Chapter 237: Provocation

He's quite self-aware.

Chen Xiao leaned back and said lightly, "Aren't you here too?" ”

Chen Xun was not embarrassed at all, picked up the teacup in front of him and took a sip of tea, and said with a slight smile: "I came this time, but I brought good news to you, brother." ”

He was full of ambition, not as polite as he used to be.

The good news he said, where will be the good news. Chen Xiao's handsome face was cold, and he didn't speak, just looked at him.

Chen Xun looked at Gu Shi'an at this time, and said with a smile: "What I told my sister-in-law last time, I don't know if she told you." ”

Gu Shi'an naturally didn't tell Chen Xiao.

Chen Xun probably guessed it, paused slightly, looked around again, and sighed: "Although the old mansion is a little off, it is quite clean." His words changed sharply, and then he said: "Brother, there should be a big gap in your liquidated damages, right?" I have a friend who happens to be interested in this kind of old house......"

He paused at this point, observing Chen Xiao's reaction.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, just looked at him coldly. After a minute or two, he said with a smile: "I should thank you from time to time for coming over to tell me this?" ”

His eyes were cold, sharp as sharp knives.

Chen Xun didn't dare to look at him, laughed, and said hypocritically: "Brother, I'm also doing this for the good of my brother." After all, you can't watch your brother go to prison. ”

He was a little careless in the end, but he was actually reminding Chen Xiao. What happens if that money doesn't make up for it?

The corners of Chen Xiao's lips hooked up with some mockery, and said, "Then I really want to thank you." He paused slightly, and then said, "But I really can't afford to call me brother by Mr. Chen." If there is nothing else, there will be no Mr. Chen. ”

That's what it is.

Chen Xun was willing to leave like that, his finger clicked on his eyebrows, and said, "My friend sincerely wants to buy it, and the price will not be low." I advise you...... Let's think about it. After all......"

He didn't say any more, and smiled meaningfully.

This is a threat.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile.

Although he was calm on the surface, Chen Xiao's smile made him a little worried. He stood up, politely said goodbye, and then went out.

The aunt quickly sent him out, and the living room was quiet.

Qi Shiyun should have been paying attention to the living room, walked downstairs, frowned and asked, "What is he doing here?" ”

Chen Xiao picked up the teacup and said, "I'm so idle." ”

He has always reported good news and not bad news, so naturally he will not tell her.

But Qi Shiyun wouldn't believe this, and fell silent. After a while, he said, "Come to the study." ”

As she spoke, she walked in the direction of the study.

Gu Shi'an's eyes were a little worried, Chen Xiao said that it was okay, and then followed in the direction of the study.

Chen Xiao and Qi Shiyun entered the study, and Ye Qing also walked out. She was in the kitchen, and she heard something about it. His face was not good, and he asked in a low voice, "Is there something wrong in the company?" ”

Chen Xiao concealed it from her tightly, and she didn't go out much, so she didn't know the news from Chen's side.

Gu Shi'an naturally wouldn't tell her, squeezed out a smile, and said, "It's nothing, don't worry, Chen Xiao will take care of it." ”

Ye Qing was still worried, and said, "I don't know what moths will come out again." ”

Blame Chen Zhengkang, if it weren't for him, there would be no more mother and son. There won't be so many bad things.

Gu Shi'an said that it was okay, changed the topic, and asked Ye Qing to teach her to make some desserts.

Ye Qing was very happy to teach her this, took her to the kitchen, and talked carefully.

Where Gu Shi'an has thoughts, he is absent-minded, and looks at the direction of the study from time to time. Chen Xiao and Qi Shiyun didn't know what they were talking about, and it took almost half an hour before they came out.

Chen Xiao's face was expressionless, and Qi Shiyun couldn't see anything either.

Qi Shiyun quickly went upstairs, and Chen Xiao went to the kitchen.

Ye Qing was happy to see him coming, and found an excuse to support Gu Shi'an to go out.

When the two arrived in the living room, Chen Xiao said, "I'll go out for a while." ”

Chen Xun came over just now, and Gu Shi'an had a lot to ask. He's going out, and obviously he can't ask. After a moment's hesitation, she still asked, "Where to go?" ”

Ever since she saw the blood stains on Chen Xiao's shirt that night, she knew that Chen Xiao's current situation was far from being as light as it seemed.

Chen Xiao sighed and said, "There's something going on over there with Assistant Sun. He looked at the time and said, "Even if you come back at night, you will come back late, go to bed early, and don't wait for me." ”

What this means is that it is not necessarily coming back.

If Gu Shi'an wanted to ask, he could only take the time to ask again, nodded, answered a good sentence, and then added: "I'll call you at night." ”

She was blinded, and the worry on her face did not show it. But Chen Xiao knew she was worried.

He reached out and patted her on the head, and said yes briskly. He stretched out his hand and hugged her again, and then said in a low voice, "Let's go." ”

His arms are warm.

Gu Shi'an's face was stuffed in his chest, and he responded sullenly.

Chen Xiao let go of her and walked out of the door. After walking a few steps, he poured back, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What do you want to eat, I'll bring it back to you if I have time." ”

There was more warmth between the two now, and Gu Shi'an deliberately made a relaxed look and said, "You can eat anything." ”

Chen Xiao nodded, didn't stay any longer, and walked out directly.

His car quickly drove out of the yard, and Gu Shi'an stood for a long time. It wasn't until my body was frozen that I entered the house.

And Chen Xiao drove out of the yard, but did not leave immediately. He stopped against the side of the road, pulled out a cigarette and smoked it.

After smoking a cigarette, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. Then the car was restarted.

Chen Xiao really didn't come back for dinner in the evening, but Gu Shi'an's mobile phone rang after he went upstairs.

It was an unfamiliar number called, and she looked at it and picked it up.

As soon as he fed it, a gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sister-in-law, it's me, Chen Xun." ”

Gu Shi'an was disgusted, and his brows furrowed. But she knew that Chen Xun would not call for no reason. Then she asked, "What's the matter?" ”

She is detached and cold. I dislike Chen Xun from the bottom of my heart. is obviously a villain, but he has to pretend to be a humble gentleman.

Chen Xun smiled slightly on the other end of the phone, deliberately groaned, and said, "I have something here, I think sister-in-law you will be very interested." ”

When he called at this time, Gu Shi'an originally thought that he was going to persuade Chen Xiao to sell the old mansion to his so-called friend.

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak, he sighed again: "Sister-in-law, you are really good to my brother." At this time, we will not give up. ”

He was clearly foreshadowing when he said this. Gu Shi'an didn't speak, waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, as soon as his words changed, he immediately said: "However, I don't know if you are worthy or not, sister-in-law." He sighed.

Gu Shi'an was too lazy to listen to him anymore, and said, "If you have something to say, just say it." ”

Chen Xun laughed and said, "Sister-in-law is really a cheerful person. I called to tell my sister-in-law that your sincerity and sincerity may have been paid by mistake. If you are good to others, they may not treat you with the same heart. ”

He paused deliberately at this point and said, "My brother, it's a candlelight dinner now." I have to say that the fire is about to burn his eyebrows, and he is quite calm. Don't forget to make his first love happy. ”

He sighed.

There is no need for him to point it out, Gu Shi'an also knows who his first love is.

She said lightly: "Is there anything else?" ”

His performance seemed to be expected by Chen Xun, and he asked, "Sister-in-law, don't you think you are quite unworthy?" So many years of clarity have been spent on him, and in the end, all he thinks about is the red rose on the tip of his heart. I guess, sister-in-law, you should give him all your savings, right? ”

He didn't wait for Gu Shi'an to answer, and said to himself: "But as far as I know, he seems to have bought him a very expensive car recently." Including the property in that name, it should be my brother's handwriting. Even at this time, it was still kept secret and did not let her know the true situation. I have to say, my brother, I can't say that I have a deep affection for her. It's just that I'm sorry for you, sister-in-law. ”

He was at the end of the day, sighed when he said this, and said, "I don't want you to be kept in the dark, sister-in-law, I sent something in your mailbox, sister-in-law." If you're interested, sister-in-law, take a look, and if you're not interested, delete it directly, just because I haven't made this call. ”

After he finished speaking, he stopped talking nonsense and hung up the phone directly.

There was a beeping busy sound on the phone, and Gu Shi'an held the phone and didn't move. Chen Xun is not what it used to be now, and everything has been prepared for her.

He had bothered to prepare, if she didn't watch it, wouldn't it be a waste of his hard work.

Gu Shi'an put his phone aside and turned on the computer.

The bedroom was silent at this moment, and there was no sound at all. The lights Gu Shi'an had turned off, only the dim and faint light of the notebook.

She hadn't looked at the mailbox in a long time, and there were several emails in the mailbox. The latest one was sent ten minutes ago and has no title.

You don't have to think about it to know that it was sent by Chen Xun, so Gu Shi'an clicked it directly.

Chen Xun said that what she was interested in was not only pictures, but also videos. Each one is a photo of Chen Xiao and Li Ran together. Although there is no intimate work between the two, it is not difficult to see the intimacy between the two. Li Ran's smile was as shy as a little girl.

The last video is obviously the candlelight dinner that Chen Xun said. The angle of the shot is good. The video is clear, so clear that you can even see the flush on Li Ran's face. Time, it's tonight.

Gu Shi'an only looked at the beginning and turned off the computer directly, sitting in the dark without moving.

She is not stupid, she naturally knows that this is Chen Xun's discord plan. Chen Xun must have his purpose in showing her this. Otherwise, how could it be so troublesome.

It's just that the company is now in his hands. What else does he want to do? Gu Shi'an couldn't figure it out, and closed his eyes in the dark.

After about ten minutes, her phone rang again. The call was also from Chen Xun, and he was pinching a little bit. I guess she's already finished reading the email.

Gu Shi'an looked at the number and picked it up. This time, without waiting for Chen Xun to speak, she opened her mouth and asked, "What do you mean by showing me this?" ”

Chen Xiao chuckled on the other end of the phone and said, "Sister-in-law, didn't you treat me as a good person?" I'm showing you this, naturally because I don't want you to be kept in the dark anymore. After a slight pause, he continued: "I don't know if you have any thoughts after reading this, sister-in-law?" Don't you think it's not worth it? ”

Gu Shi'an on the phone didn't speak, and after a while, he said, "What if it's not worth it?" ”

Although her tone was restrained and calm, it was difficult to hide the tiredness and unwillingness inside.

Chen Xun laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, if you don't think it's worth it, I'll help you." Sister-in-law, you should know, I have this ability now. ”

His tone was calm, as if he were talking about something worth celebrating.

Gu Shi'an's heart skipped a beat and asked, "How are you going to help me?" ”

Chen Xun on the other end of the phone laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, your emotions are too excited now, in order to avoid regrets, it is not suitable to talk about such a thing." It's better to wait until you calm down and think about it before talking to me. I'll wait for your call. ”

His tone can be described as mild. After a pause, he laughed on the other end of the phone and said, "It's not early, sister-in-law should go to bed early." ”

After he said this, he didn't say anything more, and hung up the phone directly.

Gu Shi'an sat in the dark and did not move, and it took a long time before he went to bed. I closed my eyes.

Chen Xun threw out the chips, naturally he would not 'help' her in vain. Her fingers curled up together unconsciously and clenched tightly, she knew too well that this was the best chance to get close to him.

Chen Xun is conceited. What she said on the phone just now, he didn't even have the slightest suspicion. It was as if he had mastered her mind.

Gu Shi'an's fingers clenched tighter, restraining himself to calm down.

When Chen Xiao came back, it was already past twelve o'clock, the yard was quiet, and the sound of the car was a little harsh in the middle of the night.

He didn't linger much down, and soon went upstairs. Gu Shi'an closed his eyes.

The door was quickly opened, and Chen Xiao walked directly to the bed. As if knowing that Gu Shi'an was not asleep, he patted her head gently at the head of the bed and said, "Get up, I'll bring you supper." ”

There was a smile in his tone.

Gu Shi'an had to open his eyes, sit up, and touch his nose.

Chen Xiao brought back a barbecue, took something and put it on the small table, and said: "The boss of the familiar shop baked it, it is clean and hygienic, and you can eat it with confidence." ”

Gu Shi'an snorted, got out of bed, and said, "How do you know that I didn't sleep?" ”

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course I know." ”

He didn't explain how he knew, and went into the bathroom. Soon the sound of rushing water could be heard in the bathroom.

The amount of barbecue that Chen Xiao brought back was for two people, and in addition to meat, there were also some vegetables. Gu Shi'an didn't eat much, so he came out. He wiped his hair and said, "Although you can't eat more, it's okay to eat a little once in a while." For a change of taste. You've been eating less lately. If you want to eat something, tell your aunt and let her do it. I consulted the doctor, and the doctor said that if you can't eat, you should eat less and more meals, and drink more nutritious tonic soup. ”

He doesn't have to worry about the food in the old mansion, when they come back, almost every meal of Ye Qing is very hearty. It's just that Gu Shi'an didn't say it, and he didn't say it either. I don't know if I want to wait a little longer, or if I have some other plans.

But he didn't say it, Gu Shi'an was obviously relieved.

Gu Shi'an nodded at this time.

Chen Xiao quickly dried his hair and sat down on the sofa beside her. Almost subconsciously, he reached out and touched Gu Shi'an's stomach through his pajamas.

Gu Shi'an's body stiffened. He felt it, and immediately withdrew his hand, touched his face with his hand, and said, "My hand is a little cold." ”

He said this in a somewhat sloppy manner, like a child who has made a mistake. He asked again, "Will it move?" ”

He'd asked this question, and I don't know how he forgot it. Gu Shi'an said at this time: "It will be a few months before you can move." ”

Chen Xiao sighed, and stared at Gu Shi'an's stomach for a while. Then he got up and poured her a glass of water.

He looked casual, Gu Shi'an finished the barbecue in his hand, and then asked, "Come back early, have things been dealt with?" ”

Chen Xiao nodded and said vaguely, "It's done." ”

Gu Shi'an nodded, was silent for a while, and said, "Chen Xun said ...... today"

She wanted to ask about the financial loopholes.

It's just that before she could say anything, she was interrupted by Chen Xiao, she took the water and handed it to her, and said lightly: "I'll deal with it, don't think nonsense." ”

He's always been evasive.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak now.

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he was casual and asked what he had eaten for dinner. also asked Qi Shiyun.

Gu Shi'an didn't eat much, Chen Xiao didn't eat much, and the last leftover barbecue Chen Xiao cleaned up.

It was almost one o'clock before the two of them lay down on the bed. Chen Xiao let his hands cover warmly, and then put them on Gu Shi'an's stomach, and said softly: "Go to bed early in the future, go to bed early and get up early is good for the baby." ”

Compared to the other day, he seems to have entered this role now. Even the voice is soft. After a slight pause, he continued: "I asked Assistant Sun to make an appointment to go for a prenatal checkup next month, and I will accompany you when the time comes." ”

He even made another appointment for a prenatal checkup. Gu Shi'an couldn't help but be stunned for a moment. The drowsiness that had already come ran away without a trace, and said, "Didn't you say that the prenatal examination would be a few months later?" ”

Chen Xiao said now: "Didn't I go with you last time, this time I will accompany you." ”

Gu Shi'an sighed vaguely and stopped talking.

It's late, it's long overdue for bed. Chen Xiao carefully hugged her again and said, "It's not early, go to sleep." ”

Gu Shi'an responded and closed his eyes.

There are so many things on her mind, where can she sleep. Afraid of noisy Chen Xiao beside her, she stiffened her body and lay down without moving. After a long time, I restrained myself from thinking about anything and closed my eyes.

Chen Xiao came back late, but left early in the morning. When Gu Shi'an got up, there was no one around him. She thought that Chen Xiao had gone downstairs, but when she didn't see him downstairs, she realized that he had gone out early.

Ye Qing smiled and said, "I'll go grocery shopping later." Chen Xiao said when he left today, let Auntie make up for you more, you are too thin. ”

Although she has an aunt, Ye Qing has always liked to do it herself.

Ye Qing's words were joking, and after speaking, he took breakfast and went out.

Qi Shiyun used to get up late, but these days she gets up early. Breakfast was served, and she had already returned from a walk outside.

Chen Xiao was not there, and the breakfast table was silent. What Chen Xun said last night was still in her head, and she wanted to go to Chang Yin's side.

Chen Xun's affairs, except for knowing that he cooperated with Xiao Si, she didn't know anything else. She has to find out a little bit of the details.

I don't know if Chen Xiao told her or what, she said that she was going out, Ye Qing smiled and said let the driver take her. Without waiting for her to speak, he called the driver.

The driver Ye Qing called was none other than Gu Shi'an's father's former driver. Gu Shi'an didn't expect Lao Fang to stay, and he was stunned when he saw him.

Lao Fang said with a smile: "Originally, I was going back, but Mr. Chen asked me to stay." I also found a school for my child. I also got a job for my child. ”

The work on the construction site is hard, and it is obviously easier here.

Chen Xiao is now unable to protect himself, and he still thinks of this. Gu Shi'an didn't know what he felt in his heart.

Lao Fang obviously also knew about Chen Xiao's company, but he was optimistic. On the way, he comforted Gu Shi'an, saying that Chen is always a good person, and a good person will definitely be good in the end.

Although Chen Xiao asked him to stay, he was not the driver on Chen Xiao's side. is to send children to and from school for others, and the other party takes a fancy to his honesty. The salary package is very good, and there are bonuses. He lives near here, and today is a part-time break.

There is less travel here in the old house, and the driver has already been dismissed. To go out, I call him most of the time.

The old man didn't say much, and after sending Gu Shi'an to Chang Yan's store, he said that he was shopping around the neighborhood and asked Gu Shi'an to go back and call him.

Gu Shi'an asked him to go back first, saying that he might go back later. Contact him when the time comes.

The old man hesitated for a moment, but nodded in the end.
