20. I am Not Your Mr. Gu (5)

Translator: Annsmiley

At night, Nan Yu went to the bridge again. And before he went there, he packed some food from the restaurant.

When Nan Yu arrived, Gu Dongye was wiping his guitar. And it was unclear how he looked.

Nan Yu walked towards him while everyone else was walking in the opposite direction.

The small bands on the other side were surrounded by the audience, but there was only one lonely figure on this side.

Nan Yu stopped in front of him.

“Little guy, nice to see you again. Have you eaten yet?”

When he heard Nan Yu’s voice, Gu Dongye raised his head and frowned.

‘Why was he here?’

‘Why did the little guy look unhappy?’ Nan Yu was confused.

“Little guy, I brought you some food.”

Nan Yu handed over the takeaway containers in his hand.

“No need, I’ve had dinner,” Gu Dongye didn’t take them.

He wasn’t a beggar and didn’t need anyone’s pity.

“Rabbit, why didn’t he take the food I brought him?”

< Host Player, who likes to be pitied by others? >

“Do I look like I’m pitying him?”

< You called him ‘little guy’. Does it not sound like you’re pitying him? >

Nan Yu felt embarrassed. Come on, that didn’t count, right? He couldn’t possibly explain it now. After all, the villain’s self-esteem seemed to be stronger than ordinary people.

Nan Yu could only awkwardly retract his hand, “I don’t have any ill intentions. It’s just that I haven’t had dinner and I happened to be here, so I thought of you and brought you some food.”

Gu Dongye raised his head when he heard Nan Yu’s explanation.

Did he overthink it? This man was here just because he thought of him, not because he pitied him.

“Mmm.”

“Are you going to sing today?” Nan Yu meant to change the subject.

“Mmm.”

It was great that he was going to sing, Nan Yu smiled and stood quietly beside him.

The lights in the distance were shining brightly, and the solo started:

You’re walking on the road alone with your head lowered.

The bigger the city is, the more flustered you feel.

How much do you yearn for your goal, how long your road will be.

You’ve had too many sorrows along the way…

And you’ve forgotten the way you used to smile.

Time has made us…

Both weak and strong…

Let me sing to you softly again…

Let me stay by the side of you…

And I will tell you the stories of my life before I met you…

Later, Nan Yu would come to the bridge and listen to Gu Dongye’s songs every night. Unconsciously, they were both used to seeing each other here at this hour every day.

It was drizzling and the pedestrians were all in a hurry to go somewhere else.

For some reason, although Gu Dongye knew that the weather would be like this, he still went to the bridge with his guitar on his back.

He came to the same spot as usual. He was drenched in rain as he played the guitar by the road.

It wasn’t until the rain got heavier that he realized something.

What was he doing? It was raining heavily. Why would that person come here? And he was even worried that that person wouldn’t be able to find him when he came here.

The music gradually came to an end. Without the person’s applause, he also became a bit moody.

What was he doing? He even thought of that person as his warm sun in this city. That person was just a listener and he didn’t even know that person’s name.

Gu Dongye felt unbelievable when he realized what he was thinking about.

The sound of the rain suddenly grew louder, but the strange thing was that he couldn’t feel the rain coming down on him.

The shadow of an umbrella suddenly appeared on the ground. Gu Dongye raised his head and saw a figure in grey sportswear. And he felt the captivating gentleness of that person.

It was him.

“Little guy, why do you come out on a rainy day? And why didn’t you bring an umbrella when you came out?”

Nan Yu sounded a little reproachful. It was raining cats and dogs. Had Nan Yu not come here, would he be singing in the rain without an umbrella over him?

“I’m not a little guy.”

Gu Dongye could tell that Nan Yu was a bit angry, but his attention wasn’t on that.

“Okay, you’re not a little guy. Then tell me how ooooooold you are.” Nan Yu prolonged the word “old” and smiled as he waited for Gu Dongye’s response.

“It’s going to turn eighteen soon,” Gu Dongye didn’t hide it and told him honestly what his age was.

“Ha, compared to me, you’re still very young. I’m six years older than you and I could have been your uncle.”

Seeing how honest and lovely Gu Dongye looked, Nan Yu suddenly wanted to tease him.

“You’re not old. It would be unfair to me if I were to call you uncle.”

Gu Dongye frowned and was a little unhappy.

“Then call me brother. That’s fair for both of us!” Seeing that he was a little angry, Nan Yu couldn’t help but continue to tease him.

Gu Dongye really couldn’t say that, so he chose to remain silent.

Having spent so much time together with him for so many days, Nan Yu had figured out what Gu Dongye’s temper was like, and he was used to it when Gu Dongye didn’t speak.

“Alright, little guy, you see, it’s raining so heavily. How about you go to my place and wait until the rain stops?”

The rain was getting heavier. Nan Yu couldn’t possibly leave him here singing all alone in the rain!

“No need, I can go back to my own place.”

Gu Dongye refused.

Nan Yu wouldn’t take no for an answer. He didn’t believe that after spending so much time together for so many days, this little guy would still reject him, so he grabbed his hand and was ready to leave with him.

Gu Dongye was stunned. He felt his cold hand being held by Nan Yu’s warm hand and he just stared at that hand.

“Look, your hands are so cold. Are you trying to freeze yourself to death here?” When he touched Gu Dongye’s cold hand, Nan Yu was a little angrier.

Nowadays, children never took good care of their bodies. It wouldn’t be fun if the little guy got sick.

Nan Yu had given full play to the orginal host’s habit of sticking his nose into other people’s affairs.

“Don’t you have anything else to do?” Gu Dongye suddenly said.

“I’m a teacher. So thanks to the nature of my job, I’m quite free. Apart from teaching my class, I have nothing else to do.”

“Ha, no wonder you like to meddle in other people’s business so much,” The expression on Gu Dongye’s face suddenly changed, looking quite indifferent and displeased.

Nan Yu felt it quite unbelievable. He was being kind when he asked him to go to his place. And yet this guy was annoyed and unhappy. How could he be so ungrateful?

“Little guy, I’m trying to be kind here. How could you pull a long face at me?”

“Since you like to meddle in other people’s business so much, you should find someone who doesn’t mind when you do that. And I do mind when other people stick their noses into my affairs.”

Gu Dongye was upset because judging from what Nan Yu said, he must have done something like this quite often.

“You think I don’t have something better to do with my time? If it wasn’t for the fact that I’m fond of you, I wouldn’t even have stopped and looked at you!”

What Nan Yu said was true. If it weren’t because Gu Dongye was his target in this world and he liked his voice, he wouldn’t be willing to come out on such a rainy day just for him.

“Fond of me,” Gu Dongye muttered.

So, he was special to him. And he wasn’t doing this because he pitied him, but because he was someone special to him.

“Little guy, after all the time that we had spent together, don’t you trust me? Or are you afraid that I will sell you?”

“My name is Gu Dongye, and I’m not a little guy.”
