Confess to you, do you want to listen?

Chapter 186 Is hypocrisy enough?

Gu Shi'an was taken aback.

Although she knew that Gu Lan would find out that she was working with Gu's sooner or later, but knowing later... is better than knowing sooner.She immediately came back to her senses, shrugged her shoulders, put on a relaxed look, and said, "It's a bit annoying to be in the same line for a long time, so I plan to change jobs again."

Gu Lan didn't doubt anything and nodded.

Gu Lan has been staying here for several days. Although Chang is away most of the time, she is still uncomfortable.After lunch at noon, I thanked Chang many times and went back to the old house with Gu Shi'an.

She didn't have any luggage, and she had very few things. Even the change of clothes was bought for her by her aunt after she came out.

A marriage, a husband and wife for so many years, unexpectedly came to such a fate.Gu Shi'an was sore in his heart, but he didn't show it at all on his face.Back home, he took Gu Lan to the mall under the pretext of buying some daily necessities.Get clothes for her.

Gu Lan didn't want it anyway, saying that from now on, she had to learn to be independent and support herself.Before she has the ability, she can no longer buy expensive clothes.

Besides, as long as the clothes are wearable.Don't be so particular.

She has no clothes, and she always needs some decent clothes when she goes out to find a job.She pulled Gu Shi'an out of the shopping mall and went to the wholesale market opposite.

In these aristocratic families, face has always been the most important.Whether she was in the down-and-out Gu's family or her in-law's family, she always wore big-name clothes.Mostly never worn clothes from the wholesale market.

Gu Shi'an couldn't hold back her, so he could only let her go.

Gu Lan could tell the difference quite clearly. Although she bought clothes, she remembered all the money, and said that she would return it to Gu Shi'an after she found a class and paid her salary.

She was very strong, Gu Shi'an agreed with a smile in order to make her feel at ease.And said that when she got paid, she would treat herself to a big meal.

Gu Lan responded with a smile.

The two bought clothes, and went to the supermarket to buy daily necessities, vegetables and food.

The dinner in the evening was steak fried by Gu Lan. Gu Shi'an took out the red wine that he didn't know when he put it away, and wished Gu Lan to find a job he wanted.

Gu Lan doesn't drink well, but after drinking three or four glasses of red wine, a blush appeared on her face.Gu Shi'an didn't know that her drinking capacity was so bad, so he didn't let her drink any more, and sent her back to the room after washing up.

Probably because of the alcohol, Gu Lan soon fell asleep.Gu Shi'an gently closed the door and went back to the living room.

The table was not cleared away, with wine and unfinished steaks.She sat down at the table and continued to drink.

When she came back from there, it was Chen Xiao who notified Chang Wei, but until now, Chen Xiao had never called her.

Gu Shi'an drank the wine, and slowly ate the cold steak.It wasn't until my mind became dizzy that I went to wash up and went back to the bedroom.

Although she slept late, she got up early the next morning because of Gu Lan's presence.He planned to get up early to make breakfast, but Gu Lan was already up when he got up.The steamed buns have been steamed and the porridge is being cooked.

Gu Shi'an pressed his swollen eyebrows, and said, "Cousin, why don't you sleep more?"

Gu Lan smiled and said, "I got up when I couldn't sleep. Go wash up. The porridge will be ready in a while. It's just right to go to work after eating."

Yes, what I told her earlier was that she was on a business trip.After returning from a business trip, he naturally has to go to work.Her business is not finished yet, but she has been missing for such a long time, how should she explain when she goes back.I don't know what's going on in the archives room now.

Gu Shi'an's mind came to his senses, he said yes, and hurriedly went to wash up.

After she washed up, Gu Lan took out steamed steamed buns that were white and plump. Before the porridge was ready, she warmed up a glass of milk for Gu Shi'an.

It was still early, Gu Shian was not in a hurry and did not eat fast.During the meal, he handed a card to Gu Lan and said, "You take this first, the password is the last few digits of my phone number. Don't rush out to find the class for the time being, and wait to see it first."

Gu Lan refused to accept her card anyway, pushed the card back, and said: "Don't give it to me, I bought everything that should be bought, I don't need money."

Gu Shi'an had already thought of her refusal. She put on a pitiful look and said, "I'm so pitiful at work. I usually eat instant noodles and quick-frozen dumplings in exchange. While you're here, sister-in-law, No matter what, you have to make up for me, right?"

Gu Lan knew what she was thinking, but she still refused to accept the card, and asked her to give her some cash, and she would go to the vegetable market to buy vegetables later.

Gu Shi'an now said that he had no cash, so he could just ask her to get it by herself.

Gu Lan had no choice but to put the card away.

Gu Lan didn't bring anything out, Gu Shi'an hesitated slightly when he went to work, and asked, "Cousin, do you have anything you need to pick up?"

Gu Lan lost his mind for a moment, then smiled lightly, shook his head, and said, "No, I don't have anything to take. I have already brought out everything I want to bring."

From there, all she needs to bring out is her ID.As for other things, how to deal with them has nothing to do with her.

Gu Shi'an nodded, and asked Gu Lan to call her if he had anything to do, and then went out.

The time when she arrived at Gu's was just right, she was just an insignificant member, and no one cared about her appearance.

She went directly to the reference room, and Sister Du breathed a sigh of relief when she saw her, and said, "You are finally back, and the matter with Mr. Chen has been dealt with?"

Gu Shi'an didn't react for a moment.Knowing that Chen Ying should have said hello here, he forced a smile and said, "Okay."

"It's good to come back. I'm the only one who is going crazy. If you don't come back, I will cry."

The little girl transferred from above was no longer in the reference room. Gu Shian was puzzled and said, "Didn't the above arrange someone to come over?"

Sister Du curled her lips and said, "Come on, she's like a young lady who can't do anything. Even if you do, you have to wipe her ass and clean up her aftermath. She doesn't want to stay here. I'll let her go back No. Now the little girl, no matter what class she comes to, she eats all by her looks."

What she said was a lot of gossip, Gu Shi'an just smiled and didn't ask anything.

She had been worrying about the affairs of the archives room all the time. Fortunately, during her absence, Sister Du couldn't do it alone, so the affairs of the archives room were put aside for the time being.It is said that after the matter at hand is dealt with, we must continue to organize.

She disappeared for such a long time, and there was not even a slight disturbance when she came back.Gu Shi'an thought it was over.Who knew that at noon, she received a call from her second aunt, Xu Jiarong.Ask her out to dinner.

This is simply the sun coming out from the west.She was not someone who would ask her out for dinner, and she didn't know what it would be like to ask her out.

Gu Shi'an did not refuse, packed up the materials and went to the agreed coffee shop.

At Gu Su's engagement banquet, Xu Jiarong still looked pompous.But in a short period of time, she was much haggard.The thick powder on her face did not cover her haggard face.

When Gu Shi'an walked over, she immediately stood up and called out to Shi'an with a smile.

Gu Shi'an politely called out to his second aunt, and then sat down opposite her.

Xu Jiarong didn't get into the topic directly, she asked Gu Shi'an what he wanted to eat, and then called the waiter over.

After ordering the dishes, Xu Jiarong squeezed out a smile and asked, "Shi'an, we are all one family. I won't play around. I called you out today. The second aunt wants to ask if you know Xiaosu Where is it? You should know that Xiao Su hasn't been home for a while."

I don't know where she got the news, but Gu Shi'an is sure that Gu Su is missing.

Thinking of that night, Gu Shi'an's eyes were indifferent.There was a faint smile on his face, and he said, "You know about my relationship with Gu Su, and it's impossible for her to tell me where she went."

Gu Su didn't know where he went during this time, and Gu Shi'an happened to be 'borrowed' by Chen Xiao, which was too much of a coincidence.She is very smart, think of it together.

She should have been paying attention to her all the time, otherwise it would be impossible for her to come over as soon as she returned to the company.

A bitter smile appeared on Xu Jiarong's face, and said: "Shi'an, no matter what you say, we are all one family. You know the current situation of the Gu family. Your second uncle married the Qi family just because you want... Xiao Su disappeared at this juncture, if the Qi family finds out, the consequences will be unimaginable. If you know where Xiao Su is, tell the second aunt, okay? That child has always been ignorant, so you just think it's for the company, okay?"

Gu Shi'an looked up at her, and said, "Second Auntie thinks that I hid Gu Su?"

Xu Jiarong came to her without any evidence, but she just wanted to test her.When Gu Shi'an asked her like that, she was stunned, then forced a smile, and said, "No, what are you doing hiding Xiao Su. The second aunt was a little anxious just now, so don't take it to heart."

The topic stopped there, during the meal Xu Jiarong rarely played the role of a kind elder, and asked about Gu Shi'an's work and life.

Gu Shi'an also acted obediently, and answered them one by one.

Knowing that Xu Jiarong was feeling uncomfortable, she didn't forget to say in the end: "Second Aunt, don't worry, I will definitely tell you if there is news about Gu Su. After all, this is a major event that will affect the company, and I will share which is more important. clear."

Xu Jiarong breathed a sigh of relief, forced a smile, and repeatedly praised her for being well-behaved and sensible.

After the meal was over, Xu Jiarong left quickly.Gu Shi'an watched her car leave, stood for a while, and then returned to the company.

Some time ago, she had been living with Chen Xiao, and she had a lot of things there.After work in the afternoon, she took out her mobile phone and called Chen Xiao.Going to get something.

Chen Xiao didn't know what he was doing, it took a long time before he answered the phone, and he gave a hello impatiently.

Gu Shi'an quickly said that he was going to fetch things.

Chen Xiao said impatiently, don't you have the key yourself?Then he asked Gu Shi'an to just throw the key under the doormat and then hung up the phone.

As if he had changed, Gu Shi'an froze for a moment, put his phone away, and went to stop the car.

Chen Guo wasn't there when he went back, and the house was cleaned by part-time workers.Gu Shi'an didn't stay, and went to the bedroom to pack his things.

She had just packed up her things and came out when she saw Chen Xiao walking over from the door.

It's only less than eight o'clock now, and I don't know where he drank the wine, the smell of alcohol is all over his body.Seeing her, he raised his eyelids and glanced at her, then continued to change shoes.

Gu Shi'an was slightly taken aback when he saw that he was drunk, and asked, "Where did you drink?"

A hint of sarcasm curled up on the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth, and he said, "Can you control where I drink?"

After saying this, he didn't even look at Gu Shi'an anymore, and stumbled to the bathroom.

He was obviously not like this that day, and he didn't know what kind of medicine he took again.Gu Shi'an choked, originally he was going to leave, but he remembered what happened recently, but he still didn't leave in the end.

Chen Xiao quickly vomited upside down in the bathroom, Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, put the things down, and poured a glass of water, only to find that the door of the bathroom was locked from the inside.

She reached out and knocked on the door.

The door didn't open right away, it opened from the inside after a while.Chen Xiao looked at her impatiently, and said, "Why haven't you left yet?"

Gu Shi'an choked, and before he could speak, the sarcasm at the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth hooked up again, and he said, "Do you think I need you to be so hypocritical?"

Although he was drunk, the words he said pierced straight to the heart.

Gu Shi'an didn't want to argue with drunk people, so he frowned, pursed his lips, and said, "Why am I being hypocritical?"

The sarcasm at the corner of Chen Xiao's mouth was even more dazzling, and he said, "Tsk, this acting talent is good, you can continue."

As soon as he said that, he pushed Gu Shi'an away, and walked out in a stumbling manner.

He was arrogant, and the water in Gu Shi'an's cup spilled out when he pushed it.

Who knows what kind of crazy he is talking about again, Gu Shi'an took a deep breath, put down the cup, did not manage the water on his clothes, and said: "You made it clear, what am I performing? "

Chen Xiao had collapsed on the sofa, took a glass of water to drink, and said with a smile: "You can continue."

Gu Shi'an was so angry that she couldn't explain clearly to a drunk person, she pursed her lips, didn't pursue it further, and slammed the door with her things and left.He planned to wait for Chen Xiao to wake up tomorrow before asking her.

After such a delay, it was nearly nine o'clock when she returned.She called Gu Lan, but she didn't expect Gu Lan to wait for her before eating.

Gu Shi'an never thought that she would wait for her all the time, and said: "Sister, you don't have to wait for me anymore. I'll come back later and you can eat by yourself. I'll just heat it up when I come back."

Gu Lan smiled and said, "I didn't mean to wait for you. I ate lunch late, and I'm not hungry yet. I'll serve the meal, go wash your hands."

Gu Shi'an agreed, put down his things and went to wash his hands.

After sitting down to eat, Gu Lan said, "Shi'an, I'm looking for a job today."

Gu Shi'an was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Didn't you say that you will find me after you have a rest?"

Gu Lan smiled and said, "I've been resting for a long time, it's time to look for it."

Gu Shi'an planned to accompany her to look for it by himself, but who would have thought that she would look for it by herself.Asked: "What job? Is it far from here?"

"It's not far, just two stops by car. I'm doing odd jobs in a small coffee shop." Gu Lan said with a smile.

When she said odd jobs, she meant being a shop assistant.After a slight pause, she continued with a wry smile: "It's just the beginning, I plan to take it slowly. You see, although I have a degree, I have no experience. It's just an empty shell, and I can't do anything. Why don't you start now?" Find a job at random, and then take your time. Don’t worry, if it’s not suitable for me, I’ll quit.”

In the past, she mostly listened to her parents, but this time she is very assertive.Being a shop assistant is not so easy to do, not only hard but also angry.She hasn't even attended class, so how can she get used to it.Gu Shi'an wanted to persuade her again, but Gu Lan was very persistent.Said it was already discussed with the boss.

Gu Shi'an had no choice but to tell her to try it first, and find another one if she wasn't used to it.

Gu Lan responded with a smile.

Gu Lan found a job and had to go to work the next day.Gu Shi'an was worried, and got up early to accompany her there.

The store is a small coffee shop that does delivery business.In addition to Gu Lan, there are only three people.The owner is a young girl who is not often around.In fact, there were only Gu Lan and another young girl in the store.

Hearing that the girl said that there were not many things going on in the store, Gu Shi'an was a little relieved.Greeted Gu Lan, repeatedly told her not to do it if she wasn't used to it, and then hurried to work.

There are many things to do this day, and I haven't rested since I joined the company.At noon, Gu Shi'an took the time to call Chen Xiao.

I don't know if he didn't bring his mobile phone or what, but no one answered Chen Xiao's mobile phone.Gu Shi'an dialed twice in a row before someone picked up the phone.

It was Chen Xiao's secretary who answered the phone and told Gu Shi'an that he was still in a meeting.Ask Gu Shi'an what's the matter, and she will tell Mr. Chen.

Gu Shi'an said it was nothing, but asked her to call her back after Chen Xiao's meeting.

The secretary responded with a full mouth, and promised to tell Chen Xiao.

He was still busy in the afternoon, and he didn't know if Chen Xiao was in meetings or something, and he didn't call her back until after get off work.

He couldn't be in a meeting all afternoon, either the secretary didn't tell him, or he didn't want to go back.

Gu Shi'an remembered what he said last night, was stunned for a moment, and after leaving the company, he called Assistant Sun.

In the past, Assistant Sun was always polite when calling, but this time it was not. He faltered and said that he was very busy, and he would call Gu Shi'an later and then hung up.

Gu Shi'an's heart sank. If she felt that what Chen Xiao said was drunk last night, then today's phone calls undoubtedly proved that what Chen Xiao said was not drunk.

But what he said was thoughtless, Gu Shi'an didn't even know where he made Chen Xiao feel hypocritical.

She stood for a while and called Chang Ji.

Chang Ji was not in the store today, Gu Shi'an hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Did something happen that I don't know about during the few days I was there?"

Chen Xiao used to be fine that night, it can only explain that something happened later.

Chang Li didn't know what she meant by asking this, and asked, "What's wrong?"

If there was something that was impossible not to say, Gu Shi'an just said it was nothing.He just said that he thought Chen Xiao was a little weird.

Chang Li now said that she didn't know much about Chen Xiao's affairs.

She really didn't know, the only thing she did this time was to rescue Gu Shi'an while Chen Xiao was leading Xiao Si away.Chen Xiao took care of the other matters by himself.

Gu Shi'an didn't stay on this topic, and asked how the situation of those two people was going.

Chang said: "I don't know, those two people were picked up by Chen Xiao's people on the day you came back. The man was seriously injured and had to find a place to recuperate. And the woman, after a while If you can’t quit, you have to find a special person to watch.”

With these two people on her side, she obviously couldn't take care of them.

Gu Shi'an didn't expect that Chen Xiao would pick him up. He was taken aback for a moment, and after a few words, he hung up the phone.

Chang asked her again if there was anything wrong, but she didn't say anything.

Gu Shi'an was a little absent-minded, got in the car and called Gu Lan, asking when she would leave work.She went to wait for her to go to work together.

Gu Lan told her not to go there, saying that the coffee shop would not close until nine o'clock.She will go back herself.

There is only one meal at noon, and you have to come back to eat at night.Gu Shi'an planned to go back and make dinner first, and pick her up when she was about to get off work.

She has always been a little absent-minded, and even almost cut her hand when chopping vegetables.

At eight o'clock, when she was ready to go downstairs to pick up Gu Lan, her phone rang.She originally thought it was Chen Xiao calling, but who knew it was not, the call was from Qin Tang.

Qin Tang has been elusive recently and rarely sees anyone.

Gu Shi'an picked up the phone, and just after feeding him, Qin Tang on the other side of the phone asked, "Where are you?"

Gu Shi'an looked around almost reflexively, and then replied: "It's downstairs."

Qin Tang didn't ask her where she had been some time ago, which proved that he hadn't called her during this time.Gu Shi'an tentatively asked, "Have you been on a business trip?"

Qin Tang on the other end of the phone hummed and said, "I went abroad for a while, and it may take a week before I can come back."

Gu Shi'an nodded, oh.

Qin Tang paused slightly on the other end of the phone, and then said, "I have something to talk to you about when I get back."

Gu Shi'an was taken aback, and said, "If it's urgent, you can talk about it on the phone."

Qin Tang said flatly: "No hurry, it will be the same when you come back."

I don't know what he meant by making this phone call. Gu Shi'an was puzzled, but he didn't ask any further and said hello.

Qin Tang seemed to be just to inform her that he had something to talk to her when he came back, so he hung up the phone without saying anything more.

Gu Shi'an was a little confused, and stood holding his phone for a while before putting it away, and went to pick up Gu Lan.
