Chapter 12

Gu Huaiyu's words were straight and cool, and his voice was very weak, which made people feel a little mocking.

It's been a long time since someone turned his face like this, and Friedrich laughed back angrily, "Why, Mr. Gu's card skills haven't improved at all?"

"I was so slick just now, can't I learn this social gadget well?"

There was a sting in his words.Although Gu Huaiyu was not someone who would be easily irritated, he still couldn't help but open his mouth to refute him.But before the words came out, the elevator door opened first.

None of them pressed the floor, and the elevator stayed where it was.The person outside the door looked pale, looked at the two people in the elevator with ambiguous postures in horror, took a step back and said, "Fu, Mr. Fu... I, I just want to go downstairs..."

It's the little love that Friedrich brought with him tonight.

What a fucking coincidence.Fu Lize's face was full of clouds, and he secretly cursed two curse words in his heart.

"Aze, you have no shortage of people who can play cards for you." Gu Huaiyu looked at the trembling young man, and politely pressed Friedrich's hand, signaling the man to let go of him.

That hand was dry and warm, and without much effort, Friedrich felt that the back of the hand was covered with a piece of jade that was cold to the touch, delicate and moist, as if he could play it to his heart's desire.

He was still thinking about whether to spend a little more time coaxing the person in front of him, but Gu Huaiyu had already withdrawn and walked away.

"I still have an appointment." As he said, he turned his head and nodded to the people outside the elevator.

The young man outside the elevator hastily made way for him, and timidly glanced at Fu Lize, fearing that he would take the anger of being put down on himself.

The door opened and closed again, and Friedrich finally caught fire and took a few steps out of the elevator.

Gu Huaiyu had already walked to the next corner, talking to someone while maintaining a decent smile.It's rare for him to smile like this, it's fresh and dazzling.

Thinking about it carefully, he seems to blush most of the time when getting along, or stare intently.All because he didn't pay enough attention to Gu Huaiyu, at this moment, Friedrich realized that he knew very little about the expressions outside the bed.

The back of the man who was talking to Gu Huaiyu was somewhat familiar, he couldn't remember where he had seen it before, and suddenly saw the other person reaching out to wrap his arms around his shoulders and about to leave together, and it disappeared in the blink of an eye.

There are several reception rooms scattered around the corner. Gu Huaiyu probably has an appointment with someone.

Disappointed to the extreme tonight, Friedrich stood there for a while, then went home without saying hello to anyone.

The order to reinstate the military was announced soon, and Gu Huaiyu instantly became a hot newcomer in the social arena.Friedrich put on a high posture, and intentionally declined several events where he could see him, planning that Gu Huaiyu would lose his composure and come to him on his own initiative within a few days.

His idea was good, but unfortunately something happened. Shen Pingchuan, who had just finished his official business trip, was the host and held a rather grand social party, so he was strongly invited to go.

Gu Huaiyu was also included in the invitation.

Fu Lize didn't think about the friendship between Gu Huaiyu and Shen Pingchuan, he only heard that he was going too, and before he left, he spent two or three hours at home taking care of his appearance, and went out as if he was going to fight with others car.

He has learned from the past, and he simply did not bring a companion tonight.

When he arrived at Shen's house, Lu Chong saw him walking into the banquet hall alone, and asked with pain in his teeth, "Didn't anyone bring one? I really plan to marry old sister Shen, come and pretend to be a 24-year-old young man."

Friedrich sneered, "Shen Pingshan didn't show her face, so I'll pretend to show you?"

"Who said it wasn't revealed." Lu Chong tilted his wine glass slightly, and pointed to the group of people on the right side, "Isn't that just saying hello to the group of people in the military department?"

The smile on the corner of Friedrich's mouth disappeared immediately, and he slowly turned his face to look to the other side.Gu Huaiyu arrived early, wearing a neat uniform, very eye-catching among the young men and women.

After Shen Pingchuan's simple entertainment, he noticed Fu Lize who had just entered the door, and brought his sister over with a smile, "Ah Ze."

Gu Huaiyu's gaze naturally turned to this side.

"Old Shen, I haven't seen you for a while." Friedrich smiled.

Shen Pingshan had dealt with Fu Lize several times before, and had a drink with him enthusiastically, "Mr. Fu, we meet again. Ah - the last time we met was at your horse farm."

Friedrich didn't have what Lu Chong said, but at this moment he acted like a proper suitor, "I haven't seen Miss Shen recently."

"I was busy with the affairs of the charity association a while ago, I just had some leisure yesterday." Shen Pingshan said with a smile.

Friedrich stretched out his hand to let her take his arm, and smiled, "It just so happens that a friend gave Peavris a gift, and we're going to run two laps together the day after tomorrow?"

"Okay."

Seeing this, Shen Pingchuan smiled and teased, "You two hit it off very well."

"I hit it off with Mr. Fu's horse." Shen Pingshan blinked at Fu Lize, and the diamond earrings flashed twice with her movements, looking extra playful.

People around came over to make fun of each other, boasting that the two looked like a pair of strangers.Shen Pingchuan's attitude was ambiguous, as if he really recognized Friedrich's brother-in-law, he patted him on the shoulder with a smile, "Don't let her mess around with you too much."

"How could it be?" Friedrich put down the champagne glass and made a gesture of invitation, "Miss Shen, would you like to go for a walk outside?"

Shen Pingshan nodded generously and followed him away slowly.The door on the left was obviously closer, but Friedrich was about to walk to the right, passing the officers who were talking calmly.

He approached Gu Huaiyu step by step, turned his face away casually when he was about to meet someone's eyes, and chatted with Shen Pingshan about the recent horse races with a smile.

But from the corner of his eyes, he could clearly see Gu Huaiyu's expression dimmed, his eyes lowered, and his lips pursed.

That was the expression that Gu Huaiyu would have when he was suffering and struggling, it was usually like this when he was asking for hugs and tenderness with Friedrich.

Just blushing, not so lost and pale.

As soon as we got outside, the heat wave caused the men and women who were holding arms to separate naturally.Sensing that Fu Lize was absent-minded, Shen Pingshan proposed to go back to rest in due course after not walking too far.

Fu Lize returned to the banquet hall, looked around, but did not see Gu Huaiyu.He kicked his best friend who was busy flirting with others without a trace, and asked him where Gu Huaiyu had gone.

Lu Chong was so kicked by Fu Lize that he almost vomited, so he stood up straight and glared at him, "You fucking...can't you be gentle?"

"People have already left."

Seeing that Fu Lize's face was cloudy, he rolled his eyes and said, "What else do you care about him, you should think about how to deal with your Miss Shen."

The run-on man took a few sips from another glass of champagne on the table, put down the glass and kicked him again, "Let's go."

Lu Chong suffered unreasonable disasters repeatedly, wishing to pour two glasses of wine on him to sober up.But Fu Lize's legs were fast, and he went downstairs and got into the car as soon as he informed Shen Pingchuan.

No drink tonight, Friedrich couldn't find the source of his restlessness.While looking at the night scene flying by outside the window with a cold face, he considered whether to ask someone to come to the house to vent.

But the little bit of alcohol became active again at this moment, forcing him to recall Gu Huaiyu's flexible body and the jerky and emotional reaction on the bed.

Rubbing his thumb against the knuckles of his index finger, a thought raced through his mind.

Or...go to the Gu family.

"Sir." The driver in the front row suddenly interrupted his thoughts, "Do you want to go and have a look?"

"What's the matter?" Friedrich asked impatiently.

"It seems to be Colonel Gu in front, the car must have broken down."

Friedrich suddenly regained his spirits.He looked out the window and found that Gu Huaiyu was standing more than ten meters away from him.This section of the road is too remote, except for guests like them who left early, there may not be a car for an hour.

The driver was lifting the hood of the car for maintenance, while Gu Huaiyu was quietly smoking a cigarette by the side of the road.

Friedrich stared at the slightly red lips and the slender fingers holding the cigarette, opened the door and got out of the car and called him, "Colonel Gu."

Gu Huaiyu's movements obviously froze, and he turned his head to look at him, forgetting to dust off the cigarette ash.

"The car broke down?" Friedrich asked knowingly.

"En." Gu Huaiyu nodded.

Friedrich closed the car door, took two steps, and stretched out his hand to him, "I'll see you off."

Gu Huaiyu and him looked at each other, and after a while, he raised his hand and continued to smoke, and said in a low voice, "No need, I asked someone to drive over."

"is it?"

The two drivers went to the other side at some point, and Gu Huaiyu was standing at the rear of his RV, being locked in the shadow that the street lights couldn't reach by Friedze step by step.

Friedrich threw away the cigarette in his hand that was already burning to his fingertips, pressed down on him recklessly, and kissed him wetly in the strong smell of tobacco.

Gu Huaiyu was not as submissive as before this time, he pushed him a few times, "Aze!"

His resistance made the already restless man even more angry.Friedrich used some strength, "How many days have you hung me up? Now you don't even want to kiss me?!"

He violently pulled Gu Huaiyu's clothes, pinched his waist so that he could only cling to him, "You have to break up, Xiao Yu."

Gu Huaiyu seemed to be stabbed by his "breakup gun", and his body trembled slightly.He confronted Fritz for a long time in the dark, "You—"

His voice was astringent and moist, and Friedrich almost thought that he was so choked up that he couldn't speak, his heart softened involuntarily, and he hesitated to speak a few words to ease it.

But at this moment, the beams of car lights flickered in the distance, and Friedrich knew that the Gu family's car had arrived, so he held his wrist even harder and said, frowning, "Go home first."

The car was getting closer and closer, and the headlights illuminated the expressions of the two people gradually becoming clearer in each other's eyes.Friedrich saw the corner of Gu Huaiyu's mouth twitching, and pulled out an embarrassing smile.

"Mr. Fu's family will soon have a mistress." Gu Huaiyu pressed Fu Lize's slightly warmer arm with his other hand, and stated calmly, "Go home, let's forget it."
