Chapter 133 Delayed Affection, Cheaper Than Grass

[Before reading this chapter again, please go back to "Wedge" and review the previous plot, this chapter connects the plot of Wedge]

After three years of separation, they reunited in a foreign country, and both of them were a little cautious.

Mo Xiaobei took Gu Yan back to his room, and said, "Sit casually, drink tea? Or coffee?"

"Coffee!" Gu Yan watched Mo Xiaobei's every move with concern.

She took off her coat, took off her hat, and skillfully made him a cup of freshly ground coffee.

She put the coffee lightly on the table in front of Gu Yan, then sat down, pretending to be calm as if receiving an old friend, and asked with a smile, "Vacation? Or a business trip?"

"To see you!" Gu Yan's answer was quick, simple and powerful.

Mo Xiaobei was stunned for a while, wondering whether he was hallucinating or hallucinating!Um!Hallucination!
Gu Yan looked at Mo Xiaobei's surprised expression and smiled, "You heard me right! I came here to see you!"

After receiving repeated confirmation from Gu Yan, Mo Xiaobei was even more flustered.

She stood up, poured herself a glass of water, and gulped half of it!

Gu Yan looked at Mo Xiaobei's embarrassment like this: So, she is still her!

Just when Mo Xiaobei didn't know what to do, Wang Kaiwen called: "Where are you? It's about to start!"

"That... I still have a meeting..." Mo Xiaobei seemed to catch a life-saving straw: "Let's talk later..."

She pointed to the door: "Then you..."

Gu Yan sat motionless, not intending to leave at all. Instead, he flipped through the travel magazine on the table and said casually, "It's okay...you go and do your work...I'll wait for you..."

Mo Xiaobei's jaw dropped from Gu Yan's shock, and he froze in embarrassment: Did he lose his memory?Or am I out of my mind?How can I go back to the days when I bowed my knees in front of him three or four years ago?

Seeing that she was not moving, Gu Yan raised his head and asked, "Aren't you going to a meeting?"

"Um... yes... yes... a meeting..." Mo Xiaobei calmed down, picked up the phone on the table, and walked to the door.

Gu Yan reminded again: "It's cold outside, don't forget your coat."

Mo Xiaobei went back and took his coat and hat...

At the meeting, Mo Xiaobei was absent-minded all the time: How could he act as if nothing happened?How did he do that?But how could he?How can it be as if nothing happened! ! !

Yang Jie sent a text message: Has the gift been received?
Mo Xiaobei asked: What gift?No!No call!
Yang Jie: Didn't see anyone?
Mo Xiaobei suddenly realized at this moment: Don't tell me, it's Gu Yan!

Yang Jie sent a begging and laughing emoji.

Mo Xiaobei said to himself: Yang Jie!You wait for me!Caught me so off guard, dead!He really came to see me?Or by the way?
Yang Jie sent a message: He wants to get back the lost you!
This sentence made Mo Xiaobei's nose sore.

Yang Jie: But, don't forgive him easily!Never!Although...but, you still have to remember to forgive him!He actually misses you very much!
Mo Xiaobei raised his head slightly, not wanting to fill his eyes with tears...

Wang Kaiwen saw that Mo Xiaobei was restless, and asked with concern, "What's wrong with you?"

"Uh...it's okay..." Mo Xiaobei put down his phone.

"Is the one in the snow just now your friend? If you're worried that he's too boring alone, you can call him over. Isn't there a show later?" Wang Kaiwen said.

Mo Xiaobei quickly refused: "No, no, no need..." Fortunately, Wang Kaiwen didn't recognize Gu Yan, otherwise it would be embarrassing and useless!

Wang Kaiwen was about to say something, but fortunately the host called his name, he took a quick look at Mo Xiaobei, and left his seat!
After the meeting, there was a reception, and Mo Xiaobei had a few drinks before leaving in a hurry.

When she returned to the hotel room, her hand stopped again the moment she was about to open the door. She didn't know how to face Gu Yan in front of her.

She paced back and forth in the corridor...

Gu Yan watched Mo Xiaobei's every move through the cat's eyes. Was it his indecision that made Mo Xiaobei hesitate and lose his courage?

He gently opened the door, leaned against the door frame, and asked, "How many laps do you have to walk? Why don't you come in first!"

Mo Xiaobei was terrified: "This... this is my room, okay..." He turned sideways to avoid physical contact, and entered the room.

She poured herself another glass of water, and Gu Yan gently brought her hat.

Mo Xiaobei asked vigilantly, "What are you doing?"

"The room is so well heated, aren't you hot?" Gu Yan took off Mo Xiaobei's hand covering her head, and took off her hat.

Mo Xiaobei stroked his hair nervously, took off his coat and said, "That...it's getting late...I'm going to rest..."

Gu Yan approached her: "I have something to say!"

Holding the cup tightly in his hands, Mo Xiaobei stepped back a little.

Gu Yan looked into Mo Xiaobei's eyes: "Xiaobei, I wonder if it's still too late for you to come back to me!"

Gu Yan's words came too suddenly, and Mo Xiaobei didn't make any mental preparations: Is this a confession?
Mo Xiaobei stammered: "I...I...I don't understand what you're talking about..." After finishing speaking, he wanted to bypass Gu Yan.

Gu Yan blocked her way, took the cup from her hand and put it aside, and took another step forward: "Let's be together!"

Mo Xiaobei, who was forced to lean back against the wall, looked up at Gu Yan who was close at hand.

She saw herself in his eyes, the self who had loved him silently for three years;
The one who thinks of himself whenever the night is quiet;

That one has no position to blame his own.

She withdrew her gaze and focused on this familiar handsome face;

These years of restraint and grievances did not allow her to easily accept his belated confession, how could she forgive him so easily!
She slowly stretched out her hand, gently stroked Gu Yan's face, and said softly, "Gu Yan, have you heard a word?"

Gu Yan thought that Mo Xiaobei's intimate behavior was a feedback to his confession.

He put his arms around Mo Xiaobei's waist, looked down into her eyes and asked softly, "What are you talking about?"

Mo Xiaobei was shocked by Gu Yan's outstanding behavior, this was not the Gu Yan she knew.

The Gu Yan she knew was self-restraint and polite, that's why she dared to touch his face on purpose, but she was teased back by the other party.

Her heart is pounding like a deer, but at the age of 30, she is no longer the beaming 25-year-old Mo Xiaobei she used to be.

She quickly calmed down, responded to Gu Yan's gaze, and said softly, "Belated affection is cheaper than grass!"

Gu Yan's joyful eyes gradually dimmed, he regained his senses and took Mo Xiaobei's hand who had already walked away: "Xiaobei, I know, you know, I love you!"

Mo Xiaobei froze in place, she was in a daze, thinking that she must have heard wrong, three years ago he rejected her, three years later he told her that he loved her!

Yes, she must have heard wrong!
But her heart was pounding violently. He knew that Gu Yan liked her, and his liking was in the details, in actions, not in words.

But is love that cannot be expressed really love?
