Chapter 56: I'm Exhausted

Gu Shi'an's mind was confused, and he didn't know what was going on with the man in black who was following her, let alone how Chen Xiao appeared here.

She let Chen Xiao take the things, but she was quite calm, and followed him with her head down.

When passers-by walked by, Chen Xiao looked sideways at her, frowned and asked, "What are you doing in the middle of the night?" ”

Gu Shi'an was in a trance thinking about the man in black. I came back to my senses when I heard him ask. Remembering that if he hadn't appeared in time just now, she probably wouldn't be here now, so she replied in a low voice, "Buy something." ”

Chen Xiao's brows furrowed even tighter, and he asked, "What did you do during the day?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything at this time.

Puzzled by his presence here, she looked up at him and asked, "Why are you here?" ”

Chen Xiao sneered and said, "Didn't you call Assistant Sun?" I took a look at it. ”

Even if he came to see it, he should be on the side of the community. How did you come here? Gu Shi'an's heart was still puzzled.

As if he knew what she was thinking, Chen Xiao glanced at her lightly, and then said, "You weren't there in the past." The doorman said he saw you coming this way. ”

Yes, she met the doorman when she came out, and she said hello.

Gu Shi'an stopped talking now.

Chen Xiao didn't know what he was thinking, his face was gloomy all the time, and he didn't speak. He didn't ask the man in black.

The two of them had their own thoughts, and Gu Shi'an did not speak. When she got downstairs, she reached out to pick up the things in Chen Xiao's hand and said, "Thank you today, I'll just go up by myself." ”

Chen Xiao glanced at her and said, "You are very ungrateful and very fast. Didn't see me hurt? ”

He held out his hand as he spoke.

He never mentioned that he was injured, and Gu Shi'an couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. When I looked at his outstretched hand, I noticed that there was a shallow blood mark on his arm. It should have been injured by the sharp weapon on the man's body during the fight.

She was far away at the time, and the two were fighting in close combat, and she didn't even notice the stubble.

Chen Xiao quickly withdrew his hand, and without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak, he directly carried his things upstairs.

Gu Shi'an didn't stop him at this time, and silently followed him upstairs. Then he took out the key to open the door.

Chen Xiao came here as if he was at his own home, put his things aside, sat down on the sofa, and asked Gu Shi'an to make him tea.

He looked like an uncle, Gu Shi'an endured and endured, took out the medicine box and put it aside, and then boiled water to make tea for him.

She originally thought that he would get his injured arm by himself, but who knew that after boiling water and making tea, she went out, only to find that the medicine box had not been opened at all. Chen Xiao also did not sit on the sofa, but talked on the phone on the balcony.

He didn't know that he was talking to the water, and his voice was low. Gu Shi'an didn't hear it clearly, but he could argue that his tone was not relaxed.

Without calling him, she put the teacup down, then opened the medicine box and took out the disinfectant and the like.

As soon as Chen Xiao turned around, what he saw was that she was fiddling with the medicine box. He paused slightly, then walked back into the living room.

The wound was a little hot, and he sat down and rolled up his cuffs, and washed the wound with disinfectant himself.

The wound was shallow, but it was long. He didn't care about it at the moment, and there was already some blood on his shirt.

The injured person is his right hand, and he is not called Gu Shi'an, and his left hand is clumsy. In the end, Gu Shi'an couldn't see it, so he took the cotton swab and cleaned the wound.

The bandage on this wound is a bit exaggerated, and after cleaning, he took a band-aid and put it on him, and then took out anti-inflammatory drugs and let him take it. Recently, the weather has been relatively hot, and if you are not careful, you can get infected.

Chen Xiao took the medicine without saying a word. He didn't ask about the man in black, and he didn't know what he was thinking, but after sitting for a while, he suddenly said, "Don't go out at night lately." ”

He was a little irritated when he said this, and went straight to the balcony to smoke again.

It was a little abnormal for him to be like this, Gu Shi'an looked at his back, and then packed up the medicine box.

She was shocked into a cold sweat, and regardless of the effect of smoking, she packed up the medicine box and went to take a shower. She thought that Chen Xiao had already left, but he didn't, he was still smoking on the balcony, as if he hadn't moved.

It was obviously wrong for him to act like this, Gu Shi'an was just about to speak, he suddenly turned around, looked at her, and asked, "What is the matter with your call to Assistant Sun today?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that he was still worried about this problem, she didn't plan to tell her about the cemetery, and said, "It's nothing." ”

"Nothing to ask me about?" Chen Xiao walked over and glanced at her.

Gu Shi'an regretted calling a little at this time, and he didn't say anything.

Chen Xiao didn't pursue this topic, pulled the tie around his neck, and took off the coat on his body.

When he saw it like this, he knew that he was not going to leave, so Gu Shi'an had to remind: "It's not early, it's eleven o'clock." ”

Chen Xiao looked at her and said lazily, "I'll live here tonight." As he spoke, he raised his injured arm in front of Gu Shi'an and said, "It's so late, can you bear to let me, an injured person, drive?" ”

Although he was injured, it did not affect his driving. Gu Shi'an's brows furrowed at this time, and he said, "You can call someone to pick you up." ”

Her tone was hard-hearted.

Chen Xiao sat down on the sofa, took out another cigarette to light it, glanced at her, and said lazily: "Daughter-in-law, don't be so unkind." I managed to save you just now. ”

As soon as Gu Shi'an heard his ruffian-like tone, he exploded, and said angrily: "I'm not your daughter-in-law!" ”

Chen Xiao laughed at this time, hooked the corners of his lips evilly, and said, "Is it my daughter-in-law who is not up to you." Do you want me to take out the household registration book and show it to you? ”

Gu Shi'an has always been unable to fight him, so he simply closed his mouth and stopped talking.

Chen Xiao took an inch, dusted off the cigarette ash in his hand, and said, "Daughter-in-law, cook me a bowl of noodles." I'll rush over as soon as I'm done, and I haven't eaten yet. ”

Although there was a joke in his tone, there was a little tiredness between his eyebrows.

Gu Shi'an originally wanted to ridicule him for a few words, but he still didn't say anything in the end. Expressionless, he went to the kitchen.

She was no longer troublesome at this time, and simply cooked a bowl of somen noodles for Chen Xiao. Added two fried eggs to him.

When Chen Xiao went out with noodles, he was already sitting at the dining table, and when he saw the fried egg lying on the bowl, he glanced at Gu Shi'an, and said with a hippie smile: "My daughter-in-law really feels sorry for me, and she specially added eggs to me when she knew that I was injured." ”

Gu Shi'an didn't speak with a dark face, and went to clean up the kitchen after putting it down.

Chen Xiao is a person who will not stop, and for a while he instructed Gu Shi'an to add some salt to him, and then asked Gu Shi'an to pour him a glass of water.

If Gu Shi'an didn't comply, he would raise his injured hand to her. By the way, she was accused of being ungrateful.

When he was full, he leaned back in his chair. Let Gu Shi'an go and put hot water for him. The reason is that it is late at this time, and it is not good for people to rush over. Besides, he has a meeting to start early tomorrow morning, and he can't afford to toss back and forth.

Gu Shi'an's ears had already been calloused by his ingratitude, and he went to put hot water without saying a word.

When she came out, Chen Xiao was still leaning lazily on the chair, and when she saw her come out, she suddenly asked, "Daughter-in-law, do you know who the man in black is?" ”

His eyes looked straight at Gu Shi'an.

He hadn't asked this question all along, and Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to ask it suddenly. was slightly stunned, then avoided his gaze and said, "I don't know." I need to know that I won't call the police sooner. ”

Chen Xiao's eyes narrowed slightly, and he asked again, "Have you encountered something similar during this time?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't know what he meant by asking, and replied no.

Chen Xiao said at this time: "How do I feel that your daughter-in-law is quite calm." Or, do you know who is behind that person? ”

He's got a bit of a bad question.

Gu Shi'an's body stiffened slightly, and he said without raising his head: "I don't know." ”

Chen Xiao didn't ask any more questions, got up and went to the bathroom to wash.

Gu Shi'an stood still and didn't move, and after a while, he walked to the living room and watched TV.

She has so much going on in her head that she can't watch TV. It wasn't until Chen Xiao walked out that she came back to her senses.

There were no stale clothes here, so he came out in a smaller bathrobe. He looked lazy, the straps of his bathrobe loosely tied. A large area of honey-colored skin was revealed.

Gu Shi'an had been in a daze just now, and when he saw him come out, he was about to go back to the bedroom. Who knew that before he stood up, Chen Xiao said, "I have something to talk to you about." ”

He's not a hippie smile. Gu Shi'an looked at him now.

Chen Xiao wiped his hair with a dry towel and said casually: "Give me the key, I will stay here for a few days." ”

When Gu Shi'an heard that he would live for a few days, his brows immediately furrowed, and he said without thinking: "No." ”

She was originally going to draw a line with him, and tonight she was forced to let him stay, where would he stay.

Chen Xiao glanced at her with a smile and said, "I don't do anything to you, what are you afraid of?" Before Gu Shi'an could speak, he suddenly approached her again and said, "Is it because I'm too good-looking?" Daughter-in-law, you're blushing. ”

Probably because he was afraid that Gu Shi'an would get angry, he quickly put away his hippie smile, wiped his hair and sat down on the sofa, and said lightly: "Something happened to me recently, you are still my nominal daughter-in-law, and someone will be unfavorable to you." I don't feel at ease if you're alone here, or you'll go back to your new house. ”

He didn't know if it was true or false.

Gu Shi'an pursed his lips and said, "I won't go out again at night in the future." ”

Chen Xiao glanced at her at this time and said, "If you don't go out, it'll be fine, do you think I'll live here?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't speak at this time.

Chen Xiao continued casually: "Don't worry, I don't live here completely for you. After all, it was because of me, and if you fall into their hands, I won't be able to die without help. I'm living here to make it less of a hassle for me. They must have asked him to come here tonight, and if I hadn't shown up just in time, I would have been preparing the ransom by now. I don't make any money, where is the reason to spend it in vain, right? ”

He seemed to be smiling, paused slightly, and then said: "It's you, daughter-in-law, who didn't even ask that person." Who do you think sent that man? ”

He went around and around and around the bend and turned the bend back here. Gu Shi'an didn't say anything, stood for a while, took a key and threw it to him. With a wooden face, he said, "After the matter is dealt with, the trouble will be returned to me." ”

She didn't say anything after saying this, and went straight back to the bedroom.

Chen Xiao watched her back, and it wasn't until the bedroom door closed that he put the key away. He didn't immediately go back to his room to rest, closed his eyes and leaned back on the sofa to sleep. The smile on his face had long since been put away, and it was terrifyingly gloomy.

After so long, his phone vibrate. He opened his eyes and took a look, got up and took his phone to the balcony to pick it up.

Probably because of Chen Xiaozai, Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep over and over again, and remembered the man in black. She closed her eyes.

She had always thought that the man in black had been sent from there. Chen Xiao's words disturbed her, and now, she wasn't sure if the man in black was caused by Chen Xiao's side or sent by there.

But it was useless to pursue it now, and she restrained herself from thinking about anything. Just lying stiff.

slept late at night, and Gu Shi'an got up late the next day. When she got up, she said that she had to have a meeting early this morning, and Chen Xiao had not yet gotten up, and her coat was thrown on the sofa.

Waiting for her to wash up, he yawned and came out of the room.

Gu Shi'an saw his lazy appearance and became angry, remembering what he said yesterday that he had to hold a meeting early in the morning, so he asked coldly: "Didn't you have a meeting early?" ”

Chen Xiao yawned again, and said lazily: "This is the advantage of being a boss, it's not a matter of being late for an hour or two." After all, it's normal to be stuck on the road for an hour or two during rush hour. He winked at Gu Shi'an and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you quite jealous?" ”

He never blushed when he lied, and Gu Shi'an didn't bother to pay attention to him, and went to the kitchen expressionlessly.

I woke up late, and it took time to make porridge. She directly steamed the steamed buns she bought yesterday for breakfast.

Chen Xiao was not in a hurry at all, he took the milk himself and heated it when she steamed the steamed buns, and then sat at the table and waited for the steamed buns to be served. Where it looks like someone is rushing to a morning meeting.

Gu Shi'an became more and more suspicious of whether what he said last night was true or whether he was lying to her.

After breakfast, Chen Xiao put on his clothes from yesterday, glanced at Gu Shi'an, and asked, "Are you going to the company with me or here?" ”

Gu Shi'an looked at him now.

Chen Xiao glanced at her again and said, "Do you think they are demons and monsters who will only appear at night?" ”

Gu Shi'an was already a little suspicious in his heart, so he asked, "How can they know me?" ”

Chen Xiao sneered at this time, stared at her, and said, "Have you forgotten the time in the Hutong house?" ”

His secrecy has always been done well, and even now, except for a few people close to him, it is estimated that few people in their company know that he is married.

Gu Shi'an stopped saying a word now.

Chen Xiao knew what she was thinking, looked at her and said lightly: "Do you think I'm so boring that I joke about this kind of thing?" ”

He didn't ask Gu Shi'an if he went to the company with him, and left directly after speaking.

Gu Shi'an stayed in the house for a while, and then got up to clean up the kitchen.

It was boring to stay at home, so she cleaned up and looked at the time, planning to go to Chang Yan's side. Who knew that as soon as he opened the door, he saw two strong men standing outside.

She was stunned.

The two of them were polite to her and said, "Miss Gu, Mr. Chen has ordered, let us follow you every inch in the past few days." ”

His tone was respectful and at the same time serious. As long as Gu Shi'an stepped out of this room, they would follow her step by step.

Gu Shi'an still had the desire to go out, so he didn't go out any further.

She was skeptical of Chen Xiao's words, and asked, "What trouble did you Mr. Chen get into?" ”

The two of them probably guessed that she was suspicious of Chen Xiao, and said, "It's not a big trouble. It's just a little tricky. You can rest assured, Mr. Chen will deal with it in a few days. They...... There is no morality at all, so you still listen to Mr. Chen, and don't go out if you have nothing to do these days. If you have something, it will be difficult for Mr. Chen to do it. ”

Gu Shi'an fell silent at this time, nodded, and retreated into the room.

Somehow, she suddenly remembered what happened in the house. She stood still for a moment, and after a while, she went back to her study.

Chen Xiao came back late in the evening, almost eleven o'clock. Seeing that Gu Shi'an was still waiting for him in the living room, he was slightly stunned, then hooked the corners of his lips, threw his suit jacket aside, and said, "Daughter-in-law, is this waiting for me to come back?" ”

He had a hippie smile.

Gu Shi'an didn't answer his words, stood up, and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

Probably didn't expect her to ask like that, Chen Xiao looked at her fixedly, and then said lazily: "I drank a lot of wine." ”

Gu Shi'an didn't say a word and went to the hot meal.

She has been cold to him all this time, which is undoubtedly a bit abnormal. Chen Xiao looked at the orange light in the kitchen, took out a cigarette and smoked it.

Gu Shi'an never went to sleep, and only after Chen Xiao had eaten and washed up did she ask, "Did you track down what happened to the person you kidnapped last time?" ”

After asking Chang Yin last time, she was a little uneasy. Except for this, she couldn't think of how Chen Xiao could have anything to do with those people.

As soon as these words came out, Chen Xiao looked at her with a smile and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you feeling guilty?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't bother with him, he was silent for a while, and said: "I will handle my own affairs......

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by Chen Xiao, and he said lazily: "You think too much." Do you think I will be the kind of person who is selfless and quietly helping others? ”

Gu Shi'an choked this time. Chen Xiao then said lightly: "It's a little matter in the company, and it will be dealt with in a few days." ”

As he spoke, he stood up and went to pour water.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak again, she stayed and slept during the day, and she couldn't sleep at this time, so she watched TV.

Chen Xiao came back not long after, pushed a glass of water and put it in front of her, probably thinking that she was bored at home and listening, and said, "If you want to go out, you can go out with me tomorrow." Beware of getting sick at home. ”

As soon as his words fell, his phone rang. He picked it up and picked up the phone.

The person on the other end of the phone didn't know what to say, he hummed lightly, and when he hung up the phone, he picked up his coat and said, "I'll go out now, and lock the door later." There will be people guarding outside, and no one else will open the door unless I am coming. ”

There was no expression on his face, and after saying this, he walked directly to the door.

He told Gu Shi'an so much that Gu Shi'an's heart was uneasy, but he still stood up, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Where are you going?" ”

Chen Xiao's footsteps paused and said, "Come here." ”

Gu Shi'an walked over now. The corners of Chen Xiao's mouth hooked slightly, approached her, and said, "Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I will come back well." I won't let you be widowed. ”

His tone was very flirtatious, and his mood seemed to suddenly improve. Squeezed his eyes at Gu Shi'an, opened the door and left.

The door was closed by him, and he didn't know what to explain to the people outside, and the footsteps quickly walked away.

Gu Shi'an's heart was pounding, and he still locked the door as he said.

Because of Chen Xiao's advice when she left, she didn't feel sleepy in the first place, and she couldn't sleep now. He lay with his eyes open.

She wanted to call and ask Chang Yin, so she picked up the phone several times and put it down. Finally, I made a call. Chang Yin didn't know if he was asleep or what, the phone didn't get through, it was turned off.

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to put down his mobile phone and listen intently to the movement outside.

The room was eerily quiet, and she could even hear her own heart thumping.

Chen Xiao didn't go out for a long time, but after more than three hours, the sound of the door opening was heard. Gu Shi'an was awake all the time, and almost immediately rolled out of bed.

She was going to go out right away, but she didn't move. She didn't go out until the lights came on in the living room.

Chen Xiao was not the only one in the living room, Assistant Sun was also there. Seeing Gu Shi'an who went out, he was slightly stunned, his body covered Chen Xiao on the side without a trace, and said with a smile: "Miss Gu, haven't you slept so late?" ”
