boss, i mean it

Chapter 44 Sophie's Choice

Jumping back to the computer, Yu Cheng sorted out a collection of videos, web documents and e-books, packaged them up and uploaded them to the cloud, and shared them with Gu Tianjiao.After ten o'clock in the evening, I received Gu Tianjiao's WeChat message.

He said, "Aaron, thank you."

Yu Cheng was overjoyed: "Is it powerful?"

Gu Tianjiao smiled back and said, "See you tomorrow!"

Yu Cheng held his mobile phone, not understanding what Gu Tianjiao meant by being ambiguous.Originally, he was very excited and wanted to say a lot of things to Gu Tianjiao, but he couldn't make out those words through phone calls or text messages.And this night, Gu Tianjiao obviously needed a space to be alone, so he didn't have a chance to inquire about it face to face.

Early the next morning, Gu Tianjiao, wearing deep dark circles, drove Tingting to send Yu Cheng to work the whole way.The little girl is here, and the two of them can't say anything.Yu Cheng didn't wake up until he got off the car and saw the car driving in the opposite direction as usual: Gu Tianjiao was still in the trouble of choosing.

But Yu Cheng still didn't understand.Why "choose"?Based on the authoritative investigation reports he shared, and Gu Tianjiao's eloquence skills, Tingting's mother was knocked down in minutes!

Or is Tingting's mother actually very good?

Oh...that's right, in China, there are many reasons for family breakups. Mostly, it's because the husband and wife look at each other and vomit, more than one party overturns the wall, and even perform martial arts every day at home.Like Tingting's mother, because her husband "only cares but not loves", she doesn't want her daughter to divorce decisively, she is really not an ordinary person!

Yu Cheng frowned, what should he do?

At ten o'clock in the evening, Yu Cheng finished his shift and left the company. When he looked up, he saw Gu Tianjiao's car waiting for him in the parking lot as usual.

Yu Cheng got into the passenger seat: "Is the little girl asleep?"

Gu Tianjiao crossed the car, smiled and said yes, Yu Cheng asked again: "Did you take her to play for a day on vacation?"

Gu Tianjiao said again, Yu Cheng was puzzled, but Gu Tianjiao seemed to be okay, and asked him with a smile: "How did you go today?"

Yu Chengzhi burst into laughter: "Oh, I'm really scared to death!"

Gu Tianjiao: "How to say?"

Yu Cheng: "In our training, when Sa Yinghua and all the bosses didn't show up, the head teacher became the king of the mountain. This head teacher, I have never met such a fierce guy! Whenever she has a chance, she treats all of us. Conducting personal attacks. Scolding us for not seeking to make progress, pig brains, if we continue like this, we will all be fired and recruited again! And she did what she said, today there were three fires on the spot, one of which was our squad leader."

Gu Tianjiao: "Why?"

Yu Cheng: "There are heroes from all walks of life in our class, and many of them are the bosses of the small team. Like the small steel cannons, they used to train people. They can't bear it. Now they are tortured to death by work every day. After a little bit, they will definitely have to I was scolded by a person who didn't know where I came from as a grandson. The class teacher was in a good mood today, and he criticized us three times. The class leader couldn't hold back, and took two team leaders to discuss the issue of "humanized management" with her. How did you know? She turned around and fired all three of them! The reason was, 'there is a problem with values, and differences of opinion do not conspire with each other'."

Gu Tianjiao: "So, did Xiaogangpao rebel?"

Yu Cheng laughed: "The little steel cannon has become a squib, and I'm so depressed ~ I see the head teacher with a black face, but he dare not say anything. After all, he is a real knife, and he can strike neatly."

Gu Tianjiao glanced back at him: "You don't feel anything?"

Yu Cheng shook his head: "Don't you say it, human weakness or something. The head teacher has been in this company for eight years, and he has already figured out which rights can be used and how to use them. And after half a month, he has been in charge. Now that I have become Sa Yinghua's father-in-law, I don't dare to take my job against her authority. I'll just abuse her, anyway..."

Yu Cheng talked about work, but he really hoped that Gu Tianjiao could interrupt him and talk about his countermeasures for the troubles ahead.

But Gu Tianjiao didn't, he sprayed all the way, Gu Tianjiao just smiled and listened all the way.In the evening, I took Yu Cheng to stay at his house, and still didn't say or do anything, just hugged him quietly.Yu Cheng felt the weight of the figure beside his pillow, he hesitated for a long time, and didn't dare to ask.

On Tuesday, Gu Tianjiao still sent him to work on time, then accompanied Tingting all day, and picked him up at night.

It's been like this for a week.

On Friday night, Gu Tianjiao put the quilt on Yu Cheng, folded his hands behind his head, lay flat on the bed and stared at the ceiling in a daze.Yu Cheng turned over, and he turned to look at him for a while.Yu Cheng pretended he couldn't sleep anymore, so he simply got up: "Brother, what is Tingting's mother?"

Gu Tianjiao: "Huh?"

Yu Cheng: "Educational background, personality, we can take her down only by knowing ourselves and the enemy, right?"

Gu Tianjiao smiled: "She graduated from Zhejiang University in International Trade and Economics, with a minor in German and a double degree."

Yu Cheng was taken aback: "Wow..."

Gu Tianjiao: "Personality, in most cases is very rational. You are very assertive, and you can listen to other people's words, provided that your point of view is very convincing." He smiled, "How do you plan to 'take'?"

Yu Cheng moved into his arms: "I definitely can't show up. I'm going to make trouble for you two! But since she is a highly educated intellectual, I believe she must be more open-minded and reasonable than others..."

Gu Tianjiao was still smiling and silent, Yu Cheng stood up, his eyes brightened, shook him and said: "Brother, brother, brother! Smiling and not saying a word can't solve the problem, why don't we use the sales method to play a roleplay? I Be you, be her!"

Gu Tianjiao finally laughed and played with him: "Okay. I can't leave Tingting to you, you two are gay, it's not good for her growth."

Yu Cheng: "...Let's get straight to the topic? Well then—who said homosexuals can't raise children? There are 600 million people in the United States, of which [-] million are raised by gay families. They also grow up healthily, it should be right Bend, it will not be affected at all!"

Gu Tianjiao: "Are you sure those who are bent are not misled by their parents?"

Yu Cheng: "Misleading! Aren't we also raised by heterosexuals? We have heard stories about princesses and princes since we were young, and we have been surrounded by a large group of heterosexuals? But when we wake up, don't we still yell at the same sex!"

Gu Tianjiao's eyebrows twitched slightly: "You only want to laugh when you see the same sex?"

Yu Chengyi was embarrassed: "Of course not, it needs to be good-looking! The love of beauty... No, let's not fight each other first, shall we?"

Gu Tianjiao gave up with a smile, and switched back to the identity of Tingting's mother: "Even if what you said makes sense, a child needs a balance of father's love and mother's love from the family. If you have a relationship like this, even if both of you treat her well, that's at best. Twice the father's love, lack of mother's love, or uneven nutrition!"

Yu Cheng: "Please, we are both divorced, and her mother's love has been missing for several years! Isn't it good?"

Gu Tianjiao: "..."

Yu Cheng observes his words and looks: "It is a simple and crude way to divide the family by 'mother's love and father's love'. What children want is enough care, no matter what love you have! A happy baby in a single-parent family who was loved by his parents , there are many! Even if I find her a new mother, they may not love her, what if I bully her when I'm not around?"

Gu Tianjiao: "...how do you know?"

Yu Cheng chuckled: "Because my current lover, Comrade Yu Cheng has a deep understanding. Comrade Yu Cheng understands the thoughts of a single parent baby, and will definitely take good care of her with me. And you want to take her to your new home. Are you sure your husband No problem? Your second child is still a baby, so you have worked hard too!"

Gu Tianjiao stopped talking, and looked at Yu Cheng for a while: "Your house... Forget it, the housework is becoming more and more chaotic. I almost understand what you mean, so let's do it!"

Yu Cheng felt that Gu Tianjiao's half of the bed seemed to be a little lighter, he was satisfied with the work, and fell asleep relaxed.

Early the next morning, Gu Tianjiao picked Tingting up from the bed, woke her up softly, put on all the clothes and socks for her, and then watched over her, watching her slowly finish her breakfast.When it was over, she smiled at Yu Cheng: "I have an appointment with her mother at ten o'clock, you take her to your place to play for a while, and I will find you after the talk."

Yu Cheng led the little girl back to his residence.

As soon as we entered the door, it started to rain patter outside.Tingting is a sensitive girl, as long as she finds that the aura of an adult is not right, she will not speak.Xiao Xiaoyi slumped on the sofa, rubbing its hair with dried plums in its arms, staring at the rain curtain outside the floor-to-ceiling windows in a daze.

Yu Cheng accompanied her, and the elephant also sat down when he saw that something was wrong.In the low air pressure, everyone hummed a few words without saying a word, and Yu Cheng became more and more uncertain.

It was almost eleven o'clock, but Gu Tianjiao still hadn't moved.Yu Cheng couldn't sit still anymore, so he threw the girl to the elephant, and went back to Building Twelve after going out.

With rain dripping all over his body, he took the key to open the door of Gu Tianjiao's house, and when he entered the living room, he saw the two sitting on the corner sofa, each sitting in their respective positions in silence.There was a large spread of colored paper on the coffee table, all of which were various research materials and news topics he had given to Gu Tianjiao.

But the paper full of data, cases and conclusions on the table was not as eye-catching as the two A4 papers in front of Tingting's mother.

Seeing him, Gu Tianjiao was surprised and asked him to sit. Yu Cheng hesitated for a moment, and sat next to Tingting's mother.

Tingting's mother looked back, smiled tiredly, and asked, "Is Tingting with you?"

Yu Cheng: "Yes."

Tingting's mother: "Since you are here, you are also the 'big winner' chosen by Lao Gu. Now this matter has something to do with you. I plan to sign a private agreement with Lao Gu. Listen to it."

She picked up a pen, and wrote on the blank space of the "Custody Change Agreement" in front of her: "After negotiation between the two parties, I will raise Tingting to adulthood from December 12, X year. During this period, Gu Tianjiao will take care of her every month Pay Tingting 29 yuan as alimony, paid annually. From now on, Gu Tianjiao will have a chance to visit once a month. During the visit, the two of you—" She raised her eyes, indicating that "the two of you" refers to Yu Cheng and Gu Tianjiao, "In front of Tingting, you can't have too intimate words and deeds. Otherwise, no matter whether the law recognizes it or not, I will never let Lao Gu see her again. OK?"

Yu Cheng was stunned by the two key words of "big winner" she said earlier and "absolutely not" in the agreement: "Wh...what...you talk for a long time, or do you want to take her away?"

Gu Tianjiao raised his hands and rubbed his face, but didn't say anything.Yu Cheng looked back at Tingting's mother: "Sister, it's not OK!"

Tingting's mother smiled: "No? Is it okay for me to raise my own daughter, or is it okay for you not to have close contact when Lao Gu visits her in the future?"

Yu Cheng was in a hurry: "No, sister, what..."

He contemplated for a week, and the night before, he did a scenario drill with Gu Tianjiao.Originally determined to win and not lose, before the battle, he actually said: "What, we won't, we won't... She, I like her, the child, we, there is nothing wrong... I understand too, she, Will not!"

Tingting's mother: "..."

Yu Cheng was speechless to himself.Gu Tianjiao looked over and comforted him with his eyes.

Tingting's mother was silent for a long time: "That's it? Hehe, if you want to say what Lao Gu told me, I'll ask you, does the scientific data say that you will not affect her [-]%?"

Yu Cheng was taken aback: "But, there will be no research..."

Tingting's mother: "It won't be [-]%, right? There is always an influence. Even if the influence is one in a billion, I can't guarantee that my child is not that one in a billion, and I can't use her whole life to verify Your scientific data."

Yu Cheng's chest was tight, and Tingting's mother continued: "If what you want to say is that you will not be too intimate in front of my daughter during the monthly visits in the future, then I thank you. But I will ask her. If she can say something like 'sleeping together' then I'm sorry."

Yu Chengkuang shook his head: "Don't sleep, don't sleep... I don't have to show up... But, that's not the problem!"

Tingting's mother looked at him and smiled: "That's not the problem, how about adding an additional agreement according to the original custody rights: Gu Tianjiao will no longer live with you, or any same-sex couple? Is it possible?"

Yu Cheng stayed still, looking at Gu Tianjiao in a daze, Gu Tianjiao smiled and said, "This is not possible."

Tingting's mother looked at both sides, and leaned on the back of the sofa: "This is not good, that is not good, then what are we talking about? Lao Gu, we have been married for several years... I originally thought that the separation between us is our business." Son. At the time of divorce, you said that I was a woman with a child, and I would have a hard time in the future. I was very grateful to you-you are a nice person, and I am relieved to leave Tingting to you. But who made you choose such a choice? How about the road? Tingting is a child, her parents divorced, she is already very innocent and wronged. Do you insist that when she grows up, she can't tell how a normal person should live, or do you want her to be poked in the back in the future?"

She actually said "normal person", whether it was intentional or not, Yu Cheng couldn't say a word.

Gu Tianjiao silently took the pen and paper from Tingting's mother, Yu Cheng threw himself on the coffee table and grabbed his hand: "Brother, don't give up! We, we can make her live happily at home," he looked back at Tingting. Mother Ting, "We will also tell her, don't look at the outside world. No matter what aspect other people's gossip is about, it has no good influence on a person. She, she will build her own independent thinking ability."

Tingting's mother: "Really? I assume that what you said is true, so I ask you a question: How do you ensure that your so-called family relationship can be stable?"

Yu Cheng was stunned.

Tingting's mother: "Heterosexual families have marriage laws and moral values, and they break up more than 1 times a day. What about you, you have nothing. I heard that homosexuals can have sex if they look at each other, and break up if they are unhappy. How can you guarantee that my child doesn't grow up in a worse family where the father frequently changes same-sex partners?" She smiled, "Use 'love'? How long can your love last?"

Yu Cheng and Gu Tianjiao looked at each other, they had nothing to say.

Tingting's mother looked at her watch: "Lao Gu, just sign if there is no problem! I will take Tingting over, and I will have to work overtime later."

Yu Cheng was full of annoyance, seeing Gu Tianjiao signed and pressed his handprint, and it was Tingting's mother who signed and pressed the seal.

Gu Tianjiao took the paper from Tingting's mother and said, "Then, can the girl's household registration not be moved?"

Tingting's mother: "What if she wants to go to school?"

Gu Tianjiao: "No matter what she wants to do, as long as it involves running errands such as household registration, you can just tell me. Let me keep it in mind."

Tingting's mother thought for a long time: "Let's talk about it!"

Tingting's mother left in a hurry, and the three of them went to Yu Cheng's residence together.Unexpectedly, Lao Gao also came during this gap.Tingting's mother came in and glanced around, Yu Cheng was glad that she spent a little money to block the shelf, but she looked at the elephant and Lao Gao who were with Tingting, and then looked back at Gu Tianjiao.That look was very clear: "It's right for me to take her away."

Tingting's mother waved to the child: "Tingting, will you go home with mom? Say goodbye to dad!"

Tingting raised her dark eyes, looked at the adults present in turn, and said to the half-grown dog who was rubbing against her madly: "Plum dried vegetables, goodbye!"

She was led by Tingting's mother, and she didn't say anything to Gu Tianjiao and Yu Cheng until she got into the car.Her mother fastened her seat belt, and she sat silently in the passenger seat and looked at the two people outside the car.

Tingting's mother's car left the complex.

For the rest of the time, Yu Cheng and Gu Tianjiao just stood in the cold wind downstairs without moving for a long time.Afterwards, Gu Tianjiao took him back to the twelve buildings.

The two leaned against each other on the sofa and sat quietly for a while, Yu Cheng stretched out his hand to touch Gu Tianjiao: "Brother, I'm sorry for you. Since you met me, you have retreated from a rich environment with everything, and now you have become a loner .”

Gu Tianjiao lit a cigarette and smiled: "What widow? Isn't there a dog!"

Yu Cheng smiled wryly: "That's right, we will become a typical gay couple from now on, with no offspring, only a dog. Ten years later, we will become two old men with an old dog; in a year or two, the old The dog went, two older men, and a kitten; when it was over, the cat also went, and then a dog... In the end, there was nothing left."

Gu Tianjiao took a deep breath of smoke: "That's right. Maybe life is a process of retreat. What I had in the past may not belong to me in the first place. It is right to return everything now."

Yu Cheng had nothing to say, he thought for a while: "Brother, why... I thought we would be able to convince Tingting's mother. If not, you have to choose one of the two. You will definitely choose Tingting. It is your own flesh and blood. Why did you choose me?"

Gu Tianjiao was silent for a while, then looked back at him: "The day your mother left, you said a word after we were done."

Yu Cheng: "... what?"

Gu Tianjiao: "You said, 'It's over, I seem to be inseparable from Ajiao for the rest of my life'." He looked at Yu Cheng's demented look and laughed, "It's easy to say casually at that time, I understand. But I will write down I think it would be great if what you said was true."

Yu Cheng was stunned.

Gu Tianjiao: "By the way, thinking about it this way, why did you say 'it's over'? Do you think it was a mistake?"

Yu Cheng was stunned for a moment: "Brother Ajiao, let me ask you, I am your first boyfriend, we have been together for less than a year, and you have sacrificed so much for me. Aren't you afraid? Are you sure you won't go out Go around and pick around to see if there is anyone better than me? What if someone is more suitable for you, or I change my mind, or I compromise with my family? At that time, if you look back, isn’t it all in vain now? ?”

Gu Tianjiao hummed and smiled: "Understood."

Yu Cheng: "That's it? 'Understood'?"

Gu Tianjiao: "It's my own choice to lose everything; if I choose to pay for it, it doesn't matter to anyone else."

Yu Cheng hugged his legs, curled up on the sofa, and said for a long time: "I'm just curious, how did you make such a decision. After all, the elephant anchored Lao Gao after going through various challenges. You... "

Gu Tianjiao looked at him and smiled: "I feel that you are under a lot of pressure! Afraid that I will 'anchor' you? That's right, after all, you are a chameleon, and it is your characteristic that you have no loyalty to everyone and things."

Yu Cheng: "..."

Gu Tianjiao: "But it's because of this. I've known you for more than two years. No matter what happens around me, you are willing to understand. Everything has two sides, um... It's really a bit of a challenge to hold you firmly."

Yu Cheng was taken aback: "Huh?"

He thought, why did their situation seem to be completely reversed?Next is Gu Tianjiao going to arrest him instead?

Gu Tianjiao held Yu Cheng's hand and laughed: "Yes, you have taken the initiative. How do you want to play?"

Yu Cheng: "No, I don't want to play."

Gu Tianjiao: "It's okay if you want to play, am I not your second term? If you want to 'pick' outside, I won't stop you."

Yu Cheng: "Huh?"

Gu Tianjiao shook his head and smiled: "For you, I have refreshed my bottom line! Of course, after you have finished shopping around, it is my ability to win; if you really like someone else, it doesn't matter. Even if you leave Now, don’t I still have myself? You help me see who I am, I’m keeping my capital, and I’m not living in vain.”

Yu Cheng's eyes were sour, and he buried his face in Gu Tianjiao's arms after a long time: "You are also an idiot."

Gu Tianjiao patted him: "Okay, okay, let's stop being bitter. As long as you don't want to die, life must go on no matter how hard it is. We are two people now, you hurry up and get me gay!"

Yu Cheng: "..."

What Gu Tianjiao said seemed to be true, the tiny light in his eyes shone, dispelling the low pressure in the room: "How do gays play? You just said to keep pets? What else? Go shopping together? Get a haircut together? Travel together? "

Yu Chengmeng nodded: "Yeah!"

Gu Tianjiao: "Is there anything else to pay attention to? Seeing that you put on a mask every day, do I have to do it too?"

Yu Cheng: "Pfft..."

Gu Tianjiao: "What else? Dress up? Put on the cheongsam, put on the lipstick, pinch the orchid fingers!..."

Yu Cheng laughed to death: "Brother, you've gone astray! That's the misunderstanding that very few straight people have about most gays."

Gu Tianjiao: "Really? In the old movies, don't all gays be portrayed like this? Are they all black?"

Yu Cheng smiled and said: "It's not too bad, there are people like this...Of course, if you think you're happy playing like this, then, then, it's okay for me to be disillusioned."

Gu Tianjiao: "That won't work, I have to arrest you. Seducing your wife is the top priority!"

Yu Cheng: "..."

Gu Tianjiao then happily told Yu Cheng that he had conjectured about the gay circle, which made Yu Cheng laugh so hard that he died.

Gu Tianjiao's joy is not fake. He seems to be on a path that does not belong to him. He has walked a long way in accordance with other people's expectations, and found his heart by accident. Although it is a small path , but let him feel at ease.

But at night, he made excuses to stay in Tingting's room and sat on the bed with a book to read.It was late at night, so he scanned the furnishings in the room, turned off the lights and came out.

Yu Chengying stepped forward to hug him, Gu Tianjiao didn't hold on anymore, buried his hot forehead in Yu Cheng's neck and didn't move for a long time.

He didn't say anything, but Yu Cheng understood that in Gu Tianjiao's current life, he was the only one left who could deal with him without any guards or masks.
