Waiter took them to a windowside location, close to the hotel view elevator, which was a corner and relatively quiet. After sitting down, Tan Man found that after taking off his coat, Qiao Sen was wearing a black suit today, and under the white shirt, the whole person was full of energy, and he was used to seeing his white coat, so formal dress, but a little uncomfortable.

"It turns out that you came prepared, dressed so handsomely, too scheming, and didn't say it in advance, it's rare for me to come to such a high-end place once, and let me dress up." Tan Man pretended to complain.

Qiao Sen smiled: "If you don't dress up, you're already very eye-catching, and if you dress up again, you won't give other girls a way to live." ”

Just as he wanted to reply, the mobile phone on the table rang, and it was Qiao Ning who called.

"Manman, have you seen my brother?" Qiao Ning's voice today was not like usual, and the volume was several blocks lower.

"Well, we're there, where are you?"

"Tell my brother, I can't go."

"Why?" Vine frowned.

"It's a car accident!"

"What?!" The vines were shocked.

"Shhhh

"Didn't you hit it?"

Qiao Ning's voice was a little weak: "Yes, the driver who carried me was a little injured, although it was not a big deal, but I think I should accompany him to the hospital, but don't tell my brother, it will save him from worrying, and my mother will make a fuss again, but it's annoying." ”

Tan Man wanted to speak and stopped.

"You told him that my colleague has something to do temporarily, and I have to work on duty, that's it, I won't tell you now, the traffic police are here, bye!"

The "Hey ......" call has been hung up.

Qiao Sen asked, "What's wrong with that guy Qiao Ning?" ”

"She, she said she couldn't come, she had to go to work!" Tan Man was perfunctory, and Qiao Sen didn't ask any more.

"This girl is always like this, release pigeons, forget it, then let's order."

Without Qiao Ning, the atmosphere of the meal became less natural.

After ordering the meal, she took out the gift from her bag, put it on the table and pushed it in front of him: "Happy birthday!" Not something particularly valuable, I hope you like it. ”

Qiao Sen's eyes lit up, he didn't expect Tan Man to bring him a gift.

"Whatever you send, I'll love it."

When Tan Man heard this, she was a little embarrassed, and instinctively looked away, but just as she skipped the entrance of the Western restaurant, the slender and upright figure made her stunned.

It was Gu Mochen who walked in with long legs from the entrance!

Isn't it, you can meet in this kind of place?

Tan Man was inexplicably weak-hearted, and subconsciously lowered his head, not wanting to be discovered.

"Can I open it and take a look?" Jossen didn't notice her strangeness and asked.

"Of course." She replied with her head bowed.

"Very delicate pen, thank you, vine!" Jossen's tone was full of surprise.

Tan Man raised her head again, but she was keenly aware of a sharp glimmer of eyes, and when she was thinking about whether to nod at him or get up to say hello, the other party looked away, and after saying something to one of the men next to her, she turned around and walked straight towards her.

Gu Mochen stood a meter away from her, his hands in his trouser pockets, looking straight at her.

Looking at each other, Tan Man's heart trembled.

"What a coincidence, you're here for dinner too?!"

Gu Mochen's tone was very flat, and he couldn't see anything unusual, but Tan Man still hung up his heart, stood up and looked at him with a restrained expression.

Qiao Sen frowned, looked at the man who was intimately screaming vines, he put down the pen in his hand, and slowly got up.

Gu Mochen glanced at the movements in his hands.

It turned out that last night her cat was at the coffee table, studying her own pen,

It turned out that she was asking for leave to have dinner with this man.

After Gu Mochen suddenly realized, his face sank a little unconsciously.

"Vine, who is this?" Johnson asked.

Tan Man came back to his senses: "This is Gu Mochen, Lawyer Gu." ”

After speaking, she looked at Gu Mochen's eyes, and there was a trace of apprehension: "Eh, this is the doctor of the city doctor, called Qiao Sen." ”

Gu Mochen turned his head to look at Qiao Sen, his expression was a little subtle, but he politely stretched out his hand first: "Hello, Doctor Qiao." ”

When Qiao Sen reached out to shake it back, there was a hint of defense in his eyes: "Hello, Lawyer Gu." ”

The style of painting was a little discordant, and Tan Man found a topic: "Lawyer Gu, I didn't expect you to be here today." ”

Gu Mochen moved his gaze back to her: "Have a meal with the customer, see you here, come over and take a look, didn't bother you?" ”

Her head shook like a rattle: "How come! ”

Gu Mochen smiled lightly: "That's good, you use it slowly, I won't bother, Doctor Qiao, see you soon!" ”

When Tan Man thought that Gu Mochen was finally leaving, and was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the magnetic deep voice sounded again.

"Oh, by the way, Dr. Joe, this pen, it's really good!"

The corners of Tan Man's eyes twitched.

On the other end, Qiao Sen, relying on the man's intuition, instantly erected a defensive shield against this man named Gu Mochen.

After Gu Mochen left, Qiao Sen's face was a little solemn, and he was silent for a moment, but he still couldn't help but ask.

"Manman, when did you meet a lawyer?"

"I'm his brother's counsellor, and he's my employer."

At this time, the waiter served the food, which happened to interrupt her.

After the dishes were served, Qiao Sen asked again: "Psychological counselor?" Are you looking for a part-time job? ”

She nodded: "It's a coincidence, he is a friend of my university professor, and the professor asked me for help, and Lawyer Gu's younger brother has autism, so let me try to communicate with him, it was a six-year-old child, fortunately, the symptoms were not too serious, and now he is much better." ”

"So, you're going to his house every day?"

Tan Man glanced at him, lowered his eyes, and nodded slightly.

Qiao Sen's face sank a little, and he couldn't tell whether he was angry or helpless: "Manman, are you short of money?" ”

"Of course not!" She explained, "It's just that the professor's kindness is hard to resist, after all, when I was in college, she took good care of me." ”

In fact, it's okay to refuse, but at the beginning, she lost to the temptation of a monthly salary of 20,000 yuan, and now, it is not money that tempts her, but Xiaobei's sense of accomplishment in his slow recovery, and ...... Gu Mochen.

A meal was affected a lot by this episode, Tan Man didn't know how to eat in this luxurious hotel restaurant, and finally survived until the end of the meal, and Qiao Sen drove her back.

Sitting in Qiao Sen's co-pilot, the car drove on the same road, and the surrounding was the same prosperous night scene, but she was inexplicably tired and lost.

She nestled in her seat, like a dying kitten, not wanting to say a word.

If it wasn't for dinner with Qiao Sen tonight, at this time, she should have sat in Gu Mochen's co-pilot, chattering with him about Xiaobei's progress along the way, or chatting with him vividly and joyfully, just like in the past two months, when he sent himself home rain or shine, the instinctive happiness and desire to stay by Gu Mochen's side is an emotion that can never be forced out of Qiao Sen, who has known him for so many years.

From which day did she start, the short half hour she spent alone with Gu Mochen turned out to be the most exciting expectation for her every day.

At this moment, she finally understood, and probably this was the reason why she would never be able to promise Jossen.

……

When she got home, Tan Man took a shower and sat on the bed, holding her mobile phone and clicking on Gu Mochen's contact screen, tonight his sharp eyes and polite tone lingered in her mind, and she almost couldn't help but dial it out, but after connecting, what do you want to say, explain, explain the pen or Qiao Sen, but in case people don't pay attention to it at all.

After thinking about it, she finally held back and looked up to the sky and sighed.

Maybe for Gu Mochen, she is just Xiaobei's psychological counselor, don't take yourself too seriously, maybe people will forget to meet tonight when they turn around.

At this time, the phone rang suddenly, and she still subconsciously looked forward to it, and it turned out to be Qiao Ning.

"Vines!"

"Xiao Ning, how are you doing over there?"

"It's all settled, I just got back to my parents' house. Manman, my brother doesn't look as happy as he imagined, what's wrong with you? ”

"We're fine, your brother invited you to eat at Four Seasons tonight, you didn't come, it's a big loss." Manman pretended to be relaxed and wanted to divert the topic.

"Don't lie to me, he's hiding on the balcony and smoking, and he looks very lonely."

Manman didn't want to make excuses anymore, the relationship between her and Qiao Ning was originally a very frank and close good friend.

"Qiao Ning, I can't compromise, and I can't convince myself, do you remember that I asked you what it was like to meet the right person."

Qiao Ning had already guessed that Vine had probably rejected his poor brother ruthlessly again, on his birthday.

"You said that you would be frustrated and sad because of the other party's words, and you would be happy because of his actions, I seem to have experienced this feeling, but that person is not Qiao Sen."

Qiao Ning was stunned on the other end of the phone for a moment, and asked faintly, "Manman, have you met someone you like?!" ”

When Qiao Ning asked this sentence nakedly, even she didn't dare to admit it, Tan Man's heart suddenly flashed with panic, this is a field she has never stepped into, she is at a loss but she is looking forward to it.

She wasn't sure if she liked Gu Mochen,

But she was sure that she didn't like Jossen.

"I don't want Jyossen to toss himself for me anymore."

“…… Are you sure this isn't an excuse you made up to prevaricate Jossen? ”

Manman chuckled, Qiao Ning could always think of the plot very exaggeratedly: "No! ”

"Who is he?" Qiao Ning asked curiously, "Who is the man who can make you depressed, sad, and happy?" Do I know each other? ”

Tan Man shook his head: "I don't know, even I can't fully know and understand him, but the kind of blindness and impulsiveness you said can be found in him, I will want to see him, want to stay with him, fear that he will misunderstand, and hope that he will be happy." ”

"The teacher in your school?!" Qiao Ning always grasped the identity of the other party and did not let go.

"No, don't ask, okay?"

"No, tell me!"

Manman hesitated for a moment, but still confessed: "It's the lawyer who asked me to work part-time." ”

"What?" Qiao Ning suddenly exclaimed and said seriously, "Tan Man, how can you like a married man?!" By doing this, you're destroying someone else's family! ”

Tan Man was stunned for a moment, crying and laughing, so she roughly described Gu Mochen's situation, and Qiao Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
