Chapter 81
Gu Bao was awakened by the sound of opening the door. He sat up from the bed, leaned forward instinctively, and looked like he was about to pounce on the person.
As he moved, his clothes slipped down, which was Pei Ting's coat.
He was waiting in Pei Ting's bed last night, holding someone's clothes, and didn't know when he fell asleep or fainted.
Gu Bao was not in good condition, his body was so hot that his left hand was completely swollen, and the purple-black bruises were scattered on the back of his hand, which was shocking.
The person at the door was Wu's sister-in-law. Wu's sister-in-law was not surprised by his in Pei Ting's room. Instead, she looked at Gu Bao with a hesitant and embarrassed expression, not knowing how to speak.
Gu Bao licked his dry lips and got up from the bed. He felt dizzy. When he recovered, he was already sitting on the bed.
The fifth sister-in-law came to him and touched his forehead worriedly: "You are still having a fever, you shouldn't be discharged from the hospital so early."
Gu Bao shook his head: "It's okay." He glanced at the time: "Fifth Sister-in-law, why did you come here so early?"
The fifth sister-in-law sighed: "Young Master asked me to come here." She looked at Gu Bao's eyes that appeared in hope, and said unbearablely: "Come here to help you pack up your things."
Gu Bao's eyes were like lamps, not closing crisply, but burning, and dimming slightly.
Wu Sister-in-law: "I'll bring you the suitcase."
Gu Bao suddenly reached out and grabbed the fifth sister-in-law's hand and begged: "Fifth sister-in-law, are you going to get engaged today? Can you tell me where he is engaged?"
The fifth sister-in-law was startled by his behavior and heard him mention the engagement: "Oh, I can't explain this matter clearly for a while, and I actually don't know what's going on."
Gu Bao: "You just need to give me an address. Are you worried that I will cause trouble? I don't know. I just want to say a few words to my brother!"
Wu Sister-in-law: "It's not that I don't want to give an address, it's that the engagement has been cancelled."
"What?" Gu Bao said in surprise: "When was it cancelled..."
Wushao: "The invitation was sent out, but it was urgent to cancel it, and we didn't know what was going on."
Gu Bao said anxiously: "Where is that brother now?"
The fifth sister-in-law: "I don't know. The young master hasn't returned to the old house and is not here. He always contacted me by phone and asked me to come and help you move."
Gu Bao lowered his hand in disappointment and was silent for a while. He said, "I won't leave."
The fifth sister-in-law didn't expect that Gu Bao would be so difficult to persuade: "Gu Bao, let's go, you can't live here even if you want to live here."
"Why can't it be possible? Tell me, I'll live here. If he doesn't come back for a day, I'll wait here all day." Gu Bao said stubbornly.
Sister-in-law Wu: "Why don't you understand? The young master will not come back to this house. Today I will not only come to help you move, but also clean up all the things of the young master. If this house is to be sold, it doesn't make sense for you to stay here."
Gu Bao's eyes turned dark, and Pei Ting actually planned to sell the house. He did so well that he cut off all the opportunities that Gu Bao might pester him.
He was so angry that he almost cried. He didn't understand why things were like this, and he hated himself who was lying and hiding at the beginning.
Seeing that he had not moved, the fifth sister-in-law did not force her to force her, but instead retreated and helped Pei Ting pack up her things.
Does Gu Bao want to make trouble? He thought, he wanted to stay here, forcing the house to be sold, and forced Pei Ting to show up to see him. He had a lot of questions and wanted to explain them clearly.
But he knew that doing this was useless, it was ugly, immature, and crying was ridiculous.
Gu Bao felt uncomfortable in the room for a long time, but finally cheered up and walked out of the room. He put himself in his shoes and thought for Pei Ting. When he said that he had broken up, he must have made up his mind.
It is normal not to want to see him now. Pei Ting cannot hide from him for the rest of his life, and there will always be a chance to meet him, right?
Gu Bao comforted himself, but still couldn't help crying while packing his luggage. This was not what he thought he would leave Pei Ting's house, but in a short time, everything changed.
He didn't have much stuff, so he quickly packed a suitcase. He went to help his fifth sister-in-law, but saw his fifth sister-in-law holding a key and opening the door at the end of the corridor.
Pei Ting had never opened the door. He said that the storage room was locked on weekdays.
Today, he was turned on by his fifth sister-in-law. After turning on the light, he saw his fifth sister-in-law showing a obviously scared expression.
A sense of intuition made Gu Bao walk over quickly. When his fifth sister-in-law heard the footsteps, she subconsciously wanted to close the door: "Gu Bao, don't come here first."
Her stop was useless, so Gu Bao pushed the door open. What caught his eye was a bedroom. When Pei Ting rented a room for Gu Bao when he was near his university.
Small desk, dog wood carvings, blankets, books and ballpoint pens, and photos hanging on the wall.
There are not many, only five.
But Gu Bao recognized the time of the photos at first glance. From college to when he went abroad, his hairstyle changed several times. There were curly hair, straight hair, and dyed during the period.
A picture of snow was the first time he saw Xue when he was studying abroad. He wore a furry hat and gloves, grabbed Xue and played with others.
The person who took the photo was careful, it looked like he was taking it from a distance, and it was printed and enlarged, so the pixels were distorted, and Gu Bao's face was a bit blurry.
Gu Bao stood blankly at the door, and his fifth sister-in-law said helplessly: "I told you not to come."
He whispered, "Brother asked you to clean up this house, right?" What should Pei Ting do if he wants to take these things? Pei Ting can't let him go. If he could let go, he couldn't even let go of his engagement back then. How could he break up easily now?
Gu Bao felt a little warm in his heart. He looked at his fifth sister-in-law expectantly: "Did you ask you to pack up the things in this room? Don't let me know!"
It must be! Otherwise, why didn’t my fifth sister-in-law let him come? Was it Pei Ting called him?
The more he thought about it, the more excited he became, but when he saw the expression of his fifth sister-in-law, he felt cold all over.
The fifth sister-in-law looked away, as if she didn't know how to tell him.
Gu Bao asked with difficulty: "No, isn't it?"
The fifth sister-in-law shook her head: "Everyone told you not to come."
"The young master asked me to deal with all the things in this room." The fifth sister-in-law was still honest. Even if she couldn't bear it, she thought the young master's attitude was already so obvious. Even if she felt that Gu Bao was pitiful, she still had to let Gu Bao recognize the facts.
After a dead silence, Gu Bao seemed to be stunned, and he couldn't understand the words of his fifth sister-in-law. He stared at his fifth sister-in-law in a daze, his eyes were like a broken lake, which made people feel sad when they glanced at him.
He turned his head crampedly and walked into the room without letting his fifth sister-in-law see him cry.
Gu Bao reached out and took off the photo frame, and turned his back to his fifth sister-in-law: "He doesn't want it anymore, right?"
Wu Sister-in-law didn't answer this, and they all knew what Pei Ting's handling meant.
Gu Bao moved gently in the room, every move was very careful. He cherished these things and the friendship behind him, and knew that it was useless and meaningless.
He even found a letter he buried underground during the Time Capsule activity. Pei Ting, the thief, took his letter and hid it in the room.
The letter was opened several times, full of traces of rubbing.
Gu Bao's letter has no actual content, he just has hope for his future self.
It turned out that during the years of separation, Pei Ting had secretly visited him, but he didn't know.
He knew it now, and it seemed too late, because Pei Ting wanted all these things, including him.
Gu Bao packed up one by one, and his fifth sister-in-law made a cardboard box, took it to the room for him to install it, and said to him: "If you want to take it away, just take it away. I'll talk about it when the young master is there."
Gu Bao nodded. He had no strength to speak now. He felt surging fatigue just by moving his body. It was like his heart was pressed heavily, and it was so hard to even beat.
The fifth sister-in-law also brought a medicine bag and said to Gu Bao: "I think your hands are too serious, so I'll take the medicine first."
The medicine bag was once used by Pei Ting on Gu Bao's knees. At that time, Pei Ting would give the wound a kiss.
But he pretended to be asleep and avoided. Those who were not cherished were all clearly revealed in his mind, and he was slacking off Gu Bao. It turned out that this was the feeling of regret.
Gu Bao quietly asked his fifth sister-in-law to pull his hand over. After applying medicine, the fifth sister-in-law said, "Don't bother with this hand, won't it hurt?"
"Actually, I don't feel it." Gu Bao said. The fifth sister-in-law felt pain when she looked at the bruise: "How come she doesn't feel it? It's so serious."
Gu Bao actually didn't lie. He didn't pretend to be strong, but he felt more uncomfortable, and the pain in his body did not feel too strong.
There was only one box in the whole room when the things were packed out. Gu Bao held the box and pulled the suitcase up. He did not make the fifth sister-in-law embarrassed and took the initiative to walk out of the house.
The door was closed behind him, and Gu Bao turned around and looked at the gray door.
He walked towards the elevator step by step and suddenly understood the meaning of 1029.
It's actually easy to guess, but he never guessed it.
1029. Five years ago, Pei Ting said he would not come to him again, and they had a complete breakup.
This house was hopelessly waiting for Pei Ting.
Pei Ting may never have thought that he could really wait for him. The time they were together was like a short dream. He was screwed up by Gu Bao, and he had no idea what he was consuming.
So Pei Ting had already walked forward. He didn't want this room, so he cut it open, let himself go, and Gu Bao go.
When Gu Bao arrived downstairs, he felt lonely that he didn't know where to go.
And he deserves all this.
Gu Bao walked to the playground, and there were a few children playing with Trojan horses. Gu Bao dragged his suitcase to the slide.
When he first came, his heart fell asleep on it. Pei Ting found him and said to him, let's go home.
Gu Bao went up the stairs and sat in the small room. The children were gradually shouted back by their parents, and the sun went from noon to dusk.
Gu Bao didn't wait for someone to pick him up home.
Maybe that person will never come.
