Chapter 226 Indifferent
The light in the corridor was cold but bright, and it seemed that she came in a hurry. Her clothes and hair were all messed up, and she was in a panic.

She didn't care about it, and stood at the door.A pair of eyes looked at the elevator entrance.

Chen Xiao didn't come back for a long time, Gu Shi'an stood for a long time and his body became stiff, before squatting on the ground against the wall.

She didn't call Chen Xiao's number again, just waited.

What the security guard said was that Chen Xiao hadn't come back yet, so that proves that he still lives here.He always comes back.

Gu Shi'an thought she would be anxious, but she was surprisingly calm.After staying for a long time, I remembered to send a text message to my aunt to report her safety.

The snow outside was falling more and more at this time, and the sound of the cold wind whistling outside seemed to be heard in the corridor.

Someone opened a gap in the window at the end of the corridor, and the wind came in and messed up Gu Shian's hair.She was already covered in cold sweat, but now her body became icy cold.

Chen Xiao came back very late, at three o'clock in the morning.Gu Shi'an had already dozed off in a daze, and opened his eyes immediately when he heard footsteps.

Chen Xiao had drunk some wine, but he was sober.Seeing Gu Shi'an squatting by the wall, he paused and walked over quickly."Why are you here?" he asked casually.

When Gu Shi'an came, he had thought a lot about what to say, but at this moment, he couldn't say a word.She fell silent.

Seeing how pitiful she was, Chen Xiao opened the door, glanced at her, and said, "Since you're all here, come in."

He didn't care about Gu Shi'an, and walked in after speaking.I changed my shoes and went straight to the bathroom.

The room was a bit messy and not as clean and tidy as it used to be.The ashtray on the small table was full of ashes and cigarette butts, the windows in the room were closed, and there was a smell of cigarettes.

The garbage in the trash can was not emptied, and it was thrown all over the side.

Gu Shi'an stood for a while, then stepped forward to clean up the messy table and the pile of garbage.It must have been a while since the house was cleaned up, and the instant noodles in the trash can had a musty smell.

Gu Shi'an cleaned everything one by one, and then went to open the window for ventilation.

Chen Xiao didn't know what he was doing in the bathroom, and he never came out.Gu Shi'an was almost done packing, so he came out.

His complexion was not good, slightly pale.As if he couldn't see that Gu Shi'an cleaned up the house, he asked, "Tell me, what's the matter?"

His tone was a little impatient, and he lit a cigarette and started smoking.

After being outside in the cold for a long time, Gu Shi'an has already calmed down.She didn't go to see him and said, "It's nothing."

Chen Xiao raised her eyebrows, but she went straight to the bathroom.

The bathroom was also messy. Chen Xiao's clothes were piled up a lot, and it was unknown how long it had been since he washed them.

She picked out what needed to be washed by hand and threw the rest in the washing machine.After turning on hot water, he went out and asked Chen Xiao, "Can I live in a guest room?"

Chen Xiao's back was deserted, and now he looked back at her, and asked with a half-smile: "Do you want to live here?" Before Gu Shi'an could answer, he asked again: "Do you think you are welcome here? ?”

In the end, his handsome face was already indifferent.A slight sarcasm curled up on the corner of his lips, and he said, "Do you think it's interesting to be so entangled? After so many years of entanglement, don't you bother?"

In the past, Gu Shi'an would definitely wait in silence.

But this time it didn't. She looked up at him coldly, and said, "Which eye of yours saw me pestering me? The bathroom and balcony over there are going to be remodeled, so I came here to stay for a few days. "

Her tone was very serious, and it was completely impossible to tell that she was lying.

Chen Xiao didn't expect her to answer like this, and was taken aback for a moment.The corner of her mouth ticked immediately, and she asked with great interest, "Do you think it's appropriate to live with someone who is about to become an ex-husband?"

Gu Shi'an didn't even look at him, and said seriously: "I don't think there's anything inappropriate." After a short pause, she glanced at Chen Xiao, and said, "Didn't you say that you promised that grandma would take care of me?" Is it? Is it just talking?"

After saying this, she didn't even look at Chen Xiao anymore, and went directly to the bathroom.

She was very eloquent today, Chen Xiao took a cigarette and started smoking.

Gu Shi'an quickly took a shower, she had no clothes to wear, so she put on the bathrobe that Chen Xiao left in the bathroom.Tighten the belt tightly, but it is barely wearable.

It has been too long since she came back, looking at the familiar things, she was slightly in a trance.

After standing in the bathroom for a while, she went out.Chen Xiao was still smoking at the moment, and he didn't even change his posture.

Gu Shi'an didn't even look at him, and went straight to the guest room.

Chen Xiao lives in the master bedroom, and no one lives in the guest room.Gu Shi'an took out the quilt and sheets and spread them on.

Just as he was about to take out the pillow, Chen Xiao walked in, leaned against the door, raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you really planning to live here?"

Gu Shi'an said without raising his head, "I'll go back when it's done over there."

"It's inconvenient for you to be here." Chen Xiao didn't look angry, and spoke lazily.

Gu Shi'an naturally knew what he meant, and said without thinking: "I will only stay in the room except for meal time. I won't disturb you."

She looked like this, obviously determined to stay.Chen Xiao didn't speak any more, turned around and went back to the living room.

Gu Shi'an's body relaxed, and he lay down on the bed after making the bed.

It was already late when Chen Xiao came back, and he cleaned up the house and washed his clothes. It was already past four o'clock.

She didn't know if she had a cold or something, but her head was aching and she closed her eyes.

Chen Xiao didn't know whether he was asleep or not. Gu Shian couldn't sleep and got up to go to the bathroom. The light in the living room was already off.

It was past five o'clock when she fell asleep in a daze. She felt as if someone was watching her in her sleep. She wanted to open her eyes, but she couldn't.

She was quite alert, she opened her eyes when it was daylight, and rolled out of bed all at once.It's quiet outside, I don't know if Chen Xiaoqi is there or not.

Her clothes have been washed, so she can only go out in the bathrobe on her body.Open the door, the living room is quiet and deserted.There was no sign of Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an took the dry clothes and changed into them. He planned to make breakfast, but when he went to the kitchen, he found that there was nothing in the refrigerator except mineral water.

Although the kitchen is neat and tidy, a thin layer of dust has accumulated on the kitchen counter that has not been used for a long time.

Gu Shi'an took a look, but in the end he couldn't find anything like noodles, so he had to give up.

If you can't cook breakfast at home, you have to go out to buy it, and she doesn't have a key when you go out.She stood there for a while, then knocked on the bedroom door.

The bedroom door was not closed, she knocked lightly and opened it.Chen Xiao didn't know when he left, and he was not seen inside.Gu Shi'an didn't hear a sound either.She froze for a moment, and closed the door.

Since Chen Xiao has already left, there is no need to buy breakfast.She didn't say hello to the old lady, she had to go back.

In the past, the spare keys were placed at the entrance, so she walked over to find the key.The position of the key has not changed, Gu Shi'an heaved a sigh of relief, looked into the room, and then closed the door and went out.

She took the elevator downstairs, thinking about the things she would buy when she came back.The fridge is empty and we need to buy some food.There are also daily necessities, the aunt has probably been resigned by Chen Xiao, otherwise it would be impossible not to come and clean for such a long time.

If Auntie doesn't buy daily necessities, Chen Xiao won't buy them.The time he spends alone at the supermarket is numbered.

Also, she has no clothes here.I have to go back and tidy up later.

Just as Gu Shi'an got into the car, his cell phone rang.It was the call from my aunt, saying that there was snow on the mountain, and told her not to hurry back.The old lady will speak for her.

Gu Shi'an said it was all right, and asked the old lady if she was awake.

The aunt replied that she hadn't, and she slept more deeply last night.She went to see it several times at night and she slept well.It's cold this morning, so I should sleep more.

Knowing that the old lady is good to Gu Shi'an, she should feel relieved, hung up the phone and started the car.

She didn't come out of the house, and the car drove out of the parking lot only to find that there was snow in the community.The roofs of the buildings in the distance were white.The branches and grass on both sides are also white.

The roads in the community have been cleaned, leaving only water stains.

When passing by the security booth, Gu Shi'an pretended to casually ask when Chen Xiao went out, and the security guard smiled and said that he went out before dawn.He also said that Mr. Chen has been very busy recently, so he should pay attention to his body.

Gu Shi'an thanked him with a slight smile, and drove the car out of the community.

Although the snow accumulated deeply last night, the main urban area has been sprinkled with salt and shoveled over the snow, and the roads are clear.

There are few vehicles on the mountain road over the villa, so no one has done it.But there was already a car passing by, and it wasn't very slippery for her to follow the car.Much better than at night.

The old lady didn't get up until she went back, and the aunt didn't tell her that Gu Shi'an went out last night.She probably thought she wasn't up yet.He was quite surprised to see her coming in from the outside, and said, "Why did you go out so early?"

Gu Shi'an just smiled, and said vaguely that he had something to do and went back.

The old lady didn't ask any more questions, and asked her aunt to add more dishes for her.Said it was cold outside, let her drink more porridge to warm her stomach.

Breakfast was also made twice, seafood porridge and baked egg pancakes for Gu Shian.The old lady's is porridge and side dishes.Very simple.

Gu Shi'an just pretended not to know and didn't ask anything.

She just came here yesterday, and she said she would spend a few days with the old lady.Now I have to leave today and I don't know how to talk to the old lady.

The old lady seemed to notice it, and waved her to go back.Just say it's the weekend.She is used to being clean by herself, it doesn't matter if she is there or not.

Gu Shi'an felt guilty in his heart, and repeatedly promised that he would definitely come over on the weekend.

The old lady didn't ask her what's the matter, she just said that the car was parked and she was asked to drive back.It's more convenient when you come here.

When the weather is not snowing, it is easy to take a taxi. When the weather is cold, it is more biased, and many drivers are reluctant to come here.

It is indeed more convenient to have a car, Gu Shi'an did not refuse.Make sure you take good care of your car.

The old lady was amused by her, and before leaving, she told her to call Gu Lan with her next time she came over.The two sisters came to have fun together.

Gu Shi'an complied, and then repeatedly told the old lady to take care of her body when it was cold, before leaving.

It was much more convenient to have a car. She didn't go back to Chen Xiao's place, but went back to her own place and packed her clothes.Then I went to the supermarket to buy again.

Chen Xiao was missing too many things, it was a big purchase.She stayed in the supermarket for more than two hours.Store food in the refrigerator for a week.

It wasn't until she paid the bill and put her things in the car that she realized that she was sweating profusely.

It's past four o'clock now, so it's a bit early to go back.She went to a pastry shop she used to love to buy some bread, and then went back.

In the car, she originally wanted to call to ask what time Chen Xiao got off work, but she hesitated for a while, but in the end she didn't call.I plan to go back and cook dinner before calling him.

It was almost six o'clock when I went back, and the car arrived at the gate of the community, but the security guard didn't let her in like last night.Instead, he stood up and said with some embarrassment: "Miss Gu, Mr. Chen said that you can no longer be allowed in."

Last night, she was still called Mrs. Chen, but today she has become Ms. Gu.

Gu Shi'an did not expect Chen Xiao to play this move at all, and he couldn't react for a while.Then he pursed his lips and asked, "Why?"

The security guard smiled awkwardly and said, "I don't know if you ask me. This is the communication between Mr. Chen and his superiors. The order we got is not to let you in." Both sides are not easy to offend, the security guard Secretly complaining in his heart, he tentatively said, "Why don't you call Mr. Chen and discuss it?"

This is to tell Gu Shian not to embarrass them.

Since Chen Xiao had already said hello, there was no way he would answer her call.There was already a queue at the back, Gu Shi'an reluctantly smiled and said yes, and turned the car around.

As she expected, Chen Xiao wouldn't answer her calls at all.When she pulled the car over to the side of the road to make a phone call, she realized that he had blocked her number.It doesn't work at all.

It seemed that he was well prepared.The spare key is still far away, probably just to dispel her vigilance.

Gu Shi'an put down his phone and drove to Chen Xiao's company.

Foreign vehicles are not allowed to enter Chen Xiao's company, so she parked the car outside.Keep looking at the exit of the building.

It was already off-duty time, and people came out of the building one after another.There were also cars coming out of the exit of the parking lot, but they didn't see Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an looked up at the whole building. He didn't know if he was working overtime or something. The lights on most floors were on.

I don't know how long I will wait like this.Gu Shi'an got out of the car, intending to ask the security guard if Chen Xiao had left.

When she got to the security room, before she could ask a question, a tall and big man came out of the room, seeing Gu Shi'an, he scolded: "What are you doing here! This is not for you to enter."

He waved his hands impatiently like chasing flies.

In a short period of time, even the security guards were changed.Gu Shi'an's heart sank, he squeezed out a smile, and said, "Hello, I want to ask if Mr. Chen is gone? That's right, he went to our company to inquire about a product some time ago..."

The big man gave her a vigilant look, but he still asked, "Which Mr. Chen are you asking?"

This means that Chen Xun is already here.

Gu Shi'an's expression remained unchanged, and he said, "It's your former President Chen..." She looked into the security room and said, "Did you change people? I came here a few days ago I don't think I've seen you here."

The security guard sneered, and said, "You said you were the former Mr. Chen, why are you here looking for someone? Hurry up, don't inquire about things you shouldn't."

After he finished speaking, he was about to stretch out his hand to push Gu Shi'an.Drive her away.

What he said clearly meant that Chen Xiao was no longer here.Where is he now?Gu Shi'an's heart kept sinking, and before he could touch him, he turned around and left quickly.

It can be seen that the Chen family is now stricter than before regarding the identities of people entering and leaving.Cars parked on the side of the road are conspicuous.Gu Shi'an drove the car away from Chen's door, and then took out his mobile phone.

She had no idea where Chen Xiao would be at all, and there was nowhere to look for her.I had no choice but to call Assistant Sun.

But Assistant Sun's phone was not connected, and it was still turned off.

His cell phone was turned off last time, so if it keeps turning off, it means that the situation is worse than she imagined.

Gu Shi'an couldn't sit still at the moment, so he immediately called Chang Qian again.

It took a while for Chang Wei to answer the phone, Gu Shi'an asked without waiting for her to speak: "Ah Ji, do you know where Chen Xiao will be?"

Chang Yan might not know where Chen Xiao was, but she really couldn't think of where to find Chen Xiao.I can only find someone who is more well-informed.

As soon as Chang Yan heard this, he knew that something must have happened, and immediately asked, "What's wrong?"

Gu Shi'an now told her what she was stopped when she went to Chen's and what the security guard said.

Chang also didn't expect the situation to be so serious, and his face turned serious, and he said, "Wait a minute, I'll call and ask."

Gu Shi'an agreed and hung up the phone.

The waiting time was extremely difficult, she did not give up, and called Assistant Sun again.But it's still off.

It took Chang more than ten minutes to call back, and said in a serious tone: "I called to ask, and Chen Xiao seldom goes to the company recently. As for where he is staying... I don't know yet. His latest I'm not sure where I am, and I don't have a place I often go to." When she said this, she seemed to think of something, and then asked, "Have you been back to the new house?"

Gu Shi'an did not tell her that Chen Xiao had asked the security guards to prohibit her from entering, but only said that he would not be there.

He didn't let her in, knowing that she would stay there and probably wouldn't go back for a few days.

Chang Yu fell silent on the phone, and asked again: "Where are you now? I know a few places he used to go to frequently, and I will go there with you to see?"

Now there is no information about Chen Xiao at all, so we can only go and have a look.But Gu Shi'an knew that hope was slim.Although Lincheng is not big, if you want to hide from no one, it is a breeze.

She nodded in agreement and asked Chang to wait in the shop.She drove over to pick her up.

It was blocked at this time, and she was often not allowed to pass.The two talked about a meeting point, and they went there to meet up.

It was often late when she took a taxi, and Gu Shi'an waited for ten minutes at the place before she came over in a hurry.

The few places I often mentioned were clubs and bars, which were places where Chen Xiao used to socialize.

Where it was in the past, it may not be in the present.The two searched for several houses in a row, but they couldn't find Chen Xiao.

The change of the Chen family is no secret now, although Chen Xiao has always been generous.But there is never a shortage of people who make trouble.When Gu Shi'an and Chang Wei were inquiring, someone said with a smile that Mr. Chen might not be able to come to this place now.

On the contrary, the managers of two stores left Gu Shian's phone number, saying that they would contact her if Chen Xiao came over.But these should be just polite words.

After turning around and seeing no one, Gu Shi'an was even more anxious now.Coming out of the last clubhouse, Chang Yu was silent for a while, and asked, "Is he at the old house?"

Gu Shi'an shook his head and said, "Probably not." He always reported the good news but not the bad news. At this time, it was impossible for him to let Aunt Ye know anything.

But this is also uncertain.Ye Qing didn't know much about the news in the old house, as long as he pretended to be nonchalant by saying nothing, Ye Qing wouldn't know anything.

Gu Shi'an was so anxious that he immediately said, "Go and have a look."

She said and walked outside quickly.As soon as they reached the door, a group of people came in through the door.

Gu Shi'an walked with his head buried and didn't notice, Chang Yan immediately tugged at her sleeve.Originally, he wanted to avoid it, but Chen Xun looked over with sharp eyes.

He was originally chatting and laughing with the people around him, but seeing Gu Shi'an was a little surprised, the smile on his face deepened, he walked over quickly, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Is there something wrong with sister-in-law?"

He was in high spirits, and the gentle smile on his face was as fake as a mask.

This person's scheming has always been deep, Gu Shi'an no longer even perfunctory at this moment, and said flatly: "It's okay."

How could Chen Xun believe it? Suddenly, he patted himself on the head, and suddenly realized: "Sister-in-law, you have never come here, so you are here to find your class, right? A few days ago, you said that Mrs. Gu... "

When he said this, he seemed to realize that he was exposing someone's scars. He suddenly stopped and said hypocritically: "No matter what, sister-in-law, you can't come to work in this kind of place. This kind of place is not suitable for you, sister-in-law. You If you don't mind, come to me. It's not difficult to arrange a job for you, sister-in-law. "

He spoke with sincerity, as if he was talking to himself for the sake of Gu Shi'an.
