52 Chapter 52
Originally, the place where the two of them sat was quite erratic, and generally speaking, it should not attract much attention. However, Gu Xu was sitting here, which is another matter. Even if she was wearing casual clothes, the aura had not weakened at all. ˋˊSo when Xia Zichen saw Chen Yicheng, Chen Yicheng also turned around and looked at it, just facing Xia Zichen's eyes.
Although the two of them had a little unhappy about the incident of Lian Fei'er before, when they met here, Xia Zichen nodded politely, and could not be regarded as unfamiliar. After a flash of surprise, Chen Yicheng did not express much, and seemed not to be about to have anything to do with Xia Zichen.
It is understandable that in this circle, especially the younger generation, it is not a big deal to have a male lover around them, but not everyone will do this with a male lover to attend such a party. After all, homosexuality and love are still taboo, especially in such a shopping mall where marriages are frequent, it is fine to play privately, but it is also his reputation that he really destroys on the table.
Chen Yicheng didn't expect Gu Xu to bring Xia Zichen to come. Although he had seen Gu Xu take Xia Zichen to have dinner with Gu Yan before, he did not feel how much Gu Yan liked Xia Zichen during the meal. He felt that he was just treating his younger brother's ordinary friends, so he did not classify Xia Zichen into the ranks of the Gu family. Even though Gu Xu was dating Xia Zichen now, he felt from the bottom of his heart that the two of them would still be separated.
Today, Xia Zichen appeared here without hesitation. Chen Yicheng was not prepared to contact Xia Zichen more before he figured out the situation. Moreover, he came with his father today, so he could not reduce his value by himself.
Xia Zichen has always been a very sensitive person, especially in other people's attitude towards him. Although Chen Yicheng's actions were not obvious, he still felt the kind of disagreement that he was unwilling to admit that the two knew each other. Xia Zichen did not feel sad about this, but on the contrary, he felt a bit ridiculous. The so-called friend was actually just like this. ˋˊ
Feeling Xia Zichen's emotions, Gu Xu held his hand and handed some to his mouth, "Eat."
Xia Zichen took a bite and said, "I'm full, I won't eat it anymore." He ate a lot today. The chef Gu Yan hired was really good in craftsmanship, and the food was exquisite but not flashy but not insignificant. I felt that it was not good to eat.
"Yes." Gu Xu ate the remaining half and whispered: "Don't care about those irrelevant people, waste time."
"I didn't care." Xia Zichen smiled and said, "I just felt a little hypocritical."
"If you are with me, there will be many such gatherings in the future. If you don't like it, I won't take you there." They have been used to these social engagements for a long time, but Xia Zichen's life has always been very simple. It is natural to suddenly let him join this complex interpersonal relationship.
Xia Zichen thought for a while and said, "If it is necessary, I can accompany you. Anyway, I can sit aside and eat."
Gu Xu smiled and said, "When did you become a foodie? Let Luo Ji lead you to the wrong way."
In the past, Xia Zichen had no special preference for eating, but since he was with Gu Xu, Gu Xu always made some things he had never eaten for him to taste from time to time. In addition, Luo Ji liked to tell Xia Zichen online whether there was anything good or not. Gradually, Xia Zichen began to study this aspect of eating, and in fact, food can also make people feel better. ˋˊ
"Don't talk about Luo Ji, you have a responsibility, too." Xia Zichen accused him jokingly.
"Yes." Gu Xu did not deny it, "I don't object to eating, but you have to grow some meat, so that's what you eat."
Xia Zichen "cuts" and said, "Anyway, he has this kind of physique and has nothing to do with what he has brought since childhood.
After nine o'clock, the guests who should have arrived were also here one after another. Everyone stood together and chatted in groups. There were also a few young couples dancing with the music on the dance floor in the middle. The atmosphere was very harmonious and there was no way to see the intrigues and scrambles in the shopping mall.
After a round of social events, Gu Yan walked over and said, "How is it? Is it still suitable for your appetite?"
Xia Zichen looked up and smiled, "Yeah, it's very good."
"That's good." Gu Yan sat down to Xia Zichen's right and said to the assistant on the side: "Let me redeem two glasses of fruit wine at the bar."
Knowing that his younger brother was not interested in fruit wine, Gu Yan didn't ask him for help. He drank a lot of wine after a social event, and now he just wanted to drink something that tasted light.
The assistant nodded and turned around and walked towards the bar.
"You guys sit first, I'll go to the bathroom." Gu Xu stood up, with Gu Yan here, he didn't have to worry about leaving Xia Zichen alone here and someone would come up to get in touch.
After Gu Xu left, Gu Yan asked: "How is it? Are you getting along with Xiao Xu recently?"
"Um
As he was talking, the assistant brought two glasses of prepared fruit wine over, and then walked away a little consciously, without disturbing the two of them.
Seeing him nodding, Gu Yan smiled and took out a bunch of keys and two door cards from his suit pocket, handed them to Xia Zichen and said, "This is my brother's wish. I haven't purchased anything yet. You two can do it."
Xia Zichen was stunned for a moment, watching Gu Yan put the thing in his hand at a loss, "I..."
Gu Yan picked up the cup, touched Xia Zichen's, and said, "I will leave it to you in the future. Call me any time if you have any."
Xia Zichen's hand holding the cup tightened a little. Since he was with Gu Xu, his relationships seemed to be very smooth, and sometimes he couldn't believe it himself.
Seeing that he was still a little stunned, Gu Yan smiled and patted his shoulder. At this time, the assistant on one side pointed to the other side of the venue and signaled that someone wanted to talk to Gu Yan.
"I'll go there first. This wine is good, you can try it." Gu Yan took a sip and felt that he had indeed invited the right bartender today.
"Yeah." Xia Zichen nodded, picked up the cup and took a sip. The taste was very light, suitable for people like him who can't drink.
Gu Yan didn't say anything else, got up and walked towards the assistant.
Xia Zichen drank the wine in the glass and saw the bottom in just a few sips.ˋˊ
Gu Xu, who came back from the bathroom, took away the cup from Xia Zichen's hand and said with some amusement: "Even if the taste is light, you can't drink it like this."
Xia Zichen licked the corner of his mouth and said a little embarrassedly: "It tastes good."
Gu Xu shook his head helplessly and brought two glasses of champagne from the waiter walking around the audience.
"This..." Xia Zichen stuffed the key and door card in his hand to Gu Xu, "It was given by my brother."
Gu Xu took it and looked at the address on the door card and understood. He naturally would not refuse Gu Yan's kindness, and his elder brother never liked his family to refuse. He prepared the house, even if he agreed with Xia Zichen, it would be a good thing for him.
"Since my brother has given it, we will go and see what we need to buy in two days." Gu Xu naturally put the room card and key into Xia Zichen's bag.
"good."
Gu Yan sat for a while and said a few words to Xia Zichen. This was nothing to Xia Zichen, but it attracted more people present to explore.
Xia Zichen didn't care too much and was still chatting with Gu Xu, but he didn't know if it was because of the alcohol. He felt a little hot, but his head didn't hurt or dizzy.
"What's wrong?" Gu Xu asked, looking at Xia Zichen who was something wrong.
"It's nothing, it's a little hot." Xia Zichen gave him a reassuring smile, "I'll go wash my face."
"Yeah." Gu Xu responded, looking at Xia Zichen who was walking away in confusion. The air conditioner in the banquet hall was turned on very well, and he didn't even feel hot. Why did Xia Zichen suddenly feel hot? Even after drinking, his face would be blushing and hot, so he would not sweat...
Xia Zichen walked into the bathroom, turned on cold water and washed a few handfuls. The heat on his face dropped a lot, but the heat on his body did not improve. He frowned, Xia Zichen closed the water and pulled the paper on one side to wipe the water on his face.
After wiping it a few times, the heat on his face came back, as if it was even hotter than before. Xia Zichen supported the sink with one hand. Although he didn't drink alcohol, he wouldn't just drink it like this. Besides, the wine was so light, so there shouldn't be anything wrong. Moreover, he is not sleepy now and is very clear-minded, so he shouldn't be drunk...
Just as he was thinking, the changes under his body shocked Xia Zichen, and he actually responded...
Xia Zichen, who had no reaction at all, stood there in a daze, not knowing what to do. Although it was not so obvious, it was completely out of control.
At this time, the bathroom door was pushed open from outside. Shen Yicheng walked in and saw Xia Zichen stunned. He asked in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"
Xia Zichen immediately came to his senses, turned to the side and smiled reluctantly, and said, "It's okay, maybe I'm a little drunk."
Shen Yicheng looked at him, except that his face was blushing, and he didn't find anything wrong, so he continued: "I didn't expect to meet you here today."
"Yeah." Xia Zichen didn't have much intention to talk to him. He just wanted to find Gu Xu as soon as possible. This was the first time since they dated that he wanted Gu Xu to appear so long as Gu Xu appeared. It seemed that as long as Gu Xu appeared, there was no need to worry about anything...
"Gu Yan seems to treat you very well..." Shen Yicheng observed Xia Zichen's expression. He just saw Gu Yan talking to Xia Zichen. The atmosphere was very good, and he just wanted to be a family.
"Well..." Before Xia Zichen's words could be finished, a wave of heat surged from his body, which made Xia Zichen almost scream. Even if he was simple now, he vaguely knew what was wrong with him. All he had to do was leave here and find Gu Xu.
"When are you free? I'll treat you to dinner." Shen Yicheng said: "We have never seen each other since the holiday. I'm not busy these days and I'm just gathering together."
Xia Zichen lowered his head slightly and whispered: "Let's talk about it then..."
No matter how careless Shen Yicheng was, he could hear Xia Zichen's voice trembling, and he reached out to help him, "What's wrong with you?"
"It's okay." Xia Zichen reluctantly avoided Shen Yicheng's hand that came out, "I'll go first..."
Before he could finish his words, the bathroom door was pushed open again, and Gu Xu walked over quickly.
Seeing Gu Xu, Xia Zichen felt relieved.
Gu Xu didn't say anything, but hugged Xia Zichen directly. Xia Zichen was a little weak and hit Gu Xu's body. He raised his reaction and pushed Gu Xu's legs. He made his hand holding Gu Xu's arm tighten instantly, and suppressed a moan that almost overflowed.
Gu Xu was stunned for a moment, patted his shoulder gently, and whispered in his ear: "It's okay..."
Xia Zichen nodded slightly and said nothing.
Gu Xu didn't stop for a long time, and took Xia Zichen away from the bathroom, leaving Chen Yicheng's sudden notice of his back...
