rebirth retreat

Chapter 49

The afterglow of the setting sun dyed the clouds in the sky red. Gu Liuguang, carrying a backpack and guitar, dragged his exhausted body, and finally returned to the dormitory.

He opened the door and unloaded the things on his back. He sat on the chair and quietly stared at the guitar in front of him.

This guitar was given to him a long time ago, when he was still studying in school, a senior in the band who left school with a terminal illness gave him.It has accompanied him through many long and difficult years. Without it, he would not have successfully brought Ning Ning to survive in this city, nor would he have accepted that drama by chance and met that person .

Lightly flicking with ten fingers, the clear and mellow piano sound came out from the fingertips. The tone was the same as before, without any change.

If Ning Ning's picture album contains the memories between the two brothers and sisters, then this guitar is full of his and Yan Dongting's past.

There is probably only one person in this world who will shield him from the wind and rain and bear all the dangers for him who regards this broken guitar as a treasure, right?What was going on in that person's mind at that time?

Do you think that if you block the danger, he will allow him to approach?

Gu Liuguang smiled wryly.That person did succeed. The moment he heard the glass shatter, he completely let go of all his defenses and accepted his approach.No, maybe as early as when that person came to see his show every night, he had already acquiesced in his existence.

That was his fan, the only fan.

"Knock, knock." There was a knock on the door, Gu Liuguang put away his thoughts and raised his head.

Outside the door, Li Lei and others walked in.

"You're finally back." Li Lei said, "Why did you rush out this morning? Are you okay?"

"It's okay." Gu Liuguang said.

Zhou Yi leaned forward and looked at the guitar in his hand curiously: "Where did this guitar come from? It looks very good!" As he said, he stretched out his hand to touch it, and Gu Liuguang hurriedly hugged the guitar and looked back. Lean on.

"Don't touch it," he said.Don't touch it, it's his.

Zhou Yi retracted his hand embarrassingly, and changed the subject with a dry smile: "By the way, when did you learn to play the guitar?"

Zhang Hua lay on Li Lei's shoulders, his eyes were shining and he said: "I feel that Ade is becoming more and more like a male god in a girl's mouth now! Isn't it Li Lei!"

Gu Liuguang caressed the body of the piano, looked up at the three friends standing in front of him, and said suddenly:

"Want to hear me sing?"

The three of them were delighted, and nodded immediately: "Okay, okay, you sing!"

Gu Liuguang smiled and said, "Maybe he didn't sing very well."

Zhou Yi quickly waved his hands and said, "It's okay, we love to hear whatever you sing!"

Zhang Hua rolled his eyes and suggested, "Ade, how about we find a bigger stage and have a special performance?"

Gu Liuguang said: "Yes, no problem."

"Haha!" The three people clapped each other's hands and shouted, "The concert is on!"

After dinner, Gu Liuguang came to the busiest small garden on campus, surrounded by the three of Li Lei, with his guitar on his back.

Zhang Hua said: "Is it right here?"

Gu Liuguang responded, took off his guitar, and sat down by the flower bed.Holding the guitar in his arms, he first tuned it, and then asked, "What do you want to hear?"

Li Lei said, "You are good at playing."

Gu Liuguang smiled: "I am good at a lot."

Zhou Yi asked: "Then what style do you know how to play?"

Gu Liuguang said: "Folk, pop, rock, everything is fine."

The three people in front of them were completely shocked. Looking at Gu Liuguang, they murmured: "Ade, you are really amazing, you really deserve to be the new promotion grass of our department..."

Li Lei coughed twice: "Then, let's play something soothing."

Gu Liuguang smiled and said, "Okay."

The three of them sat cross-legged on the grass, shoulders hooked to each other, quietly listening to the person sitting in front of them playing and singing.

Flick your fingers, pluck the strings, and the touching music surrounds the grassland, gradually drifting into the distance.

"do you remember,

summer of memory,

What is scattered in the wind has evaporated,

喧哗 的 都 已 沙哑

......"

Gu De's voice was originally full of vigor, but at the moment Gu Liuguang sang with a lower voice, it sounded a bit bleak, which made people feel inexplicably sad.

"...

because I'll think of you,

I'm afraid to face myself,

my will,

总 被 寂寞 吞食

......"

Gradually, people passing by and not passing by gathered around one after another, stood behind Li Lei, Zhou Yi and others, and enjoyed the performance with them fascinatedly.

"If I never loved you,

I won't lose myself,

The thorn of missing,

pin my position,

because you always remind,

Although I get the world,

Some happiness...is not mine...""

Gu Liuguang squinted his eyes slightly as he played and sang, looking at the audience gathered in front of him under the street lamp, he was a little lost.

No one would sit far away in a corner, staring at him quietly, appreciating every song he played.

Is it really so hateful, so unforgivable?It's just that he can't forget the original beauty in his heart.Those fragments, those joys, are his nightmares, and also his sustenance for surviving.

For seven years, he kept asking himself in his heart, what is real?What else can you believe?Do people always like to deceive themselves?He obviously wanted to get close, but why did he keep choosing to flee in a panic?

Suddenly, there was the sound of fireworks blooming in the sky, and the colorful lights were alternately projected on the young faces.

At the end of the song, everyone came back to their senses and applauded vigorously.

"I didn't expect you to sing so beautifully, Ade!" Zhou Yi praised wildly, his hands hurt from clapping.

"One more song!" Someone around shouted.

"Let's have a good time!"

"Rock!"

"Will Hotel California!"

Gu Liuguang was stunned for a moment, and he said, "Then..."Hotel California"."

While beating on the body of the piano, he plucked the strings and played a classic "Hotel California" slowly.

This song was taught to him by that person before all the tragedies happened.

The sigh is buried in the song.At this moment, he realized that in fact, he had no escape route, and every bit of that person was like poison, deeply embedded in his soul, completely sealing him off.

Oh, is it too pitiful?Who is pity whom?

In the towering Dongtian Building, a bright light was shining alone.

Yan Dongting was sitting on the sofa, making phone calls one after another. The neon lights of the city came in from the window, rendering his handsome and pale face.

"...Well, Dongtian and I are fine..." he said, "I let my kid go out and be independent, please help me take care of him..."

"No matter how reluctant, he will grow up." Rubbing the name with his fingertips, he whispered.

"...The play I talked to you about last time, keep it for him, let him learn how to be a producer..."

"For my sake, don't embarrass him too much..." The corners of his mouth curled up slightly, "Well, he is more obedient now than before...Yeah, don't worry, that's why I let him go out and do it by himself..."

"...If you stay in Dongtian, there won't be much development. I look forward to the day when he can become my opponent..."

"Shi Qian, the thing you mentioned to me... Well, it's okay..." Standing up, he came to the French window, leaned on the window, and looked at a certain direction in the city, with deep nostalgia in his eyes , "You are a senior, teach him a little more... I am grateful..."

"...How is your preparation for the new movie? He will make a successful transformation, I have confidence in him..."

Suddenly, brilliant fireworks bloomed silently in the distance, reflecting each other with the lights of the city, and the beauty was intoxicating.In a trance, he seemed to be able to see those eyes that were always shining from such a beautiful scenery.

After finishing all the calls, Yan Dongting put down the hot phone in his hand and let out a long breath.

Finally, he is the only one left in this world. Perhaps, he is not worthy of any feelings in this life.

As is love, so is love.

Forget it, I've already let go, what are you still thinking about?

However, I still can't help but want to hug him and call his name, what should I do?

As night fell, Goode and Tang Qian stood side by side on the balcony, drinking wine while enjoying the first time they spent together alone after being discharged from the hospital.

The cold wind blew gently, and looking at the dim city in the distance, Gude shook the empty soda can in his hand, and suddenly asked: "You will come today, is President Yan asking you?"

Tang Qian turned his head to look at him, and said with a smile, "What do you think?"

"He called me to the company today, asked me to sign a contract termination agreement, and told me a lot." Goode said, "Although he didn't say something clearly, I know that he asked me to leave because he planned to let me go. A company will become stronger together with Liuguang."

"En." Tang Qian responded lightly.

"At the time I told him I couldn't, and he said you were here." Good said.

"En." Tang Qian replied again.

"When did he ask you?" Goode looked at him and asked.

"Before any of this happened."

Good paused and said, "So he already knew that I'm not Gu Liuguang, didn't he?"

"Yes." Tang Qian replied.

"He knew everything and arranged everything, but in the end he let go." Goode's voice lowered.

Tang Qian was silent and did not speak.

"Did you find out what happened seven years ago?" Goode asked again.

"Not yet, I guess we'll have to wait a while longer." Tang Qian sighed.

"If possible, I hope that both of them can live happily." Goode said in a shy voice, "There will be no more pain and suffering."

Tang Qian raised his hand and rubbed Gude's hair silently.

"Tang Qian, please return that amulet to me." Gude said.The last time he bet with Tang Qian in the hospital, the amulet was confiscated by Tang Qian as a trophy after he lost.Thinking of everything Yan Dongting had done for "Gu Liuguang" and Gu Liuguang's deep concern for Yan Dongting, he felt that maybe he could help them with a small matter within his power.

Tang Qian asked, "What do you want to do?"

Goode said: "I want to meet Liu Guang tomorrow, tell him about the termination of the contract, and hand over the amulet to him by the way."

Tang Qian said, "Okay, I'll accompany you."

Suddenly, someone set off fireworks in the distance.The colorful fireworks exploded in the sky, and together with the sky illuminated red by the lights, the city was embellished with more brilliance.

Will tomorrow really get better?
