Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 160 Engagement
Gu Shi'an woke up after [-] o'clock in the middle of the night. The lights in the ward were turned off, only the dim light in the corner, accompanied by the crisp sound of typing on the keyboard.

Her mind was a little confused for a while, but it took a while to realize that Chen Xiao was still processing work.

She drank too much water before going to bed, she got out of bed without saying a word, and was going to the bathroom when the lights in the ward turned on.

Her eyes were not used to it, and she looked at Chen Xiao after a few seconds.Chen Xiao over there was still typing on the keyboard, as if he wasn't the one who turned on the light.

Gu Shi'an didn't say anything, and went to the bathroom.When she came back, Chen Xiao had already turned off the computer, and she ignored him, lying on the bed and closing her eyes again.

She had already woken up once, and she thought she would not be able to fall asleep.Who knew that after closing his eyes, he fell asleep again in a daze.

Before the whole person fell asleep, he felt that someone had gone to bed.Before Gu Shi'an's dazed mind could react, he was hugged tightly in his arms.

She woke up all of a sudden, and when she was about to struggle, a voice came from her ear: "Don't touch my wife, it's raining, I'm here specially to warm your bed."

Chen Xiao's voice was a little smiling, and the hot air he exhaled went straight into Gu Shi'an's ears.

Gu Shi'an's body was very stiff, and he said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you, I'm not cold. Are you going down or I going down?"

Chen Xiao laughed again and said, "Daughter-in-law, don't be so serious. It's not that I haven't slept together before, I promise I won't do anything."

As he said, the hands around Gu Shi'an's waist held her tightly, obviously he was going to lie on the bed.

Gu Shi'an pursed his lips and said nothing.

Chen Xiao was very witty, and quickly let go of Gu Shi'an, saying: "Daughter-in-law, don't be angry, I'll sleep over there."

He got out of bed and slept on another bed.

Gu Shi'an didn't say a word, but closed his eyes.Just now she was able to sleep clearly, but after Chen Xiao's troubles, she lost sleepiness at all, and lay on the bed for a long time unable to fall asleep.

On the other hand, Chen Xiao on the bed seemed to be asleep, without making any sound.

The ward was quiet, Gu Shi'an lay with his eyes open for a while, and then fell asleep in a daze.

When I woke up the next day, when I opened my eyes, there was a magnified handsome face in front of me.Her mind was confused and she didn't react for a while.After she reacted, she immediately sat up from the bed, pursed her lips and asked, "When did you come up?"

Although Chen Xiao was sleepy, he soon woke up.Sitting up lazily, he said with an innocent face, "I came here to warm your quilt last night because you were crying in the middle of the night."

What he said was completely unreliable, and instead of lying on the bed, he got up, yawned and went to the bathroom as if nothing had happened.

Gu Shi'an gritted his teeth, but in the end he swallowed all his anger.

Her fever has completely subsided, and she has to go to work at Gu's on Monday, so she can't stay in the hospital anymore.After getting up to wash up, she ignored Chen Xiao and went straight to the doctor for discharge procedures.

It was less than eight o'clock at this time, and the doctor hadn't gone to work yet.The nurse told her to come back after the attending doctor came.

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to go back and wait.

When she went to the nurse's station, Chen Xiao had already bought breakfast and came back.Putting down the porridge in his hand, he said, "The doctor said to eat something light."

Gu Shi'an did not refuse, took the porridge and ate it.

Before he finished a bowl of porridge, Chen Xiao's cell phone rang.He didn't know who made the call, so he took it out and looked at it, but he didn't answer it.

The phone call never came back.Waiting for Gu Shian to finish his porridge, there was a knock on the door of the ward.

Not knowing if the doctor came, Gu Shi'an stepped forward and opened the door.

The person standing outside the door was not a doctor, but Li Ran with delicate makeup.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect it to be her at all, so he was slightly taken aback.

With a decent smile on Li Ran's face, he said, "I'm sorry Shi'an, I came to disturb you so early. I have something to come over to find Chen Xiao."

Apologetic expressions appeared on her face at the right time.

Gu Shi'an smiled lightly and said, "Senior Sister Li, you are welcome, come in."

While the two were talking, Chen Xiao had already walked out.He was not surprised to see Li Ran.

A bit of unease appeared on Li Ran's face at the moment, and he said, "Sorry, I came so early..."

Before she finished speaking, Chen Xiao said, "Let's go."

He said and went straight out.Li Ran smiled and said some polite words to Gu Shi'an before leaving with Chen Xiao.

The two of them didn't know what they were going to talk about, and their figures quickly disappeared into the corridor.Gu Shi'an was slightly in a daze, and then went back to the ward.

The doctor didn't come over for a long time, she packed her things, and stood at the window of the ward looking outside in a daze.

The weather has been bad in the past few days, and it is still drizzling outside at the moment.Probably because of the gloomy weather, her heart felt empty.

Chen Xiao didn't come back after going there, and the doctor came to make rounds soon.Gu Shi'an proposed to be discharged from the hospital.She was fine at first, and the doctor asked her to go through the discharge procedures after an examination.

Probably because it was still early and there were not many people.Gu Shi'an quickly completed the discharge procedures.When she came, she was unconscious and did not bring anything.He also left empty-handed.Chen Xiao's things were still in the ward, she didn't take them away, she left a phone call to the nurse, saying that if no one came back later, she would call Assistant Sun and ask him to come and get the things.

It was raining on the mountain and Gu Shi'an's cell phone was broken. No one called, but now it was very clean. She sent the cell phone to be repaired first, and then borrowed the cell phone to call Chang Yu and told her that she had been discharged from the hospital.Chang Wei was probably worried that she would be too lazy to cook alone, so she asked her to go to the store.

Gu Shi'an thought for a while and agreed, and went to the store by car.

The store is busy at noon, and she usually doesn't ask for her help, so I get her something to eat and let her go to rest.

They were all busy with Gu Shi'an, who would not rest alone, and helped with some simple things.I didn't go to rest until noon when there was no one else.

She was originally going to help in the store in the afternoon, but Chang would not ask her to help anymore, and drove her back after five o'clock.

I haven't been home for a few days, and the house is deserted.Gu Shi'an had nothing to do, cleaned up, and then lay down on the bed with his head covered.

She was woken up by the knock on the door. At first she thought it was the knock on the door next door, but when the knock kept ringing, she got up and went to the living room, only then did she realize that it was the knock on her own door.

I don't know who is so persistent and knocked for so long.

She yawned and opened the door, and the person standing outside the door was none other than Chen Xiao.He carried something in his hand, probably food.

He didn't mention the fact that he knocked on the door for a long time, frowned slightly, and asked: "Still sleeping?" He didn't wait for Gu Shi'an to answer, and asked again: "Have you eaten?"

He has been knocking on the door for a long time, so standing in the corridor and talking again is undoubtedly attracting attention.She let him in sideways, and then asked, "What are you doing here?"

"Of course I came to see you, my wife." Chen Xiao replied innocently.

He didn't mention the fact that Gu Shi'an was discharged from the hospital himself, he put the food he brought on the dining table and said, "Come and eat."

When Gu Shi'an came back, he ate in the restaurant, didn't speak, and didn't care how Chen Xiao tossed about, just sat on the sofa and watched TV.

Chen Xiao quickly walked over and asked, "What, no appetite? What do you want to eat, I'll send someone over."

He didn't know what he wanted to do like this.

Gu Shi'an immediately replied, "I've already eaten."

Chen Xiao didn't speak for a moment, but after a while he suddenly chuckled and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you angry?"

"You think too much." Gu Shi'an replied without thinking.

The smile on Chen Xiao's lips deepened, he turned around and took the porridge from the dining table, and said, "If you are not angry, eat something, this is what Aunt Ye cooked for you when I went back to the old house. Brought it here. She also let you go over for dinner next weekend when you are free."

Gu Shi'an didn't say a word.

Chen Xiao stirred the porridge with a spoon, raised his eyebrows when Gu Shian didn't speak, and said with a low smile, "Daughter-in-law, do you want me to feed you?"

As he spoke, he scooped up the porridge with a spoon.

This porridge was specially made by Ye Qing. Gu Shi'an wanted to eat something anyway, she took the bowl from Chen Xiao's hand and said, "I'll do it myself."

Chen Xiao smiled and gave her the bowl.

She had eaten before, but now she ate a bowl and didn't eat any more.

Chen Xiao ate the rest of the porridge alone, and went to the kitchen to wash the dishes for the first time.

Gu Shi'an ignored him, waited for him to come out of the kitchen, then pursed his lips and asked, "When are you going back?"

Chen Xiao said casually, "Didn't it be agreed last time that I would stay here for a few days?"

Gu Shi'an said coldly at this moment: "Last time you said that you will go back after finishing the matter."

"That's right." Chen Xiao nodded, put on an innocent look, and said, "But the matter is not finished yet. Of course I have to stay."

The way he is now, it doesn't look like he still has things to deal with.Gu Shi'an didn't believe his words at all, endured it again and again, and asked: "Is there anything you haven't finished?"

Chen Xiao said solemnly: "There are too many unfinished business." When he said this, he suddenly smiled, looked at Gu Shi'an with his narrow and dark eyes, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, what are you afraid of? "

His eyes were deep and bottomless.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect him to ask such a sentence, he came back to his senses, and immediately said, "I'm not afraid of anything."

She met Chen Xiao's gaze.

Chen Xiao smiled softly, and said: "That's fine. Since you are not afraid of anything, daughter-in-law, it won't matter if you let me stay for a few days." After a slight pause, he continued: "I It’s a little difficult to settle accounts with them, and you can see how many people they have. I’ll go back when the matter is settled.”

He didn't mention it when he came back.

Gu Shi'an was silent for a while, and asked, "What's going on?"

How could Chen Xiao tell her, the corners of his lips curled up, and he said, "Daughter-in-law, I will take care of the outside affairs. If you feel sorry for me, you can make more soup to nourish my body."

He said with a handsome face and approached Gu Shi'an, his voice was low and ambiguous.

Gu Shi'an stepped back a little and ignored him.Go straight to the study.

In the living room, Chen Xiao yawned, took off his coat and went to the bathroom to wash up.

With Chen Xiao here, Gu Shi'an didn't want to go out, so he just stayed in the study.Chen Xiao didn't bother her, he was already asleep on the sofa when she came out of the study.

Gu Shi'an glanced at the sofa, paused a little, and went back to the room.

With Chen Xiao climbing into bed in the middle of the night last night, she did not forget to lock the door when she entered the bedroom.

Chen Xiao's phone was sent for repair for two days, but Gu Shi'an received a call from the after-sales service the next day, saying that the phone was repaired and asked her to go pick it up.

Although the mobile phone has entered water, it cannot be seen after repairing.It works the same as before.

My phone is broken and I can't see the missed calls, even the previous call records are empty.I don't know if the old lady has called in the past few days, but Gu Shi'an got the phone and called.

The old lady didn't find out that something happened when the two of them left that night, so she didn't ask anything.

Gu Shian breathed a sigh of relief, talked with the old lady for a while, and then hung up the phone.

In the afternoon, Qin Tang called and asked where she was.

Gu Shi'an felt a little guilty for some reason, so he replied that he was at home.

Qin Tang asked her to go out, saying that there was a reception and he couldn't find anyone for the time being, and asked her to accompany him to attend.

Gu Shi'an naturally wouldn't answer when he asked, so he answered, and then asked him what clothes he wanted to wear.

Qin Tang is quite casual about these things, saying that it is not formal, and she can wear whatever she wants.

Although he was allowed to wear anything, Gu Shi'an still dressed quite formally.Qin Tang should be nearby, so it didn't take long for him to call, so he asked Gu Shi'an to go downstairs, saying that he was already outside the community.

Gu Shi'an hurried downstairs, and when he reached the outside of the community, Qin Tang was leaning on the car and smoking a cigarette, and when he saw her, he stubbed out the cigarette.

I don't know if it's because of the last illness or something, but his face is still a little pale.Gu Shi'an stepped forward and called Mr. Qin, who nodded slightly, and then opened the car door for her.

Qin Tang didn't know if it was in a bad mood or something, but he said very little.

Gu Shi'an couldn't find anything to say for a while, until the car drove a certain distance, he asked tentatively: "Mr. Qin, where are we going?"

Only now did Qin Tang look sideways at her and said, "Over there in the city center."

Gu Shi'an nodded, but did not continue to ask the question to the bottom of the casserole.

She originally thought that Qin Tang didn't want to talk, but he then asked calmly: "Why can't I get through the phone these few days?"

It turned out that he had called in the past few days.

Gu Shi'an felt guilty now, and said, "It's broken, I just got it repaired today."

Qin Tang glanced at her, but didn't know whether to believe her or not, so he didn't speak.

Gu Shi'an breathed a sigh of relief quietly, and straightened his back even more.

When he arrived at Di'er, Qin Tang didn't speak again.

Said it was a reception, but Qin Tang just came here to go through the motions.After eight o'clock, I took Gu Shi'an and left.

He was in poor health and did not drink or eat at the reception.After sitting in the car, he raised his wrist to check the time and asked, "What do you want to eat?"

Gu Shi'an replied that he could eat whatever he wanted.

He was a little different from before, unusually silent.Gu Shi'an wanted to ask something, but he couldn't open his mouth several times.When she sat down at the dining place, she tentatively asked, "Mr. Qin, is there anything wrong with you?"

Qin Tang said lightly that it was all right.After a slight pause, he looked at Gu Shi'an and asked, "Where have you been these few days?"

Gu Shi'an didn't know why he asked this question, and replied with a guilty conscience: "I didn't go anywhere, just in the store and at home."

Qin Tang nodded and didn't speak any more.

He seemed to have something on his mind, even though he took Gu Shi'an out to eat, he ate with Gu Shi'an, and he rarely moved his chopsticks.

When Gu Shian was almost done eating, he said, "Lawyer Yu told me."

What he said was thoughtless, and Gu Shi'an didn't realize it for a while.It wasn't until he realized that he was talking about the divorce between her and Chen Xiao.

Without waiting for Gu Shian to speak, he asked again: "What are you going to do?"

When he said this, he looked at Gu Shi'an.As if watching her determination.

Gu Shi'an fell silent now.She is not Chen Xiao's opponent at all, and even now, she has no clue at all.

She didn't plan to hide Qin Tang about the divorce.He said in a low voice: "I haven't thought about it yet."

Qin Tang was not surprised when he heard this. He looked at her in silence for a long time, and then said: "If you make up your mind, leave this matter to lawyer Yu, and he will handle it for you."

His tone was understated.

Gu Shi'an was in a daze, he didn't know what he thought of, he nodded after a while, and said yes.

Speaking of these things, the atmosphere was undoubtedly a little depressing, but Qin Tang didn't stop there, and quickly changed the topic.

It was less than ten o'clock after the meal, Gu Shi'an originally wanted to go back by himself, but Qin Tang refused and drove her back.

Gu Shi'an got off the car at the gate of the community, waited for Qin Tang's car to drive away, and then walked slowly back to the community.

When she reached the downstairs of the community, she stopped, sat down on the edge of the flower bed and started to be dazed.After a long time, remembering that she was going to work at Gu's tomorrow, she took a deep breath and went upstairs.

When she got home, she didn't care if Chen Xiao couldn't make it through.After taking a shower, she lay down on the bed.

Chen Xiao still had the key here, but this time he took the key and opened the door by himself.He knocked on the bedroom door, but Gu Shi'an didn't answer the door, but he went to take a shower soon.

Gu Shi'an got up very early the next day, and got up at seven o'clock.The chance of being bumped into during normal working hours is high, so she simply went out early.

It was still early when she arrived at Gu's, and there were only a few people there.

There was only one colleague who worked with her in the reference room, and the one she arrived earlier hadn't arrived yet, and the front desk opened the door for her after looking for a key.

It is said to be a data room, but in fact it only manages recent data.Another colleague of the materials, Ms. Du, came over and took Gu Shian to get acquainted with her, only to find out that all the materials here are from the past three years.And not before.

She had doubts about this, and asked that Sister Gu Du, who probably got annoyed by being here long ago, rolled her eyes, and said, "Why do you want the previous materials? Do you think there are too many things? "

She is a newcomer, so it is really strange to ask about previous information.She had no choice but to smile embarrassingly, and said to ask casually, so she didn't mention it any more.

There are more things in Gu Shi's reference room than in Gu Shi'an's original company. In addition to sorting out materials, there are also people who come to look for them.Even had to send it to the office.

It's not suitable for Gu Shi'an to show his face now, so she invited Sister Du to dinner at noon.After complimenting me, I said that I am a newcomer and it is not easy to find this job.Please ask Sister Du to send the materials to the office. She will send them after she is familiar with them and will not make mistakes again.

Since ancient times, it has been thought that it is not a big deal to take advantage of the short hands and eat the soft mouth of others, and to send materials.Besides, Gu Shi'an was so sensible, so Sister Du readily agreed.And talked to Gu Shi'an about the temper and taboos of the leaders who are not easy to get along with in various offices.

She has been in Gu's for many years, often running to the office, and she knows almost every gossip in the office.

Gu Shi'an was very knowledgeable and interesting. After listening to Sister Du's gossip, he invited afternoon tea in the afternoon.

When it was time to get off work, the two had gotten to know each other very well, and Ms. Du talked about this job like a tasteless one.He also said that Gu Shi'an shouldn't come in, and it's better to find a small company to work than to work in Gu's.

In the past few years, the Gu family was better. In the past year, they often have not been able to pay wages.Sometimes employees' wages are not paid until half a month in arrears.

In the past, several powerful executives in the company quit because of this incident.The rest are old and weak.

It is conceivable how far a company has been in arrears with wages for half a month.Gu Shi'an forced a smile and listened.

Because he was afraid of being bumped into by others, Gu Shi'an was not in a hurry to leave after work.Sister Du has to wait for her husband to pick her up, and she is not in a hurry either.

After complaining about the salary, she suddenly said: "A few days ago, I heard that Miss Gu is going to be engaged to the second son of the head of Qixing's family. When the two get married, maybe the funds will not be so tight. It's just that the second son is a flamboyant young man who dared to tease Mr. Gu's secretary in front of Mr. Gu. Tsk tsk, it's not easy to be born into a wealthy family."

Sister Du sighed as she spoke.

Gu Shi'an was stunned for a moment.Among the younger generation of the Gu family, Gu Su is the only one who is not married now.The Miss Gu that Sister Du was talking about should be Gu Su.

But Gu Su's engagement is a big deal, she has never heard of it.Moreover, the old lady never mentioned it.Since she is going to be engaged, it is impossible for the old lady not to know.Impossible not to mention.

The only possibility is that the old lady didn't know about it either.
