25 Do you want her to be Xiao Wan's stand-in?
Because Gu Shanshan was going to leave early tomorrow morning, Gu Nianbin deliberately pushed the entertainment and rushed home for dinner, but he didn't expect to see Xia Xiaowan sitting on the sofa talking and laughing with Fang Yaru as soon as he entered the door.
Seeing him come in, Xia Xiaowan stood up generously and greeted: "Hello Mr. Gu." ”
Gu Nianbin nodded at her, "Hello Miss Xia." ”
"Why are you so raw, just call your name," Fang Yaru dragged Gu Nianbin over to sit: "You came back just in time, chat with Xiaowan, I'll go to the kitchen to see if the dishes are ready." ”
Waiting for Fang Yaru to come out of the hall, Xia Xiaowan looked at Gu Nianbin and smiled: "Is it okay?" ”
"What?" Gu Nianbin raised his eyebrows slightly, then reacted, and said very gentlemanly: "Of course you can, the name is just a symbol, you can call it whatever you want." ”
"But my name ......" Xia Xiaowan thought for a while and said, "If you mind, it's still ......"
"It's okay," Gu Nianbin said, "There are many people with the same name and surname in this world, I don't mind." ”
"Mr. Gu is an open-minded person."
"Is it still called Mr. Gu?"
Xia Xiaowan laughed: "I forgot about it." ”
Gu Nianbin looked at her and smiled, always maintained a polite look, and said, "I didn't expect my mother to invite you here." ”
"I didn't expect it either," Xia Xiaowan pursed her lips, her eyebrows raised lightly, showing a bit of playfulness: "I was stunned when I received a call from my aunt, but I thought that this was a good opportunity to get close to you, so I came." ”
She said it so bluntly, which made Gu Nianbin laugh, his voice was low and mellow, full of magnetism, and rushed into Xia Xiaowan's heart like an electric current. The man sitting opposite him, no matter which angle he looked at, looked impeccable, Yushu Zhilan was as noble as he was, and he exuded the charm of a mature man. As the most popular diamond king in G City, he really deserves his name.
was about to say something more, when they suddenly heard a sound from upstairs, and the two of them looked up together, but it was Gu Shanshan standing on the second floor and squeezing her eyebrows at Gu Nianbin.
"You come down," Gu Nianbin raised his voice and called out to Gu Shanshan.
Gu Shanshan was silent, but beckoned him to go up, Gu Nianbin had to smile apologetically at Xia Xiaowan, got up and went upstairs.
Gu Shanshan stood at the top of the stairs, waited for Gu Nianbin to come up, dragged him to the corner two steps, and said softly: "Brother, I only learned today that this Miss Xia not only has the same name as Xiao Wan, but also looks similar, is this too much of a coincidence." ”
Gu Nianbin took off her hand: "A coincidence is a coincidence, what are you making such a fuss about?" ”
Gu Shanshan's eyes narrowed, and she looked at her eldest brother suspiciously: "You won't agree to date her for this reason, right?" Do you want her to be Xiao Wan's stand-in? ”
"You think too much," Gu Nianbin said lightly: "She came here to give you food, go down and sit with her." ”
"I'm not going," Gu Shanshan pouted: "Although Xiaowan is unreliable, let me tell you, this Miss Xia is even more unreliable, big brother, you have to be careful." ”
"Take care of yourself, and worry less about my business."
Gu Nianbin didn't bother to pay attention to her, turned around and left. was dragged by Gu Shanshan: "Big brother, I don't think this Miss Xia is simple, you really have to be careful!" ”
"Why do you say that people are not simple?" Gu Nianbin glanced at Gu Shanshan.
"By a woman's intuition." Gu Shanshan stretched her neck and glanced down, and lowered her voice: "Brother, you can't forget Xiao Wan because of this Miss Xia!" ”
Seeing Gu Shanshan's anxious look, Gu Nianbin sighed: "Seeing that someone used Xiao Wan's name, and even the appearance is similar, are you in a hurry?" If she cared, she would have been back a long time ago. Do you need to fight for her here? ”
"You!" Gu Shanshan shouted, realizing that there was someone below, and suppressed her voice again: "Isn't it not five years yet?" You can't wait? Even if you want to look for it, don't look for it according to Xiao Wan's appearance, you are called self-deception! ”
"It's none of your business." Gu Nianbin was about to leave, when he heard Fang Yaru shouting below: "What are you doing upstairs?" Come down and eat. He dragged Gu Shanshan downstairs and told her: "Don't talk nonsense when you go down, don't make your mother unhappy." Do you hear that? ”
Gu Shanshan pouted and said, "Don't upset your Miss Xia, right?" ”
"Look for a draw!" Gu Nianbin reached out and patted his sister on the head.
Gu Shanshan shouted at the bottom: "Mom! Brother hit me! ”
"Well played." Fang Yaru raised her head and glared at Gu Shanshan, and then said to Xia Xiaowan: "Don't mind, their brother and sister have been used to making trouble since childhood." ”
"Of course not, Auntie," Xia Xiaowan also stood up and looked at the brothers and sisters who were going downstairs: "I have no brothers and sisters, I envy them like this!" ”
Fang Yaru said with a smile: "If you don't want to be noisy, come often in the future, come back once in a long time, every time she comes back, the house will be lively." ”
While speaking, Gu Nianbin dragged Gu Shanshan downstairs, "Introduction, this is my sister Gu Shanshan, this is Xia Xiaowan." ”
"Hello, Shanshan," Xia Xiaowan looked at Gu Shanshan with a smile.
Gu Shanshan pretended to be surprised and said, "Your name is Xiaowan?" It's a coincidence......", before she finished speaking, Fang Yaru slapped her on the buttocks, "Okay, eat first, the dishes are cold." ”
Gu Shanshan said "ouch", winked at Gu Nianbin, and went to the restaurant with a smile.
When it was time to eat officially, Gu Shanshan put away the set of hippie smiles, looking like a beautiful girl, talking and laughing with Xia Xiaowan, and not mentioning Xia Xiaowan for a word. Gu Nianbin couldn't take any medicine sold in her gourd, as long as she didn't make a mistake, she didn't bother to pay attention to it.
After a dinner, the guests and hosts were happy, Fang Yaru liked Xia Xiaowan more and more, her talent, temperament and knowledge were good, she was generous in receiving people and things, and she was polite to her elders, which was simply impeccable. Fang Yaru couldn't wait to settle the marriage on the spot, and hinted at Gu Nianbin a few times, but seeing that he didn't react, she had to speak herself: "Xiaowan, I often come to the house to sit when I have time, as soon as Shanshan leaves, my aunt will be lonely, you come to talk to your aunt, okay?" ”
Xia Xiaowan smiled and said nothing, raised her eyes to look at Gu Nianbin, but Gu Nianbin lowered her head to drink tea, and didn't look at her, Fang Yaru hurriedly said: "Don't worry about Nianbin, he's busy with him, you come to your ......"
"Auntie, I'm ...... with Nian Bin" Xia Xiaowan pursed her lips: "It's just friends." ”
"That's right, it's because you're Nian Bin's friend that Auntie said that," Fang Yaru glanced at Gu Guangxian again.
Gu Guangxian cleared his throat and said, "Xiaowan, your aunt likes to be lively, and she comes to the house to talk to her more often." ”
Xia Xiaowan had no choice but to smile and nod: "Okay, then it's better to be respectful than to obey your fate, I will definitely come when I have time." ”
After sitting and drinking a cup of tea, and laughing for a while, Xia Xiaowan said goodbye, Gu Nianbin sent her to the car, with a slightly apologetic tone: "I'm sorry, don't take my mother's words to heart, she is a little anxious about my affairs." ”
"I understand," Xia Xiaowan looked down at the ground, and suddenly raised her head, as if she had mustered up her courage: "We're just ordinary friends now, but I hope that if that Miss Xia doesn't come back, you can consider me." ”
"Okay," Gu Nianbin nodded: "When the time comes, I'll think about it." ”
Xia Xiaowan chuckled lightly, looking over his shoulder, Fang Yaru and Gu Shanshan stood on the steps and looked at them from a distance, she hesitated for a moment, and then said, "If you don't mind, can I come again?" I promised my aunt just now, I don't want to break my trust......"
Gu Nianbin was silent for a moment and was silent. Xia Xiaowan hurriedly said: "If it's inconvenient for you, I can explain to my aunt, I ......"
"It's okay, Shanshan is gone, the house is indeed a lot deserted, it's okay for you to come and talk to her, but I'm embarrassed to trouble you."
"Don't bother," Xia Xiaowan said softly, "Then I'll go, thank you for your hospitality." ”
Gu Nianbin smiled and said, "I should thank my mother, she invited you to come." ”
"Yes, I'm grateful to Auntie, she's creating opportunities for me." Xia Xiaowan made a joke, smiled playfully at Gu Nianbin, waved her hand at Fang Yaru in the distance, turned around and sat in the car.
Gu Nianbin took two steps back and watched Xia Xiaowan's car go away. His expression was slightly condensed, and he could see that Xia Xiaowan was serious about him.
He took out a cigarette and put it in his mouth, did not light the fire, turned to look at the tall plane tree in the night, and finally lit the cigarette, and took a deep breath, the thick tobacco left a bitter taste in his throat, just like his current mood.
The wind blows, the dead leaves fall slowly, and the night is like a big black butterfly flying. Gu Nianbin threw the half-smoked cigarette at his feet and stepped on it, and slowly walked towards the house.
Ascending the steps, he suddenly paused, stepped back again, and bent down to look at the bushes on his right, where there seemed to be people.
Pulling out the low branches, revealing a small pointed face, he looked at him timidly: "Young Master." ”
"What are you doing here?" Gu Nianbin frowned slightly: "Why don't you lie in the house, are you healed?" ”
"Okay," Du Xiaoxian shrunk her body into a ball, although she slowly got acquainted with Gu Nianbin, she was still very afraid of him, as long as he expressed displeasure, she was nervous, "I'm tired of lying down, I want to come out to breathe." ”
Gu Nianbin saw that there was still a position on the side, so he didn't think much about it, and stepped over the branch and sat in.
"Like to sit here?" He tilted his head to look at her. The little girl's eyes seemed to be covered with water in the night, and he was reminded of the clear stream.
Seeing that Gu Nianbin's face softened, Du Xiaoxian relaxed a little, nodded, pointed to the bathing girl sculpture not far away and said, "I like to see her." ”
"Oh?" Gu Nianbin raised his eyebrows, "Why do you like to watch her?" ”
"She is very beautiful," Du Xiaoxian's voice was soft: "Looking at her, I will feel peaceful." After speaking, he smiled embarrassedly: "But when I first came, I didn't dare to look at it." ”
Gu Nianbin smiled, there was a faint fragrance lingering in his nasal cavity, as if there was nothing, not the smell of shampoo, as if it was emanating from Du Xiaoxian's body, he got closer, but the fragrance was still very light, causing him to get closer again and again, until Du Xiaoxian dodged slightly, he came back to his senses. Busy sitting upright.
Du Xiaoxian was a little embarrassed, and had nothing to say, "Young master, your girlfriend is very beautiful." ”
"Really?" Gu Nianbin asked casually.
"Yes, it's a good match for the young master." Du Xiaoxian had an affirmative expression on his face.
Gu Nianbin looked at her sideways: "You like her?" ”
"I like it."
"Why?"
"Because she is the person that the young master likes."
Gu Nianbin stopped talking, stared straight at her, and lowered her head.
Du Xiaoxian wrapped her fingers around, her heart went up and down, the young master's eyes were very strange, she could see that she was furious in her heart, did she say the wrong thing?
Just thinking about it, Gu Nianbin rubbed her hair and said lightly: "It's cold at night, go back to the house." ”
Du Xiaoxian hummed and raised his head, but saw that Gu Nianbin had already stepped over those low branches and walked towards the house.
