A knock on the door interrupted the stubborn confrontation.

Gu Huaizhi got up and went to open the door.

"Mr. Gu, the porridge is hot." The babysitter waited quietly by the door with a tray.

"Give it to me." He reached out and took it, glancing at his watch, "You go down and rest, you don't need you here." ”

The babysitter answered and turned to leave.

"Wait!"

The girl turned around, looked at the man with cold eyebrows in front of her, and stood with her hands down, "What's the matter?" Mr. Gu. ”

"What's your name?"

"My name is Chen Mingxi!"

Gu Huaizhi nodded, and then asked,

"I heard from the housekeeper that you just graduated from college, which school did you attend?"

Chen Mingxi responded with a smile, "I am in Haizhou Normal School, and I am studying education. ”

"Okay, you go down."

The door closed as the voice spoke, and Chen Mingxi stood in place, replaying the scene just now over and over again in his mind, until he confirmed that he had behaved impeccably, and then turned around and went downstairs.

The people in the door naturally didn't know what the outsiders were thinking, and they were still stuck in the stalemate just now.

Gu Huaizhi handed the bowl to Gu Yufei's hand,

"Eat supper first."

"I don't eat it!" Gu Yufei pushed the bowl away, and her words gradually choked up, "What do you mean when you just asked her where she graduated?" Why can anyone, only Sister Nanxing can't. You clearly said that Sister Nanxing went abroad for further study, and when she came back, she would continue to teach me, and now that she is back, why don't you come to her? You...... Deceitful! ”

Gu Huaizhi was silent, and his face became more and more ugly.

Gu Yufei looked at him without letting go with tears in her eyes.

The irritability in his heart was gradually amplified, Gu Huaizhi put the bowl on the low table on the side, and the bottom of the bowl and the glass panel made a bang, the sound was not too loud, but it was enough to make Gu Yufei stop crying,

"Gu Yufei, asking you for a tutor is just one of the ways for you to learn, and it is not a reason for you to bargain with your elders. If you feel that any of the home teachers are not as good as you, then tomorrow I will arrange for someone to register you and go to a public school. ”

Hearing the words public school, Gu Yufei pursed her lips and shed tears, and after a while, the gray velvet blanket on her leg became wet.

After being anxious for a while, Gu Huaizhi finally couldn't bear it, and sighed slowly,

"Okay, stop crying. If you don't like this teacher, then change it. ”

"You...... Why...... Can't let Sister Nanxing come back? ”

Gu Yufei's eyes were red, and she gradually began to cry.

Her current appearance reminded Gu Huaizhi of when she was a child, in order to teach her the rules, he took away a doll rabbit that she had to hold every night when she fell asleep, and she was also crying like this at that time.

Sighing slowly, he patiently coaxed,

"I promise you, as long as your homework is straight A's this semester, I will take you to meet her."

"Really?"

"Really."

One big and one small finally shook hands and made peace, and ate supper quietly.

After coaxing Gu Yufei to sleep, Gu Huaizhi went back to his room.

I took a shower, but I didn't feel sleepy. He pushed open the floor-to-ceiling window, and the wind swept in the rain in a fine and dense manner, which was damp and entangled in people's hearts.

put on a bathrobe and went downstairs, went to the wine cellar to find the red wine that Lu Xiao gave him last time, and I don't know which layer was received by the nanny, and I didn't find it after a few trips.

"Mr. Gu, what are you looking for? I'll help you. ”

Midnight terror, there was a girl's murmuring voice, Gu Huaizhi turned around.

Chen Mingxi was dressed in a nightgown and wrapped in a big sweater, standing quietly by the door of the wine cellar.

His gaze swept over her bare calves and then to her face, and the girl looked calm, as if she was just trying to help him find a drink.

Gu Huaizhi looked away, hooked the corners of his lips, and refused, "No, thank you." Then he picked a bottle of wine and left.

Passing by, there was a faint fragrance of orange peel permeating the surroundings, Gu Huaizhi stopped, turned his head sideways and asked,

"Do you know Shen Ruzhen?"

Chen Mingxi suppressed the consternation in his heart and replied with a calm face,

"I don't know."

"Okay."

The words fell, and the aura that belonged to him gradually dissipated.

The tall and long back gradually disappeared from sight, and Chen Mingxi stroked it to his chest, where it was beating violently and uneasily.

Gu Huaizhi carried the wine to the terrace.

The cool breeze hit, as if blowing away the chaos in my head.

He took out the phone from the pocket of his bathrobe and dialed it, and when the phone was connected, Lu Xiao's angry voice came,

"Gu Huaizhi, do you have an enmity with me? What time is it? I ......"

"Less nonsense." Gu Huaizhi heard a woman's voice on the other side of the phone, interrupted him and asked, "Has Shen Ruzhen returned to China yet?" ”

"That's your fiancée, you ask me? There's nothing else, I'm hanging up. ”

"Inbonai ......"

Before Gu Huaizhi finished speaking, Lu Xiao on the other side of the phone immediately said, "It's back, he mentioned it when I played golf with Zhiyu a few days ago." ”

"Got it."

"Hey, let's talk about the agency ...... Inborone"

"It's not too early, we'll talk about it another day."

"Gu Huaizhi, you use people to move forward, don't need people to ......"

Lu Xiao was still babbling something over there, but he was not in the mood to accompany him today, and he already knew what he wanted to know, so he raised his hand and cut off the phone.

The night is thick, and the raindrops hit the monstera in the corner, making a regular sound.

Gu Huaizhi raised his head and drank the wine in the cup, looking into the distance, what was in his mind gradually fermented and swelled in this rainy night, and finally exploded with a bang.

- Young girl

- Tutor

and Shen Ruzhen, who suddenly returned to China.

It was Xu Nanxing before, and now there is another Chen Mingxi, different people, similar tricks.

Gu Huaizhi sneered, and he was really persevering.

Some things that seem to have been sealed in the mind seem to come out all at once, forcing people to think about them.

Such a beautiful night is also lingering like this night, Xu Nanxing's beautiful and strong eyebrows seem to be right in front of him, her soft palm is tightly pressed against his chest, her arm is clinging to his arm, and she softly calls his name in his arms.

A hint of heat gradually spreads from a certain part of the body.

He raised his hand and looked at his fingertips, where it seemed that the body temperature that had been hugged by her was still there, but her suppressed cry and hasty face echoed in his ears.

He knew her purpose, but he allowed her to approach him step by step.

-

Xu Nanxing woke up in his sleep, his face was damp, and he glanced at his phone, four o'clock in the morning.

After grabbing a few tissues and wiping the tears from her face, she rolled over and closed her eyes.

The scene in the dream was surging in his mind, Gu Huaizhi's eyebrows kept flashing in front of him, his body was obviously tired and sleepy, but the depths of his brain were still active, tossing and turning.

In the fog, she seemed to see the man standing at the head of the bed, she wanted to open her mouth to say something, but she found that she couldn't make a sound, and wanted to reach out to pull his sleeve, obviously raised her hand, but in the blurred vision saw that her hand was still on the pillow.

It wasn't until the sound of a bell ringing in her ears that she gradually woke up.

It turned out to be a nightmare.

I touched the phone and picked it up,

"Hey."

"Nanxing, last night's dress and jewelry were brought to the company today, and I want to return them to the studio. Come early! ”

It was Liu Lili who reminded her to return the dress she wore last night.

Xu Nanxing glanced at the dress at the end of the bed, and said vaguely, "Got it, I'll send it to the company today." ”

Hung up the phone, purred to the other side of the bed, wrapped himself tightly, so that he seemed to have a sense of security, and just fell asleep in a daze, he heard his sister calling her in the living room,

"Nanxing, is it up? Breakfast is ready, let's go out to eat when we get up. ”

Lai was awake in bed for a few seconds before she answered,

"Right away."

Hastily washed up and went out, Xu Xianglan had already served breakfast to the table.

The simple steamed eggs, as well as the seafood porridge left over from last night, accompanied by a plate of pickles, made Xu Nanxing gurt in his stomach. Last night, she had something on her mind, she hastily drank two mouthfuls of porridge and washed and fell asleep, and her stomach was really hungry.

pinched a mouthful of pickles into her mouth, Xu Xianglan slid over from the kitchen with a bowl and patted her,

"Serve porridge and drink, be careful that it will make your throat uncomfortable. Isn't there an audition today? ”

Xu Nanxing patted his head, and then remembered that he complained that Liu Lili had just asked her to go to the company earlier.

Liu Lili gave her an audition a while ago, which is said to be a big-budget film invested by Boya Pictures. Although she is a female No. 3, she has a lot of scenes, and she is also an important role. I heard that many actresses who are already famous also want to compete for this role, and Boya Pictures held an audition, which made the whole circle boiling, but it seems that few were selected in the end.

Only she and Lin Qingying were selected in the company.

After eating, Xu Nanxing went back to the room to change his clothes, sorted out the dress he wore last night, and found that an earring was missing when he cleaned up the accessories.

She remembered that she had taken it off and put it in her handbag last night, but she opened her handbag and checked it over and over again, and even took out the inside bag and shook it off a few times, but it still didn't happen.

Last night's GALA was a charity dinner led by Boya Pictures, because it is a relatively well-known GALA in the industry, many designers are looking forward to their works showing their faces on such an occasion, so as soon as I heard that it was to participate in the Boya Charity Dinner, even unknown young actors like Xu Nanxing were sponsored.

Xu Nanxing remembered the earrings, although they looked simple, she recognized that they were Kong Kezhu, and they were a rare flamingo color, with fine flame patterns on them.

At that time, she was putting on makeup, Liu Lili stood next to her and babbled to her about the origin of the earrings, she deliberately looked at it twice, it was really good-looking, and the small pair of earrings exuded the smell of money.

If you lose an earring, you can't match it, and you naturally lose its original value.

Xu Nanxing thought about the price Liu Lili said at the time, it seemed to be 50,000 or 80,000?

She wailed in her heart, no matter how tens of thousands of dollars were a huge amount of money for her.

Xu Xianglan heard her crackling rummaging sound, and shook her wheelchair over,

"What's wrong?"

Xu Nanxing got up and went to the living room and kitchen, looking for it as he walked, "Sister, did you see a pink pearl earring in the house this morning?" ”

"Nope." Xu Xianglan went out with her and helped her find her.

Nowhere else.

Xu Nanxing recalled the route he had passed last night, and his heart suddenly moved, and a possibility flashed.
