Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 43

Gu Shi'an was calm. After get off work, grandma asked Uncle Fu to send money.She directly transferred the account to Chang Yu and told her that she had an engagement tonight and couldn't go there.I'll go to see Xiao Huzi after get off work.

Chang Li didn't doubt that there was him, and thanked her sincerely, and promised that he would return the money to her.

Gu Shi'an's politeness to her was a bit helpless, and he asked her to pay the fee to set the time of the operation, and then hung up the phone.

Pedestrians were hurrying on the street, she was slightly in a trance.Immediately took a taxi to Kaifeng.It wasn't until seven o'clock when she arrived, and she didn't call Chen Xiao, she just sat in the corner of the hall.His eyes stayed on the door.

She thought that she would have a bad mood more or less, but in fact, her heart was peaceful.For some reason, she suddenly remembered Chen Xiaolai from the night she was looking for Chang Wei.

She didn't even know why he suddenly started targeting her again.

Gu Shi'an laughed at himself slightly, but this is actually normal.She is to Chen Xiao...

She closed her eyes and didn't think about it any further.Just sat there blankly, staring at the door.

She came and waited early because she was afraid that Chen Xiao would play tricks temporarily.But at eight o'clock, Chen Xiao's figure still did not appear.

Gu Shi'an squeezed the phone in her hand tightly, and when it was a few minutes before eight o'clock, she dialed Chen Xiao's number.As she expected, a mechanical and cold female voice came from the phone, indicating that it was turned off.

That's right, Chen Xiao has always had a lot of means in this regard. After so many years, she should be used to it.

Waiting now is actually nothing, she even waited on the side of the road for most of the night in the cold winter months.

Gu Shi'an was slightly in a trance, her heart was cold, she should be angry, but a faint smile appeared on the corner of her lips.

She took a deep breath, stood up, and walked to the front desk.

The front desk is polite. I heard that she is looking for someone, so she doesn't answer whether someone is there.Just ask if there is an appointment.

Gu Shi'an smiled and said that he had made an appointment and asked her to come here.But now the other party's mobile phone is turned off.

The front desk hesitated for a while, and said that he had to ask first.Ask Gu Shi'an to wait a moment.

Although it was not specified, it was obvious that Chen Xiao was here.Gu Shi'an was not surprised at all. Since Chen Xiao wanted to make things difficult for her, he naturally wanted to see her.Just make the process more tortuous.

Gu Shi'an nodded with a smile, and stood quietly on the side.

It was probably Chen Xiao who said hello, but the front desk didn't call in front of Gu Shi'an, but hurried to find the manager.

Gu Shi'an stood there for about three or four minutes before the front desk came back, apologized, and said politely: "Mr. Chen said please go up."

Gu Shi'an smiled and said thank you.The front desk took her to the elevator, told her the room number, and pressed the elevator floor number for her, before stepping aside.

Gu Shi'an looked at the elevator floors all the way. At this moment, she should be worried.But the strange thing is that there is no wave in her heart.It was as calm as a pool of stagnant water.

The numbers on the elevator kept changing, and when they reached the floor, Gu Shi'an paused slightly before walking out.

Standing in front of the room, she numbly reached out and knocked on the door.Just made a phone call, Chen Ying should have known that she was coming up.But she waited at the door for 5 minutes before the door was opened.

He was probably in the shower just now, wearing a bathrobe, and his thick hair was still dripping.Without even looking at Gu Shi'an, he opened the door and walked inside.

Gu Shi'an paused for a moment, then walked in and closed the door.

The room here is much bigger than she imagined, and some daily necessities are randomly placed.It can be seen that Chen Xiao lives here.

Probably those days and nights when he didn't go back, he was here.

Gu Shi'an was slightly in a daze, obviously he was well prepared when he came.It was only at this moment that she realized that speaking was actually difficult.

Chen Xiao quickly took out a cigarette and lit it, without saying a word, his long and narrow eyes stared at Gu Shi'an so coldly.

The huge room was extremely silent for a while, not even the sound of a needle falling on the ground.

Gu Shi'an finally looked up at him, but she couldn't pronounce Mr. Chen, and said with difficulty: "I want to talk to you about the price of materials."

There was a sneer on Chen Xiao's lips, he stretched out his hand to brush the cigarette ash in his hand, and said with a smile or not: "What are you going to talk to me about?"

There was no concealment in his tone of contempt.

That's right, what did she use to talk to him?If she had enough chips in her hand, she wouldn't come to beg him.He hit the nail on the head.

He knew everything clearly, so asking that was just to remind her.

She was exhausted, and she was no stranger to such Chen Xiao.He has been like this to her all the time in the past.

Gu Shi'an's face was calm, and he looked at Chen Xiao with a pair of eyes that did not show any waves, and said, "You saw me, so I should still have some merits."

Her tone was calm and numb.

Chen Xiao glanced at her with a smile on his face, approached slowly, stretched out his hand to lift her chin, put it close to her ear, and said casually: "You do have a lot of merits. "

As he spoke, he looked at her slightly open shirt.The few words of merit are specially bitten a little hard.

After a slight pause, the corners of his mouth curled into a bit of sarcasm, and he said word by word: "But do you think I'm rare?"

He backed away as he said that, his eyes were cold.

Yes, he is indeed not rare.Gu Shi'an laughed at himself a little bit, she couldn't afford to lose this business.

Chang'an needed money, and she had to pay back the old lady's money as soon as possible.If Gu Su and the others find out about her borrowing money from the old lady, they don't know what will happen.

She was silent for a while, then asked, "What do you want?"

What he wanted was to torture and humiliate her?Then she let him torture and humiliate her.

As if he was sure that he had already eaten her, Chen Xiao shrugged his shoulders, exhaled smoke, and said with a half-smile: "I don't want to do anything." After a slight pause, he continued: "You have to know, it's you Come to me. If you want a low price, take out your chips."

He was a little lazy, his eyes stayed on Gu Shi'an for a moment, he took a step forward, whispered into her ear and said, "It also depends on what identity you use to talk to me."

Gu Shi'an's body froze, she took half a step back, looked up at Chen Xiao, smiled faintly, and said: "I'm stupid, please speak up if you have something to say. There's no need to be so devious." .”

The sneer at the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth reappeared, and he puffed out another mouthful of smoke, saying, "Are you stupid? You're really too humble."

There was sarcasm in his tone.Faintly with anger.

He got angry for no reason, Gu Shi'an suppressed all his exhaustion and said, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Chen Xiao suddenly took a step forward, squeezed her chin, and forced her to look at him. The sarcasm at the corner of his mouth became more intense, and he said word by word: "Gu Shi'an, I really underestimated you. Dare you Have you been hiding your courage all those years? You clearly know that grandma is in poor health and cannot be stimulated. Are you secretly packing up and moving away, are you trying to catch me off guard? "

His eyes were gloomy, and the strength in his hand was very strong, as if he wanted to crush Gu Shian's jaw.

Gu Shi'an now remembered the light that she had turned off but was on last night.

In just this moment, her chin has turned red a lot.But as if she couldn't feel the pain, she met Chen Xiao's eyes, smiled faintly, and said, "It turns out that I have been just that person in your eyes for so many years."

Chen Xiao remained unmoved, snorted, and said, "Are you still trying to quibble? It seems that you really want that contract."

He didn't talk nonsense to Gu Shi'an, and dropped her chin.He walked to the sofa and sat down, took out another cigarette and lit it, and said with a smile or not: "You can want it, as long as you please me, I will give it to you."

He was indifferent.It seemed that Gu Shi'an was not his wife, but just something that couldn't be put on the table.

Gu Shi'an's heart felt icy cold.

Chen Xiao looked at her coldly, the corners of his lips curled up with evil spirits, he stood up and looked down at her, and said in a very frivolous low voice: "I think this business is quite a deal, sleep once is sleep, sleep is good." One hundred times is sleep, isn't it?"

Gu Shi'an didn't speak, just stood there stiffly for dozens of seconds, then smiled lightly and said, "It's quite a bargain."

She said without waiting for Chen Xiao to say anything, she stretched out her hand and unbuttoned them one by one, releasing all the restraints.Then she stepped forward slightly, stretched out her hand and tore open Chen Xiao's bathrobe.Naked on his body.

Chen Xiao looked at it coldly, and inexplicably felt a little irritated.

Gu Shi'an closed her eyes, and the moment she fell on the bed, she was suddenly very disheartened.

He didn't end his tossing until midnight.Gu Shi'an couldn't bear it any longer, and fell into a drowsy sleep.

When he woke up the next morning, Chen Xiao was no longer on the bed.He tossed so hard that her legs were trembling when she got out of bed.His whole body was bruised and purple, and he was so sore as if he had been crushed.

Gu Shi'an tried his best to hold on, and picked up the clothes on the ground one by one in a daze.

When he went out, Chen Xiao was actually there, still wearing a bathrobe, standing in front of the big French window and talking on the phone.

Gu Shi'an didn't leave in a hurry, and just stood aside.

It took a while for Chen Xiao to finish talking on the phone. She didn't look at him and asked calmly, "Is Manager Chu signing the contract?"

The person I met yesterday was the department manager of Chen Xiao's company.

Her back was straight, Chen Xiao probably didn't expect her to say such a sentence, and the corners of her lips curled into a hint of sarcasm.

He didn't say much, turned around and took out a contract from the side, signed his name in a swish, then stamped the pen and threw it aside.

Gu Shi'an was still calm, stepped forward to pick up the contract, thanked Mr. Chen very politely, and then walked out.

Chen Xiao had a sullen look on his face, and just as the door was closed, he swept the ashtray on the table to the ground.

Gu Shi'an entered the elevator in a daze, her body was in severe pain, and when she got into the elevator and looked at the figure on the elevator wall, she realized that her face was extremely pale.

Now is not the time to rest, after leaving the hotel, she went to the pharmacy to buy painkillers and took it, then went home to take a shower, changed clothes to cover up all the bruises all over her body, and then went straight to the company.

It is enviable that she won such a big order. When she went to make coffee, she met Luo Yun.She smiled and called Senior Sister Gu, and said hypocritically, "Sister Gu, you are really good, you won such a big order so quickly. Mr. Qu's bonus is indispensable."

Gu Shi'an smiled lightly and said, "No matter how good you are, you can't do it right? You just got such a big order when you first came to the company. There's no place for us people to put our face on."

Luo Yun blew on the coffee in her hand, looked at Gu Shi'an with a smile, and said, "That's all thanks to Senior Sister Gu for your advice that night. Speaking of which, I have to treat you to dinner."

She's really thick-skinned.

Gu Shian's mouthful of blood choked in his throat, and he wanted to pour a cup of hot coffee on Luo Yun's smug face.After all, she endured it, said something polite with a smile or not, and went out with coffee.

On this day, Gu Shi'an was a little mentally ill.Xiao Wang was delighted that she signed the contract back, and asked her repeatedly how she won it.

Gu Shi'an just said lightly that he would treat the other manager to a meal.

Xiao Wang didn't have any doubts. Seeing that she was not in good spirits, he let her rest for a while, and she would deal with things.I'm really anxious to let her deal with it.

Gu Shi'an couldn't hold it anymore, so he nodded in response.

Although she was resting, she was in a daze.I have been dreaming, for a while, it is the scene of my childhood, and for a while, it is the funeral of my parents.

When she woke up, there was a dense layer of sweat on her forehead, and she sat blankly for a while before standing up.

As soon as he came back from the bathroom to wash his face, Xiao Wang knocked on the office door and said with a smile, "Sister Gu, it's time for lunch. I heard that the food in the cafeteria is improving today, so let's go early."

She stuck out her tongue as she spoke.

Gu Shi'an smiled and said hello.

The two went early, and there were very few people in the cafeteria.As Xiao Wang said, there are plenty of dishes in the cafeteria at noon today.Braised pork in brown sauce, sweet and sour pork ribs, and Sixi meatballs are all dishes that are rarely seen.

Gu Shi'an was surprised, and when he ordered the dishes and sat down, he asked Xiao Wang curiously: "How do you know that today's dishes are more abundant?"

Xiao Wang shook his head, smiled mysteriously and said, "It's a secret, you can't tell it."

Gu Shi'an cut it up, took a piece of braised pork and started to bite.

Xiao Wang chuckled and said, "I didn't eat breakfast this morning, so I went to the cafeteria several times. The master chef there told me."

While the two were talking, Luo Yun walked over with several colleagues.Xiao Wang didn't bother to raise his head, and snorted lowly from his nose.

Luo Yun didn't come over, she smiled and called Senior Sister Gu, and sat down at the next table.

Compared to Gu Shian and Xiao Wang's deserted side, her side can be called extremely lively.Showing off her newly bought shoes and bags, after finishing talking, she talked about her best friend's boyfriend.

Her best friend is beautiful, and has had countless suitors since junior high school.Her boyfriend has been chasing her for many years, and he treats her so well.Just like this time, Mr. Yang's contract was won by her best friend, and her boyfriend won it for her.

There was a lot of heat over there, Gu Shi'an listened expressionlessly, and left after gnawing on the last piece of ribs.

After working overtime at night until after [-] o'clock, she called Chang Yu when she left the company, and asked her if she was in the hospital now, and whether Xiaohuzi's operation time had been arranged.

Chang Li replied yes, saying that he was going to have surgery tomorrow.

Gu Shi'an nodded and told her that he would be there now.He asked Chang Chen if he had eaten anything, and she brought them there.

Chang Li replied that he ate it.

Gu Shi'an casually ate a bowl of noodles on the side of the road, bought some supplements and fruits, and then drove over.

Pedestrians were in a hurry on the street at night, but the bus was not crowded. Gu Shi'an took two stops and there was a seat vacant.She sat down and rested her head on the car window to doze off.

When I arrived at the hospital, Chang was actually waiting at the door.Gu Shi'an stepped forward quickly, looked back and forth, and asked, "Why did you get down?"

Chang Yan took the things in her hand, smiled, and said, "I guess you should be here and come down."

The two went upstairs, talking about Xiao Huzi's condition, the risks of the operation, etc. along the way.Gu Shian listened and nodded from time to time.

Xiao Huzi had already been transferred to the general ward, and just as he arrived at the door, Xiao Huzi's mother, who had been waiting by the side, knelt down on the ground, wanting to kowtow to Gu Shi'an.

The plump woman who used to be neat and tidy has lost a lot of weight and aged a lot in such a short period of time.There are many white hairs on the head.

Gu Shi'an's heart was so sore, how could he let her kowtow to him, he dropped his things and quickly helped her up.

Gu Shi'an stayed in the ward until after nine o'clock, until the doctor reminded Xiao Huzi that it was time to rest, and then she and Chang Li left the ward.

Because I don't know whether tomorrow's operation will be good or bad, the atmosphere is a bit depressing.As soon as he left the ward, he lit a cigarette and started smoking.After a while, he said in a low voice: "Shi'an, thank you very much."

After a slight pause, a bit of sarcasm appeared on her face, and she continued: "Yesterday, Xiao Huzi's mother went to find that man. I heard that life is going well now, and the family has two cars. Listen Said that his son was sick, as if he was being entangled, but even said that he had no son."

Chang Li sneered as he spoke, and kicked the wall hard.

Gu Shi'an wanted to say something, but couldn't find anything to comfort him for a while.She has already seen the greed, indifference and ruthlessness of human nature in the Gu family.

She thought of Little Huzi's mother.In the eyes of outsiders, she is undoubtedly pitiful.But she herself is optimistic. As long as her son's illness can be cured, she will not be afraid no matter how hard or tired she is.

She is usually busy, working several jobs every day and only resting for four hours.Because my son was going to have an operation, I asked for leave today to stay with Xiao Huzi in the hospital.

But even so, her meager salary was difficult to maintain in the follow-up treatment of Xiao Huzi.

Gu Shi'an wanted to open his mouth to say something, but in the end he didn't say anything.When I got to the hospital gate, I said to Chang Qi: "I won't come tomorrow, I'll come back after get off work."

After a slight pause, she forced a smile and said, "The medicine is good for Xiao Huzi. I just received a big order, and there will be a lot of bonuses."

Chang Li looked at her, speechless for a moment.After a long time, she said thank you.She had said enough to thank her, she gave a wry smile, and said, "We are the ones who dragged you down."

Gu Shi'an told her not to think about it, and told her not to send it off, but to go back and have a good rest.

She still watched Chang Li enter the hospital, and then walked slowly to the car alone.The dense wrinkles that suddenly appeared on Little Huzi's mother's face appeared again in her mind.My heart suddenly ached sharply.

She suddenly thought of her parents.The scene when my father was carried up from the bottom of the cliff suddenly came to my mind.

The pain spread more rapidly, she walked to the bus stop and sat down in a trance.Once a seed of doubt is planted, it will grow and germinate rapidly.

Besides, there is nothing that the Gu family can't do.

Gu Shi'an closed his eyes and leaned his head on the cold seat.

After a long time, when the icy drizzle fell on her face, she opened her eyes.Occasionally, the bus stopped, and she looked at it blankly. At that moment, she didn't even know where she should go, and where was her shelter.

She got into the car after a while, and instead of going back to the house over there, she went directly to the house left by her parents.

The house is in an old community, but the environment is quiet.She would come back every so often to clean up the dust.

Because of the long-term cleaning, although the house is cold, it is clean.

There are too many memories here, Gu Shian stood at the entrance in a daze for a long time before entering the house.

She didn't go back to the house to sleep, but went to the study and flipped through the things left by her father.

After the mother passed away, because there were too many memories here, and no one took care of her, they didn't live here, but lived in the old house.

Gu Shi'an carefully searched through the letters and paper in the study, but he didn't find anything suspicious.

This was actually expected. Originally, she didn't stay here much, and her father left suddenly. Even if there were any clues left, it was impossible for her to be here.

Gu Shi'an put everything back together, and watched the lamp on the desk remain motionless for a while.Maybe, she should go to the study at the Gu family's side.

Only now did she realize it.She has always been a competent daughter.After her father passed away, she was immersed in grief.I don't even know how to deal with the things my father left behind.
