Chapter 31(1/2)
Chen Mingmo was quite dissatisfied with his perfunctory behavior. He glanced at the name of the person on the paper and said nothing.
Both the father and son are not talkative people, so they calmed down after they finished their business.
After a while, Chen Mingmo glanced at Chen Mubai, "Have you had something happened to you recently?"
Chen Mubai was a little confused, and he suddenly asked and said subconsciously, "What's the matter?"
Chen Mingmo just felt that there was some change between Chen Mubai's eyebrows, and he couldn't say anything, "It's nothing, it's up to you to be absent-minded."
Chen Mubai was indeed a little absent-minded, leaning lazily on the back of the chair, and answered half-truely, "It's probably the end of the year. I've been tired for a year, so it's time to take a break."
Chen Mingmo nodded, and Meng Yinian knocked in and reminded him that it was time to leave.
Chen Mingmo stood up and asked while tidying up his clothes, "Are you still not coming back for the New Year this year?"
Chen Mubai also stood up and was about to leave. He laughed at this, "Will you quarrel for you when you come back? You still have fewer views on weekdays? It's a big day, so I won't make things difficult for you, after all..."
Chen Mubai turned his head and looked at Chen Mingmo from top to bottom for a few seconds, "After all, it's been one year or another."
Chen Mingmo's hands tidying up his collar trembled significantly, and then walked out steadily as if unheard of it.
Chen Mubai raised his eyebrows and watched his back disappear, then slowly walked out.
Halfway through, he actually saw Chen Muxiao and his wife. Chen Muxiao rarely came back since he got married.
"Why are you here?"
Chen Muxiao's belly was already a little obvious, and the man next to her carefully hugged her, "The old man said that I have been married for so long and have not come back to live. It's too deserted to live here by himself. I have someone to pick me up and stay for two days, and then I'll leave."
Chen Mubai found it funny, "He is afraid of being lonely? This place is so yin, and you dare to come back while pregnant, aren't you afraid of him having other purposes?"
Chen Muxiao nodded in a clear way, "It does have other purposes."
After saying that, he turned to the man beside him and said, "Go and see if the car is coming."
Chen Muxiao sent her husband away and smiled at Chen Mubai, "Have you seen Shu Hua?"
Chen Mubai paused, "Who?"
When Chen Muxiao saw Chen Mubai's confused look on his face, he immediately knew that he was talking too much. He lowered his head and coughed, "It's nothing."
Chen Mubai is already cold and has deep and narrow eyes. He is particularly lonely and arrogant when he doesn't speak, even Chen Muxiao can't resist it.
She sighed, "Oh, I thought you already know, but you didn't know after so long, and Gu Jiusi hadn't told you yet?"
A few minutes later, Chen Mubai got into the car with a bad face, and Chen Muxiao's explanation echoed in his ears.
The Shu family, the baby kiss, Gu Jiusi had known it for a long time.
Chen Mubai sneered. A few keywords were enough to make him understand what kind of scene this was.
Gu Jiusi stayed at home for a long time, and by chance he looked at the calendar, he realized that the Chinese New Year was coming. He turned to look out the window, and the sun was shining. After thinking about it, he went out.
It is almost the end of the New Year, and there is a festive atmosphere on the street. Discounted billboards have been hung in major shopping malls, and people are crowded with people. Couples with sweet smiles, happy family, or groups of young students wearing school uniforms in groups, Gu Jiusi is walking among the crowd and is in a good mood.
Actually, she still likes this kind of excitement.
Every year, she would buy New Year's gifts for Chen Mubai and Chen Jingkang. Chen Fang and Chen Jingkang are easy to talk about. The most difficult thing is Chen Mubai. Gu Jiusi walked around the mall several times, but he didn't find a gift that could catch the eyes of the young master.
Just as I was worried, I heard someone calling her behind me, but when I turned around, I saw Shu Hua running towards her, carrying a big bag in my hand.
She was young and grew up carefree. She was bright and radiant when she smiled, as dazzling as the sunshine shining in from the huge floor-to-ceiling windows of the mall, making Gu Jiusi feel a little inferior.
Shu Hua came over with a smile, "Sister Gu, are you here to go shopping too?"
Gu Jiusi nodded with a smile.
Although Shu Hua had swept around, she obviously hadn't been able to walk around for enough. She pulled Gu Jiusi upstairs and said as she walked, "I haven't gone upstairs yet. Let's go and have a look together."
Gu Jiusi grabbed her and said, "I won't go shopping anymore. Let's go to the top-floor cafe to sit for a while. I have something to tell you."
At this time of year, Chen Mubai would take a group of employees of the company to take a hot spring on a mountain not far from here, which is a reward for everyone's hard work for a year, and it should be these two days.
She told Shu Hua about the time and place. The eldest lady of the Shu family was indeed smart and could be seen at a glance.
It’s not only Chen Mubai who can go to the hot springs on the mountain. I met them by chance. Isn’t it blamed her?
Gu Jiusi thought about it and there was only this opportunity.
She promised Chen Mingmo about this and promised Shu Hua, not to mention that she is still living under someone else's roof. She thought of being a monk and hitting the clock for a day, and did this, as an explanation for everyone.
In her opinion, the combination of Chen Mubai and Shu Hua is not a bad thing, but the benefits outweigh the disadvantages.
She is happy to see it happen.
This matter has been under her heart, and now it has finally been resolved. She did not feel relieved, but instead felt a little uneasy.
Shu Hua was much more excited than her. She pulled her to ask many questions, but she answered them all in a mess.
"Sister Gu, is there anything he...is just a bottom line that others cannot touch?"
Shu Hua's cheeks were pink and red, with the shyness of a child. Instead of calling Chen Mubai the name, he used the word "he" with a longing for the beautiful love that was about to begin.
Gu Jiusi thought for a while and looked up and asked, "Is it a morbidity to be a morbid?"
Shu Hua nodded vigorously, "Think! Thumb!"
Then he frowned and asked, "Is it serious?"
Gu Jiusi's mind immediately popped up, "It has reached the point where almost perverted people and gods are incurable indignation", but only these words can be considered. She quickly answered extremely officially, "Everyone has different standards, you will know when you contact it."
"What else?"
"And..." Gu Jiusi realized that she actually didn't understand Chen Mubai. Or she knew Chen Mubai too much, and his little bits had penetrated into her life. She had summed it up for a while, but she couldn't say a word. All the things flashed through her mind were fragments of life.
Just when she was worried, Shu Hua's cell phone ringtone saved her.
Gu Jiusi looked at Shu Hua and went to answer the phone, breathing a sigh of relief.
The next second my phone started to vibrate, and unfamiliar numbers kept flashing on the screen.
Gu Jiu thought about it and wanted to pick it up, "Hello, who can you ask?"
There seemed to pause for a moment before speaking in Gu Jiusi's tone, "Hello, I'm Duan Jingxi."
Gu Jiusi was stunned. She never thought that she and Duan Jingxi would have another intersection. Why did he call him? Thank her for taking care of his niece? You will know so soon?
With doubts, Gu Jiusi turned her head and looked at Shu Hua not far away. She was smiling and saying something.
Duan Jingxi waited for a long time without any movement, so he called her tentatively, "Ms. Gu?"
Gu Jiusi quickly came back to his senses, "Sorry, my signal seems to be not very good. Prince Duan has something to come to me?"
Duan Jingxi's voice came along the radio waves, still gentle and elegant, "Last time, Miss Gu seemed to have dropped the buttons of the coat into my car. I remember that the coat was handmade. If the buttons were lost, it would be difficult to match. If it was convenient, I'll send it to you?"
The tone of inquiry and the wording was extremely polite, but Gu Jiu thought of rejecting it for no reason.
She found out that she had lost the button early in the morning and suspected that she had fallen into Duan Jingxi's car, but she never planned to get it back.
"Uh..." Gu Jiu thought for a while. It would be too rude to say that "Just find someone to send it to me."
When the words came to my mouth, I swallowed it, "You don't have to bother Prince Duan to go there personally. Where are you? I'll go over and pick it up."
Duan Jingxi talked about a place, which was not very far from here.
Not long after hanging up the phone, Shu Hua came back. Gu Jiusi looked at her smiling face and silently complained in her heart.
My uncle and your nephew are really destined to be together.
Gu Jiusi was not used to letting others wait, so she hurried to the appointment place and looked around but didn't see Duan Jingxi before she breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, Chen Muxiao once told her that her behavior is to protect herself subconsciously and not want to owe others what she wants. She is afraid that she will not be able to repay, so she takes the initiative, but invisibly pushes people far away. This is not good.
Gu Jiusi took a seat by the window and sat down for a while. When she turned around, she saw Duan Jingxi walking out of the car, dressed properly and walked steadily, as if she was walking out of the textbook.
Gu Jiusi counted his steps silently. After Duan Jingxi sat down opposite her, she suddenly spoke, "How many steps do you think it will take to get out of the car and walk here?"
Duan Jingxi didn't know why she asked this, but she still carefully measured the distance and gave an answer, "228 steps?"
Gu Jiusi couldn't help but applaud him in his heart, "You did walk 228 steps."
After saying that, he picked up the teacup and pretended to drink tea, covering the corners of his curled lips, only revealing a pair of clear and flowing eyes, which made Duan Jingxi slightly lose his mind.
It is worthy of being the one who fought with Chen Mingmo and Chen Mubai. Duan Jingxi lowered his expression and lowered his eyes to look at the liquid floating in his cup, and even curled the corners of his lips.
After a while, Duan Jingxi raised her head and could still see a smile in Gu Jiusi's eyes. He also laughed, "Is there any problem with the 228 steps?"
Gu Jiusi lowered his head and replied vaguely, "There is no problem with the 228 steps itself, the one with the problem is you. Normal people can at most give a similar range, but you can actually give the correct answer."
Duan Jingxi knew that he was teased again, and smiled bitterly and admitted, "Yes, I have trained my steps and can accurately take the same distance every step."
Gu Jiusi pursed her lips. She didn't know why. Every time she saw Duan Jingxi, she always felt that this man was a bit too perfect and wanted to pick the bones in the eggs.
She coughed, "Where is that... button?"
Duan Jingxi took it out and handed it to her, and then saw her reach out to take it with her left hand.
The information flashed through his mind again, and he suddenly felt that her movements were a little dazzling and frowned.
