"I'm sorry." Shi Li said subconsciously. Like Gu Ze, he seemed to be popular, but in fact he didn't have deep friendships with anyone.
Still have the old problem of not being good at communication.
The difference is that Gu Ze simply doesn't want to. When he is really needed, he is completely at ease.
Shi Li simply couldn't overcome the hurdle in her heart.
As long as he is talking to strangers, he will be a little nervous involuntarily, and his speaking speed will become very slow. Usually after finishing speaking, his mind will be blank, and he will not realize what he said.
Faced with this form of chatting up,
Shi Li didn't know how to deal with it.
"Sorry, I don't really want to... (Sorry, I don't really want to...)"
"I'm sorry. (Sorry)"
I can only keep apologizing and expressing my rejection.
The foreign boy didn't seem to see Shili's resistance at all, and kept saying very enthusiastically, "Are you shy?" he said, "Don't be embarrassed. You're really cute. I like your type. (Don't be embarrassed.) , you are really cute, I like your type.)"
He even tried to sit on the stone bench together.
There was only one palm length between us and Shi Li. This social distance was already very offensive to strangers, and this was despite Shi Li's clear expression of resistance.
He couldn't help but frown slightly.
"We're just strangers, sorry." Shi Li stood up from the stone bench holding her satchel, looked around, and prepared to run in the direction of Gu Ze.
"Wait, wait!" The boy stood up, stood in front of Shi Li, and looked him up and down with a particularly offensive look, "Are you gay, too?"
"I can see that. (I can tell.)"
"Do you have time tonight?? I can book a hotel. (Do you have time tonight? I can book a hotel.)"
Shi Li was stunned for a moment, and each English word came to him separately. Everyone can understand it, but he can't understand it when it is closed.
What do you have time for tonight? What hotel?
The foreign boy wanted to continue saying something, but the next second, a cold voice sounded from behind him, "He doesn't have time. (He doesn't have time.)"
Shi Li's eyes lit up, and he picked up his The yellow satchel trotted directly behind Gu Ze, nervously grasped the other person's arm, and whispered, "Brother, this person is weird." Someone came to support him, and he spoke much more forcefully.
He complained in front of his face, "I have rejected him many times, and he didn't seem to understand."
"You said you like me, I'm cute, you booked a hotel for the night, and you just sat next to me." Shi Li Hiding behind Gu Ze, he spoke in a low voice, and the air flow blew on the back of the young man's neck.
The more Gu Ze listened, the pressure on his body became lower and lower, because his eyes were extremely dark and his eyes were scary.
The foreign boy was stared at and couldn't help but swallowed his saliva. He made a "tsk" sound and babbled a few words.
"Cazzo di merda. (Damn)"
"Chi è questo idiota? (Who is this idiot)"
Shi Li listened carefully, Italian? The words were so unpleasant that he frowned slightly.
The foreign boy looked past Gu Ze and looked at Shi Li behind him, and said with an evil heart, "Hey, cutie, want to try with me?"
"I know you." Gu Ze suddenly said, "New student who just entered school, your tutor is a student under my tutor, maybe you want to try what it feels like to be kicked out not long after you join?" His tone was cold, without any emotion, but every word was full of threats, "This Classmate Bird, I would be happy to tell your father, who is still running a listed company in Italy, about what happened today."
Gu Ze went to a university where there were still more Chinese people.
Although this foreign boy could not speak Chinese fluently, he at least understood what the other party was saying. His expression was obviously surprised for a moment, and then turned into fear.
No matter who this young man was, knowing his situation so well, he didn't dare to carry out his ridiculous pick-up behavior anymore.
Then Gu Ze whispered in Italian,
"E io sono il suo ragazzo."
And, I am his boyfriend.
His voice was deep, his tone was slow, and his pronunciation was very standard. Because Shi Li couldn't understand it, he didn't make any attempt to hide it.
After hearing this, the foreign boy immediately looked a little embarrassed, smiled, said "Excuse me" in Chinese, turned around and left.
Gu Ze didn't notice at all.
Behind him, Shi Lizheng opened his eyes slightly and looked up at him blankly.
Without waiting for his reaction, Gu Ze said, "I sent him away, don't be afraid."
Shi Li said "um" to indicate that he understood.
Gu Ze, "I just couldn't leave. My mentor has always been like this." He said a lot, "Our family has invested in a promising laboratory under her, and we have gradually seen the results in the past six months. If the finished product can be popularized, the rate of return will be high."
Of course, without his introduction, this matter would not have happened.
The mentor has always been very kind to Gu Ze in private. If he tells what happened today, what happened just now The consequences for that person will never be easy.
As for the other party's father, Gu Ze only met him twice when he was discussing business in Europe on behalf of the Gu family, so he had some impressions of him.
Mr. Gu couldn't even remember how many people had told him that his son had a notoriously weird temperament.
Because Gu Ze has always been extremely rigorous in official matters, he is still young and not yet experienced enough, so he has to make a lot of preparations before every meeting, just in case.
Although Gu Ze was a bit careless when talking about cooperation, he could still get along harmoniously. However, without this need, it was extremely difficult for these people to come to see him in private and make friends.
Not to mention meeting in person, even sending a message, no one showed up.
Obviously, for Shi Li, who had just graduated from high school and still had several months to reach adulthood, these fields were still too far away for him.
As he listened to Gu Ze's long speech, his mind was a little confused. From time to time, he said "hmm" twice and nodded, as if he was still a little lost in his thoughts, thinking about something in a daze.
Gu Ze raised two or three topics, but Shi Li brushed them off.
Just like how he treated others before, Shi Li treated him now. Gu Ze sighed slightly and looked down at him, "Are you scared?" Shi Li nodded subconsciously, and after realizing it, he shook his head, "No. "
"I, you..."
"Forget it, I don't take that strange person to heart."
Shi Li struggled for a moment and changed the subject.
Gu Ze asked back, "Really?"
Shi Li confirmed, "Really, thanks to my brother for coming in time."
Gu Ze asked, "Then why are you ignoring people?"
He asked directly and clearly.
Shi Li panicked, "No, didn't I make a sound?" He turned around and pulled Gu Ze's arm, "Stop talking about this, aren't you going to take me to visit your school?"
"I want to Go and see the classrooms and laboratories where you usually take classes. Do you have a dormitory here?"
"What's the food in the cafeteria like?"
"Is there a library here? Where is it? How many floors are there? Do you know the best three hundred Tang poems by heart?"
Shi Li continued one sentence after another, pulling Gu Ze's arm and the sleeves of his black suit with smooth fabric texture, almost pushing him away.
There seemed to be something wrong. Gu Ze narrowed his eyes slightly, and after a while, he replied, "No, I don't live here, but I am assigned."
"If you want to see the canteen, we can go there to eat at noon."
"Three hundred Tang poems? Yes."
Shi Li bent his eyes and smiled, "Do you still remember how to recite it?"
Gu Ze couldn't help but curled his lower lip, "Remember."
The young man wearing a white lamb velvet jacket pulled The young man in a black suit held up his arms and walked on the path while talking. The smile on his face was always smiling and never stopped.
Occasionally, when the morning breeze blows, Shi Li will cover her face under her collar.
Although this month is already the beginning of summer, the temperature in London is still in spring. It is just right to wear a coat, but with the blowing wind, it is different.
It's really cold.
Shi Li's hands were slightly red from the cold wind. He stood up slightly on tiptoes, and without Gu Ze's precautions, he put his cold palms against the other person's neck, "I don't know when it will warm up." "
Are you cold?"
The young man suddenly appeared in a mischievous manner. He couldn't help but absorb the warmth under his palm and asked with a smile.
Gu Ze seemed to be used to the temperature here. He didn't change the posture of his slender neck. Instead, he covered the back of Shi Li's hand with his backhand, "Fortunately, it's not as cold as you."
The joints of his five fingers were clearly defined, and his palm was hot.
Shi Li He suddenly realized that this over-the-top intimate move subconsciously withdrew his hand, "I checked the weather forecast and it will be much better by noon. "
As soon as Gu Ze pressed forward, his palm fell empty. He paused for a moment before taking back his hand, "Yeah. "
The weather forecast was correct.
After it got hot at noon, Shi Li took off his coat. Underneath was a white thin collarless sweatshirt. The lambswool sweater was held by Gu Ze.
Just like that, they went to see it in the morning We visited several distinctive teaching buildings, tried the buffet-like Western-style canteen at noon, and went to the huge library for a walk in the afternoon. Shi Li even looked around to see if there was a collection of three hundred poems, but I couldn't find it after looking through several floors, but I found quite a few ancient poems from various dynasties. I had dinner
at a restaurant near the school. Because of the tradition of tipping, even in an unknown restaurant, the service was very good. Thoughtful.
Shi Li ate at ease. At seven or eight o'clock, the sky in London was still dark and bright. Gu Ze drove the car and drove home with Shi Li in the passenger seat. The boy lay on his
stomach By the window, "I wonder if Mimi eats and drinks well at home, or will it make a mess in the living room.
Gu Ze replied, "I pressed the monitor button and I can see it with my mobile phone. "
Shi Li shook his head, "I'll be able to go home in a short time. It's not too late. "
They poured a lot of cat food and water. They were not afraid that the kittens would be hungry, and they were not in a hurry to rush back.
When the car parked on both sides of the street, it was nine o'clock in the evening, and the sky was only slightly getting darker now.
Shi Li I got out of the car with Gu Ze. They walked on the aisles on both sides of the road with street lights on, occasionally saying a word or two. Gradually, the sky turned completely dark. But because it was the city center, the lights of the shops on both sides were still on. It makes the neighborhood look like a city that never sleeps.
"You parked here on purpose. "Shi Li was sure, because in the morning, Gu Ze drove the car out of the parking garage.
Gu Ze admitted generously, "Yeah. "
"The night view here is beautiful. "
Lights of different colors reflected the European-style buildings standing in the night behind them, and some shops would also play popular music. Shi Li hummed a word or two softly in response, and licked his lips, "I like it very much." He added, "There are many more songs, I can't remember them clearly."
When learning foreign languages, most of the time, I will watch some movies such as American and British dramas and listen to foreign language songs to assist. The background music of some movies is really shocking. But he did not get a response from Gu Ze, When he looked over curiously, he suddenly realized.
It seemed to be a song in a foreign language just now, but the difference was... it was in Italian.
The smile on Shi Li's lips slowly closed, and he breathed slightly nervously. He held his breath.
But in the next moment, Gu Ze said "Yeah, I like it too. "
Didn't you realize it?
Shi Li didn't dare to let go.
They walked all the way back to the community where Gu Ze lived. The noise of people suddenly became distant and blurry. Against the backdrop of the night, the sound between them The rare silence was also extraordinarily present.
Once they completely entered the building, the sounds of people on the streets outside were completely lost, leaving only the interlacing footsteps of Shi Li and Gu Ze. For a moment, they stood In front of the elevator, he waited quietly. It seemed that someone had gone up just now. The floors on the display screen jumped down one after another with Shi Li's breathing. It was so quiet. He pursed his lips slightly.
Shi Li endured He couldn't help but mutter, "It's so slow. "
He broke the weird atmosphere.
Gu Ze said "hmm", he paused and asked, "You heard that sentence and you know what it means, right? "
"Bang -" was the sound of a heart beating erratically. A low and cold voice kept lingering in his ears, shaking without any cover.
He asked like this. Mingming Asked Shi Li in vain.
You understand and know, right?
