Chapter 195: Drunken Madness
(Cat flutter Chinese) new love and old love are meeting together, which is undoubtedly very embarrassing. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test Li Ran was not afraid of embarrassment at all, and looked at Chen Xiao with a slight smile.
The expression on Chen Xiao's face did not fluctuate in any way, and he said without any emotion
"Let's go together." In this way, it is obviously for Li Ran's face. The expression on Gu Lan's face froze, and Li Ran stepped forward to hold her arm affectionately and said
"Senior sister, I haven't seen you in years. The last time I saw you was at Mrs. Qiu's birthday party. We haven't been in touch in years. She didn't know that Gu Lan had divorced Qiu Shengmin.
After saying this, she immediately looked at Gu Shi'an and said
"Shi'an, I catch up with my senior sister, you won't mind, right?" She apparently did it on purpose. The relationship between Gu Lan and her is so good that it is reminiscent.
Gu Shi'an smiled faintly and said
"No, it won't." Gu Lan wanted to say something, Li Ran had already affectionately held her hand and opened the car door.
The two quickly got into the car, leaving Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao outside. She was about to get into the car, Chen Xiao reached out and opened the front door.
Gu Shi'an paused, said thank you, and then sat in the car. Chen Xiao just withdrew his hand when she sat in, and his hand touched hers.
Gu Shi'an's fingers were cold through ice. As if she hadn't noticed anything, she got into the car.
The atmosphere was dull all the way, and only Li Ran was talking. Gu Lan reluctantly smiled and responded.
Li Ran is long-sleeved and good at dancing, obviously similar to a stranger, but she has the ability to find one topic after another.
Chen Xiao's face was indifferent, and he occasionally answered a sentence or two when Li Ran asked. Gu Shi'an just sat like that, looking sideways at the window from time to time.
Chen Xiao didn't say a word to Gu Shi'an until he got out of the car, and when he got to the place, he stopped the car, Gu Lan politely thanked him politely, and then got out of the car with Gu Shi'an.
It was uncomfortable enough to be together, and she didn't say anything like going up for tea.
Chen Xiao didn't get out of the car, but Li Ran pretended to say a few words of greeting, and then left. The car drove away quickly, and Gu Lan looked at Gu Shi'an with some concern.
Without waiting for her to speak, Gu Shi'an said with a slight smile
"I'm fine." Gu Lan nodded, and the two walked inside together. Gu Lan hesitated slightly, but still asked
"Are they together?" Just now, Li Ran was obviously declaring sovereignty. Otherwise, how could they have to give them a ride?
Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile, shook his head, and said
"I don't know...... It should be. Strands of hair fell from her ears, and she reached out and flicked it, then continued
"It's not surprising to be together." She was originally Chen Xiao's happy person, and it would be strange if she wasn't together.
She has liked Chen Xiao for so many years, but she didn't expect it to be today. Gu Lan's heart was depressed, and he couldn't find words to comfort him, so he simply didn't say anything more.
Gu Lan planned to move over the weekend, and packed his luggage when he returned home. Except for the big suitcase sent by Cheng Xin, she didn't have much on her side, and she quickly packed them up.
She was worried about Gu Shi'an, and after packing up Gu Shi'an's washing, she took out the wine she bought back, poured a glass for Gu Shi'an, and said
"Let's have a drink." Gu Shi'an responded with a slight smile and sat down on the sofa. The liquor was very strong, and the liquor slid into the throat and immediately burned hot.
Gu Lan took out a bag of peanuts and served them as snacks. Neither of them spoke, just drank silently.
After drinking several glasses in a row, Gu Lan asked in a low voice
"Shi'an, are you uncomfortable?" After drinking wine, it seemed that even his nerves were half a beat slower, Gu Shi'an didn't speak in a daze, and shook his head after a while.
Said
"Nothing to feel bad about." She picked up her glass and took another sip of her wine. There's really nothing uncomfortable about it, it's just that I don't dare to think about it.
Actually, it's good. After so many years of entanglement, he finally got what he wanted, and she should congratulate her.
Gu Shi'an quickly collected his emotions, and turned his head to see Gu Lan drinking silently. After a moment, he asked
"Sister Lobby, are you reluctant?" These days, although she looks like nothing happened, after all, after being together for so many years, she always has some feelings.
Gu Lan smiled reluctantly, shook his head, and said
"There's nothing to be reluctant to." That being said, her eyes were reddish. Probably afraid of tears falling, he looked up at the light overhead.
Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment and asked again
"Do you like him?" Gu Lan looked at the light above his head and didn't move, took out a tissue to wipe the corners of his eyes, and said in a low voice after a long while
"Maybe it's loved." If you don't love it, at least life is not so sad. Although she and Qiu Shengmin are business marriages, what Cheng Xin taught her is the old society's set of marriage and husbandry.
From the day she got married, she wanted to be a good wife wholeheartedly. Husband and child.
Marrying into the Qiu family, she did her duty as a wife. Be filial to your in-laws and take care of your husband. Qiu Shengmin was a famous playboy in Lincheng before she got married, and she thought that as long as she worked hard, she would definitely be able to live in harmony.
Therefore, she never thought she knew about Qiu Shengmin's search for flowers and willows outside. Saying that Qiu Shengmin is not good, in fact, there are good times.
For example, when she was harassed by her mother-in-law, he would occasionally protect her. For a while, she was not feeling well, and casually said something she wanted to eat, and he actually got it for her in the middle of the night.
To say that it is not moved, it is false. It's just that when did Qiu Shengmin change? Maybe it's after the child doesn't have it.
Perhaps, he gradually realized that the Gu family could not help him in any way, but would only drag him back.
He is the youngest of the Qiu family, and his age is a little different from the two brothers. When he joined the company, the company had been divided by the two brothers.
Wait until he goes in, and the position given to him is just an empty position. At first, during the two years of playing hard, he didn't think there was anything wrong with this.
But by the time I realized it, it was too late. The sister-in-law and sister-in-law have their own powers, even if he wants to fight, without any help, he can't fight at all.
Only then did he realize that his parents, married to the already down-and-out Gu family, just didn't want him to help.
I just don't want the company to make waves again. He was originally inferior to his two elder brothers, how could they give him the rights of the company.
That's why he came home later and later, and it became more and more unpleasant to see her. What's more, the flowers and drinks have intensified outside.
Then, when she got home, she was slightly unhappy and punched and kicked her. She was full of anticipation at the beginning, and gradually became disheartened.
Gu Lan picked up the wine glass again and took a sip of wine. Her alcohol consumption was not good, and in the end, Gu Shi'an helped her back to the bed.
Dizzy, coming out of the room, Gu Shi'an didn't drink anymore, but stood on the balcony and looked at the lights outside.
Today's scene unconsciously came to mind, she closed her eyes and leaned against the wall, and after a long while, she went back to the house and lay on the bed.
After sorting out for a long time, all the materials in the archives were finally sorted out. But it wasn't what she wanted.
Moreover, none of the old information she had compiled was related to her father.
It's as if all that information has been singled out. This is something Gu Shi'an didn't expect, she had a lot of hope to find here, but she didn't expect that there was nothing here.
So, where did all that information go? Has it been destroyed? Or was it hidden?
No one knew the answer, and when she was so anxious, Qin Tang called her and told her that Sun Pengcheng, who had been looking for her, had nothing to do with which room of the Gu family it was.
He had been promoted from under the old man, and it seemed that he had always been neutral. But that doesn't mean anything, he doesn't seem to have anything to do with any of the rooms, it doesn't mean it really doesn't matter.
Perhaps, it is hidden deeper. There are many old employees in the Gu family, and he is the only one who threw an olive branch to Gu Shi'an.
Now that all the clues are broken, he is the only one. Qin Tang's advice was to go to his side and see what he wanted to do.
Now there is no other way, Gu Shi'an responded. Tell Qin Tang that she will call him later.
It's been a long time since I've seen Qin Tang, and after finishing the business, Gu Shi'an asked
"When will you be back?" He said he wanted to come back last time, but he never came back. Qin Tang said lightly
"There's a little bit of a delay, and I shouldn't be back until today." Gu Shi'an hung up the phone, stood for a while, and continued to pack up the information.
When he got off work, Chang Yan called over. Ask her if there's any progress here. Gu Shi'an told her that she had sorted out all the information, but she didn't find anything.
There is not even any information about her father. Chang Yan on the other side of the phone frowned and asked
"Where do you think it would have been if it hadn't been destroyed?"
"I don't know. There are a lot of people who can take the materials with them. "Whether it's her eldest uncle, second uncle, or third uncle, they can take away those materials.
Chang Yan on the other side of the phone pursed his lips and asked
"You said you missed it, old lady, and it is possible to take those materials with you." Yes, it is entirely possible that the old lady will put away the things related to her deceased son.
Chang Yan pondered for a moment and continued
"It's impossible for something to be taken away by no one to know, and during that time, someone in the data room should know." Gu Shi'an shook his head and said
"Over the years, there has been a lot of turnover here, and there have been several groups of people in the reference room. The employee's file is not here, and it is not easy to find it. "Even if you are lucky enough to find it, it has been so many years, and other people's contact information may have changed a long time ago.
Remembering that the old lady was coming, she paused slightly, and continued
"Auntie said that the old lady moved all the things in the study in the old mansion, and I took the time to go over and have a look." She had to prepare with both hands, and she couldn't find anything in the reference room.
She had to get close to Sun Pengcheng. She told Chang Yan about it. Chang Yan told her to be careful not to expose her purpose in a hurry.
If Sun Pengcheng is one of them, if she is exposed too early, her situation will definitely become very dangerous.
Gu Shi'an responded and hung up the phone. She hasn't found anything during this time, and these things are sooner rather than later.
She stood for a while and took out her mobile phone to call Sun Pengcheng. It didn't take long for the phone to be answered.
It's just that Sun Pengcheng doesn't know if he's entertaining or doing something, and it's a little noisy over there. However, Sun Pengcheng didn't put on a show, saying that he was busy now, and he would call her back when it was over.
Gu Shi'an responded, hung up the phone and originally wanted to call the aunt on the other side of the villa, but in the end he didn't call and got on the bus.
Sun Pengcheng called her back at about 10 o'clock in the evening, saying that it was late today, and he would call her at noon tomorrow to meet and talk about something.
Gu Shi'an responded. Probably to avoid the eyes and ears, Sun Pengcheng asked her to meet her at a café a little far away from the company at noon the next day.
Gu Shi'an didn't beat around the bush, and said as soon as he opened his mouth
"Under what pretext are you going to transfer me to the marketing department?" She was finally willing to go over, Sun Pengcheng breathed a sigh of relief, a smile appeared on his face, and said
"The marketing department has always been short of people, so let the assistant go to the personnel department and say it." Gu Shi'an looked at him, smiled faintly, and said
"You know that's not what I'm talking about." He is the head of the marketing department, and if he wants to transfer an ordinary staff member, it is just a matter of one sentence.
But her identity is different, what excuse she said refers to, how he talked to several members of the Gu family.
Sun Pengcheng took a sip of coffee and said lightly
"You don't have to worry about this, I'll ask the secretary to come to you tomorrow, and you can go directly to the marketing department." As for them, I'll deal with them when asked. "He is like this, obviously he has already thought of a way to deal with it.
Gu Shi'an didn't ask any more questions, and said politely
"Thank you, Mr. Sun." Sun Pengcheng said with a kind smile on his face
"You're welcome. You don't care if anyone says anything, I'll take care of it. He was in a slight trance as he said this, and then continued
"When your father was here, our marketing department was the most popular place. The annual year-end bonus alone is enough for other departments to envy. It's not as good as it used to be. He brought up her father again.
Gu Shi'an kept smiling and did not speak. The time to rest at noon was limited, and Sun Pengcheng quickly recovered from his embarrassment and called the waiter to give Gu Shi'an something to eat.
The lunch break is short, and it is far away from here, so it will be delayed a lot of time when you go. Gu Shi'an politely refused, saying that she would go back to the company first.
Meals can be eaten another day. Sun Pengcheng didn't force him to stay, and told her again that she didn't have to worry about anything, he was there.
Gu Shi'an thanked him before leaving. I'm going to go to the marketing department, and I don't know what the situation will be.
Gu Shi'an was a little uneasy in his heart, and he didn't go home after work, but went to the store, planning to talk to Chang Yan.
The store was still very busy, and Xiao Wu was surprised to see Gu Shi'an go by. knew that she was here to find Chang Yin, and told her that Chang Yan was now in the back kitchen and was a little busy.
Gu Shi'an smiled and nodded, asking if there was anything he could help with. Now is the time to be busy, and there are not enough people.
Xiao Wu handed over the front desk to her. This busy was busy until more than ten o'clock. Chang Yan didn't know that Gu Shi'an was coming, and he was stunned for a moment when he saw her coming, and subconsciously looked upstairs.
She quickly walked towards Gu Shi'an and asked
"When did you come here?" Gu Shi'an smiled slightly and said
"I'll be here after work." Probably because she was busy with something just now, her heart was not as depressed as when she came.
Chang Yan reached out and rubbed the tip of his nose and asked
"Have you eaten? Just leave it to Xiao Wu here, I'll get you something to eat, what do you want to eat? "Probably because of something on my mind, I didn't eat anything after work, but I didn't feel hungry at all.
Gu Shi'an said that he could eat anything. There weren't many ingredients left in the back kitchen, and Chang Yan cooked two bowls of seafood noodles.
Gu Shi'an was originally going to eat outside, but Chang Yan just let him eat inside. Said they were still cleaning up outside.
Halfway through the noodle eating, Xiao Wu called Chang Yan that something was wrong, and Chang Yan put down the bowl and went out. I don't know what happened, she didn't come back until Gu Shi'an finished eating noodles.
Gu Shi'an cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks, and then went out. As soon as she went out, she saw Chen Xiao coming down from upstairs.
He must have drunk wine, and his handsome face was a strangely red. It adds a bit of demonity.
Seeing Gu Shi'an, his footsteps paused slightly. His hand held on to the handle of the staircase. Gu Shi'an also didn't expect to see him here, so he didn't move.
I don't know why he's here. Chen Xiao didn't know what he wanted to do, he stood at the stairs and didn't move, just looked at her.
Time seemed to freeze in an instant. After so many dozens of seconds, Chen Xiao said in a dumb voice
"Come here." There was a rare weakness in his voice. As soon as his words fell, Chang Yan walked in from outside.
Seeing that Gu Shi'an had come out, she was slightly stunned, and then stepped forward quickly and said
"Mr. Chen, do you need to call a taxi for you?" Chen Xiao seemed to be very drunk, reached out and pressed his eyebrows, and said
"Okay." As if it wasn't him who had just spoken, he staggered down the stairs. Chang Yan immediately asked Xiao Wu to step forward to help him.
But he refused, and walked out crookedly. He was originally walking well, but when he arrived at the door, he suddenly stopped again, looked at Gu Shi'an with a pair of dark eyes, and said
"You, come here." Chang Yin stepped forward quietly and said
"Mr. Chen, you're drunk." Chen Xiao leaned directly against the wall and said
"Let her send me back." As he spoke, he walked back and sat down in the chair closest to the door. and commanded as if in his own house
"If you're thirsty, pour me a cup of tea." It was as if he was going to stay here. Drunk people are difficult to serve, but fortunately, all kinds of guests have already seen it.
Xiao Wu quickly poured him another glass of water. Chen Xiao didn't take the water, looked at Gu Shi'an, and said
"I want her to pour it for me." When he is like this, he is obviously trying to find fault. There are no guests in the hall now, but there are still guests upstairs.
Chang Yan was about to step forward immediately, Gu Shi'an said in a low voice
"I'll go over and pour." There are guests here, and it is obviously not good to make a noise. Chang Yan wanted to say something, but in the end he still watched her step forward.
Gu Shi'an quickly poured a glass of water and put it in front of Chen Xiao. Chen Xiao took the cup this time, just touched the teacup and said
"It's hot, I'm going to drink warm." He was drunk and had always been difficult to serve. Gu Shi'an didn't say a word, and poured him a glass of water again.
This time the water temperature was appropriate, Chen Xiao's brows furrowed slightly, and he took the water and drank it.
He must have been really thirsty, and he drank a glass of water. After drinking, he stopped making trouble, and said to Gu Shi'an
"Send me back." As he spoke, he stood up crookedly and walked out. Probably because he was afraid that Gu Shi'an would not follow, he glanced back at Gu Shi'an when he left.
Gu Shi'an didn't say anything and followed. Chen Xiao walked unsteadily, and after taking two steps, he was about to look back at Gu Shi'an.
His car stopped not far away, and when he opened the door, he fell crookedly on the passenger seat.
Then he handed the car keys to Gu Shi'an. Gu Shi'an reached out and took the key and sat in the driver's seat.
She has a shadow on the car and hasn't driven it for a long time. It's a little rusty. She had just plugged in the key, and before the car started, Chen Xiao on the side suddenly shouted
"Gu Shi'an." Gu Shi'an's movements paused, and he looked sideways at him. Chen Xiao's eyes were dark, and he looked straight at him.
Gu Shi'an glanced at him and asked
"What's wrong?" As soon as her words fell, Chen Xiao suddenly stretched out his hand and grabbed his hand.
Probably because of the wine, his hands were sweaty. Before Gu Shi'an could react, he held her in his arms.
The smell of alcohol hit his nose, and he bit her lip. He was eager, yet so gentle. Cautiously, as if he was afraid of hurting her.
His lips were so familiar, yet so unfamiliar. A tingling pain welled up almost immediately.
When she was in a trance, Chen Xiao had already pried her teeth open. Absorb everything that belongs to her. His hand was holding Gu Shi'an tightly, as if he wanted to rub her to the bones.
Gu Shi'an came back to his senses and wanted to push him away. But he hugged him tightly. His lips moved away from hers, his head resting between her necks, and he whispered
"Let me hug, let me hug." His voice was hoarse, muttering. The sound was so faint that it was almost inaudible.
Gu Shi'an's body stiffened violently, her eyes were inexplicably astringent, and she looked at the roof of the car with her eyes open.
