Chapter 543: Affection

After Gu Chang finished speaking, Xue Xiaoman was silent for a while. She lightly opened her lips and changed to a light tone: "The eloquence is good, and the words are quite pleasant." ”

At the end of this conversation, Gu Changzai and Xue Xiaoman did not communicate again, and the silence extended until the sports car stopped at the foot of Building A in the industrial zone, and extended until the two parted ways when the elevator rose to the 11th floor.

"Goodbye."

"Hmm." Xue Xiaoman said.

Gu Changzai's back disappeared behind the closed elevator door, Xue Xiaoman folded his arms, pursed his lips lightly, and had a complicated expression on his mind.

She didn't like the words that Gu Chang was saying, those words seemed too heavy. Obviously, the reason why he is good to Gu Changzai is all because this man has value worth cultivating, and he is likable as a man in all aspects. That's why I like it, it's just "like", why should it rise to "kindness"?

However, is it good to accept that you are good for him with peace of mind?

Xue Xiaoman patted his heart gently. The elevator had reached 15 floors, and she had put all her non-work-related thoughts behind her, gathered her mind, and got ready to get to work.

After getting off work on the first day, Xue Xiaoman didn't go downstairs to find Gu Changzai. Gu Chang sat alone in the department office at sunset for half an hour, sorted out the data and experience records obtained from today's inspection and practice in the power mecha warehouse, glanced at the folding computer sent without any information, and got off work alone.

The purple sky gradually entered the dark blue moonlit night, and the huge A building was completely dark, except for an office on the 15th floor.

Xue Xiaoman sat alone at his desk, his elbows propped up on the table, his fists pressed against his temples. Her desk is full of stacks of data rooms full of formulas and pictures, and the whole is quite cluttered.

On the top piece of the pile lies an analytic portrait of the human brain, with thin lines extending around various areas of the human brain and annotating dense text. This image is like a magic spell, it has been imprinted into Xue Xiaoman's memory, and it is so imprinted that he can dream of it in his dreams.

On the eve of the locking door of the building again, Xue Xiaoman exhaled.

She couldn't give up, but she never saw hope, one that would break the current impasse in the research phase.

There are still two months left before the death line of the crossing, and two months is already in the last third of the half-year research stage, and if the A3 department she leads does not deliver perfect results after the time, she will be held accountable from above. Accountability is a trivial matter, and the failure of the A3 department to shoulder the heavy responsibility on its shoulders and the failure to improve the military defense force of Noah's base are the most important major matters.

Xue Xiaoman packed up his desk, turned off the lights in the office and walked out. In the elevator, she couldn't see the light in the darkness that had been. She habitually took out the folding computer, and after scanning the list of information at a glance, she clicked on the contact Gu Chang in the chat box.

Xue Xiaoman hesitated for a while, and finally turned off the screen of the folding computer after the elevator reached the first floor.

......

Xue Xiaoman drove his sports car and drove around the business district. She was not in the mood to go to Cape Cavis today, because it was worse to be alone with a drink to drown her sorrows during an already unsuccessful work period. She thought about it for a moment, parked the car on the side of the street, and walked into the commercial building in the middle of the business district.

The skyscraper-like commercial building is full of bright lights, and Noah's City has the largest traffic at night, and this commercial building perfectly imitates the commercial buildings of the civilized era, and has almost all the entertainment of the civilized era that can be reproduced in the last days.

In a place where there are many people, Xue Xiaoman will be more energetic, she is such a character.

At this moment, a slight vibration suddenly came from the handbag. Xue Xiaoman didn't know who would be looking for her so late, and someone's face flashed in her mind, and she immediately took out the folding computer.

It was Gu Xianglin who sent the message. Xue Xiaoman looked at the content posted by Gu Xianglin, and there was a sentence written on it, "Sister Xiaoman, are you in a commercial building?" ”

Xue Xiaoman sent out a line of words: "Yes, how do you know?" ”

The other end quickly replied with a message: "It turns out that we were not wrong just now, Sister Xiaoman, you turn back." ”

Xue Xiaoman looked back and Gu Xianglin rushed out of the crowd.

"Sister Xiaoman, good evening!" Gu Xianglin trotted up and grabbed Xue Xiaoman's hand. Obviously, she was very happy to meet Xue Xiaoman after work.

"Good evening. By the way, you just sent 'we', who are you with? Xue Xiaoman didn't miss this detail.

"It's me." A mature male voice came from the side, and as soon as Xue Xiaoman heard this voice, the smile on his face was three points less for a moment.

She looked up and saw that Gu Changzai was standing five steps away from her. He touched his nose and looked at Xue Xiaoman's eyes with a little emptiness.

"Why are you with Linlin?"

"It's a chance encounter." Gu Xianglin didn't notice the slight change in Xue Xiaoman's tone, and said with a smile.

Gu Changzai met Gu Xianglin again, and looking at Gu Xianglin's appearance, Gu Chang probably amused her again in this man.

"Sister Xiaoman, you haven't had dinner yet, have you?" Gu Xianglin mentioned.

"Hmmm......"

"That's just the three of us together."

Gu Changzai and Xue Xiaoman did not refuse, and agreed to the situation.

Moments later, the three of them sat in a hot pot restaurant. The decoration style of this store is antique, the environment is clean and good, and the fresh ingredients used in the store are all from the plantations of Noah City, although it reproduces the low-to-medium level of consumption in the civilized era, it is a very high-end enjoyment in the last days.

As soon as the dish was served, Gu Xianglin hummed a song alone to adjust the sauce. In front of and behind a small square table, Gu Changzai and Xue Xiaoman sat opposite each other, and the atmosphere was a little subtlely awkward.

The awkward atmosphere came down from Xue Xiaoman's blunt reply to some of Gu Changzai's heartfelt words in the morning. This was originally not a big deal, but after a week when Gu Changzai finished his studies in the A5 department, the two of them exchanged things about work, and it would naturally be resolved.

However, it was during such a delicate period that the two of them met again, and this time plus Gu Xianglin were three people. Just yesterday they became "lovers". The scene at this time is a kind of indescribable meeting for both parties, which should be said to be fate, but it seems that there are more bad ingredients.

"Don't you explain? If you're not lucky enough to run into me, shouldn't you be going to attack Gu Xianglin in our department? Xue Xiaoman said lightly.

"It's not what you think, the two of us met by chance in the square outside the commercial building, and I didn't dare." Gu Changzai could only respond like this.

"Really? I think Linlin likes you a lot. My relationship with you is limited, and you can develop a normal relationship. Xue Xiaoman said while putting vegetables into the pot where the soup was churning.

Gu Chang was about to scold the street in his heart, this 10,000 percent is a backword, this Xue Xiaoman is definitely jealous in his heart! But if he says it, even if there is even a hint of seeing through it, his eight achievements will be finished.

Xue Xiaoman is not the kind of person who will fry emotionally when she is angry, Gu Changzai knows Xue Xiaoman's character, she must be cold when she is angry. The Cold War will always be more difficult to deal with than quarrels.

"Fight the truth offensive? But my heartfelt words in the morning directly aroused her disgust. Gu Chang said in this heart.

Besides, where did he come from to touch people's true feelings?

Gu Chang hesitated and hesitated, and Gu Xianglin came back. At this time, Gu Changzai had no chance to explain to Xue Xiaoman. In the following time, the two communicated normally at the dinner table, and deliberately did not reveal any clues that made Gu Xianglin find that there was a problem in the relationship between the two. This situation of stalemate continued until the end of the dinner, and there was no sign of breaking the ice.

Gu Chang went to the front desk to settle the general ledger that was divided equally by the three of them. As soon as Gu Changzai left, Gu Xianglin suddenly leaned forward and leaned towards Xue Xiaoman mysteriously.

"Sister Xiaoman." Gu Xianglin called in a low voice.

"What's wrong?" When Xue Xiaoman talked to Gu Xianglin, there was always a hint of her sister's love for her sister in her tone.

"Is there something wrong with you and Lao Gu?" Gu Xianglin tentatively explored. This is the first time she has mentioned personal relationship issues to her boss and eldest sister Xue Xiaoman.

"Old Gu?" The corners of Xue Xiaoman's mouth rose slightly, as if he felt that this title was a little funny.

Gu Xianglin said embarrassedly: "Sister Xiaoman, don't make fun of me, it's obviously 'an old Gu and a little Gu' that you talked about last time." So when the two of us met for the second time, Lao Gu suggested that the two of us call each other that. ”

"It's kind of interesting." Xue Xiaoman smiled faintly.

"Sister Xiaoman, you haven't answered my question yet?" Gu Xianglin asked.

"You," Xue Xiaoman coldly poked Gu Xianglin's head with two fingers, "There is a topic that can't be overcome by studying and researching this gossip in the spare time." ”

Gu Xianglin's eyes widened slightly: "Then Sister Xiaoman's answer is 'it's okay'?" ”

"Uh-huh."

Gu Xianglin said with a little disappointment: "Okay." When I saw the two of you dancing and leaving the dinner together, I thought something was going on between the two of you. ”

"I like to peek at your big pretty eyes, don't you?" Xue Xiaoman scolded with a smile.

"Hey, hey." Gu Xianglin smiled patiently.

Speaking of this step, Xue Xiaoman couldn't hold back the throbbing in his heart, and a sentence was out of the control of his brain, and blurted out: "Linlin, do you have any thoughts about Gu Changzai's men and women?" ”

Gu Xianglin was stunned for a second, and then waved his hand: "Forget it, the age difference between the two of us is a bit big, and he is not the image of Prince Charming in my dream." ”

For some reason, Xue Xiaoman actually felt relieved. A slight sense of guilt quickly rose in her heart, and she felt that it was very unkind for her to use Gu Xianglin's sense of intimacy and trust in her to probe her thoughts like this.
