After hearing Gong Jiuqing's words, Mo Ran was a little helpless, she said, "Today is your birthday, why are you giving me roses?" I should have given you a gift. ”

Gong Jiuqing stretched out his hand and gently plucked a petal, kneaded it between his fingers, and then said softly: "No one stipulates that you must receive gifts on your birthday, right?" I want to see your smile, and your smile is my best gift, so I'm giving you roses. ”

"You're really ......" Mo Ran sighed helplessly, and then she raised a smile and said a little unnaturally: "Okay?" You want a smile. ”

Gong Jiuqing laughed lowly, he looked at Mo Ran quietly with his beautiful eyes, and then said, "Well, this is my best gift today." ”

"You're so easy to satisfy, Mr. Gong." Mo Ran said.

Gong Jiuqing raised his eyebrows, and after he approached Mo Ran, he whispered: "No, in fact, I'm not satisfied, I still want a lot, but I know that I can't eat hot tofu in a hurry, so I can only take my time?" ”

Mo Ran always felt that Gong Jiuqing had something to say, but she wasn't sure what Gong Jiuqing wanted to say, so she didn't respond to him, just handed the rose in her arms to Gong Jiuqing, and then said: "Since you have received my smile, then please take your roses back, I really don't have a place to put them here." ”

Gong Jiuqing paused for a moment, because he really hadn't thought about this problem, and glanced at Mo Ran's office, which could be said to be a little empty, Gong Jiuqing frowned and said, "How does Gu Mou usually take care of you?" Why don't you even have a vase in your office? ”

Inexplicably, Mo Ran just didn't want to hear others say that Gu Mou was even a little bad, so she subconsciously said: "I don't need a vase as an ornament, so I don't have it." ”

After finishing speaking, she also froze herself, feeling sluggish for her behavior of subconsciously speaking for Gu Mou.

But Gong Jiuqing didn't understand the meaning of Mo Ran's words, so he said, "Why don't you wait until I buy you a vase later?" ”

Mo Ran was even more helpless, she said: "I really don't need it, it's obviously your birthday, why do you always want to buy me something?" It's your birthday. ”

Gong Jiuqing smiled and didn't say anything.

Because Gong Jiuqing's work in the Gu Group is still very important after all, when he learned that he had a birthday, many people celebrated him one after another, and directly made an appointment with a restaurant near the company, planning to hold a birthday party for Gong Jiuqing.

Mo Ran didn't like this kind of occasion very much, so she didn't plan to go to the party, but took advantage of the lunch break to buy an expensive watch for Gong Jiuqing, and then refused the invitation of her colleague.

But Gong Jiuqing found Mo Ran before everyone was ready to leave, he had the watch Mo Ran gave him in his hand, on this day, Mo Ran remembered that Gong Jiuqing received a lot of gifts, there were people who flattered him, there were people who had a crush on him, and they gave a gift

More expensive than the other, one more suitable for Gong Jiuqing than the other, but Gong Jiuqing brought the watch given to him by Mo Ran alone.

Mo Ran looked at Gong Jiuqing in front of him and asked, "What's wrong?" ”

Gong Jiuqing pursed his lips, his expression was a little lost, like an abandoned puppy, Gong Jiuqing asked, "Mo Ran, why don't you come to the birthday party they held for me?" ”

Originally, Mo Ran wanted to say the reason directly, but when he saw Gong Jiuqing's somewhat lost eyes, he was heartbroken and said, "I'll go." ”

So, ten minutes later, Mo Ran sat next to Gong Jiuqing, watching the other people constantly pleasing Gong Jiuqing, she felt a little bored, she didn't like to drink, so she took herself a bottle of fruit wine and drank it in small cups.

Gong Jiuqing is completely different in front of outsiders than in front of Mo Ran, he is not very enthusiastic in front of outsiders, he always looks a little cold about everything, and even the smile on the corner of his mouth is only a small arc, only when he sees Mo Ran choking because of drinking fruit wine, he will show a helpless look, take out a paper and gently wipe the corners of Mo Ran's lips.

"Don't drink fruit wine all the time, it's not good for your stomach, there are some soft pastries here, you can eat a little." Gong Jiuqing whispered in Mo Ran's ear.

Mo Ran nodded, and as soon as he opened his mouth, he felt that Gong Jiuqing had stuffed something into his mouth, and the faint orange fragrance spread in his mouth, and the soft texture was also very attractive.

"Orange cake." Gong Jiuqing smiled faintly, and then said, "You like to eat oranges, right?" I see the orange flavor you take in your fruit wine. ”

Mo Ran nodded, and then she silently swallowed the small cake in her mouth before she spoke, "Thank you." ”

Gong Jiuqing touched the cup with others, and with a little indifference between his eyebrows, he nodded lightly at Mo Ran.

Others saw that Gong Jiuqing was so special to Mo Ran, and they also had their own little calculations in their hearts.

The woman next to Mo Ran also brought Mo Ran a small apple-flavored cake, and then said, "Mo Ran, do you remember me?" When you came to print the document the day before yesterday, you helped me pick up the scattered copies. ”

There was indeed such a thing, so Mo Ran nodded and said, "Remember." ”

"Thank you so much." The woman smiled at Mo Ran, and then said, "I just heard Mr. Gong say that you have a bad stomach, so do you want me to order a yogurt for you?" I remember the yogurt in this shop was delicious. ”

Mo Ran was still a little uncomfortable in the face of other people's kindness, and after she almost helplessly rejected the woman's behavior, she hurriedly said: "Thank you, but I'm a little lactose intolerant, I'll just drink some fruit wine." ”

The woman didn't reluctantly talk to Mo Ran, but she chatted with Mo Ran without a match, and she didn't know why, so she talked about Helen.

Mo Ran wanted to avoid this topic very much, but at this time, the woman next to him took a sip of beer

was a little drunk, and she said: "Helen, this woman, I have to say, is really like a rose, ruthless and beautiful. ”

Mo Ran didn't speak, thinking in her heart about how she could divert the topic, but the woman said: "I don't know how her boyfriend feels when he sees her like this!" ”

Boyfriend?

Mo Ran paused for a moment, she looked at the already drunk woman beside her, and asked, "Boyfriend?" Helen She ...... Do you have a boyfriend? ”

"Yes." The woman's face was flushed, she smiled at Mo Ran, and then said: "But few people know about this matter, because Helen is hiding it, Gu Mou is hiding it, and many people who know about it are hiding it." ”

Mo Ran felt her heart beat a little faster, she bit her lip, and then asked, "What are you hiding?" ”

"Hide Helen's boyfriend." The woman looked down at the beer in her cup and said, "Hide his ...... Death. ”

"Smack!"

The cup in Mo Ran's hand fell directly on the table, making a loud noise, but because the music here was really noisy, not many people noticed Mo Ran's side, they just kept laughing, and they seemed to be chatting very happily.

After Gong Jiuqing heard the sound, she hurriedly turned her head to look at Mo Ran, frowned and asked with concern, "What's wrong?" Where did it hurt? ”

"No, no." Mo Ran hurriedly straightened the cup, and then said, "I accidentally touched it, it didn't hurt anything, and I drank the fruit wine in the cup." ”

After glancing at Mo Ran and making sure that she really had no problem, Gong Jiuqing had to turn her head to deal with those people again.

And after Mo Ran heard the words of the woman beside him, he was in a state of shock.

Helen used to have a boyfriend, and this boyfriend of hers was ...... Passed away?

Mo Ran felt that she needed to figure something out, so she nudged the woman and asked, "Are you okay?" ”

"Okay, I'll be fine." The woman took another sip of wine, and then said, "Where did you just say?" Oh, Helen's boyfriend, although he has just entered the company, but he has a bright future, if it weren't for the accident during the field trip, it is estimated that he would have soared by now, right? It's a pity...... Hehe......"

After Mo Ran was silent for a while, he heard the woman say again, "What happened? Helen cried to death at the funeral, and after a while...... actually hooked up with Gu Mou? Scold...... Good means, good intentions, why do I feel like I'm watching a palace fight? ”

Mo Ran didn't know that Helen had a boyfriend, but what if she knew? The child in Helen's womb is also destined to be inseparable from Gu Mou.

When Mo Ran's mood was in shock and loss, she suddenly received a message on WeChat, which turned out to be sent by Gu Mou.

Mo Ran paused for a moment, and hurriedly opened it to take a look

, and found that there was only a short sentence inside: "I'm waiting for you outside of time." ”

"Time" is the name of the restaurant where Mo Ran is now, after she saw this information, she was shocked, and subconsciously looked out of the window, sure enough, a somewhat familiar car was parked outside, and the main driver's seat was empty.

After Mo Ran briefly explained the situation to Gong Jiuqing, she walked out under Gong Jiuqing's somewhat complicated gaze, and when she came to the door of the store, she saw the tall man at a glance.
