The words that came out of Chen Xiao's mouth couldn't tell which sentence was true and which was false, even if he asked, it was in vain.

Chen Xiao didn't know what to do and didn't go to bed. After pouring a cup of hot water, he sat down and turned his computer back on.

Gu Shi'an was still waiting for him to sleep first at first, but he didn't know when he closed his eyes and fell asleep for a long time.

The room was warm, and the bed was softer than when she moved in, and she slept until dawn without warning.

When she woke up the next morning, Chen Xiao's hand was on her waist, Gu Shi'an was slightly stunned, she didn't know when he went to bed last night.

She quickly came back to her senses, gently took Chen Xiao's hand away, and then got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up.

It was not early, and she washed up and hurried to breakfast. Chen Xiao slept late and didn't know when he would get up. She brought one for him while she was eating breakfast. When he got back to his room, he called him, told him that breakfast was on the table, and told him to get up and eat breakfast before going to sleep.

Chen Xiao didn't move, Gu Shi'an called him twice in a row, but he didn't get up, so he had to let him go out in a hurry.

The leader of the other party company had already come back last night, and the other party didn't seem to be in a hurry to talk about this business, and did not appear in the company. It's just that at noon, people booked a place in the restaurant in the town, saying that he personally picked up the wind and washed the dust for them.

I've been here for two days, and I've spent all my time eating, drinking, and resting.

The vice president and team leader Wang didn't seem to be in a hurry, they responded with a smile and said some compliments.

Gu Shi'an had some doubts in his heart, but the current atmosphere is like this, and a lot of business is negotiated at the wine table. Coupled with Secretary Shen's reminder last night, she didn't ask too much, and regarded herself as a transparent person. I also deal with it more carefully.

But in fact, the vice president did not target her. It's like she's just an ordinary employee. It's just that the more this happens, the more vigilant Gu Shi'an becomes. It's easy to not speak, and even if you say anything, it's just compliant.

The noon drinking party lasted until late in the evening, and everyone but the two ladies were drunk.

Back at the hotel, Chen Xiao was not there. I don't know where to go. His whereabouts here were quite hidden, and no one seemed to notice that there was one more person in her room.

Gu Shi'an looked at the bathroom and balcony, and took out his mobile phone to call Chen Xiao. But it didn't connect, and his phone was turned off.

Others don't know, but the front desk knows. Gu Shi'an originally wanted to go down and ask the front desk, but remembered what Chen Xiao said not to let people know that he was here, so he didn't go down in the end. I went to the bathroom and washed my hands, and then cleaned up the house briefly.

The breakfast she bought in the morning was gone, and she didn't see it thrown in the trash, so it should have been eaten by Chen Xiao. I just don't know when he got up to eat.

When night fell, it rained outside again, Chen Xiao still didn't come back, Gu Shi'an stood by the window and looked at the road outside, and it was a long time.

Chen Xiao didn't come back until ten o'clock, and he didn't know where he was going, and the clothes on his body were not wet this time.

He is so elusive, Gu Shi'an is curious and puzzled about his whereabouts. This place is remote, and I can't figure out where he went for recreation, so I couldn't help asking, "Where have you been?" ”

"Internet cafes play games." Chen Xiao replied lazily.

He smelled of smoke and didn't look like he was lying. After he finished speaking, he went straight to the bathroom.

When he came out, he had already taken a shower, looked at Gu Shi'an, and asked, "Where did all those people from your company go today?" How's the business going? ”

He's quite concerned about the progress of the business. Gu Shi'an didn't think much about it, and replied: "The leader of the other party only came back today and took care of us in the restaurant. Talks should be held tomorrow. ”

She looked at Chen Xiao and asked, "Have you arrived from your company?" ”

Chen Xiao sighed and said no. Then he picked up a towel and wiped his hair. He went to the Internet café to play games during the day, and at night he seemed to be very busy, holding his notebook and looking at something.

Gu Shi'an received a call from Secretary Shen while taking a shower, and she said that she had arranged someone and would fly over directly tomorrow. When the people come, let her go back. She would book a flight for her.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that his business trip would cause so many things for her, and thanked her apologetically.

Someone had already been arranged, and Secretary Shen breathed a sigh of relief and asked her not to be polite. She wasn't to blame for that. She asked again what they had done today.

Gu Shi'an simply said everything about today.

Secretary Shen was worried that she had done something wrong at work and would affect Sun Pengcheng, but she was relieved to hear that she was just picking up the wind and washing the dust. Tell her not to do anything alone. It only takes two days for people to arrive, and if they have to, just let her pretend to be sick.

When she was sick, she couldn't be allowed to work anymore.

It's just that this method can't be used as a last resort. Since they brought her over, if they find out that she is deliberately avoiding her, they don't know what kind of way they will respond. At that point, feigning illness may not work. Therefore, it can only be static braking. Let's look at it first.

Gu Shi'an knew that Secretary Shen was too worried, so he responded, and repeatedly said that he would look at the situation.

Secretary Shen hung up the phone after a while. Gu Shi'an only then began to take a bath. Because of the phone call, she had been taking a bath for a long time, Chen Xiao came and knocked on the door, so she quickly dried the water on her body and changed her clothes.

Chen Xiao still went to bed late this night, and Gu Shi'an got up earlier than usual the next morning. Originally, it was because I was going to start talking about it today, but who knows, but it didn't. When they gathered in the lobby of the hotel, they learned that the leader of the other party wanted to invite them to visit nearby attractions. It is said that they are rare to come, and they must always do their best to be a landlord.

Although Gu Shi'an had never followed him out on a business trip, he also knew that something was wrong. In this way, it doesn't look like it's out to talk about things, but it looks like it's out to play.

As if he knew what she was thinking, he smiled slightly while no one was paying attention, and said, "A lot of business is negotiated through fun. ”

It's a good thing that the other party treats them warmly, and it's better than treating them coldly.

I don't know where the scenic spot is here, but I heard that there are hot springs to soak. The group went back to the room to pack their simple luggage.

When Gu Shi'an returned to the room, Chen Xiao was still asleep, she pushed him and called Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao quickly opened his sleepy eyes this time.

Gu Shi'an said while packing up his simple clothes: "The other party company invited us to go to a nearby scenic spot to play, I don't know if we can come back tonight." ”

Chen Xiao seemed to be sober when he heard this, and narrowed his eyes slightly, but he didn't express any opinion, just yawned and said, "Go ahead." ”

He closed his eyes again as he spoke.

He had been here for two days, Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, and still asked, "When are you leaving?" ”

"I can't leave yet. Keep your phone open and I'll call you when I go. Chen Xiao said with his eyes closed. He rolled over as he spoke, and said, "Hurry up and pack your things down, they should call you in a while." ”

Gu Shi'an quickly packed up his things and went downstairs, and when he arrived at the staircase, Xiao Sure called her. She picked it up and told her she would go down at once.

Naturally, the people who went were not only them, but also several executives of the other company. This time I went to the scenic spot much better than when they came, the car was arranged by the other party's company, she and the secretary of the other company were arranged in a car, and there was plenty of space and no one smoked.

I heard that the scenic spot I went to was a hot spring scenic spot, with a hot spring at the bottom of the mountain and a snow scene at the top of the mountain. Although it is not yet winter, it is said that the top of the mountain is already covered with snow.

The secretary of the other party was very talkative, and he was not cold along the way. I don't talk about business, but I just accept scenic spots and entertainment facilities.

This side is biased, the scenic spot is not far away and not close, there are more than 80 kilometers. It was already raining outside, and the further north you went, the bigger the phoenix blew, and there was a faint tendency of a blizzard.

Xiao Xiao asked Secretary Zhu if it was going to snow, and Secretary Zhu smiled and said no. It's always been like this here. Not good. But the snow doesn't fall until the end of November and December, and now it's only at the top of the mountain. The altitude over there is higher.

The weather was bad, and although the road was flat, the car still drove for almost three hours to arrive. The temperature in the scenic area was lower, and when he got out of the car, Gu Shi'an couldn't help but shiver.

Secretary Zhu is wearing a professional attire, with a thick tweed coat on the outside. She was obviously used to this kind of temperature, and introduced with a smile as she led them to the lobby of the scenic hotel: "There are a lot of very distinctive snacks here, you can try them all later." There is also a mountain wine, so you can try it while soaking in the hot springs. ”

When the three of them went up, the car in front of them had already arrived, and the group was waiting in the hall. When she saw Secretary Zhu, the leader immediately asked her to take them to the room. There are a lot of things to play here, so let them come down to eat after putting their luggage down, and then relax and relax.

The company was quite generous and arranged a room for each person. is a separate room, and Gu Shi'an is also a separate room.

The food here is much better than the hotel, and the local snacks are available here. It is not suitable to soak in the hot springs when you are full, so Secretary Zhu arranged other programs. Take them to the game.

Gu Shi'an didn't want to go, but it was a group activity. It was obviously inappropriate for her not to go, so she had to follow.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that they were playing ordinary chess and card fun. But it's not. The group went to the hotel's underground casino.

Only then did Gu Shi'an know that this hotel was not just a hotel.

There aren't many guests in the casino, but it's not a few. According to Secretary Zhu, the people who come here are either rich or expensive. Of course, it's okay to just have fun. It's not a place to pick guests.

At first, Secretary Zhu's proposal was to let everyone play together, but everyone was considered 'their own people', so it was obviously not fun to play. Since they are all here, of course, they have to relax, so the leaders of the other party propose to play their own games.

There is no miasma in the casino, on the contrary, it is very orderly. Smoking is not allowed in the hall, there is a special smoking area. At first glance, you can tell that it is not an ordinary casino.

The luck of the group was good, especially the vice president and team leader Wang. It didn't take long to sit down and win a lot of chips.

There were only a few men playing, and when they got to the back, Secretary Zhu proposed to let Gu Shi'an and Xiao try their luck. Just play anyway.

It's really boring to stay, and it's better to be less than refreshing, and I also sat down and played. Gu Shi'an didn't play, only said that he wouldn't. Secretary Zhu didn't force her.

Winning money will make the mood high, and when you come, you just say it's fun, but when the time comes, no one asks to leave. Even the one who sat down in the back was full of red light.

Gu Shi'an didn't stay or leave, so he sat down in the secluded rest area. During the period, the vice president who won the money asked Secretary Zhu to come over and call her, saying that everyone was playing and let her play. He took out the chips, and if he lost, he counted him, and if he win, he counted Gu Shi'an's.

Gu Shi'an still refused because he couldn't play.

probably saw that she was bored sitting alone, so Secretary Zhu asked the waiter of the hotel to come and say that he wanted to take her to the hot springs. When they are done playing, everyone eats together in the evening.

Out of the casino, Gu Shi'an did not follow the waiter to the hot spring. Told him that he would go later, and slowly returned to his room.

The floors of the hotel here are not high, but the area is wide. There are quite a few people in the casino, but there are not many residents in the corridors.

It's like a hotel is just an incident, and the main business is a casino.

Secretary Zhu is very considerate and good at taking care of people, and when it was time for dinner, he called Gu Shi'an on time to ask Gu Shi'an to go down to eat.

Several people who played in the casino won and the atmosphere for dinner was nice. After dinner, we took a short break and met to soak in the hot springs.

The hot springs are silent, and there are no people in the cold. Less than won the money was very interested, and drank a lot of the hotel's home-brewed wine.

It is dangerous to drink too much outside, Gu Shi'an did not drink too much, but only drank two glasses symbolically.

There are only Gu Shi'an and less than two people in the huge pool, how is it wrong to be quiet like this, Gu Shi'an casually soaked for a long time and would lose sleep as an excuse, so he called Xiao Xiao to go back to the room together.

At night, there are even fewer waiters in the hotel, and there are still few guests. Before the two returned to the room, they met Secretary Zhu in the corridor.

Those guys went to the casino, and she had to be on the sidelines. Seeing the two of them, they asked them not to walk around at night, saying that this side was in the mountains after all, and it was relatively remote. Let's stay safe.

Less than doesn't care, and always wants to win more when you win. Seeing that Secretary Zhu was going to the casino, he gave Gu Shi'an all his things and asked her to take them back first, and she wanted to go to play and come back.

She said that without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak, she stuffed all her things into her hands.

She drank wine, and Gu Shi'an originally wanted to persuade her. But this persuasion must have been unpleasant, and she did not speak.

Secretary Zhu and Xiao Xiao left quickly, and Gu Shi'an was the only one left in the corridor for a while. I don't know why, she gave birth to an eerie feeling for no reason. She didn't stay long, and walked briskly to her room.

As soon as she opened the door, she sensed that something was wrong. She tightened her grip on the doorknob so she could get out whenever she wanted, and turned on the light.

There was indeed someone sitting in the room, but that person was Chen Xiao. Seeing her hand on the doorknob, the corners of her lips hooked slightly, and said, "The vigilance is quite strong." ”

Seeing that it was him, Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief, and asked as he walked into the room, "Why are you here?" ”

He didn't have a car, and it was remote, and there didn't seem to be any public transport to get there, so I don't know how he got there.

Chen Xiao picked up the cup in front of him and drank the tea slowly, and said slowly: "It's too boring to stay alone over there, so I came over." The environment here is much better than over there. ”

He said, looking around.

She was over there, he was over there, and he followed her when she came. Gu Shi'an didn't believe that he was bored, pursed his lips slightly, and said, "You came here on purpose." ”

Chen Xiao didn't deny it, glanced at her lazily, and said, "Don't you think there's something wrong here?" ”

He tapped his fingers twice on the armrest of the couch as he spoke.

He found out so quickly. Gu Shi'an was silent for a moment and said, "This should be a casino, not a hotel scenic spot." ”

Perhaps, the hotel scenic spot is just a disguise.

Chen Xiao should have agreed, looked at her with a pair of deep eyes, and asked, "Then what do you think, why did your cooperative company bring you here?" ”

How did Gu Shi'an know. After a deep sigh, he said, "Maybe they don't know. ”

This argument is far-fetched.

Chen Xiao snorted and did not speak.

His appearance made Gu Shi'an's heart bottomless, and she couldn't help asking, "Why?" ”

Chen Xiao replied directly this time that he didn't know. Then he said slowly: "The fox's tail will always be exposed." However, the beautiful woman was right, this is the middle of nowhere, and it is better not to go out at night. ”

He didn't know how he got into her room. However, it should be inconvenient for him to show up, Gu Shi'an stood for a while and asked, "Have you eaten?" ”

Chen Xiao looked at the time and asked, "What is there to eat now?" ”

Gu Shi'an didn't know what to eat now, so he called the front desk. It's past the time to eat, and there isn't much I can deliver now. Gu Shi'an asked them to cook a bowl of noodles.

It took a long time for the noodles to be delivered, and Gu Shi'an did not let the waiter into the room, saying that he would bring the bowl down tomorrow morning after eating.

The waiter didn't say much, but politely said a few words and left.

Gu Shi'an entered the room with his face, and then put it in front of Chen Xiao.

She didn't believe that Chen Xiao had come to talk about business now, and watched him eat noodles for a while before saying, "You came here specially." ”

Her tone was firm, not tentative.

Chen Xiao glanced up at her, and said with a smile: "If you want to think so, you can think so." ”

From his mouth, he couldn't ask a word. Gu Shi'an was more or less depressed and asked, "What are you here for?" ”

Chen Xiao didn't answer her, took a bite of noodles, and then said, "You don't care what I'm here for." I have my own business. After a slight pause, he continued, "This way...... Something is wrong. I'll bring it back to them tomorrow. ”

Gu Shi'an also had this intention and nodded.

The person who Secretary Shen asked to come over has already come, and he should be there tomorrow night. Naturally, she couldn't stay here.

It's just an excuse to wait until tomorrow to think about it.

Gu Shi'an looked at Chen Xiao, was silent for a moment, and said, "I'll go back tomorrow when the people sent by Secretary Shen come over, when are you going to leave?" ”

"I don't know." Chen Xiao said a word, smiled ambiguously, and said, "But if you feel bored on the journey, I can accompany you back." I can't make enough money anyway. ”

As soon as he finished speaking, his phone rang. He was no longer poor, picked up his phone, looked at it, and picked up the phone.

Gu Shi'an stood for a while and went to the bathroom.

The hotel is quiet inside, but even outside is silent. Because of Chen Xiao's presence, Gu Shi'an didn't feel afraid.

At eleven o'clock, Chen Xiao didn't go to bed. said that it was a hot spring in the dead of night, and he went out.

He obviously said that something was wrong here, and Gu Shi'an was a little worried when he went out at night. Although he was sleepy, he didn't sleep, and when he came back, he closed his eyes.

I don't know what time the group played the night before, but everyone got up early the next morning. Said he was going to the top of the mountain to see the snow.

That's what I'm here for.

The mountain is steep, and although there is a cable car, it does not reach the top. Halfway through, you have to climb up slowly.

Although there are not many people in the hotel, there are many people climbing the snow-capped mountains, and there are tourists all the way.

They climbed the snowy mountain, but Chen Xiao did not follow. When Gu Shi'an told him, he only said go.

How he has been looking at it lately is mysterious, Gu Shi'an ordered food for him to send to the room when he left, and then left.

I don't know what time I went to bed, and I kept yawning when I took the cable car. She went back last night and didn't know if she lost or what, and the whole person was listless. Even when talking to her, she is not right.

When she got to the back, Gu Shi'an stopped talking to her, and let her close her eyes quietly.

Secretary Zhu's spirit is good, and he has been introducing the scenery everywhere.

When I got off the cable car, I was suddenly filled with cold wind. After Secretary Zhu made a brief introduction, everyone stopped talking and preserved their physical strength to climb the mountain.

The steep mountain and slippery road make it tempting to see the snow, but not many people can actually climb it. From time to time there are people returning from breathlessness on the road.

It's listless, and it's not long since I climbed that I can't climb anymore. Let everyone keep climbing, and she will go back and wait for them.

She said that she couldn't climb, and the other two men who usually didn't exercise much also said that they couldn't crawl. They all said they would go back and wait.

It takes physical strength to go up the mountain, and it also takes physical strength to go down. Instead of going far and coming back, it's better to go back now.
