Chapter 87.1: 合謀
[Collusion / Conspire]
Chen Xing heard him say this sentence, his heart suddenly welled up with a sense of mission. Looking at him while he patted his chest, his tone was extraordinarily serious: “You can rest assured that I will always accompany you.”
Gu Lang looked at him with an unusually serious look, the corner of his mouth slightly hooked, with a serious tone, “Then from now on, I have to trouble Xing Xing to take care of yourself more.”
Chen Xing listened to Gu Lang lowered his voice to speak, the tip of the ear slightly red, somewhat did not know how to answer it well, and finally still looked at him and said: “No need to be polite.”
Gu Lang suddenly laughed, that voice low, muffled, with a few magnetic (deepness) , very catching people’s ears, causing Chen Xing did not know how to face him well.
Gu Lang looked at his eyes dodging as he looked toward Chen Xing who was looking around but not looking at him. He also no longer continues to tease him. He turned around and wanted to put the things he brought back in place. The books that are placed here will be taken back and replaced with a few new ones. When he looked at the corner of the counter, he found that several books that were usually placed there were gone so a bit of doubt appeared in his eyes.
Chen Xing came back from the embarrassment, saw the doubt on Gu Lang’s face, followed his eyes in that direction, after seeing that corner, he immediately understood that he was looking for those books, and quickly pointed in the direction of the drawer and laughed: “I’m afraid that those books will get dirty if I put them on there, so I put them in the drawer for you.”
Gu Lang smiled at Chen Xing, said thank you, and bent down to pull open the drawer, but who knew that the Chen Xing beside him suddenly spoke out, “Wait a moment!”
Only after receiving Gu Lang’s gaze did Chen Xing realize that he had accidentally said what was on his mind (his innermost thoughts and feelings), he looked at Gu Lang with an embarrassed face, shook his head, and reluctantly said, “I’m fine, you continue.”
Chen Xing just happened to remember that the painting he put on the surface, in a hurry, Gu Lang opened the cabinet door later and saw the paper on it. He must be able to guess that he already looked at that painting. He didn’t know why, but this knowledge alone made him feel a little shy.
Gu Lang carefully observed Chen Xing’s expression, seeing that in the moment of awkwardness with a little bit of shyness, he raised his eyebrows, and then opened the drawer, and what came into his eyes was the small painting at the top.
Looking at the painting, and then looking at Chen Xing who had turned his face away, Gu Lang suddenly understood why he reacted like that, he gently picked up the painting, and then looked at Chen Xing who was a bit embarrassed囧, “You saw it?”
“Hn.” Chen Xing was forced to nod his head, after nodding his head, he thought of something, as if he was afraid that Gu Lang would misunderstand him, he hastened to defend himself, “When I taking the book, it fell out on its own, I didn’t mess around with your book.”
Gu Lang looked at him and nodded his head as he seriously replied: “Hn, I know, I did not put it properly, that’s why it fell out so easily, it’s not Xing Xing’s problem.”
Listening to Gu Lang’s words as if he was cajoling a child (keep a child in good humor) and excusing him, Chen Xing quietly reddened the tips of his ears.
Gu Lang put the somewhat wrinkled paper, spread it flat, handed it to him in front of him, and seriously asked: “Do you like it?”
Chen Xing looked at the painting of the two extraordinarily fascinating ordinary men, not quite able to say something against his will, he did not like the words, and finally could only, in the line of sight of Gu Lang, unnaturally or awkwardly admit, “I like it.”
Seems to have guessed Chen Xing’s answer, Gu Lang’s face immediately showed a joyful look, then looked at him as he said, “There are still many of these things at home, if you want to see them, I’ll go back and show them to you.”
“Good.” Chen Xing obeyed his words, muttered answers, only to find that they were not quite right, raised his eyes to look in the direction of Gu Lang as he unbelievably said: “Is there still a lot of it?”
Looking at Chen Xing’s surprised look, Gu Lang nodded his head, but he was exceptionally calm and frank as he said: “I have nothing to do when I draw randomly, this period of time I accumulated a lot, I will put it home.”
