Difficult round

Chapter 76

It was difficult to stuff small notes into balloons. Every time Tang Yan stuffed one, he had to scold him, but he held the pen with a smirk and continued to write the next one full of love.

He thought he would feel sorry for himself and couldn't help pleading for himself, but when he started writing, most of the memories he could think of were good memories, and the little things he thought he had forgotten long ago.

He didn't tell Tang Yan that it was actually not easy for him to write the note, because he took it too seriously and was afraid that he would make a typo or make it ugly, so he would keep his mind on every word he wrote. My back is sweaty.

These notes were all written last night. Shen Qi got up early this morning, put the box containing the notes at the security guard of Tang Yan's community, and asked Tang Yan to help continue to fill them.

He knew that tonight's marriage proposal would fail, and he had prepared for the worst that Gu Yan might turn around and leave, or get angry, but he didn't expect such a result.

"I have something tonight, let's make an appointment." This is the news that Shen Qi saw when he parked the car at the entrance of the restaurant, and Gu Yan sent it among the three of them.

This group was established by Gu Yan many years ago.At that time, he was still chasing Shen Qi, because he was afraid of embarrassment, coldness, and rejection, so he often sent messages in the group, and it seemed that he was talking to two friends, but in fact, everyone knew that Tang Yan was just a casual A tool man with an active atmosphere.

He asked in the group about breakfast, snacks, movie concerts, and once Tang Yan agreed, he had a reason to prepare a copy for Shen Qi.

Tang Yan went abroad after graduation, and the three of them often chat in the group, which is always very active.But since the two broke up, no one has sent messages in it.

Shen Qi took out the phone from his pocket, and read the message sent by Gu Yan again.

That's right, with such a big incident happening, how could Gu Yan think about having something to eat with them again.

It was at this time that Tang Yan called. The system's built-in mobile phone ringtone rang continuously for a long time in the quiet and empty private room, and finally stopped.

Immediately afterwards, several WeChat messages popped up on the screen, and it was obvious that it must have been sent by Tang Yan without looking at it.He must have also seen the news in the group and came to ask about the situation.

Shen Qi stood in the middle of the box, turned around in a circle, looked at the balloons and flowers again, then walked over, grabbed the closest balloon to him, and squeezed it hard.

Then came the second one, and the third one... He grabbed the balloons one by one and popped them one by one. For a moment, in the quiet and somewhat overly private room, there was only the sound of popping balloons popping.

Every time a small note fell to the ground with the burst balloon, Shen Xi's heart shattered into pieces.

He couldn't feel the pain anymore, and after pinching it, his palms became numb, his heart also became numb, and he was in a daze.

The restaurant waiter hesitated at the door for a long time, wanting to come in and ask a question, but stopped again.

Just now, seeing Mr. Shen running over alone in a daze, she already had a premonition that tonight's birthday party might not be able to be held.

Shen Qi remembered that it was he who took the initiative to walk up to the waiter in the end, smiled at her, and said silently: "Cake, now."

He still couldn't make a sound, but fortunately, these four words were not complicated, he only said it once and the waiter understood it. "Okay, wait a moment!"

The things were prepared a long time ago, and the waiter came back with the cake in a short time: "Sir, your cake, candles...do you want to order now?"

Shen Qi mouthed: "Okay, thank you."

His eyes were covered with bloodshot eyes, and he looked embarrassed and haggard. He was not in good condition. The waiter was afraid that something might happen to him in the store, so he asked after lighting the candles, "Sir, are you okay?"

Shen Qi shook his head, and made a gesture of facing her with his palm facing outward: "You should be busy, thank you."

When the door of the box was closed, Shen Xi walked over and closed the two curtains, and made a wish to the burning candle: "Gu Yan, be safe, be healthy, and be happy."

After making his wish, he moved a chair and sat by the window, holding the cake and eating it with a small silver spoon.

The cake was very sweet, but it was bitter in his mouth. At the end of the meal, he even started to retch.But there was still a sigh of relief in my heart, and while retching, I still stuffed cakes into my mouth spoonful by spoonful.

After the cake was finished, Shen Qi walked slowly to the side of the tea cabinet, and took out a beautifully wrapped gift box from the drawer of the cabinet.

Then he sat on the ground, bit by bit, slowly opened the bow on the box, and bit by bit tore off the wrapping paper, revealing a black jewelry box inside.

Inside is a red string bracelet with a small gold safety clasp in the middle of the red string.Shen Qi held it in his hand, touched it very carefully, then raised his left hand, with an identical red string on his wrist.

Regarding the birthday gift, he actually thought about many, many kinds, and also thought about whether to buy a ring. After all, this time it was not only for Gu Yan's birthday, but he also had to propose.

But in the end I chose this red string bracelet.The ring Gu Yan has already designed and ordered, he likes it very much, he doesn't need to buy a new pair, he is waiting for the day when Gu Yan can put the ring on his finger with his own hands.

And it's the same if you don't give a ring and give a red string. The shape of this gold safety buckle is very similar to a ring. He selfishly hopes that while protecting Gu Yan's safety, he can also surround people and belong to him alone.

He took the red rope and went to the most famous temple in the city to consecrate it.

But... Shen Qi smiled, put the red string by his mouth and kissed it lightly...

But this red rope is destined not to be sent out.

When did he leave the restaurant and how did he get home, Shen Xi was so confused that he didn't know anything.

It wasn't until he stood at the entrance of the corridor and was blown by the biting cold wind for several minutes that he finally woke up. Looking at his phone, it was already 1:36 in the morning.

Staring at the ceiling for too long, his vision had already started to become blurred, his eyes felt dry and uncomfortable, Shen Xi pulled the quilt over his head, and the next second, tears fell silently again.

He didn't know that he could cry like this before, the tears seemed to flow endlessly, cowardly and pathetic.

What's even more tragic is that at this moment, apart from hiding and crying, he doesn't know what else he can do and how he can protect Gu Yan.

He was so useless, he always hid behind Gu Yan, and when the other party needed him, he was useless and helpless.

"Wow. Woof woof."

Mangosteen slept in the kennel near the end of the bed, probably keenly aware of the distress of the owner, crawled out of the kennel, ran to the edge of the bed with short legs, straightened up and lay down on the edge of the bed, whimpering. Arch Shen Qi's face and hands.

The wet nose rubbed back and forth, comforting the sad owner in his own way.

"Mangosteen, I was, I was going to propose to your eldest father tonight...but, but..." I couldn't say the rest of the words.

"Woo... woof woof..."

Before 06:30 the next day, Gu Yan was still asleep when he was woken up by successive knocks on the door.

It was already late in the night when he fell asleep last night, and he tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep slowly. At this moment, his clear dream was disturbed, and he was really not in a good mood.

After seeing a person and a dog standing outside the door through the cat's eyes, the mood became even worse.

"What's the matter?" I didn't want to pay attention to it at first, but when I looked at the puppy in my arms, I was worried that there was something wrong with the puppy again. After hesitating for a moment, I opened the door with annoyance, and said with a frown, " What happened to the puppy?"

The door is open, but others are blocking the door, which is an obvious unwelcome gesture.

Shen Qi didn't seem to understand what he meant at all, and bent down to put the mangosteen on the ground.

When the puppy saw Papa Gu, whom he missed so much, he immediately showed his housekeeping skills of being coquettish and cute, and rolled around at Gu Yan's feet begging for attention.Later, he fell in love with Gu Yan's slippers, and lay down on them, biting and gnawing.

As soon as Gu Yan lifted his foot, it hugged Gu Yan's ankle. Anyway, he refused to get off his feet, and his foot dripped down.

Judging by this spirit, it doesn't look like there will be any problems at all.

Gu Yan frowned and looked at the people outside the door.

Shen Qi was also looking at him.

Of course nothing happened to the puppy, Shen Qi took it out of the kennel just before going out, just to use it as a guide. ——I was afraid that Gu Yan would not open the door for him, but after seeing the mangosteen, maybe he would soften his heart and let the two of them in.

Facts have proved that this trick is very effective. Gu Yan asked about the situation of the puppy, and he opened the door for the sake of mangosteen.

"Wow, woof, woof!" Mangosteen finally had enough of staying on Gu Yan's feet, and began to explore a new territory, smelling here and there, and turning around the corner after a while, disappearing.Only the sound of Shihasha sticking out his tongue could be heard.

"Can I go in?" Shen Qi asked.

Even the dogs have entered, so how can the owner not be allowed in?

Gu Yan felt that his act of opening the door just now was a mistake, but he opened it, and it was too late to regret it.And he can probably guess why this person came to the door early in the morning.

That being the case, let's talk about it.

So he stepped aside and let people in: "Come in."
