After I washed off my heavy makeup, the aloof CEO regretted it

After going out, Geng Yuchen stopped a waiter and politely asked for a bucket of ice water. The reason given was that he wanted to chill the drink.

The things were delivered quickly. The man carried a small bucket of ice water and walked to the bathroom...

Ten minutes later, Geng Yuchen walked back to the private room with a pale face.

I just felt my teeth chattering and my ears buzzing.

feeling bad.

However, this is what you deserve.

Who made him think so wildly? If you do something wrong, you should be punished.

Once you wake up completely, you won't do it again.

This time the mistake was more serious, and simply being punished was obviously not enough.

After he returns, he will reflect seriously, kneel in front of the table, and write a 10,000-word self-examination.

Hearing the footsteps, Gu Nian raised his head and glanced at him, and couldn't help but ask strangely:

"Why are your clothes and hair wet?"

Geng Yuchen adjusted his expression and explained in a calm tone:

"The faucet in the bathroom was broken and it splashed all over me when I used it."

After saying that, he couldn't help coughing twice.

"That's it!"

Gu Nian didn't have any doubts after hearing this, and casually said, "Wipe it with a towel to avoid catching a cold."

A cold is not a trivial matter. If it becomes serious and causes a fever, you have to take medicine and rest at home even if you don't go to the hospital. It will take at least three days to recover.

She only had ten days to pull back the plot, and the variety show was ready. She couldn't afford to delay even one day, let alone three days.

"it is good."

Geng Yuchen responded in a deep voice, feeling an additional layer of shame in his heart.

He had such shameful and bastard thoughts towards her, but she was kind-hearted and worried about whether he would catch a cold or get sick, which made him feel particularly uncomfortable.

A villain with evil intentions like him is like a toad lying at the bottom of a well dreaming of swans. He is not worthy of her care at all.

"I've finished ordering everything."

Gu Nian stretched out her slender fingertips and pushed the menu back to him, "Take a look and see if you want to add anything."

"Need not."

Geng Yuchen handed the menu to the waiter, took the towel from the other person's hand, and said, "According to this lady's order."

The originally pure voice was mixed with a bit of hoarseness.

"Ok."

The waiter bowed, took the menu and left.

Another waiter, after pouring them two cups of warm barley tea, also walked towards the door carrying the teapot.

Before leaving, he turned around and closed the door.

At this time, only Geng Yuchen and Gu Nian were left in the private room.

The man grabbed the white towel and wiped it on his head roughly twice, then threw the towel aside and sat back opposite Gu Nian.

This time, not only did he not speak, he even lowered his eyelids and did not dare to look at her again.

The reason why I had the wrong thoughts just now was simply because these eyes were dishonest.

As long as you control your eyes and don't look around, you probably won't make the same mistake again.

"Every time I met you, I was working in different places. Once I was moving bricks at a construction site, and the other time I was working as a tutor."

Gu Nian picked up the tea cup in front of her, put it to her lips and took a sip. She was the first to break the silence and asked, knowingly, "Why, you just graduated not long ago?"

"No, I haven't graduated yet. I am a senior this year."

Geng Yuchen shook his head, put his hands on his knees like a primary school student, and replied politely, "I am on winter vacation recently. I have more free time, so I work here and there to earn some money."

Being asked this by a girl made him both happy and worried.

I'm happy because every time we meet, this girl is polite and distant. This was the first time I asked about him.

Does this mean...

In the following conversation, if she finds something in common, such as similar hobbies, similar views, etc., will she be willing to become friends with him?

Even if his inference was wrong, she had no such intention and just asked casually, which was enough to make him happy.

As long as he could talk to her, he would be happy.

The worry is because she is working and he is still in school. This is not a common ground.

Moreover, there is a high probability that she may be a little older than him in terms of age.

So he was very worried that she would think he was immature and not want to be friends with him.

"I see."

Gu Nian put down the tea cup in his hand and glanced at the slightly reserved and handsome boy in front of him. The scene when they met a few days ago could not help but come to mind.

It was in a private room in the bar, which was slightly larger than here.

She was full of frivolous words, threw a wad of money in front of him, and insisted on supporting him; he responded politely at first, but then gradually became angry and mocked her as an "old aunt"...

I thought that according to the plot, subsequent meetings would maintain this antagonistic relationship.

Unexpectedly, this time they met, it was completely different from before, and the painting style turned into the opposite.

In the same private room, the same two people can sit at a table and drink tea and chat in such harmony.

Thinking about it, it is true that fate plays tricks on people and everything in the world is unpredictable.

Last time, she was following the plot, and her performance was really not easy; this time, she came with a plan. Frankly speaking, it was more stressful than last time.

After a pause, Gu Nian asked again: "What major?"

Geng Yuchen told the truth: "Business management."

"What are the employment prospects for this major?"

"Yes, although I still have one year to graduate, many of my classmates have already signed contracts with companies, and they are all large and powerful companies."

"Why did you learn this in the first place?"

"I like business very much and am more interested in it."

After answering this question, Geng Yuchen closed his mouth, and the private room became quiet again.

Gu Nian raised his eyebrows, couldn't help but slow down his speech, and questioned:

"When you usually chat with your classmates, do you only answer questions and don't ask questions?"

This guy is weird today.

He answered whatever she asked. He didn't speak when she didn't ask, and he didn't ask her any questions in return. He spoke even less than she did.

It feels like... it's like an interview.

I remember when we first met, and when we met by chance in the supermarket, he didn't seem like this. What happened today?

No.

If it stays like this, the plan she came up with will not go forward.

So we have to figure out the reason for his change.

"No."

Geng Yuchen answered frankly, "I will ask."

"Oh."

Gu Nian nodded slightly, showing a look of sudden realization, "It turns out that Classmate Geng only does this in front of strangers!"

Then, she imitated his tone and said quietly:

"Actually, if you think about it carefully, it's understandable. After all, we just met by chance and may not even be considered friends. In this case, it's normal not to want to ask anything."

The male protagonist has a deep mind and a sensitive personality, so direct questions can easily arouse suspicion.
