Chapter 121: Don't You Like Me?
He quickly came to his senses, went back to the bedroom and changed his clothes, and then went to the dining table and sat down.
His face was still pale, but it was much better than last night.
Gu Shi'an served him porridge, looked at him cautiously, and asked tentatively, "Are you okay?" ”
She slept on the couch all night and didn't hear anything from the bedroom. However, with Qin Tang's character, even if it is uncomfortable, it may not make a sound.
Qin Tang nodded at this time and said, "It's okay, I've drunk too much wine." His tone was understated, as if he hadn't taken it to heart at all.
Gu Shi'an also sat down, filled himself with a bowl of porridge, and said, "If your stomach is upset, drink less." If you drink it, it is difficult to recover from stomach problems. ”
Qin Tang glanced up at her and asked, "Is this your experience?" ”
Gu Shi'an thought that he would ask such a question, he was somewhat embarrassed, touched his nose, and said, "No, I rarely drink." ”
Qin Tang stopped talking now. After a while. Only then did he ask: "My company is now recruiting assistants, if you do well and have the opportunity to go abroad for further study, do you want to come and try?" ”
This is the second time he's asked her to work at his company.
Gu Shi'an didn't know if he already knew his current situation in the company, but he still squeezed out a smile, sighed, and said, "I don't want to change places for the time being." ”
Qin Tang looked at her at this time, and after a gap of five or six minutes, he asked, "How long do you plan to stay in the data room?" ”
He already knew about her situation.
The smile on Gu Shi'an's face was put away now, he didn't look at Qin Tang, lowered his head and stirred the porridge in the bowl, and didn't speak.
She didn't speak, Qin Tang didn't speak anymore, and waited for Gu Shi'an's porridge to eat half of it, and then he said: "It's not a way to compromise and seek perfection. If you are going to move forward, you have to fight back. If you intend to end there, you don't have to waste any more time. ”
Gu Shi'an naturally understood what he meant, so he nodded.
Qin Tang did not continue on this topic.
For the rest of the day, no one spoke again. Gu Shi'an still had to go to work, and after eating, he was about to say goodbye, Qin Tang said lightly: "I also want to go to the company, and I will send you over by the way." ”
Gu Shi'an said: "No, it's still early, I still have more time to pass." Won't be late. ”
Qin Tang didn't speak, picked up his coat and walked out first.
Gu Shi'an had to follow behind him now.
There was a driver in the parking lot who had been waiting for a long time, and when he saw the two drivers, he stepped forward and opened the door. Qin Tang waited for Gu Shi'an to get into the car, and then sat in the car.
He didn't speak, and the car drove out of the parking lot before he spoke: "I asked people to check the matter on the old lady's side, but I haven't found anything for the time being." I have tactfully reminded the old lady. She didn't respond. It should have been arranged in advance. ”
The Chen family is a mess, but the Gu family is also not much better. Her eldest aunt and third aunt who moved out are now often looking back at their old house.
Gu Shi'an's mind was a little messy, and he didn't even know why the old lady would release the news that she was going to divide the shares.
Perhaps, she knew that there was something wrong with her father's death? Deliberately......
This thought popped up in Gu Shi'an's mind, and he immediately suppressed it again. No way? She didn't show anything, and the old lady hadn't discovered anything for so many years. How did you suddenly find out?
Her mind was so chaotic that she couldn't figure it out for a while.
Qin Tang paused slightly, and then said: "Don't worry about the safety of the old lady, no one will do anything before everything is clear." ”
And Gu Shi'an's father's affairs have passed for so many years. Although there are suspicions, it is undoubtedly difficult to investigate. Only wait for the right time.
Gu Shi'an was kidnapped on the mountain, he has been investigating, but the other party's arrangements are thorough, although he went back to the mountain again, and went to the place where Chen Xiao found Gu Shi'an, but there were still no clues.
That person was meticulous, whether it was in the cave, or on the rope that bound Gu Shi'an, or on the nearby grass and trees, there were no fingerprints.
It was raining at that time, but there were so many people looking for it that it was difficult to find footprints. It's like you're in a puzzle, and you don't even know how to break through. So far, there is no object to be suspected. He didn't even know when the other party would do it if he wanted to do it.
Gu Shi'an's heart was heavy, he nodded, and said thank you in a low voice.
Qin Tang didn't speak until Gu Shi'an was worried about the old lady, and when she got out of the car, he told her not to worry. His people have always been paying attention to the Gu family's old mansion.
Qin Tang was a little different from before, although it was still morning, his eyebrows were already tired. After saying this, without waiting for Gu Shi'an to say anything, he asked the driver to drive away.
Gu Shi'an's mind was chaotic, it was still early when he arrived at the company, and Xiao Wang had not yet arrived. She sat at her desk for a while, trying to get to work, but she couldn't concentrate at all. She sat with her phone for a while, but finally dialed the old lady's number.
It didn't take long for the phone to be connected, but it wasn't the old lady who answered it, but the aunt at home.
Gu Shi'an asked about the old lady, and she replied that the old lady was still resting. Gu Shi'an said that he would go over to see the old lady after work in the evening.
The aunt smiled and said, "The old lady plans to go to the temple for two days, and her things have been packed up, and she will leave at noon later." You'd better wait until you get back. ”
Since the old lady of the Gu family left, the old lady did have the habit of going to the temple to live. But it was all on the old lady's death day. And now there is more than a month before the death day.
Gu Shi'an was slightly stunned at this moment, and asked, "Why does grandma suddenly want to go to the temple to live?" ”
The aunt replied, "The old lady dreamed of the old lady a few days ago. I've been saying that I'm going to live in the temple for several days, but I haven't been able to go. Last night, I said that today passed. ”
Since it has been said for several days, this shows that the old lady did not want to pass over temporarily. Gu Shi'an nodded at this time, a little relieved.
She still wanted to ask something from her aunt, but when she couldn't ask anything, she said a few words of greeting and asked the old lady to call her if she had anything, so she hung up the phone.
The temperature on the mountain is a little different from that in the city, Gu Shi'an looked at the weather forecast for the past few days, and saw that the weather was fine, so he was relieved. It's Thursday, and she's thinking about going to the temple on the weekend to pick up the old lady back.
With this decision, she was a little relieved. I started to organize the information.
Without intrigue, the time to go to work flies. It's time to get off work in a blink of an eye. She was just about to get off work. Chang Yan called. said that she would go back to the courtyard tonight, she hadn't been back for a few days, and she planned to go back to have a look.
Gu Shi'an responded with a good word, paused slightly, and asked Chang Yan to keep busy with her, don't worry about her.
Because the old lady passed away, she hadn't paid attention to Chang Yin's life for a long time. In fact, even if she paid attention, she wouldn't notice anything at all.
Chang Yin won't tell her anything.
Chang Yin didn't go back, Gu Shi'an was a little empty. I didn't take the car, so I walked along the way home. When I saw a food stall on the side of the road, I stopped, ate, and got into the car.
There was a traffic jam on the road, and it was already past nine o'clock when she returned home. She was a little tired, and more empty. There were so many things on her mind that she couldn't figure it out.
She stood in the dark for a moment, then turned on the light. She had planned to take a bath, but suddenly she had no desire to move. When she opened the refrigerator and saw that there was still beer in the refrigerator, she took out a few cans, sat down on the floor and began to drink.
She didn't drink as much as she used to, and when she was slightly drunk, she didn't drink anymore. Get up and go to the bathroom to take a shower.
Probably because of the drinking, my brain is a little dull. As if it couldn't be turned anymore, those messy things without a clue were temporarily suppressed.
She didn't even blow her hair when she came out of the shower, and fell directly on the bed.
Gu Shi'an was woken up by a knock on the door when he was in a daze, and the knock was one after another. At first, she thought it was next door, but after listening to it for a long time, she felt as if she was knocking on her own door.
She got up and took out her phone to check the time. It's past twelve o'clock.
She thought it was Chang Yin who had gone over and came back, so she got up and put on her slippers to open the door.
There was still a knock on the door, and when she opened it, it was not Chang Yan outside the door, but Chen Xiao, who was drunk.
Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment. When she opened the door, the neighbor next door also opened it, apparently woken up. Seeing that Gu Shi'an had already opened the door, he didn't say anything, closed the door and went back.
Gu Shi'an was about to ask Chen Xiao how he came here, but before he could speak, Chen Xiao walked directly into the house.
She was meant to stop him. But he was afraid that he would make a noise and make noise to the neighbor next door, so he still let him enter the door.
Chen Xiao was familiar with this place, and stumbled towards the sofa.
Gu Shi'an let him go inside, and when he saw him sit down, he asked coldly, "What are you doing here?" ”
Chen Xiao ignored her, closed his eyes and leaned on the sofa. Reaching out and loosening the tie at the neckline, he said, "Pour me a glass of water." ”
His tone was the same as usual, like an uncle.
Gu Shi'an didn't move, just looked at him. Repeated, "What are you doing here?" ”
She was tired, and she didn't even want to see Chen Xiao's face.
As if he hadn't heard, Chen Xiao casually threw the torn tie aside, unbuttoned the collar of his shirt, and said inarticulately: "If you are thirsty, pour water." ”
Gu Shi'an had never seen him drunk like this, he endured it and endured it, and finally stepped forward to take a glass of ice water and put it in front of Chen Xiao.
Chen Xiao still knew that he was holding a glass of water and drinking water. He must have been thirsty. He drank a glass of water in one go, then pushed the cup forward and said, "I want to." ”
Gu Shi'an didn't say anything, and stepped forward to pour him a glass of water.
This time, he only drank half a glass.
Gu Shi'an looked at him coldly, waited for him to put down the cup, and then asked, "Are you in the wrong place?" ”
Chen Xiao didn't know if he was really drunk or what, so he didn't answer her words. He rubbed his eyebrows and yelled hard about his headache.
He has always been very good at acting, and Gu Shi'an looked at it so coldly. It took two minutes. Seeing that he was still rubbing his head, he said, "The water has also been drunk, should you also go?" ”
Chen Xiao still didn't seem to hear it, he only knew how to rub his head.
Gu Shi'an's fingers were clenched tightly, and when it came to playing scoundrels, she was naturally not Chen Xiao's opponent. She simply ignored him, took a breath, and let go of her clenched fingers. simply ignored him, and walked directly to the bedroom.
He's drunk now, and she can't get rid of him. If you can't leave, you simply don't call, and when you wake up tomorrow, he will always leave.
Gu Shi'an's footsteps hadn't taken a step yet, and he had just turned around, when Chen Xiao, who had been rubbing his head on the sofa, suddenly reached out and grabbed her.
Where did Gu Shi'an think that he would make a sudden move, he was not prepared at all. As soon as he leaned over, he fell on the sofa, just pressing on Chen Xiao's body.
Her head hit Chen Xiao's chest with a muffled thud. She snorted muffled, and was about to struggle to her feet.
But Chen Xiao seemed to feel no pain, and tightly imprisoned her in his arms. He muttered, "Don't you like me?" ”
He hugged Gu Shi'an tightly, and looked at Gu Shi'an with a pair of eyes like a child.
From the beginning, whether it's love, or love. She had never heard such words from his mouth.
Gu Shi'an was a little dazed, and a dull pain spread along the nerves. She was in a trance for a moment.
But in an instant, she came back to her senses. didn't answer Chen Xiao's words, and struggled to break away and get up.
Where would Chen Xiao let her break away at this time and hug her tightly. One hand pressed Gu Shi'an's head. I'm going to kiss her.
Gu Shi'an was already tired, and he was already unwilling to have any entanglement. I struggled with all the strength of my body.
The sofa was already narrow, and the two fell from the sofa to the ground under her desperate struggle. Chen Xiao's head hit the small table and made a thud.
He snorted. Gu Shi'an took advantage of his pain, and bit him on the arm that was tightly clasped around him.
originally thought that Chen Xiao would push her away, but he didn't. As if he didn't feel pain, he hugged her so tightly. It was as if he was going to rub her into the blood and bones.
Gu Shi'an was ruthless, until the smell of blood in her mouth dispersed, Chen Xiao still didn't let go of her hand, and she let go of her mouth in frustration.
Chen Xiao hugged her so tightly, and after a long while, he muttered again: "Gu Shi'an, didn't you say that you like me?" ”
In the silence of the room, his voice tinged with exhaustion.
Gu Shi'an closed his eyes tightly, and after a long while, he spoke: "I'm tired, I can't like it." ”
A wave of fatigue rushed over her, and for a moment, she just wanted to close her eyes and fall asleep.
originally thought that Chen Xiao would let go of her when he heard this, but he didn't. When Gu Shi'an opened his eyes to look, he found that he had closed his eyes and let out an even breathing sound.
His face was slightly red in the dim yellow light, obviously drunk.
Gu Shi'an didn't care about her, reached out and took away the hand he was holding her little by little, and stood up.
She didn't have any expression on her face, and she didn't look at Chen Xiao again, and walked directly to the bedroom.
Probably because there is still a residual sense of alcohol in his nerves, the whole person is extremely fragile. She looked at the ceiling in the darkness with her eyes open.
Suddenly, I remembered what Chen Xiao had just asked her.
She was tired and couldn't afford to like it anymore. She didn't even know if she would have liked someone if she had known that it would be so tiring to like someone.
The corners of his eyes were inexplicably moist, and Gu Shi'an closed his eyes tightly.
Sleeping on the ground in this weather will catch a cold, Gu Shi'an has been lying on the bed for so long, but he still got up and took the quilt out.
Chen Xiao was still lying on the ground, sleeping soundly, and he hadn't even changed his posture.
Gu Shi'an called him twice without waking him up, and reached out to pull him up from the ground. It was a bit of a struggle for her, but fortunately he cooperated and didn't move.
Gu Shi'an threw him on the sofa, he just rolled over, opened his eyes and glanced at her, and continued to sleep.
Gu Shi'an didn't care about him anymore, turned off the light in the living room, and went back to the room.
When Chen Xiao woke up the next day, Gu Shi'an was no longer in the house. He just moved. My head hurt when I hit the small table last night. It's a big bag.
He didn't know what was in his mind, and he didn't move for a moment. I didn't bother with the bag. After a few strokes in his purse, he found a cigarette from his pocket, and found a lighter, and lit it.
The headache after the hangover was a bit terrible, and he took a puff of cigarette and leaned motionless on the couch.
The room was so quiet that he didn't know how long it took for him to stand up. I went to the bathroom and washed my face with cold water, and stood in the living room for a while before closing the door and leaving.
Outside, it was gloomy, and the light in the hallway was dim. Chen Xiao went downstairs all the way, and when he reached the staircase of the downstairs, he stopped again. Just standing with a cigarette in his hand.
It wasn't until there was a sound of footsteps coming down from behind him that he stepped aside.
Although he had drunk a lot of wine last night, the car was parked downstairs. He didn't even know how he drove the car over.
When I got into the car, I just closed the door when my mobile phone rang. Chen Xiao looked sideways and saw that it was Assistant Sun calling.
It took him a moment to pick up the phone.
picked up the phone, and before he could speak, Assistant Sun over there breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You finally answered the phone, I was about to be scared out of my heart attack." ”
Before Chen Xiao could speak, he continued: "You drank so much wine last night and drove away without saying a word, and you didn't answer the phone. If you don't answer the phone, I'll go to the police station to call the police. ”
Last night's incident. There are many Chen Xiao who can't remember anymore. Assistant Sun didn't talk to him about this verbosity, and waited for him to finish before he asked, "What's the matter?" ”
Because of the hangover, his voice was slightly hoarse.
He was cold and indifferent, Assistant Sun didn't dare to talk nonsense, and hurriedly said: "There is a meeting in the morning, you drank too much last night, if you can't come, I'll change the time." ”
Chen Xiao raised his wrist to look at the time and said, "No, I'll be there in a while." ”
After he said this, he didn't talk much nonsense, and hung up the phone directly.
At this time, he realized that there were many missed calls on his mobile phone, most of which were made by Assistant Sun. He ignored it, tossed his phone aside, and closed his eyes. It took a few minutes before the car started again.
Weekends come quickly, but time is in the blink of an eye. After getting off work on Friday, Gu Shi'an simply packed a few clothes.
She originally wanted to call the old lady first, wanting to surprise the old lady, but in the end she didn't call.
Chang Yan hasn't been here these days, and the house is deserted. In the corner of the sofa there is still a tie that is old. She only took it out when she was tidying up.
Chen Xiao has not come back since that day, nor has he called her. Such a tie, he probably forgot it a long time ago.
There are so many of these things that I am afraid that even he himself will not remember that he lost them. Gu Shi'an didn't put it away and threw it into the trash.
Because he had to get up early the next day, Gu Shi'an went to bed early at night. Lying in bed, she thought she couldn't sleep. Who knew that it wouldn't be long before I fell asleep.
To get to the temple, she had to change trains twice, and she got up at seven o'clock. Then he closed the door and went downstairs.
Because it was a weekend, the community was still deserted at this time. There are only a few old people who get up early in the morning exercise.
The bus was also deserted, with people who got up early to work overtime yawning and talking on the phone. The city has come to life in the morning light.
Gu Shi'an looked sideways out of the window all the way, and when the car arrived at the terminal to transfer, she bought breakfast on the side of the road.
The bus to the suburbs was empty at first, but halfway through it became more crowded. As soon as there were too many people, the car was stuffy.
Gu Shi'an was a little motion sick, his chest was very tight, and he finally arrived at the station, and almost got out of the car as soon as the door opened.
It's uncomfortable in the stomach. She took out the water and just took a sip when her phone rang. She took out her mobile phone, and the call was an unfamiliar call, and she didn't know who it was so early in the morning.
Gu Shi'an looked at it and picked it up. Hello.
No one spoke on the other end of the phone, she fed again, and Chen Xiao's voice came from the other end of the phone. His tone was cold and indifferent, and he said, "I have something left on your side." When you're here, I'll go get it. ”
He has a businesslike tone.
