Chapter 123: Playing a scoundrel

As he spoke, he stretched out his hand and turned on the light, looking at Gu Shi'an coldly.

Staying in the dark for too long, the sudden light made Gu Shi'an a little unable to open his eyes. She quickly got used to it, just looked at Chen Xiao, and after a while, she suddenly smiled faintly and said, "Even if I like him, so what." Like who doesn't like whom, I guess that's my freedom. ”

She specifically accentuated the word freedom.

Chen Xiao was stunned for a moment. But in just a few seconds, he came back to his senses, grabbed Gu Shi'an's wrist tightly, gritted his teeth and said, "Who made you like him?" Didn't you say you liked me? ”

He seemed to be in a state of madness, his eyes red.

Gu Shi'an's wrist was pinched by him, Chen Xiao made her a little scared like this, she struggled hard to let go of his hand, but the more she struggled, the tighter he pinched.

Gu Shi'an's face turned a little pale, and he endured the pain and said word by word: "Let go of me!" ”

Chen Xiao didn't speak. Didn't let her go either. A pair of blood-red eyes stared at her like that. It's like waiting for an answer.

Gu Shi'an raised his head and met his gaze, and said word by word: "I like whoever I like?" Does anyone say I can only like you anymore? ”

There were so many things that came to mind, and the more she spoke to the back, the harder her voice became.

Chen Xiao's hand that clenched her wrist was released, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Good, good, good!" ”

He couldn't stay any longer, and immediately got out of bed. Slammed the door and left.

I didn't know where he was going in the middle of the night, Gu Shi'an couldn't care about it, so he closed his eyes and lay quietly on the bed.

When Gu Shi'an got up the next day, the old lady had already gotten up, and she didn't know if she heard anything last night. Seeing that Gu Shi'an was alone, he asked, "Where did Chen Xiao go?" ”

Gu Shi'an knew that the old lady was going to interrogate, so he made the same appearance as usual, and said, "He has something to do, so he left early today." ”

When she said this, she did not dare to look at the old lady.

Fortunately, the old lady didn't suspect anything and nodded.

I have to go to work tomorrow, and Gu Shi'an has to go back in the evening. She originally came over to pick up the old lady and go back together, but the old lady didn't go back, saying that it was quiet here, and she wanted to stay for a few more days and let Gu Shi'an go back, don't worry about her, she is fine here.

She used to come here, but she only stayed for three days. But the longest time was a week. Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment and asked the old lady to take care of herself.

The old lady smiled and nodded, and asked the driver to send Gu Shi'an back. Gu Shi'an refused at this time, saying that he would just take the car back.

She has always been stubborn, and the old lady did not insist. When he sent her down the mountain, he said, "An An." Is it okay for grandma to buy a scooter? Not to mention commuting, it is also convenient when traveling on business. Won't be delayed on the road for so long. ”

Gu Shi'an's movements paused slightly, and then said seriously: "You know, I don't like driving. ”

The old lady was slightly distracted and patted her hand gently.

This topic did not continue, and after such a while, Gu Shi'an did not let the old lady send it again.

The old lady stopped, but she didn't go back to the temple immediately, Gu Shi'an's figure disappeared for a long time, and she was still standing at the temple gate without moving.

It wasn't until the aunt next to her reminded her that she came back to her senses. trembling, he followed his aunt back to the temple.

Gu Shi'an didn't sleep much all night, and on the way back to the city, he leaned on the car and dozed off.

I hadn't seen Chang Yan for a few days, so she called her when she was in the car. Said he stopped by to see her.

Chang Yan asked her to go directly now, saying that she was not very busy today, and the two of them had dinner together in the evening.

Gu Shi'an responded, got in the car and continued to call.

There was a traffic jam back to the city, and it was already past six o'clock when Gu Shi'an arrived at Chang Yan's side. As twilight fell, the alleys were bustling.

She didn't call Chang Yan this time, but the little sister in her store knew her. Probably Chang Yan had already said hello, so she directly took Gu Shi'an to sit down, poured her a cup of tea, and then went to call Chang Yin.

Chang Yan was busy, so she asked her little sister to bring Gu Shi'an a plate of pastries, saying that she would come over after she finished what she was doing.

Gu Shi'an worked in the private room for more than half an hour, and Chang Yan came over. She didn't come empty-handed, but with food.

Seeing Gu Shi'an, he smiled slightly and said, "Wait for a long time." These are all made by me, and there are two dishes that I have just learned, you can try them. ”

As she spoke, she lowered the tray and laid out the dishes inside.

Naturally, she made more than these dishes, and a little sister brought a few more dishes later. Chang Yan asked her to eat first, and then went back to the kitchen.

When he came back, he took a bottle of red wine in his hand, raised it towards Gu Shi'an, and said, "This is a gift from the boss, I heard that it was produced by a friend's winery." ”

Her boss sounds like she's good at anywhere. Gu Shi'an was a little curious, and asked, "Aren't your bosses here?" How come I've never seen one? ”

Chang Yan took a cup and poured her wine, and said, "He is always there, but you are unlucky, and he happened to be not there when you came." ”

Gu Shi'an nodded, thought for a while, and said, "I feel that the other person is very good, next time if he has time, I will invite him to dinner." Thank you for taking care of you all the time. ”

There was a bit of seriousness in her tone.

Chang Yan smiled slightly, and also responded seriously. Motioned for her to start eating.

The ingredients in their restaurant are specially supplied by the base, and both vegetables and meat are much fresher than outside. Coupled with Chang Yan's good craftsmanship, Gu Shi'an ate a lot more than usual. I also drank several glasses of wine.

Chang Yin was not busy, and the two of them left the private room after eating. She still had to go to the back kitchen to say hello, so she asked Gu Shi'an to wait in the hall.

There was a large fish tank in the hall towards the wall, and Gu Shi'an walked over with nothing to do, looking at the fish swimming inside.

After standing for less than five minutes, a voice came, "It's a coincidence, Senior Sister Gu is also eating here?" ”

Gu Shi'an turned around, and Luo Yun walked over on high heels. I don't know if the rumors are true or not, she looks a little thinner than before. A thick layer of powder fell on his face.

She was accompanied by a young girl, probably her friend.

Gu Shi'an said lightly: "It's quite a coincidence." ”

Luo Yun probably wanted to show off her position in front of her friends, her chin was raised again, and she said, "How did I hear that Senior Sister Gu seems to be asking for leave all this time?" ”

Gu Shi'an glanced at her with a smile and said, "When will Deputy Director Luo still take care of this matter?" The company doesn't seem to have a rule that doesn't allow employees to take leave, right? Recently, I don't seem to have seen Deputy Director Luo in the company. ”

Luo Yun originally wanted to take advantage of Gu Shi'an's leave to knock her, but she couldn't help but choke when she said that. Immediately changed the topic, raised his eyebrows and asked, "How is Senior Sister Gu staying in the data room recently?" ”

She was a little triumphant. Gu Shi'an smiled faintly and said, "TOEFL, it's good." ”

Her voice just fell. Chang Yan walked over. I was a little surprised to see Gu Shi'an meet an acquaintance in the store. Just as he was about to ask Gu Shi'an if he was a friend, Luo Yun sneered and left directly.

Chang Yan was slightly stunned and asked, "......Who is she?"

Gu Shi'an said lightly: "A colleague in the company." ”

Chang Yan nodded and did not speak.

When the two of them slowly walked out of the alley and took the car, she looked at Gu Shi'an and asked, "You took so many days off some time ago, how are you in the company?" ”

Gu Shi'an smiled and said something very good. She was a little dazed, and she didn't even know what the point was in staying like that.

It's really pointless to think about it, although it's so hard to stay, it's more or less emotional. But the company of today is no longer the company it used to be.

She was momentarily distracted.

Chang Yan probably saw that she was different from usual, was silent for a while, and said, "If you're not happy, don't do it." ”

Gu Shi'an nodded at this time and said, "I'm already thinking about resigning." ”

She had been convincing herself to wait. At this moment, she was at a loss, and she didn't even know what she was waiting for.

It is undoubtedly pointless to continue like this now, you have to intrigue, and you have to beware of people putting cold arrows in the back. There's really no point in staying any longer. Perhaps, it would be nice to change places.

With her qualifications, she doesn't have to worry about having no job when she goes out. But she was seriously insecure, and the first thing that came to her mind when she thought of quitting her job was how much money she had. Then I thought about finding a home first and then resigning.

Chang Yan also nodded, and said seriously: "There are many things to do during this time, you should also take a break." Don't rush to find a job yet, take a break for a while and adjust your state before looking for a job. I have a job now and can support you. ”

Gu Shi'an smiled and agreed. She didn't want to stay on the topic and changed the subject.

Probably made up her mind to resign, and she was much more relaxed. There was night nearby, and it was still early to go back, so Chang Yan proposed to go around.

Sometimes there are good things in the night market, and she likes to come to this kind of stall when she is still open. If you're lucky, you'll be able to find something that is rarely seen at a very low price.

Although it is still early at this time, the night market is already very lively. Chang Yan bought skewers on the side of the road. The two of them were swaying around while eating.

It is rare for the two of them to be so comfortable, Gu Shi'an bought several very distinctive porcelain cups and a lovely pillow.

Halfway through the night market, Chang Yan's mobile phone vibrated in his pocket.

She didn't take it, took it out, looked at it, and put it back in her pocket. But it didn't take long for the phone to vibrate again.

Gu Shi'an also paid attention to it now, and asked tentatively, "Is there something wrong?" ”

Chang Yan shook his head and said no, then pointed to the place that was not too noisy on the side, and said, "I'll go over there to answer the phone." ”

Gu Shi'an nodded and told her that he was waiting for her here. Then he crouched down and picked up the gadgets on the ground.

Chang Yan's phone call took a little long, and he still couldn't come back after more than ten minutes. Gu Shi'an looked at the time, hesitated for a moment, and walked in the direction she was walking.

Chang Yan walked a little far, and she bypassed the crowd before she saw her standing on the edge of the alley answering the phone. She was facing away from her, and she couldn't see the expression on her face.

Gu Shi'an didn't plan to call her, so he stood aside and looked up at the dark night sky.

She didn't stand for long, and Chang Yan hung up. Looking back, I saw that she was slightly stunned. Then he said, "It's a little bit ......."

She answered the phone for so long, there must be something. Gu Shi'an didn't wait for her to say anything, and said, "You go and get busy with you, I'll just go around and go back by myself." ”

Chang Yan looked at the time, hesitated, and said, "I'll send you to the car." ”

Gu Shi'an shook his head and said with a slight smile: "I'm not a child, I'll go back by myself." You go first, I'll walk around for a while. ”

Chang Yan didn't say anything at this time, asked Gu Shi'an to call her when he got home, and then turned around and left. Her figure is thin. Soon disappeared into the flow of people.

Gu Shi'an was still interested in shopping, until he couldn't see her anymore, so he turned around, walked to the side of the road, and stood on the side of the road to stop the car.

At this time, the car was not very easy to stop, Gu Shi'an stopped a few cars on the side of the road, so he simply walked to the bus stop and took the bus.

Although the car is not easy to stop, there are not many people in the bus. She didn't find a place to sit, so she stood and looked at the scenery outside. It wasn't until I got to the place that I came back to my senses and got out of the car.

The fruit stall on the side of the road had not yet closed, so Gu Shi'an's footsteps paused and walked over to buy some apples.

The community is quiet, but tonight is a little strange, and there are no people who come out for a walk.

Gu Shi'an felt something was wrong when he took a few steps, as if someone was following behind him. Because last time, her nerves tensed up all of a sudden, and she pretended to look back inadvertently. only to find that there was no one behind him.

She was a little uneasy, and couldn't help but speed up her pace. When I arrived in the community, I was relieved to see that there were still old people sitting and chatting in the gazebo. I couldn't help but look back again, but there was still no one behind me, and there were many shadows in the trees under the lights.

She only thought that her nerves were too tense, reached out and pressed her eyebrows, and walked upstairs quickly.

Back at home, she drank a glass of water. I took another hot shower and sat down on the couch. I turned on my computer. Browse through job postings.

There are quite a few companies recruiting, and several of them are well-known in the local area. Gu Shi'an looked around, and then checked the front on his card. Staring blankly at the computer.

If she wants to resign, she has to talk to Peng Xue anyway. She wanted to call her, but by this time she was already coaxing the child to sleep.

Gu Shi'an didn't call again and sent her an email.

She breathed a sigh of relief when she sent out the email, turned off the computer, and went back to her room to sleep.

Probably thinking about a lot of things, she tossed and turned for a long time before she fell asleep. I don't know if it was because she felt like someone was following her at night or what, but she dreamed of the two nights she was kidnapped again.

It seemed that she was still in the small cave, but this time there was no rope to tie it, but for some reason, she just couldn't move.

Surrounded by darkness, she was terrified and desperate. wanted to run away, but the body didn't listen to her call at all.

Her dream was a little long, and it was clear before, but it became messy later. She wanted to wake up, but she couldn't.

When he woke up, it was already bright outside, and after a night of dreaming, Gu Shi'an was a little prostrate. Everything around her seemed so unreal, she reached out and pinched herself, felt the pain, and then came back to her senses.

It was still early, but she didn't have the energy to make breakfast at all. I sat in bed for a long time, and I didn't get up until I was almost late.

Her eyes jumped a little hard in the shower, she reached out and rubbed the corners of her eyes, rubbed her cheeks vigorously, and then went out.

I don't know what kind of luck it was today, but when I was at the door, I met Luo Yun who came to work. Gu Shi'an didn't bother to look at her villainous face, and went to the data room without saying hello.

When she arrived at the data room, Xiao Wang had not yet arrived, and the first thing she did when she turned on the computer was to type a resignation report.

The resignation report was good for her, and when Xiao Wang came over, she told her that she was going to resign.

She wants to leave, and Xiao Wang naturally wants to leave too. But it was obviously not appropriate for the two to go together, so Xiao Wang asked her to go first, and when she found a new company, she would go over.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that Peng Xue's side would not reply until the afternoon, but not long after going to work, Peng Xue called.

She knew what the company's heart was like, and she did not stop Gu Shi'an from resigning. Instead, he asked her if she needed her help. She has some connections in this industry, and it is more than enough to introduce a new job to Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an thanked her, and euphemistically said that he planned to see for himself.

Peng Xue didn't say much, and only asked Gu Shi'an to call her again if she needed her help. She used to keep Gu Shi'an. I think I will go back to the company after my maternity leave. But after becoming a mother, her mood is different, she is reluctant to leave her child to the nanny, and this time the company is far away.

Mr. Qu let San'er come to Hu, so she naturally didn't want to keep Gu Shi'an in the company anymore.

Hanging up the phone, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief. The resignation was submitted directly to the personnel department.

In fact, it stands to reason that she has to hand over her resignation to Luo Yun. She didn't want to deal with her at all, so she had to hand it to Manager Dou.

It took a few days for the resignation to be approved, and she still went back to the data room to do her work. Since you are leaving, you have to have a meal with Xiao Wang. When she could leave work early, she asked her what she wanted to eat, and she invited her to a big meal.

Xiao Wang thought about it seriously and decided to go to the seafood buffet. Gu Shi'an was up to her. I left the company after getting off work with a little pinch.

As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw a man in a neat suit standing aside with a bouquet of red roses.

Xiao Wang immediately wowed, and just happened to gossip with Gu Shi'an about whose suitor this was, and the man holding the rose walked towards them.

With a smile on his face, the man walked directly in front of Gu Shi'an and asked, "May I ask Miss Gu, right?" ”

Xiao Wang's eyes had already appeared with stars, and without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak, he nodded violently and said, "Yes, yes." ”

The smile on the man's face remained unchanged, and he handed the flower to Gu Shi'an, and said, "A gentleman entrusted me to send it over." If you have time, he wants to invite you over for dinner. ”

Gu Shi'an didn't know the current situation, but before she could react, Xiao Wang next to her couldn't wait and said, "She has time." A lot of time. ”

After she finished speaking, she seemed to be afraid that Gu Shi'an would refuse, so she pulled her aside and said, "Go ahead, let's go, the big dinner will be the same tomorrow." It's just too romantic, whoever he makes an appointment, be romantic first. ”

Although her voice was low, her whole person was as excited as if she had been beaten with chicken blood.

Gu Shi'an didn't bother to pay attention to her, and he didn't pick up the flowers sent by the man. "I'm sorry, I don't know the gentleman you mentioned. It's also not available. You're probably looking for the wrong person. ”

She was absolutely sure she hadn't known anyone lately. Nor could anyone send her flowers and invite her to dinner.

The smile on the man's face remained unchanged and said, "You are Miss Gu Shi'an, right?" ”

Gu Shi'an glanced at him suspiciously and nodded.

"That's you. The gentleman showed me your picture, and he said you knew him. As for who it is, you'll know in the past. ”

I don't know who is so boring to play this kind of trick.

Gu Shi'an didn't want to think about it and said, "I'm sorry, I'm not available." ”

There are more and more people coming out of the company, and standing here is undoubtedly conspicuous. Gu Shi'an didn't stop after saying this, and pulled Xiao Wang to walk in the direction of the station.

Xiao Wang was more or less regretful, and asked in a low voice, "Sister Gu, aren't you going?" ”

Gu Shi'an had nothing to do with her, and said angrily and funny: "I don't even know who it is, what am I going to do?" ”

Xiao Wang's eyes rolled and said, "Maybe it's someone you know?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't think about it now, and said that it was impossible.

Xiao Wang was a little stupid and pouted.

The two walked to the side of the station, and after walking for a while, Xiao Wang turned his head and glanced back, stretched out his hand and pulled Gu Shi'an's clothes, and said, "Sister Gu, he is still following you." ”

Gu Shi'an's footsteps paused, and when he turned around, the man really followed.

He was holding a large bouquet of flowers that was very conspicuous, and Gu Shi'an was more or less annoyed. Turning around, he stopped, and asked, "What the hell do you want to do?" ”

The man smiled slightly and said, "That gentleman said so." If you don't, I'll follow you all the time. ”

He was a little embarrassed, but it didn't feel like a joke at all.

This is completely a scoundrel, Gu Shi'an couldn't help but grit his teeth.
