Chapter 241
Gu Shi'an fell asleep in Chen Xiao's arms in a daze. The two hadn't been so close for a long time. She buried her face in his chest and curled up in his arms.

Although Chen Xiao had drunk, he fell asleep behind her, kissed her forehead lightly, and then closed his eyes.

Chen Xiao was woken up the next morning by the vibrating sound of his mobile phone. His sleep has been shallow recently. As soon as the mobile phone vibrated, he woke up immediately.Afraid of waking Gu Shian up, he immediately hung up the phone.He got off the bed with bare feet and walked directly to the bathroom.Then called back.

When he just got up, his voice was still hoarse, and he asked, "What's the matter?"

Assistant Sun was on the other side of the phone, and he said in a low voice: "Someone called my number from an unfamiliar number, saying that someone wants to see you. Let you go over."

The conversation on the phone was vague, and Assistant Sun paused for a while, and then continued: "I suspect that the person who called to see you should be Mr. Chen. He didn't call directly, so he should He was afraid that people would stare at him."

That's right, Chen Zhengkang has no other skills, but he has the ability to save his life.Otherwise, it would be impossible for such a long time without any audio.
With a faint expression on Chen Xiao's face, he asked, "Where is it?"

Assistant Sun told the story now.

Chen Xiao was silent for a moment, and asked him to book a ticket there.

Assistant Sun agreed, and quickly hung up the phone.

Chen Xiao didn't go back to the bedroom right away, but just stayed in the bathroom.He closed his eyes and leaned against the wall.

I have to say that Chen Zhengkang is indeed smart.If he really knew something, it was undoubtedly the safest to hide in the field.He knew about Xiao Si's influence in the local area. If he was in the local area, he would have been dug out long ago.

Chen Xiao had no expression on his face. After standing there for a while, Assistant Sun called again and told him that the ticket had been booked.

Chen Xiao hummed lightly, and hung up the phone directly.

In the bedroom, Gu Shi'an was in a deep sleep. He smoked another cigarette in the bathroom before returning to the bedroom.Quietly staring at Gu Shi'an's sleeping face, after a long time, he changed into his clothes.

Assistant Sun came over quickly, but the car stopped outside at seven o'clock.When he called again, Chen Xiao didn't answer, just hung up, closed the door gently and went downstairs.

It was still bright outside, and even Aunt Ye got up late when the weather was cold, and it was quiet downstairs.Chen Xiao quietly walked through the living room and out of the yard.

Assistant Sun's car was parked outside quietly, when he saw Chen Xiao, he got out of the car and opened the door for him.

The car was warm, and Chen Xiao asked after sitting in the car, "What time does the plane leave?"

Assistant Sun looked at the time and said, "08:30, there is still an hour and a half."

From here to the airport, there should be some time left.

Chen Xiao nodded now.After a pause, he asked, "When did you make the call?"

Assistant Sun then replied: "It was called last night in the early hours of the morning. I wanted to tell you, but it was already too late by then. I couldn't get there either."

That's why I called him at dawn.

Chen Xiao nodded, not knowing what he thought of, and said calmly: "Take me to the office first." After a slight pause, he continued: "Find a car and wait by the back door."

Assistant Sun was slightly taken aback when he heard his words, and then he reacted, answered yes, and immediately called.

He arranged it quickly.Chen Xiao closed his eyes for a moment, and then continued, "Ask two people to come to the office. They will be here tonight. By the way, find an excuse to release the news, saying that this side is already in a state of desperation."

Assistant Sun naturally knew what he meant, so he immediately said hello.

Since Chen Zhengkang was so careful, it meant that Chen Xun's people should have been watching him all the time.If he left so openly, at such a juncture, he would naturally be able to deduce that he was going to see Chen Zhengkang.At that time, Chen Zhengkang's situation will be dangerous.

Now, even if Chen Xun realized the scene of being overwhelmed, it was obviously not easy to find someone in a strange city.

Of course, the best thing is that he meets Chen Zhengkang before Chen Xun knows, and then comes back.

The car was quiet for a while, Assistant Sun looked at the road ahead, hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Mr. Chen, where is the wife..."

Although he didn't finish his words, Chen Xiao knew what he meant.He didn't speak immediately, but after a while, he said, "Get someone to follow her, and try to keep her from going out as much as possible. I will come back as soon as possible."

Assistant Sun replied yes and stopped talking.

When the two arrived at the company, Chen Xiao left through the back door without stopping.Assistant Sun didn't see him off, but turned on the lights in the office.

On the way to the airport, Chen Xiao kept his eyes closed and dozed off. Whether it was He Shuqing's face or Chen Xun's face, he had already seen through it.

He used to hate Chen Zhengkang, and hoped that he would suffer a lot from the mother and son.But now that this thing has really happened, he is not happy at all.

Since Chen Zhengkang hid in another place, it meant that he knew very well what would happen if he fell into Chen Xun's hands.It also shows that he already knows the faces of the mother and child.

Chen Xiao's lips were tightly pursed, and he just closed his eyes on the back seat of the car.

This side is not far from the airport. When he got off the bus, the driver in front called Mr. Chen and handed him the ticket and a peaked cap.
Chen Xiao took it, put the hat on, opened the door and got out of the car, and walked towards the airport.

He got out of the car, and the driver got out of the car too.Following him step by step, he said in a low voice: "Assistant Sun told me to follow you. In case there is anything, there is a helper."

That's right, he is out of town alone, so he can't do anything.What has to be guarded against is that there is fraud over there.

If the person over there is not Chen Zhengkang, but a trick of Xiao Sixia, then the consequences will be disastrous.

Chen Xiao naturally knew what Assistant Sun meant, and the corner of his mouth curled into a sneer, and he said lightly: "They don't have the strength to set up this situation yet. Don't follow me. Go and look at the old house."

His figure paused slightly, and he strode towards the airport without waiting for anyone to answer.

The man stood where he was, but still didn't follow after all.He took out his mobile phone and called Assistant Sun.

When Gu Shi'an woke up, Chen Xiao was no longer there. He took out his mobile phone to check, only to find that there was a text message on it, which was sent by Chen Xiao.Tell her he's on a business trip.

It seemed that his body temperature remained on the quilt, and Gu Shi'an lay down for a while before getting out of bed.

The breakfast without Chen Xiao was quiet, and no one spoke at the table.

Qi Shiyun was as usual, went upstairs after breakfast.Gu Shi'an stayed downstairs, helping Ye Qing with some simple things.

When Chen Xun called, Ye Qing was returning to the kitchen, Gu Shi'an looked at the number, and went upstairs quietly.

The phone rang silently all the time. When we arrived in the room, Gu Shi'an picked it up. Just after feeding him, Chen Xun asked softly with a smile, "Sister-in-law, did you go well last night?"

If he asked like this, it meant that Chen Xiao was the one behind the scenes when he drank the wine.

Gu Shi'an's heart sank, and he couldn't help but clenched his fingers tightly.She restrained herself from showing any strangeness, and then said: "I'm afraid I will disappoint you. I didn't succeed."

Chen Xun was silent for a moment, probably dissatisfied.But when he spoke again, he was still like a spring breeze, and said: "It's okay, if you don't succeed once, there will be another time. But sister-in-law, you have to hurry up. If you keep failing, I'm afraid..."

Although he didn't say the latter words, the meaning couldn't be more obvious.

Gu Shi'an ignored him and hung up the phone directly.This time Chen Xun didn't call again.

Gu Shi'an stayed upstairs for a while before going downstairs, Ye Qing was still the only one downstairs, Auntie didn't know where to go after breakfast.

The aunt here is often not here, Gu Shi'an used to pay little attention to this matter, but today he stayed for a while and asked: "Aunt Ye, isn't Aunt here?"

Ye Qing probably didn't expect her to ask, so he couldn't help but startled for a moment, then he reacted and said, "She's gone back."

As if she was afraid that Gu Shi'an would blame her, she hurriedly said, "I asked her to go back." She sighed, and said, "It's not easy for her. My husband used to fall from upstairs at work and became paralyzed." , her son is still in school, and she is the only one with income in the family. Her husband can’t take care of himself, so she has to go back to change his clothes and cook for him. There’s nothing wrong here, so I’ll let her go back and wait until she’s done. come over."

Here are just some simple housework, she can do it.Anyway, there's not much going on.

Ye Qing was somewhat puzzled by Gu Shi'an's sudden question, and then asked: "What's the matter, is she inappropriate?"

She asked a little nervously.After all, I still think that aunt is not easy.

Gu Shi'an smiled slightly and said no.

Ye Qing breathed a sigh of relief, and said: "I know that both you and Chen Xiao want me to relax, but you always think about something when you are idle, so why not find something to do."

She has been with the old lady for many years, and when the old lady is not here, it is as if she has lost her backbone. Her whole body is empty, and doing something is better than nothing.

Ask Gu Shi'an more because he was afraid that she would think wildly, so he changed the subject, saying that he would enroll her in a group after the beginning of spring and let her go out for a walk.

Now Ye Qing waved his hands again and again, saying that she won't go.Traveling by car is even more frustrating.She was too lazy to run around.

As he was talking, Ye Qing asked about Grandma Gu Shi'an's health again with concern, Ye Qing naturally knew something about Gu Chengde's incident when it was a big deal.

Gu Shi'an hadn't seen the old lady for a while, but he made frequent calls.That's all good to say.

Although the old lady left, she couldn't cut off her contact.Ye Qing said to go see the old lady when the weather warms up, Gu Shi'an agreed now.

The two chattered in the living room, Auntie went back and never came back, and Gu Shi'an and Ye Qing cooked lunch together.

It was already afternoon when the aunt came back, and as soon as she entered the yard, she saw Gu Shi'an trimming the leaves of the potted plants under the eaves.She probably didn't expect that Gu Shi'an, who was so cold, would be outside. She was taken aback for a while, and then she stepped forward with a smile on her face and said, "How can I let you do this yourself, I'll just do it."

Gu Shi'an and Chen Xiao usually rarely have time to meet and talk with this aunt.

She seemed to have gone out for a long time to cover herself, but she came back with some vegetables in her hand.

Gu Shi'an smiled and said it was all right.His eyes fell on her hand carrying the vegetables.

The aunt was somewhat uncomfortable, and hurriedly said: "Then you are busy, I will cook." After she finished speaking, she hurried inside.

Gu Shi'an didn't go to see her, he stood outside for a while, and then called Chang Yu.

Chen Xiao said that he was on a business trip, but he never called.Gu Shi'an guessed that he had already rested after ten o'clock in the evening, so he called him.

But I don't know what happened to him. The phone is off and can't be connected.

Gu Shi'an felt a little uneasy, sat on the bed for a while and called Assistant Sun.

Assistant Sun's phone was connected, but he didn't know about Chen Xiaolai when he asked about it, explaining that he should be discussing business.Or the phone is out of battery.

Gu Shi'an stopped asking any more questions and hung up the phone.

She tossed and turned and couldn't sleep that night, and she didn't fall asleep until it was almost dawn.

Chen Xiao couldn't get through on the phone at night, and when he woke up the next morning, Gu Shi'an called him again.But it is the same as at night, it is still turned off.

Gu Shi'an felt a little uneasy and apprehensive in his heart, faintly feeling that something was wrong.Even if Chen Xiao is on a business trip, the phone should not be turned off all the time.

She restrained herself to be calm, and she still couldn't get through the phone at noon, so she went to the office.

She drove there by herself, and Assistant Sun probably didn't expect her to pass by, so he was stunned when he saw her.Then he stepped forward and asked, "Why are you here?"

There are other people in the office, Gu Shi'an restrained his anxiety.After arriving at Chen Xiao's office, he said, "Chen Xiao's phone has been disconnected, is there something wrong?"

She looked straight at Assistant Sun, apparently not giving up until she got an answer.

"You're overthinking, it's okay. Mr. Chen should be back soon." He raised his wrist to look at the time, paused slightly, and then said, "It's cold here, you shouldn't come here, I'll send someone to send you You go back."

Although he had a smile on his face as usual when he said these words, he didn't dare to look at Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an immediately sensed that something was wrong, looked at him straight, and asked, "Is something wrong?"

"You think too much... Mr. Chen..."

He was interrupted by Gu Shi'an before he finished speaking, and she said word by word: "You, Mr. Chen, are not going on a business trip, are you?"

She was perceptive, and Assistant Sun wanted to argue again.But knowing that unless she can get through to Chen Xiao's phone number, she will not let it go. After a moment of silence, she said: "Mr. Chen is really not on a business trip." Mr. Chen. I asked someone to follow him, but he refused. But when he got there, he couldn’t be contacted anymore.”

It was a bit laborious for Assistant Sun to say these words.Chen Xiao had an accident, and the responsibility was on him.He should have arranged more carefully.

Gu Shi'an fell down on the sofa all of a sudden, her mind was in a mess, she raised her head to look at Assistant Sun, and asked, "Is there no other way to contact you?"

Assistant Sun was silent for a while, and said, "No. The person who called me that day used a public phone, and he only knew an address. I have already sent someone over."

He couldn't walk away, if he could, he would have passed by himself long ago.

It's useless to be anxious now, Gu Shi'an calmed himself down, and asked in a hoarse voice, "Can I help?"

"Now we can only wait for the news from there." Assistant Sun replied.After he finished speaking, he looked at the time again, and said, "It's cold here, don't catch a cold if you stay here, I'll send you back, and if there's any news, I'll let you know as soon as possible."

Yes, no matter how anxious you are, you have to wait for the news over there.

Gu Shi'an didn't hold back anymore, nodded and said, "I'll just go back by myself."

Assistant Sun wouldn't worry about her going back alone, and insisted: "I'll send you off. There is also news that Mr. Chen can't be contacted, so we can't disclose it."

Gu Shi'an knew that Chen Xun was watching him, so he nodded.Once again, let Assistant Sun tell her immediately if there is any news.

In the end, Assistant Sun arranged for someone to take Gu Shian back. In order not to let someone follow her and find something strange, she asked the driver to take her to a shop in the city center to buy desserts and other things before returning to the old house.

She was restless, afraid that Ye Qing would see something strange, so she didn't stay below for a long time, and went upstairs directly.

She had just washed her face in the bathroom to wake herself up, when Chang'an called and said that she couldn't find out who the aunt had met for the time being.But what is certain is that the medical expenses owed by the aunt in the hospital have been paid in full.Recently, she even prescribed some imported medicine to her husband.

Gu Shi'an has been able to confirm that the aunt in the old house has been bought.But now it is not possible to startle the snake, and it may be useful to keep it.She thanked Chang Li and hung up the phone.

She was restless when there was no news from Chen Xiao, so she called Chen Xiao from time to time.But every time it is disappointing, his mobile phone is always turned off.

Gu Shi'an couldn't fall asleep even more that night, and had to check his phone from time to time.But it was all disappointing to her. Assistant Sun never called.

If he didn't call, it meant that there was no news from Chen Xiao.

Gu Shi'an couldn't lie down on the bed, turned off the lights and walked back and forth in the bedroom.He didn't fall on the bed until he was extremely tired.

But before she fell asleep, she heard the sound of a car outside.She got up almost immediately.There were indeed lights from a car outside, but the car didn't come in and drove away quickly.Probably passing by.

Gu Shi'an was disappointed in his heart, and he didn't know what kind of psychology he had, so he went downstairs to discredit him.

As soon as he got downstairs, the door was opened.

Chen Xiao didn't come here alone, but supported Chen Zhengkang.He held a dim flashlight in his hand.

Gu Shi'an immediately greeted her, and Chen Xiao didn't ask her why she wasn't asleep yet, but said in a low voice, "Go get a glass of water."

As he spoke, he directly helped Chen Zhengkang upstairs.

Although he couldn't see clearly, since Chen Zhengkang had to rely on him for support, he must have been injured.Gu Shi'an restrained himself to calm down, poured a glass of water and went upstairs quickly.

Chen Xiao brought Chen Zhengkang to the innermost room, pulled down the heavy curtains, and then turned on the light.

When Gu Shian entered, Chen Zhengkang's face was pale. Chen Xiao took out some medicine and handed it to Chen Zhengkang, and took the water glass from Gu Shian's hand.

Both of them were in a state of embarrassment. Chen Zhengkang must have injured his leg, which was bound with bamboo boards and bandages.Although Chen Xiao's clothes were wrinkled, he could move freely, so there should be no injuries.

There should be painkillers in the medicine given by Chen Xiao, and Chen Zhengkang quickly took it and took it.Only then did Chen Xiao ask in a low voice, "Is there anything to eat at home?"

Gu Shi'an said quickly, "I'm going to cook the noodles."

Chen Xiao nodded and said, "I'm going to change clothes."

This was said to Chen Zhengkang.

Gu Shi'an quickly went downstairs. Although she knew that her aunt would not be there at night, she was still worried. She went to the room to confirm that she was really not there, and then went to cook the noodles.

It didn't take long to cook the noodles, and her movements were light and didn't alarm anyone.After the noodles were cooked, Chen Xiao also changed his clothes and came down.He took the noodles in his hand and went upstairs.

The two of them didn't know how long it had been since they had eaten. Chen Zhengkang devoured it completely, and a large bowl of noodles was quickly eaten up.

Chen Xiao didn't have a good face towards him, and when he saw him finish eating, he said calmly: "Stay here for now, don't come out. I'll have the doctor come tomorrow."

Chen Zhengkang was exhausted from the two days of running around, so he nodded and said yes.

Chen Xiao ignored him, closed the door and left.

Coming back in such a state of embarrassment, Chen Xiao originally thought that Gu Shi'an would ask something, but she didn't ask anything, and just put hot water for him to take a bath.

His mobile phone has been turned off all the time, and she hasn't slept in most of the night, so she knows she is worried without even thinking about it.Chen Xiao didn't say anything, just hugged her in his arms when she turned around.

Although he had changed his clothes, he still smelled bad without taking a bath.After just a brief hug, he let go of her and went to take a shower.

Gu Shi'an didn't go to bed, but went downstairs to clean up all the traces of the kitchen before returning upstairs.

When he came back, Chen Xiao had already come out of the shower, his hair was still wet, standing by the window, he didn't know who he was calling.
