Chapter 24(1/2)

Gu Jiusi looked at him with a confused look on his face and smiled and joked to break the deadlock. "I have seen your press conference as the spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. At that time, Prince Duan was full of energy and was not such a bad person."

Duan Jingxi seemed to have no idea what expression to put on. After a long time, he looked at Gu Jiusi with a wry smile, "Why does the half-life experience I am proud of seems so sad to you? I probably don't have to sleep tonight, I have to think about my life carefully."

Gu Jiusi lowered his head and silently confessed in his heart. Gu Jiusi, Gu Jiusi, you bite him back after helping you. Are you a snake? Is it uncomfortable if you don’t attack people?

When he raised his head again, Gu Jiusi had a very official smile on his face, "Prince Duan is so arrogant that your height is not something that anyone can reach."

Duan Jingxi immediately noticed the change in Gu Jiusi's mood. She seemed to have become what they looked like when they first met, drawing a clear boundary between them, polite but alienated.

Duan Jingxi turned to look at her with sincere eyes, "Did I say something wrong?"

Gu Jiusi adjusted his sitting posture and moved away from Duan Jingxi without moving, and his tone became more and more polite, "No, you don't have to be so polite. You are at a high position. Mr. Chen specifically told him to be polite to you and Miss Shu. I was abrupt just now, so please forgive me."

Duan Jingxi felt a little disappointed. Compared to Gu Jiusi, who kept a distance from him and was very respectful to him, he still liked Gu Jiusi, who just regarded him as an ordinary person. He was not short of respect and even flattering people around him. He thought he had been used to it, but at this moment he suddenly realized what it is to be so cold that he could not bear to the point of being high.

For a moment, both of them stopped talking until the car stopped and the baffle fell down. The secretary turned his head and whispered, "Ms. Gu, we're here."

Gu Jiusi smiled and said goodbye to Duan Jingxi, "Thank you today, I'll leave first."

Duan Jingxi handed over the bag at hand, "I should thank you. I got along very well with Miss Gu today. Miss Gu is a person who is very clear about things. Chatting with you has taught me to look at problems from a special perspective and benefit a lot."

Gu Jiusi lowered his eyes and smiled, then opened the car door and prepared to get off the car. He heard the sound behind him and turned his head to call Duan Jingxi, who was also planning to get off the car, "No need to send it away, I'll just go back by myself."

Duan Jingxi insisted, "It should be."

Gu Jiusi suddenly stopped moving. After looking at him for a long time, he slowly laughed, "There are very few men like this gentleman now. Your kindness and thoughtfulness always make me feel that all this is your usual training content. It feels very strange. Are you tired?"

Duan Jingxi was stunned when he heard this.

"Actually what I want to say is..." Gu Jiusi suddenly looked down and looked at Duan Jingxi with a blank expression, "I don't want others to see that we have contact with you and me."

After saying that, he opened the door and got out of the car and left without looking back.

Duan Jingxi remembered her words just now, "I can't even care about myself." The initial discomfort in her heart seemed to be a little deeper. He always thought that such a young girl could be smart enough in the Chen family, but now he knows it's not.

She is not smart, she knows how to survive.

Duan Jingxi looked at the back gradually blending into the night before retracting her gaze, saying lightly, "Drive."

Gu Jiusi's "you" and "you" change from time to time made Duan Jingxi feel more and more interesting the more he thought about it. His chuckle suddenly sounded in the quiet carriage.

The driver and the secretary looked at each other silently and continued to remain silent.

Duan Jingxi took the initiative to speak, as if she was really confused, "Am I being fooled today?"

The secretary was with him for many years. He was a loyal and obedient person who was just a rude person. "Duanbu, she was a tutor from the Chen family. She was the most cunning and cunning. She didn't know any conspiracy. She just wanted to attract your attention. Don't be fooled."

Duan Jingxi looked at him with a smile and repeated, "Attract my attention?"

The secretary was a little disgusted, "You are so busy at work, of course I don't know that some girls nowadays don't respect themselves or love themselves. They like to get something for nothing, and use unexpected methods to attract men's attention, so as to enjoy the fruits."

Duan Jingxi breathed a little unhappy, "Why are you making a mistake with Shu Hua now? What can I have to covet others? Is it superficial for others or are you superficial?"

The secretary knew that he had touched Duan Jingxi's bottom line, so he lowered his head in disappointment and remained silent.

Duan Jingxi's tone suddenly eased a little, and she looked at the scenery that was constantly regressing outside the window and felt thoughtful, "But you have something right. She really attracted my attention. This girl...is quite interesting."

He was born in a diplomatic family, and most of his relatives were in the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, so he valued etiquette the most. He grew up in such an environment and all his behaviors were bound. He was used to it as standardized like this textbook. Others always praised him for being respectful and polite, but no one ever asked him if he was tired.

No one mentioned it and he didn't realize it at all, but when someone suddenly came out and asked him, he actually felt it.

He was waiting for this person to appear, waiting for this person to ask him, and he could answer, he was really tired.

Gu Jiusi saw the black car slowly sliding out before walking out of the corner. After looking around, she looked around and found nothing before she continued to move forward.

Her life is full of too many people and things, and it is complicated. She doesn't want to cause any trouble because of accidental people.

After Gu Jiusi approached, he found that there was a car parked in front of the building that had not been seen for a long time.

She raised her hand and looked at the time. She didn't go out for long. She obviously didn't have it before she left the door. She touched the front cover of the car, and there was still warmth. It seemed that she had just arrived.

There are no people in this villa usually, there is only a janitor and a servant in charge of cleaning. This slutty car appeared here, and Chen Jingkang must have not followed him. Gu Jiusi didn't know whether these two people could serve the master.

When I entered the door, I saw Chen Mubai lying lazily on the sofa, with his long legs on a low stool watching the TV without a glance, as if he was bored. There were two people trembling in the distance, and seeing Gu Jiusi both looked relieved.

Gu Jiusi found it funny, it seemed that she had already made trouble. She made a gesture, and the two of them immediately escaped in panic.

Chen Mubai looked up at Gu Jiusi and then turned his gaze back to the TV screen, and spoke sarcastically, "Do you just like going out on snowy days?"

She hadn't seen Chen Mubai for a long time, and when she saw him again, she actually felt a little ridiculous. He looked like a tantrum.

Gu Jiusi blinked, "Go out and buy something."

Chen Mubai looked at her again, then his eyes remained on the bag in her hand, and suddenly reached out, "Take it and see it."

Gu Jiusi is sure and sure that Chen Mubai is really bored. He doesn't care about these things in his daily life.

Gu Jiusi grabbed the bag tighter, "Nothing special."

Seeing Chen Mubai's obvious frowning, he added, "It's all things that women use."

Chen Mubai withdrew his hand that had been stretched out for a long time, looked at her up and down, lowered his eyes and thought for a while, then looked at her up and down, and then spoke with some uncertainty, "You are not doing this right day."

Gu Jiusi closed her eyes and took a deep breath, feeling that she was on the verge of collapse.

Chen Mubai, how boring, are you?

Chen Mubai raised his chin and said, "If you feel uncomfortable, don't stand and sit."

Gu Jiusi felt that Chen Mubai seemed particularly easy to talk tonight, away from the hustle and bustle of the city, and he seemed not that difficult to get along with.

No matter how open she was, she was not at the point of discussing such a private topic with a man. She endured and began to change the topic, and asked with great concern, "Why did Mr. Mu arrive so late?"

Chen Mubai's expression suddenly became a little complicated, "I went out after dinner."

Gu Jiusi looked at him and spoke tentatively, "I heard... the expressway is closed?"

Chen Mubai withdrew his gaze, picked up the TV remote control at hand and looked through it carefully, and replied casually, "Uh... I didn't block it when I left."

Gu Jiusi felt strange, "Then I should have got off the expressway long ago. It is not far from the expressway entrance. Why did you arrive so long?"

After playing with the remote control, Chen Mubai started watching TV seriously again, "It's dark, I'm driving slowly."

Gu Jiusi approached step by step and whispered to him, "It's time to leave."

Chen Mubai hesitated for a while and spoke in a difficult situation, "I... got lost and walked around for a long time before I found this place."

"..." Gu Jiusi gritted her teeth and sweared, and there was absolutely no smile on her face.

One was calm on the surface but actually laughed wildly in his heart, the other was calm on the surface to cover up his embarrassment, and no one of the two spoke again for a while.

Later, Gu Jiusi took the initiative to rescue the situation, "It's really not easy to find here. Mu Shao hasn't come for a long time, so it's normal that he can't find it. It's getting late, so let's get off early."

She now wants to go back to her room and hide in the quilt and laugh.

Chen Mubai turned off the TV and looked at her resentfully, "I haven't had supper yet."

Gu Jiusi stood up immediately, "I'll make what you want to eat."

Chen Mubai looked up at the ceiling and seemed to be thinking. Gu Jiusi had a bad premonition, and he would take the opportunity to make things difficult for him to avenge the previous one.

Chen Mubai thought for a long time, and every second Gu Jiusi said it was a torture. Her brain was running at high speed and thinking about how to deal with Chen Mubai.

After a while, Chen Mubai looked at her expressionlessly, "If you are not convenient, you don't need to do it anymore. I'm not hungry, just let them do it casually. You go and explain, I have something to tell you when I come back."

"Okay." Gu Jiusi agreed and went out quickly.

In fact, Gu Jiusi was a little nervous. She was guilty and had too many things hidden in her heart. She didn't know what Chen Mubai was going to say to her.

He knew Shu Hua had come?

Did he see Duan Jingxi send her back?

Or... the thing she has been waiting for?

When she came back, Chen Mubai was standing in front of the wide floor-to-ceiling window and admiring the snow scene. He didn't turn around when he heard the sound. His voice spoke calmly, "Tell me, this time you took everything on yourself and didn't let Chen Mingmo and Chen Muzhao doubt me. Why is it for taking such a big risk? Don't let me bear your love for no reason. I don't want to owe women."

Sure enough, Gu Jiusi felt relieved that he had not waited for so long, and was not in a hurry to express his purpose, "Aren't Mr. Mu angry?"

Chen Mubai looked at Gu Jiusi's reflection from the glass of the floor-to-ceiling window, "I was really angry at first, but I understood after thinking about it."

Gu Jiusi smiled and praised sincerely, "Mu Shao is a smart person."

Chen Mubai turned around and looked at Gu Jiusi with interest, "What do you want me to do, tell me."

Gu Jiusi lowered his eyes and thought for a long time before he raised his eyes and looked at Chen Mubai calmly, "I have a friend in the United States named Gu Cunzhi. I haven't heard of him for a long time. Can you help me check... check if he is still there?"

Chen Mubai is best at stimulating people, and asked without any taboos, "Do you check if he is still in the United States or is he in the world?"

Gu Jiusi closed his eyes and mustered up the courage to say those words, "Is it still in the world?"

Chen Mubai nodded and asked again, "Who is he you?"

Gu Jiusi was still the same rhetoric as before, "A friend."

Chen Mubai touched his chin and thought, "This name is a bit strange, and his surname is Gu, your relative?"

Gu Jiusi calmly shook his head and denied, "No, it just happened to be Gu's surname."

"Ah..." Chen Mubai glanced at her meaningfully, "That's really a coincidence."

Gu Jiusi was so guilty that she didn't respond.

Chen Mubai asked again, "Why didn't you tell me directly that you had to go around such a big circle and let me come to you."
