Chapter 227: Powerless

He guessed the purpose Chinese of Gu Shi'an's coming, but in fact, he just wanted to show his ability.

Alms from above. In the past, he had always been polite and low-key and forbearing, but now he has achieved his goal.

Of course, you have to show it off. Gu Shi'an's face was a little sarcastic, and he didn't want to waste time with him here, so he said thank you, and walked directly past him and walked outside.

Chen Xun had already shown his generosity, as if he didn't feel embarrassed, and talked to the people around him all the way upstairs.

There was a sycophant next to him who asked who Gu Shi'an was, and the corners of Chen Xun's mouth raised. He didn't need to answer, someone patted him on the back.

Gu Shi'an and Chang Yan didn't stop, they got into the car all the time, and Chang Yan said at this time

"The bodyguards around him are the people around Xiao Si." Although she hadn't had much contact with Xiao Si, she had seen a lot of people around her.

Since Xiao Si is willing to be a person, it proves that he and Chen Xun are hooked up. Xiao Si's power in Lincheng should not be underestimated, and when the two joined forces, it was no wonder that they would quietly change the Chen family's sky.

Gu Shi'an's fingers clenched tightly. It took a while before the car started. This time he didn't stop any longer, and went straight to the old mansion.

No one spoke along the way, but Chang Yan received a few phone calls. But I don't know where Chen Xiao will be now.

It hadn't snowed for a while, but the car was halfway through and snow was falling in the sky again. When Gu Shi'an and Chang Yan arrived at the old mansion, it was already past twelve o'clock, and they were afraid that Ye Qing would be worried when they saw Chang Yan and Gu Shi'an together.

In the end, Chang Yan was waiting in the car, and Gu Shi'an went in alone. It was so late, the lights in the old house were still on, Gu Shi'an pressed the doorbell, and it didn't take long for an aunt to come and open the door.

Although Gu Shi'an has not come here many times, she knows her. hurriedly beckoned her into the house.

Gu Shi'an didn't ask Chen Xiao directly, but asked Ye Qing if he had slept. The aunt replied that it was not yet, the weather was cold and the night was long.

Recently, she's knitting sweaters and sleeping late. Ye Qing was surprised to see Gu Shi'an, and immediately put down the sweater in his hand and stood up.

Asked

"I don't have to make a phone call when I come over. It's so cold outside, don't freeze. As she spoke, she asked her aunt to pour Gu Shi'an a cup of hot tea.

probably thought that Gu Shi'an came by car by himself. Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and said that he was not cold.

The hands are warm. Where would Ye Qing listen to her, while letting her sit down, urging her to drink tea to warm her body.

Seeing Gu Shi'an drink the tea, she was going to make her supper in person. He said as he walked into the kitchen

"Come here, why don't you come with Chen Xiao. He was the same today, and he came over by himself without even making a phone call. Fortunately, I went out in the morning to buy groceries. "Chen Xiao turned out to be here.

Gu Shi'an tried not to behave abnormally, looked around, and asked casually

"Is he still there?" Ye Qing nodded and said

"Yes. I don't know what I'm busy doing in the study, and I haven't come down to eat. I didn't come down to eat until after ten o'clock, and I didn't know if I slept at this time. She wanted to see Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiaohao, and asked tentatively after speaking

"I shouldn't have slept, Aunt Ye went to get you something to eat, why don't you go up and have a look?" Although she rarely asks about things between the two, she has always been worried.

It's all here, of course, to create a chance for the two to be alone. Gu Shi'an was already anxious, and tried his best to keep calm and responded.

Turn around and go upstairs. As soon as he turned around, he saw Chen Xiao appear at the top of the stairs. His handsome face had a faint expression, one hand in his trouser pocket, I don't know if he heard the movement and guessed that it was her or what, and asked lightly

"What are you doing here?" The atmosphere was slightly stiff, and before Gu Shi'an could speak, Ye Qing came over to relieve the siege.

She pretended to be unhappy and glared at Chen Xiao and said

"Isn't it okay for Shi'an to come and see me?" She said and pushed Gu Shi'an and said

"Go sit down first, Aunt Ye will make you something to eat." As she spoke, she looked at Chen Xiao on the stairs again, and motioned for him to come down and accompany Gu Shi'an.

Chen Xiao obviously didn't want her to worry, but walked down. sat down opposite Gu Shi'an.

glanced at the kitchen and confirmed that Ye Qing couldn't hear anything, so he glanced at Gu Shi'an and asked

"What are you doing here?" It was obvious that such a big thing had happened, but the expression on his face was faint.

I don't see anything out of the ordinary. Gu Shi'an's fingers curled together, and after a pause, he looked up at him and asked

"Are you sure you want to talk here?" He obviously didn't tell Ye Qing about these things. If he told Ye Qing, Ye Qing probably wouldn't be as calm as he is now.

Chen Xiao was smart, he didn't speak at this time, just took out a cigarette and smoked it slowly. Gu Shi'an had just come in from outside, probably because he was afraid of being frozen.

Ye Qing didn't take long to boil a bowl of brown sugar eggs. knew that Chen Xiao didn't like sweets, so he didn't make his share.

put it in front of Gu Shi'an, urging her to eat quickly. Gu Shi'an couldn't eat it, so he picked up the bowl and ate a few eggs under Ye Qing's enthusiasm.

Chang Yan was still waiting in the car, and she ate quickly. After eating, Chen Xiao immediately stood up and said

"Aunt Ye, it's not early, you rest early, let's go back." He used 'we', which was obviously happy in Ye Qing's heart.

But it was too late, she said tentatively

"Why don't you rest here tonight?" Chen Xiao smiled and said that it was okay and said

"It won't be long before I go back." Ye Qing naturally wouldn't stop the two of them from getting along alone, and was afraid that Gu Shi'an would have something to do with coming so late, so he tentatively asked a few words and was completely relieved after being prevaricated by Chen Xiao, and only told the two of them to be careful on the road.

Slippery roads in the snow. Chen Xiao drove over, and Gu Shi'an followed Chang Yan to the garage after sending him a text message.

Neither of them spoke, and the car quickly pulled out of the garage. Chang Yan was still waiting outside, and Chen Xiao stopped the car as if he had guessed that Chang Yan was accompanying her.

Chang Yan quickly lowered the window, glanced at Chen Xiao in the car, nodded slightly as a greeting, and then said to Gu Shi'an

"I'll go back first." She can't help with this matter, and Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiaoshu are obviously the best.

Gu Shi'an responded with a good word. Chang Yan had already started the car, did not stop, and drove away directly.

Chen Xiao and Gu Shi'an didn't speak along the way, and he didn't take her back to the new house. The car stopped on the side of the road halfway through, glanced sideways at Gu Shi'an, and said

"Just say something." His tone was light and a little nonchalant, as if he hadn't taken anything to heart.

Gu Shi'an wanted to ask him how the Chen family became what it is now, but when he asked this, he was obviously revealing Chen Xiao's scars.

She was silent for a moment and said

"I'm going to Chen's today." Chen Xiao had already guessed what she was going to say, but listened to her.

The hand that went to get the cigarette paused, but did not speak. He didn't answer, so Gu Shi'an had to ask again

"The security guard at the door has changed, saying you're not over there anymore." As she spoke, she looked up at Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao glanced sideways at her and said

"Who says I'm not over there?" He didn't even admit it. But the people over there have changed blood, which proves that he is no longer the master of the house over there.

Otherwise, it would not have been such a big change. It's obviously boring to talk to him now, Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, and said

"And what are you doing here?" He's usually busy, and it's not weekends. Where can it be so long not in the Chan family.

Chen Xiao glanced at her lightly and said

"What am I doing here, I don't think I need to report it to you, do I?" His tone was already a little impatient. Gu Shi'an looked at him straightly, simply picked out his words, and said

"How long do you want to hide from me?" This means that she already knows everything. Chen Xiao's body stiffened, and then he said impatiently

"You don't have to worry about my business." He was not willing to continue on the topic, and immediately continued

"Nothing else to get off." It's freezing and snowy outside. It's not easy to take a taxi in such weather.

He was ruthless. Gu Shi'an sat still and didn't move. She was anxious when she didn't find him, and she wanted to find him immediately and appear in front of him.

But at this moment, she realized that no matter what she said, what words of comfort she found, were useless.

Because, she can't help him with anything. She didn't even know what she could do for him. Gu Shi'an's limbs slowly became cold in this weakness, she didn't stay in the car any longer, and after about two or three minutes, she reached out and opened the car door and got out of the car.

The cold wind outside poured into her collar almost immediately, and she couldn't help but shiver.

Chen Xiao's car did not stop, and drove away immediately after she closed the door. The snowflakes were falling one after another, and Gu Shi'an's figure was lonely under the dim yellow street lamp.

Her face was calm, and she looked up at the gloomy sky. Let the cold snowflakes fall on your face.

The cars here are really not easy to fight, and there hasn't been a car coming for a long time. Gu Shi'an was not in a hurry to go back, walked a distance, and sat down at the bus stop.

She couldn't wait for a taxi in the end, waiting for the bus in the early morning. There was no more than one passenger in the car.

The car was air-conditioned, and she was warm, and she sneezed as soon as she got into the car. The sneeze was very loud.

The tired and numb passengers on the bus didn't even lift their heads. Gu Shi'an quickly found a place to sit down, Chang Yan was worried about the situation here, and not long after she sat down, she sent her a text message asking if it was going well.

Gu Shi'an didn't know how to answer, and in the end he only replied to her with three words, which was good. In fact, not at all.

The bus at night is still slow, and there are young girls and boyfriends in the back seat talking on the phone, and their voices are low and full of affection.

Gu Shi'an closed his eyes and leaned his head against the car window. The bus stops and stops all the way, some people get on the bus, and some people who are tired or full of alcohol get on the bus.

Gu Shi'an leaned motionlessly, until he heard the radio and reported the name of the station, then he got up and got off the bus.

The neighborhood is exceptionally quiet on snowy nights, and the roads are covered with a thin layer of snow. The shoes creaked when they stepped on them.

Gu Shi'an went upstairs with one footprint deep and one foot shallower, the snow on his shoes melted, and the soles of his feet were cold.

Once inside, she stood against the door for a moment before turning on the light. Then I cheered up and went to wash my face with hot water.

She didn't sleep, but went out onto the balcony and looked out at the white world. After standing for so long, she took a breath and went back to her bedroom.

I forced myself to close my eyes. Gu Shi'an didn't sleep all night with her eyes open, and she got up early the next morning.

There was a bruise under her eyes, she washed her face, stood for a moment, and put on delicate makeup to cover her pale face and the bruised under-eyes.

Just about to go out, when I opened the door, I saw Chang Yan standing outside the door in a cold air. Chang Yan was about to knock on the door, and when he saw that she was going out, he was slightly stunned, and then asked

"Where are you going?" Gu Shi'an didn't answer, squeezed out a smile, and asked

"Why are you here?" She stepped aside as she spoke, and took out her slippers to let Chang Yin in. Chang Yan quickly entered the house and said

"I'll come and have a look." She still couldn't rest assured, so she came over early by returning the car. Although Gu Shi'an made a casual appearance, she knew that there was no negotiation last night.

If it had been negotiated, she wouldn't be here alone. Gu Shi'an went to pour a cup of hot water for Chang Yan, and Chang Yan took it.

Still asked

"How were we talking last night?" Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and said

"It's good." She didn't look at Chang Yan and sat down on the sofa opposite her. Chang Yan didn't expose her, was silent for a while, and asked

"Is there anything I can help with?" Gu Shi'an was dazed for a moment, then smiled reluctantly and said

"Okay." Neither of them spoke for a moment. Gu Shi'an couldn't find anything to say, so he asked after a while

"Why did you come here so early?" Chang Yan sighed and said

"I went out in the morning, and I came over to the store with nothing to do." She looked at Gu Shi'an and asked

"Where are you going?" Gu Shi'an smiled reluctantly and said

"It's boring to stay and plan to go out and look for a new job." Chang Yan pursed his lips slightly, and said after a few tens of seconds

"Are you going to Chen Xun's side?" She wants to help Chen Xiao, and now the only place she can think of to start is Chen Xun's side.

Gu Shi'an showed a miserable smile on his face, lowered his head, and said

"Ah, I can't do nothing." The affairs of the Gu family are almost settled by Chen Xiao.

At this time, how could she do nothing. Since Chen Xun condescendingly threw an olive branch to her, it shows that he is extremely conceited.

At this moment, Chen Xiao is no longer in his eyes. Perhaps, a breakthrough can be found from her. Chang Yan fell silent now.

Judging from last night, I knew that Chen Xun had a good face, otherwise he would not have asked Gu Shi'an for a job in front of so many people.

Gu Shi'an went to his side and didn't have to worry about safety. Since Chen Xun wants to be generous in front of people, he won't do anything to her.

But, these are all in the absence of any threat from her. The specific situation on Chen's side was unclear, and she looked for it so rashly.

It may not be the right choice, Chang Yan groaned slightly and said

"Don't go over yet. We only met last night, and if you look for him now, he will be suspicious. I'll inquire again. "Gu Shi'an is a fan of the authorities, and many things are unexpected.

She was silent for a moment, then said yes. Since they have all come over, Chang Yin is not in a hurry to go back. Knowing that Gu Shi'an hadn't eaten breakfast yet, he got up and went to the kitchen to get busy.

There are not many ingredients at home, so she boiled porridge and made side dishes. The breakfast was quiet and I often left after eating.

Tell Gu Shi'an before leaving, and wait for her to figure out the situation first. Don't worry just yet. Gu Shi'an responded, watched Chang Yan leave, and stood at the door for a while, then closed the door.

She can't stay at home, and no matter how much Chang Yan checks over there, she won't be as clear as the person concerned.

Gu Shi'an stayed in the living room for a while, and took out his mobile phone again to call Assistant Sun's number. Naturally, the call didn't go through.

I don't know if Assistant Sun changed his mobile phone number or what. The phone couldn't get through, so I had to go to the place where Assistant Sun lived.

Although Assistant Sun has been by Chen Xiao's side for many years, Gu Shi'an knows very little about his private affairs.

I don't even know where he lives. She didn't know, but Assistant Sun used to go in and out of the old mansion often. Ye Qing probably knew about it.

Gu Shi'an's mind came up with this year, and he immediately took out his mobile phone to call Ye Qing.

Although Ye Qing slept late at night, he got up early in the morning. At this time, she had already eaten breakfast, and she was a little surprised when she received a call from Gu Shi'an, and asked her what was wrong.

Of course, Gu Shi'an wouldn't tell her honestly, so he said that Chen Xiao had an urgent meeting in the morning, and he was supposed to ask Assistant Sun to send it.

But Assistant Sun was sick, so she asked her to go over and pick it up. She hurriedly went out, but forgot to ask Assistant Sun where she lived.

Chen Xiao was already in a meeting and couldn't answer the phone, and Assistant Sun's mobile phone was turned off. Asked Ye Qing if he knew where he lived.

What she meant by this was that the two had been together since they left last night. Ye Qing smiled from ear to ear on the other end of the phone.

Where would you suspect something, after thinking about it for a while, I told Gu Shi'an where Assistant Sun lived. In the past, when the old lady was there, the younger juniors in the company came to the house.

They will stay for a cup of tea or a meal. When chatting, she will ask about the other party's private life out of concern, and she follows next to her, and she hears something.

But after a long time, people may not still live anywhere, so Ye Qing asked Gu Shi'an to go over and have a look first. Let her not worry, if it really doesn't work, call back to the company and ask the secretary to ask Chen Xiao.

probably thought that she was afraid of being scolded by Chen Xiao, and encouraged her to call back and ask if she really couldn't do it. It's good to be scolded for being coquettish.

Gu Shi'an agreed, thanked Ye Qing, hung up the phone, and used his mobile phone to navigate the place. Then went downstairs.

Chang Yin had already driven the car back, and it was convenient to go out. She imagined it too simply, and when she arrived at the place, she realized that the community where Assistant Sun lived was large.

There were several districts, Ye Qing didn't make it clear, she didn't even know that Assistant Sun would come out of that exit.

It is undoubtedly difficult to find people in this way. She parked the car and went to the security booth to ask. When a young strange girl asks this, it always makes people wonder what is going on.

The security guard didn't answer, only deduced that there were too many people and didn't remember. With this experience, when she asked again, she said that she was a relative of Assistant Sun's family.

He hasn't been home for a long time. The family was worried and asked her to come over and have a look.

But I don't know where he lives. Pity the parents of the world, and after changing the word, the security guard dispelled his vigilance.

However, he said that he couldn't help, there were many people in the community, and they couldn't remember so much. It is obviously difficult to find it this way.

Although Gu Shi'an didn't remember Assistant Sun's license plate number, he recognized her car. I asked the residents in the community from which intersection they entered and exited.

The security guard was surprised by her persistence, but she told her anyway. And pointed out to her a better location to pay attention to the traffic of vehicles.

Gu Shi'an thanked him and drove away. Although most of the people entering and exiting the intersection are owners in the community, because the community is large, there is a lot of people and cars.

Gu Shi'an guarded the intersection to find one, but he didn't gain anything. At one o'clock in the afternoon, she still wanted to keep it.

But the stomach growled uncontrollably. There is not much to eat in the neighborhood but not much to eat. She didn't want to waste time, so she went straight to the supermarket in the community, intending to buy some biscuits and mineral water to cushion her stomach.

There are many types of cookies in the supermarket and she is not picky. I casually took mineral water and soda biscuits and went to the cashier to pay the bill.

After checking out the bill, I hurried out, and as soon as I arrived at the door, I almost bumped into the person who also came in in a hurry.

The other party's reaction was fast, and he stepped aside, and was about to say sorry, but when he raised his head, he was stunned for a moment and asked

"Why are you here?" The person who came in was not Assistant Sun. Gu Shi'an didn't expect to run into him so coincidentally, so he didn't hide it and said

"I'm here for you." Assistant Sun was not surprised to hear her say that, was silent for a while, and said

"You can sit in the café over there." He didn't go shopping anymore, so he took Gu Shi'an and went outside.

The biscuits and mineral water in Gu Shi'an's hands were conspicuous. He asked again when he got outside

"What are you eating?" Gu Shi'an is not picky, so he said that he can eat anything. Assistant Sun raised his wrist to look at the time, but still took her to the café.

The two of them each ordered a light meal. The coffee ordered came up quickly, and Assistant Sun rubbed the slightly hot cup wall and asked

"Do you know when you come here, Mr. Chen?" Cat flutter Chinese
