Chapter 572: Wait, Give Up (12)
The atmosphere that was already slightly awkward became completely embarrassing in an instant.
Tang Shi realized that the atmosphere was wrong, frowned slightly, and before he could open his mouth to ask, "What's wrong", he was the first to see Gu Qingcheng, the originally slightly lazy look on his face became a little paused for a moment, and his lips moved, without emitting a character.
Since she went home for the New Year, Gu Tingcheng thought that she was very likely to run into Tang Shi, but she didn't expect that she had just stood at the door of the Gu family and bumped into Tang Shi so unexpectedly.
He is still the same cold and indifferent old look, probably because it is Chinese New Year's Eve, he is no longer wearing those usual clothes and leather shoes, but casually wearing a white sweater, with a long black trench coat outside, casual and elegant, lining others to look much younger than the office.
Everyone present was a human spirit, and the atmosphere was only stiff for only half a minute, and Tang Shi's eldest sister Tang Wan took the lantern from Tang Shi's hand with a smile: "Ah Shi, I just remembered that I stewed dessert in the kitchen, and now it's almost time, you go and help me find a maid to serve the pot." ”
Tang Shi didn't know that Tang Wan was supporting himself to ease the atmosphere, he stared straight at Gu Tingcheng and continued to look at it for about five seconds, then he stretched out his hand and handed the two red lanterns to Tang Wan, then turned around and walked towards the courtyard of the Tang family.
Gu Tingcheng's gaze was still on Tang Shi's body, I don't know if it was April's words, it worked, the moment he turned around, she subconsciously paid attention to his legs, and found that his elegant steps were really as April said, slightly hesitant, especially the left leg, which was very stiff when he took a step.
As soon as Tang Shi's figure disappeared at the gate of the Tang family, Mrs. Gu immediately walked back to the door of Gu's house, glanced at Gu Qingcheng, and said, "Come in." ”
Then he took the lead in turning around and walked towards the Gu family's courtyard.
Gu Qingcheng hurriedly followed.
Although I haven't looked back at my home for forty days, the living room has changed a lot, many old furniture has been replaced with new ones, and the butler is preparing Chinese New Year's Eve dishes in the kitchen.
Mrs. Gu did not mention the marriage between Gu Tingcheng and Tang Shi, nor did she chase after Gu Tingcheng as before to ask her about the reason for her contact with the marriage contract, but just instructed the maid to clean Gu Tingcheng's room, and then motioned for Gu Tingcheng to sit.
Gu Zhengnan entered the room after him, sitting on the sofa directly opposite Gu Tingcheng, and like Mrs. Gu, he didn't need to mention those past things, but simply asked Gu Tingcheng a few words about the recent situation.
Gu Qingcheng told Gu Zhengnan about the house he rented and the place where he was working now.
Mrs. Gu came over with a cup of tea, and when she heard Gu Tingcheng's words, her expression paused, and then she handed the tea to Gu Tingcheng and said, "If you don't want to live outside, come back and live, as for work, if you really like it, it's up to you." ”
This is in Gu Qingcheng's memory, Mrs. Gu said to her the warmest sentence.
Her eyes instantly became a little hot, she lowered her eyes, pulled up a smile, and whispered "um" at Gu Zhengnan and Mrs. Gu.

As soon as night fell, the sound of firecrackers could be heard outside the window.
