Break-up - Chapter 50
Tang Yi is terrifyingly stubborn in certain matters. He doesn’t want to admit that he still puts Gu Yanting in a special position, but it is already the case.
The two met for the first time five years ago, and he would not allow others to bully Gu Yanting. He used the hardships he had experienced in advance as capital to drive away the people around Gu Yanting who had ulterior motives or duplicity. Eighty-eight. The two have been together for five years and have also broken up. When you are good, you must have a strong love and affection, and when you are really angry, you can’t wait to see you die and die. Who knows that after going around in circles, the relationship between the two sides is not very clear now, and he still won’t allow anyone to hurt him in the slightest.
This relationship is much deeper than he once thought.
If it was Shen Fan or Zhou Hao who encountered something today, he would never make the same choice. The wealth he has accumulated in the past few years is not enough for him to spend so much. What’s more, buying all the shares of the company means severing ties with the head office on another level. The more important level here is human feelings.
Shen Fan chose to control the subsidiary by agreement and put most of the shares in the hands of Tang Yi, except that he did not care about this business at the time, more It is also the trust in Tang Yi. Now that Tang Yi makes such a request, it is somewhat ruthless and domineering in comparison.
Of course, Shen Fan, who was in high spirits for the first time two years ago, is different from this Shen Fan who has been immersed in business battles big and small for a long time. Those feelings of distress, excitement and guilt that are above reason have slowly faded away, and he has also learned to weigh the pros and cons rationally, and try to find an optimal balance.
Tang Yi clearly saw the struggle and hesitation in Shen Fan’s eyes. So his eyes sank slightly, and he made another plan in an instant – if Shen Fan did not agree, then he chose to leave er.
His career was the thing he was most proud of, and it was also the place where he was always stronger than Gu Yanting. A more decent job and a higher salary are the basis for him to occupy a dominant position in their lives. Apart from financial satisfaction, it is more to let him enjoy the desire to control in the eyes of Gu Yanting’s admiration and envy. and presence. He couldn’t even tell whether he liked Gu Yanting, or whether he enjoyed the thrill of conquest and control.
However, none of this is comparable today.
He is ready to let go of these things completely, and now all he is waiting for is a judgment from Shen Fan.

The way back is very long. Although it is in the urban area, it still takes a lot of time. By the time we were halfway there, the snow began to thicken. The flakes of snowflakes fluttered under the street lights, fell into the air and were gently lifted by the wind.
Tang Yi took his pocket and walked forward, remembering Gu Yanting’s seven or eight missed calls. So I rubbed my hands together, took out my phone, and called back.
No one answered the call, and hung up automatically after a busy tone. I don’t know if Gu Yanting didn’t see it or was angry, Tang Yi breathed at his hand and put the phone back in his pocket.
When I walked to Jianghuai Road, the number of people finally gradually increased. There was a deicing agent sprinkled by the municipal government on the road in advance, and the speed of the cars going back and forth was not affected. When Tang Yi reached the last intersection, the phone dinged. After he crossed the road, he took it out and took a look. It was a text message from Gu Yanting.
—Did you sleep?
Tang Yi rubbed his hands and gave him a word, “No.”
Almost as soon as it was sent, Gu Yanting came back, “I didn’t sleep either. What are you doing?”
Tang Yirong’s hands are a little stiff, and the temperature of the fingertips is very low, which makes the touch screen not very sensitive. He wanted to fight over, but after a pause, he felt that this scene was extraordinarily familiar. When he and Gu Yanting were just together, it was not convenient to make calls every day. At that time, the call fee was very expensive, and only the couple card and family number on campus were more cost-effective. The two of them don’t have a related number, so they often send all kinds of boring text messages.
Have you eaten?
Didn’t eat, how about you?
Neither.
…
Are you asleep?
Going to bed, how about you?
Me too.
…
Hey, I missed you after not seeing you for a long time.
Huh? It’s alright you, what the wind.
It’s okay.
Go to bed quickly, I miss you too.
Tang Yi raised his head and glanced at it, he was about to arrive at the apartment, so he took two quick steps. After walking for a while, I felt uneasy, stopped again, sighed at my fingers, stretched my right hand from the collar to my neck and pressed it to warm it for a while before I finished the reply.
—coming soon to the apartment. How about you?
—Me too.
Tang Yi smiled, and was stunned when he was about to put away the phone, then clicked it again to take a look. Soon, Gu Yanting sent another message – looking up.
On the avenue in front of several apartment buildings, stood a man wrapped in a black down jacket, with only his head exposed, and a thick layer of snow fell on top of his head. When Tang Yi looked up in amazement, he was quickly gathering his legs and feet, standing at attention in a casual and aloof posture. It’s a pity that the smile on his face is a bit grinning, and he doesn’t have the cool and handsome feeling similar to the Matrix that he tried to express, but he looks like a big stupid man.
Tang Yi put the phone back in his pocket, ran a few steps and shouted, “Why are you here?”
Gu Yanting just laughed. When Tang Yi approached, he realized that he still had a dog in his arms. The puppy was carried in his arms, with only a furry head exposed. Tang Yi didn’t know how to face Gu Yanting for a while, when he saw Xiao Ji hurriedly turned his eyes, reached out and scratched the puppy’s chin with his index finger.
Gu Yanting also reached out and scratched together, scratching and muttering, “I miss you.”
Tang Yi: “…”
The moment she heard that, Tang Yi’s smile froze.
The movement of his hand stopped for a while, and he slowly snorted. The surprise and even a little bit of joy just now disappeared without a trace. After a while, he withdrew his hand and took a step back calmly.
Gu Yanting’s eyes suddenly became complicated.
Tang Yi’s face changed too fast, obviously a big dissatisfaction was written on his face. He moved his mouth and had no choice but to take the dog and go home first.
Tang Yi’s face was always cold. When the two of them took the elevator, Gu Yanting vaguely expressed that he waited downstairs for more than an hour, but he couldn’t let Tang Yi turn his head to look at him. He also failed to mix in a bowl of **** soup that he hated but looked forward to.
In the end, Tang Yi went home and went into the bedroom. He could only rely on himself. He pulled out a piece of **** from the kitchen, frowned and poured out a cup of brown sugar **** water, and then sent it to Tang Yi’s bedside .
Tang Yi was sitting on the bed reading a book, Gu Yanting called out several times, seeing his brows still and looking at the book, he moved two steps uncomfortably in place, and finally couldn’t help pressing his hand On Tang Yi’s book, he sighed and said, “If you don’t want to mention him, don’t mention him. Don’t keep your face cold when I come all the way here.”
“Do I want to mention him, don’t you know?” Tang Yi took off his glasses, threw them aside, and looked at Gu Yanting coldly, “You came over so worried, I hope I What kind of face do I give you?”
Gu Yanting was aggrieved and hesitated, and finally moved his lips and said, “I just don’t worry, you haven’t come back so late, I thought…you and him…”
“Why?” Tang Yi snorted from his nose, “What do you think I did to him?”
“…” Gu Yanting was stunned, blinked again, and then slowly “ah”. His expression was a little complicated, and after a while he suddenly said, “No, I’m afraid he’ll do something to you…”
Tang Yi frowned, feeling that something was not right. He didn’t speak any more, just looked at Gu Yanting who was shocked.
After Gu Yanting swallowed several saliva, he still asked with a frightened expression, “What do you do to him, no, you and Shen Fan… it’s you…” He saw Tang Yi suddenly raised his eyes and looked over, stunned for a moment, raised his hand and said, “Okay, if you don’t mention him, don’t mention him, can you drink the **** soup first.”
“…No,” Tang Yi raised his eyebrows, watching Gu Yanting hand over the small bowl hesitantly, and asked hesitantly, “You listen to Sao Fat… What did you say?”
“It doesn’t matter, that is, Shen Fan is back…I’ll meet you at the hotel.”
Gu Yanting paused when he saw Tang Yi’s movements, and silently shut up. After waiting for Tang Yi to finish drinking, he washed the dishes before wandering back, and said rather unhappily, “But, even if you were on it, I would be jealous.”
In the relationship between Tang Yi and Gu Yanting, who always represented Lin Rui. Tang Yi wasn’t unhappy when he saw Gu Yanting’s sudden appearance today, but when he heard the word “who” was still “worried”, he couldn’t help but feel depressed. So after making a big fuss, he remembered that when Shen Fan called, he didn’t avoid Sao Pang.
Gu Yanting estimated that he heard the keyword “Shen Fan” when he was looking for Sao Fat, and then he opened his mind, made up for a good first love and his ex-boyfriend repented and went back to chase Tang Yi and made an appointment at the hotel Conspiracy plot.
Tang Yi was a little embarrassed after he came to understand, and he was a little dumbfounded. Seeing Gu Yanting standing beside him, obviously still entangled in Shen Fan’s affairs, he couldn’t help but coughed slightly and said seriously.
“Come here.”
Gu Yanting sat down as he said. Tang Yi gave way to the bed again, patted his position just now, “Sit here.”
Gu Yanting’s trouser legs still had water stains after the snow melted, and he never had time to change his clothes after returning to the house. He hesitated for a while and didn’t stand up, when he heard Tang Yi change his mind again, “Forget it, you go take a hot bath and go to get rid of the cold.”
Tang Yi stretched out his foot from under the quilt and kicked Gu Yanting’s ass, raised his chin and gestured to the wardrobe, “Go find your own pajamas to wear.”
Gu Yanting found a pair of pajamas, and at the same time turned out the exact same one for Tang Yi. He wanted to wear a couple’s costume with a naked and direct thought, but when he handed it to Tang Yi, he was not very confident. Tang Yi watched him push the pajamas towards him and push it again. I don’t know if it’s jealous or shocked, the colorful face still hasn’t calmed down, only a pair of eyes are full of various emotions.
For a moment, Tang Yi suddenly had the urge to turn into a beast.
Gu Yanting changed into pajamas after taking a shower, and while rubbing his hair out, he looked up and saw Tang Yi who was already sitting on the sofa. Tang Yi also changed into the set of pajamas he took out, and his skin became whiter and more delicate under the velvet fabric. It’s just that he didn’t read a book at the moment, but switched to a TV station every now and then.
Gu Yanting’s eyes stopped on him for a moment, then came over and sat next to him, a little surprised, “Why are you here?”
The heating in the apartment is not very hot, so the air conditioner is also turned on in the bedroom, which is much warmer and more comfortable than the living room.
Tang Yi’s facial features softened a lot under the light, he put the remote control aside, lowered his eyes and pondered for a while, then looked at Gu Yanting and said, “I have something to tell you. “
“What?”
“I want to buy the remaining shares of T city company, and I will have nothing to do with er in the future.” Tang Yi smiled and sighed again.
He actually wanted to tell Gu Yanting everything about the current situation. He didn’t want the latter to be kept in the dark, but he couldn’t help but hesitate a little – what if Shen Fan thought too much? ? What if Zhou Zhou Dongzhuan didn’t care about this? What if that part of the past is not brought up?
Do you hide it from Gu Yanting, or tell him at the risk? Can he accept it? Will it be hit? What will happen if you take care of your father and take care of your mother?
He thought about it for a long time and had no clue, so he could only pick up this part of himself and say it first.
Gu Yanting was stunned for a moment, then looked at Tang Yi with wide eyes in disbelief, “Are you crazy? How much does this cost? Isn’t it good for you now?”
Tang Yi did not speak.
“You really want to do this??” Gu Yanting stretched out his hand and touched Tang Yi’s head in confusion, a little confused. Tang Yi gave him a cool look, and he took it back.
After a while, he suddenly stood up again and walked quickly to the bedroom. After a while, he took out a mobile phone, and rummaged through the drawer under the TV cabinet. He found a piece of paper and Pen.
Tang Yi was stunned for a while, and when he looked back, he saw that he was a little puzzled, “What are you doing?”
Gu Yanting said, “Calculate how much money I have.”
“…”
“You shouldn’t have enough money, right?” Gu Yanting looked back at him and said, “Isn’t it? Is it? I calculate how much I have in total.”
Tang Yi glanced at him silently, thought for a moment and felt that something was wrong, and asked him strangely, “Why don’t you ask me?”
Gu Yanting was busy checking the balance of his bank card. Hearing this, he turned his head and asked, “Why?”
“No why.”
“Oh.” Gu Yanting turned around, then turned back after a while, looking at Tang Yi with a pen in his mouth and grinning, “I know what you mean. No matter why, you must have done this. Why would I stop you?”
Tang Yi leaned against the corner of the sofa with his legs bent, one hand on his forehead, and was watching him settle accounts from a distance.
The predicament, the cooperation with Kaiser is purely at a loss, and even the project of the educational institution and the relationship network that we have acquired in half a year have been handed over to them.”
As long as cooperation always requires sacrifice, Tang Yi has never talked to others, and outsiders are quite envious of them watching their difficult times. How dangerous is it to be introduced into the alliance of interests that he has finally formed. Of course, the old man who looks at Kai Sheng is always a kind person, but after Tang Yi experienced what happened to Yan Ke, he no longer has so much confidence in his ability to look at people.
Gu Yanting really didn’t care, and even said indifferently, “It doesn’t matter, it’s a big deal to start all over again.”
Tang Yi was speechless again, and finally sighed, “…You think too simple.”
He didn’t know if Gu Yanting didn’t think badly at all at this moment, or if he really didn’t care about the little fortune he had accumulated over the years. Although in his opinion it is mostly the former. Perhaps Gu Yanting had a blind trust in him, so he felt that this matter was no big deal other than madness.
Tang Yi frowned, and the next second, he felt a heavy weight between his eyebrows, Gu Yanting’s palm had already covered his eyebrows, he pressed it lightly at first, and then changed it again. It became a thumb and rubbed carefully. His whole body also turned to his side, with the other arm propped on the other side of Tang Yi, and his upper body leaning slightly.
“I know you’re worried, and I know there are risks involved. But what can you do without risk? Always try.” Gu Yanting’s voice was light and firm, like Talking about a long-thought-about thing, “Anyway, my money is also yours. If you lose everything, you can earn more, but I don’t want you to regret it.”
He said it very naturally, without any sensational expressions. Tang Yi felt a sharp sting in his heart, and then he was tightly wrapped by a soft emotion, and with the movements of Gu Yanting between his eyebrows, he regained his calm.
He slowly opened his eyebrows, and after Gu Yanting’s movements relaxed, he closed his eyes and asked suddenly, “Yanting, talk about your work for the past two years, I haven’t listened to you yet. said.”
—
Gu Yanting’s experience in the past two years is slightly legendary, but when he tells it in detail, Tang Yi realizes that what Shen Fan said about Gu Yanting is not very capable and that it is not this face that resembles Zhou Hao. There is no chance at all, and it is just a subjective assumption.
Gu Yanting obviously noticed that Tang Yi had something on his mind, so he skipped the part where he followed his cousin to Hunan, and the first days in Guangzhou were only selected. speak. He said that he didn’t understand the rules at first, and he was rash and reckless. He omitted the details of being scolded by drinking and insulted. He also talked about the first list of his bravery and martial arts. To the ugly under the table.
In the beginning, he was too desperate, and even had a tendency to self-abuse. At that time, he hated Tang Yi in his heart, and he used all kinds of complex emotions of resentment and regret in his work. But when he really faced Tang Yi, he couldn’t tell, he just talked about his magical encounter with Huayuan.
At that time, Huayuan was still their customer, and Gu Yanting was taken by the company leaders at that time to accompany a female boss of Huayuan to drink. The female boss was very interested in him at the time, asked a lot of personal questions, and then asked him to meet again in Huayuan two days later.
He later learned that the female boss was poached by Hua Yuan from another fund company. But he didn’t understand it at the time, he just went to the appointment based on courtesy to the client, and then the female boss asked him a very simple question.
At that time, Huayuan invested in an Internet company, and the female boss jokingly asked Gu Yanting if the Internet company launched a second round of financing, whether Gu Yanting would join in the investment.
At that time, Gu Yanting had forgotten the few economic theories he studied in college. He sincerely apologized, saying that he did not understand it at all. The female boss smiled and said, just assuming, like assuming you won a five million lottery, why are you nervous. Let you follow your intuition, you can’t follow.
Gu Yanting immediately smiled and said that if he had enough money, he would follow.
The female boss nodded, and after chatting for a while, she asked him what he would consider if there were more than one investor in this company.
Gu Yanting couldn’t even take a sip of water during that meeting. The female boss’s question was strange and irrelevant, and he only asked him to answer according to his intuition.
After the meeting, Gu Yanting successfully signed the contract with Hua Yuan, and then was dug by Hua Yuan a week later.
Tang Yi didn’t quite understand what happened next, but he understood. Gu Yanting’s job now is to find and submit cases. Huayuan already has some elderly people in the venture capital industry. Some people have a detached status in Huayuan, but Gu Yanting is too young to attract a lot of speculation.
Even if he was born with a certain talent, he never stopped learning during this period. However, even so, the final decision on whether the case he is optimistic about can be selected is still the industry report and project analysis of the professionals in the team.
At present, the sentiment in the capital market is not high, and the cycle of getting paid after the project is really successful is too long, at least two or three years. Hua Yuan has a lot of money, so he is never stingy in their salaries. Although Gu Yanting’s income is high, it is not exaggerated in the whole department.
Tang Yi heaved a sigh of relief when he heard the back, so it seems that Gu Yanting does have a business sense that is different from ordinary people, maybe he has inherited some genes from the Zhou family. Fortunately, What he is doing now is not exactly the same as Zhou Hao.
He remembered Shen Fan’s speculation, hesitated and asked, “Your current acquisition of the technology company has something to do with you?”
Gu Yanting shook his head and said with a smile, “No, I just came up with a bad idea by chance, and was borrowed by them as labor.”
Tang Yi looked at him, “What happened?”
“I went back last time,” Gu Yanting’s mouth curled up, “Zhou Dongchuan is too despicable to use you as a gunman. But my idea is useless, their relationship is much more complicated, I’m just joining in the fun.”
Tang Yi opened his mouth, but he didn’t know what to say for a while, so he could only laugh and joke about his encounter at the time: “You are also very capable, you can scare people the first time you meet .”
“No,” Gu Yanting hesitated and said slowly, “I’m not bluffing her, I’m really optimistic about that company.”
Tang Yi froze for a moment.
“At that time, when I was just graduating, I also wanted to start a company like that. So I checked a lot of information, I have confidence in them, and I sincerely hope that they can do well.”
The snowflakes outside the window are getting bigger and bigger. Tang Yi banged in his head, and a lot of consciousness and words seemed to be blown away into the distance.
When they just graduated, Gu Yanting wanted to start a business like he was going crazy. Gu’s father put together hundreds of thousands of dollars. When he stopped halfway, Gu Yanting’s eyes were red with anxiety, and finally Gu Yanting was forced to give up , wearing a straight suit and carrying his “kindness” to the advertising company to report…
And for a long time after that, the desire and helpless compromise showed in those eyes.
He suddenly didn’t dare to think, what kind of emotion Gu Yanting felt when he saw that the company he wanted to do had been realized by others.
Tang Yi often asks himself, does Gu Yanting love me?
The answer in his heart is no love.
He thought it was a one-way love. So his sacrifice is love, and Gu Yanting’s concession is a matter of course.
He never even thought about giving Gu Yanting a chance like Gu Yanting told him today.
—”You can make more money if you lose everything, but I don’t want you to regret it.”
Tang Yi’s consciousness slowly returned, Gu Yanting was looking at him with some worry, seeing him raised his eyes slightly, moved his lips and did not speak.
Tang Yi’s eyes gradually became clear, and even a little smile appeared on his face. He leaned forward, reached out and grabbed one of Gu Yanting’s hands to play with.
“Sorry.”
Gu Yanting was a little confused, “Huh?” He quickly understood and said with a smile, “It’s nothing, I probably wouldn’t be able to do it if I did it at the time.”
“You weren’t happy at that advertising company, were you?”
“Fine.”
“Have you ever regretted it, or blamed me?” Tang Yi tilted his head and looked at him seriously, “I may have blocked your path to success.”
“No.” Gu Yanting was slightly surprised, and while answering, he covered Tang Yi’s bare foot with the palm of his hand and pulled it into his arms.
“Gu Yanting,” Tang Yi let him move, and when there was a warm touch on the instep, he asked in a low voice, “Have you ever treated Lin Rui like this?”
“…” Gu Yanting glanced at him and shook his head, “No.”
“Is more important or your career?”
“You.”
“Is more important or Lin Rui?”
Gu Yanting said all kinds of promises more than once, but Tang Yi never heard it in his heart. He preconceived and sentenced him to death, and never thought about the possibility of Gu Yanting’s repentance. Perhaps the impact he received today was too great, and the emotions in his heart were too complicated.
He asked the questions and grievances in his heart so directly without warning.
The tone is still a little stuffy, and there are some inexplicable grievances.
Gu Yanting didn’t speak this time, Tang Yi kept looking at his pajamas after asking. Time stagnated for a moment, and then he heard Gu Yanting’s slow and serious answer.
“I used to like him, whether it was gratitude, admiration, or even unwillingness. But it’s not love, and he can’t compare with you. I have done and missed some things, but even if At that time, I didn’t even think about comparing him with you. When he pursued Shen Fan, I also contributed and sincerely blessed him. I didn’t feel sad about who he was with and what he did. “
“But you are different, Tang Yi, I heard today that Shen Fan came back to find you and went crazy. When I came, the plane was bumped a few times, and when other people’s faces turned pale, I was full of I only think that I must see you. I can’t imagine the scene where you are with any man. I’m jealous when you laugh at them. In the past two years, I have had several unsatisfactory self-abuses, and there have been Once you die, you will be waiting for your regrets. You will even cry when you think of you when you are useless for a while. I understand that it is too late to understand love, but I never thought about sharing it with others.”
“I don’t dare to come back, I’m just afraid that I can’t help pestering you, but I’m not worthy of you.”
“…” Tang Yi reached out to Gu Yanting’s face at some point, and his whole person was a little dazed. It was not the first time he heard these words, but it was the first time he began to believe. Then, he seemed to have seen countless blank and sad faces of Gu Yanting in the dark in the past two years.
He didn’t speak anymore, his eyes sank slightly, and he focused on the movements of his hands. The fingers slowly slid down Gu Yanting’s forehead, touched the bridge of his straight nose, and finally landed on the corner of his lips.
“You know what? I like you here.” Tang Yi said softly, leaning forward slowly. He stopped when their noses were almost touching.
“Kiss me.”
