So the dinner that night became four people at the same table, in order to avoid the smell of gunpowder on the dinner table too strong, Jia Yi specially sat on one side with Gao Qu, and Yu Ran happily said that it was okay to sit with Sheng Fuyang, who was full of color.

In this way, the four of them can finally eat calmly.

But the atmosphere of the meal was still duller than imagined, Sheng Fuyang threw out a few topics in a row, but no one responded, so he had to give up, and Jia Yi on one side could only reluctantly talk about the event in Nanbin Square when he saw this.

Seeing this, Sheng Fuyang immediately took over the topic and said, "Jiayi, you have a lot of ideas, why do you want to open a store, just come to Sheng's Commercial Center." ”

Jia Yi hurriedly waved his hand and said with a smile: "I just escaped from the company, and I don't want to go back." ”

Yu Ran also smiled and said: "You don't know how hard she used to work in the company, if it weren't for the complicated interpersonal relationship, Jia Yi would be at the level of department director now." ”

Gao Qu picked up the cup beside him and was about to drink water, he looked at Jia Yi sitting next to him, and said, "I really can't imagine that you have become a role model for most young people!" ”

"Most people's role models are people like you, who have a successful career, who are at home in business, and who always get out of the way." Jia Yi raised his glass and touched Gao Qu, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

Sheng Fuyang shook his head and said, "Gao Qu and I are not good role models, we are at best based on relationships, right, Gao Qu?" ”

Gao Qu didn't answer, he put down the cup, as if he was picking something on the plate.

Jia Yi deliberately rounded the field for him, saying, "No matter what the reason for entering this realm in the first place, but after all, you still got to this position on your own, didn't you?" Hahaha......"

Jia Yi soon found that he was the only one laughing at the table, so he secretly cursed in his heart, "Damn".

Sheng Fuyang immediately turned the topic to Yu Ran, he looked at Yu Ran, and said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Feng has been working as a pastry chef in a well-known restaurant in Beijing, how could she think of coming to a small shop like Nanbin Plaza in N City?" ”

Yu Ran smiled faintly and said: "It doesn't matter where you do it, the important thing is to do things with the people you like." ”

She looked at each other and smiled as she spoke, and the two sisters openly squeezed their eyebrows to show their friendship, which made the two men beside them a little baffled.

Sheng Fuyang looked at them hesitantly, and said hesitantly, "Could you be ......?"

Jia Yi immediately shook her head and replied with a smile: "Of course not, I hope so, so that I don't have to worry about ...... because of physical contact."

She didn't go on, but Yu Ran and Gao Qu both knew what she was going to say, especially Gao Qu, who looked at Jia Yi, worried that she would continue to speak, that the secret would be made public, and that the haze would be shrouded in haze again on this face that had finally become cheerful.

Sheng Fuyang, the only person who didn't know, waited for her to continue, especially when she lowered her head, he was even more curious, and said, "What is the physical contact?" Could it be that you are being bullied? ”

As soon as the words came out, Jia Yi suddenly raised his head and shouted in surprise, "What?!" ”

Gao Qu even glared directly at Sheng Fuyang.

Although Sheng Fuyang was not afraid of Gao Qu at all, he didn't dare to continue joking in front of Yu Ran.

"I also said it's impossible, with Gao Qu Gao always here, who dares to hurt you."

His words landed, as if he had pressed a timer on a time machine, and the people at the table were silent, Yu Ran and Sheng Fuyang both looked at Jia Yi and Gao Qu together, and Gao Qu and Jia Yi stared at Sheng Fuyang together, silent for a while, Jia Yi picked up the cup next to him in a panic and drank it all in one gulp, so as to calm his mood.

At this time, Sheng Fuyang and Yu Ran only stared at Jia Yi, as if they had discovered something more strange, and both of them showed surprised faces.

Jia Yi was a little displeased and said, "What's the matter? I ...... Gao Qu" she spoke, and when she looked at Gao Qu, he also looked at herself in surprise, no, to be precise, at the cup in his hand.

Jia Yi looked down, only to realize that the cup in front of him was full of water, and a slice of lemon had just floated, while the other was held tightly in the palm of his hand and had been drunk by himself.

The cup in his hand was Gao Qu's, and he had just taken a sip.

At the most embarrassing moment just now, she took it from his hand and drank it very naturally.

Just when Sheng Fuyang teased her and Gao Qu, her move was undoubtedly attached with a lot of inexplicable meanings.

I can't tell the truth, but I am not unfamiliar, and I even have a sense of familiarity that has been around me for a long time, and at this moment it seems that I have finally taken off the so-called habit or casual coat, and I see each other sincerely, and even the parties concerned can't help but want to examine it carefully.

At least Gao Qu Yes, at that moment, he did magnify all the interactions related to Jia Yi in his mind.

-- From the first time we met on WeChat, promised to help open the store, deliberately went to Qiao Le's birthday scene, heartache for her past, worried about her deep love for another man, looked forward to her smile, and always found an excuse to go to the store to see her, a seemingly smooth and natural contact began to be ambiguously rendered, and the memory was re-edited without the slightest falsification.

He suddenly became worried, didn't he get involved with her because he was protecting Xiao Yin?

And Jia Yi's face was already flushed, and she faintly felt that what she had just eaten seemed to be surging up in her stomach in an instant, and everything was drilling up, and her mouth began to be tasteless, no, it was a disgusting smell after burst.

Gao Qu on the side could clearly feel her rapid gasp, and he whispered, "Are you okay?" ”

Jia Yi turned her face sideways and wanted to respond, but at that moment, there was no surprise and the concerned eyes collided, she saw her own shadow in those eyes, and her heart was stirred by an invisible hand.

She had no choice but to close her eyes desperately, swallow hard, and quickly get up and go to the bathroom.

Seeing this, Yu Ran hurriedly put down the things in his hand and accompanied her.

Sheng Fuyang also stood up, he looked at Gao Qu who was sitting in his seat, and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Gao Qu's eyes never left the direction of the bathroom, he naturally knew what was wrong, but he thought he would be very proud or happy about it - after all, she felt his "intimacy" again.

However, no, he was sad, his heart was tightened, and something else was squeezed out in an instant, only her, only her, only her was enough to overload his heart.

After sending Jia Yi and them back to the apartment, Gao Qu did not go to the small stone building, but returned home.

He was full of worries, tossing and turning, but he couldn't sleep in his room, so he had to get up and go downstairs to get some air. It just so happened that his father was looking through the patient's information, and there were several thick and old medical books on the desk.

Gao Qu's father Gao Han was a well-known internist in N City Hospital, but he was born poor and could not get the approval of his grandfather, so he was excluded by the major hospitals in N City, and could not enter the hospital with an iron rice bowl like most medical students, fortunately, Gao Qu's mother Qu Yalan was resolute in love, and the two overcame many obstacles and worked together to establish this small community clinic, Gao Han was a doctor, and Qu Yalan helped collect the bills, do some paperwork, take care of Gao Qu by the way, and also learn to do some nursing, and help take care of patients when the clinic is busy.

Gao Qu failed to become a doctor because of blood sickness, and he has always been haunted by it. But the old doctor didn't feel any regrets, he always supported Gao Qu to make any decision, but he didn't say much in person.

Seeing that Gao Qu was still coming down from upstairs late at night, Gao Han lifted his reading glasses on the bridge of his nose, put down the information in his hand, and said, "What's wrong?" ”

"Dad, there's something I want to ask you......" he said hesitantly.

Gao Han pointed to a chair opposite and said, "Sit and say." ”

Although the stool was only for patients to sit on, at this time, he felt that it would be better for him to follow his instructions and restore his father's sense of professionalism as a doctor.

"I have a friend who has a phobia of heterosexual intimacy, she is very afraid of contact with men, especially when she feels some intimate movements of men, even if it is just eye contact, she will unconsciously begin to resist, the specific symptoms are, nausea, shortness of breath, nervousness, body trembling slightly, unconsciously away from the people around her......"

Gao Han looked at his son from the frame of his glasses, and said with a smile: "The opposite sex she came into contact with is you, right?" ”

"Dad, ask you about business!"

Gao Han frowned and pondered for a while, and said, "I'm afraid there is any psychological barrier, ask her if she has any bad experiences in the past, such as being bullied and family factors...... All of these may make a woman feel resistant or allergic to the actions of the opposite sex. ”

"Being bullied?" He thought of this first, because Sheng Fuyang also mentioned this during the day, and Jia Yi's reaction at that time was indeed not small, thinking about it like this, Gao Qu frowned and muttered to himself: "Is it sexual assault?" ”

Gao Han still heard it, and said: "Not necessarily, but it is also possible that such victims are most likely to resist the opposite sex who approaches them, and those reactions are likely to be a kind of self-defense." ”

Gao Qu's ctrained heart was painful, and he didn't speak for a long time, Gao Han saw his son's worries, so he persuaded: "I'm not an expert in this area after all, if she is very important to you, you can take her to a special hospital to see, maybe not." ”

Gao Qu nodded blankly, did not speak, lost his mind, groped his way up the stairs, and that night, he couldn't sleep at all.

It was the first time he was so distressed and uncomfortable for a woman who had no direct relationship with him, and he couldn't sleep all night.

This insomnia directly led him to be listless and confused in the meeting the next day, while Sheng Fuyang took the opportunity to talk about the achievements of the commercial operations department last year and the progress of the work in the new year in the report of the headquarters meeting.

But he didn't take Sheng Fuyang's high-profile competitive actions to heart, because his heart couldn't tolerate these at the moment.

There was only one person's shadow in his mind, and that shadow was like Jiayi, but not like Jiayi, it was a Jiayi who was unclothed, hiding in the corner and shivering, with tears on his face.

He remembered the Korean movies "So Won" and "The Melting Pot" that he had watched a long time ago......

Those fragments were on a rampage in memory, and their sharp edges and corners cut through any part of his inner softness, but he couldn't bear to crumple them into a mess and throw them out of the garbage can, because he desperately wanted to know the truth, and he even wanted to speculate about Jiayi's past from those movie characters.

But the things in his mind were too crazy and too difficult to accept, so he finally couldn't sit still, picked up the key on the table, gave his assistant a few words, and hurried out of the office.

He came to the Jiayi shop, and as soon as he stepped into the door, he saw a scene that shocked him......
