afraid of me telling Gu Nian"
"better not."
"Are you scared?"
"Yes, I'm afraid." Luo Xiu paused and smiled softly. "She doesn't have many friends, and losing one will make me sad. I'm afraid she will be sad."
"...!"
Lin Nan's weather is going to explode.
She gritted her teeth and glared at this person, but the figure in front of her left as soon as she finished speaking, not caring about her reaction after listening.
Especially the smile before leaving at the end, obviously seems gentle, but hides the harsh cold and alienation.
And this kind of smile made her feel more familiar than the almost completely gentle and harmless person in front of Gu Nian tonight.
But where are you familiar with...
Lin Nantian shook his head.
The back view in his sight was gone, and the driver came up to ask anxiously, but was prevaricated by her. Lin Nantian got into the car and watched the street lights dangle behind him, one after another.
She frowned tightly, looking for a face like memory in her mind. If she had ever seen it, then she couldn't be unimpressed.
It was probably that the alcohol was so irritating that Lin Nantian could not remember it.
The driver drove her downstairs and urged her softly when he opened the door: "Miss Lin, be careful, the stars and moon are dark tonight, the roads are dark, don't stumbling again."
"?"
A picture suddenly flashed through my mind.
The man in the chair by the window, his light gold shirt with light patterns, rolled up two or three points of slightly pleated cuffs, the gold chain lightly dangling under his glasses, was lined with a cold white complexion and a gentle but extremely cold smile.
The gauze curtain hanging behind him, Gu Nian's back shadow
Lin Nantian stopped, and suddenly looked up, "Yes, it's Xingyue Hotel! Gu Nian and Qiaoxi's western restaurant!"
The driver was at a loss: "Huh?"
Lin Nantian lowered his head: "No, Gu Nian clearly said that he is a poor 180-line restaurant. How could he go to that kind of restaurant? Unspoken rules?...That shouldn't be right. If his face is willing to be sneaked, it's impossible. Isn't it popular yet?"
The driver was even more at a loss: "Miss Lin, what are you talking about?"
"..."
Lin Nantian could not explain, "Where is my phone?"
"In the bag."
"give me!"
"Huh? Okay."
The driver handed the bag to Lin Nantian, and Lin Nantian rummaged through it and found out the phone. She wanted to dial, but remembered that Gu Nian might still be drunk and drowsy at the moment, so she changed it to information.
[At the end of May, you went to the Xingyue Hotel to have a blind date with Josie. At that time, the person you saw across the curtain seemed to be Luo Xiu! Why can he go to such a restaurant, are you sure he is really a 180 line? ]
After sending the message, Lin Nantian went upstairs and returned to his room. While she was washing her, she was still worrying about this matter. That Luo Xiu really didn't seem to be kind. How could Gu Nian feel such a gentle and kind person...
Before Lin Nantian finished thinking, she was shaken by her mobile phone next to the sink.
She quickly picked it up and looked at it, and the reply came from Gu Nian.
Gu Nian: [I know, that's his brother, not him]
Lin Nantian: [Brother? ]
Gu Nian: [Yes, he has a brother, but it’s not good to him, he was kicked out of the house, right]
Lin Nantian: [? Is it so miserable? ]
Gu Nian: [I'm angry when I mention it, I'm so sleepy, I continue to sleep]
Lin Nantian hesitated for several seconds, remembering what Luo Xiu had said before leaving, she sighed, and in the end she didn't say anything and sent a "good" word.
The other side didn't go back again, and probably fell asleep.
"Ugh."
Lin Nantian put the phone back and continued to wash and skin care.
At the same time, the villa area.
On the first floor, sofa.
"what are you doing?"
The sofa sank suddenly, and Luo Xiu rushed to take a warm breath next to him. A furry head crawled in from under his arm and curiously placed it on the mobile phone screen in his hand.
Luo Xiu lowered his eyes and smiled helplessly: "Really not going back upstairs to rest?"
"No, not sleepy." The little girl shook her head firmly.
Luo Xiu: "Do you bother people like this every time you get drunk?"
"Um..." The little girl thought about it seriously, "I drink well, I've never been drunk!"
Luo Xiu smiled and nodded her forehead: "Then who tossed me all night in the crew hotel last time? Who is it that is making trouble for me now?"
Gu Nian frowned, "It's not me."
The man laughed and looked down.
"It's really not me." Gu Nian looked serious.
"Okay," he smiled connivingly, "not you."
Gu Nian nodded with satisfaction.
After clicking for a while, his head was a little dizzy, and Gu Nian stopped and remembered the question just now. She rolled in his arms curiously: "What were you doing just now?"
Luo Xiu swiped his fingers a few times to delete the messages from the latest contact on the phone screen, but left the information with another contact.
Then he sighed and leaned over slightly.
The light burning breath seemed to kiss the girl's forehead, but it stopped in the end.
Luo Xiu's voice was muted: "I'm doing... a very despicable thing."
Gu Nian: "Huh?"
Luo Xiu closed his eyes and laughed at himself: "You will hate me in the future, Gu Nian."
Gu Nian moved: "Why?"
Luo Xiu did not explain, but sighed lightly, as if he was afraid of waking her up: "I don't want to be like this, but I'm used to it, and I can't change it."
"Get used to it, do you mean bad things?" Gu Nian repeated blankly.
"Ok."
"Why are you used to this?"
"Why..." Luo Xiu slowly picked her up and tightened his arms greedily. He held the girl in his arms and leaned on her shoulder with a smile and sigh, "Yes, why do you want to get used to this kind of thing."
"..."
The drunk girl stayed for two seconds, then suddenly raised her hand to hug him: "Don't cry."
Luo Xiu froze.
After a moment, he turned his head, raised his eyes slightly, and smiled dumbly: "I don't have one."
"You have," Gu Nian insisted, her arms tightened, "I heard it."
"I won't cry."
Gu Nian turned her head, "Why not? No one doesn't cry."
"Because crying is what children learn to call for help."
"Well?"
"I knew from a long time ago that no one would save me."
"..."
Luo Xiu endured countless times, and finally when the girl sat in his arms and turned back and looked up at him, he lowered his head and kissed her forehead uncontrollably.
Gu Nian had no illusion of being taken advantage of, holding his arm and raising his head, serious: "Nonsense. I will save you."
Luo Xiu lowered his eyes and smiled in a low voice: "Don't save me." Gu Nian was stunned: "Why?"
"I will be entangled," Luo Xiu lowered his eyes and closed his eyes against her forehead. "I will be entangled for a lifetime."
"?" Gu Nian turned back, with a serious expression on her drunk cheeks: "Then I will save my life."
Luo Xiu was startled and looked at her with his eyes open.
"lifetime?"
"Hmm!" The girl raised her head proudly, "forever!"
