Cheating dad, gambling mom, I'm reborn with a smile

After the event, Cheng Yi wanted to send Gu Jin back first, and then go back with Cheng's mother.

But at the entrance of the banquet hall, Cheng Qi, wearing black, was seen leaning against the front of the car.

He was on a business trip a few days ago, and Gu Jin hadn't seen him for a long time.

"Brother Cheng, why are you here?" Gu Jin walked up and greeted him.

Cheng Qi smiled and said, "I'll pick you up after get off work."

Hearing what he said, Gu Jin didn't think much about it.

I just thought he came to pick up Cheng Yi and Cheng's mother.

Pointing to the people behind him, he said, "They are in the back. I'm leaving first."

"Ajin, wait, let Cheng Qi take you there." Cheng Yi came over and saw Gu Jin about to get into her car. She glared at Cheng Qi with disappointment.

Gu Jin paused, "?"

"Sister Cheng, someone from my company..." Before she could finish her words, she looked over and saw that the white car that was originally parked at the door had disappeared.

Gu Jin picked up the phone and was about to make a call, but Cheng Qi stopped her.

"I asked your secretary to go back first. I'll take you back."

Gu Jin turned on his cell phone and sure enough, ten minutes ago, his secretary asked him about his car leaving.

Cheng Yi raised her eyebrows and looked at Cheng Qi with a look that said, "You finally got it."

"You send the little girl back, I will go back with your sister." Cheng's mother was no longer happy to see her son. She pulled Cheng Yi towards her car, fearing that Cheng Qi would be rejected if she was a step slower.

Gu Jin:?

Cheng Qi: ......

"Let's go," Cheng Qi opened the passenger door.

Gu Jin got on directly and fastened his seat belt.

Cheng Qi waited for her to sit firmly, closed the car door, walked around the car body, went to the driver's side, opened the door and got in.

The car starts.

"Just came back?" Gu Jin glanced at Cheng Qi who looked exhausted.

He probably hadn't changed his clothes for a long time, and his body still smelled of sweat from intense exercise. The jasmine scent in the car's body was not very bad, but Gu Jin felt that he should go back and wash up, so why did he come here?

Cheng Qi nodded.

"I just got off the plane and came here."

Gu Jin was slightly stunned.

Except for the day when Cheng Qi said he wanted to pursue her, he rarely expressed himself so directly.

Gu Jin pursed her lips and pinched the hem of her dress with her fingers. She didn't react even though her skirt was wrinkled.

"Want to see you."

As soon as these words fell.

Gu Jin’s hands froze.

So straightforward?

She buttoned her skirt nervously, afraid that Cheng Qi would say something unexpected.

The carriage fell into dead silence.

Neither of them spoke again.

After an unknown amount of time, Gu Jin couldn't stand the stuffy environment in the car anymore, so he opened the window and said, "It's really hot today!"

Cheng Qi held back his laughter.

He glanced at the tips of her red ears.

Didn't expose her.

He echoed, "It is quite hot."

He cooperated very well and opened the window on his side of the car as well.

In the deep winter, the north wind blew in through the car windows, and in less than half a minute, Gu Jin was chilled to the bone. However, she lay on the car window calmly with her hands in her clasps, and refused to look into the car.

He still insisted that it was too hot.

But in fact, her face had already turned red due to the wind.

Cheng Qi chuckled and reached out to pull her in.

"Is it cold?"

Gu Jin, "Not Cold"

"Oh, then I'm cold."

Cheng Qi pressed the button and raised the car window.

Gu Jin breathed a sigh of relief.

Finally closed.

In the winter in the capital, it is not suitable to open the windows. (Please refer to the deep winter in the north, late at night, open the car windows...)

Gu Jin buried his head and said nothing, like a little squirrel.

"Where are you planning to go for the New Year?" Cheng Qi took the initiative to break the silence.

Gu Jin thought for a moment, "We'll spend the New Year in the capital. My aunt will come with us. We'll go see Teacher Lu before the New Year. Although we don't have to visit relatives this year, my aunt said that we won't go out this year. We'll wait until Teacher Lu comes out before we go out."

Cheng Qi nodded.

"On New Year's Eve, there will be a fireworks feast in the suburbs of the imperial capital. Do you want to go?" Cheng Qi paused and said, "Around 11 o'clock, it won't delay you from having dinner with your family."

Gu Jin thought about it and decided that according to the rules of the imperial capital, the family would have a reunion dinner on New Year’s Eve, and then it would be time for the children to have fun. As for staying up all night to see the New Year coming, in previous years, Teacher Lu and Professor Gu were busy and were rarely at home on New Year’s Eve.

There is no custom of staying up all night to celebrate the New Year in their family.

"it is good."

"Visiting Teacher Lu during the New Year?" Cheng Qi asked.

Gu Jin nodded.

"I received news that the drug research on Teacher Lu has yielded results. If nothing unexpected happens, her case will be decided soon."

Cheng Qi nodded, "The research progress in the institute is very fast, and the results should be out by the end of next year."

Gu Jin suddenly thought of something, "Brother Cheng, do you know anything about Wen Li?"

After He Yang went in, Gu Jin felt uneasy.

I always feel like something big is going to happen.

Cheng Qi really knew, "She is studying abroad. We have someone keeping an eye on her. Anything that happens will be reported back to China."

"Ah."

Gu Jin's uneasiness did not diminish much because of Cheng Qi's words.

The car quickly arrived at the entrance of the community.

Gu Jin came down, and Cheng Qi also came down.

She looked at Cheng Qi in confusion. It was quite cold outside, so why did he come down?

Cheng Qi smiled without saying anything, turned around and walked to the back of the car, took out a big bouquet of roses, and walked in front of Gu Jin.

"Congratulations, Mr. Gu, on reaching new heights in your career." Cheng Qi stood opposite her.

Gu Jin naturally took it.

"Thank you, Officer Cheng."

The two looked at each other and smiled.

"Let's go back." Cheng Qi resisted the urge to hug her and reached out to pat her shoulder.

"Ah."

After waving at him, Gu Jin turned and walked into the community.

Watching her back disappear, Cheng Qi retracted his gaze, returned to the car, and drove away.

Gu Jin returned home and stood on the balcony. He didn't look away until he saw the car leave the community.

"Ajin, what are you doing?" Gu Qi saw her sitting on the balcony suspiciously since she came back, and he didn't know what she was doing.

Gu Jin regained his composure and said, "It's okay. I'll see if Brother Cheng has left."

"He sent you back?" Gu Qi frowned.

Gu Jin nodded.

Gu Qi poured two glasses of milk from the kitchen, handed one to him, and pointed to the sofa, "Let's chat."

Gu Jin held the warm milk in his hand, looked at his father's gossipy expression, and twitched his lips.

"Dad, what do you want to ask?"

Gu Qi also did not hide his curiosity, "What is your relationship with Cheng Qi?"

Gu Jin thought for a moment and said, "Friend."

Gu Jin, "Did you lie to your father about being old?"

"He's so attentive to you, taking you to school and home. Would a friend of the opposite sex be like this? Tell the truth."

It’s not that Gu Jin didn’t explain, but she herself hadn’t figured out what the relationship between the two was.

Cheng Qi only said that he was pursuing her, and he had been pursuing her all the time, giving her a bouquet of flowers a week and a gift a month. He was quite frequent in giving her gifts, but apart from the sentence "I want to see you" tonight, he didn't say anything out of the ordinary, so she naturally didn't think about it.

The two want to develop further.

"He's chasing me."

Gu Qi looked as if he knew it.

He didn't believe that Cheng Qi didn't have any other thoughts in his mind.
