Dating!
The couple immediately exchanged glances.
Bai Yue didn’t seem to expect to get this kind of answer, the smile on his face froze for a long time before he could sustain it:
“A date… Xiao Ruan didn’t tell me just now, if I knew it, I wouldn’t bother you.”
“Don’t bother”
Gu Xiuyi smiled: “What are you talking about so lively, let me hear it?”
Bai Yue took a deep breath: “I didn’t say anything, isn’t it grandpa’s birthday next week? It’s just a few words.”
The old man Gao’s brain was spinning rapidly, judging the current situation and making a quick decision, he flattered and laughed, and said very deliberately: “Yes! We are all envious, who doesn’t want to see and see the Gu family’s banquet, but only the Bai family can follow You can only go if you are very close, we little people, we can only read it on the news hahahaha.”
Bai Yue was stunned, he didn’t expect this person surnamed Gao to say that.
On the surface, it sounded flattering to both of them, but it was actually alluding to Bai Yue’s disorderly relationship.
Bai Yue’s breath trembled.
Gu Xiuyi turned his gaze to Lao Gao: “you are..?”
After seeing that he had finally hit on the conversation, Lao Gao bowed down again and again: “Hi, Mr. Gu, I’m Gao Dahai, we were in the same class in the third year of high school!”
He Patting his chest wildly: “Me! Gao Dahai!”
Gu Xiuyi frowned, as if searching his memory to no avail.
Lao Gao was not embarrassed, he smiled and said, “Hey, I don’t think you will recognize me. I lost weight at the time. After two years of business, my beer belly has come out. My appearance has changed completely. If you come on the class reunion day , Make sure to laugh at me with everyone hahahaha.”
Gu Xiuyi then nodded knowingly: “So it’s an old classmate. It’s rare for me to rest on the day of the class reunion, so I stayed at home with Ji Ruan. It’s really rude.”
Ji Ruan Unable to hold back a smile, he lowered his head and ate ice cream while listening to the play.
Lao Gao cursed Bai Yue even more in his heart. Didn’t he talk about a meeting just now, but ended up staying at home with his wife!
Luckily, he insisted on inviting Bai Yue to dinner, and wanted him to introduce him to the classmate reunion, but Gu Xiuyi didn’t want to show face at all!
Old Gao smiled but did not smile, and kept his expression flattering: “Look at what you said, you are a person who does great things, of course you have to stay at home with your wife when you have time, unlike our small business, which is a life of running around, and The third phase of Lingzhou that you recently launched is simply incomparable, a little scum from such a big project is enough for us to eat for a lifetime, hahahaha.”
Gu Xiuyi heard the meaning of his words, smiled and didn’t answer, and turned to look at Xiang Baiyue: “In the early years when grandpa was still in charge, our two families did have some contacts.”
He laughed inexplicably: “But I remember that the Gu family and the Bai family have not cooperated for a long time, right?”
Bai Yue lowered his brows and eyes, and seemed to swallow his anger: “Yes, our family’s business has not been very good in the past two years.”
He turned his eyes around Ji Ruan’s face, then turned back to Xiu Yi, and bit his lips: “You Are you unhappy?…Is it because others speculated about our relationship, so you unhappy?”
He looked at Gu Xiuyi with a little anxiety.
Gu Xiuyi’s expression was indifferent, and he couldn’t see any emotion.
But the more this is the case, the more people feel uncertain and thus give rise to strong anxiety.
Bai Yue clenched his fists hard, and tentatively said, “You may have misunderstood, and I am also very distressed. I have always told others not to speculate about our relationship. We were just friends.” He lowered his head as he said
His expression was a little gloomy: “Besides… you’re already married.”
Ji Ruan was amazed by this look of hesitating to speak, isn’t this acting more layered than the 8 o’clock dog-blood drama?
It’s a pity that Aunt Zhao is not at the scene, she must love to watch it.
Gu Xiuyi hugged Ji Ruan, and said casually: “Don’t, just be an ordinary classmate, I can’t stand friends.”
The couple watching the play stared at each other in shock.
Bai Yue never expected that Gu Xiuyi would say such nasty words to him in front of others, as if he had been showered with cold water: “…Xiuyi? You, you don’t even want to be friends with me now?”
He His face turned pale little by little, and I looked pitiful.
However, Gu Xiuyi turned a blind eye and sighed: “If I remember correctly, you are Gu Chuli’s friend. You come to my house as a guest, but to me, you are just a guest.” Lao Gao and Gao’s eyes were fixed on Bai Yue, and they were so straightforward
Almost naked.
Bai Yue gritted his teeth. He wanted to stop him again, betting that Gu Xiuyi wouldn’t let him lose face in public:
“I see, there are some rumors that made Ji Ruan unhappy, right? But I’ve been clarifying Ah, I kept telling them not to think too much, but I can’t do anything if my mouth grows on others, if Ji Ruan is still unhappy, then I apologize to him-”
“Mr. Bai!”
Gu Xiuyi interrupted sharply.
When mentioning Ji Ruan, he suddenly became more serious: “Ji Ruan doesn’t need you to apologize, but please respect yourself.”
“Respect?” Bai Yue shook, “We have known each other for twenty years, and I have always regarded you as the best. Friend, do you want me to respect myself now?”
Gu Xiuyi’s eyes were cold, and in such a bustling shopping mall, the air around him was almost freezing, and his eyes gradually turned from perfunctory to bored:
“If you insist on saying that, then I will Let me tell you–“
“Friends will not touch my lover without permission; friends will not use false rumors to stimulate him when they know that my lover is in poor health; friends will not lure outsiders with words, It’s okay to say that it doesn’t matter, but he made even more misleading actions.”
He looked deeply at Bai Yue: “If you think this is a friend, it’s a pity, I have a completely different view of friendship with you. –do you still need me to continue?”
How did he spread rumors to win people’s hearts by relying on the little friendship he had when he was young?
The Bai family’s business has been on the decline for so many years but it has never really collapsed. It is more or less because some people believed those rumors and secretly gave them some face.
Following Gu Xiuyi’s calm but sharp words, Bai Yue’s face turned pale inch by inch.
It was as if those sharp knives were constantly cutting his skin, blood flowed out, and his face could not change any other color except pale.
Ji Ruan was also a little stunned.
Really, the current atmosphere is too embarrassing.
After Gu Xiuyi’s words, no one spoke again. In the bustling shopping mall, the five of them stood next to a claw machine. The atmosphere was eerily quiet, and many passers-by looked at them.
Lao Gao and his wife even took two steps back with their arms, and took out a tissue to wipe off the sweat. Gu Xiuyi’s aura was so strong that even if he dressed like a college student to match his wife, his scalp would feel numb.
Bai Yue obviously had no face to speak, and stood stiffly in place, probably because of his self-esteem.
In order to do some business, Lao Gao went all out, gritted his teeth and jumped out to act as a breakthrough for the atmosphere to condense to the extreme.
smiling sheepishly while wiping his sweat with a piece of paper:
“Yes! I’m also most annoyed by those people who try to get along with each other indiscriminately. Such people can’t make friends! But Mr. Gu’s straightforward I appreciate temperament the most, if you have anything to say, let’s not engage in those vain things!”
The girl also quickly echoed: “Yes, yes, and your wife is young and good-looking, Mr. Gu, and an artist, who would be envious of that? Right? Hahahaha…”
“That’s right. When I saw Mr. Ji today, I thought you two are a perfect match. An artist and a big businessman are like a storybook in the Republic of China. A match made in heaven! It’s really rare to be with Mr. Ji on weekends! “
The couple talked to each other like a double reed, and finally reversed the embarrassing atmosphere that was about to tear apart.
Tear-
as if you can hear the ice cubes in the air melting quietly.
Gu Xiuyi calmed down, looked at Lao Gao with a slight smile, and sighed:
“Sure enough, people with families can understand each other.”
Lao Gao was keenly aware of Gu Xiuyi’s emotional change, and said with a slap in the face: “That’s not true! Like this, tonight I’m the host, let’s have a good chat, this person who has never been married, he doesn’t understand!”
“The meal is free,” Gu Xiuyi politely refused: “Ji Ruan’s stomach is not very good, I will take him home to eat.”
Lao Gao didn’t have any hope at first, so he nodded immediately: “It’s okay, the body is the most important thing, our old classmates can get together anytime!”
Gu Xiuyi didn’t talk nonsense: “For the bidding, you can ask the person in charge, Xiao Huang, according to the regulations.”
Lao Gao was stunned for a moment, then overjoyed: “Hey! Good! Thank you, Mr. Gu! Thank you!!”
Lao Gao never dreamed that there would be such a turning point.
These days, he ran up and down to curry favor with Bai Yue, just for Gu Xiuyi’s words.
For a small start-up company like theirs, it is impossible to cooperate with Gu’s, and they can’t even hand in the bidding documents.
But with Gu Xiuyi’s words, at least you can go in and see the world, even if you run with him in the end, it doesn’t matter, if you get to know the person in charge surnamed Huang through Gu Xiuyi’s words, at least you can eat some food scraps, if Gu Xiuyi doesn’t like it, for his family Said it was no small business!
“Ji Ruan!” A low shout startled Lao Gao, and when he turned his head, he saw Mr. Gu holding Ji Ruan’s hand with an anxious expression on his face.
“Didn’t I say you can only eat two bites?”
Gu Xiuyi was helpless, the box of ice cream had already bottomed out, and he let Ji Ruan sneakily eat most of it.
Ji Ruan was also a little shocked. He was too engrossed in watching the play just now, and this box of ice cream was originally small, so he almost ate it up in two bites.
He slowly grinned and laughed dryly: “I’m sorry, I didn’t pay attention…”
“…”
After eating everything, what else can Gu Xiuyi do?
He could only take away the last point, say “excuse me”, and leave with Ji Ruan in his arms.
“Hey, Mr. Gu, please leave!” Lao Gao waved his hands enthusiastically.
After watching the two figures walk away, he was completely relieved.
He turned around and looked at Bai Yue, his face-to-face smiling expression disappeared, and he flicked his sleeves: “Okay, Xiaobai, we’re going back first, the company still has something to do, you can do it yourself.
” From Mr. Bai to Xiaobai?
Bai Yue suffered a blow from Gu Xiuyi and lost all face. How could he bear Gao Dahai’s face to him, and immediately pointed to his nose: “Gao Dahai, this is your attitude when talking to me? You forgot how you flattered me back then. Got it?!”
“What kind of attitude do you want?” Gao Dahai directly snapped back! “I didn’t ask you for the meal money back, but I gave you face!”
He turned around, followed Gu Xiuyi’s appearance and walked out with his wife in his arms, and spat:
“It’s so fucking unlucky, I’ve eaten two meals for me, and it’s 10,000 yuan less , the result is a fucking swollen face to pretend to be a fat man, the shit can’t be done, and I can’t be my father who praised the child named Ji for being effective.”
The girl chuckled lightly: “Why should I tell you, that person is talking nonsense. It’s different for those who have proved it. The Bai family’s business couldn’t continue several years ago. If he really has anything to do with Gu Xiuyi, can Gu Xiuyi help? You’re just stupid, you believe everything he says.”
Gao Dahai smirked : “Of course, my daughter-in-law has the foresight.”
“You spread today’s matter to the alumni group and the city group. It’s not a day or two for me to look at the surnamed Gu and the surnamed Bai. If you let him I’m happy, our business is easy to do.”
“Hey, okay, I’ll listen to you for everything.”
Bai Yue had never received so much anger on the same day, his whole body was so tense that he couldn’t help shaking, his mind was full of Gao Dahai’s insult to him, and the expression when he left with Gu Xiuyi.
He cared so much, he still pinched the face of the hairless child, and spoke in a low voice, not daring to speak too loudly if he wanted to teach him a lesson.
He had never seen Gu Xiuyi like this.
Going home at night, Ji Ruan failed to eat the veal steak as expected.
Under the double effects of popcorn and ice cream, his fragile stomach rebelled a bit, he barely swallowed a few mouthfuls of porridge, and after being fed medicine by Gu Xiuyi, he could only lie on the bed with a pale face.
After taking a shower, Gu Xiuyi gently squeezed into Ji Ruan’s bed, rubbed his warm palms into his pajamas to cover his stomach, his waist and abdomen were thin and thin, and he didn’t grow any meat after raising them for so long, and now his belly is still chilly , Feeling strange and pitiful.
Gu Xiuyi felt a little distressed: “It’s still uncomfortable, baby?”
Ji Ruan turned over and buried him in his arms, her cheeks and lips were white, Gu Xiuyi felt distressed and angry at the sight: “I told you to eat less ice cream, but you don’t believe me, You are not the one who feels uncomfortable.”
Ji Ruan was also a little angry: “I also said that I didn’t do it on purpose, Bai Yue’s expression at that time was really exciting.”
Speaking of this, Gu Xiuyi wanted to laugh, and he was very fond of Ji Ruan. have no choice.
This child has no heart and no lungs, and everything can be seen as a play. Even when he was telling Aunt Zhao vividly about today’s wonderful events, he suddenly started to have a stomachache.
The pain was so unexpected that he bent down and turned pale.
It also gave Gu Xiuyi a big jump.
Gu Xiuyi rubbed Ji Ruan’s belly with lingering fear: “Okay, okay, it’s not your fault, it’s my fault for not taking good care of you.”
Ji Ruan rubbed Gu Xiuyi’s shoulder angrily, and the matter was over.
After a while, he suddenly looked up at Gu Xiuyi: “Then you won’t really let that old Gao do the business, will you?”
Gu Xiuyi looked at Shang Jiruan’s slightly worried eyes, and smiled: “Of course not, some projects are carried out in accordance with the rules and procedures, and there is a strict review system, so I won’t talk about it.” Only then did Ji Ruan feel relieved: “That’s good .”
Gu Xiuyi squeezed his chin: “Why, are you afraid that I will be fooled by my lust and you will hand over the business with just one compliment?”
Ji Ruan’s cheeks were a little red, embarrassed: “…No, I’m just worried. “
“Don’t worry,” Gu Xiuyi hugged him into his arms and patted his back lightly: “I will work hard and earn a lot of money. After all, there is a gold lump in my family who can’t live without gold and silver. right?”
Ji Ruan smiled and touched his chest: “How can I be so difficult to support?”
“Yes, yes, yes,” Gu Xiuyi hurriedly begged for mercy: “I was wrong, my baby is not difficult to raise, I am afraid. “
“What are you afraid of?”
Ji Ruan’s eyes were bright, and when he was smiling, the waves of light flowed, as if there was a stream hidden in his eyes.
Gu Xiuyi looked at him quietly, leaned over and kissed his eyes.
“I’m afraid you’ll get sick, I’m afraid I won’t be able to take care of you, I’m afraid I won’t be able to support you.”
When Gu Xiuyi mentioned his body, he would unconsciously take it seriously, and sometimes he would look a little sad.
Ji Ruan shrank into his arms, hugged his waist in a comforting posture, and said softly: “I won’t.”
Gu Xiuyi gently followed Ji Ruan’s back: “Well, I won’t.”
Like While comforting Ji Ruan, it also seems to be comforting herself.
He touched Ji Ruan’s chest and abdomen: “Does the stomach still hurt?”
“It doesn’t hurt anymore,” Ji Ruan poked her head out of his arms, smiling at him with messy hair, “but rub it for me again.”
Gu Xiuyi would never be able to resist this kind of acting like a baby.
“Okay.” He said with a smile.
In the end, they came up to kiss each other.
“Ugh… ah, what are you doing!” Ji Ruan pushed him away with some strength, panting unhappily: “I asked you to rub my stomach, not to kiss me.” Gu Xiuyi put his palm on
Ji Ruan’s stomach and lightly Rubbing lightly, still leaning over to kiss him non-stop, said vaguely:
“baby in business, you need to pay for hiring labor.”
Ji Ruan paused, holding back a smile and turning his head:
“Crazy.”
