Chapter 10

The night before was distracted by Gu Huaiyu's moderate temper, and Friedrich realized the next day that he forgot to ask how his conversation with Qin Kai was going.

However, the aftermath of things was not satisfactory.Uncle Qin is the adjutant of Old General Gu, and he is known for his upright temperament.Since there are still people in the Gu family who can take charge, he ordered Qin Kai to hand over all matters to Gu Huaiyu to take care of.

No matter how much Qin Kai objected, he still had to give in.In addition, many projects were originally involved by Friedrich's people, so he had no choice but to delegate some of the handover.

Gu Huaiyu was not familiar with these affairs at home, so Friedrich simply asked his special assistant to help him deal with them. After half a month of struggling, he finally set up an airs that he could barely cope with.

"I'm going home later." Gu Huaiyu stood in front of the washstand buttoning his shirt collar and said to another man in the mirror.

There are many meetings these days, and he has to run back every now and then.Although the distance is not far or close, but Gu Huaiyu would rather toss back and forth over and over again, rather than mention the matter of moving back.

Of course, he can't hide this little thought from others. Friedrich's heart is like a mirror, but he doesn't talk about it.

Besides, keeping people around makes it more convenient for them to mix together every day and do some shady things.

Fritz just got out of the shower and is putting on his bathrobe.He answered casually, and turned around to see that Gu Huaiyu was buttoning the top button meticulously.

In all fairness, Gu Huaiyu's appearance is not very attractive, his brows and eyes are too tough, the bridge of his nose is high, and only the line of his jaw is a little softer.

But his face is paired with the clothes that have a bit of abstinence, which always reveals some inexplicable carnal desires.

Friedrich stared at his fingers unbuttoned as usual, but what he thought in his heart was that he had to step up negotiations with the military department, and it was best to resume Gu Huaiyu's original position in the base as soon as possible.

Formal formal attire should be more tasteful than stand-up collar shirts.

Fu Lize was distracted, but put on a serious face, reached out and touched the button under Gu Huaiyu's throat, and asked, "Why is it so tight?"

Gu Huaiyu paused, and immediately understood what the person in front of him meant.His breathing quickened slightly, and he put his hand on the back of the man's hand weakly, and begged quietly, "Ah Ze, I still have a meeting."

However, Friedrich had already unbuttoned him, and with a light hook, he was in his arms again.By the way, he glanced at the two watches placed by the pool, lowered his head and kissed the hickey mark on the collarbone that Gu Huaiyu deliberately concealed, and said vaguely, "I didn't say that I wouldn't let you go."

"Aze..."

Gu Huaiyu's will was not firm, and the words that came out of his mouth gradually changed their tone.Fritz had already pushed him to the edge of the marble sink, groping along the hem of his shirt naturally, forcing him to concentrate on his movements.

"We still have two hours."

As expected, Gu Huaiyu was late for the afternoon meeting, and the culprit finished tossing him, and then he drove him back to his old house with his conscience.

Friedrich was in a good mood, and the sender did not leave, drinking tea in the garden quite leisurely.

When the meeting was coming to an end, Hutt, who had been with Gu Huaiyu for more than half a month, came over and briefly reported the content of today's meeting to him as usual.

Gu Huaiyu was indeed completely defenseless against him, and all his actions were clearly on the surface.After hearing this, Fu Lize didn't express his opinion, he just waved his hand to signal people to leave, and got up to find Gu Huaiyu for dinner.

But Gu Huaiyu was not in the study, he went upstairs and looked around but couldn't find anyone, and impatiently planning to ask the servant to look for him, he heard Gu Huaiyu calling him downstairs.

Only now did Frize realize that Gu Huaiyu's room was not upstairs like Gu Huaipei's.

"Looking for me?" Gu Huaiyu said to him downstairs.

"Yeah." Friedrich walked down the stairs slowly, and said to him, "Why don't you hide in your room when it's time to eat?"

Gu Huaiyu moved a step, stood in front of him, and made a gesture to close the door behind him, "You go to the restaurant and wait for me."

It's okay if he doesn't say anything, but after saying that, Fritz became a little interested in his room, "What are you doing in there?"

"Clean things up." Gu Huaiyu said.

"Are you done?" Friedrich asked.

He could see Gu Huaiyu's hesitation, as if he didn't want to follow him.Friedrich took a step back, pretending to be meaningless, "Come over for dinner when you're done."

Sure enough, Gu Huaiyu couldn't stand his suddenly cold face, lowered his eyes and slowly took his hand tentatively, and said obediently as usual, "It's a bit messy, do you want to come in?"

The room was actually very tidy, except for one open safe which was messy and out of place, with things in it jumbled together.Gu Huaiyu bent down to pick them up one by one, and when he picked up a piece of clothing, Fu Lize, who was standing beside him, felt a little familiar.

He took a closer look and recognized that the logo on the back collar was the logo of his own research and development group, "Do you also put a piece of clothing in a safe?"

Gu Huaiyu followed his gaze to look at the bulletproof vest in his hand, raised his head and said, "You don't remember."

He used a declarative tone, and there was something familiar about disappointment.Friedrich frowned slightly, subconsciously thinking about whether he really forgot something.

But that bulletproof suit was an old style a few years ago, and the group's research and development has changed several generations over the years.

With so many things to look at every day, he really doesn't have much memory.

Gu Huaiyu leaned over to put the things back into the safe, untied the necklace he had been wearing all the time and put them back together, sealed the combination lock, stood up and said to him, "Let's go."

Gu Huaiyu's expression was a little downcast, which disturbed Fu Lize, who had always disliked taking care of others' emotions.But he still asked, "What is the origin of that dress?"

"It's nothing... It's something about my childhood." Gu Huaiyu replied vaguely.

"You don't even remember," he said again.

For Friedrich, there are too many memories that can occupy his attention in his adult life. The boring life of the Gu family in the past few years is indeed far away, and the details that can be remembered are very limited.

And most of those clips have nothing to do with Gu Huaiyu.

He didn't know who he was competing with, and he didn't end the topic. "It's been a while. I haven't forgotten all of it."

Walking to the dining table, Friedrich pulled away the chair for Gu Huaiyu, searched his stomach for a long time, and said, "I remember you like lemon candy."

Gu Huaiyu was slightly stunned, his hands on the back of the chair tightened, his knuckles turned white.

"When you were in high school?" Friedrich said, "That kind of candy is a specialty of my mother's. I asked Aunt Zhang to buy it the day before. The next day I saw two candy wrappers dropped out of your backpack."

Gu Huaiyu didn't expect Friedrich to pay attention to such a trivial matter, his ears turned red, and he took a while to argue, "I only took a few."

"The old way, it's quite delicious." Friedrich leaned on the table and smiled, and stepped down the steps.He picked up the chopsticks and said casually, "At that time, there was a back alley in the central area selling them. I don't know if they are still open now."

"is it?"

Gu Huaiyu sat at an arm's length away from him, stared at his side face with his head tilted, and suddenly froze for a moment.

In the past few years, Friedrich remembered some and forgot some, interlaced and not overlapping with Gu Huaiyu's memory.

But thinking that perhaps this person's eyes had once fallen on him, his heart felt a little better amidst the subtle sourness.

The dinner ended in a hurry, and people came to see Friedrich one after another.He simply finished his meal and went out to a clubhouse in the central area.

Gu Huaiyu had an appointment with Fang Ting, so he waited at home for someone to come over.Fang Ting's ears were psychic, and as soon as he entered the door, he yelled at Gu Huaiyu about the situation at the military headquarters.

There were a few twists and turns in Friedrich's negotiations with the military, but the overall situation was fine.Not surprisingly, Gu Huaiyu's colonel status should be restored soon.

"When are you going back to the base?" Fang Ting asked.

Gu Huaiyu lay on the deck chair by the pool, closed his eyes and said nothing, his white arms rested on the edge of the tea table, and his fingertips lightly tapped on the table.

Fang Ting still wanted to say something, but Hutt's assistant came over from a distance with the documents.Handing it in front of Gu Huaiyu, he half stood up, didn't know whether he had read the content or not, and signed it hastily.

When the person holding the documents left, Fang Ting wiped his hair with a towel, and kicked the people around him, "I'm asking you, don't you want to go back? Are you so happy to be raised by Fu?"

He saw a smile on Gu Huaiyu's mouth, and he became even more angry, "Also, what's the relationship between you guys, you can do whatever his people tell you to do? You can't care so much about friends..."

Almost pouring out all the thoughts in his heart, Fang Ting quickly covered his mouth.

Gu Huaiyu heard it clearly, but just turned his head and smiled at him.

Fang Ting was at a loss for words for a while, Gu Huaiyu sometimes seemed confused, and sometimes he was sober.Fang Ting didn't know if he was intoxicated by his unclear relationship with Friedrich, or if he had other plans.

"It's really..." The boy curled his lips, threw away the towel and fell on the reclining chair, "Do whatever you want."

Fang Ting's temper came and went quickly, he pestered Gu Huaiyu to play a few rounds of Texas Hold 'Em and won a big victory, then went home excitedly.Gu Huaiyu sent him off, took the car keys he had when he arrived, and drove to find Friedrich.

I heard that not long after the transaction ended, a wine and meat game was just opened to add to the fun.Gu Huaiyu didn't go up to find someone, but sat in the car and waited.

Special assistant Xu should have reported his movements to Friedrich long ago.

The weather is hot, the car is closed, and the temperature is very low.Gu Huaiyu didn't want to make the car smell like cigarettes, so he got out of the car and lit a cigarette and started smoking.

There aren't many nightclubs around here, so it naturally quiets down in the middle of the night.He looked up at the towering building in front of him for a while, and then stared at the quiet back alley extending to both sides.

Gu Huaiyu took the cigarette and walked towards the back alley in a mysterious manner.The small shops facing the street were not all closed yet, so he walked in the shadow of lights cast on the road by one shop after another, looking for a grocery store that sold sugar.

There are two grocery stores open, but the boss said that they have stopped production long ago.

Gu Huaiyu turned around twice, and finally walked towards the intersection empty-handed and heavy-footed, as if carrying the sincerity that he couldn't get Friedrich to accept.
