Reborn since 2005

Chapter 385
Gu Ru returned to Yangcheng in the morning, and not long after waiting at the restaurant that Yan Xin had booked, Ai Lili brought a few executives from the company over.

This is to eat and drink with the company's money, but it's really not suitable for a few friends, as if they are using public funds for private use, so I called those executives over, and everyone has a good meal together. Let's have fun, and also express our respect for Gu Ru, a cash cow and shareholder.

After those senior executives came over, Gu Ru also put away her carefree style before, and became intellectual and gentle again.

Ai Lili was very happy to see Gu Ru.

She doesn't have many friends, and Gu Ru is one of them.

She cherishes every friend.

Of course, Gu Ru has some special hobbies, which still makes her a little unacceptable.

Other than that, everything else is fine.

When eating, she sat next to Gu Ru, but she didn't get too close.

Gu Ru also praised her: "Lily, you have grown up very fast during this time. When you first came to the company, you were as careful as a little chicken, and now you have the demeanor of a strong woman."

This made Ai Lili very happy: "Is there? Is there really?"

Gu Ru said with certainty: "Really, you already have the majesty of a superior, and I can see a strong sense of self-confidence from your face."

Ai Lili has never been so confident, because her mother has always said that she is an incompetent person. She even found a job by relying on relationships. In the future, she can only be happy by marrying a man from a good family.

Under such influence, it is strange to be able to have self-confidence.

Even though she entered Starlight Entertainment Company and became the general manager, she still didn't have much confidence. She always felt that Yan Xin was the only one who got this job, and all her achievements were due to Yan Xin, and had nothing to do with her personal ability. .

She's always had a low self-esteem in that regard.

It is precisely because of her low self-esteem that she works very hard to manage the company. Many times Yan Xin asked her to rest but she refused.

She feels that she is not capable, so she can only put in more effort, which means that the stupid bird flies first.

But I still don't have much self-confidence, and I always feel that I am a person who can only rely on others to live.

Gu Ru affirmed her like this, which made her very happy.

She grew up so big, but few people recognized her ability.

——Yan Xin doesn't count, because Yan Xin is her man, and all the words that praise her are taken by her as words to make her happy.

None of the employees in the company said how capable she was—maybe they felt that saying such a thing was flattering.

In other words, the advertising partners will praise her ability.

But there are too many elements of politeness in it, maybe all of them are elements of politeness.

Gu Ru was not the first to praise her, but she was also one of the few.

The most important thing is, judging from Gu Ru's expression, she really thinks so.

This made Ellie even happier.

Ai Lili was the happiest person in this welcome banquet.

There was wine at the welcome banquet, and everyone drank it, but Yan Xin didn't drink it. His reason was that his liver was not good and he was allergic to alcohol, so no one persuaded him to drink.

There is another reason, he drives.

Driving without drinking, drinking without driving, this is something he has always followed.

He is the boss, no one can force him.

Gu Ru finally finished months of exhaustion, she felt very relaxed, drank a lot, and was a little drunk.

But her wine taste is very good, and she doesn't make trouble when she is drunk.

This is probably still practiced in this circle.

Drinking is unavoidable, if the wine is not good, you will not be able to mix in this circle long ago.

Xiaoyuan and Chen Li also drank some, and were a little drunk.

After the meal, everyone dispersed, and the company's executives all took taxis to go back to work.

Ai Lili also took a taxi back to the company to go to work.

It took a long time to eat this meal, and it was already past 01:30 when I finished eating, and it was meaningless to go home again. It was better to go to work directly to avoid running back and forth.

Yan Xin drove Gu Ru, Chen Li, and Xiao Yuan back to Baijingyuan in a car.

The main reason is that he can't have so many people in this car, otherwise he can take Ai Lili there too.

In the car, Gu Ru was still sitting in the co-pilot's seat, and kicked off the high heels she was wearing as soon as she got in the car, but this time she didn't put her feet on the driver's seat.

Maybe it was because Chen Li was by his side.

She didn't bother to fasten the seat belt, so Yan Xin helped her fasten it.

When leaning over to fasten her seat belt, Yan Xin still had such a thought in his mind: "Everyone says to lose weight first to reduce breasts, it seems true..."

Gu Ru didn't take his caution seriously: "On that little road, why do you need to wear a seat belt? Are you so unconfident in your driving skills?"

"I don't have confidence in other people's driving skills." Yan Xin said with a smile.

The car drove steadily until it reached the Baijingyuan community.

After entering the community, Gu Ru said to him: "Don't send me back to my house, it's so boring to live alone in such a big house."

"Then whose house are you going to?" Yan Xin asked.

"How about going to your house?" Gu Ru asked.

But after saying this, he glanced at him and shook his head again:
"No, you have a girlfriend. Now Lily is at work. I'm going to your house. I'll be with you alone in the afternoon. Lily may feel uncomfortable, so I'd better not go to your house."

After all, I still drank too much, otherwise I wouldn't say such words, and would just hide them in my heart.

Will do that, but won't say that.

Yan Xin originally wanted to explain that Ai Lili was not such a person, but when the words came to her lips, she still didn't say it.

It is indeed a bit ambiguous to let a drunk woman go to her home, and then spend the afternoon alone.

Maybe Ai Lili doesn't care about such things, but he wants to avoid suspicion.

There are many such things, and no matter how tolerant a woman is, she will become suspicious.

He has nothing to do with Gu Ru, but if the relationship between him and Feng Xi is suspected because of this, it will be over.

So it's better not to say.

At this time, both Chen Li and Xiaoyuan said in time: "Then come to my house."

Gu Ru turned her head and looked at them again, and finally made a decision: "Send me to Xiaoyuan's house."

No problem.

It's inconvenient to go to Yan Xin's house, and it's also inconvenient to go to Chen Li's house, so let's go to Xiao Yuan's house, it doesn't matter if they are all women.

In this way, after parking the car in the basement, Yan Xin sent Gu Ru to Xiaoyuan's house.

As for Chen Li, he drank a little wine and was not too drunk. He is a big man, so let him go home by himself.

After Gu Ru drank some wine, her mind was still relatively clear, but her body was a little out of control, and Xiao Yuan was too small to support her, so Yan Xin sent her all the way to Xiao Yuan's house.

After opening the door, Xiaoyuan saw that his clothes were all wet, so she invited him to sit for a while, drink a cold drink before leaving.

The weather in October is still a bit hot in Yangcheng.

Although they all live in the same community, Yan Xin has never been to Xiaoyuan's house.

Madoka doesn't know how to cook by herself, and the kitchen appliance is an induction cooker, which is sometimes used to cook noodles.

The house is not big, and there is nothing fun to come to her house, so I never came.

She spends more time at Yan Xin's house for dinner.

This little girl already has several properties under her name, including houses with three bedrooms and one living room, and houses with three bedrooms and two living rooms.

But the flat she lives in is only two rooms and one living room, and the area is not big.

All the big houses are rented out, and I live in a small house. I am a person who knows how to live.

It is more than enough to live with her alone.

Yan Xin entered the door for the first time, and went in to take a look. Although the room was not big, it was quite clean.

The decoration style is mainly pink, full of girlish style.

He smiled and said, "You're doing pretty well here. You live alone, and your life is fine."

Xiaoyuan pursed her lips and said with a smile: "The main reason is that the cleaning lady does cleaning twice a week. If I rely on me, I don't know what kind of chaos it will be."

She is also desperately earning money, and she is actually quite tired every day, so she can only rely on cleaning.

Even Yan Xin, who is such a idler, doesn't bother to do housework by himself, so he will let hourly workers do cleaning twice a week.

After sending Gu Ru to the bed in the bedroom, Yan Xin visited Xiaoyuan's room while drinking Coke.

Then I found out that there are only one bedroom in the two rooms here, and the other one was turned into a karaoke room by Xiao Yuan, with some musical instruments in it, but no bed.

There is only one bedroom and one bed in this house.

He tilted his head to look at Xiaoyuan: "You only have one bed at home, do you mean that Sister Ru just sleeps on the same bed with you?"

Xiaoyuan blushed, and said, "I can also sleep on the sofa."

It's not that she doesn't know what kind of woman Gu Ru is.

She felt that Yan Xin also knew.

So she felt that Yan Xin's words meant making fun of her.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Sister Ru, she is just taking a break with me now, and she can stay at your place at night. Sister Lili is not here in the afternoon, so she wants to avoid suspicion. In the evening, Sister Lili will come back, so there is no need to avoid suspicion. "

Yan Xin nodded: "You are right, she likes to be lively, and she will be happier if there are more people."

Xiaoyuan thought to herself: "Actually, I also like to be lively..."

I didn’t like to be so lively at first, but I left my hometown for such a long time, and every time I returned home after the performance, I was alone. I wanted to find someone to talk to, but I couldn’t find such a person.

The whole person seems to be swallowed by loneliness.

——In a foreign country, this feeling is particularly strong.

Gradually, I became more and more afraid of loneliness, and more and more like lively.

Every time Yan Xin asked her to come over for dinner, she agreed readily, not because she was short of a bite of food, but because she liked the feeling of eating together with several people.

Much better than eating alone.

When eating alone, no matter how good the food is, in her mouth it feels no different from eating instant noodles.

So when she is alone, she often cooks some instant noodles.

Gu Ru is older than her, has been working longer than her, and is also more lonely than her.

So she can understand Gu Ru's feelings. Even if she has a home, she doesn't want to go home, but lives with her friends to join in the fun.

It's just that Gu Ru has money and status, so she can directly make such a request.

But she didn't have the qualifications to make such a request to anyone, so she could only endure such loneliness.

After Gu Ru was helped to the bed, she fell asleep not long after.

Yan Xin didn't stay for long. After drinking a can of iced Coke and visiting Xiaoyuan's house, he left.

Before leaving, he also said that they should go to his house for dinner at night.

This is what he discussed with Ai Lili, and he will cook a delicious meal at his home in the evening and continue to welcome Gu Ru.

It was a company banquet at noon, expressing the importance to Gu Ru, a cash cow and shareholder.

In the evening, it is a private banquet, expressing the feelings between friends.

Back at his home, Yan Xin sent a message to Ai Lili, telling her that Gu Ru was afraid of being lonely and didn't want to go back to her house. He had placed Gu Ru in Xiaoyuan's house, and now he has gone home.

Ai Lili also complained to him, why didn't he take Gu Ru to live with them, Xiao Yuan would be busy performing at night, and Gu Ru would be alone again, and quite lonely.

What she said moved Yan Xin very much. He felt that this woman trusted him so much that she didn't even worry about what would happen if he was with Gu Ru alone.

This trust is simply more precious than gold.

How good would it be if this trust could always be there?

He told Ai Lili that he could invite Gu Ru to stay when they came over for dinner at night, and that the two singers might be able to communicate better if they were together during the day.

It means that Gu Ru can go to Xiaoyuan's place during the day, or Xiaoyuan can go to Gu Ru's place, and stay at their house at night.

In this way, there will be no suspicion that he and Gu Ru are alone in the same room.

This is still trying to avoid suspicion.

Ai Lili understood what he meant, and said to him directly: "You don't need to bother, just let Sister Ru live in our house, don't worry about my feelings, I absolutely trust you."

To this, Yan Xin can only say: "Okay."

Then he flattered her in time: "Finding a wife like you who trusts me unconditionally is the greatest blessing in my life."

Ai Lili: "The main reason is that I believe in Sister Ru, she doesn't like men."

Yan Xin: "..."

After five o'clock in the afternoon, before Ai Lili got off work, Gu Ru and Xiao Yuan came over together.

Before she came over, she called Chen Li and called him over.

Ai Lili didn't come back until 06:30. When she came back, she still had some ingredients in her hands. She took a taxi to the seafood market after get off work to buy them.

But there are some ingredients at home, before she came, Yan Xin and Xiaoyuan had already prepared them in the kitchen.

There is no fire, and the matter of cooking has to be done by Ai Lili, who is a superb cook.

However, with their early preparations, it can also save Ai Lili some time.

When Ai Lili came back, several people were in the kitchen, two were busy in the kitchen, and two were standing outside the kitchen, chatting about traveling in a few days.

After she came back, she threw the ingredients in her hands to Yan Xin, who already had a lot of kitchen experience, and started cooking by herself.

Also joined their chat.

Gu Ru's body is still a little tired now, her idea is to rest at home for a few days first, and then go out for a trip when her spirit is well nourished.

Traveling alone feels boring and not very safe, so she wants to take everyone to travel together.

Chen Li had no opinion.

He now has the book "Shading the Sky" in hand, and he updates three chapters a day, about ten thousand words.

But his hand speed is relatively fast. Xi Gang and Yan Xin have already figured it out, and the writing is very smooth. It only takes two or three hours a day to finish it.

Going to travel will not prevent him from updating.

You can also take advantage of these few days to save a little draft.

He enthusiastically agreed with Gu Ru's proposal, and after hearing it, he said that he would go.

But Madoka hesitated.

She wants to travel, and even more wants to travel with these friends.

But she wanted to stay here to perform and earn money.

She looks like a little rich woman now, with five houses under her name, and they are all in super first-tier cities.

However, she is still burdened with a large mortgage, and she has only rented out two houses. The rent cannot cover the mortgage, and she still has a certain amount of financial pressure at present.

The other two houses are being renovated and need money.

Although I still have some savings in hand, I can handle it, but if I want to travel, I will be a little embarrassed if I have less income and more expenses.

She is a child who lived below the poverty line and has a strong sense of financial insecurity.

The savings she has now is not enough to give her a strong sense of security.

She needs to make more money when she can.

Gu Ru enlightened her: "You are busy with performances every day, and you are as tired as a dog. You should take a rest and relax. Don't be tense all the time, or you will collapse. Combine work and rest, and relax properly. It’s the best choice. It’s not so difficult now, just go out with us and relax, young people should look like young people.”

"But... I'm afraid that I won't have enough money to pay the mortgage and decoration..." Xiaoyuan said in a difficult way.

Gu Ru patted her on the shoulder, and said proudly, "Don't worry, I'll take care of everything. If you don't have enough money, I'll help you out!"

"That's so embarrassing..." Xiaoyuan blushed.

"Our own sisters, why are you embarrassed?" Gu Ru gave her a white look.

Ai Lili also said next to her: "Xiaoyuan, you really should take a good rest. I think your current physical condition is not very good and you need to adjust. It is right to work hard, but there is no need to die. Give it a go."

Madoka asked: "Sister Lily, does my physical condition look bad?"

Ellie nodded.

Chen Li also added: "Your condition does not look good, you look malnourished."

Madoka thought for a while, and finally made a decision: "Alright then, I'll go out with you."

Gu Ru asked Ai Lili again: "You will go with us too?"

Ai Lili glanced at Yan Xin.

Yan Xin said: "Let's go together, more people will make it more lively, anyway, the company doesn't have much important things right now. If there is really something to do, the traffic is so developed now, it won't be too late to deal with it when the time comes."

Ai Lili nodded and said, "Okay, let's go out together."

When this was said, everyone laughed.

Ellie also had a smile on her face.

What she likes most is traveling with Yan Xin, where she can see beautiful scenery and enjoy sweet love.

However, traveling with these friends is also quite good.

Love is beautiful.

Friendship is also beautiful.

It is also a very happy thing to enjoy such beauty while young.
