Chapter 9 Overnight at Gao Minlang's house
Mo Zhilan stared at Gao Minlang intently, and for a moment her consciousness was in a trance, especially when Gao Minlang said the word 'Uncle Mo', which made her feel as if she was back in the past.
In the past, Gao Minlang called Zhilan's father these two words, and Zhilan called Gao Minlang's father "Uncle Gao". Since they separated ten years ago, the two names Zhilan have not been heard again.
"You mean... Have you seen my dad? Zhilan confirmed with Gao Minlang, as if she couldn't believe what she had just heard.
"Yes!" Gao Minlang replied frankly: "I came back a year and a half ago, and I went to visit him, by the way..." He buried his head, as if to observe whether the steak was the medium-rare he wanted, but a few words popped out of his throat: "Inquire about your news!" ”
Zhilan snorted: "How can my father meet you?" ”
"Zhilan..."Gao Minlang called her name softly, and after ten years, they sat here for the first time, and he didn't want to be affected by the past events: "Let's not talk about these things today, okay?" ”
Mo Zhilan's heart trembled slightly, for ten years, she hadn't heard this person call her name, but now it sounds different.
Zhilan picked up the knife and fork, nodded and said in agreement: "Yes, don't talk about it..."
Gao Minlang didn't stop her, if he allowed it, he would definitely accompany her not to get drunk and not return.
I didn't eat much steak, and most of the red wine had gone down.
Looking at Gao Minlang in front of her, Zhilan felt that he had been shaking, and there was also a ghost, which became two for a while, and then into one again. She knew that she had drunk too much!
"Alright, that's all for today, send me back!" Zhilan put down the goblet.
"Good!" Gao Minlang replied briskly, although he didn't say a word about what he wanted to say, but he knew that they would have a next time. So he was not in a hurry to express anything, but he just provoked Zhilan to drink so much wine Gao Minlang was a little self-blaming.
Gao Minlang got up and came to Zhilan's side: "Are you okay?" ”
Zhilan looked at the cheeks that were close at hand, it had been ten years, and she never thought that she would have the opportunity to see him so closely.
"It's fine!" But as soon as she stood up, she lost her center of gravity, and then fell into Gao Minlang's arms.
Looking at the soft person in his arms, Gao Minlang mustered up the courage to pick her up, but she didn't resist, which made Gao Minlang feel a lot more at ease.
Gao Minlang didn't know if all girls were like this, they would sleep quietly when they were drunk, but Mo Zhilan was indeed like this, he helped her put the co-pilot's seat slightly flat, and she was sleeping at the moment. No gibberish, no snoring, the broken hair on her forehead covered half of her eyes, and the hair on the left side was behind her ear... Gao Minlang looked at her and said: Compared with ten years ago, you seem to be a lot more well-behaved, but why can't I always see through you.
Halfway through the car, he suddenly realized that Zhilan was already drunk and in a mess, and there must be no one to take care of her when he sent her home, so after hesitating, he turned the steering wheel and drove in the direction of his home.
When he arrived at the basement of the community and parked the car, Zhilan was still asleep, Gao Minlang held Zhilan in his arms again, hugging him all the way, even when waiting for the elevator, he didn't let go.
Looking at the person who didn't cry or make trouble in his arms, Gao Minlang smiled, although they were lovers ten years ago, they didn't have such intimate contact, at that time they had to sneak her hand, let alone a closer behavior, it was impossible to achieve, Zhilan is an old-fashioned person, falling in love in high school was already deviant in her eyes, breaking the old and establishing the new, if they hadn't known each other since childhood, I'm afraid Zhilan wouldn't have easily agreed to her, but God didn't fulfill them, he confessed on the first day, and they became enemies the next day.
Gao Minlang entered the elevator, and his thoughts were also pulled back and forth. When he got out of the elevator, he opened the door with difficulty and gently put Zhilan on the bed, which was his own bed, for so many years, his bed had not been touched by anyone except himself, even Junqiu, he didn't allow it. But when he brought Zhilan home, he put it on his bed without thinking about it, took off her shoes and covered the quilt for her.
The drunk woman seemed to be more attractive, and even the saliva left on the corner of her mouth made Gao Minlang feel very cute, so he squatted there and looked at her in a daze for a long time.
I can't tell when he began to miss Mo Zhilan boundlessly, obviously he said such heartless words at the time, but in the end he slapped himself in the face, he put aside the luxurious working environment abroad, he had to run back to be the design director of a newly established automobile company, in fact, only he knew that he couldn't let go of the girl who was his childhood sweetheart.
Being able to see Mo Zhilan again made him smile and overjoyed, since the last time they met in the hotel, he wanted to go to the hotel to find her again more than once, but he was afraid of disturbing her peaceful life. Just like now, although Zhilan is in front of him, he is really afraid that Zhilan's mobile phone will suddenly ring, and then the other party will say that it is Zhilan's boyfriend!
Thankfully, nothing like that happened.
He slept in the living room, he could have slept in other bedrooms, but thinking that he could hear Zhilan's movement in the living room, if she was uncomfortable, he could take care of her as soon as possible! So he slept all night.
Zhilan had a long dream, the dream was boundless darkness, she was in the darkness, as if she would never see the light, there was no one around... Before sinking into the darker abyss, she woke up and looked at the strange surroundings, not knowing whether it was in a dream or in reality.
Zhilan lifted the quilt, and her clothes were intact. After trying to recall what happened last night, and then looking at this unfamiliar environment, Zhilan already understood that this might be Gao Minlang's home.
Just as she was about to get out of bed to take a look, the bedroom door was pushed open, and Gao Minlang appeared in front of her in a home suit, and then looked at Zhilan with a gentle face: "How is it?" Feeling better? ”
Zhilan rubbed her temples, which were still a little swollen and painful, and said with a light smile: "It's okay, thank you last night." ”
"Say thank you and you'll see you!" Gao Minlang said with some self-reproach: "After all, I was the culprit who made you drunk last night!" ”
Zhilan smiled: "Don't always take the responsibility on yourself, you didn't feed me, it's my own fault." Saying that, Zhilan walked up to Gao Minlang: "I still have to go to work, I'll go back first!" ”
"If you don't mind, I'll send you to breakfast here, I'll get up early, just prepare some!"
Thinking that she didn't even bring toiletries, Zhilan refused: "I'd better go home, I didn't bring all my things." ”
As soon as the words fell, Gao Minlang took out a bag from behind him like a trick and handed it to Zhilan: "If you don't dislike it, you can use it first." ”
Zhilan took the bag suspiciously, which contained toothpaste, toothbrushes, towels, facial cleanser and simple skin care products.
"When did you buy it?" Zhilan asked in surprise.
"While you're still asleep!"
"But so early..."
"There is a 24-hour shop..."
"Thank you..."
It seems that what Zhilan wants to say, Gao Minlang has already seen it, in fact, he is very grateful to Zhilan for not asking him why he brought her back home when she was drunk, he thinks that even if he really just wants to take care of her, I'm afraid he can't explain it clearly.
However, Zhilan had a feeling that it was difficult to ride a tiger, since this was the case, she couldn't shirk it, and under the guidance of Gao Minlang, she finished washing and then sat at the dining table.
Oatmeal porridge with red dates, boiled eggs, fresh milk, well, it's really simple enough.
"You've just drunk alcohol, so you shouldn't eat anything that's hard to digest...," Gao explained.
"I know, thank you!"
Early in the morning, he received three thanks from Zhilan, and Gao Minlang was indeed a little sad in his heart.
Halfway through breakfast, Zhilan said, "I watched yesterday's news..."
The words that suddenly came out made Gao Minlang not react for a moment, and he looked at Zhilan suspiciously. Zhilan continued: "Your company has an emergency recall. ”
"Oh" Gao Minlang suddenly realized: "I didn't expect it, you also paid attention!" ”
"But judging by the way you look, it doesn't seem to be serious!" Zhilan teased him.
"I'm just pretending to be relaxed, in fact, this heart..."Gao Minlang smiled and pointed to the location of the heart: "It's a lot of pressure." ”
Zhilan nodded: "Being in a high position, I can understand!" ”
Gao Minlang smiled helplessly: "What a high position, I don't work for people yet." ”
Zhilan didn't say anything, she knew from the past that Gao Minlang must be a successful person one day, she thought that he would start his own business and become a boss, or inherit his father's career, but no matter what, it would be better than a poor worm like her who crawled from the bottom, thinking that back then, although her family was not very wealthy, she was also spoiled as a princess by her parents, but she never thought that her life would be so 'colorful'.
"What do you think?" Gao Minlang looked at Mo Zhilan, her hand holding the spoon had been hanging on the bowl for a long time.
Zhilan put down the spoon, looked around, and asked, "What is this house..."
"Bought it!" Gao Minlang did not shy away from it: "Since returning to China, I want to settle down, although the house price is rising now, but sooner or later I have to buy!"
"Not bad!" Zhilan nodded: "I like your Mediterranean decoration style very much!" ”
"If you like it, you will come often!" Gao Minlang raised his head and took a sip of milk.
Zhilan was stunned for a moment, and then explained: "I didn't mean that. ”
Gao Minlang was also stunned, he knew that his words were misunderstood by Zhilan: "I didn't mean that either." ”
The two looked at each other and smiled, and then went to work.
When the car drove on Shangyang Road, it was expected that there was a traffic jam, this road is one of the main roads in the city, and the vast majority of office workers must pass through, so traffic jams in the morning rush hour have become commonplace.
Zhilan looked at the bustling vehicles crawling like snails, and suddenly said: "Now that domestic new energy vehicles are in full swing, don't you Fenghua plan to develop in this area?" ”
Gao Minlang didn't squint, but there were waves in his heart, after many years, they could still have a heart, just like when they were in school, as long as they looked at each other, they knew what the other party would do next and what they would say.
"Fenghua has not been established for a long time, and many links are not yet mature, but I have already thought about this problem. It won't be long before it will be put into action. ”
I wanted to discuss Zhilan again, but her phone rang. Gao Minlang heard it clearly, the other party was a male voice!
