The light in the corridor was cold but bright, and she seemed to be in a hurry, and her clothes and hair were messy.

She didn't care about it, but stood at the door. A pair of eyes looked at the elevator entrance.

Chen Xiao didn't come back for a long time, and Gu Shi'an stood for a long time before his body stiffened before he squatted on the ground against the wall.

She didn't call Chen Xiao's number again, just waited.

The security guard said that Chen Xiao has not come back yet, which proves that he still lives here. He'll always come back.

Gu Shi'an thought she would be restless, but she was unexpectedly calm. After staying for a long time, I remembered to send a text message to my aunt to report that she was safe.

The snow was getting heavier and heavier outside, and the cold wind could seem to be heard in the hallway.

The window at the end of the corridor didn't know who opened a gap, and the wind came in and blew Gu Shi'an's hair. She was already in a cold sweat, and her body became even more cold at this moment.

Chen Xiao came back very late, only at three o'clock in the morning. Gu Shi'an was already dozing off in a daze, and immediately opened his eyes when he heard the sound of footsteps.

Chen Xiao drank some wine, but he was sober. Seeing Gu Shi'an, who was squatting by the wall, paused, and quickly walked over. casually asked, "Why are you here?" ”

When Gu Shi'an came, he thought about a lot of things, but at this moment, he couldn't say a word. She fell silent.

Seeing that she was pitiful, Chen Xiao opened the door, glanced at her, and said, "Since they are all here, let's come in." ”

He didn't care about Gu Shi'an, and entered the door after speaking. I changed my shoes and went straight to the bathroom.

The room was a bit messy and not as clean and tidy as it used to be. The ashtray on the small table was full of cigarette butts, and the windows in the room were closed, and there was a smell of smoke.

The garbage in the trash can was not emptied and was thrown everywhere.

Gu Shi'an stood for a while, and stepped forward to clean up the messy small table and the pile of garbage. The house must have been uncleaned for a while, and the instant noodles in the trash can already smelled musty.

Gu Shi'an cleaned them one by one, and then went to open the window for ventilation.

Chen Xiao didn't know what to do in the bathroom, so he never came out. Gu Shi'an was almost cleaned up, and he came out.

His face was not good, slightly pale. As if he couldn't see Gu Shi'an tidying up the house, he asked, "Say, what's the matter?" ”

His tone was a little impatient, and he lit a cigarette and smoked it.

After freezing outside for a long time, Gu Shi'an had already calmed down. He didn't look at him, and said, "It's nothing." ”

Chen Xiao raised her eyebrows, but she went directly to the direction of the bathroom.

The bathroom is also messy, Chen Xiao's clothes are piled up a lot, and I don't know how long it has been since I washed them.

She chose everything that needed to be washed by hand and threw the rest into the washing machine. Then put hot water, and then went out and asked Chen Xiao: "Is it okay for me to stay in a guest room?" ”

Chen Xiao's back was cold, he looked back at her at this time, and asked with a smile: "You want to live here?" Without waiting for Gu Shi'an to answer, he asked again, "Do you think you are welcome here?" ”

In the end, his handsome face was already indifferent. The corners of his lips curled up with a hint of sarcasm, and he said, "Do you think it's funny to be so entangled?" After so many years of entanglement, you are not annoyed? ”

In the past, Gu Shi'an would definitely be silent.

But this time she didn't, she looked up at him coldly, and said, "Which eye of yours saw me entangled?" The bathroom and balcony over there are going to be rebuilt, so come and stay here for a few days. ”

Her tone was serious, and she couldn't tell that she was lying.

Chen Xiao didn't expect her to answer like this, and he was stunned for a moment. The corners of his mouth immediately hooked, and he asked with interest: "Do you think it is appropriate to live with someone who is about to become an ex-husband?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't look at him, and said seriously: "I don't think there's anything inappropriate." After a slight pause, she glanced at Chen Xiao and said, "Didn't you say that you promised your grandmother that she would take care of me?" Is it just talking? ”

After saying this, she didn't look at Chen Xiao anymore, and went directly to the bathroom.

She was particularly sharp today, Chen Xiao took a cigarette and smoked it.

Gu Shi'an quickly took a shower, she had no clothes to wear, so she wore a bathrobe that Chen Xiao had placed in the bathroom. If you tie the strap tightly, you can barely wear it.

It's been too long since I've been back, and looking at familiar things, she is slightly in a trance.

After standing in the bathroom for a while, she went out. Chen Xiao was still smoking at this time, and he hadn't even changed his posture.

Gu Shi'an didn't look at him either, and went straight to the guest room.

Chen Xiao lives in the master bedroom, and no one lives in the guest room. Gu Shi'an took out the quilt and bed sheets and spread them.

Just as he was about to take out the pillow, Chen Xiao walked in, leaned against the door, raised his eyebrows and said, "You really plan to live here?" ”

Gu Shi'an said without raising his head: "I'll go back when I get it over there." ”

"It's inconvenient for you here." Chen Xiao couldn't see that he was angry, and he spoke lazily.

Gu Shi'an naturally knew what he meant, and said without thinking: "Except for meal time, I will only stay in the room." Won't bother you. ”

She was clearly determined to stay. Chen Xiao didn't speak again, turned around and went back to the living room.

Gu Shi'an's body relaxed, and he lay down on the bed after making the bed.

Chen Xiao came back late, and cleaned up the house and washed his clothes, and it was already past four o'clock.

I don't know if it's a little cold or something, her head hurts faintly, and she closes her eyes.

Chen Xiao didn't know whether he slept or not, Gu Shi'an couldn't sleep and got up to go to the bathroom when the lights in the living room were turned off.

It was already past five o'clock when she fell asleep in a daze, and in her sleep it felt like someone was watching her, and she wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't.

She was quite alert, and when it was daylight, she opened her eyes and rolled out of bed. It's quiet outside, and I don't know if Chen Xiaoqi is up.

Her clothes had already been washed, and she had to go out wearing the bathrobe on her body. Open the door and the living room is quiet and deserted. There is no shadow of Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an took the dried clothes and went down to change them, originally planned to make breakfast, only to find that there was nothing in the refrigerator except mineral water.

Although the kitchen is tidy and tidy, it has accumulated a thin layer of dust on the kitchen counter after not using it for a long time.

Gu Shi'an looked at it, but in the end he couldn't find something like noodles, so he had to give up.

If you can't make breakfast at home, you have to go out and buy it, and she doesn't have a key to go out. She stood for a moment, then knocked on the bedroom door.

The bedroom door didn't close, she knocked lightly and it opened. Chen Xiao didn't know when he left, and he was not seen inside. Gu Shi'an didn't hear a sound. She paused for a moment and closed the door.

Since Chen Xiao has left, there is no need to buy breakfast. She didn't say hello to the old lady, she had to go back.

The spare keys used to be kept at the entrance, so she walked over to find the key. The location of the key has not changed, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, looked into the room, and then closed the door and went out.

She took the elevator downstairs, thinking about what she would have to buy when she got back later. The fridge was empty, and I had to buy some food. There are also daily necessities, and the aunt has probably been resigned by Chen Xiao, otherwise it would not have been possible not to come to clean for so long.

Daily necessities and other things, if Auntie doesn't buy them, Chen Xiao won't buy them. He spends only a handful of time going to the supermarket alone.

Also, she has no clothes here. I'll have to go back and clean up later.

Gu Shi'an just got into the car when his mobile phone rang. It was a call from my aunt, saying that there was snow on the mountain, and she asked her not to rush back. The old lady will say it for her.

Gu Shi'an said that it was okay, and asked the old lady if she was awake.

The aunt replied that she hadn't, that she had slept a little more heavily last night. She went to see it several times at night, and she slept well. It's cold this morning, so I should sleep a little more.

Knowing that the old lady was good, Gu Shi'an was more relieved, hung up the phone and started the car.

She never came out of the house, and the car drove out of the parking lot only to find that there was snow in the community. In the distance, the roofs of buildings were snow-white. The branches and grass on both sides were also snow-white.

The roads in the community were cleaned, leaving only a patch of water stains.

When passing by the security booth, Gu Shi'an pretended to ask casually when Chen Xiao went out, and the security guard smiled and said that he went out before dawn. He also said that Mr. Chen has been very busy recently, so he should pay attention to his body.

Gu Shi'an smiled and thanked him, and drove the car out of the community.

Although the snow was heavy last night, the main city has already been sprinkled with salt and shoveled through the snow, and the roads are clear.

There are few vehicles on the mountain road on the villa, and no one gets it. But there was already a car passing by, and it wasn't very slippery for her to follow the car. Much better than at night.

The old lady didn't get up until she went back, and her aunt didn't tell her that Gu Shi'an went out last night. She probably thought she hadn't gotten up yet. I was surprised to see her come in from outside, and said, "Why did you go out so early?" ”

Gu Shi'an smiled and said vaguely that there was something to do and went back.

The old lady didn't ask too much, and asked her aunt to add dishes and chopsticks for her. said that it was cold outside, so let her drink more porridge to warm her stomach.

There were also two servings for breakfast, and Gu Shi'an was made seafood porridge and baked egg cakes. The old lady's is a porridge dish. It's simple.

Gu Shi'an only pretended not to know and didn't ask anything.

She only came here yesterday, and she had said that she would accompany the old lady for a few days. Now I'm going to leave today, and I don't know how to talk to the old lady.

The old lady seemed to see it, and waved her back. Just say it's a weekend. She's used to being pure alone, and she's the same when she's not there.

Gu Shi'an felt guilty in his heart, and repeatedly promised that he would come over on the weekend.

The old lady didn't ask her what was the matter, but only said that the car was left and let her drive back. It's easier to come over.

When the weather is not snowing, it is good to take a taxi, but when the weather is cold, it is biased here, and many drivers are reluctant to come.

It is indeed more convenient to have a car, and Gu Shi'an did not refuse. Promise yourself that you will take good care of the car.

The old lady was amused by her, and when she left, she told her to call Gu Lan next time she came over. The two sisters came over together to have a good time.

Gu Shi'an responded, and babbled to tell the old lady to pay attention to her body when the weather was cold, and then left.

It was much more convenient to have a car, so she didn't go back to Chen Xiao's side, but went back to the side where she lived and packed her clothes. Then I went to the supermarket to buy again.

There are too many things missing from Chen Xiao's side, and it is completely a big purchase. She spent just over two hours in the supermarket. Gave food stored in the fridge for a week.

It wasn't until she had settled the bill and put her things in the car that she realized that she was sweating profusely.

It's past four o'clock, and it's a little early to go back. She went to a dessert shop she used to love to go to and bought some bread before going back.

In the car, she originally wanted to call and ask Chen Xiao what time she would get off work, but she hesitated, but finally did not call. I'm going to go back and cook dinner and call him again.

It was almost six o'clock when I went back, and the car arrived at the entrance of the community, but the security guard did not let her in like last night. Instead, he stood up and said with some embarrassment: "Miss Gu, Mr. Chen said that I can't let you in again." ”

Last night, I was still called Mrs. Chen, but today it has become Miss Gu.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect Chen Xiao to play this hand at all, and he couldn't react for a while. Then he pursed his lips and asked, "Why?" ”

The security guard smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't know if you ask me." This is what Mr. Chen communicated with his superiors. We were ordered not to let you in. Both sides are not easy to offend, the security guard secretly complained in his heart, and said tentatively: "Why don't you call Mr. Chen and communicate well?" ”

This is to let Gu Shi'an not embarrass them.

Since Chen Xiao had said hello, it was impossible to answer her call. There was already a queue behind him, Gu Shi'an smiled reluctantly and turned the car around.

As she expected, Chen Xiao would not answer her phone at all. She pulled over to the side of the road and made a phone call, only to realize that he had blocked her number. It doesn't work at all.

It seems that he has been prepared for this. The spare key was still in the distance, probably just to dispel her guard.

Gu Shi'an put down his phone and drove to Chen Xiao's company.

Outside vehicles were not allowed to enter Chen Xiao's company, so she parked her car outside. All the way to the exit of the building.

It's already time to get off work, and people are coming out of the building one after another. There were also cars coming out of the exit of the parking lot, but none of them were effective.

Gu Shi'an looked up at the whole building, I don't know if it was working overtime or what, the lights on most floors were on.

I don't know how long I'll have to wait. Gu Shi'an got out of the car and planned to ask the security guard if Chen Xiao had left.

When she arrived at the security room, before she could ask, a tall man came out of it, and when he saw Gu Shi'an, he scolded: "What are you doing here!" It's not for you to get in. ”

He waved his hand impatiently like a fly.

In a short period of time, even the security guards have changed. Gu Shi'an's heart sank, squeezed out a smile, and said, "Hello, I want to ask if Mr. Chen is gone?" That's right, some time ago he went to our company to consult a product......"

The big man glanced at her vigilantly, and finally asked, "Which Mr. Chen are you asking?" ”

What this means is that Chen Xun is already here.

Gu Shi'an's face did not change at all, and said: "It's your former President Chen......" She said here and looked into the security room, and said, "Are you a replacement?" I was here the other day, and I don't think I've seen you. ”

The security guard sneered and said, "You said that you were the former President Chen, why did you still come here to find someone?" Hurry up, don't ask if you shouldn't be asking. ”

After he said this, he was about to reach out and push Gu Shi'an. drove her away.

What he meant by this was clearly that Chen Xiao was no longer here. So where is he now? Gu Shi'an's heart kept sinking, and he turned around and left quickly without waiting for him to touch him.

It can be seen that the Chen family is now stricter about the identity of people who enter and leave than before. The car parked on the side of the road is conspicuous. Gu Shi'an drove the car away from Chen's door, and then took out his mobile phone.

She didn't know where Chen Xiao would be, and there was nowhere to find it. I had to dial Assistant Sun's phone.

But Assistant Sun's phone was not connected, and it was still turned off.

Last time, his mobile phone was turned off, so it kept off, which means that the situation is worse than she imagined.

Where can Gu Shi'an sit still at the moment, and immediately dialed Chang Yin's phone again.

Chang Yan picked up the phone after a long while, and Gu Shi'an asked without waiting for her to speak, "Ah Yan, do you know where Chen Xiao will be?" ”

Chang Yan may not know where Chen Xiao is, but she really can't think of where to find Chen Xiao. I can only find a more well-informed Chang Yin.

As soon as Chang Yan heard this, he knew that something must be wrong, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Gu Shi'an then told her what she had just stopped when she went to Chen's and what the security guard said.

Chang Yan also didn't expect that the situation was already so serious, his face became solemn, and he said, "You wait first, I'll call and ask right away." ”

Gu Shi'an responded and hung up the phone.

The waiting time was extremely difficult, she did not give up, and called Assistant Sun again. But it's still off.

Chang Yan called back after more than ten minutes, and said in a solemn tone: "I called to ask, Chen Xiao has rarely been to the company recently." As for the place where you will stay...... I don't know yet. His recent whereabouts have been uncertain and he doesn't frequent. She said as if she remembered something, and asked, "Have you been back to the new house?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't tell her that Chen Xiao had asked the security guards to ban her from entering, only that he wouldn't be there.

He wouldn't let her in, knowing that she would stay there and probably wouldn't go back for a few days.

Chang Yan was silent on the other side of the phone, and asked again, "Where are you now?" I know a few places he used to go to, so I'll go with you and have a look? ”

Now there is no information about Chen Xiao at all, and I can only go and see. But Gu Shi'an knew that there was little hope. Although the city is not big, if you want to hide from no one, it is a breeze.

She nodded yes and asked Chang Yan to wait in the store. She drove over to pick her up.

At this time, it was blocked, and Chang Yan didn't let her pass. The two of them said that they would meet a little bit, and they went over there to meet.

Chang Yan arrived late by taxi, and Gu Shi'an waited for about ten minutes when she arrived, so she hurried over.

The few places Chang Yan mentioned are clubs and bars, which are places where Chen Xiao used to socialize.

Where you used to come, you don't have to come now. The two searched for several stores in a row, but they couldn't see Chen Xiao's figure.

Chen's changes are no secret at this time, although Chen Xiao has always been generous. But there is no shortage of people who fall into the ground. When Gu Shi'an and Chang Yan inquired, someone smiled and said that Mr. Chen might not be able to afford this place now.

However, the managers of two stores left Gu Shi'an's phone number, saying that if Chen Xiao came over, he would contact her. But these should be just kind words.

There was no one in the circle, and Gu Shi'an was even more anxious now. Coming out of the last clubhouse, Chang Yan was silent for a moment and asked, "Will he be in the old mansion?" ”

Gu Shi'an shook his head and said, "Probably not." "He has never reported good news and not bad news, and at this time, it is impossible for him to let Aunt Ye know anything.

But that's also for sure. Ye Qing was not well-informed in the old mansion, as long as he didn't say anything and pretended to be nothing, Ye Qing wouldn't know anything.

Gu Shi'an was anxious, and immediately said, "Go over and take a look." ”

She said as she walked briskly outside. As soon as they reached the door, a group of people came in through the door.

Gu Shi'an walked with her head buried and didn't notice, Chang Yan immediately pulled her sleeve. Originally, he wanted to avoid the side, but who knew that Chen Xun had already looked at it with sharp eyes.

He was originally talking and laughing with the people around him, but seeing that Gu Shi'an was a little surprised, the smile on his face deepened, and he walked over quickly, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there something wrong with my sister-in-law coming here?" ”

He was in high spirits, and the gentle smile on his face was fake like a mask.

This person's scheming has always been deep, Gu Shi'an is no longer even perfunctory at the moment, and said lightly: "It's okay." ”

Where would Chen Xun believe it, he suddenly patted his head, and suddenly said: "Sister-in-law, you have never come here, and now you won't come here to find the class, right?" A few days ago, he said that Gu's ......"

When he said this, he seemed to realize that he was revealing people's scars, and suddenly stopped his mouth and said hypocritically: "No matter how sister-in-law, you can't come to work in this kind of place." This kind of place is not suitable for sister-in-law you. If you don't dislike it, come to me. It's not difficult to arrange a job for your sister-in-law. ”

He spoke earnestly, as if he was really talking to Gu Shi'an.
