Chapter 56
The corner of Gu Shi'an's mouth showed a little bit of imperceptible misery, he took the wine that Qin Tang pushed over, poured a glass and drank slowly.

For the next time, neither of them spoke.Gu Shi'an drank the wine silently, while Qin Tang was smoking a cigarette and looking out the window in a daze.

The alcohol content was not high, and although Gu Shi'an was dizzy after drinking it, he was still sober.It was already late when Qin Tang sent her back. She drank wine, afraid that Chen Xiao would ask her, she had already thought of an excuse, but when she got home, she found that Chen Xiao hadn't come back.

She stood against the wall for a while before walking in.Sitting blankly in the living room for a while, she didn't call Chen Xiao, and after washing carelessly, she collapsed on the bed and fell asleep in a daze.

Probably because of the low alcohol content of the wine, she didn't feel bad when she got up the next morning except for a bit of a headache.

Chen Xiao didn't return all night, so she washed her face with cold water to clear her mind, and then called Mrs. Gu, telling her that she had something to do at work and might not be able to pass today.

She was more or less guilty, but Mrs. Gu didn't think too much about it, and let her go back to her own affairs when she had time.

Gu Shi'an was more or less guilty, and told the old lady to wait until the time was over.

The old lady complied and told her to pay attention to her body.

Gu Shi'an hung up the phone, was slightly startled for a while, and then sent a text message to Chen Xiao, telling him that he was working overtime today and that he would not be going to the old house of the Gu family for the time being.

After doing all this, she went out.I bought a cup of steaming soy milk and two pancakes at the breakfast stall on the roadside, and continued to squat in the neighborhood where Shu Min lived.

If she didn't come back last night and has to go to work on Monday, she should come back in these two days.If she came back last night, she always had something to do.

Gu Shi'an didn't call her again, so he found an inconspicuous place to stay.

The fact that Shu Min avoided seeing her like that just showed that she knew what Luo Yun was doing.If she wasn't guilty, how could she avoid seeing him?
I don't know whether Shu Min came back or not, Gu Shi'an waited at the gate of the community for a whole day but didn't see her coming in or out.

But Chen Xiao called in the afternoon and asked where she was.She said that she worked overtime at the company and went back very late at night.

Gu Shi'an waited until after ten o'clock at night, and then hurriedly walked over from another street with Shu Min twisted up.It was cold at night, even though Gu Shian had put on extra clothes when he went out in the morning, his body was still a little stiff after waiting for such a day.

She stood up, waited for Shu Min to approach, and then called out: "Shu Min."

Seeing her panicked for a moment, Shu Min forced a smile and asked, "Sister Gu, why are you here?"

Her eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to look at Gu Shi'an.

Gu Shi'an smiled faintly, and did not go around in circles with her, and said, "I came here specially to find you. You should also know why I came to you."

The smile on Shu Min's face was even more forced, and she said, "Sister Gu, I don't understand what you are talking about."

Gu Shi'an's heart sank, she had thought about Shu Min's reaction a long time ago.She was silent for a moment, looked straight at her, and said, "You should know that the blueprint was leaked from Xiao Wang's hands. Don't you think about her?"

She usually has a good relationship with Xiao Wang, and many unsolvable things are handled by Xiao Wang for her.

Shu Min lowered her head and did not speak, nor could she see the expression on her face.

The atmosphere became so silent.

Gu Shi settled down, and then said: "Besides, you know Luo Yun's character. She is so unscrupulous, if there is a first time, there must be a second time. Are you not afraid of being a scapegoat in the future? I know you There must be difficulties, if you say it, I will do my best to help you."

Shu Min lowered her head and still didn't speak. After a minute or two, she said, "I don't know what you're talking about, Miss Gu. I'll go up first."

She didn't look at Gu Shi'an after she finished speaking, and hurried upstairs.

This was her answer, and Gu Shi'an did not chase after her.If she didn't plan to say it, even chasing after her and pestering her would be pointless.

Gu Shi'an didn't move for a while, and smiled at himself.Fortunately, she didn't talk about conscience or anything like that, otherwise she would just be slapping herself in the face.

When she came, she was more or less hopeful. At this moment, it would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed.But also acceptable.She has no hard evidence, and it is completely normal for her not to admit it.

Gu Shi'an stayed here for a day, but she didn't feel it at the time, but when she walked back, she realized that her body was severely frozen.

She gasped and moved her hands and feet before continuing to move forward.

When she arrived at the station, she took out her mobile phone to check the time. Mr. Qu gave them three days to find evidence to prove their innocence.It's been a day now, and she hasn't gained anything at all.

The current situation is not good for her.Gu Shian took a deep breath.She hadn't eaten all day, there was a food stall on the side of the road, and the smell of food could be heard from a distance, but she didn't feel hungry at all.

As soon as she got in the car, her mobile phone rang. She took out her mobile phone to check that the call was from Chen Xiao.She looked at it for a while, then picked it up, and gave a feed.

"Daughter-in-law, are you done overtime? Do you want me to pick you up?" Chen Xiao asked on the phone.

"No, I'm already back." Gu Shi'an replied.

Chen Xiao groaned on the phone, telling her to be careful on the road.Gu Shi'an said yes, but he couldn't find anything to talk about, so he said he would be there in a while, so he hung up first.

After hanging up the phone, she rested her head on the car, closed her eyes and fell asleep.The public says that the public is right, and the mother-in-law says that the mother-in-law is right.What she could think of, Luo Yun could also think of.She couldn't figure out how to prove that Luo Yun was plagiarizing.Besides, Luo Yun's drawing was sent to the client first.

She was so tired, she got out of the car and was about to walk to the community, when she looked up, she saw Chen Xiao standing beside the bus station smoking a cigarette.

Gu Shi'an froze for a moment, and asked, "Why are you here?"

Chen Xiao brushed off the cigarette ash in his hand, twitched the corners of his lips, and said, "Waiting for you, my wife, the streetlight in front is broken."

He is a lazy look.

Gu Shian just said thank you.

Chen Xiao hooked his lips again, and said, "Daughter-in-law, you don't have to be polite to me."

Gu Shi'an is tired, and now he has nothing to say.Chen Xiao didn't speak, and the two of them just walked into the community.

It's still so far away from the community, and there is a section of the road where the street lights are broken.It was pitch black, and a car came out of the community, piercing people's eyes.

Gu Shi'an was about to close his eyes reflexively, at this moment, Chen Xiao's hand reached out to her eyes, blocking the glare of the light for her.

There was a faint smell of cigarettes on his fingers, Gu Shi'an was slightly startled.The car passed by quickly, Chen Xiao withdrew his hand, held her hand directly, and said, "Daughter-in-law, be careful."

The corners of his lips tickled in the darkness, and there was a faint smile in his voice.

Gu Shi'an said in a low voice that it's okay, but when he tried to free his hand, Chen Xiao really held it tightly.

After holding Chen Xiao, he didn't let go. When he reached the elevator, he held Gu Shi'an's hand in front of his eyes, smiled lowly, and said, "Daughter-in-law, your hands are really small."

Under the light, the fingers in his hand were slender and white as jade.She has a good habit of cutting her nails short.

Gu Shi'an felt a little uncomfortable and wanted to withdraw his hand.

Chen Xiao stared at her with burning eyes, chuckled lightly, and said, "Daughter-in-law, are you shy?"

"You're overthinking." Gu Shi'an felt somewhat uncomfortable, instead of looking at him, he just stared at the numbers on the elevator.

Chen Xiao nodded thoughtfully, and said, "Indeed." After a slight pause, he whispered into Gu Shi'an's ear, and said with a light smile, "Indeed... there's nothing to be shy about, after all, there's nothing more shy than this We've all done it, haven't we?"

There was such a bit of evil in the corner of his mouth, he should have something to say.At this time, the elevator arrived and someone came in, so he didn't say anything more.

After getting out of the elevator, Chen Xiao let go of Gu Shi'an's hand.Then take out the key to open the door.After entering the room, he handed the slippers to Gu Shi'an and said, "Go and change."

He said without waiting for Gu Shi'an, and went straight in.

Gu Shi'an was very tired, so he ignored him and went to the bedroom to change.

When he came out, Chen Xiao was already at the dining table.Seeing her come out, he said, "Daughter-in-law, come and eat."

The food on the table was steaming hot, and suddenly, the deserted room felt like home.

Gu Shi'an was slightly absent-minded and didn't move for a while.

Chen Xiao gave a low laugh and said, "Staying still? Are you still hungry?"

No idea how he knew she wasn't eating.

Gu Shi'an walked over, the dishes on the table were not exquisite, there were two stir-fried dishes, one meat and one vegetarian, and stewed chicken soup.Gu Shi'an didn't go to see Chen Xiao, but asked, "You did this?"

Auntie's dishes are much more delicate than this, and it's not like takeaway.

Chen Xiao was a little smug, and said, "Have you never eaten pork or seen a pig running? How about a taste?"

He has always prided himself on being clever.

Gu Shi'an took a look at his hanging hand and asked, "How did you do it?"

Chen Xiao snorted twice and said, "As long as you use your brain, there is nothing you can't do."

He is very arrogant.Gu Shi'an was silent now, Chen Xiao filled her chicken soup with one hand, pushed it in front of her, raised his chin, and said, "Try."

Gu Shi'an held it in front of him, took a spoon and took a sip.The chicken soup is quite fresh, but it looks good.

Seeing that she didn't frown, Chen Xiao's face was even more proud.He motioned her to try other dishes.

Other dishes are much inferior to chicken soup, and the vegetable salt is a bit salty.The meat was fried a bit old.

But this is undoubtedly an acceptable result, so Gu Shian nodded and said, "It's okay."

Chen Xiao also filled half a bowl of soup for himself, and the corners of his lips curled up, saying, "That's right, I don't want to see who made it."

The meal was very harmonious, and Gu Shi'an saved face.After eating two bowls of rice, she was supposed to clean up the dishes after the meal, but Chen Xiao refused.Said that the water was ready and asked her to take a bath.

Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, but went anyway.When she came out, Chen Xiao had already packed up all the dishes. She went to the kitchen to have a look, and the kitchen was also tidy up like that.

Gu Shi'an's footsteps paused at the kitchen door for a while, and then he returned to the bedroom.Chen Xiao went to take a shower, Gu Shi'an was tired, she thought she would not be able to fall asleep, but who knew that she fell asleep in a daze before long.

Gu Shi'an had a long dream, as if he had returned to the old house of the Gu family that day, Li Ran snuggled into Chen Xiao's arms, smiling sweetly.

Luo Yun came out from nowhere, held a sharp knife in her hand, stabbed her directly, and said with a vicious smile, "Gu Shi'an, you should have died a long time ago."

Gu Shi'an suddenly woke up from the dream.Her breathing was heavy, and it took her a long time to calm down the nerves that were tense in the dream before she relaxed.

The room was empty, and when she turned her head to the bed on the other side with the help of the weak light, she realized that Chen Xiao was not there.

She was slightly startled, and reached out to touch the phone by the bedside to check the time.It was past one o'clock in the morning.She got out of bed and walked outside.

The light in the living room was off, and there were fireworks flickering on and off at the sofa.

Gu Shi'an reached out and turned on the light.Chen Xiao on the sofa narrowed his eyes slightly, and Gu Shi'an asked, "Are you still asleep?"

Chen Xiao snuffed out the cigarette butt in his hand, and said, "Immediately. I just finished dealing with some work matters."

As he spoke, he walked towards Gu Shi'an, raised his eyebrows, smiled lowly, and asked, "Daughter-in-law, can't you sleep without me? Well, it's my fault."

He was so lazy, he walked to Gu Shi'an's side, but suddenly reached out and hooked her waist, pushed her against the door frame, leaned forward and bit her lip.

In the middle of the night, Chen Xiao's energy was very good, and he was released after tossing for a long time before Gu Shi'an fell asleep.

In any case, it is impossible to sit still.Shu Min's side didn't work, so Gu Shi'an went to the company early the next day.

But the company's office area was not monitored, so she couldn't find it even if she wanted to.Gu Shi'an sat in the office for a long time, closed the office door and was about to leave when the sound of high heels rang out in the corridor.

She raised her head and looked at Luo Yun who was twisting the bag.

Luo Yun looked surprised when she saw her, with a bright smile on her face, and asked knowingly, "Does Senior Sister Gu also work overtime on weekends?"

Gu Shi'an was too lazy to argue with her, so he smiled lightly and said, "Aren't you the clearest what I'm here for?"

Luo Yun clicked her tongue and said, "Senior Sister Gu, you are wrong. I am not a roundworm in your stomach. How could I know what you are doing here? Don't you think so?"

Gu Shi'an gave her a sideways glance, "Do you think it's interesting to pretend to be confused like this?"

Luo Yun shrugged and said, "I don't know what you are talking about, Senior Sister Gu." After a slight pause, she pretended to be innocent, and then said, "Senior Sister Gu, everything must be prioritized. You also have to pay attention to the evidence, you are an old man in the company, you can't give me such a big hat just because of your seniority, I can't afford it."

After saying such words, she didn't change her face.

Gu Shi'an smiled lightly, and said: "Whether it's buckled or not, you know best, don't you?" After a slight pause, she continued: "Man is doing it, but the sky is watching."

Luo Yun laughed now, and said, "Is Senior Sister Gu still superstitious? But Mr. Qu is watching this matter, not Senior Sister Gu, you can count on empty words without proof."

She lifted Mr. Qu out, her chin raised high.There was a bit of disdain in his eyes, obviously he didn't take Gu Shi'an seriously.

After finishing speaking, he didn't look at Gu Shi'an any more, and walked to the office on high heels.

Gu Shian's fingers clenched and then loosened.out of the company.

Returning in vain, she had nowhere to go for a while, reached out and rubbed the swollen eyebrows, and was about to go home when the phone rang.

The call was from Xiao Wang, and as soon as she picked it up, Xiao Wang's voice that sounded like she was about to cry came from the other end of the phone: "Sister Gu, I found Shu Min today, but she didn't admit anything, why? manage?"

After leaving that night, Gu Shi'an told her that she would take care of this matter.Unexpectedly, she went to find Shu Min again.

Shu Min didn't admit it last night, and it's even more impossible to admit it today.Gu Shi'an immediately said, "I already looked for her last night."

Xiao Wang didn't expect that she had already approached Shu Min, so he gritted his teeth and said bitterly: "Poor people must have something to hate. This sentence is indeed true. I helped her out of kindness, but she bit us heartily. Bah, I still feel pitiful for her, but she's just like a bird of a feather!"

Things have happened, and it is useless to hate now.Xiao Wang was anxious and asked, "Sister Gu, what should we do now?"

"Isn't there still tomorrow? Don't be angry, go back and have a good rest, and we'll talk about it tomorrow." Her head swelled badly, and she comforted Xiao Wang. Seeing that Xiao Wang was still about to cry, she could only pretend to be relaxed. He said, "Okay, don't think too much. It's a big deal that we'll get out together and stop working in this line of work. We're just small shrimps, and we can make a living in another line of work."

Her tone was relaxed, and Xiao Wang laughed through his tears, and hung up the phone with the idea of ​​quitting.

There was a busy beeping sound from the phone, Gu Shi'an didn't know what he thought of, and stood still.After a while, she let out a soft breath.

Originally, he planned to go home, but suddenly remembered that he had agreed to see Xiao Huzi.She didn't go back now, she went to the supermarket to buy something, and then called Chang Yu.

When Gu Shi'an arrived at the company the next day, he was still as usual, and Xiao Wang had already arrived.She was anxious, and when she saw Gu Shian, she went up to meet him, "Sister Gu, Mr. Qu has already arrived. The one over there has also arrived."

Luo Yun smiled when she saw her, but she didn't know what her plan was.

Gu Shi'an just smiled and said, "When we arrive, we will arrive. Didn't we already agree yesterday? At worst, let's not do it."

Xiao Wang nodded accordingly, made a look of death, and said, "Sister Gu, I will go wherever you go."

The two entered the office while they were talking. Luo Yun was obviously impatient. Within 5 minutes of Gu Shi'an's arrival, someone came over and said that Mr. Qu asked her to go to the office.

Mostly because he felt that he had a chance of winning, and this matter was well known in the company.Seeing Gu Shi'an going to Mr. Qu's office, a group of colleagues were discussing in whispers.

Just like last time, Luo Yun was already there when Gu Shian passed by.

When Mr. Qu saw Gu Shian, he asked her to sit down.

Gu Shi'an didn't do it, so he smiled lightly and said, "Mr. Qu, I can't find any direct evidence to prove my innocence. But Mr. Qu is also a designer, so I will tell Mr. Qu that I was drawing blueprints at that time. original intention."

She paused slightly as she spoke, looked at Luo Yun, and continued: "To show fairness, not relying on my own seniority, Luo... Yun can also speak first. The drawings can be designed exactly the same, but the idea is always the same. It can't be exactly the same. You can invite colleagues from outside to come in..."

When she got to this point, she was interrupted by Mr. Qu, who pushed the glasses on the bridge of his nose and said, "You don't need to invite other colleagues in. It's not a monkey show. You two can discuss who will speak first."

When he said this, he glanced at Luo Yun.

Luo Yun held a document bag in her hand, and what was inside was probably something she had fully prepared to prove that the drawings were drawn by her.

She probably didn't expect Gu Shi'an to say that, so she tightened her hand holding the document, forced a smile, and said, "Senior Sister Gu, you have old qualifications, so you should talk first, Senior Sister Gu."

Gu Shi'an smiled faintly, and said, "Then I'd rather be obedient than respectful." As she spoke, she took out the blueprint and started talking about it one by one.

The more she talked later, the more unbearable the smile on Luo Yun's face.

Gu Shi'an didn't look at her. At the end, he closed the drawings, smiled, and said, "Mr. Qu, I'm done."

Mr. Qu coughed twice, looked at Luo Yun, and said, "Xiao Luo, it's your turn now."

Luo Yun bit her lips tightly, and also stammered.

Gu Shi'an didn't look at her either, the corners of his mouth curled up with a bit of sarcasm, and he just sat there.

Many of what she said were repeated with Gu Shi'an, and she was not fluent.Halfway through the conversation, Mr. Qu's cell phone rang.

He signaled Luo Yun not to talk, looked at the incoming call on the phone, and said haha: "I have something to do now, you two go back first, we will talk about it later."

Gu Shi'an nodded and said yes, and left the office.

The door closed behind her, but Luo Yun did not come out.Gu Shi'an ignored it and went back to the office.

Xiao Wang waited anxiously, and when he saw Gu Shian came back, he asked, "Sister Gu, how are you? What did Mr. Qu say? Mr. Qu is always wise, so he must have seen through that vixen, right?"

What she said was really somewhat correct.

Gu Shi'an didn't say much, and didn't tease her, he said: "Mr. Qu has something to do, let's talk about it later."

Xiao Wang was a little disappointed, and said, "Then what did you say when you went in?"

Gu Shi'an just perfunctory with a few sentences, and let her go about her business.

After Xiao Wang left, she sat down.In fact, she should have guessed the relationship between Luo Yun and President Qu.If such a thing happened in the company, it should be investigated anyway. How could it be possible for each of them to prove their innocence?
