Chapter 17: Give Him Back
July in Shanghai is still hot and dry, and the leaves on the roadside are rustling in the wind, and from time to time a few leaves fall down and pass by the car.
The old house is too far away, a mysterious alley. Crooked, she looked at the map cautiously, only afraid that she was driving in the wrong direction at the entrance of the alley.
As a result, I saw a man standing under the plane tree not far away, watching him from afar. The hem of her clothes was lifted by the wind, and she was looking at her.
Gu Hui hurriedly parked the car on the side of the road and got out of the car.
"An Yan, why are you out here?"
He stretched out his hand towards Gu Hui, and his smiling eyes crooked: "It's not that I'm afraid that you, a road idiot, won't find the way, I will have to come out to pick you up when the time comes, so I will come out to pick you up in advance, lest you get lost." β
Gu Hui raised her head and smiled, relaxed at the moment, and the stupidity in her heart instantly came out, allowing An Yan to take her hand into the palm of her hand.
"It's okay, I've turned on the navigation, and I won't get lost."
An Yan looked at her and said, "Even if it's really lost, I'm not afraid, anyway, if someone is lost, I can get it back." β
But if the heart is lost, how can you get it back?
The two of them walked back hand in hand, the cool breeze was blowing, but it was quite comfortable. Although the alley is remote, it is very clean, and it has a bit of an old-fashioned feel.
The exterior walls of the old house are all stone carvings, very delicate carvings. However, the walls are crawling with unknown vines, and the vines are blooming with unknown purple flowers, and the air is faintly fragrant, which is very pleasant.
Before following An Yan to knock on the door and enter the house, Gu Hui was inexplicably a little nervous. Although I had already met her once last time, An's father and mother, as well as her uncle and aunt, were very enthusiastic about her.
Especially An's mother completely treated her as a child, and as soon as she entered the door, she was very enthusiastic and asked her to sit down in the courtyard. personally poured her a cup of jasmine tea, the hot tea, the water was steaming.
Drink it in your mouth, a little bit of aroma between your lips and teeth.
grabbed a handful of chocolates and stuffed them for her, and she treated her as a future daughter-in-law: "Louis eat more, my aunt and I are preparing dinner now, your first time, let An Yan take you to the backyard." β
Gu Hui smiled very obediently: "Thank you, Auntie." β
In the end, I went to the backyard with An Yan for a turn, and a jujube tree was planted in the south-facing direction of the yard. The branches are luxuriant, and at this moment the twilight is low, and there is a faint sound of insects.
An Yan asked her, "Don't you plan to tell me anything about today's incident at all?" β
Gu Hui didn't know how to answer, and looked at him for a few seconds before saying, "I've troubled you enough, I don't want to make you more troubled even if it's something I can solve." β
She always treats him like this, not close or far, obviously feeling that the two of them are already very close. But after all, there was a chasm, and she was unwilling to show her true thoughts in front of him.
Both men were silent, no one broke the deadlock, and for a moment they looked embarrassed.
In the end, it was Gu Hui who spoke first: "Didn't you say that there was news about those people last time, have you found out where they are now?" β
An Yan shook his head: "Yu Pengsheng's whereabouts have been unstable in the past few years, and he will leave every time he stays in one place for a long time. So there's no way to know for sure where he is, but you don't have to worry, at least you have evidence in your hands and you can definitely make him accept the punishment of the law. β
Gu Hui nodded lightly.
Actually, I didn't have much hope, after all, it was a few years ago. It is estimated that that person has already forgotten about this matter now, and when she is dead, she will never have the courage to take the initiative to overturn the case.
The next day, she plunged headlong into work, and she was busy fixing bugs in the APP. was so busy collecting user experience reports, so busy that he even had lunch packed and sent to the office, making himself unkempt, hoping that a week later, Wen Zhixia would be able to look at it differently.
Gu Hui worked overtime until eleven o'clock in the evening before coming out of the building, raised his hand and twisted his neck, and moved his muscles.
Gu Hui drove the car out of the underground parking lot, his tired eyelids fighting all the time. Just as she was about to speed up and drive straight home, a white figure suddenly rushed up and stopped her car with her arms outstretched.
Gu Hui's eyes widened and he hurriedly stepped on the brakes.
The man immediately pounced and knocked on her car window.
Gu Hui lowered the window, and it was Wen Chuhan outside. Her face was full of sorrow, she had never dressed so neatly and neatly, nor had she ever been so weak and pitiful.
She clutched the car window tightly: "Gu Hui, I want to talk to you, no matter what, please talk to me." β
Gu Hui instantly felt that her head was big, she originally wanted to go straight away. But thinking of the dangerous move she had just made, she finally had to stop the car and go with her to a nearby 24-hour Starbucks.
She asked for a cup of hot milk, and Gu Hui asked for a cup of hot cocoa.
She pinched the cup with both hands, her original curly hair was straightened, her makeup was very light, she was wearing a white dress, and her whole person was almost completely new, no wonder Gu Hui couldn't recognize it at the first time.
Gu Hui didn't know what was going on, why she suddenly sold miserably in front of her. Is it because you know that she doesn't eat threats, so now you change your approach?
Her long hair fell down her shoulders: "I ...... with Brother Zhixia"
It's Wen Zhixia again, and she doesn't have to think about it to know what she wants to say. Gu Hui didn't bother to listen, so he simply interrupted her words neatly: "Please deal with the matter between you and Wen Zhixia in private, I don't want to hear you tell you about everything between you." I'm sorry, but I have work tomorrow and I'm going back to rest. β
Wen Chuhan raised his eyes, and there were tears in his eyes: "I know that you are already engaged to An Yan...... I don't care where you come from, how you got to the position of vice president of Xinfan. I just want to ask you, since you have decided to marry An Yan, can you stop pestering Brother Zhixia? β
Gu Hui frowned: "Which eye did you see me pestering him?" β
Even if he deliberately angered her last time, he said that he would not give up Wen Zhixia. That's just a joke, she is not in the mood to dwell on these feelings and loves, she just wants to find evidence for revenge.
After thinking about it, she said again: "If you are talking about project cooperation, then you should go and talk to Wen Zhixia." Let him be forgiving and forgiving, and finalize the project cooperation as soon as possible, and I will not meet him again. β
Wen Chuhan seemed very quiet today, and Gu Hui's voice just fell. Her shoulders twitched slightly, and she sobbed.
Her voice was intermittent: "I know he can't let go of you, even if you have a fiancΓ©, he still won't give up on you." But I don't know what to do, Gu Hui...... You have everything now, but I'm different, if I lose Brother Zhixia, I won't have anything......"
Gu Hui had a headache, and she took a deep breath.
"You won't lose him, and even if you lose him, you won't have nothing."
