Chapter 48: Giving Away
The more I saw Chen Pengwei, the more obvious the familiar feeling became. Although she couldn't remember the face when she was a child, the indescribable feeling made her familiar with a little scared. The feeling that she hadn't experienced for ten years made her feel an impulse, desperate to know everything she had been, but afraid of her forgotten past. She doesn't want to change anything about her current life, but she seems to be a little unwilling. I wanted to talk to Xiao Yi, but I couldn't say it, thinking about it, I let out a long sigh.
But listening to Xiaoyi's side, he also sighed softly. Since Chen Pengwei looked for him last time, Xiao Yi has been struggling with whether to tell Lan Qing that they have known each other since childhood. After thinking about it, there was no opening after all. She didn't know Lan Qing's unusual feelings about Chen Pengwei, but she didn't want to interfere with Lan Qing's feelings. Lan Qing's situation is also different from others, so perhaps going with the flow is the best choice for Lan Qing today.
With two sighs, the two couldn't help but glance at each other, and they both laughed, but they didn't ask each other why.
"Let's go," after sitting for a while, Xiao Yi got up and reached out and tugged at her clothes, "The meal is probably about to be delivered." Let's go down too. โ
Lan Qing nodded, and also got up and went downstairs.
Sure enough, the two downstairs were cleaning up the dining table, watching Xiao Yi walk down, Gu Wenhao said with a smile, "You have just the right time, just to ask the two of you to come down for dinner." โ
"They deliver food faster than others." As he spoke, he naturally walked to Gu Wenhao and sat down.
When Lan Qing came down, there was only the seat opposite Xiaoyi and next to Chen Pengwei. Bei Ya bit his lower lip lightly, and just sat opposite him without sitting next to him, and everywhere was shrouded by his aura.
Chen Pengwei looked at the girl sitting next to him, taking a small sip, a small sip, drinking porridge as if he was eating poison, frowning inadvertently, and his eyes darkened.
Fang Zichen told him that Lan Qing's spleen and stomach are not very good, and now that he looks at it, he is afraid that it is quite bad. I want her to eat more, but I'm afraid it will be difficult for her. The words rolled to his lips a few times, but he didn't say anything. I feel a little irritable in my heart, and now the relationship between the two makes him a little weak, too strong to interfere, and the name is not right, if it is like a friend, the two don't seem to be familiar to that extent. If it doesn't matter, don't even think about it.
The four of them ate quietly, only listening to Xiao Yi and Gu Wenhao occasionally chatting. I can't say anything about the work of Gu Wenhao and Chen Pengwei, so I can only talk about the lives of Lan Qing and Xiaoyi these days.
"By the way, Wen Hao, a few days ago, Lan Qing's ID card was stolen while shopping." When she was almost done, Xiao Yi suddenly remembered it.
If she didn't say it, Lan Qing almost forgot about it. Seeing the two men look up at her in unison, she was slightly embarrassed. "I didn't pay much attention when I took the elevator, and it was stolen when I found out."
Chen Pengwei didn't say anything, just glanced at Lan Qing seriously, and there seemed to be some smile in his eyes. Xiao Yi looked at Gu Wenhao's somewhat puzzled eyes, and seemed to ask again, "It was stolen, and then what?" โ
"Lan Qing's passport is being re-processed, and somehow it has not been approved. We went to the police station in the jurisdiction where she lived when she was a child, but they said that they couldn't find Lan Qing's hukou. It shouldn't have been a hukou there back then. So ......" Xiao Yi gestured with her eyes.
Gu Wenhao nodded clearly, Chen Pengwei on the opposite side put the chopsticks, and Gu Wenhao slowly put the chopsticks. took the napkin on the table and wiped his mouth, and looked at the man opposite him who picked up the teacup as if nothing had happened.
"Over there with the police, I don't know anyone, but my eldest brother knows me over there. It's better to find my eldest brother for this matter. As soon as Gu Wenhao's words came out, Xiao Yi was stunned, and he didn't know whether he was angry or laughing. Who is he fooling? Lan Qing didn't know, she still didn't know. To get an ID card, he uses the public security so much, and he "doesn't know anyone", hmph, he doesn't need to do it himself at all. wants to create opportunities for his eldest brother, and the reasons are so good-sounding, and he is not distracted.
Xiao Yi looked at Lan Qing opposite, although she understood this, she couldn't debunk it in person after all. Gu Wenhao was also sure of this, so he dared to say so. But as for how to do this, Lan Qing has to make her own decision.
Listening to Gu Wenhao's words, Lan Qing was stunned, and the words of refusal came to his lips. For some reason, she is always a little afraid to face the man next to her, maybe he is actually too strong, which makes her always feel too oppressive, and it seems that it is because she always has some indescribable weakness and shortness of breath in it, which makes her always have a feeling of wanting to escape. Just as he was about to open his mouth to say no, he met Chen Pengwei's eyes that looked a little deep, and the feeling of weakness came out unconsciously.
When the words came to his lips, they changed from "no, thank you" to "Trouble, Mr. Chen." โ
As soon as the words came out, I was a little annoyed, thought about it, and simply lowered my head and took a spoon to drink porridge again.
But I heard the man next to him say slowly in his ear in a low and metallic voice, which seemed to have a hint of laughter, "Don't bother, I'll take you to do it tomorrow." โ
Lan Qing was a little surprised that she was so fast, but she didn't want to refute it anymore, so she raised her head and smiled a little shyly at Chen Pengwei, and agreed.
Xiao Yi and Gu Wenhao silently looked at the eyebrows and eyes of the two opposites. They looked at each other and smiled, but their mood was a little different.
Seeing that the food was almost over, the four of them got up, Xiao Yi packed up the dishes and chopsticks and put them at the door, waiting for Junyue's people to collect things, and beckoned Gu Wenhao and asked him to go upstairs to help Lan Qing take down the luggage.
Gu Wenhao promised "yes" in his mouth, but he still sat on the sofa like an uncle, turned around and looked at Lan Qing, who had gone upstairs, and sat back safely.
Chen Pengwei on the side listened to Xiao Yi's words, squinted at Gu Wenhao, got up and walked upstairs slowly.
Xiao Yi put away the dishes and chopsticks, and entered the house to see Gu Wenhao still sitting on the sofa, "What are you doing?" Won't you go up and help Lan Qing get the bag? โ
"Tsk, I don't have the eyesight to see it, Lan Qing's matter, how can I interfere now." As he spoke, he shook his head exaggeratedly.
Xiao Yi laughed, "I know, but I can't just order Brother Chen in the middle of winter." โ
Gu Wenhao raised his eyebrows when he heard this, but he didn't speak again, he remembered that Xiao Yi didn't treat Chen Pengwei in Lan Qing's matter before.
Shui Lanqing went upstairs and looked at the room again to check if anything had fallen. turned around and picked up the suitcase, but saw Chen Pengwei knocking on the open door, and Shi Shiran had already walked in.
โยทยทยทโ So conscious, Shui Lanqing opened her mouth, a little surprised, and didn't know what to say.
"I'll come up and help you carry the suitcase." As he spoke, he naturally walked over and put his hand on the handle of the suitcase. Looking at the girl beside her who was a little at a loss, she sighed slightly, once, how could she be at a loss in front of herself, even if the two later established a relationship, she would only be occasionally shy, but she would not have such a strange emotion as embarrassment and helplessness.
"When do you want to go?" The topic was raised, and he picked up the box and walked towards the staircase.
"I want to leave now. It's not early, and they're both tired. They can both have a good rest. After speaking, Shui Lanqing gradually relaxed. followed Chen Pengwei and slowly went downstairs.
"Where do you live now?"
"I live in the second ring road, and there is a community called Huilan Garden."
"That's right, I'll send you back in a moment."
"Don't bother, I'll just call a taxi. It's a long way from there. โ
As he spoke, the two had already gone down to the hall on the first floor, Shui Lanqing still wanted to refuse, but Chen Pengwei put down his luggage and turned to look at the girl who was a head shorter than him, "I'll send you, so that Xiaoyi and Wen Hao can rest assured." The voice was a little loud, so that the two people sitting in the hall couldn't help but look over. Then, he lowered his voice, "And, as it happens, I've been living in Huilan Garden recently. After speaking, without waiting for Shui Lanqing to react, she turned around and lifted the suitcase again and put it at the gate.
"You can go now, sit down for a while." Seeing that Shui Lanqing had changed her clothes, Du Yunyi hurriedly walked over, "What's the hurry, I just finished eating." โ
Xiao Yi's voice made Shui Lanqing come back to her senses, "Let's go, it's almost five o'clock now, and it's almost seven o'clock when I go back, and it's going to be dark." โ
Xiao calculated the time, and it was about the same, so he didn't keep anyone anymore. "Then how do you go back, I asked Wen Hao to find someone to send you back?" The two of them talked and walked to the door.
"I'm going to the city too, so I'll drop her off." Chen Pengwei's words were said to Du Yunyi, which was to hear Du Yunyi's question.
Seeing Xiao Yi's stunned space, Shui Lanqing hurriedly stepped forward, "I said no, Xiao Yi, you just call me a car, and you don't have to trouble Wen Hao." It's too far to come back and forth. As he spoke, he shook his head at Xiaoyi.
Du Yunyi looked at Gu Wenhao who came over, she was a little conflicted, she still didn't know whether to create some opportunities for the two of them or respect Shui Lanqing's wishes.
"Then let the eldest brother run. Lan Qing is a little girl, and she is not familiar with the capital, so it is too dangerous to call a car. Song Tingkai has something to do, or let him run. "Song Tingkai is Gu Wenhao's driver. It's just that I don't know if it's really something or "something's wrong".
In the end, the balance in his heart was in favor of Lan Qing's safety, Du Yunyi nodded, and persuaded Shui Lanqing, "Then let Brother Chen send you, so that I can rest assured." You don't know that online car-hailing is very chaotic in China now, there have been several news, don't call it yourself, call a regular taxi if you have something, or call me, and I will accompany you. โ
"Okay, don't worry, I won't go out. I'll tell you when I go out. This is also the habit of the two in the United States at that time, for their own safety, they will always let each other know where they are going when they go out.
"Okay, then call at that time. Trouble Brother Chen. โ
Chen Pengwei's car was parked in the yard, watching Shui Lanqing sit in the co-pilot, Chen Pengwei put the suitcase into the trunk, and raised his hand at Gu Wenhao, "Okay, let's go in, I'm leaving." โ
Gu Wenhao stood behind Du Yunyi with a smile, waved his hand, and said with something in his words, "Big brother, let's go back and have a good rest." โ
Watching Chen Pengwei close the car door, he didn't know if he heard his words, and left without hesitation. Gu Wenhao hugged Du Yunyi, chuckled twice, and turned around and entered the house.
