Chapter 232: Estrangement
"Call your son and ask him to come back."
Bai Qiutong was very reluctant, he closed his eyes and didn't even want to say anything more to Cheng Qian.
Cheng Qian sneered and threatened: "Do you think you are qualified to reject me now?" I can poke out that incident anytime and anywhere, and then your reputation and even the entire palace family will be ruined and become a laughing stock. ”
"You're ......!"
Bai Qiutong didn't dare to gamble with such a big chip.
So after the stalemate, I had to take over the phone.
……
As soon as Gong Bai also came back, Cheng Qian stood at the door with a smile on his face to greet him, and the fragrant meal had already been prepared on the table.
Said very wisely.
"Bai Yi, you haven't been back for a long time. Auntie always told me that I miss you, so put down your bag and wash your hands and eat. ”
"The company is busy......
was warmly entertained, and Gong Bai was at a loss.
As soon as he took a pair of chopsticks to eat, he saw Cheng Qian's eyes shining with anticipation looking at him.
Cheng Qian smiled and grabbed Bai Qiutong's arm.
Put on a sweet smile.
"Is it delicious? This is what my aunt taught me to make, does it taste like she did? ”
I can't resist the kindness of Cheng Qian.
After tasting it, Gong Bai casually praised it: "It's good."
Cheng Qian's eyes flashed with joy, and her expression was both innocent and cute, very deceptive: "That's great!" Actually, thanks to my aunt for teaching me~"
Bai Qiutong barely complied with the sentence next to him, and his interest was not high: "Cheng Qian is also very smart." I was a little tired, so I went upstairs to rest. Eat yourselves. ”
Cheng Qian noticed Gong Bai's worried gaze, the light in his eyes was not obviously dimmed, and then he came out of the circle again, and said matter-of-factly.
"It's probably like this when you just recover, and you can't slow down for a while. I accompanied my aunt to relax and chat, maybe it could make her mood better. ”
This made Gong Bai even more unhappy.
I also feel guilty about avoiding going home.
"Then I'll trouble you, after all, my mother has such a good relationship with you now, and she is willing to be close to you."
Cheng Qian's smile was like a flower, and she couldn't see the haze and calculation underneath at all.
It's like remembering something.
took a handbag under the coffee table, and gave it to Gong Baiyi with a characteristic shyness, afraid that he would refuse and deliberately said: "This is what she showed you last time I went to the mall with my aunt, and I think it suits you very well." We'll buy it for you. ”
Inside was a luxurious and delicate dark blue suit.
Hearing that it was his mother's heart, Gong Bai naturally had no way to refuse and took it.
"Thanks, I like it."
Cheng Qian looked very happy.
He also instigated Gong Bai to try it on to see if it fits.
Gong Bai didn't want to wipe her face, so she put it on casually, and Cheng Qian's eyes showed a bright light of appreciation.
"It's really for you."
As he spoke, Cheng Qian tiptoed close to Gong Baiyi, deliberately creating that ambiguous atmosphere, and before Gong Baiyi could react, an extra tie appeared on his suit, and the previous one was also pulled by Cheng Qian casually and stuffed into his hand.
Cheng Qian smiled and tied the tie to help Gong Bai tie.
"It's a better match."
Gong Bai also subconsciously took two steps back, widening the distance between each other.
Ignoring the disappointment in Cheng Qian's eyes, she tore off her tie at will and handed it back to her.
"Put it away first, I'll go up and see Mom."
Cheng Qian's gaze was a little resentful, but being able to win the change in Gong Baiyi's attitude was considered a preliminary achievement of the goal.
His eyes inadvertently fell on the computer that Gong Bai had not had time to turn off on the desktop, and walked over step by step with high heels.
DiDi ......
Suddenly, a new email pops up on the computer screen.
Cheng Qian glanced at the closed door above, and expected that Bai Qiutong would not dare to say anything, and it would be impossible for Gong Bai to come down in a while.
I tapped the mouse twice.
Cheng Qian slid the accepted document, and her expression gradually became ugly.
This is clearly a new project that Gong Bai is also secretly helping Su Wen!
She also thought that the previous incident would make Gong Bai also completely give up on Su Wen, but she didn't expect this flame to burn vigorously in a place where she couldn't see it.
How could she possibly allow such a thing to happen?!
Cheng Qian suppressed the anger in her heart, restored the email to an unread state, and held her arms in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, her expression dyed with a cold faint light, thinking about countermeasures.
After going back, Cheng Qian immediately went to check the information about Lu's new project, and sorted it out overnight and handed it over to Gong Boyuan early the next morning.
Said deliberately.
"Uncle, these are some of the new projects I've collected during this time. I think Emgrand also needs to add fresh blood often to ensure its long-term prosperity. ”
He added: "I heard that Coco Su is also in contact with these projects, but she can't be preempted by that kind of company."
Gong Boyuan casually flipped through the information.
Hearing that Lu Shi also had intentions, he didn't think much about it, so he directly agreed.
"Just do it, I'll definitely give you relaxed permissions, and you can bring up whatever you need."
Cheng Qian quickly covered up her pride.
He shook the full medicine bottle in his hand again, and gently tapped on his table under Gong Boyuan's longing gaze, making a crisp sound.
The seemingly sweet and harmless voice induces the other party to consciously walk into the abyss step by step.
"You should have finished taking your medicine last time, I brought it to you this time."
Gong Boyuan didn't care about his steadiness and couldn't wait to take it.
I couldn't help but ask.
"I seem to be getting more and more inseparable from this medicine, won't there be any harm in taking it for a long time?"
Cheng Qian's smile is still gentle and decent, without the slightest flaw.
Specifically to retreat as advance.
"This is the medicine I brought to you from abroad, it is very expensive, and there is no price in the market. Don't you feel more energetic after taking it? If you are afraid of something, you can stop using it at any time. ”
"Don't, don't."
How could Gong Boyuan leave this medicine now, and immediately hugged him tightly.
The slightest doubt just now has completely disappeared.
"It's okay, I trust you."
Cheng Qian's smile became brighter, her eyes became darker, and she bowed slightly: "Then I'll go out first...... You take it slowly. ”
Late at night.
The white, bloodstained face kept getting closer...... Speaking in a poignant voice of endless resentment.
"Don't come here!"
Bai Qiutong woke up suddenly, clutching his chest and panting, and the phantoms in front of him gradually disappeared.
The sheets were soaked with cold sweat.
She doesn't know how many times she has had such nightmares......
Each time it only gets more terrifying.
She couldn't sleep anymore, so she looked up some charity projects on the Internet.
There are left-behind children, and there are also those who help public welfare undertakings.
The strong light from those colorful pages disturbed Bai Qiutong's headache even more, and those unbearable memories always jumped out inadvertently, staining her eyes blood-red.
Clicking the donate button slightly eased the guilt that was about to swallow her up.
Turning on the faint lamp again, in the silent night, only the sound of the Buddhist scriptures being rustled and turned over next to it, Bai Qiutong held an ink pen, and copied the cumbersome scriptures one by one with his clothes prostrate.
Until the first rays of morning light shine in from the outside.
Through the window, shallow spots of light reflected off the paper.
Only then did Bai Qiutong put down the pen and buried it on the table, making a whimpering sound that was extremely controlled.
The other side.
The grand dinner slowly kicked off with a day of preparation.
Many of the celebrities who were invited to come were dressed brightly and competed on the red carpet, eager to show as much as possible to attract attention.
The banquet was held by the sea, dotted with small star lanterns, and the brilliant lights illuminated a corner of the seaside, and everything in the plan was romantic.
But the biting coldness of the sea breeze was not calculated in advance.
Lu Qingmo muttered whether the designer's brain had entered the seawater, and at the same time she was wearing a short skirt dress that showed her good figure, the thin fabric could make people more sexy and attractive, and it could also make people easily freeze to death, and she was shivering all over.
But you have to keep a decent and sweet smile to meet the eyes and cameras projected from all directions.
At this time, the sea breeze blew more and more violently.
You can hear the sound of the wind grinding in the air, whirring.
Lu Qingmo's hands and feet were cold, her expression became more and more stiff, and even her face began to turn pale, and she had a chill attack.
I was so cold that I couldn't even stand on my feet.
Even his breathing became rapid...... I almost couldn't hold it anymore.
At this time, someone from behind directly wrapped a coat with body temperature on Lu Qingmo's body, which was tantamount to lighting a bonfire in the ice and snow, gradually melting the overwhelming cold.
Lu Qingmo turned her head to look and saw Min Yu's anxious expression.
"Who arranged the outfit for you? You're all frozen, or I'll take off this dress for you. ”
watched Min Yu tugging at his only shirt.
Lu Qingmo couldn't laugh or cry.
But he still maintained a very cold and unapproachable attitude, but the cold and arrogant expression was a little weak under the pale and tired rendering.
"No...... Don't go around here. Thank you for your clothes, I'll find someone to send them to you when the time comes. ”
Min Yu left obediently, but after a while, he ran over again, still holding a cup of hot water in his hand.
The hot water rose up and the lingering mist dispelled the coolness around him little by little, and in the haze, Lu Qingmo raised his eyes to see Min Yu's sincere eyes.
The tone was not as cold as before.
It's a little more indescribable.
"This ...... Where did you get that? ”
It's full of drinks and champagne, and there shouldn't be hot water.
Min Yu's handsome and uninhibited face was rarely dyed with a reddish, but fortunately it was not so obvious under the swaying light.
Scratched his hair.
"Actually, I knew that I was afraid that you would freeze after holding a banquet here, so I brought a thermos cup in advance, but I didn't expect it to come in handy."
Lu Qingmo didn't expect Min Yu to be so concerned.
This is completely inconsistent with his seemingly prodigal appearance.
In addition to being moved, I still couldn't let go of the habit of arrogant people to push people out, and couldn't help but joke: "It is estimated that I have captured the hearts of many girls with this trick, which is quite clever." Thank you for the hot water~ Go and get busy with you. ”
Min Yu didn't say a word, and followed behind Lu Qingmo.
It's like a little tail, very well-behaved.
It attracted a lot of curious eyes.
Lu Qingmo stopped helplessly.
"What are you doing with me?"
Min Yu said very frankly.
"I'm not busy, I'm here to take care of you."
Lu Qingmo confronted him with his hands on his waist, his expression changed a little in addition to indifference, and he asked mercilessly.
"And what if I want to drive you away?"
Min Yu has an excellent mentality, and he will be stalked when he is rejected.
"Then I'll not leave with a dead face. Besides, I still have to take care of you, how can I leave you here alone. ”
Lu Qingmo laughed angrily, looking at the person, Min Yu was looking at her with innocent eyes, it was rare to have such clean and clear eyes in this environment.
"Who gave you this sense of responsibility?"
Min Yu didn't think about it, so he said: "At the beginning, you crashed into my box, I have already defaulted to be responsible for you, and I am also waiting for you to be responsible for my heartbeat."
Lu Qingmo commented mercilessly and spicily.
"Flim Flam."
But he never resisted Min Yu's approach again.
Instead, she was wrapped in his warmth and delicacy, escaping the long night that would have only brought her a terrible cold.
The door in my heart, which was closed to others, seemed to reveal a very small crack.
