Chapter 173
His tone was very casual, without any shame at all.Hearing that the mobile phone in the living room vibrated again, he walked over directly.

Shameless to the extreme, Gu Shi'an secretly gritted his teeth, did not stay in the living room any longer, and went back to the bedroom.

The weekend is coming soon, Chen Xiao doesn't seem to have hired a part-time worker, so naturally she has to clean the place she lives in.Woke up early and started cleaning.

Chen Xiao also rested, and Gu Shian tried his best to keep his hands and feet light, but he got up after a while.

Seeing Gu Shi'an cleaning up, he raised his eyebrows slightly, and quickly went back to his room to change his clothes.Helped to drag the ground.

In the past, he had never been impatient to do these things, and he had always been called a part-time worker.Now I don't know why I suddenly want to do it.

Gu Shi'an didn't say a word, and let him do it.

The house is not big, and it won't take long for the two of them to clean it together.Gu Shi'an planned to go to Chang'an, washed his hands, and said to Chen Xiao: "I want to go out, and I can handle breakfast by myself."

She got up early, and it was only after eight o'clock at the moment.There are plenty of breakfasts outside.

Chen Xiao just looked at her and said nothing.

Gu Shi'an was a little puzzled by his appearance. He was going back to his room to change clothes, but now he looked at him and asked, "What's the matter?"

Chen Xiao didn't answer her, but asked, "Where are you going? I'll be with you."

"I'm going to the store, what are you going to do?" Gu Shi'an asked suspiciously.

"I just didn't have breakfast, so I went to have breakfast." Chen Xiao went back to the room after saying this.

When Gu Shi'an changed his clothes and came out, he also changed his clothes and stood in the living room.Seeing Gu Shi'an, he picked up the car key and said, "Have you changed it? Let's go."

She didn't play in the past, and he was undoubtedly in the way of the past.Gu Shi'an looked at him and said, "There are many breakfast shops downstairs."

The corners of Chen Xiao's mouth curled up, and he suddenly moved closer to Gu Shi'an, and said, "I'd like to go there to eat." After a slight pause, he continued, "Daughter-in-law, you are so afraid that I will follow, is it because you want to eat?" What are you doing so shamelessly?"

He was still smiling all over.

Gu Shi'an was startled, pretending to be calm and said: "Do you think I'm you?"

After all, she was guilty and didn't care whether Chen Xiao followed or not, she opened the door and went out.

Chen Xiao was in a great mood. When he sat in the car, he tapped his fingers on the steering wheel a few times, glanced sideways at Gu Shi'an and asked, "How's your store's revenue recently?"

Every month's income is usually calculated, but the store has just opened not long ago, and some things I didn't buy in the past were saved, but now the business is good, and I bought those things I didn't buy when I had money.

Gu Shi'an didn't know what he meant by asking this, so he glanced at him inexplicably, and said, "It's okay."

Chen Xiao nodded now, thought for a while, and suddenly asked, "You don't plan to open another store?"

Although the business of this store is good now, it can be regarded as smooth and smooth.But Gu Shi'an never thought about opening another store.Not only did she not think about it, but Chang Yi probably didn't think about it either.

She shook her head now and said, "I haven't thought about it."

Chen Xiao glanced at her again, and said casually: "Whenever you want to open another store, tell me, and I will give you investment money. I also have a chef here."

I don't know why he mentioned this out of nowhere, Gu Shi'an looked at her suspiciously, and said, "Why don't you open everything yourself?"

Chen Xiao lazily replied: "Are you sure that asking me to do such a thing is not an overkill?"

Gu Shi'an couldn't find anything to answer for a moment, so he simply shut up.

Chen Xiao said that he would have breakfast at Chang'an's, but there was no breakfast at Chang'an's.There are many things to do in the morning, Gu Shi'an is not willing to bother Chang'an.On the way, Chen Xiao was asked to stop the car and went to the side of the road to buy breakfast.

She simply bought buns and soy milk, Chen Xiao looked disgusted, but took the things.

Chang Xi was somewhat surprised to see Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao going there together, but he didn't say anything, and invited Chen Xiao to sit down.

This morning, someone temporarily booked a few tables for a lunch treat, and with the appointments, it was much busier than usual.

She didn't have time to greet Chen Xiao, so she asked Gu Shi'an to pour him tea.Chen Xiao couldn't help here, and would only get in the way, so he simply went upstairs to find a place to sit.

This busy work lasted until after two o'clock in the afternoon, and when the guests were almost gone, Chang had time to ask Gu Shi'an: "What is Chen Xiao doing here?"

Although the ingredients were prepared early, she was still tired being the only one in the kitchen.Dense sweat broke out on her forehead.

How did Gu Shi'an know what Chen Xiao was doing here? He shook his head and said, "I don't know. He followed him when he went out."

Chang Yan nodded now, motioned for Gu Shi'an to take out the dishes, and said, "Eat right away."

When the shop was busy, Chen Xiao couldn't manage it. At this time, everyone hadn't eaten lunch yet, and he didn't let his uncle's temper be served by others.

Lunch was finished quickly, because everyone was tired from work in the morning, so Chang asked Xiao Wu and another clerk to rest and come back at five o'clock in the afternoon.

She and Gu Shi'an had something to discuss, but it was inappropriate to leave Chen Xiao alone.She politely asked Chen Xiao to go to the lounge to rest.

Chen Xiao didn't go either, and let her go about her business with a smile, leaving him alone.

He didn't leave, just sat in the lobby.It looks like it needs to visit the store.

Chang Li also let her go, and went up with Gu Shi'an under the pretext of going to clean up the private room above.

The figures of the two quickly disappeared at the stairs. Chen Xiao looked up, then lowered his head and flipped through the evening paper in front of him.

Due to Chen Xiao's presence, Gu Shi'an immediately locked the door after entering the private room.Then he took out the topographic map he had drawn and handed it to Chang.

Chang had already gone to the small building, and it was easy to get in.But what is frightening is that there is nowhere to hide in the increasingly sudden situation.

She often went to the small building these days, and marked out all the places where she could temporarily hide.If you encounter a sudden situation, you can avoid it a little bit.

Chang Yu has already been to Gu's, and it is easy to understand the map drawn by Gu Shi'an.This matter did not dare to be taken lightly, the two discussed in a low voice and discussed various unexpected situations that might be encountered.

This discussion lasted for half an hour, and at the end, Chang Yan put away the blueprint and said, "In any situation, you don't have to worry about me. Believe me, Gu's is not a dragon's pool or a tiger's lair, I will find a way to get out by myself. "

Her tone was very casual, obviously she didn't take Gu Shi seriously.

Gu Shi'an couldn't do it at all. Just as he was about to speak, Chang Yan looked at her seriously and said, "Shi'an, you should trust me."

Although she is often taciturn, she is rarely so serious.Gu Shi'an was taken aback for a moment, but finally nodded.

It was all agreed upon, Gu Shi'an was slightly relieved.The two of them hadn't thought of Chen Xiao just now, and when they went downstairs and saw Chen Xiao, they remembered that they had completely forgotten about him just now.

Chang Li came down to visit the kitchen as an excuse, and went directly to the kitchen.Chen Xiao had been hanging out for a while, Gu Shi'an couldn't follow him anymore, so he poured a glass of water and sat down opposite Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao was still flipping through that page of the newspaper. Seeing her sitting down, he raised his head and glanced at her, and said with a smile on his face, "How big is the private room upstairs, and it took so long to clean it up?"

The two of them had indeed stayed upstairs for a long time. Gu Shi'an was a little guilty, but he didn't show it on the surface, and said, "Of course you have to clean up."

At first, he thought that Chen Xiao wanted to say something, but he didn't. He just curled his lips and said something, then lowered his head and continued to read the newspaper he had been reading for a long time.

He didn't ask Gu Shi'an any more and heaved a sigh of relief, picked up the cup and took a sip of water.

Before she could swallow her saliva, Chen Xiao looked up at her again, and said with a half-smile: "Stay here for so long, aren't you discussing something?"

Gu Shi'an almost choked the water in his mouth when he drank it.She restrained herself and swallowed the water, and said without thinking, "Are you hypochondriac? If you are sick, you have to see a doctor."

The corner of Chen Xiao's mouth twitched evil spirits. He looked towards the kitchen and saw Chang'an's figure, and said, "I'm sick, but it's not delusional. Doctors can't cure it, only...you can. "

His tone was very ambiguous, and he winked at Gu Shi'an while speaking.

Without thinking about it, he knew that there was nothing good in what he said, so Gu Shi'an ignored him, got up and went to the kitchen.

Chen Xiao was extremely free this day, and stayed in the store until after five o'clock without any intention of leaving.

I don't know what he is doing here, Gu Shi'an came back after helping out for a while, and couldn't help asking sullenly: "Are you free today?"

Only then did Chen Xiao look up at her, and said, "Did you forget that I told you that I'm going back to the old house for dinner this weekend?"

Yes, he mentioned it.But Gu Shian always thought it was tomorrow.She froze for a moment.

Chen Xiao raised his wrist to check the time, and continued: "Aunt Ye let the evening go."

He even sat in the store for a day because of this.

Gu Shi'an also took out his mobile phone to check the time, took off the apron he was wearing, and said, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

Chen Xiao immediately said, "Aunt Ye wants to come over for dinner tonight."

Gu Shi'an was a little depressed, if he asked him to eat in the evening, would he really rush over to eat directly?

But she didn't say that, she went to the kitchen to say hello to Chang, and then she came out and said to Chen Xiao, "Let's go."

Chen Xiao didn't sit down anymore, got up and left with her.

His patience is very good now, and he just sat there for a long time without anything happening.It's just not like him at all.

Not long after the two got into the car, Ye Qing called and asked when they would be going back.Chen Xiao replied that he was already on his way.

Knowing that he was driving, Ye Qing didn't say any more, told to drive slowly, and then hung up the phone.

It's been a while since I saw Ye Qing, Gu Shi'an asked Chen Xiao to stop the car on the way, and got out of the car to pick out a gift for Ye Qing.

When he arrived at the old house, Ye Qing was already waiting, when he heard the sound of a car, he came out to welcome him.The old lady is gone, she is lonely in this huge old house.

Seeing the two of them, a smile appeared on her face, and when she saw that she had brought a gift, she scolded and told her not to bring anything in the future, because she has everything here.

She cooks all the meals herself, probably starting early in the preparation process.A large table is prepared, which is very rich.

Someone called after dinner, so Chen Xiao went upstairs to answer the phone.Gu Shi'an and Ye Qing cleaned up the kitchen together.

Ye Qing was worried about the two of them, and it was not easy to ask directly, so he asked in a roundabout way.Gu Shi'an didn't let her worry, she said everything was fine.

Ever since the old lady passed away, she hadn't seen Qi Shiyun again.When she saw the portrait of the old lady in the living room after packing up, she was in a trance for a moment.After a while, I asked, "Mom, has she been back?"

Ye Qing also looked at the old lady's portrait, sighed softly, and said: "No. Some time ago, someone had already packed up all her clothes here, so she probably won't be coming back."

When the old lady was around, everyone seemed to be able to keep going.After the old lady left, the family broke up immediately.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak now.Thinking of Qi Shiyun and her little boyfriend, she still asked, "Then where does she live now?"

Ye Qing was slightly in a daze, and replied: "The old lady is very kind to her, she has several properties under her name. She can live anywhere. For a while, I heard that she lived in the Qi family, but then I don't know why moved out."

Although the old lady was kind to her, she hadn't visited the old house for so long.Thinking about it is really chilling.

The atmosphere became tense.Gu Shi'an didn't speak any more.

Ye Qing came back to his senses after a while, looked at Gu Shi'an, and spoke to him.Finally, I looked upstairs and saw that Chen Xiao hadn't come, so he hesitated for a moment and asked, "Did Chen Xiao tell you, his father, he plans to come over to fight for this old house."

How could Chen Xiao tell her these things? Gu Shi'an was startled for a moment, and then asked: "Didn't the old lady's will make it clear?"

Why are you making trouble again now?

Ye Qing sighed, and said: "The old lady's will indeed made it clear, but he came back and said that this old house is the ancestral home of the Chen family. Even though the old lady said to leave it to Chen Xiao, he still has the right to inherit. Not only him Yes, and so does Chen Xun."

He came to fight for the old house, but he didn't mention the things the old lady left him.

This is Chen Zhengkang's style, and Gu Shi'an was not surprised when he recovered.Asked: "Does he often come to make trouble?"

Ye Qing shook his head, and said: "No. Only came twice, and Chen Xiao was not there. He talked harshly here for a long time and then left. When he came again later, Chen Xiao told him not to open the door for him. The locks on the front door of the house have been changed.”

Yes, Chen Zhengkang has the key in his hand.Even if he didn't open the door, he could come in if he wanted to.Change the lock and it will be clean.

But this is not the solution, Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, and asked: "Chen Xiao, did you say how to deal with it?"

Now that Chen Zhengkang has already made up his mind, he will definitely not give up until he achieves his goal.

"No, he didn't say anything, just let me leave it alone. Don't bother whoever makes trouble, just call him." Chen Xiao has always been very assertive, even if he thinks about how to deal with it, I'm afraid she will worry It is impossible to tell her.

Gu Shi'an wanted to say something else, but when he saw Chen Xiao coming down the stairs, he stopped talking.

Probably because he remembered the old lady when he came back, Chen Xiao was not in a good mood.After Ye Qing went to sleep, he has been standing in front of the old lady's portrait.

Gu Shi'an knew that he was not feeling well, so he stayed with him in the living room before going upstairs.

Chen Xiao stood for a long time, then turned back to the sofa, and said to Gu Shi'an: "It's getting late, go up and rest."

Knowing that the two of them were coming back, Ye Qing had already cleaned up the room.

Still the same as last time, Chen Xiao said that the guest room had been deserted for a long time, and asked Gu Shian to live in his bedroom.

Although he is busy, he still comes back from time to time.Just like when the old lady was there.

Gu Shi'an wanted to ask Chen Zhengkang about the fight for the old house, but seeing that Chen Xiao had no expression on his face, he still didn't speak in the end.

When she arrived at Chen Xiao's bedroom, she went to the bathroom to wash up, while Chen Xiao sat on the sofa and started smoking.

When Gu Shi'an came out, he was in a daze, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Her footsteps paused slightly, and she asked in a low voice, "Are you washing?"

Chen Xiao came back to his senses, raised his wrist to check the time, and found that it was past ten o'clock, stood up, and said, "I'll go to the next door to wash."

He didn't stay any longer as he said that, he opened the door and went out.

The old house was very quiet, except for the occasional chirping of insects, no other sounds could be heard.It was tiring after working in the store for a whole day, but Gu Shi'an didn't feel sleepy at all, and just lay there with his eyes open.

It was not until a long time later that she closed her eyes.

She didn't know how long she had slept, but she was woken up by a slight noise beside the bed.Before she could react in her mind, someone hugged her.

That person's body temperature was familiar, and he knew it was Chen Xiao without thinking about it.She was slightly startled, and as soon as she moved, Chen Xiao hugged her even tighter, and said in a low voice: "Let me sleep here tonight, if grandma finds out that we are not together, she will be sad. I promise do nothing."

The breath he exhaled smelled of alcohol, and he didn't know how much alcohol he had drunk.

After mentioning the old lady, Gu Shi'an didn't move anymore.Chen Xiao didn't do anything else, her tense body slowly relaxed.

Chen Xiao must have drunk a little too much wine, so he didn't speak any more after saying that.It didn't take long to hear the sound of even breathing.

Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep when he woke him up, and it took a long time before he closed his eyes and fell asleep.

When she woke up the next morning, Chen Xiao was still asleep, she got up lightly, then opened the bedroom door and walked out.

Today is still the same as usual, as if the old lady is still there, she and Ye Qing prepared the old lady's favorite food together.Chen Xiao even went out to buy fresh pastries that the old lady liked to eat.

Gu Shi'an originally thought that he would continue to live in the old house tonight, but who knew that after dinner, Chen Xiao came back after answering a phone call and said to Ye Qing: "Aunt Ye, I have to go back to the company to deal with something. Come see you again."

Ye Qing was reluctant to leave Ye Qing for the two of them, but knowing that the company had something to do, he would not leave the two of them, but told Chen Xiao to take it easy and drive slowly.

After Chen Ying got down, he told his aunt at home to call him if there was anything to do, and then got into the car.

At this time, it was past eight o'clock. I don't know what else is going on in Chen Xiao's company at this time. After the car drove out of the old house, Gu Shi'an asked, "Is the company's business urgent?"

Chen Xiao took out a cigarette and lit it, lowered the car window a little, took a puff, and said, "It's not about the company, they're arresting someone tonight."

When he said someone was caught, he was naturally referring to Wei Xu.

Gu Shi'an was taken aback, and said, "When did you catch it?" It couldn't have been caught last night, if it was caught last night, it would be impossible to tell Chen Xiao now.But didn't that person always go out late at night?

"Not long ago." Chen Xiao said without hiding it from her.

"Where is he now?" Gu Shi'an asked again.

"It's on the East Street." Chen Xiao paused for a moment, and then said, "He's still unconscious, I'll go and have a look first, and you'll stay in the car later."

This was originally her business, how could she hide behind him, she shook her head and said, "I'll go too."

Chen Xiao didn't stop her, but called again and asked the people over there to clean up the place.

Wei Xu was locked in an inconspicuous private house. He was tied up with hemp ropes all over his body. He was unconscious, and he was just thrown on the ground like that.

Here is an unfamiliar face, leading Chen Xiao inside, he said: "This kid used to be in the army, and he has some skills. Two brothers almost fell into his hands."

Chen Xiao didn't speak, and stepped forward to kick the person on the ground.But Wei Xu didn't respond.

The man hurriedly said: "He's making a lot of trouble, I've used some things for him, and he shouldn't wake up until tomorrow morning." He paused, hesitated for a moment, and said, "It's not safe here. , you see where to put him, take him there at this moment."

Chen Xiao looked at the people on the ground, and said casually: "Let's throw it to the warehouse first." He narrowed his eyes slightly, and then said: "His bones are quite hard, so I'll take care of him first before coming over. "

Since Wei Xu is cautious, he must not recruit people so quickly.Naturally, you have to suffer some flesh and blood first.

The man immediately said yes.

With Gu Shi'an around, it was inconvenient for him to say something.He said: "It's dirty here, Mr. Chen, you and Ms. Gu go back first. Please come over after cleaning up."

People are in a coma, and it's useless to stay here.

Chen Xiao nodded. Originally, he turned around to leave. Somehow he thought of something and turned around. He said indifferently, "He is so cautious, maybe he still has something behind him. Remember to be careful when you go out later."
