Chapter 237 Provocation
He is quite self-aware.

Chen Xiao leaned back, and said lightly, "Aren't you here too?"

Chen Xun didn't feel embarrassed at all, picked up the teacup in front of him, took a sip of tea, and said with a slight smile, "I'm here this time to bring good news to you, brother."

He was full of ambition, not as humble and polite as usual.

The good news he said, where is the good news.Chen Xiao's handsome face was cold, he didn't speak, just looked at him.

Chen Xun looked at Gu Shi'an now, smiled and said, "I don't know if she told you what I told my sister-in-law last time."

Naturally, Gu Shi'an never told Chen Xiao.

Chen Xun probably guessed it too. He paused slightly, looked around again, and sighed: "Although the old house is a bit off, it's quite clean." He changed the subject, and then said: "Brother Your liquidated damages should be a big shortfall, right? I have a friend who happens to be interested in this kind of old house..."

He stopped here and observed Chen Xiao's reaction.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, but just looked at him coldly.After a minute or two, he said with a half-smile, "Should I thank you from time to time for coming here to tell me this?"

His eyes were icy cold, as sharp as a sharp knife.

Chen Xun didn't dare to look at him, smiled, and said hypocritically: "Brother, I'm doing this for the sake of you. After all, I can't watch you go to jail."

He was a little careless at the end, but he was actually reminding Chen Xiao.What will happen if the funds are not filled.

The corners of Chen Xiao's lips curled up with some sarcasm, and he said: "Then I really want to thank you very much." He paused for a while, and then said: "But I really can't bear Mr. Chen calling me brother." .If there is nothing else, Mr. Chen will not stay."

This is chasing.

Chen Xun didn't want to leave like that. He tapped his eyebrows and said, "My friend sincerely wants to buy it, and the price won't be low. I advise you...you should think about it carefully. After all..."

He didn't go on when he said this, and showed a meaningful smile.

These words are threatening.

Chen Xiao didn't speak, just looked at him with a smile on his face.

Although he was calm on the surface, Chen Xiao's smile made him a little terrified.He stood up, bid farewell politely, and then went out.

The aunt quickly sent him out, and the living room was quiet.

Qi Shiyun should have been paying attention to the living room, walked down from upstairs, frowned and asked, "What is he doing here?"

Chen Xiao picked up the teacup and said, "I'm too busy to panic."

He has always reported good news but not bad news, so naturally he would not tell her.

But Qi Shiyun would not believe this and fell silent.After a while, he opened his mouth and said, "Come to the study."

As she spoke, she walked towards the study first.

There was some worry in Gu Shi'an's eyes, and Chen Xiao said that it was all right, and then followed in the direction of the study.

Chen Xiao and Qi Shiyun entered the study, Ye Qing also walked out.She was in the kitchen, more or less overheard.His complexion was not good, and he asked in a low voice, "Did something happen in the company?"

Chen Xiao kept the truth from her, and she didn't go out very often, so she didn't know any news from the Chen family.

Naturally, Gu Shi'an would not tell her, so he squeezed out a smile and said, "It's nothing, don't worry, Chen Xiao will take care of it."

Ye Qing was still worried, and said: "I don't know what kind of troubles will come out."

The blame comes and goes, and Chen Zhengkang is all to be blamed. If it weren't for him, there wouldn't be more mother and son.There won't be so many bad things.

Gu Shi'an said it's okay, changed the subject, and asked Ye Qing to teach her how to make some desserts.

Ye Qing was very happy to teach her these things, so he took her to the kitchen and began to talk in detail.

Where is Gu Shi'an thinking, he is absent-minded, looking in the direction of the study from time to time.Chen Xiao and Qi Shiyun didn't know what they were talking about, and it took about half an hour before they came out.

There was no expression on Chen Xiao's face, and Qi Shiyun couldn't see anything either.

Qi Shiyun quickly went upstairs, while Chen Xiao went to the kitchen.

Seeing him coming, Ye Qing was very happy, so he found an excuse to send Gu Shi'an out.

When the two arrived in the living room, Chen Xiao said, "I'll go out for a while."

Chen Xun came over just now, and Gu Shi'an had a lot to ask.He wanted to go out, obviously there was no way to ask.After a moment of hesitation, she finally asked, "Where are you going?"

Ever since she saw the blood stains on Chen Xiao's shirt that night, she knew that Chen Xiao's current situation was far from being as calm as it seemed.

Chen Xiao grunted and said, "Assistant Sun has something to do." He looked at the time and said, "Even if you come back at night, you will come back very late. Go to bed early and don't wait for me."

This means that it may not come back.

If Gu Shi'an wanted to ask, he could only find time to ask again. He nodded and said yes, and then added: "I'll call you tonight."

She was anxious, although the worry on her face did not show.But Chen Xiao knew what she was worried about.

He reached out and patted her on the head, and said yes briskly.He stretched out his hand to hug her again, and then said in a low voice, "Let's go."

His arms are warm.

Gu Shi'an's face was pressed against his chest, and he said yes in a muffled manner.

Chen Xiao let go of her and walked out towards the door.After walking for a few steps, he fell back, raised his eyebrows, and said, "What do you want to eat, I'll bring it back for you if I have time."

There was a little more warmth between the two of them now, Gu Shi'an intentionally put on a relaxed look, and said, "You can eat whatever you want."

Chen Xiao nodded, and walked out without staying any longer.

His car drove out of the yard quickly, and Gu Shi'an stood there for a long time.He didn't enter the house until his body was freezing cold.

And Chen Xiao drove out of the yard, but did not leave immediately.He stopped by the side of the road, took out a cigarette and started smoking.

After smoking a cigarette, he took out his mobile phone and dialed a number.Then restarted the car.

Chen Xiao really didn't come back for dinner that night, but Gu Shi'an's phone rang after he went upstairs.

It was an unfamiliar number, she checked it and picked it up.

Just after feeding, a gentle voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sister-in-law, it's me, Chen Xun."

Gu Shi'an was disgusted, and frowned.But she knew that Chen Xun would not call for no reason.She asked now, "What's the matter?"

She is distant and indifferent.I hate Chen Xun from the bottom of my heart.He is obviously a small person, but he insists on pretending to be a modest gentleman.

Chen Xun smiled slightly on the other end of the phone, pondered for a while on purpose, and said, "I have something here, I think sister-in-law, you will be very interested."

When he called at this time, Gu Shi'an originally thought that he wanted to persuade Chen Xiao to sell the old house to his so-called friend.

After he finished speaking, without waiting for Gu Shi'an to speak, he sighed again: "Sister-in-law, you are really kind to my brother. At this time, you will never leave."

What he said was obviously foreshadowing.Gu Shi'an did not speak, waiting for his next words.

Sure enough, as soon as he changed the subject, he immediately said again: "However, I don't know whether sister-in-law is worth it or not." He sighed at this point.

Gu Shi'an was too lazy to listen to his detours now, and said, "If you have something to say, just say it."

Chen Xun laughed and said, "Sister-in-law is indeed a straightforward person. I called to tell sister-in-law that your sincerity and sincerity may have been paid by mistake. If you treat people well, people may not treat you with the same heart. you."

He deliberately paused here, and said: "My brother, we are having a candlelight dinner now. I have to say that he is quite calm when the fire is almost burning. He still doesn't forget to make his first love happy."

He sighed.

Without him specifically pointing it out, Gu Shi'an also knew who the first love he was talking about was.

She said lightly: "Is there anything else?"

His behavior seemed to be expected by Chen Xun, and he asked: "Sister-in-law, don't you think you are not worth it? So many years of understanding have been spent on him, and in the end, he missed Yes, only the red rose on the tip of the heart. I guess, sister-in-law, you should give him all your savings for this matter, right?"

He didn't wait for Gu Shi'an to answer, and said to himself: "But as far as I know, he seems to have bought that expensive car recently. Including the real estate under that name, there should be My brother's handwriting. Even at this time, it is still kept secret to prevent her from knowing the real situation. I have to say, my brother has deep affection for her. It's just that I have suffered for you, sister-in-law. "

He was able to finish his point, sighed at this point, and said: "I don't want you to be kept in the dark, sister-in-law. I sent some things to your mailbox. If you are interested, sister-in-law, please take a look. If you are not interested, delete it directly, just pretend that I have not made this call."

After he finished speaking, he stopped talking nonsense and hung up the phone directly.

There was a busy beeping sound from the phone, but Gu Shian held the phone without moving.Chen Xun is not what it used to be now, and everything has been prepared for her.

He had worked so hard to prepare, if she didn't read it, wouldn't it be a waste of his painstaking efforts.

Gu Shi'an put the phone aside and turned on the computer.

There was no sound in the bedroom at this moment.Gu Shian had already turned off the light, only the dim light of the notebook.

She hadn't looked at her mailbox for a long time, and there were several emails in it.The latest one was sent 10 minutes ago and has no title.

Without thinking about it, I knew it was sent by Chen Xun, and Gu Shi'an clicked on it directly.

The things Chen Xun said she was interested in were not only pictures, but also videos.Each one is a photo of Chen Xiao and Li Ran together.Although there is no intimate thing between the two, it is not difficult to see the intimacy between the two.Every frown and smile of Li Ran is shy like a little girl.

The last video is obviously the candlelight dinner that Chen Xun mentioned.The shooting angle is good.The video is so clear that you can even see the blush on Li Ran's face.The time is tonight.

Gu Shi'an just read the beginning, then turned off the computer, and sat in the dark without moving.

She is not stupid, so she naturally knew that this was Chen Xun's plan to alienate her.There must be a purpose for Chen Xun to show her these things.Otherwise, how could it be so troublesome.

However, the company is now in his hands.What else does he want to do?Gu Shi'an couldn't figure it out and closed his eyes in the dark.

After about ten minutes, her cell phone rang again.The call was also from Chen Xun, and he called in a hurry.I guess she has already read the email.

Gu Shi'an looked at the number and picked it up.This time without waiting for Chen Xun to speak, she asked, "What do you mean by showing me these?"

Chen Xiao chuckled lightly on the other end of the phone, and said, "Sister-in-law, don't you ever think of me as a good person? I'll show you these, so naturally I don't want you to be kept in the dark again." After a slight pause, He went on to say: "I don't know, sister-in-law, do you have any thoughts after reading this? Do you think it's not worth it?"

Gu Shi'an on the phone didn't speak, and after a while, he said, "So what if it's not worth it?"

Although her tone was restrained and calm, it was difficult to conceal the exhaustion and unwillingness inside.

Chen Xun laughed and said, "Sister-in-law, if you think it's not worth it, I'll help you. Sister-in-law, you should know that I have this ability now."

His tone was calm, as if he was talking about something worth celebrating.

Gu Shi'an's heart skipped a beat, and he asked, "How are you going to help me?"

Chen Xun on the other end of the phone laughed and said: "Sister-in-law, you are too emotional now. In order to avoid regrets, it is not suitable to talk about such things. You should wait for you to calm down and think about it before talking to me. I will wait for your Telephone."

His tone can be described as gentle.After a pause, she smiled on the other end of the phone and said, "It's getting late, sister-in-law should go to bed early."

After saying this, he didn't say any more, and hung up the phone directly.

Gu Shi'an sat in the dark without moving, and went to bed after a long time.I closed my eyes.

Chen Xun threw out chips, so naturally he wouldn't 'help' her in vain.Her fingers curled up unconsciously and clenched tightly. She knew too well that this was the best chance to get close to him.

Chen Xun is conceited.He didn't even have the slightest suspicion about what she said on the phone just now.It was as if he controlled her mind.

Gu Shian clenched his fingers even tighter, restraining himself to calm down.

It was past twelve o'clock when Chen Xiao came back, the yard was quiet, and the sound of the car was a bit harsh in the middle of the night.

He didn't stay below for long, and went upstairs soon.Gu Shian closed his eyes.

The door was quickly opened, and Chen Xiao walked directly to the bed.As if knowing that Gu Shi'an was not asleep, he reached the bedside and patted her on the head lightly, and said, "Get up, I brought you a midnight snack."

There was a smile in his tone.

Gu Shi'an could only open his eyes, sat up, and touched his nose.

What Chen Xiao brought back was a barbecue. He took something and put it on a small table, and said, "The owner of the shop I know roasted it. It's clean and hygienic. You can eat it with confidence."

Gu Shi'an hummed, got out of bed, and said, "How do you know I'm not asleep?"

Chen Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Of course I know."

He didn't explain how he knew it, and went into the bathroom after speaking.Soon there was the sound of rushing water in the bathroom.

The portion of the barbecue that Chen Xiao brought back was for two people, and besides meat, there were also some vegetables.Gu Shi'an came out without eating much.Wiping her hair, she said, "Although you can't eat too much, it's okay to eat a little once in a while. Change your taste. You've eaten less recently. If you want to eat, tell auntie and let auntie do it. You should eat more now, I consulted the doctor, and the doctor said that if you can’t eat enough, you should eat less and eat more, and drink more nutritious tonic soup.”

He doesn't have to worry about eating here at the old house, when they come back, Ye Qing almost always has a very hearty meal.It's just that Gu Shi'an didn't say anything about it, and neither did he.I don't know if I want to wait for a while, or if I have other plans.

But if he didn't say anything, Gu Shi'an was obviously relieved.

Gu Shian nodded now.

Chen Xiao quickly dried her hair and sat down on the sofa beside her.Almost subconsciously, he reached out and touched Gu Shian's stomach through his pajamas.

Gu Shian's body froze.He felt it, and immediately withdrew his hand, touched his face with his hand, and said, "Hands are a little cold."

What he said was a little embarrassing, just like a child who made a mistake.He asked again, "Will it move?"

He had asked this question before, and somehow he forgot.Gu Shi'an immediately said: "It will take a few months before we can move."

Chen Xiao groaned, then stared at Gu Shian's stomach for a while.Then he got up and poured her a glass of water.

He acted nonchalantly, Gu Shi'an finished a bunch of barbecue in his hand, and then asked: "I came back early, have things been dealt with?"

Chen Xiao nodded, and said vaguely, "It's been dealt with."

Gu Shi'an nodded, fell silent for a while, and said, "Chen Xun said today..."

She wanted to ask about financial loopholes.

It's just that Chen Xiao interrupted her before she could speak. She brought water and handed it to her, and said lightly, "I'll take care of it, don't think about it."

He has always avoided it.

Gu Shi'an didn't speak anymore.

After Chen Xiao finished speaking, he acted nonchalantly, and asked what he had for dinner.I also asked Qi Shiyun.

Gu Shi'an didn't eat much, and Chen Xiao didn't eat much either. Finally, Chen Xiao cleaned up the leftover barbecue.

It was almost one o'clock before the two of them lay down on the bed.Chen Xiao let his hands warm up, and then put them on Gu Shian's stomach, and said softly: "From now on, go to bed early, go to bed early and get up early, it's good for the baby."

Compared with a few days ago, he seems to have entered this role now.Even the voice is soft.After a slight pause, he continued, "I asked Assistant Sun to make an appointment for a prenatal check-up next month, and I will go with you when the time comes."

He actually made another appointment for a maternity checkup.Gu Shi'an couldn't help but startled for a moment.The sleepy man who had already arrived ran away without a trace, and said falteringly: "Didn't you say that the birth checkup will take a few months?"

Chen Xiao said now: "Didn't I go with you last time, this time I will accompany you."

Gu Shi'an muttered vaguely and fell silent.

It's late, it's time to go to bed.Chen Xiao hugged her carefully again, and said, "It's getting late, go to bed."

Gu Shi'an said yes and closed his eyes.

There are so many things on her mind, how can she sleep.Afraid of disturbing Chen Xiao beside her, she lay stiff and did not move.It took a long time before I restrained myself from thinking about anything and closed my eyes.

Chen Xiao came back late, but left early in the morning.When Gu Shian woke up, there was no one around him.She thought that Chen Xiao had gone downstairs, but she didn't know that he had gone out early until she didn't see him when she went downstairs.

Ye Qing was smiling, and said: "I'll go shopping later. Chen Xiao said when he left today, ask Auntie to give you more supplements, you are too thin."

Even though he has an aunt, Ye Qing always likes to do things by himself.

Ye Qing was joking in his words, he brought breakfast out after he finished speaking.

Qi Shiyun used to get up late, but these days she gets up early.After the breakfast was served, she had already walked around outside and came back.

Chen Xiao was not there, and the breakfast table was silent.What Chen Xun said later last night is still in her mind, she wants to go to Chang'an.

She didn't know anything about Chen Xun's affairs except that he was working with Xiao Si.She must, to some extent, find out the details.

I don't know if Chen Xiao told her or what, she said she was going out, Ye Qing smiled and asked the driver to take her there.Without waiting for her to speak, he called the driver.

The driver Ye Qing called was none other than Gu Shian's father's former driver, Lao Fang.Gu Shi'an didn't expect Lao Fang to stay, and was stunned when he saw him.

Lao Fang smiled honestly and said: "I was going back, but Mr. Chen asked me to stay. He also found a school for the child. He also found a job for the child's mother."

The work on the construction site is hard work, but it is obviously easier here.

Now that Chen Xiao couldn't protect himself, he still thought of these things.Gu Shi'an didn't know how he felt in his heart.

Lao Fang obviously knew about the situation of Chen Xiao's company, but he was optimistic.On the way, he comforted Gu Shi'an, saying that Chen is always a good person, and good people will be good in the end.

Although Chen Xiao asked him to stay, he was not Chen Xiao's driver.It was to send children to and from school for others, and the other party liked his honesty.Salary is good and there are bonuses.He lives near here, and today is a part-time job because he happens to be off.

There is very little travel here in the old house, and the driver has already been fired.Most of the time when I want to go out, I call him.

Lao Fang didn't talk much, and after sending Gu Shi'an to Chang's shop, he said that he was shopping nearby, and asked Gu Shi'an to go back and call him.

Gu Shi'an asked him to go back first, saying that he might go back later.Then contact him again.

Lao Fang hesitated for a moment, but finally nodded.
