Chapter 232: The Walking Dead
Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment. She closed the door and immediately went to the nurses' station.
She's been staying here, and the people at the nurses' station have an impression of her. Hearing her ask, I couldn't help but be surprised and said, "Don't you know, they have already been transferred to the hospital." ”
Gu Shi'an restrained himself and calmed himself down, and asked, "When did you leave?" ”
The nurse looked through the records and said, "It was about nine o'clock last night." After all, Qi Shiyun has always been taken care of by Gu Shi'an, and she said suspiciously: "Didn't they tell you?" ”
Gu Shi'an didn't answer her words, and reluctantly squeezed out a smile and said thank you.
She quickly got out of the hospital and didn't call Chen Xiao. He moved away so quietly, apparently to avoid her.
Gu Shi'an didn't leave immediately, just sat on the bench in the hospital. After a long time, I picked up the chicken soup and went back.
She doesn't have a job now, she has nothing to do. Standing on the road, I don't even know where I'm going. I stood on the side of the road for a long time before getting on the bus home.
She had been outside for a long time, and the chicken soup was already cold when she returned. She didn't look at it either, and collapsed on the bed.
Gu Shi'an received a call from the old lady in the afternoon, and the old lady asked her to go to the villa.
Gu Shi'an's car was still parked at the Chen family's old house, she got up and washed her face, looked at her pale face in the mirror, and just wanted to call Assistant Sun, and asked him to drive her car over when he had time, her mobile phone rang. The call was made by Assistant Sun.
She had just fed her, and Assistant Sun was over there and asked politely, "Miss Gu, are you there now?" I've had the car you parked over there, and it's now downstairs in your building. ”
Gu Shi'an was calm, said thank you, and then said that I will go downstairs immediately.
Assistant Sun quickly hung up the phone, Gu Shi'an got downstairs, and the car was parked downstairs. The driver who came over was a face that Gu Shi'an had never seen before. He didn't say much, respectfully gave the car key to Gu Shi'an and left.
Gu Shi'an stood with the key for a while, went back upstairs and changed his clothes again, and then went to the old lady's side.
The old lady's side, as usual, was still deserted. Because Gu Shi'an used to eat much more food than usual.
The old lady saw that she was loving, and kept asking her to eat more at the dinner table. And she didn't eat much herself.
Because Gu Shi'an came over, the old lady had to sleep later than usual. When Gu Shi'an sent her back to the room to leave, the old lady said, "An An, don't be in a hurry, grandma has something to say to you." ”
Gu Shi'an obediently responded and sat down on the bedstring.
The old lady reached out and touched her head lovingly, and said, "Your Uncle Sun called me today, and he meant to let you go back to work." The old lady paused at this point, and then said, "He is not young, and he is going to retire, so he wants you to go back." ”
The old lady didn't wait for her to speak, and continued: "Your uncle has been here during the day, and he and your third uncle have the same meaning, I hope you can go back." ”
His father died because of this, and the Gu family was not a place with good memories for Gu Shi'an. She had no plans to return to work. After Gu Chengde's scandal, she knew Gu's current situation. She lowered her head and said, "I can't help when I go back." ”
Indeed, she did not have her father's shrewd mind. It's not enough to be good at dancing with long sleeves, and even if you go back, it really won't help much.
The old lady sighed, patted her hand gently, and said, "It's okay, if you don't want to go back, you won't go back." ”
The old lady's attitude was the same as at the beginning, and when Gu Shi'an graduated, she wanted her to review her family. But knowing that she didn't want to, she didn't even mention it, and let her go.
The old lady didn't intend to continue on this topic, so she pondered for a while and asked, "How is Chen Xiao's side?" ”
Chen's affairs are not small, and now everyone in the circle knows that Chen's has changed hands.
Gu Shi'an didn't hide it from the old lady at this time, and said, "He didn't tell me." ”
This is like Chen Xiao's style, the old lady wanted to say something, but in the end she didn't say anything, and asked Gu Shi'an to rest early.
Gu Shi'an agreed, turned off the lights for the old lady, and then went upstairs.
Upstairs there was silence without a sound, and she lay on her bed, her mind conjuring up about the empty hospital room today, and she closed her eyes. The bottom of my heart is empty, as if as long as I move slightly, the pain will invade the whole world.
Gu Shi'an hardly slept this night, and his eyes were closed and painful, and he didn't feel sleepy at all. Then doing nothing is obviously the easiest to be cranky. She got up early the next day to say hello to her aunt and quietly left, intending to look for a job again. Always find something to do.
The aunt didn't keep her, but just told her to slip on the road and drive slowly.
Gu Shi'an had just returned to the city when his mobile phone rang. She took out her mobile phone and looked at it, the call was from Gu Chengping. She pulled over to the side of the road and looked at her phone for a while before picking it up. Hey, call uncle.
Gu Chengping's voice was muffled, and he asked, "Where are you now?" Brother-in-law...... I want to meet you. ”
As if he was afraid that Gu Shi'an would not agree, there was some hesitation in his voice.
Last night, the old lady mentioned that she was going to work for Gu's, and Gu Chengping said that she wanted to see her, most of which was also the case. Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, but in the end he still said, "Where are you, I'll go over." ”
Gu Chengping was still at home at this time, he had to go to work, Gu Shi'an didn't have to go to work, so he made an appointment to meet at a café not far from Gu's.
There was almost no one in the café in the morning, only a few clerks sitting on their own business. When Gu Shi'an arrived, Gu Chengping had already arrived and had already ordered coffee. She called out to her uncle, and then sat down.
Gu Chengping nodded, didn't speak, and after a while, asked, "Did grandma tell you last night?" ”
There is no need for him to point it out, Gu Shi'an also knows what he is talking about.
Now that they're all here, she's going to make it clear. Then she said, "I said it." I have no plans to go back to work. ”
Gu Chengping looked up at her at this time, with an obscure face of vicissitudes, and asked, "Shi'an, have you been blaming your uncle?" ”
"Nope. You're thinking too much. She paused and said, "I'm not going back because of anything." You know, I can't help even if I go back. ”
Her tone was serious.
Knowing that she thought so, Gu Chengping breathed a sigh of relief, and hurriedly said, "I don't want you to help me." The company has come up with a new product. Uncle and Uncle You have been looking for new investors lately. The company will definitely get better slowly. He paused slightly, and then said: "It's not easy for you to work hard outside as a girl, and you have to come to the company less than outside." ”
The Gu family has raised too many idlers, and there is not one more of her.
Gu Shi'an knew what this meant, she lowered her head and said, "I have received your heart, I ...... it."
Before she could finish speaking, she was interrupted by Gu Chengde, and he said anxiously: "Don't be in a hurry to answer me first, and then think about it?" ”
Gu Shi'an knew that he was kind-hearted, but he still couldn't bear to look at him like this. He nodded and said yes.
Gu Chengping breathed a sigh of relief. He has always been silent, and he can't find anything to say to Gu Shi'an now. After sitting for a while, he left.
Gu Shi'an didn't go home, but drove directly to the talent market.
She's been here many times, but she's familiar with it. It's almost the Chinese New Year now, and it's hard to find a job. Most of the positions in the companies that came to recruit people were not very good, and she didn't gain anything after shaking around.
She didn't have time to think about anything else, and she didn't go back in the afternoon, but went straight to the store.
Although the weather was cold, business was good for the past two days. Chang Yan has launched a winter health soup, which not only nourishes the body, but also tastes good.
The store was busy and had almost no time to rest, and Gu Shi'an was also busy, running non-stop in the back kitchen of the cashier. It didn't stop until late at night.
Chang Yan knew that she had to take care of Qi Shiyun, and when she rested, she had time to ask, "Why are you free?" ”
Gu Shi'an's face was calm, he looked up at the door, and said, "When I went back that day, they were no longer there, and the nurse said that they had been transferred." ”
She bowed her head as she spoke.
Chang Yan was slightly stunned at this time. She was transferred in her absence, apparently to avoid her.
Chang Yan didn't speak for a while, and the two sat silently.
The wind outside was blowing loudly, Gu Shi'an looked at the time and said, "Let's go, it's not early, let's go back." I'll have to come early tomorrow morning. ”
Appointments for tomorrow are also full. Some guests have specified the ingredients, and they have to go to buy them in person early in the morning. The guests have high requirements for ingredients, and she is not at ease to let others go.
Chang Yan nodded, and the two got up and walked outside, pulling down the door and locking it.
It's much colder outside than inside, like two worlds. When they went out, both of them couldn't help but shudder. It is obviously not easy to go home in the middle of the night in the ice and snow, Gu Shi'an asked, "Didn't you say that you wanted to buy a car?" When are you going to buy it? ”
This matter has been mentioned for a long time, but there has been no movement.
Chang Yan sighed at this time and said, "Let's celebrate the New Year." I've heard that the annual meeting will do activities. ”
Although she has a little money on hand now, she is still frugal. Save a little if you can.
Gu Shi'an nodded.
Although she acted as if nothing happened, Chang Yin knew that she was in a bad mood. After a slight pause, he asked, "Do you want to eat something and go back?" ”
It's cold, and it's a good idea to drink some alcohol when you're eating outside. Gu Shi'an also knew Chang Yan's thoughts, smiled, and said, "No need, I just eat, I'm not hungry." Rest early. ”
Even if you are drunk, you can only escape for a while, not for a while. When I wake up, I still have to face what I have to face.
Chang Yan nodded and did not speak again.
Gu Shi'an didn't go back to his home, but still went back to her small courtyard with Chang Yin. It was too late to come back, and Chang Yan didn't regenerate fire this time. The two of them went to the shower and lay down on the same bed.
The courtyard is cold and gloomy, even in summer. Not to mention winter.
Gu Shi'an couldn't help but shiver when he entered the quilt, and said, "It's too cold without heating, go live with me." Come back when the weather warms up. ”
Chang Yan smiled and said, "I'm used to it." Frozen is healthier. ”
It's good now, at least it's not so short of money. In the past, when she was short of money, she even used hot water to cook economically. I'm really used to it.
Gu Shi'an ignored her, thought for a moment, and said, "Why don't you install heating here?" The outer fence needs to be repaired, so let's get it together. ”
No, this yard is too dilapidated for a long time. Not only the outside, but also the inside. The walls were already peeling off because of the dampness.
She knew that Chang Yan was hesitant, and without waiting for her to speak, she immediately said, "It just so happens that I am free during this time, how about I get it for you?" Guaranteed to make the most practical and best results with the least amount of money. ”
Her words were a bit of a suspicion of self-selling and boasting, and Chang Yan laughed at this time. He nodded and said, "Okay." It's hard to find workers when it's snowing during this time, so let's start working when the weather is warmer. ”
No, it's cold outside. The workers are almost all out of work.
Gu Shi'an said hello, and the two began to think about how to get it. This place is very old, and it is said that it has been renovated, but in fact it has to be renovated and renovated. You have to get the kitchen, you have to get the bathroom, you have to get the bedroom, you have to get the living room. It's not a refurbishment.
And the courtyard outside, because it is barren without anyone to take care of it. Weeds even grow in the corners of the walls, which is a waste of land.
With something to do, Gu Shi'an even had to relax his tone. Chang Yan also cooperated with her, and said her own thoughts from time to time.
The two talked until almost the early hours of the morning, Chang Yan was tired all day, and he made an even breathing sound as he spoke. Gu Shi'an's mind was still clear, and he kept his eyes open motionless and looked at the window that was slightly letting in the light. It's snowing again outside.
Although they slept late, they both woke up early the next day. Chang Yan asked Gu Shi'an to sleep more, but she refused, she wanted to go to the market with her.
When I opened the door, it was already white. More than two feet of snow had accumulated in the yard. Although the sky is not clear, the surroundings are bright.
Chang Yan is also hard in the store, wandering around the market for a long time, and when the sky is completely bright, he carries the things he bought and puts them in the car.
Gu Shi'an's hands were red from the cold, but Chang Yan didn't seem to feel it.
The hygiene is cleaned at night, and the rest of the shop is not busy in the morning. Only Chang Yin is busy, and she has to deal with the freshness of the ingredients she buys first.
Gu Shi'an couldn't find anything to do, so he followed her to help in the kitchen. The class was hard to find, so she simply helped in the store while pondering the transformation of the small courtyard over there.
The daytime is extremely fast, and a busy day is a day. The night is hard, waiting for the dawn with my eyes open.
Lying on the bed that night, Chang Yan, who had been silent and thought Gu Shi'an was asleep, suddenly looked sideways at her and said, "Shi'an, do you really believe that Chen Xiao has made arrangements?" ”
Gu Shi'an's body stiffened slightly, and he didn't speak.
The room was extremely quiet for a moment, Chang Yan was silent for a moment, and continued: "Even if it was arranged early, it is out of control now. The Chen clan is now completely out of their control. ”
She suddenly said this, apparently she had received some news.
Gu Shi'an closed his eyes and did not speak.
Chang Yan paused slightly, and then continued: "The Chen family is the brainchild of the Chen family, and it is also the brainchild of Chen Xiao. He knew too well what would become of the Chen family if Chen Xun and Xiao Si joined forces. How could he possibly let the Chen clan out of his grasp. ”
And the board of directors turned against each other, and the Chen family had a big change. is proving that his people, or those who are close to him, should have all been replaced. The Chen family is no longer under his control at all.
Even if he had already made arrangements, at this moment, it would probably be useless.
Chang Yan wanted to say something, but when he got here, he didn't say anything more. was silent, and after a while, he said softly: "I still have some people in my hands, and I also have some channels for news. Feel free to let me know if you need to. ”
She knows Gu Shi'an's character too well and knows that she can't let go. After a pause, he added, "You can't go it alone. Shi'an, this time is much more dangerous than you think. Chen Xun and Xiao Si want more than just Chen. ”
What I also want is Chen Xiao's life.
Xiao Si didn't want Chen Xiao's life for a day or two, but he just had no way to take him. And Chen Xun, who has been suppressed by Chen Xiao for so many years, is afraid that he even dreams of getting rid of him quickly.
Although she didn't say it clearly, Gu Shi'an understood what it meant.
Her fingers clenched tightly, and after a while, she whispered thank you in a dumb voice.
Chang Yan shook her head and asked her not to be polite. said, "Don't go to the store tomorrow." ”
Although Gu Shi'an was in the store, she knew that she had been worried. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been so sleepless all night.
Gu Shi'an didn't speak at this time.
Chang Yan got up early the next day and got up early. I washed my face with cold water and went out. Gu Shi'an heard her go out, and didn't get up to go out with her like he did two days ago.
She lay stiff on the bed until it was dark outside. Then I got up and washed.
It's cold without heating here, and she's not in a hurry to go out. I turned on the TV and stayed in the living room until ten o'clock, and then went out.
It's been a few days, and Qi Shiyun should have been discharged from the hospital. Chen Xiao didn't want to trouble Ye Qing's side, so he should have arranged Qi Shiyun where he lived.
Gu Shi'an got into the car and sat for a while before starting the car. She couldn't come to the door empty-handed, so she bought fruit and some supplements at the fruit store. Only then did I go to Chen Xiao's side.
Chen Xiao said hello, and she knew that the security guards might not let her in. But there was no place to park nearby, so she had to drive the car over.
She thought the security guards would stop her, but they didn't. The security guard was surprised to see her and asked, "Are you here to find Mr. Chen?" ”
Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and nodded.
The security guard then said, "Mr. Chen has moved out." Moved out the other day. I heard them say that something seems to have happened to his company......"
The security guard chattered, Gu Shi'an didn't listen to a word of the words behind him as if he had been knocked with a stick, and the whole person was depressed, and after a long while, he squeezed out a smile and said, "Do you know where he moved to?" ”
Where would the security guard know, shook his head, and said, "I don't know." I didn't go to work that day, and I listened to them when I came back. I heard that the house here ......."
Before he finished speaking, Gu Shi'an turned the car around.
The car drove onto the road, and she remembered that she didn't even know where to find Chen Xiao except here.
She wanted to call Qi Shiyun's phone, but in the end she didn't call, and finally called Assistant Sun's phone.
Assistant Sun's phone was picked up not long after, and he called Miss Gu, and Gu Shi'an asked astringently, "Where did you Mr. Chen move to?" ”
Assistant Sun didn't answer her words, was silent for a while, and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Chen is fine." Madame is also recovering well and has been discharged from the hospital. ”
Gu Shi'an took a deep breath and asked, "I'm here in the new house." The security guard said he had moved out. Where is he now? ”
She has a tendency for Assistant Sun not to give up if he doesn't answer.
Assistant Sun on the other end of the phone was silent for a moment and said, "Madame is over there at the old house, and Mr. Chen has been there recently." ”
This means that Chen Xiao has moved back to the old house.
Gu Shi'an didn't wait for him to speak again, hung up the phone, and drove directly to the old house.
Her car drove at a fast pace all the way, and it was only an hour when she arrived at the old house. It was Ye Qing who opened the door when she went back, she was not surprised to see her, and said softly: "Why did you come back at this time, and the lady just fell asleep." ”
Gu Shi'an didn't know what Chen Xiao said to her, so he squeezed out a smile and asked, "Mother-in-law, is she okay?" ”
Ye Qing looked upstairs and said softly, "It's okay." The doctor said that he would be fine after a period of recuperation. It's just that she has been sleeping lightly recently, and the doctor prescribed some soothing Chinese medicine to recuperate. ”
Swallowing so many sleeping pills must be harmful to the body.
Gu Shi'an nodded. Seeing that Ye Qing didn't mention that Chen Xiao had moved back, he asked, "Has Chen Xiao been here recently?" ”
Ye Qing shook his head and said, "No." Although I came back every day, I didn't stay long before I left in a hurry. Didn't spend the night here either. ”
The meaning of this is that Chen Xiao did not move back here.
Gu Shi'an's heart sank, and he just squeezed out a smile.
