Gu Bai simply tidied up after breakfast, took his key and stood at the door, staring at the man and the cat in silence. He really wished he could throw the cat away. Only when Xiao Le was this intimate with him, would he take the back the cat.
"Be good, I'll come and see you later." Qi Le hugged his son and coaxed it patiently.
The Scottish fold cat pawed him on the shoulder, rubbed its furry head on his face and meowed adorably. Qi Le smiled, kissed it on its head and put it down. The kitty side-eyed Gu Bai and arrogantly turned back to Qi Le's bedroom.
Gu Bai, "..."
They opened the door and went out. Qi Le looked at the car parked downstairs and was shocked at once."Did you drive after drink like that last night?!" Fucking hell! Is he throwing his life away?! Does he not want to live anymore?!
Gu Bai guessed what he was thinking, and thought that if he admitted to it, the man would probably move in. Then he thought that since he had decided to move, he must've found a good place to move to. Not considering the rationality of moving in temporarily, the fact that he would agree to Qi Le moving in was enough to make the latter suspect him. Therefore, he could only suggest it later. He thought about it, and in order to stop Qi Le from worrying, he added lightly, "No, I only drank after I drove back."
Qi le couldn't help but sigh in relief. He patted his frightened little heart and got in the car.
Gu Bai casually asked, "Did you turn off my cellphone?"
"Mmm, someone called yesterday, and I turned it off because I was afraid of waking you, " Qi Le said hesitantly, remembering the number he saw before turning it off. Although it was just a quick glance, the last number was the same as Ning Xiao's."I think it was Ning Xiao trying to reach me. If you're worried about it, you can call return the call."
Naturally, Gu Bai wasn't interested in doing that. He smiled, "If you woke me up, wouldn't you be able to leave then?"
Can I go without altering the painting? Why do you make it sound like Laozi deliberately did that? Turning things upside down... Qi Le lamented in his heart and pouted, "I didn't think about it then."
Gu Bai nodded and stopped teasing him, turning the topic back on the right track."Why was Ning Xiao looking for you?"
"He wanted to ask me why I hadn't returned yet."
Gu Bai casually asked, "Is your relationship that good? I remember he used to be irritated by you."
Although he didn't know Ning Xiao very well, he had heard of the man's reputation, but it wasn't a big deal either. The circle had always been messy and most of them were just fooling around. What he didn't understand was that Ning Xiao clearly didn't seem to be the kind of person who would fall in love with anyone in a short period of time, but the man's attitude towards Xiao Le was so strange that made him pay attention to the whole thing.
"We've always been like that. He can't stand the sight of me, I can't stand the sight of him either, but he's been a little weird lately." Qi Le thought for a moment and explained, "Maybe he was used to using me. Now that Laozi doesn't pester him anymore, there's no one washing his clothes or cooking his meals and he's not used to it."
There are so many people fighting to cook and wash his clothes for him. He couldn't care less if you stopped doing all of that. Gu Bai looked at him but kept his mouth closed. Xiao Le's heart had always been weak. When he was in junior high, his parents told him not to fall in love early. Xiao Le was very good at the time and obediently listened. After all, he had deliberately protected Xiao Le over the years, so he didn't really bother about falling in love. Even when he was dating Xiao Ying, the latter had asked him for his opinion first. During the one month of dating, even the act of holding hands had made Xiao Le struggle for half a month, not to mention other things. Whether this person really likes Xiao Ying or not was still uncertain, but according to his month of observation, this child was not only inexperienced in matters of the heart, but also lacking emotional awareness.
Gu Bai helplessly sighed inside, thinking to himself that he could take his time. Anyways, he wouldn't let go of this person in his life.
When the two reached the apartment, Ye Shuichuan also happened to arrive. He was accompanied by Tranny. The man had grown out the hair at the back and dyed it rainbow. He was wearing platform shoes that exposed his toes. He lazily shut the car door. Ye Shuichuan was wearing the same shoes as Tranny, paired with brightly colored clothes. They stood together, looking like two seductive demons. Ye Shuichuan looked at Gu Bai and Qi Le with bright eyes and vaguely asked, "Xiaoyuan, you didn't come home again last night?"
Qi Le pulled him upstairs, pursing his lips, "Don't be so nosy, thank you very much." He looked at Tranny who followed him, only to find that there was a slight chill in his eyes. He couldn't help but arch an eyebrow, "What's wrong with him?"
Ye Shuichuan motioned him to open the door."Go in and you'll know."
Qi Le confusedly walked into the apartment and saw a bunch of clothes scattered on the floor. Then, he turned to look at Ning Xiao's room, seeming to understand the situation. The door was wide open but there was no one inside. He was silent for a moment before turning stiffly to look at his own bedroom. He thought to himself, don't tell me Ning Xiao slept with someone and ended up fucking all the way to my bed? He opened his mouth and cried out, "Fuck! Thank God Laozi didn't come home last night, or else I would've ended up killing them!"
Gu Bai had been here before so naturally, he knew which bedroom was Xiao Le's. His gaze suddenly turned cold as he held back from exposing his real thoughts, enduring the urge to beat someone up. He thought to himself, luckily Xiao Le wasn't home last night. Otherwise, God knows what would've happened. At this moment a click sounded. Baby Face, who was wearing an oversized shirt, heard the noise and looked up. He obviously didn't expect to see Gu Bai, this stranger. He quickly picked up his clothes, went back into the room and got dressed before coming out.
