Gu Xi let people in.

She walked in the direction of the living room, secretly looked at the people behind her with her peripheral vision, and after taking two steps, she felt that her heart still didn't know where it was, and the sun shone down on the living room from the window, and there was nothing to hide, she said, "You sit." But he went around to the kitchen to pour tea.

After grinding and taking out the tea leaves, it suddenly occurred to me that fortunately it was here, this house was clean and new, if it was the previous home, it would be really poor and sour.

The water was poured into the cup, and she was about to go out, but at a glance she saw that the neat tea leaves were still rolled, and when she touched it, the cup was cold...... Forget about boiling water.

Turning to pour water into the sink, she hurriedly pressed the kettle.

Reaching out to cover his forehead, his face burned frighteningly, and he felt like he was sick.

The house was quiet, the sound of the teapot was getting louder and louder, Gu Xi rubbed her stomach, and suddenly felt that her home was too quiet, she was still hungry, what if she screamed in her stomach for a while?

After thinking about it, she hurriedly took out the snack box and filled a plate, but she didn't know how to eat it.

A cup in your left hand, a saucer in your right hand, come out of the kitchen. Cheng Qi was standing in front of the sofa, looking at the painting she threw on the sofa.

Seeing her come out, he said, "This painting shouldn't be hung like this, if it's not fixed, there will be safety hazards when you sit on the sofa, and I'll have someone hang it for you when you go back, okay?" ”

His tone was always so moving, whether it was detached or polite, with a heart-wrenching rhythm, I couldn't help but feel flattered.

Gu Xi pretended to be calm, put the tea on the coffee table and said, "Please drink tea." ”

Cheng Qi looked at her with an inquiry in his eyes, as if he was still waiting, why should he refuse such a small matter?

Gu Xi felt that the flame had burned down her cheeks to her eyes, she pushed the snack plate on the table, and said without looking up, "Have you eaten?" Do you want to have a snack, I made it. ”

Cheng Qi's gaze moved to the snack, yellow, squeezed into a flower, and he couldn't tell what it was.

He sat down on the couch next to him, "You still make snacks?" ”

Gu Xi hummed and said without thinking, "My sister wants to make a mask, as long as the egg white doesn't want egg yolk, I don't want to waste it...... That's it, that's it. ”

Cheng Qi looked at her and felt that the information was too complicated, making masks and snacks could also produce dimensions in this way. He raised his hand, blocked the smile from the corner of his mouth, and said, "Shall I go out to dinner with you first?" ”

These words reminded Gu Xi that the reason why she was hungry was that she didn't want to go out to eat with him, I don't know why, I felt embarrassed to show my appearance in front of this person.

The plate of dim sum became out of reach.

She stood up and walked over to move the portrait to a place so that the sofa could be freed up for Cheng Qi to sit on.

Holding on to the painting, Cheng Qi had already stood up, "Where do you want to put it, I'll come." ”

Gu Xi was annoyed and angry for no reason, so he simply didn't move, pushed to the side, sat down and said, "Say, what is the matter with me?" ”

Cheng Qi saw that the painting was not about to fall, leaning on the sofa, half of the same person with her, a fat and round face, smiling, a slender and vivid her, sitting on the other side of the puffing up.

With a smile, he sat down and said, "There is something I must see you and talk to you." ”

His tone was quite solemn, and he looked at him with pity.

Cheng Qi said: "When Dai Shaodong took over A&C before, Cheng Jin injected capital into Shangbai, and then Shangbai followed A&C to launch a price war and reduce prices on a large scale. Who knew that A&C took the opportunity to launch a new series, high-end products for teenagers, but it made Shangbai suffer a loss, and the gold content of the brand declined. ”

Gu Xi had already listened straightly.

Cheng Qi continued, "Later, Ah Jin was not convinced, and Cheng Si also wanted to help his younger brother, and the two of them thought about setting up a fund to allow students who took the college entrance examination to get free glasses in Shangbai, but Chang Run, who helped them do marketing, said that this was not suitable." So they listened to the consulting firm and used a buy-one-get-one-free strategy. But I didn't expect it...... A&C turned around and used a low-price war in disguise, and it was possible to pay in installments. ”

Gu Xi was dumbfounded.

If he can come to find himself, it means that he knows that behind Dai Shaodong is himself.

She stumbled, she didn't know what to say for a while, of course she knew why Cheng Jin and Cheng Si hated Dai Shaodong, and she didn't like Dai Shaodong, but everyone was just for revenge.

Their revenge is to defeat Dai Shaodong.

But her revenge is too far away, and she is still in the stage of penetrating into the enemy's interior.

Gu Xi was stupid, he didn't expect that everyone would have such an intersection around the circle.

"I ......" she felt her mouth dry, Rao was sharp, and she didn't know what to say.

Cheng Qi handed her the tea, she took it, and drank it. I also forgot that it was the tea she poured for others.

Cheng Qi said again: "By the way, there is also your sister's matter, originally because you took over the house, we thought that if your sister's career development is better, you can also be a little less restrained." ”

Gu Xi nodded blankly, he was in no mood to care about this.

Cheng Qi looked at her, "Something was not done right, but there is a reason for it, I think it is better to talk to you first......" His voice was low, "In the place where I had an accident in Pingcheng...... It is a project that Dai Shaodong has done before. ”

The voice, so low, so deep, was like the snow that night, and she carried him.

Gu Xi's breathing stopped.

Cheng Qi said: "They were engaged in development there, but then they were forced to stop work because of the death of the project, and no one outside knew about it. I had an accident in that place, although the kidnappers have been found, but the key clues in the middle are gone, but this matter, no matter what, has nothing to do with the Dai family, so the Dai family and I have this layer of entanglement. ”

In Gu Xi's mind, it was like a firework exploding.

She has been checking for so long and getting closer, just to get familiar with Dai Shaodong and to find out the truth about the Pingcheng accident, but she didn't expect that someone would simply say it now.

Her excited palms were sweating, and she stood up and said, "I'll go pour you a new glass of water." ”

She went to the kitchen, turned around twice, pressed her hand into a fist on the side of her face, suppressed her excitement, poured a glass of water indiscriminately, came out and put it in front of Cheng Qi, and said, "I'm sorry I ......" She didn't want to tell a lie, said she didn't know? Actually, of course I know.

Cheng Qi said: "It's okay, I'm here to tell you, I already knew about you helping Dai Shaodong, but because Ah Jin usually doesn't have much opportunity to contact these things, I also intend to let him learn something." He's used to making quick money, and I'm afraid he's impetuous. ”

Gu Xi nodded, "I understand, Cheng Jin looks like that, and when I see that my family also loves him......"

Cheng Qi smiled slightly.

But Gu Xi said it casually, with her own plans in her heart, she looked at Cheng Qi, "So, can you sue me for more about Pingcheng?" I want to know what kind of person Dai Shaodong is, and if he is too bad, I will not cooperate with him in the future. ”

"Do you have any follow-up plans?" Cheng Qi is quick-witted.

Gu Xi nodded, "Let me tell you this, it was Gu Nian who helped him take a wedding photo before, and then he suddenly lost his bride, so he thought of asking me to help, because I am a little similar to his girlfriend." ”

Cheng Qi's good-looking brows furrowed slightly.

Gu Xi lowered his eyes slightly, and continued to focus on saying: "Later, I went to Gangcheng with him, and then his family asked him to take over A&C, and I just wanted to open a consulting company, so I took over his work. ”

Cheng Qi said, "I know that you have registered a management consulting company abroad, so I guessed that you helped him, and you did a good job." ”

Gu Xi shook his head, "I have an agreement with him, and my company can't come forward to the outside world...... Before me, I didn't have any connections, let alone background, and no one would believe me when I started a company...... In fact, there is nothing difficult about him. ”

Cheng Qi nodded, with a hint of pity in his eyes.

Gu Xi said: "When I was in Hong Kong City, I also heard the Dai family vaguely mention the accident of the last project, I was not sure, I asked Dai Shaodong, but he didn't say......" She looked at Cheng Qi, she didn't know why, she knew that Cheng Qi would sue her.

Cheng Qi met her gaze, slightly stunned, the eyes were pure, the expectation was soft, he said slowly, "That thing is nothing, just because they requisitioned land, there is a female entrepreneur who is unwilling to relocate, that land, originally the village and the lady signed an agreement, she helped the village to attract investment in the early years, that land was signed to her." Later, the village changed its leadership, and the agreement was forcibly annulled......

Dai Shaodong only found out after signing the contract, but he was also difficult to ride a tiger, and it was originally difficult for them to ask him to do that project. You're working with him now, and you know he doesn't have much experience. He picked up the second cup of water that Gu Xi had poured for him on the table.

Took a sip with a smile.

Gu Xi looked at him stunned.

Cheng Qi said, "Later, Dai Shaodong went to talk in person, but there was an accident in that place that night, and the female entrepreneur was buried alive." ”

Gu Xi's heart was tightly clenched, her fate was said like this, there was something hidden to rush out of her eyes, she asked in a dry voice, "Then do you think it was Dai Shaodong who did it?" ”

Cheng Qi said, "That lady has no relatives and no reason, on the surface, the person is gone, which is a good thing for Dai Shaodong." As a result, he didn't get any benefit. He looked at Gu Xi and said, "So I don't want you to get too close to him, their family is a bit complicated, and that family business is still very big in the eyes of some people." So whoever gets the most benefits is likely to be who did it. ”

Gu Xi shook his head, "Dai Shaodong is too stupid, maybe he didn't expect it to be the ending he is now, sometimes people always have good plans, but when things come out, they will find that it is not like that at all." ”

Cheng Qi was not surprised, in the past half a year, he has a different understanding of this girl, he said, "If you look at it purely from this matter, it is also possible, after all, Tang Niancong is not very smart, the two of them together, it is possible to do anything." But......" He looked at Gu Xi, his tone solemn with hidden worry.

"Don't forget about me, that land is not clean."

Gu Xi looked at him gratefully, she was really grateful, she couldn't believe that she had put so much effort into Dai Shaodong's side and didn't ask about it, Cheng Qi actually told her like this, he trusted himself so much.

Gu Xi stood up suddenly, grateful to the extreme, and said with some excitement, "Are you hungry?" Why don't I make you a meal?! ”

Cheng Qi looked at her, she stood there with a grateful expression, her big eyes were full of expectation, there was a hidden water light, and she looked amazing.

*******

Gu Xi said that cooking is cooking, she is a good hand at cooking.

"My sister likes to eat dumplings, and there is nothing at home, only the things I am going to make dumplings for her, do you like to eat dumplings?" She asked Cheng Qi, and thought of Cheng Jin and said that their family didn't eat noodles except spaghetti.

Cheng Qi was strange, "You want to make dumplings now?" In his mind, making dumplings is too difficult.

Gu Xi said, "You don't like to eat dumplings? Your brother said, "You only eat pasta and nothing else, right?" ”

Cheng Qi smiled, "Let's go out to eat, it's too late, haven't you had lunch yet?" ”

Gu Xi said, "It takes 40 minutes to eat when I go out, I do it now, and I can do it when I have that time." ”

"Forty minutes?" Cheng Qi was obviously surprised by this ultra-short period of time.

Gu Xi took out the flour, "Organic, do you want to eat it at home?" ”

Cheng Jin looked at her, looked at the flour, and she said if she wanted to eat it at "home", of course...... It is eaten at home.

He stepped back a little and said, "Then I'll see you do it." "The gesture is accommodating and inclusive.

It seems that I can't help, but I support you silently.

Gu Xi turned around to get the basin, her hair hung down, scraping a slight itch on her face, she felt uncomfortable, the two of them were not very familiar after all, and when the flour was added to the water, she felt that this mention was not good.

Stir noodles or something, how to stir it to show him.

But I heard Cheng Qi say, "Then there will be time, I'll ask someone to help you hang the painting, where do you want to hang it?" ”

Gu Xi breathed a sigh of relief slightly, and said casually, "Whatever." ”

Cheng Qi went to make a call, and after a while, someone came up with tools and completed the work silently and efficiently. Gu Xi came out to look halfway, and found that the painting was hung on the wall to the right of the door, which was originally empty, but now it looked very tasteful, and moved the side table next to the sofa, and there was an empty flower pot on it.

The portrait is hung in the living room in front of the TV, and it is vulgar to compare.

Cheng Qi said, "It's better to go back here and change to a side table." This flower pot, do you want to raise flowers? ”

Gu Xi looked at the flower pot, it was bought casually because she thought it looked good, white, not a precious thing, and now it was cherished and placed there, and she had a wonderful feeling in her heart, as if she was also being cherished.

The inexplicable encounter was carefully wiped off and placed in a position where it could be reborn.

She muttered, "This is the house that Dai Shaodong gave me." She thought he would care a lot, didn't he say Gu Nian's matter, the dormitory, won't she move there?

Cheng Qi said: "You can live and like it, the house is dead, the key depends on who lives." He looked at Gu Xi and smiled, "Do you like this?" ”

Gu Xi nodded, and inexplicably felt that in the flower pot, he couldn't raise cheap flowers now.

Cheng Qi gently turned the flower pot, and asked Gu Xi again, "Do you want me to help you design the design by the way, I have learned." That smile, that tone, faintly goodwilled.

Gu Xi felt as if he had won the jackpot, and he didn't expect such a person to be dug out of the soil. She went into the kitchen to make dumplings, "Feel free to do whatever you want." ”

But I thought in my heart that men with ability are all-round talents, Hitler also studied architecture, and he had to be handsome in designing a military uniform, so that young people were willing to wear handsome people to fight, and he could be so skillful in fooling people to death. People who have always been successful are not without reason. We must not waver lightly, but see the essence through the phenomenon.

This man will not be ...... just because he saved him Anyway, you have to be sober.

She cut the dough, three or two, and began to make dumplings. Masochistic self-inflicted thinking of himself as a cook.

The pot was filled with water and placed on the fire, and the gas was turned on. The people outside slowly left.

The room was quiet for a while, Cheng Qi walked to the door of the kitchen, and saw Gu Xi hanging his head and concentrating on making dumplings, the technique was simple and high-speed, one in three or two, and the dumplings pinched out were delicate and exquisite.

Quite different from what he had in mind.

He stepped forward, "The dumplings you make are so beautiful?" ”

Gu Xi took a moment and spread out her hand, a small dumpling sat on her hand, rich and round, she pursed her lips, and felt that this little dumpling was full of flattery.

I want people to like it, or take a bite.

She let out a muffled hum and put it down.

The dumplings she makes are always good-looking and small, but she won't be wronged by the people who eat them.

But I heard Cheng Qi say, "These hands of yours ...... How can it be so coincidental? There was a hint of admiration in those words, the Creator's miraculous workmanship.

Gu Xi's heartbeat stopped.

I heard Cheng Qi say, "I can cook and dig people in the soil...... At that time, Cheng Si went to check it himself, at that depth, if it was a pair of hands with ten fingers that did not touch the spring water, he would definitely not be able to dig people out in time. His voice was very slow, and his gaze was fixed on Gu Xi's fingers, "At that time, I kept thinking about what kind of person I should be if I am brave and resourceful, and can still ask me to take revenge......"

Gu Xi's face burned, and he threw the rolling pin, "Do you want to eat?" ”

Cheng Qi was stunned, and he couldn't make a sound when he saw her not moving. It was as if he was saying, and he didn't say anything.

Gu Xi also felt that his reaction was too great, so he took back the rolling pin and said, "I'm hungry, let's eat first." ”

Cheng Qi looked at her silhouette and was stunned. A mobile phone rang in the living room, Gu Xi hurriedly washed her hands to pick it up, and when she saw the name, her expression couldn't help but soften.

"Have you eaten?" She said to the other side, her voice was soft, and the kind of gentleness that she couldn't help but instantly attracted Cheng Qi's attention.

She walked to the kitchen with the phone and whispered, "If you don't come back for dinner, then I'll bring you food in the evening, okay?" Freeze the dumplings for you in the fridge and you can cook them yourself when you come back hungry at night......"

A female voice came from the other end of the phone.

Cheng Qi took a step back, thinking that she still had a younger sister.

I heard Gu Xi say, "You can't cook well...... Then I'll cook it and bring it to you, and fry it when you want to eat it, or heat it in the microwave, okay? ”

Cheng Qi looked at her fixedly, no one had mentioned it in all his report sources, this girl would talk like this, so gentle, he thought she only had very gentle eyes and smiled very gently. She ...... to her sister It's so loved.

Gu Xi hung up the phone and went to wash his hands again.

The dumplings rolled in the pot, she poured a bowl of cold water into it, the noisy boiling level calmed down, and the small dumplings were crowded in the pot.

Gu Xi took a colander and scooped it out. Seeing that he was still standing,

"It's time to eat." She walked out.

Cheng Qi looked up at his watch, "It's really less than forty minutes." ”

found Gu Xi standing still, he walked over, "What's wrong?" ”

Gu Xi looked at his living room, the whole thing was different, the sofa had moved its position, and it was no longer a pattern dominated by a TV wall and a sofa. The white sofa was in the back window, and the wall facing the TV was empty, and below were the two small sofas that were originally scattered on the side.

Cheng Qi said, "It would be nice to hang a bigger painting on the wall another day." ”

Gu Xi didn't know what to say, in the eyes of these people, the artwork on the wall was an inseparable part of the home. But it's so beautiful, and the light shines in from the outside with warmth.

She lowered her head,

I put the chopsticks and moved them again, as if for this person, and I unconsciously had to put them in a more tasteful way.

But I don't know how this taste came uninvited and became a mandatory demand.

"Let's eat." She turned to serve the dumpling soup.

The soup was also served in the most beautiful bowl in her house, but fortunately, in order to take care of herself and Gu Nian, she bought a few good foreign trade defective products.

Sit down

But she felt that she couldn't lift a pair of chopsticks, this person messed up her heart, her love was messy, and so was her life. She used to think that she was very tasteful, and that she was ignorant and narrow to measure a person, but now, she felt that she was not good enough in every way.

"You ...... What does that mean exactly? She forced herself to keep a straight face and make sure she made it clear.

Cheng Qi was already sitting opposite her, she was going to eat, the dumplings were so good-looking, and when she heard this, the chopsticks were placed on the table.

Gu Xi looked at him angrily, complaining and aggrieved, "I said it very clearly that day, what do you mean by being like this?" ”

Cheng Qi looked at her, his eyes were sharp, but his tone was hesitant and dazed, "To be honest, I don't know...... It stands to reason that if you say something like that, I'm definitely not the kind of person I should be stalking about, but...... I don't want to go either, you say, what should I do? ”

Gu Xi pursed the corners of his mouth and looked at him.

Cheng Qi said, "I didn't say it just now, that day, she, she also gave me 20 yuan...... No woman has ever given me money. ”

The corners of Gu Xi's mouth pursed tighter, full of helplessness and joy entangled in nothing to do, she simply stretched out her hand, "Then you return the 20 yuan to me, let's clear it." ”
