In the master bedroom, Gu Yun took a wet tissue and bent over to wipe away the little bits of sweat on Wen Jue's forehead.
Wen Jue was lying on the Simmons bed with her eyes closed, her limbs limply slumped near the quilt, and her chest was rising and falling, breathing heavily.
She was obviously exhausted.
"Gudong, Gudong..."
Gu Yun jumped out of bed and brought a large glass of warm water. He drank it first and then helped Wen Jue up to replenish her lost water.
"Tell me, is this medicine useful?"
There was no light on in the huge bedroom. Wen Jue hugged his knees and leaned on the bed, stretched out one hand and intertwined his fingers with Gu Yun.
"Well, I don't know about this either. I just believe it."
Gu Yun grinned and scratched his lover's palm.
"well."
After a few sips of water, Wen Jue, who had outstanding physical fitness, seemed to have regained his strength. His thighs with clear curves were put together in front and back, making a relaxed posture.
"What are you sighing for?"
"I have been curious about a question during this time."
Wen Jue turned his head and looked at Gu Yun.
In the night sky, the light in her eyes was surprisingly bright, like stars.
"How to say?"
Gu Yun asked.
"You said, is the framework of traditional love fundamentally toxic?"
Wen Jue turned off the air conditioner and opened the closed curtains and windows to make the moonlight in the room brighter.
"When two people are placed together, they will be constantly cut down by possessiveness. After the cuts, their egos with a sense of sacrifice will squeeze each other, leaving each other breathless."
Gu Yun blinked and did not answer.
"Do you still remember what you said when we kissed for the first time?"
During the long night, Wen Jue held up her wrists, took off the headband from her wrists, shook her head and tied her brown hair into a ponytail, smiling brightly.
"what did I say?"
"You said that there is no need to define a relationship. As long as two people are comfortable with each other, let everything happen naturally and beautifully."
"Um......"
The words he used to coax girls to get on base were said by Wen Ju in a serious manner a few years later, and Gu Yun suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
"So, I also try to get out of the frame and learn to get along with you in a complete manner, not bound by any frame."
"Although I later learned that the premise for you to say this is that you already have a girlfriend."
Wen Jue's soft and waxy voice is extremely calm, like a lake reflecting sunlight in winter.
After learning that there was a rival in the relationship, Wen Jue did not cry and beg the other person to leave, nor did he angrily question the rationality of the relationship. Faced with several provocations, Wen Jue always maintained a certain degree of emotional stability.
Because her heart is like a bright mirror - Gu Yun is serious enough about her and has thought of enough ways.
From the beginning to the end of this relationship, no one person ever did any excessive harm to the other person.
Even if we feel harmonious but different in the occasional small friction, we always understand each other with the greatest goodwill and communicate with each other with the greatest patience.
Except for not being single-minded enough, he did everything else very well. He was worthy of both the other party and himself.
"Sometimes, I think you are a really amazing person."
Wen Jue moved next to Gu Yun and lay side by side with him.
"Even if your behavior is excessive in terms of universal values, I just continue to move forward with questions of self-exploration. There is no wound in my heart, so there is no need to heal the wound or wait for healing."
A big hand was pulled over by her and placed on her soft belly.
Although the hostility between them has not been resolved yet, they have never said anything bad to each other.
If one day, onlookers doubt whether love comes in an intimate relationship, then this kind of restraint is the best proof.
"Baby, you are actually very amazing."
Gu Yun turned sideways and met Wen Jue's eyes.
"Sometimes when I think of you, I still feel grateful."
"What are you talking about? Why are you so polite all of a sudden?"
Wen Jue couldn't help but laugh, the corners of his mouth raised, and his beautiful peach blossom eyes curved into an arc.
"I love telling the truth."
Gu Yun said seriously.
The preciousness of Wen Jue lies in giving him many things that he never had.
For example, de-symbolized love and the determination to never betray.
He also learned a lot from Wen Jue, such as his enthusiasm for daily life and his strong subjectivity.
"Back to the question at the beginning. I have been thinking recently, the reason why I am so angry about their pregnancy is because I have returned to the framework of traditional love?"
“Does the end of a long-term relationship really have to be living together in the same space, sleeping in the same bed, getting married and having children?”
The cicadas outside the window kept chirping, and the evening breeze blowing through the gap was extremely gentle, just like Wen Jue's soft whisper in his ears at this moment.
"Sometimes, I don't want to simply use the traditional word love to define our relationship. It would easily slip into all kinds of vulgar scripts, which is not the reality we experience."
Gu Yun raised his head and met Wen Jue's searching eyes.
"I said that our relationship does not need to be defined like others, because we two individuals have a quality that is unique to us."
Wen Jue pursed her lips, her eyes a little more confused.
"It's like a train. When the train arrives at the station, it doesn't stop moving. It just changes tracks."
Gu Yun stretched out his arms and held Wen Jue in his arms.
"We all know that by continuing to drive on the original track, like a couple, the clear rate at which its parts will wear out, age, it will break, the paint will peel off, and become obnoxious. So until then, it's best to let it
We can't bear to leave this track because this is something we cherish together."
"If you and I go to get a certificate now and become husband and wife, can you turn a blind eye to others like before?"
Wen Jue blinked his eyes, his head spinning rapidly, and remained silent.
"Just like changing from a stranger to a partner, and then from a partner to a new status, these are decisions we make based on our love and care for each other."
"I don't want to let each other's egos and the beauty we once had be corrupted by the definition of universal values."
Gu Yun rubbed Wen Jue's head and continued.
"So I decided to give up the serious definition of intimacy and leave the framework. Maybe in freedom, we will love each other forever under another name."
"Wow......"
The confusion in Wen Jue's eyes gradually dissipated: "Where on earth do you get these strange theories?"
"The scariest thing is that I actually think what you said makes sense..."
"Have I been brainwashed by you?"
"Maybe you feel now that it sounds a bit strange to say that many issues are still unclear."
"But in fact, those are not important. This is the journey of life later, and we are each waiting to explore the proposition."
