I am very poor

Chapter 96 The Night of the Fireflies

This sunflower manor was originally a breeding base, and it is also doing tourism development recently, but the project has just started, and the accommodation and the like have not yet been perfected.Huo Yufei just wanted to buy it. Although it hasn't been negotiated yet, they can visit here at will today.

The sun was already slowly setting down the mountain. In the camp surrounded by sunflowers, two people were squatting on both sides of the firepit, trying to persuade each other to let them cook.The ingredients prepared for them here are quite rich, two fish, a package of processed chicken legs, short ribs, several kinds of meat, raw corn, potatoes, yam, and millet, onion, ginger and garlic.

Huo Yufei has already planned in his mind that corn and two fish can be skewered and grilled, and ribs can be stewed with yam in a soup. He and Gu Cheng don’t like chicken very much, so let’s talk about chicken legs. If you wake up early tomorrow , just stew a chicken porridge or something else.

But Gu Cheng also wanted to express himself, and the real reason was that he felt that Huo Yufei was too playful, and they might not be able to eat it when he was asked to cook.But Huo Yufei was so positive, he didn't want to pour cold water on him, so he had to be more positive.

In the end, Huo Yufei had no choice but to ask Gu Cheng to arrange candles, ribbons, balls and the like.

An hour later, all these were done, he grabbed the crossbar on the edge of the roof, jumped down in a particularly vigorous manner, patted the dust off his body, and went to find Gu Cheng.

Then I found out... the situation doesn't seem optimistic?

To be precise, the fire hasn't even started yet.

Huo Yufei opened his mouth, and met the other party with a "rest assured"...or "go and play" look.

Little Sunflower silently closed her mouth again, climbed into the cabin along the stairs, changed the sheets she brought, and took care of the little rabbit when she came out. This time the fire was kindled, but Bai The hairy rabbit has also become a miscellaneous one.

Huo Yufei couldn't stand it anymore, he directly took the other party aside, sat on a small stool and quickly broke off the firewood and sent it in, the fire soon ignited, and white smoke billowed out of the small pot.While stirring with a spoon, he raised his eyebrows at Gu Cheng.

Seeing the surprised look of the other party, I couldn't help laughing: "When I was in Australia, I used to go camping, and I also hunted rabbits... Oops, I shouldn't have hunted rabbits."

Huo Yufei looked at Gu Cheng apologetically: "I will never hunt rabbits again."

Gu Cheng: ...

He finally couldn't bear it any longer, and asked, "Why do you always think I'm like a rabbit?"

Huo Yufei looked up at the sky: "What's the reason..."

"Of course." Gu Cheng sat down next to him, and while helping to break the firewood, he turned his head and waited for an answer.

He seems to be very dissatisfied with the code name "rabbit". Gu Cheng feels that he has absolutely nothing to do with this white, soft and timid little animal. Why does Huo Yufei have such an impression?

"Because I think you are cute." Huo Yufei said it very naturally, and then ordered the other party to string up the corn, and then peel the yam... If all these are done, take advantage of the dawn to reopen the cabin Scrub scrub wash.

Gu Cheng nodded in agreement, but he also said, "I think there are many things you haven't told me, so tell me little by little in the future, okay?"

Huo Yufei agreed with a smile.

But he also added: "Wouldn't it be better to leave a little mystery?"

Then the little rabbit opened a pair of transparent eyes, took a deep look, and said seriously: "Not good."

Gu Cheng really felt bad.

He doesn't want mystery, he wants security.

He wants to know everything about his beloved little Sunflower that no one else knows.

He wanted them to be closer, closer.

He wants unbroken intimacy.

After Gu Cheng cleaned up the house, he moved the stool to wear corn beside Huo Yufei. He had never done this before, but after trying a few times, he found the technique.

Huo Yufei, who was concentrating on controlling the heat, suddenly heard Gu Cheng say, "I think you are too mysterious."

Huo Yufei smiled and asked him, "What's so mysterious?"

Gu Cheng said: "In many places, it may be that I don't know you well enough."

Huo Yufei immediately said: "I will tell you whatever you want to know."

Gu Cheng glanced at him.

The corners of Huo Yufei's mouth turned up slightly: "Although I want to keep a sense of mystery, I will fulfill your wishes."

"You are too kind to me." Gu Cheng said suddenly.

Huo Yufei was delighted: "Are you complimenting me?"

Gu Cheng sighed lightly.

Huo Yufei paused, and looked at him quickly: "What's wrong? Don't think wildly."

"No..." Gu Cheng finished processing the last corn and began to peel the yam. He had a lot to say, but he didn't know where to start.

After a long time, he finally said: "You will tell me what I want to know, right?"

Huo Yufei was nervous for a second, but no matter how he thought, it was absolutely impossible for Gu Cheng to guess his biggest and biggest secret.Then besides other things, Huo Yufei felt that there was nothing that the little rabbit could not know.

So he nodded happily: "Yes, so what do you want to know?"

Gu Cheng actually said very seriously: "After I go back, I will tidy it up. Let's find time to hold an internal meeting."

Huo Yufei: ...

Then he had fun.

Suddenly holding a spoon, he leaned over, kissed Gu Cheng hard on the face, and whispered, "How can you be so cute?"

Gu Cheng frowned, feeling that he couldn't lose his momentum.

However, he still didn't dodge, his hands were covered with sticky yam skins, and he had no fighting power.

But if he wants to kiss back like this, he is a little bit hesitant.

Gu Cheng knew what was going on with him.

He is afraid of being rejected.

It's a very, very weak emotion, but he can't help himself, and it feels awful.

Gu Cheng didn't like Huo Yufei calling him a "little rabbit", because he didn't want to be such a weak image in the other party's heart.He has been doing his best to make himself stronger and be able to become the other party's reliance.Although if the other party is Huo Yufei, it seems a bit difficult to "rely on" or something, but at least support the other party as much as possible, right?

He set himself a time limit of three years, and he did it.

He pushed himself to a point of no return, whether it was the countless times he lost his fortune due to a single mistake, or was maliciously persecuted by the capital group because of his overly beautiful trader, or he had to hide in the small and stuffy cabin of a transit ship to smuggle To the United States... As long as he gives up once, he will never be able to get to where he is now.

Gu Cheng hates the word "weakness" from the bottom of his heart, and he will never let himself have anything to do with these two words.

The first thing he did after returning to China was to manipulate the stock price, cut off the capital flow of the group that was chasing and intercepting him before, lure the banker into the trap, and then go short.

He has never been complacent about it, he just feels that this is what it should be.

Everything he wants to do should be done.

Because enough price has been paid for all of today, nothing can be obtained casually.

Gu Cheng hates weakness and longs for strength.

He never told anyone that he was a little afraid of the dark.

Also just a little bit.

It was in that completely pitch-black environment without any light, every muscle in his body seemed to be frozen, and even the eyeballs couldn't move more.It was a horrible feeling, and after he experienced it once as a child, he never let it happen again.

Until the first month after he left city B, he moved into a basement.

The basement in the south is cold and damp, and water vapor can even condense on the walls and roof, but it doesn't matter. The only thing is that there are no windows, and in the basement, it will automatically trip and cut off the power at twelve o'clock in the evening.

The dark basement was like a bottomless black hole, and he lay there in the darkness, fighting desperately with the fear in his heart.

At the same time, he couldn't help thinking of Huo Yufei.Thinking of the other party's bright smile, I feel warm all over my body to resist the ubiquitous chill.

But no matter how firm Gu Cheng is on the path he chose, he will still have doubts and uncertainties.I doubt whether my choice is right, and I am not sure whether this road leads to the place I want to go.

What if he goes wrong?

Then this may become his lifelong regret.

But Gu Cheng knew better that he had no other choice.

Gu Cheng can't remember how he felt at that time. Did he want to overcome his weakness, or... wanted to use this to punish himself?

It is of course good to break through the self, but the bad thing is that it also brings a sequelae, that is, as long as there is a little light, he will not be able to sleep, no matter what.

This now presents a little trouble.

Their supper was ready, and by this time the sun had long since faded, and the moon and stars appeared in the sky.

And the candles they lit and the flickering flames on the fire pond made this small camp the only bright color in the endless sea of ​​flowers.

The two sat on both sides of the pond fire with bowls in their hands, talking, laughing and having dinner.

It was too quiet here, only the rustling sound of the night wind, emphasizing that there were only the two of them in the world.

It's relaxing, it's tense, and it's more open to opening up.

Huo Yufei asked about Gu Cheng's recent job, his future plans, and asked him if he lived in the United States for a period of time, whether he prefers there or City B.

Then was fed sugar.

Gu Cheng said that he prefers where Huo Yufei is.

This made Huo Yufei very happy.

His straightforward reaction was to put down the bowl, then go around behind the opponent and hug Gu Cheng.

Gu Cheng also put down the bowl and chopsticks, grasped the two hands wrapped around his chest, and raised his head slightly.

They kissed.

Then when they parted, Gu Cheng said with a bit of concern: "Isn't this position uncomfortable?"

Huo Yufei immediately let go of his arms, then climbed into the cabin, found some blankets from the cabinet, carried them out, spread them on the ground next to the firepit, took off his shoes and lay down on them, and patted the place left by his side .

Gu Cheng smiled.

But he's used to it quite well, and he planned to clean up the mess first, but Huo Yufei sternly protested.

So they lay down together.

At this time, the sky is very blue, and although the stars are not particularly bright, they are very dense. Looking up like this, the whole sky is like a huge dome, covering people high, making you feel free and at ease.

Huo Yufei hugged his beloved little rabbit, feeling heavy and full in his hands.

They talked ramblingly, and Huo Yufei also talked about what he was doing. He said it very carefully, without the concept of commercial secrets at all. He even broke the key points and talked about it in pieces, for fear that the other party would not understand.

While listening, Gu Cheng secretly wanted to change his posture. He wanted to hug Huo Yufei instead of being hugged by the other party like this, but he was noticed within two strokes. A leg stepped up.

Gu Cheng: ...Forget it, he actually doesn't care too much.

He remembered something and asked the other party: "Do you like the gift?"

Huo Yufei immediately remembered the thick picture album, and couldn't help but sighed, buried his nose into the other party's neck, and said sullenly: "I like it so much, baby, you are so romantic."

Gu Cheng... a little embarrassed.

He has never given anyone a birthday present seriously, and gifts for social occasions do not count.

After thinking hard for a long time, he finally thought of what is the most meaningful... and most valuable.

That is every stock he has handled in the past three years, recording every bit of his past three years.

He sorted out each stock he operated in chronological order, including the rise and fall of individual stocks, trends, minute trends, hourly intervals... all kinds of icons were put together, and then analyzed in depth.Including when he is optimistic, when to buy, how to predict, and how different the actual situation is from his prediction, and how this difference is caused... everything is detailed and extremely thorough.

How his strategy and model went from establishment to overthrow, and then establishment to overthrow again, until after winning and losing again and again, he found that the tactics he had relied on were nothing but tricks.

Then grow up step by step.

This is the crystallization of his painstaking efforts over the past three years.

Huo Yufei is well aware of its value.

This can be said to be a gold textbook that all investors dream of.

So he emphasized it again: "I am very surprised, I like it very much, I like it very much. I think you are too kind to me."

Gu Cheng was very happy in his heart, but he reacted quickly, and took the opportunity to raise conditions: "Really? Then I want to hug you."

Huo Yufei was overjoyed: "You have learned badly."

However, he obediently let the opponent change his posture.

Gu Cheng wrapped him in his arms from behind, let his back stick to his chest, and immediately felt great.

At this moment, continuous patches of fireflies suddenly appeared in the sky, twinkling in the night sky, more and more, brighter and brighter, compared with the stars in the sky.

Gu Cheng made a surprised voice: "Fireflies?"

Huo Yufei smiled and said, "Yes, this is the firefly, is it the first time you see it?"

Gu Cheng said, "Yes, how do you know?"

Huo Yufei thought to himself, how could I not know?

He touched his nose and said proudly, "Of course I want to know about you."

They were lying under the night sky covered with fireflies, talking in a low voice, and the voice dropped as they talked, Huo Yufei suddenly turned over and asked him: "Are you sleepy?"

Gu Cheng was indeed sleepy, he had hardly fallen asleep during this time, and his spirit was actually pretty bad, but he didn't want Huo Yufei to discover this, thinking that he could adjust himself, it just needed a little time.

So he shook his head: "Not sleepy."

Huo Yufei sized him up for a few seconds, then broke free suddenly, stretched his arms under Gu Cheng's neck, put him in his arms instead, and said softly, "Go to sleep. I'll watch you sleep."

Gu Cheng shook his head: "You are tired, why don't we go back to the house?"

The corner of Huo Yufei's mouth curled up: "Not tired, but you are tired, baby."

He stretched out his hand to cover Gu Cheng's eyes, coaxing a child and saying, "Close your eyes and sleep well. It's cool outside and the air is good. When you fall asleep, I'll hug you to bed, okay?"

Gu Cheng and him looked at each other for a few seconds, then closed their eyes helplessly.

But he knew he might not be able to sleep.

Not long after, Huo Yufei also found out.

He realized it seemed like a problem.
