Chapter 36 Gu Beiming's Thoughts That He Can't Face I
A fresh spring breeze lifted Gu Beichen's messy and fluffy hair, and then the breeze that continued on the road gently held his proud face with her warm hand, and the touch was extremely soothing, like Shirley lying beside him and whispering to him.
"Gu Beichen, in the name of the president, I order you: - Freedom, from today onwards, you must straighten your chest and tie, and walk out of this cage of ridiculous ideas that imprison you like a dignified man, and second, you must be a scum that your mother, Miss Zheng Shijing, cannot forgive. Promise me that you will definitely have the ability and courage to do such a thing. Gu Beiming commanded in a resolute and calm tone.
In Gu Beichen's impression, the unsmiling brother Gu Beiming has always been a domineering attitude, he has always looked at him with contempt, and even the inevitable verbal contact, he is used to using a stern tone. Many times, when he talked about his brother, he was like a violent wind blowing in his heart, so he followed his mother's admonition to pick up his tail and avoid the minefield he had dug with the attitude of observing words and colors. It wasn't until the year he went to Germany that he barely ended his life under the fence. However, the brotherly relationship that had just eased was not completely relieved by Gu Beichen's resolute withdrawal, and his father mentioned the news of equity distribution after a hundred years for the first time at the press conference, and after the press conference, he was secretly sent back from Germany by his father and sent to Qingyi, and his brother also chose to stand on his opposite side on that day. The fire of the rupture was accompanied by the fierce flame of revenge of his brother. For a moment, Gu Beichen was a little at a loss.
"In the name of the president, brother, you have to accept me from the bottom of your heart, right?" Gu Beichen grabbed the brand-new suit from the sofa, and took out the pair of shiny leather shoes like ink from the shoe rack, the champagne-colored magnesium lamp was erosive and elegant, Gu Beichen lowered his head and smiled confidently at the handsome boy reflected in the mirror, and then wrapped the black watch around his uneven wrist. "Thank you, brother, do you know how long I waited for you to spit out? I thought you would never pay attention to me again for the rest of your life. β
"Don't bother, your personal assistant has already soaked the "Comberland" and put it on your desk. β
"My desk. β
"Mobile, where I go, your office is there, compared with Gu's ordinary employees, your direct boss is me, you don't have to obey anyone except me. β
"Remember: At 9:45, the first preliminaries of the China Division of the TVA Model TV Contest, I was the selected guest of the venue, and I must enter the venue at 9:15 and take a look with all the seniors in the business community to discuss some business issues together. At a quarter of twelve o'clock, you can help me contact Chairman Xie of MMBC Group and Kim Seung-jun, Executive Director of CGH Group, for lunch. At 2:20 p.m., the press conference unveiled the Group's latest project for this year, and I asked you to come forward to clarify the relationship between you and me, as well as between you and your father. β
"Is there a problem? There is also a matter of the Gu Group, Miss Zheng Shijing, is it not that Aunt She knows?"
"Brother, did you just ask me to come to the stage and talk about these things?"
"Why, if you have any questions, bring them up now, and I'll consider whether to put you into the company. β
The lights in the stairwell dimmed, Gu Beiming's face sank, revealing a meaningful smile, and then he asked Gu Beichen in a slightly smug tone.
"Why do you regret it now? If you had stood up and brought me down, I think it would have been your turn to say these things to me. β
Gu Beichen slowly took off his sunglasses and stood up. The dark shadows lingering in the corners blend with the bright sunlight projected into the Gu family's living room, forming a series of black and white cutting lines.
"I told my mom that I thought she would stand out against it, but to my surprise she respected my choice. And if it weren't for Shirley, she has done something that has given me a headache recently, and my mother would have been able to accept her. β
Gu Beiming glanced at Gu Beichen's half-hidden door, which couldn't hide the mess in the bed. "My own house is like this, let alone a living person. No wonder that girl was always insecure. β
Gu Beiming took out a stack of new photos that smelled of ink from his briefcase as he walked. "This is a photo taken by Chairman Xie at the new product launch three days ago, and this photo of Director Kim and a food investigator who used to do CBN programs, I think with your full memory, it should be easy to write down the details of these people. With that, he opened a folder again and handed the A4 paper densely printed with small print to his lap.
Gu Beichen flipped through the pages casually, he was stunned for a moment, and stared at Gu Beiming with a puzzled expression. "Brother, so much, do you want me to memorize them all now?my God, I don't think I'm a secretary, but how I evolved into a good agent. β
"Knowing oneself and knowing one's opponent is invincible. These are just a few of them to me, and the research and analysis is to judge, absorb and implement, and even follow-up work, and there can be no deviation of even 1 millimeter in each link. Gu Beiming muttered his wise words, his nervous appearance was almost like a professor in school, and his catchy words were either involuntary facts or unquestionable theorems.
Gu Beichen frowned, and his warm eyes shook unconsciously. He turned the carbon pen in his hand in a few spiral arcs quickly. Time flies in a flash, and the time that is as precious as life to Gu Beiming is used by Gu Beichen to gaze at the refreshing sunlight outside the window.
"Ahh β
The enthusiasm and confidence that was easily accumulated were a little dusty by a pile of A4, and Gu Beichen was falling into a kind of aggrieved state of mind of "I don't go to hell who will go to hell" and couldn't extricate himself, "Ah, Gu Beichen." Daydreaming. Suddenly, his thoughts were interrupted by the clear voice of his brother sitting next to him.
"Nothing, I just wanted to check if I had just made a note of these 11 extraordinary faces. β
Gu Beichen replied slowly, he bit off the cap of his pen, and then opened the numbered documents again, and when he turned to the page of the Song Group, his fingers trembled slightly.
"Young Master Gu is so noble, why do you still need our Song family to intervene to help you save face? Not a lot? It is indeed a lot, after being kicked out by his family, he can still slap his swollen face and fill the fat man for so long, and the matter of spending money in the future will be more restrained, so as not to stab the president with the basket, I think Old President Gu will definitely have a cerebral hemorrhage." The rampant ridicule, the obscene insult, and the obscene face of the big-shouldered, round-waisted, silly-pale young man who supported Song Minghao resurfaced in his mind again.
For some, it's just a momentary haze, while for others, it can turn into a hot and intense storm surge. Every time a black cloud approaches, it will take away the bright eyes of people's hearts. At that moment, no matter how insignificant the grievances are, they will be blown into oblivion by the unscrupulous wind.
His hands trembled more and more violently, and the "click" sound kept coming from between the sheets of paper.
Gu Beiming originally planned to repeat the company's latest situation to Gu Beichen. But occasionally raising his head, he found that Gu Beichen was gritting his teeth at the page marked Song Minghao, he was wringing his fingers tightly, and he exhaled deeply in the sobbing trembling sound.
"What's the matter, do you have any holiday with the Song family?"
Seeing that Gu Beichen's eyes were getting colder and colder, Gu Beiming tried to lower his voice again to save him from his thoughts.
Gu Beichen hooked out the small stool under the coffee table with his feet, Gu Beiming looked at him with sharp eyes, and after seeing it for ten minutes, he suddenly felt very funny and said.
"I remember when you were twelve years old, you came back with two zero eggs in the final exam, and at your grandfather's birthday party that year, several business tycoons invited to the banquet gave you ordinary greetings in order to make friends with your father. You have always been known for being naughty when you were a child, and you were forced to be very thirsty by those bullets. β
"Brother, you used the full glass of red wine to trick me again, I was like a fish in my throat, and I had to pretend to be thirsty. β
"So Song Minghao is quite concerned about you, in order to help you cover, he first greeted everyone very politely, and then took the opportunity to pour a full glass for you. It seems that sometimes you are also very close to each other. β
Although Gu Beiming was smiling all the time, Beichen was still aware of the explicit provocation behind his smile.
"We don't know each other, we don't have contacts, let alone intersect. He embarrassed me in front of so many celebrities, how could I possibly make do with him. Gu Beichen stammered like a fool, and this expression gave Gu Beiming a lot of stimulation.
Gu Beiming's lips were pursed tightly, his eyelashes trembled slightly, the sunlight spilled into his pupils, and his eyes were as black as the night sky.
"Do you think I don't know anything about you? Such a big hole, if I hadn't intercepted and blocked the news, would you have been able to return to the Gu family unharmed? Of course, you can spend a lot of money, but that kind of occasion is the most hated thing in my father's life, and you don't know that he hates gambling all his life. β
"Brother, you, did you follow? Gu Beichen's forehead was exposed.
Gu Beiming turned his gaze to the Gu family's garden in the distance. The floating light that swam like a bubble circle was connected into a string, and Gu Beiming's constricted pupils were a little dizzy. He closed his eyes and said calmly.
"If your performance in the future can't satisfy me, I can consider changing my rhetoric to ensure that you don't have the guts to go out of the Gu family and date Cui Xueli again. β
Gu Beichen furrowed his frowns, and he said happily with understanding: "Brother, do you mean that you used your own treasury at that time? No wonder I always feel that I don't have much to repay, and I still wonder why I owe so much." β
"Ah, that's what you should say, damn bastard. β
Gu Beiming looked at Gu Beichen expressionlessly.
"Brother, I owe you a big favor. Of course, you didn't report it to my mom. β
Gu Beiming still looked at Gu Beichen without saying a word, he pretended not to listen to him carefully, and then continued to sort out his accompanying briefcase. It was clear that he didn't want to talk too much about this outdated topic. He turned around and picked up his phone from his briefcase, but he was stunned for a moment, and then put his hand into Gu Beichen's bag and went to Gu Beichen's I
There are a few recent photos posted in the s.
"What are you doing?" Gu Beichen peeked at the screen, he noticed that Gu Beiming was editing a message for Tae-hee in the message box, and then he didn't send her the text, on the contrary, he deleted it again and again, and every time he repeated the edit, the content didn't change much. Gu Beichen respectfully put his hands behind his back, he jumped to his feet, and the expression on his face was strange and still retained uninhibited cunning.
"Brother, are you sending a message to any girl? I'm not afraid of being known by my sister-in-law. β
"Sister-in-law. Gu Beiming asked in surprise.
"Don't talk too much, don't ask more, but thank you, if you have a message to reply, remember to let me know. β
"Did my brother leave a message for Sister Tae-hee just now, it's my former private teacher, Mr. Shin Tae-hee. β
"When is it the president's turn to report to the secretary?"
"But that's what I have in the terms of my job. Push off all the things for the Elder that he may not be interested in. β
"Then, if Sister Taixi replies to the message, what does my brother want to say to her, and my brother says that he misses her very much, or does my brother want to make an appointment to meet alone? β
"And my brother's schedule today is full, yes, since he got married, his personal time has been less, and he is on the way to the event all day except for soaking in the office. β
Gu Beichen carefully sucked his coffee, and muttered while his mouth was not idle. Choking on piping hot coffee. He coughed desperately, harder, harder, and his lungs gushed out of his mouth.
Gu Beiming quickly glanced at him, and then returned the phone to Gu Beichen. Beichen took the phone and put it in his trouser pocket, suddenly got up and walked away and ran into the bathroom, accompanied by the sound of flushing. He shoved his freshly stained coffee-stained blazer into the bathroom washing machine, rearranged his outfit, and walked out of his hands looking much fresher.
"By the way, it's time for us to go, and if Tae-hee has a reply message along the way or after the show starts recording. β
"I'll definitely help you reply, just say that my brother was busy just now. β
"No, as long as her message doesn't affect my mood at the recording site, you can show it to me as soon as possible. β
Gu Beiming replied very succinctly.
Gu Beichen opened the door, "Let's go, brother, I think if Sister Taixi knows your heart, she will definitely forgive you." After all, so many things have happened during this time, and Sister Taexi is a sensible person. As long as you can pass that level in your heart, it's not a big problem. By the way, this is the coffee that Aunt Baolan (the nanny of the Gu family for more than ten years) carefully brewed for you, although it is not comparable to the one in the store outside. But it is also a heavy heart. β
On the quiet path outside Gu's gate, a red and blue taxi sped past the road, and then galloped towards the depths of the smog smoke. A fleeting ray of light envelops a girl who looks exactly like Tae-hee. At that moment, Gu Beiming's distant eyes became depressed again. His heart was slammed into the unknown by something, astringent and salty.
He lowered his head and looked at the familiar coffee cup in his hand, and for a moment Tae-hee's voice quietly drifted into his ears.
"Thank you, President Gu Beiming, thank you for paying off my brother's debts for me again, and bothering you again and again, I don't know how to express my gratitude. β
Tae-hee licked his tongue and grinned embarrassedly and smiled faintly. In the past, she always spoke in a formal and polite manner. Whenever Gu Beiming had no choice but to get closer to her, she always gave people a cold and arrogant look that rejected people thousands of miles away. Although her sensitive eyes are always full of powerful repulsive power, this makes Gu Beiming's heart always stupid.
The air was quiet and a little distorted, even in the huge living room, Gu Beiming and Taixi seemed to be sitting on a bench in a fairy tale town. He lowered his head and pretended to cover his vision with his hands, Tae-hee looked calmly into the distance, her eyes were like moist night dew flickering between the clear bays, and her seemingly nonexistent smile aroused Gu Beiming's strong desire to protect.
The afterglow of the sunset is red and flowing on her white porcelain-like blowing and breaking skin, her face is rubbing and red like a fire, and her lazy smile in the dizzying glow sets off her cheeks like two peach petals, graceful like a shepherd girl on the shore of Lake Baikal, her eyelashes tremble, and a pair of eyes faintly reflecting pink brilliance are like two evening cherry blossoms inlaid in white porcelain. Especially the night breeze swept across her face, and the glow on her face was like a thin veil.
The indescribable warmth gradually flowed in his cold heart, and at that moment, Gu Beiming forgot to breathe, and he turned to Tae-hee's face and slowly leaned towards her lips. Tae-hee's lip patches, coated with lip balm, trembled gently like petals moistened by dewdrops.
The atmosphere between the two of them instantly became confusing, and although Tae-hee never raised her head to meet Gu Beiming's eyes showing tenderness and pity, it was obvious that her unhurried heartbeat just now was also inexplicably accelerating.
Immediately he could touch her steaming lips, Gu Beiming's heart seemed to be on fire, and he kept leaning towards Tae-hee's side, so that he didn't notice his state at all, and his body was about to completely lose its center of gravity. One of his feet had just lifted off the ground.
"Gu Beiming, today I have a treat, come to my place of work for a cup of coffee. β
"Is this just the end of it?" Gu Beiming's eyes were extremely annoyed. "I can't help you with a single effort. β
"Otherwise, what else do you want me to do for you?" Tae-hee asked calmly.
"It's nothing, it's good that Miss Tae-hee is happy. Gu Beiming saw that she didn't respond to her sincerity, and he was a little disappointed. At this moment, he didn't mention that there was a lot of fire in his heart, and it was a pity to let go of such a prey monster, but it could only be said next time, and he didn't know when she would be able to give herself a chance to perform again, maybe only when that kid had some handle in his hands again.
"I love coffee, but I've never been interested in instant drinks. I like the feeling of the coffee beans slowly dissolving into nutrients in the clear water, and then the hot coffee tumbling in the coffee machine. β
"Looks like I'm going to have to make you a cup of coffee that you haven't drunk before, but that's to your taste, I'm in for a treat, how about it. β
Gu Beiming didn't respond to her, and at this time, all in his mind were Tae-hee's best appearance.
"It's not convenient to go to the place where you work, don't you work in many places? β
"It doesn't matter, Miss Zheng Shijing was dragged to the golf course by President Gu to cheer and dance in the hot field, and tomorrow they booked Beppu Hot Spring. I don't think we're going to meet him unless we're unlucky. β
"This. Taixi's face was embarrassed, and she looked at Gu Beiming embarrassedly. Then her eyes drifted upstairs, and she stretched out her hand and pointed to Gu Beichen's mother's room.
"I couldn't hear anything on the second floor, maybe someone went out with the lights on. Gu Beiming hurriedly stood up from his seat, and when he suddenly thought of something, he gasped, and then grabbed Tae-hee's finger, and Tae-hee's finger shrank back. Even the little face was red.
"Would you like to follow me upstairs to have a look? β
"Then, isn't there Beichen upstairs?" Tae-hee looked at Gu Beiming with a surprised expression. "You're not afraid that he'll tell your aunt. β
"Can you please not mention her in front of me. There was uncontrollable anger in his voice, and he was waiting to come out.
Tae-hee didn't speak, she just widened her eyes in horror, and then bowed to the empty second floor for no reason. "Hello ma'am. β
"Zheng Shijing, do you say? Gu Beiming reflexively turned around and looked at the stairwell behind him, except for the huge Gu family's curtains dyed with the night wind, there was no one behind him. He glared angrily at Tae-hee, who was sitting on a kitchen bench and mixing coffee for him. A pair of long legs stand like water under the crystal chandelier reflecting the sea of roses.
She slowly raised her head, and a magnificent flower slowly bloomed in her quiet eyes.
Looking at Tae-hee's back, Gu Beiming tentatively approached quietly.
"Add milk, creamer, sugar cubes, do you want to add some nuts, or I can make you a glass of fresh fruit macchiato." β
"When did you study my preferences?"
Gu Beiming resisted the urge to laugh, he shrugged his shoulders calmly and raised his voice.
"Why is it so slow, it's turtle speed, I thought you had made a great invention, like nuts, like this can of coffee beans. β
Tae-hee shrank the coffee that was handed to Gu Beiming's hand.
"Just look at the butter in the fridge. β
"You can also add butter to your coffee. Tae-hee was taken aback, and she looked at him in a daze.
Gu Beiming, who had nothing to say, gently inhaled the aroma of coffee with his nose, and then gulped down the last drop of coffee with a satisfied face.
"Butter coffee. Gu Beiming read carefully the row of familiar words at the bottom of the coffee cup, and his nose was sour. Tears glistened in the corners of his eyes.
Gu Beichen parked the car right in front of his brother Gu Beiming, just on the way from the garage to the main entrance, he looked at Gu Beiming left alone in place, his face was very pale and ugly, the dark light flashing in his eyes didn't know whether it was irritability, sadness, or deep in painful memories and couldn't extricate himself. At that moment, an inexplicable emotion and sudden consternation were intertwined in his heart. He wanted to comfort him, but he was also afraid of being the next victim chosen by power.
Gu Beichen got out of the car, and he handed over the car keys to Gu Beiming's hands.
"The car keys will be handed over to you for safekeeping in the future, by the way, Tae-hee has she not replied to the message. Gu Beiming waited a little irritablely, and he asked with a puzzled expression.
"I didn't reply at all, and just when I picked up the car, I quietly glanced at the message my brother wrote, and Sister Taixi couldn't figure out whether you sent it or me? I don't think it's impossible for her to block it automatically. β
"Just call. Gu Beichen added.
"If it's not convenient to use my brother's mobile phone, I will use mine, and when my salary is paid next month, my brother will make up the phone bill to my salary slip. β
Gu Beiming took Gu Beichen's mobile phone, his heart was a little uneasy, even if the marriage had come to an end, he didn't have the courage to dial Tae-hee's phone number again after all.
He opened the INS and put Tae-hee on the screen to his heart.
"Brother, Sister Tae-hee is the first romantic encounter in my brother's life, just like me and Cui Xueli, both are embedded in the love of life. β
"I think maybe the current Sister Taixi is also in the same mood as her brother, neither daring nor easy to take this step, but deep down she is calling for each other. β
"Call, please call. There is no reimbursement for phone bills. β
Gu Beiming's tightly closed lips still looked stubborn, he looked at the focal length lens magnified countless times, and then stared at Gu Beichen expressionlessly.
Gu Beichen closed his mouth playfully, and then stroked his neatly combed hair in shame. Gu Beiming raised his chin without being humble or arrogant, was silent for a long time, and then commanded in a firm tone. "Drive, get to the scene as soon as possible. β
Through the rearview mirror, Gu Beichen looked at his frozen expression, as if he suddenly suffered from aphasia, he closed his mouth tightly.
