Chapter 221: What the hell happened

I called Xiao Chen and turned down the job, but there was silence for a moment but then chuckled, "Miss Gu, I really want to know the reason why you rejected me!"

I also smiled and asked, "Mr. Xiao, then please tell me first, why did you invite me?"

"Miss Gu is very capable and suitable for this position, is this reason still to be doubted?" Xiao Chen's words were slightly raised, with a little sarcasm.

"In this city, people like me, not tens of thousands, but thousands, coupled with the conditions offered by Mr. Xiao, I believe that once it is posted, the applicants will definitely break through the threshold of Mr. Xiao. "I pointed out the real purpose of the other party, but I didn't say it clearly, I didn't want to tear my face, but I didn't want to be used as a monkey. "Mr. Xiao, the reason why you invited me, everyone knows it, the reason why I hesitate is because I really need money, and now the reason for my refusal, I guess Mr. Xiao doesn't want to know!"

Xiao Chen smiled again, with appreciation, "Miss Gu is really a smart person, no wonder Yuan Shao is obsessed with you, it's interesting and interesting, since the cooperation can't be achieved, then I won't force it, but this city is so big, I believe that we will be able to meet soon!"

There was a blind beep on the other end of the phone, and I was puzzled by Xiao Chen's last sentence, but I couldn't guess what it meant. However, when Yuan Shao was mentioned from his mouth, I was a little surprised. I have always felt that Yuan Shao simply used Xiao Chen's case to make a name for himself, but now it seems that the relationship between Xiao Chen and Yuan Shao is not simple.

I don't know if Pei Shaobei knows or doesn't know about this matter. I turned my phone and wanted to call him and tell him, but I felt that I had too much to do, and I was self-inflicted. He hesitated and hesitated, but in the end he still didn't get the call. But it was like a knot in my heart, and it could never be relieved.

I told my mother about the tutoring task for the next six months, and my mother was very happy and urged me to find a professional book and not delay the results of the college entrance examination. Of course, I knew that English in college was different from English in high school, but thanks to the experience I had gained in dealing with unfamiliar students and specializing in exam questions due to my previous lectures, I didn't have to panic so much this time. I instructed my mother not to forget to make supplementary food for Gu Xiao at noon, so I went out with my bag, got in the car and went straight to the nearest bookstore.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, the winter vacation is a good time to sprint, many people with senior high school children at home are crowded in the bookstore to find tutoring books, so that the relevant professional books are almost sold out, I asked several stores, but I didn't find the book I liked, I had to buy a few English reading digests, go out to buy a few buns, and go to the largest library in the city center. The books inside can be bought and borrowed, and I remember getting a library card there myself.

I looked down in my bag and walked forward, but I accidentally hit a stroller, I hurriedly reached out to help it, because I am also a mother, I know that parents are the most nervous children, so I looked at the child in the stroller with a greeting, and when I saw that he was okay, I apologized and raised my head.

"Gu Wan, is it really you?" The sound of surprise made me slightly stunned, I looked at the woman in front of me with a round face and a round waist, and I didn't react for a long time.

"I, Dong Mei!" Dong Mei pointed to her face and smiled a little embarrassed, "Isn't it a big change, hahahaha, my husband also said that I am fat like a lucky doll!"

The world is really small, especially in a city. Sometimes you feel that across the street, it is as if there is a silver drink across the street, and it is difficult to see each other again. However, sometimes, life pulls those people in memory in front of you from time to time, giving you a surprise or a fright.

Life is like a mischievous child, and the mother defines such a thing as a precursor.

I accepted Dong Mei's warm hug, and looked at her happy and smiling face, and I couldn't help but curl the corners of my mouth.

"You maintain this figure so well, I can't lose it even if I want to!" Dong Mei took me to the nearest café, chose a glass of juice and asked me what I wanted? Her child was very quiet, slowly falling asleep in the melodious music of the café, and her pink little face was cute.

It is a law that two mothers talk about their children and family the most when they meet. In the past, I was very unfamiliar with such things, and I was very repulsed, but the college reunion made me see too many things about comparing my husband and children, so that later, I never set foot in such occasions again.

Dong Mei gave me the feeling that it was the opposite, as if after experiencing extreme wealth and falling into the abyss of despair, people have a very open-minded understanding of life and life.

I looked at her and couldn't help but exclaim, "It's so good, Dong Mei, I always thought that we couldn't be friends, but I didn't expect that it was you who can talk to me happily now!"

I smiled a little helplessly, with envy.

Dong Mei seemed to be very happy, chatted with me for a while, and hesitantly turned the topic to Pei Shaobei.

"Gu Wan, I know you may not like to hear me say this, but I still want to ask, what happened between you and Pei Shaobei?" Dong Mei lowered her head a little apologetically, took a sip of juice and said, "Don't think I'm gossiping, in fact, I listened to my husband about this matter." Although he is no longer in Xiao Chen's company, the circle of bodyguards is so big, and some things spread quite quickly. Besides, Xiao Chen is my ex-husband after all, and my husband is also more concerned about his affairs. I know that he is worried that Xiao Chen will not be good for me, after all, such a big matter is still a lawsuit filed by lawyer Pei Shaobei Pei, and I didn't expect Xiao Chen to turn over so quickly. ”

Dong Mei's face was a little heavy, her eyes looked at me hesitantly, and I sighed softly, "I have nothing to do with him anymore, if I have to talk about it, Pei Shaobei is only left as my son's father! Dong Mei, I'm not interested in his affairs, besides, where are there any victorious generals, Xiao Chen's family is not vegetarian!"

Dong Mei shook her head after hearing this, "Gu Wan, don't always isolate yourself in the layman, you said that there is no victorious general in this world, so there is no one in this world who really does not eat the fireworks of the world." If you live in the midst of all this noise, you can't be alone. You think Pei Shaobei and Xiao Chen's case has nothing to do with you, but what I heard is different!"

I vaguely guessed something, and I realized it when I saw Xiao Chen and he said that to me. However, the inertia in my heart made me instinctively choose to escape and choose to ignore.

I looked at Dong Mei's slightly furrowed brows, and interrupted her with a smile, "Dong Mei, you wasted so much effort to arrest me, but you couldn't stop Pei Shaobei's prosecution of Xiao Chen, the previous use of life has no effect, is it possible that you have to tell me again now, Pei Shaobei's defeat is because of me? Hehe, I won't be narcissistic to this extent, okay, Dong Mei, let's not talk about those things, I will go to the library in a while, my phone number has been left to you, you can go and play with me when you are free!"

Before the words fell, I felt a little uncomfortable, and then added, "It's inconvenient to go to my house, if you really want to find me, call me!" I don't want my mother to see either Dong Mei or Xiao Chen again, although I can't say that my father's death is blamed on them, but their appearance will definitely bring a very sad past.

I got up and was about to leave, but Dong Mei stopped me, "Gu Wan, can you not always be a turtle with a shrunken head? The truth of the matter is right in front of you, why don't you listen to that?"

I looked at her calmly and didn't smile again. I said, "Dong Mei, sometimes the truth is not important, what matters is whether I still have the courage to accept the truth, and whether I can still believe the truth! I am very good now, I don't want to hear it, I don't want to think about it!"

Dong Mei looked at me, her mouth was half open, and she didn't speak for a long time. I turned away from her gaze, and my face, pretending to be strong, collapsed the moment I walked out of the café. I have to admit that Dong Mei is right, I am a turtle with a shrunken head, a coward who does not dare to step forward in the face of facts.

Dong Mei, Xiao Chen, and Yuan Shao, the abnormalities shown by these three people all made me suspicious of Pei Shaobei's defeat. But I couldn't figure out what role I would play in such a thing. For a moment, I suspected that it was my own departure that made Pei Shaobei decadent and unenterprising, and then let Yuan Shao take advantage of the loophole. That's the only reason that makes sense, but it doesn't convince me.

Who is that person? It's Pei Shaobei, when he received Dong Mei's blackmail call, Pei Shaobei, who handled it calmly, how could he be so decadent that he lost such a big case because of my departure.

I shook my head, laughing at the ridiculous idea, as if to convince myself of a loose heart, and when I came back to my senses, I realized that the people around me were looking at me with neurotic eyes. I was embarrassed and hurriedly lowered my head and walked forward.

There were always a lot of people in the downtown library, so I found a suitable seat, sat down with the professional books I had been looking for for a long time, and got ready to do some research, see what was suitable and how to start the tutoring program.

The environment in the library was quiet, and I tried everything I could, only to find that the English letters were repelling me, and I couldn't read them anyway. I scratched my head irritably, took out my phone from my pocket, flipped out the number of Dong Mei I had just saved, hesitated, and finally edited a text message and sent it.

"What happened in the first place?"
