Chapter 38: Jealousy
Tong Lu raised her hand to cover her violently beating heart, and took a few big breaths before she could barely suppress the bitterness that was circling in her heart.
She couldn't understand her current self, and in the three years she was abroad, she thought that she had already worn out her love for Gu Chuan.
But why do you still feel this way...... The heart, which had obviously been turned to ashes, ignited a little bit of flame, and the inconspicuous heat even swept through her body, rushing into the chaotic mind, burning away the calmness and sanity that she had been proud of.
Narrowing his eyes, Tong Lu raised his head and drank the liquor in his hand. The cold liquid ran down his throat with a burning pain, freezing the heart that was about to move.
With a heavy breath, Tong Lu turned away, ignoring the commotion at the door. This feast has nothing to do with her, nothing more.
"Why is Miss Tong standing here?" Just when Tong Lu was slightly distracted, a clear voice sounded in his ears.
As soon as Tong Lu raised her eyes, she was squinted by the golden suit in front of her.
"Jiang Tesuke?" Tong Lu raised her eyebrows, and her tone was a little suspicious. The man in front of him had a pair of gold-rimmed eyes, but there were no lenses, and his unrestrained eyes stared at people without concealment, but there was a feeling of affection.
"Thank you for remembering me." Jiang Fan raised his glass, the corners of his mouth hooked upward, with a bit of bohemian childishness.
With her eyebrows frowning slightly, Tong Lu turned her head to look at Gu Chuan, who was still surrounded by the crowd,
"Why didn't you follow Gu Chuan?" As a special assistant to the president, it is not a good thing to leave the post without permission......
"My identity today is not Jiang Tezhu," as he spoke, Jiang Fan straightened his tie, coughed twice and cleared his throat before continuing solemnly,
"I'm Jiang Fan, the eldest young master of the Jiang family." I don't know why, when the three words of the eldest young master came out of Jiang Fan's mouth, Tong Lu wanted to laugh inexplicably.
It felt like going back to the Republic of China era. The tip of his tongue touched the palate, Tong Lu waved his hand to the waiter, and served a glass of wine again.
"Then do I want to toast the eldest young master with a glass of wine, after all, compared to the eldest young master, I am just a maid at best." Tong Lu raised his glass and touched Jiang Fan, and said teasingly.
Jiang Fan pursed his lips and secretly glanced at Gu Chuan, who had been paying attention to this side, as if he was being carried by something, and there was a chill behind him.
looked up at Tong Lu, who had a smile on the corner of his mouth, but the smile had never reached the bottom of his eyes, and said in his heart, who is this maid, obviously the ancestor......
"Don't dare to be, don't dare to be," standing behind Gu Chuan, where did he dare to take credit,
"But you can still find me if there is anything, the eldest young master is still a little majestic after all." Protecting the boss lady is the obligation of everyone in Sky Group, and it is also the fastest way to get promoted and raised...... This is the workplace experience that Jiang Fan has summed up since Da Tonglu returned to China.
After all, since Tong Lu came back, Jiang Fan felt that his position as a special assistant had changed unconsciously, before he sorted out the company's materials and took care of Gu Chuan's daily life by the way, but now, it seems to have become, sorting out all the materials of Tong Lu, and voting for black fans by the way...... For Tong Lu, Jiang Fan felt that he could be the president of the fan support club.
"By the way, congratulations on winning Director Zhang's heroine." Seeing that Tong Lu's face was pale, Jiang Fan intimately turned a chair from the side and pushed it to her lap.
"Sit down for a while, you women are really guilty of wearing high heels."
"Thank you." With a wry smile on the corner of Tong Lu's mouth, she straightened her skirt and sat down.
"It's all about being pretty."
"You're already beautiful." Jiang Fan's words did not contain any compliments, although he had seen all kinds of beauties, he had to admit that Tong Lu was the most special one.
She has a charm in her body, which makes people constantly want to get closer, want to explore, and then sink into it, unable to extricate themselves.
"I think so too." Before Jiang Fan's words fell, another deep voice came from behind him.
Suddenly, Jiang Fan's body stiffened, and the smile on his face froze for half a minute. He swore that what he said just now was really just a simple emotion, and there was absolutely no element of flirtation...... Pursing his lips, Jiang Fan soothed his panicked little heart, and his little eyes like asking for help drifted towards Tong Lu one after another, but at this moment, the person who could save his life had no time to take care of him.
A pair of eyes as clear as a spring in the mountains, shining with a breathtaking light in the light, staring closely at the figure standing not far away.
Gu Chuan took two steps before, and his eyebrows were not at all as indifferent as work, and at this moment, with a little tenderness like water, he stared at Tong Lu, as if he was looking at his lover in the next world, and his eyes were full of indulgence.
"You're really beautiful today." At the first glance of entering, Gu Chuan saw the bewitching figure wrapped in the royal blue dress, the soft hair was coiled high, revealing a fair neck, and there were only a few strands of disobedient hair on the side of the ears, which kept shaking with the movements.
Her smile touched his eyes and made him follow unconsciously.
"Mr. Gu is on the side today, and he still has time to look at me." Tong Lu raised her chin, with a bit of arrogance in her eyes, her pride did not allow her to show any bitterness, but as soon as she opened her mouth, she really couldn't hide the sour taste.
Being stunned by Tong Lu, Gu Chuan was stunned, and then laughed. With this smile, Tong Lu felt even more upset, and the one in his hand was paused, if it weren't for the reason online, the wine in the cup would have already appeared on Gu Chuan's face.
"We met at the door." Gu Chuan gave him a look, and Jiang Fan left in acquaintence, although he really wanted to see how the famous shopping mall Hades made amends to his wife, but in comparison, he felt that life was more important.
"She has to come in with me, and I can't refuse, there is still her role in the TV series I just invested." Gu Chuan leaned down and put his head in front of Tong Lu, his cold eyes seemed to flash with a little flattery, like a large animal in his eyes.
Tong Lu took a deep breath, and the thing that had been choking in her heart seemed to disappear all of a sudden, and the dullness disappeared with it.
The white fingertips gently tapped the wine glass in his hand, and a few crisp sounds of ding dong echoed between the two,
"You don't need to explain it to me, I don't care."
"But I want to explain it to you." There was a smile on the corner of Gu Chuan's mouth, and her voice was low and a little hoarse, and it passed into her ears along the air, as if it still had a warm breath.
Gu Chuan's words fell, causing the corners of Tong Lu's mouth to unconsciously curl up, and he was forcefully pressed down.
Tong Lu bit her lip and didn't look at Gu Chuan as if she was angry,
"I'm going back."
"I'll send you." Standing up following Tong Lu's movements, Gu Chuan raised his hand to fasten the button of his blazer.
"You just came ......" Before Tong Lu's words were finished, he was interrupted by Gu Chuan,
"It's okay, it's here for you." A few simple words, but they easily hooked Tong Lu's ears, and a wave of heat instantly rose on his cheeks, dyed a little red.
Gu Chuan said hello to Zhang Ze, and then caught up with Tong Lu's pace, holding a shawl in his hand that he didn't know where to conjure, and gently put it on her shoulder.
"It's cold at night, put it on." A deep voice sounded in the deep night, adding to the magnetism.
Tong Lu nodded, looking at the man beside him, a little strange but very familiar. For three years, she thought that she would forget even Gu Chuan's appearance, but she didn't think that every bit of it with him was hidden deep in her heart, although it was covered with a layer of heavy dust, but it never dissipated in time.
And just tonight, those memories were gently lifted again, gradually regaining their former brilliance, occupying the numb heart.
"Let's get in the car first," Gu Chuan led Tong Lu around the reporter and walked to the side of the street.
"Xiao Hong won't be able to catch up for a while."
"Okay." Glancing at the time on the phone, Tong Lu was not entangled, she gathered her skirt, opened the door and sat down.
Gu Chuan drove very steadily, and the slow night breeze blew in through the window, blowing away a little bit of alcohol. Tong Lu looked out the window, her gaze fixed in the void, and the memories of three years ago came from the depths like a tide, as if they were about to drown her.
Tong Lu three years ago should be completely different from now...... Even Tong Lu herself was a little unsure about this matter, and she couldn't even realize when she started to change and why she became what she is now.
At that time, she still had a little flamboyant youthful atmosphere, youthful, love and hatred were vigorous, as if nothing in this world could stop her wantonness.
And now, she has become a mother of two. Turning his head to look at Gu Chuan, who was looking at the car seriously, Tong Lu felt that this man didn't seem to have changed at all, and he still looked like he remembered.
She wanted to ask how he had been in the past three years, but she was afraid that he would give an answer. opened her mouth, but Tong Lu still closed her mouth.
"What's wrong?" Sensing Tong Lu's desire to speak, Gu Chuan asked with a frown.
"It's okay," Tong Lu's voice sounded faintly,
"I'm just wondering which TV series Long Xue participated in?" Hearing this name again, Gu Chuan couldn't help but laugh.
"Are you jealous?" Gu Chuan's eyes sparkled, and the corners of his mouth raised with a slight ruffian.
With a chuckle, Tong Lu rolled her eyes,
"You dream!"
"I'm just curious." I don't know why, for no reason, the weakness of the heart made Tong Lu suddenly raise her voice, as if she wanted to be loud to prove that this was the truth.
Nodding clearly, Gu Chuan stepped on the brakes lightly, and the body stopped steadily downstairs.
"It's a youth idol drama." Gu Chuan propped his hands on the steering wheel, looking in the direction of Tong Lu with burning eyes, like a tiger and wolf staring at his prey, ready to attack at any time.
Squinting his eyes, Tong Lu glanced at him suspiciously,
"Long Xue is already a movie queen, will she still accept this kind of script that consumes popularity?"
