Chapter 122: The Calm Before the Storm
When I got home at night, I happened to encounter a power outage, and the whole villa was pitch black.
I didn't eat anything and wanted to come back to eat the chef's craft, but who knew that the chefs would only eat air when they came home from vacation and the power outage.
Hey, you can't let yourself go hungry, can you?
I walked to the kitchen with the flashlight of my mobile phone, it was pitch black, and my hand subconsciously stretched out into the darkness, and then touched something.
I was shocked, and there was a cold sweat behind my back.
Don't!?
Haunted?!!
Swallowed his saliva and pursed his dry lips.
The flashlight was subconsciously raised, and a human face appeared in front of him.
"Ahh~!"
He grabbed something and threw it straight in front of him, then snorted.
"What are you crazy about?"
There was a subtle hint of anger in his words.
"Huh??"
The flashlight was raised, and the moment it shone on that face, the stone hanging in his heart was suddenly lowered.
"Dog man! You're here to be scary! ”
Gu Mo was so frightened that he didn't choose to speak, and casually put the flashlight in front of Fang Zhixu, and the light of the flashlight made Fang Zhixu's eyes white.
"Gu Mo, take it."
Gu Mo took back the phone angrily, "Why are you here?" ”
"There's no power and there's nothing to eat, come and have a look in the kitchen."
It's just like her.
"Since you're here, get me something to eat."
???
So taken for granted? This shamelessness is really Chen Xue's true biography!
"Why?"
"One meal, 500,000 debts."
Is she stupid or is Fang Zhixu crazy? For a bowl of noodles, you are willing to take 500,000 yuan?
"Okay! You turn on the flashlight, I'll do it. ”
No new hatred or old hatred matters as money comes!
Start boiling water in the dark, wash the vegetables, and take out the eggs from the refrigerator.
It was pitch black and invisible, so the two bowls of tomato and egg noodles didn't come out for a while.
Fang Zhixu stood motionless behind Gu Mo's right and held his mobile phone to illuminate, the light shone Gu Mo's side face on the wall of the kitchen, and the shadows on the wall could not see the facial features clearly, but the hazy outline of the face could be seen clearly.
It's been a long time since I've seen her cook for him like this, I still remember that two years ago she got him a lunch box, he took it all the way to the company like a baby, and that morning the meeting was late at noon, and when he returned to the office, he saw that the lunch box was thrown directly into the trash.
He was so angry that he was furious on the spot.
On that day, everyone in the entire company did not dare to walk out of the atmosphere, and was interrogated one by one, and finally found out that it was the cleaner aunt who threw it away by mistake.
After that, Gu Mo never cooked for him again, and if she didn't take the initiative to do it, he naturally wouldn't take the initiative to ask for it.
"Salt."
"Salt!!"
When Gu Mo shouted salt for the third time, he would be distracted.
"Oh, I'll get it for you."
"Hurry up, hurry up, get something and you can still be in a daze."
Gu Mo muttered angrily, and the corners of Fang Zhixu's mouth rose slightly in the dark.
The salt was placed on the leftmost shelf, but Gu Mo was cutting vegetables on the right side, afraid that she would not be able to see clearly if the light was far away, so she had to let her hand with light not move, and slowly moved to the left, looking around Gu Mo's back, looking from behind, it looked like a person was hugging with open hands.
As soon as the dish was cut, Gu Mo retreated, and accidentally stepped on Fang Zhixu's foot.
When he found something abnormal, he immediately raised his legs, but his center of gravity was unstable, and he fell directly into the fragrance of sandalwood.
Fang Zhixu, who had just finished taking the salt, was bumped by the person in his arms, was slightly stunned, and immediately lowered his head.
In the dark, eyes wander and breath intertwined.
The tips of the noses touch.
The light reflected on the wall resembled two people kissing.
His heart trembled, he retreated again and again, and in a panic, his hand was on the edge of the boiling pot, and a heart-piercing pain hit.
I gasped, and my brain throbbed in pain.
A pair of hands suddenly fell over his shoulders, and he was pulled away from the stove.
"Hot?"
Fang Zhixu was nervous for a while, grabbed Gu Mo's hand and rinsed it under cold water.
"Does it hurt?"
The cold water rushed to the burning wound, making Gu Mo, who had been obsessed with men for a short time, wake up instantly.
Withdraw your hand decisively.
Holding those hands and freezing in the air, the atmosphere was suddenly awkward.
Gu Mo took two steps back, his eyes dodging.
"I'm fine, the noodles are cooked, let's eat."
Fang Zhixu's eyes couldn't be seen clearly in the darkness, only that the person would disappear soon after she finished saying this.
Gu Mo, who was sitting at the dining table, looked at the steaming tomato and egg noodles in front of him, and the opposite side was empty, and he suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.
This Fang Zhixu is just teasing her! I asked her to cook the noodles but she didn't eat them when they were cooked, and I didn't want to eat what she got from the beginning as before!
Don't eat it! Just enough for her to eat two bowls!
I took another bowl of noodles, and before I could start it, I heard a sound from behind me.
"Hungry? I don't even know what to wait for. ”
The sudden sound frightened Gu Mo's chopsticks so much that he almost couldn't hold them steadily.
"No ......"
Before he finished speaking, he only felt that his hands were cold, and the candles on the table shone on Fang Zhixu's side face, and he saw the fan-like eyelashes in the dim light.
Lowering his eyes slightly, he gently rubbed the back of Gu Mo's hand with his hand.
"Fortunately, the scalding is not deep, and it should be fine if you rub the medicine a few more times."
She tried to retract her hand, but someone seemed to be holding her wrist defensively, neither hurting her nor keeping her from escaping.
"Okay, the medicine is for you, remember to wipe it on time."
Gu Mo retracted his gaze, lowered his head, his face was slightly warm, and the noodles next to him were taken away.
"It smells pretty good."
In the dark, the corners of his mouth went up, and he seemed to be very satisfied.
"It's my birthday the day after tomorrow, remember to be on time."
Fang Zhixu took a bite of noodles and nodded with satisfaction.
Gu Mo replied lightly, "Hmm".
Of course, she wants to give him a big gift, just to see if he can stand it then!
*
Two days later.
Gu Mo got up early in the morning, there was a battle to be fought today, but she had to meet someone before the battle.
After getting dressed, he was about to go out, when he met Fang Zhixu, who was waiting in the living room downstairs.
"Where are you going so early?"
Wearing shoes, explain slowly.
"I also bought something for my mother for your birthday today, now go out to get it, and then I will go directly to the venue of the birthday party."
"Then remember the time, go early and return early."
"Okay."
The door closed, Fang Zhixu looked down at the tablet in his hand again, but he kept thinking about the gift that Gao Cheng said before, and he didn't know what it was.
After tidying up his clothes and getting up from his position, Gao Cheng hurriedly followed.
"Gao Cheng, go."
"Yes."
Outside the door was the car that Gu Mo had just driven out, and soon arrived at the place agreed with Xie Xun.
"wE Bao, here."
Xie Xun's spirit has improved a lot after a period of conditioning, and he has returned to his usual lazy and lazy appearance as always.
Blonde and blue-eyed, even if he sits in the most inconspicuous corner of the café, he can still make Gu Mo notice him as soon as he enters the door.
Xie Xun himself is an existence that cannot be ignored by anyone, and he can understand why Fang Zhixu always regards him as an enemy.
Pull out of your seat and sit down, with a glass of freshly squeezed orange juice in front of you, and take a few sips of the cup in a good mood.
Xie Xun leaned lazily on the back of the chair, grabbed a box with his fingertips and slowly pushed it in front of Gu Mo.
"Here, what you want."
Before, Chen Xue asked her for purple tears, but she went through the entire A city and no one knew, and in the end, she had to ask Xie Xun for help.
"It is worthy of the young master of the Xie family."
Swallowing the juice into his throat, he hurriedly put the purple tears in his hand, opened it and looked at it, but after observing it for a long time, he didn't see anything unusual about this purple tear.
"Why can't you find this thing in City A?"
"Who knows, it may be monopolized by a big jewelry company."
"Anyway, I got the things, and the favor you asked me to help was done."
Xie Xun's eyelids drooped and he yawned, "By the way, I picked this thing for you from a bunch, with a red pattern in the middle, which looks better than the others." ”
"But no matter how beautiful it is, it's not expensive."
Is it monopolized and the price is not expensive? Why is that?
Gu Mo didn't come up with a reason in his mind for a long time, so he didn't bother to think about it and put the things in his bag.
"Thank you anyway, just wait to see my good show today!"
The corners of Xie Xun's mouth twitched, "What do I think, Fang Zhixu didn't invite me again!" However, all the partners present today are some of the Fang family's partners, do you want to sweep Fang Zhixu's face in front of so many people, have you thought about the consequences? ”
Gu Mo's face sank, "Since Fang Zhixu wants to protect Xia Li, then I won't let him keep it!" ”
"If you dare to kidnap me, you must pay the price, and I have basically determined that what happened two years ago is related to Xia Li."
As soon as he heard this, Xie Xun immediately dissipated his laziness, propped himself up, and looked at Gu Mo with a serious face.
"Are you sure?"
Gu Mo held the cup in his hand and turned it slowly, "When I was kidnapped, the kidnapper who escaped said that the incident two years ago was related to him, and I was kidnapped again two years later, and the two things have only one thing in common. ”
Xie Xun's eyes were gloomy, "Xia Li is present in both things." ”
"But Xia Li's donkey brain must not have thought of such a meticulous plan, and there must be a pair of bigger hands behind her to help."
Gu Mo's eyes darkened, "It's just that there is no evidence to prove it yet, and it still needs to be investigated." ”
He took another sip of orange juice and sighed heavily.
"Let's not talk about this first, I'm going to go first, the show is about to start, how can I, the protagonist, be late?!"
Grab your bag and get up slowly.
"Wait."
Xie Xun was still lazy, and his fingers tapped lightly on the table twice.
"What? What else? ”
"You don't have to worry about going, I will park the car outside and wait for you, if you really make the Fang family anxious, you give me a call, and I will take someone to rush in."
The last blow on the table was so hard that my fingertips were a little numb.
"Anyway, it's been a long time since the Fang family was unpleasant."
The eyelids are raised, and he feels like a ruffian.
"Anyway, my Xie family is not afraid of the Fang family."
"Tut-tut, you pay for this coffee, but Young Master Ben is out to eat white food."
Gu Mo sneered helplessly, "Okay, Young Master Xie!" ”
"One last little sugar, the birthday party of the Shura field is about to begin! ~
Everyone has time to urge the change, vote for some votes~Jiumi~"
