284 Minor stratagems
However, Chi Han did not.
What this means is already very clear, even if Chi Han used the word "disappointment" to describe Ji Xiaoqiu's kiss on him, it can't hide Chi Han's connivance with Ji Xiaoqiu at all.
As for why Chi Han went to the town again later, it was because Ji Xiaoqiu was sick and had a severe cold.
With a thick nasal voice, he called Chi Han on the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve,
"Chi Tezhu, can I trouble you with something?"
Chi Han originally wanted to refuse without hesitation, he didn't have to think about it to know that it would definitely not be a good thing for her to find him.
But listening to her nasal voice, I stopped the thought of refusal, so the words to be said became,
"What's the matter?"
"Ahem—"
Ji Xiaoqiu on the other end coughed heavily several times before he said with difficulty,
"I guess you can hear it, I'm suffering from a bad cold now, can you please go to the central hospital to buy some medicine for me? For so many years, every time I had a cold, I had to take the kind of medicine in the central hospital that was the most effective, and I couldn't buy it in our town. ”
After Ji Xiaoqiu finished speaking, there was a violent cough again.
Chi Han frowned slightly, and said,
"A cold is a self-healing disease, whether you take medicine or not, it will get better in a week or so."
For Chi Han, he has never regarded a minor illness like a cold as a disease, and when he was the most serious, he fainted on the street with a high fever, and later did not survive as usual.
Ji Xiaoqiu is weak,
"Oh, why are you so cold-blooded, although I will be fine in a few days, but don't I suffer now, I can be more comfortable by taking medicine."
It's not that Ji Xiaoqiu is hypocritical, it's really that she is too sick, not to mention the high fever, her throat is already hoarse like a broken gong, and she is uncomfortable with the pain.
And what she said is also the truth, her physique has not been good since she was a child, her father Ji Rufa almost took her to see all the famous hospitals in Yancheng, Chinese medicine and Western medicine have seen it, and then she really found a medicine in Yancheng Central Hospital, after she ate it, the symptoms caused by the cold will be relieved a lot, it cannot be said that it will be completely cured, but at least it will not continue to be uncomfortable.
Of course, the reason why she made herself like this is also a deliberate element in it.
Although it is quite depressing to freeze himself for the New Year, but there is no need to drag him here with such a bitter trick, can he stay in Yancheng and celebrate the New Year with that woman.
Originally, Ji Xiaoqiu didn't think about this, she planned to spend the Spring Festival holiday honestly and quietly, but since she knew that Chi Han was with that woman at this time, she had all kinds of restlessness, although she was quite chic when she left that day, but after returning home, she was not calm.
She regretted that she didn't drag Chi Han into the car at that time and forcibly rushed him to her house.
Later, she complained to Su Qiao and Gu Tingcheng in the group about this matter, and Gu Tingcheng laughed and teased her, saying that she was going to stage a scene of female bandits robbing relatives.
She wanted to grab it, but unfortunately she couldn't grab it, so she had to make this decision.
Listening to the man's silence at that end at this time, Ji Xiaoqiu wanted to indulge, and his voice was full of loneliness,
"Since you don't want to help with this, then forget it, I'll stay up like this."
After saying that, he was going to hang up the phone.
Ji Xiaoqiu thought to herself, if Chi Han really didn't react, she could only ask her father to drive to Yancheng to buy medicine for her.
Originally, this medicine has always been available in everyone since she was a child, but since she went to school in Yancheng and then stayed in Yancheng to work and rarely returned to the town, the family has not prepared this medicine, anyway, most of her work and life focus is in Yancheng, just go to Yancheng Central Hospital to grab medicine at any time.
"What's the name of the medicine?"
When Ji Xiaoqiu was lonely and was about to hang up the phone, it was the man's somewhat impatient voice coming from that end, Ji Xiaoqiu secretly laughed at this end, and secretly made a gesture of success, and then gratefully reported the name of the medicine to Chi Han.
Then Chi Han went to the hospital to buy the medicine she wanted for Ji Xiaoqiu, and drove over in person.
Ji Xiaoqiu immediately sent a task to his father Ji Ru, who must leave Chi Han for the New Year.
Ji Rufa naturally knows Chi Han, isn't Gu Tingshen's most powerful special assistant?
A talent, young and promising.
Ji Rufa was very satisfied, so after Chi Han sent the medicine, he tried his best to warmly invite Chi Han to stay, Chi Han arrived at noon, and originally thought that he would leave after sending the medicine, but Ji Rufa was too enthusiastic to keep him to eat together, and the so-called hospitality was difficult, so he stayed and had lunch.
As a result, he was drunk by Ji Rufa.
When he woke up from a sleep, he found that it was already the time when the firecrackers were lit up at night.
I have to say that the Chinese New Year's Eve night in the town is very comfortable.
Welcoming, warm.
Chi Han inexplicably felt that he had survived in the big city of the steel jungle for so many years, and he was inexplicably relaxed and at ease.
The sound of the father and daughter laughing loudly came from downstairs, and he was still a little sore lying on the bed, so he couldn't help but hook the corners of his lips and laugh softly.
After the Chinese New Year in the Ji family, Chi Han did not leave the town, but he did not continue to live in Ji Xiaoqiu's house, but went to the lakeside villa where Su Qiao and the others had lived before, anyway, it was also a vacation, and he might as well be comfortable in the town.
It's a person to go back, and it's a person here.
On the contrary, the air here is also fresh, the folk customs are also simple, and it is a good resort, so it is good to go out on vacation during his annual vacation.
Ji Xiaoqiu came to pester him every day, he still didn't take care of her much like before, anyway, whether he took care of her or not, she was happy.
And Chi Han's New Year's Eve in the town, Gu Tingshen naturally knew about it, although Chi Han himself didn't take the initiative to say anything in front of Gu Tingshen, but Su Qiao and Ji Xiaoqiu were very good friends, Ji Xiaoqiu chatted with Su Qiao and Gu Tingcheng in the group about everything, and Gu Tingshen naturally knew everything about Chi Han from Su Qiao.
So Gu Tingshen didn't disturb Chi Han on this business trip, after all, his right-hand man has also reached the age of trial marriage, it's time to take off the order, as the boss, he must fully support it.
*
Gu Tingshen kept in touch with Su Qiao every day, but the day before Gu Tingshen finished his work and was about to come back, Su Qiao couldn't contact him in any way.
At first, Gu Tingshen never called and didn't hear from him, so Su Qiao took the initiative to call Gu Tingshen, firstly to confirm Gu Tingshen's safety, and secondly, to confirm with Gu Tingshen the specific itinerary of his return, and then Su Qiao would go to the airport to pick him up.
However, Su Qiao's call to Gu Tingshen has never been answered.
Su Qiao comforted himself, maybe Gu Tingshen's phone was out of battery, or maybe he was busy with something else and didn't care about answering the phone.
She waited patiently for half noon, and continued to call Gu Tingshen at about twelve o'clock in the afternoon.
Gu Tingshen is in Washington, USA, there is exactly a 12-hour time difference with China, China is now twelve o'clock at noon, then Gu Tingshen's side should be twelve o'clock at night, no matter what happened to Gu Tingshen during the day, he should go back to the hotel to sleep and rest at this point.
This time, Gu Tingshen's phone still didn't get through, and Su Qiao was completely panicked.
She called Chi Han as soon as possible, she thought about asking for the phone number of Gu Tingshen's partner from Chi Han, and calling the person in charge of receiving Gu Tingshen over there to ask about Gu Tingshen's whereabouts.
When Chi Han's phone was connected, Su Qiao's voice trembled,
"Chi Han, Gu Tingshen has been on a business trip to Washington on the past few days, do you know which clients he is going to meet this time? Can you reach them? ”
Chi Han was a little surprised,
"Mr. Gu is on a business trip? What happened? ”
Su Qiao didn't care about saying anything else, only nervously explained,
"He's been there for three days, and he was supposed to come back tomorrow, but I haven't been able to get through to him since this morning—"
As soon as Su Qiao said this, Chi Han knew what she meant, and his voice condensed at the moment,
"I'm already on my way back to Yancheng now, I'll check Mr. Gu's original itinerary right away and call you back."
"Hmmm......"
Su Qiao now had no other way but to wait for Chi Han's news.
About ten minutes later, Chi Han called her back, and she asked anxiously,
"How's it going?"
Chi Han's voice was a little heavy on that end,
"I contacted our customer in Washington, but the customer said that Mr. Gu went back to the hotel after they had a farewell dinner with Mr. Gu the night before, and he had no contact with them......
Su Qiao was in the apartment where she and Gu Tingshen lived on weekdays at this time, because Gu Tingshen would come back from a business trip tomorrow, and they would soon end the Spring Festival holiday and go to work, and they would not continue to live in Gu's house, so Su Qiao came over in advance today to clean up the house.
Su Huaijin was placed in the Gu house and taken care of by Gu's father and mother, and after listening to Chi Han's words at this time, Su Qiao sat down on the sofa and muttered worriedly,
"What now? I haven't been able to get in touch with him......"
"Chi Han, I'm so worried about him."
Su Qiao panicked, and all kinds of bad pictures came to mind in an instant, and those pictures were enough to make her tremble.
Chi Han could only comfort,
"You calm down, Mr. Gu will be fine, believe me."
Others may not know, but Chi Han knows Gu Tingshen's skills, several of them received special training together at that time, Gu Tingshen's skills will only be better than him, not worse than him, but Gu Tingshen has no chance to use these skills on weekdays, so no one knows about this.
However, after comforting Su Qiao like this, Chi Han frowned slightly.
What he said was only based on the fact that Gu Tingshen was conscious, and if someone attacked him or tried to disadvantage him, he would be able to save himself or defeat the other party.
But if someone does something to him, then Gu Tingshen may not be safe.
