Chapter 178 Doubt
Assistant Sun was in a hurry, and the home and company were not on the way.When they arrived in the urban area, Gu Shi'an asked Chen Xiaofang to get off the car by herself, and she could just go back by car.

I don't know what Chen Xiao was thinking, he didn't stop the car, and sent her back outside the community, telling her to go back and have a good rest, don't go to work today, and then drove away.

Although he slept in the cage in the morning, he still stayed up all night after all. Gu Shi'an's complexion was not good, and his whole body was also listless.

Even if Chen Xiao didn't remind her, she wouldn't go to work again. She had already asked for leave, and she wasn't dedicated enough to stay up all night to go to work.

Probably because she was alone, the room was deserted.For some reason, the moment she closed the door, she suddenly remembered what Chen Xiao said in the villa last night.

Thinking of this, she unconsciously thought of Li Ranlai again.It was well known that Chen Xiao liked her at that time.Obviously now, it is time for the two to live and fly together. I don't know why Chen Xiao delayed the divorce until two years later.

Whether it was before or after the two separated, Gu Shi'an did not allow himself to think about these things.He quickly suppressed all the messy things, went to the bathroom to wash up, and then fell heavily on the bed.

Because she didn't have a good rest, she soon fell into a drowsy sleep.

It was already afternoon when she woke up, she pressed her drowsy forehead, took out her mobile phone to check that it was past five o'clock, and got out of bed to take a shower.

The first thing to do after washing up is to pick up the phone and call the old lady to ask how she is doing.

The aunt answered the phone, saying that the old lady was fine.Just now I ate a small bowl of eight-treasure porridge cooked by her, and now I went to the study.Ask Gu Shi'an if he wants to be called the old lady.

With the things of the old man, the old lady will not be lonely.Gu Shi'an said no, and asked his aunt to pay more attention, and call her if there is anything.

Auntie agreed with a smile on her face, and asked Gu Shian to rest well before hanging up the phone.

Gu Shian's mind was still not clear, he poured a glass of water and drank it before going to the kitchen to cook.

Chen Xiao should be busy today, and she is not in a hurry at all. She plans to make some dumplings and put them in the refrigerator. When she is busy, she can just cook them when she comes back at night.

She had to go out to buy dumpling wrappers, but she was too lazy to go out.Seeing that there was still flour, I took it out and planned to roll the skin by myself.

Dumplings have to be made, and rice has to be cooked.After kneading the dough and waking up, she went to cook.

The sky gradually darkened amidst her busy work, and when she had just made dumplings and put them in the refrigerator, the cell phone in the living room rang.

She thought it was because Chen Xiao didn't come back for dinner, but who knew it wasn't, the call was actually from Xiao Wang.

She didn't know why she called her that night, Gu Shi'an was slightly surprised, and answered the phone.

As soon as he was fed, Xiao Wang on the other end of the phone smiled and asked, "Sister Gu, what are you doing?"

"Cooking." Gu Shi'an replied, jokingly said, "It's as if you've disappeared during this period of time, why did you suddenly think of calling me?"

That's right, when she just left the company, Xiao Wang would call from time to time.After that, the number of calls was very small. Sometimes she would call her, and she would hang up before she could say a few words.

Now Xiao Wang said coquettishly: "Although I didn't call you, I promise, I'm always thinking of you, Sister Gu."

Her mouth is very sweet.

Gu Shi'an couldn't help showing a smile, and said, "Come on, let's talk about anything."

When she asked that question, Xiao Wang on the other side of the phone answered shyly. After hesitating for a while, he said, "Sister Gu, I'm getting married."

Gu Shi'an was taken aback. She didn't have a boyfriend some time ago, how long has it been since she is getting married?

"You're not kidding, are you?" she asked immediately.

"Of course not." Xiao Wang said weakly, paused, and then muttered: "I hope I'm joking."

She sighed as she spoke, and said hesitantly, "Sister Gu, I'm still pregnant."

Her speed was too fast, and Gu Shi'an couldn't recover for a while.He frowned and said, "Let me deal with it first."

Xiao Wang called her just to complain, so he would wait for her to deal with him quietly, and said bitterly: "Sister Gu, I don't want to get married at all. I never thought that I would win the lottery just once, obviously at that time... ..."

She looked like she was about to cry.Gu Shi'an immediately asked where she was.

Xiao Wang now replied that he was at home.She is now under strict surveillance and asked Gu Shi'an to wait for her while she sneaked out.If she doesn't find someone to pour out her bitterness, she will be driven crazy sooner or later.

She is pregnant now, how can she run far.The place where the two met was near Xiao Wang's house. When Gu Shi'an arrived, she had already arrived. Although she was still not cold, she wrapped herself in a coat and wrapped herself tightly.

Seeing Gu Shi'an, she was uncomfortable, so she called Sister Gu embarrassingly.

Not knowing if she had eaten yet, Gu Shi'an asked the waiter to order light and nutritious dishes, and then poured her a glass of water.

Because I'm pregnant, it doesn't look good to get married with a big belly.Xiao Wang's wedding is scheduled for next month.The other party was her senior brother in school. They used to hang out together in school, but they didn't have much contact after they came out.There was a class reunion at the beginning of the year, and we left each other's phone calls after we went there.

There has always been a little ambiguity between the two, watching movies occasionally and having a meal together.When I get busy, I don't contact for ten days and a half months.

The senior brother is knowledgeable, and she had a good impression of that senior brother when she was in school.So ambiguous, it would be a lie to say that you are not moved.But if people didn't open their mouths to pierce, she had to endure it.

It was obvious that they had always been ambiguous, but at another alumni gathering last month, the two drank a little wine, and what should have happened happened.

At that time, she was still a little resigned, and at the last moment, she asked her brother to take protective measures.But I don't know whether the senior brother took it or not, anyway, she won the lottery.

She was panicked when she learned that she might be pregnant. She dared not tell her parents about it, so she had to call her senior brother bravely.

After that night, the contact between the two is still not salty, but the frequency of the brother calling her has increased.But the relationship between the two is not like a normal couple.

A signature was required for the operation, and she originally wanted her senior brother to accompany her to the hospital, but who knew that the senior brother would bring Li to her house directly after hearing this.And confessed to her parents.He said that his parents had been notified and that he would come over soon and prepare for the wedding.

She called her brother from outside, and after she went back, the brother and her parents skipped over her and settled the matter.Her mother even threatened her, saying that it would be good if someone wants her, and told her to stop thinking about what is there and what is not, and take good care of the baby.Otherwise, she would not recognize her as a daughter.

She has long been an older leftover daughter in the eyes of her parents, and now she has children, grandchildren and husbands, and they are naturally delighted from ear to ear.I am not afraid of gossip at all.

Xiao Wang was listless, complaining while complaining.I only hate that she was greedy for beauty that night, otherwise how could she have fallen to the point where she has no human rights now.

While she was eating with Gu Shi'an, the phone rang several times.It was probably the brother who hit him.At first she directly refused to answer, but the other side was not in a hurry, and after a few minutes, she called again, and finally she had no choice but to pick up, and reluctantly told the other side where she was now.

After the two finished eating, a tall, thin boy with glasses came over.Seeing Gu Shian greeted him politely, and went to pay the bill.

Xiao Wang pouted and said, "Look, look, I feel like I'm under house arrest, and I immediately chased after him. It's all because of this little guy."

She said looking down at her stomach.

It's still early in the month, and her stomach is flat, and she doesn't look pregnant at all.

That senior brother obviously cared a lot about her and had a good temper. She had hung up on him so many times, yet he was not angry at all when he came here.She was playing childish temper because her senior brother went over her directly to talk about marriage.

The pregnant woman had a very bad temper, Gu Shi'an wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, deliberately put on a straight face, and said, "Punish him to wash diapers more in the future."

Xiao Wang burst out laughing, nodded earnestly, and said, "Yes, I'll have to give him a hard time in the future."

After complaining about the pain for a long time, her mood improved a lot.There are more smiles on the face.

The senior brother was very polite, he asked Gu Shi'an to make a trip, and invited her to attend their wedding.

Gu Shi'an smiled and agreed, seeing that it was past nine o'clock, he told the two of them to go back quickly.Xiao Wang is now pregnant and needs to rest early.

The senior brother was obviously nervous and coaxed Xiao Wang to leave.

Gu Shi'an watched the figures of the two disappear into the distance, and then went to the side of the road to stop the car.

Xiao Wang didn't go to bed early when he went back, and called Gu Shi'an again not long after, saying that he was going to choose a wedding dress next weekend and asked Gu Shi'an to accompany her.

Although she complained, she was going to be a bride soon, which was rough and sweet.

Gu Shi'an agreed seriously and asked her to send her the address, and she would go directly there when the time came.

Xiao Wang was looking forward to it, and babbled on for a while before hanging up the phone.

She had just hung up the phone when Chen Xiao called.Gu Shi'an looked at the number and picked it up.

Chen Xiao had already arrived home, frowning on the other end of the phone and asked where she was.

Gu Shi'an replied that something happened outside and he was on his way home now.

Chen Xiao didn't say much and hung up the phone.

Gu Shi'an put the phone back in his pocket, and looked sideways at the night outside the window.The city at night is strange, pedestrians are in a hurry, and there is loneliness and desolation everywhere.

For some reason, she suddenly remembered what happened before she and Chen Xiao got married.

Unlike Xiao Wang and her senior brother at all, she didn't even meet Chen Xiao a few times during their marriage.

She didn't know how she remembered these things again, and stretched out her hand to rub the center of her brows.

When she left, all the meals were ready, and when she came back, Chen Xiao had already finished her meal.Seeing her, he frowned and asked, "Didn't I let you rest at home?"

"Well, something happened temporarily." Gu Shi'an replied while changing his shoes.

Chen Xiao sized her up and asked, "What's the matter?"

He didn't know when he started to gossip like that, Gu Shi'an hesitated and said nothing, and went to the bathroom to wash his hands.

When he came out, Chen Xiao was sitting on the sofa watching TV, and when he saw her, he pointed to a large bag of things thrown on the small table, and said, "They brought it back when they came out, take it."

Gu Shi'an groaned, walked over to open the bag and took a look, and found that there were some snacks inside.Several boxes of chocolates should be expensive.

She said thank you right now, then took out a box of chocolates, took one apart, and slowly bit it.After eating a piece of chocolate, she said, "I'm fine now, I'll go back there tomorrow."

Chen Xiao naturally knew where she was talking about, so he glanced at her coolly, and said, "Gu Su hasn't responded yet, so you think it's all right? With her personality, what do you think she will do?" Do neither?"

That's right, since Gu Su asked her to deliver the materials that day, there has been no further movement.

After finishing speaking, he didn't give Gu Shi'an a chance to speak, and then said: "Stay here well, and don't think about what you have. When the matter is resolved, you go back to yours, and I won't stop you."

After he finished speaking, he got up and went back to the study, leaving Gu Shi'an alone in the living room.

Gu Shi'an sat without moving, took out another piece of chocolate and slowly bit it.At ten o'clock, I went back to my room and went to bed.

She got up early the next day, and called early to ask the old lady about the situation.

Auntie was cheerful on the other end of the phone, saying that she was telling Gu Shian not to worry, and last night Chen Xiao called the doctor to go over there and guard there.

He didn't mention this at all, Gu Shi'an looked at the guest room where Chen Xiao lived, and nodded.After talking to my aunt for a few words, I hung up the phone.

She hadn't been to the company for a few days. Sister Du breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, and said, "Finally I'm back. I've been so busy these days alone."

After she finished speaking, she asked again: "Have you taken care of everything at home?"

Gu Shi'an nodded, smiled and said, "It's all taken care of."

She hadn't come for a few days, she didn't know what to do, so she asked Sister Du.

Sister Du handed over the matter at hand to her, and then babbled about some project that had been aborted in the past and was turned up again, as if there was a company that wanted to cooperate or something.In the past few days, I have taken a lot of materials from here.

But that project has been going on for a long time, maybe all the materials in the archives room have to be cleaned up.

Gu Shi'an's heart skipped a beat when he heard the words "archive room", and they were just about to think of other ways to enter the file room openly, which is too much of a coincidence.

She was vigilant, she didn't know if this was what Sister Du was saying to test something, she just smiled slightly.

In the afternoon, she went upstairs to deliver materials.As soon as he reached the elevator entrance, he saw a group of people walking towards the elevator surrounded by Chen Xiao.

He obviously came here once that day, and he didn't know what he was going to do.

But he is obviously very welcome to come to Gu's, and her second uncle will accompany him in person.

Gu Shi'an was slightly startled, then turned around and went to the firefighting corridor.When Chen Xiao and his party returned after delivering the materials, they had disappeared, and they should have gone upstairs.

Gu Shi'an was a little absent-minded, restrained again and again, and finally sent a text message to Chen Xiao, asking him what he was doing here.

I don't know if he was talking about something and didn't see it or what, but Chen Xiao didn't reply.

On the contrary, when she was about to leave work, Sister Du received a message, saying that they should go to the archives room tomorrow to sort out all the materials about the project.

One more thing happened, and Sister Du complained, but she still didn't dare to disobey the order of her superiors, so she complied.

Gu Shi'an's heart almost overflowed his throat, thinking of Chen Xiao who came over again and again, he always felt that this matter had something to do with him.

This thought flashed through his mind, and another thought popped up again, did he know something?She shook her head almost immediately, no, the only people who knew about it were her and Changqin Qintang, it was impossible for him to know.

Thinking of this, Gu Shi'an thought of Qin Tanglai. He probably hasn't come back from a business trip. She hasn't seen him for a long time.

She recovered quickly and continued to sort out the materials.

Chen Xiao never replied to the text message, but sent her a text message when she was off work, saying that she was waiting for her at the old place, and asked her to go there directly after get off work.

Gu Shi'an looked at his phone for a while, then started to pack his things and leave work.

When she passed by, Chen Xiao's car was parked where it used to be, but he was not there.Gu Shi'an was about to make a call when he came out of a coffee shop not far away, holding a cup of coffee and a small box in his hand.

Seeing her, he raised his eyebrows, took out the car keys, and said, "It's pretty fast."

He quickly walked over, handed the things in his hand to Gu Shi'an, then opened the door and got in the car.

Gu Shi'an held the things he handed over without moving, and Chen Xiao put on his seat belt before saying, "Eat it, I brought it for you."

Gu Shi'an looked down at the things in his hands, and said, "I saw you at Gu's today."

Chen Xiao didn't know whether he really didn't see her or pretended he didn't see her, so he said casually, "Really?"

Gu Shi'an looked up at him and asked, "What are you doing there?"

The corner of Chen Xiao's mouth curled up, and while starting the car, he looked at Gu Shi'an and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you caring about me?"

He was interrupting, showing that he didn't want to answer the question.

Gu Shi'an looked at him, did not answer his words, and said after a while, "You clearly know what kind of people they are..."

Her tone was slightly tired.

Chen Xiao chuckled now, and said, "Daughter-in-law, I'm a businessman, and I've always only done profitable things."

What he said was quite meaningful.

Gu Shi'an pursed his lips slightly, and after a while, he asked, "What do you plan to cooperate with them?"

Probably guessing that she would ask that question, Chen Xiao smiled lazily, and said, "Don't worry about it. Don't worry, daughter-in-law, I cooperate with them for the public, not for selfishness."

As he spoke, he blinked at Gu Shi'an, as if he knew what she was thinking.

It was obvious that she was acting affectionate, and Gu Shi'an's face turned red all of a sudden.

Chen Xiao laughed, but did not stay on the topic, and said, "Let's eat, the dim sum here is not bad."

Gu Shi'an didn't touch the snack, picked up the coffee and drank it.She quickly calmed down, remembering what her aunt said this morning, and said, "Grandma... thank you."

Chen Xiao was lazy, and said: "If you really want to thank me, then let me worry less. Stay in the new house honestly."

Gu Shi'an fell silent now.

Chen Xiao didn't linger on this topic either. He raised his wrist to look at the time and said, "What do you want to eat? Eat out tonight before going back. In case you think I let you stay in the new house just to let you cook for me .”

Gu Shi'an immediately said, "I haven't thought about it that much."

The corners of Chen Xiao's lips twitched, and he stretched out his hand to touch his chin, and said, "I know, I am so good-looking, you are willing."

Simply a narcissist, Gu Shi'an just shut his mouth.

Chen Xiao said he wanted to eat outside, but he didn't go home right away, but drove around and took Gu Shi'an to a hot pot restaurant.

He was down to earth.

He didn't care about things, sat down and ordered Gu Shi'an to pour him tea.He didn't care when the waiter brought the menu, and gave it to Gu Shi'an directly.

The two of them couldn't eat much, and Gu Shi'an didn't order much.Chen Xiao glanced at her, and said solemnly: "Daughter-in-law, this shop will disappear after passing this village, so please don't save me."

Gu Shi'an ignored her and handed the menu to the waiter.Then I poured myself a cup of tea.

Just as Chen Xiao was about to speak, his cell phone rang.

He took out his mobile phone to look at it, got up and walked out.

He went out for a long time, but the waiter brought the food and he still didn't come back.

Gu Shi'an checked the time, took out his mobile phone to call him, but found that his mobile phone was in the middle of a call.Should still be on the phone.She hung up the phone.

Chen Xiao never came back, the waiter brought up the bottom of the pot, Gu Shi'an checked the time, waited for a while, and then opened the door to go out.

The corridor was empty, and there was no sign of Chen Xiao.Gu Shi'an identified the direction a little bit, and planned to go to the bathroom to have a look.

After only two steps, a group of people came across.The one walking in the center is Chen Xun.Haven't seen him for a while, he's in high spirits.The two people walking next to him are both potbellied and should be business partners.

When he saw Gu Shi'an, he was also slightly stunned, and then a smile like a spring breeze was put on his face again, and he said, "Sister-in-law, are you eating here too?"

Reaching out his hand to avoid smiling, Gu Shi'an squeezed out a smile and nodded.

She was going to leave immediately, but Chen Xun didn't know the fun, and said with a smile: "It's boring to eat alone, sister-in-law, would you mind joining us? This is Mr. Ma and Mr. Liu, both of whom are mine. Friends, you probably won't mind."

He said and looked at the two people next to him.
