why are you so seductive
Chapter 19
"Dad, how did you settle the matter of Jin Minxuan?" After visiting the company, Gu Siqi returned to the general manager's office and found that Gu Junliang was awake, so she couldn't help asking.
Gu Junliang looked at her suspiciously, and asked without answering, "Why did you think of this?"
Gu Siqi didn't intend to hide anything, she thought for a while, and said, "I heard Director Lu say that Jin Minxuan has been discharged from the hospital, I didn't expect her to be sick for so long, today I suddenly remembered, I want to know more..."
Temporarily changed the name of Lu Fanke to be called Director Lu, but still felt that the name was not convenient.
While straightening his tie, Gu Junliang said casually: "Minxuan is already very weak, so I gave her a lot of money to let her rest for a while."
Gu Siqi's guess was right, she knew that Gu Junliang must have used money, Jin Minxuan supported An.
Still, she was a little curious, "Then she didn't say anything after receiving the money?"
"What else can I say after receiving the money?" Gu Junliang seemed to be laughing at her innocence.
Gu Siqi stopped talking and lowered her head thoughtfully.
Gu Junliang didn't notice her strangeness, paused, and said to himself: "Since Minxuan has been discharged from the hospital, let's take some time to ask her to have dinner together."
Gu Siqi suddenly came to her senses, "Okay, I'll ask Director Lu later to see when it's convenient for them."
Gu Junliang nodded slightly, suddenly thought of something, and said: "In the future, you can ask A Ke if you don't understand anything. Although she hasn't been in the company for a long time, she is careful and responsible. If you ask her for advice, you can learn a lot. thing."
Gu Siqi didn't express her opinion immediately, but she had been thinking about it for a long time, and said cautiously: "Dad, Director Lu once said that you are her relatives, so could it be that she is really your illegitimate daughter?"
Gu Junliang didn't expect her to say that at all, he was stunned, and laughed inexplicably: "What are you thinking about all day long? Where did I get an illegitimate daughter, I obviously only have your precious daughter! A Ke How could she be!"
Not a lover, not a daughter.Gu Siqi breathed a sigh of relief.
But when she asked in a relaxed tone how they met each other, Gu Junliang sighed and said vaguely: "It's a long story, and when the time is right, I'll explain it to you slowly."
Gu Siqi was faintly disappointed that he didn't get the information he wanted to inquire about the most.
Afraid that Gu Junliang would be worried, Gu Siqi didn't tell him about being robbed, thinking that there was nothing valuable inside, she didn't go to the police either.
The mobile phone Lu Fanke gave her was still slippery, and she wanted to buy a mobile phone case when she was free.
This phone is actually nothing special, but this is the second time that Lu Fanke gave it to her, and he specially reminded her.If it really breaks again, then she will really have no face to face Lu Fanke in the future...
The mobile phone looks like new, the card is new, and there is not a single number in it.
Today is the first day of work, Gu Junliang did not arrange substantive work for her, but asked Lu Fanke to take her by the hand.
Gu Siqi was looking down at the new mobile phone, and didn't even notice that someone came in.
The high-heeled shoes stepped on the thick carpet without a sound, and Lu Fanke walked slowly. She walked over and handed the company directory that had just been printed out to Gu Siqi's eyes, and said, "You may use this thing often in the future. If necessary, you'd better enter all the contact information of these people into the phone."
Gu Siqi raised her head and took the A4 paper over.
"Thank you."
Lu Fanke was still holding a bunch of documents in his hand, and handed them to her together, "These are the company's articles of association and product introduction, you should read it yourself first, this will help you get familiar with the company faster, and you can ask questions at any time if you don't understand. I."
Looking at the heavy documents in her hand, Gu Siqi felt that she might spend the whole afternoon on it.
Lu Fanke walked to the other side of the sofa, turned on the laptop and began to process emails, and the sound of "crackling" typing on the keyboard suddenly resounded throughout the office.
Gu Siqi looked up, and saw her slender fingers dancing quickly on the keyboard like playing a piano.
Lu Fanke, who was concentrating on his work, lost some softness on his face, giving people a feeling of rigor and inaccessibility.
This woman is really becoming more and more invisible.
Realizing that someone was watching her, Lu Fanke didn't look sideways, and said coldly: "Look at your profile, what am I doing?"
Gu Siqi's heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly lowered her head, opened the first page of the company's articles of association, and read it carefully.
Fortunately, each of them has their own affairs, and the two of them completely ignored the previous unhappiness when they were alone, so as not to make the atmosphere embarrassing.
When she saw the part of the company's products, the parameters above gave Gu Siqi a headache, she had to stop, and asked softly: "Excuse me, what do these data represent?"
Lu Fanke diverted his attention away from the computer screen, glanced at the paper she handed over, frowned, and said, "These things... It's hard for you to understand when I explain it to you now, and the next time I have a chance to touch the product I'll tell you again."
"All right……"
Gu Siqi had no choice but to skip this page and continue reading.
Before I knew it, time passed quickly.
Gu Junliang is said to have gone to the laboratory, but he hasn't come back yet.
Originally, Gu Siqi wanted to follow, but he refused.
After finally reading all the materials in her hand, Gu Siqi moved her sore neck, raised her head, and found that Lu Fanke was looking at her non-stop.
She was heartbroken.
Lu Fanke looked as usual, broke the silence and said, "Have you finished reading?"
"It's over." Gu Siqi replied honestly, like a well-behaved student.
Lu Fanke raised his eyebrows, and spoke like a teacher: "It's not enough to just read it once. If you are working with Mr. Gu, you have to memorize these materials by heart."
Gu Siqi shrugged and said confidently, "This is absolutely fine."
Anyway, it would be boring to go home, so she could take these materials home and study them carefully.
Lu Fanke closed the computer, and said solemnly, "I'm here for now, tomorrow is the weekend, Mr. Gu wants you to have a good rest."
"Wait." Gu Siqi stood up, "Are you free tomorrow night?"
"Us?" Lu Fanke didn't know why.
Gu Siqi was a little unnatural, so don't start, "It's you and Jin Minxuan... My dad heard the news that she was discharged from the hospital and wanted to invite you to dinner together."
……
In the evening, Gu Siqi personally drove Gu Junliang home.
Because he didn't have a good rest, Gu Junliang looked very tired and kept his eyes closed the whole time.
Gu Siqi couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw it. She wanted to drive faster, but she was worried that she might have an accident due to her poor driving skills.
Before going home, Gu Siqi specially called Aunt Wu and asked her to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
The moment the door was opened, the smell of food rushed over, Gu Siqi walked in holding Gu Junliang's hand, and said loudly, "Auntie, we are back!"
Aunt Wu greeted her with a flustered expression, "Madam has been waiting for you for a long time."
Mrs?
Gu Siqi looked up, and without warning, she saw Ling Mengyuan crossing her legs, sitting on the sofa admiring the manicure she had just done.
Hearing the movement at the door, Ling Mengyuan stood up in slow motion, with a bright smile on her face, and said softly: "My husband has worked hard, come and eat!"
Gu Junliang's exhausted face became even uglier. He stared straight at Ling Mengyuan, speaking poorly, "What do you want to do?"
Ling Mengyuan came over twisting Xiaoman's waist, grabbed Gu Junliang's tie naturally, and said bitterly: "Why do husbands and wives talk like this? My daughter is so sad to hear that."
Gu Junliang slammed her hand down, and said unceremoniously: "You and I have long lost the relationship between husband and wife, so stop acting hypocritically in front of me."
Ling Mengyuan raised her hand to let Gu Siqi see the back of her red hand clearly, her eyes were sad, and she sobbed, "Siqi, did you see that your father hit me! This is evidence of domestic violence!"
Gu Siqi was caught between the two of them in a dilemma, she turned her gaze to Gu Junliang, and begged, "Dad, can you treat Mom better?"
Gu Junliang snorted coldly, and said earnestly: "Siqi, your mother is crazy, don't be fooled by her."
Ling Mengyuan suddenly threw herself into Gu Siqi's arms, hugged her and cried, "Woooooh, your father is so cruel, he doesn't want me anymore. Siqi, I'm your mother, if you don't even want me, Then I won't live!"
"..." Gu Siqi was very helpless.
In order to prevent Ling Mengyuan and Gu Junliang from fighting, Gu Siqi took Ling Mengyuan back to the new residence without even taking care of the meal.
Ling Mengyuan came here for the first time. She looked around and said, "Your father bought a new house without even telling me about it. Such a nice house was actually given to that vixen. He is really generous."
The vixen in Ling Mengyuan's mouth naturally refers to Lu Fanke. I don't know why, these three words sound particularly harsh at this moment.
Gu Siqi held her hand and changed the subject abruptly: "Mom, the room hasn't been cleaned up for you yet, so you can sleep with me tonight."
Ling Mengyuan looked preoccupied, and said nonchalantly, "Okay, I'll sleep with you."
"Then mom, go take a bath quickly, and go to bed early after washing." Gu Siqi said happily.
Before Ling Mengyuan could bring her luggage, she was wearing Gu Siqi's pajamas, which was just the right size.
Due to proper maintenance, Ling Mengyuan looks like she is in her early 30s without makeup. People who don't know will definitely misunderstand that she is Gu Siqi's sister.
Only when she leaned in and looked carefully, could she find the subtle wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
"Why are you in a daze." Ling Mengyuan poked Gu Siqi's forehead leaning against the bed.
Gu Siqi rubbed the place where she poked the pain, and said hesitantly, "Mom, why are you back all of a sudden?"
Ling Mengyuan sat on the edge of the bed, and said angrily: "From your tone, you seem to welcome me back, don't you?"
"How is it possible!" Gu Siqi leaned over and hugged her from behind, put her head on her shoulder, smelled the fragrance of her hair, and sighed softly, "I wish you would never leave me again."
When Ling Mengyuan heard this, her back stiffened, and the expression on her face also changed subtly.
Gu Siqi noticed something, she pulled away, looked at her side face without makeup, and said hesitantly: "Mom, you didn't come back again because you ran out of money, did you?"
Ling Mengyuan turned around abruptly, and reprimanded: "My daughter and my husband are here, can't I come back to see you? Why don't you say that money is not money, it hurts feelings."
Gu Siqi muttered: "You also know how to hurt feelings, so why didn't you leave me a penny last time?"
Ling Mengyuan reached out and pinched her cheek, and coaxed softly: "Credit cards are not everything, I can't pay cash for a taxi? Damn girl, look at you for being stingy."
Gu Siqi was still brooding about what happened last time, and retorted: "Who told you not to learn how to drive? If you could drive, why would you need to take a taxi?"
Ling Mengyuan said triumphantly, "Who says I can't drive?"
"You can drive?" Gu Siqi looked shocked.
But when she woke up the next day and found that Ling Mengyuan was no longer by her side, something even more astonishing happened.
The car keys she put on the table disappeared without a trace, and Ling Mengyuan actually left her early in the morning, and drove away her Mercedes-Benz in the underground garage without saying hello!
At first, Gu Siqi thought she was going out to have breakfast, but she waited and waited until [-]:[-] noon when Ling Mengyuan didn't come back, and finally realized something was wrong.
She took the new mobile phone and called Gu Junliang without delay.
After listening to her statement, Gu Junliang said calmly, "Don't worry, she can't run away, she is pestering me for money at home now."
The home he mentioned, of course, refers to the old house before.
Gu Siqi didn't have any money on her, and the car was taken away, so she couldn't move an inch.
She wanted to rush home as soon as possible to check the situation, but Gu Junliang said with a strong attitude: "Don't come over, as soon as you come, she will use you as a persimmon, and the situation will be even more difficult to deal with."
After these two incidents of being "robbed", Gu Siqi suddenly realized that Ling Mengyuan hadn't changed at all, she was still that selfish person, she didn't love her at all.
But in the end it is the flesh and blood connection, Gu Siqi was a little worried, "Dad, promise me, please don't hurt her."
Gu Junliang pondered for a while, and said, "Don't worry, I won't touch her, and I will definitely not let her catch me and use it to threaten me."
Gu Siqi couldn't help but sweat for him.
At the end, Gu Junliang comforted her and said, "I will take care of it and call you when the time comes."
Because of his words, Gu Siqi waited quietly all the time, and when it was getting dark, she finally had something to look forward to.
But unfortunately, the person on the other end of the phone was not Gu Junliang.
Ling Mengyuan's voice revealed a hint of joy after victory, and she said to her complacently: "Siqi, now that Mom is rich, how about Mom treating you to a big meal tonight?"
Could it be that Gu Junliang compromised?
Gu Siqi was startled secretly, and said impatiently: "Mom, what did you do to my father?"
Ling Mengyuan's voice was suddenly displeased: "Why did you talk to me? I'm not a tigress, what else can I do to him?"
Gu Siqi hesitated: "But Mom, Dad and I have an appointment for dinner tonight, do you think you can change the day?"
But Ling Mengyuan said: "Silly boy, we are all one family, what are you and me? What difference does it make if your father invites me?"
Gu Siqi was speechless.
……
The agreed time was seven o'clock in the evening, and Gu Siqi called Lu Fanke an hour in advance and told him the name of the restaurant.
On the phone, Lu Fanke's voice was a little distorted, and it sounded even more emotionless, lightly: "Understood, we will arrive on time."
Before hanging up the phone, Gu Siqi hurriedly called her to stop, but he hesitated for a long time and finally got up the courage to say: "Can you wait for me downstairs? I don't have any money with me, so I might have to sit with you for a while." The car passed by..."
After hearing this, Lu Fanke was stunned for a long time, and then responded lightly: "Understood, I will call you when the time comes."
Half an hour later, they met downstairs.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Gu Siqi obviously felt that Jin Minxuan had lost a lot of weight, and she couldn't bear to look directly at her.
Maybe it was because she had just recovered from a serious illness, but it might also be because she was soft-spoken when she took people's money. After seeing her, Jin Minxuan no longer looked as grim as before, and even took the initiative to say hello to her: "Miss Gu, hello."
Looking at her who was still pale, Gu Siqi always felt a little awkward, "Hello."
Jin Minxuan actually smiled at her, and said relaxedly: "In the future, we will all work in the same company, forget all the unpleasantness before, maybe we can still be friends."
Leaving aside whether they can be friends or not, Gu Siqi always feels that her words are very problematic.
She didn't hide her surprise this time, staring blankly at the impeccable smile on Jin Minxuan's face, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
She couldn't help thinking: Is this person really generous or a good actor?How could it be so nonchalant?
But before she could figure it out, Lu Fanke, who had been silent all this time, interrupted: "Let's talk in the car, don't make Mr. Gu wait too long."
A taxi just came by.
Gu Siqi consciously sat in front.
Since then, nothing has been said.
When they arrived at the appointed place, Ling Mengyuan had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing her sitting bored in the private room alone, Gu Siqi asked in confusion, "Mom, where is my dad?"
Ling Mengyuan was leisurely and calm, with a slightly lazy tone, "Your father is tired, I will let him rest at home, I came alone."
It sounds unbelievable.
Gu Junliang didn't come, why didn't you tell her in advance?
For some reason, Gu Siqi suddenly felt a little uneasy, and she hurriedly took out her mobile phone to call Gu Junliang.
Who would have thought that before she dialed the number, Ling Mengyuan snatched the phone away.
Ling Mengyuan gave her a hard look, ignored the presence of outsiders, and reprimanded her: "You girl is really disobeying me more and more, your father is sleeping at home now, why do you have to call and quarrel with him? ?”
"Sleep?" Gu Siqi felt even more curious.
It was still very early, how could Gu Junliang go to bed to rest?
Suddenly, Lu Fanke, who sensed that the atmosphere was not right, stepped in and said, "Since Mr. Gu didn't come today, let's go first."
"Stop." Ling Mengyuan had an arrogant attitude, squinting at her, "I haven't divorced you Mr. Gu yet, and I'm still Mrs. Gu, do you look down on me or are you afraid to have dinner with me?"
This aggressive trick worked, and Lu Fanke really stopped.
She had a smile on her face, her voice didn't fluctuate, and she said, "Since it's Mrs. Gu's invitation to dinner, it's our honor."
After finishing speaking, Lu Fanke sat down with Jin Minxuan who had an inexplicable face.
Ling Mengyuan glanced at Jin Minxuan, frowned and said, "Who is this?"
Although Jin Minxuan was at a loss, when she heard that the person in front of her was the boss's wife, she hurriedly introduced with a smile: "Hi Mrs. Gu, my name is Jin Minxuan, and I work as a Japanese translator in Yixin."
"So it's Miss Jin." Ling Mengyuan recalled the kidnapping incident that Gu Siqi told her before, and her expression became very intriguing.
Taking advantage of the interval between looking at the other party, she silently calculated the next countermeasure in her heart.
Ling Mengyuan thought that Lu Fanke came here alone today, but she didn't expect that there was an extra person surnamed Jin.
The more people there are, the harder things are.
But looking at Jin Minxuan's sick and out of shape, it should be easier to fool, right?
Who cares, she has a clear goal, except for Lu Fanke, everyone else is vulnerable in her eyes.
Jin Minxuan was uncomfortable being watched by Ling Mengyuan. She didn't know why the other party kept paying attention to her, so she could only apologize.
Ling Mengyuan realized that she was being impolite, she looked away slightly, and said in a casual way: "Miss Jin looks very bad, you must eat more later and make up for it."
Jin Minxuan didn't answer, but Lu Fanke who was sitting next to her answered for her: "That's for sure."
When the waiter brought in the menu, Lu Fanke took the menu and picked out the most expensive dishes.
Seeing this, Ling Mengyuan hurriedly reminded: "Is it enough to order so much?"
Lu Fanke looked at her in surprise, "I only ordered three dishes, does Mrs. Gu think my order is too expensive?"
The corner of Ling Mengyuan's mouth twitched, and she forced a smile, "How could that be?" She waved her hand, pretending not to notice, "You can order whatever you want."
"Then I won't be polite." Lu Fanke smiled meaningfully.
In fact, Lu Fanke saw that the other party was not kind. She originally wanted Ling Mengyuan to bleed, but after thinking about it, Gu Junliang might have given Ling Mengyuan the money for the treat, so she had to give up.
In the end, I ordered a total of six dishes and one soup, which was obviously too much to finish.
When Lu Fanke closed the menu, Ling Mengyuan said, "If you want to eat, why not order a bottle of red wine!"
When the red wine was served, Ling Mengyuan couldn't help asking someone to open it. She poured it for herself first, and said with a smile, "Come on, I respect you."
Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan looked at each other without moving.
"Why, don't give face?" Ling Mengyuan was upset.
Gu Siqi felt that Ling Mengyuan's behavior was really suspicious, so she quickly pressed her hand and said in a low voice: "Mom, the dishes are not ready yet, so there is no reason to drink first."
Ling Mengyuan also realized that she was a little impulsive, she rubbed her sore wrist, immediately changed her face, and said with a bright smile: "Then drink later after eating."
This meal was really weird.
When four strange women got together, there was actually nothing to talk about.
Four people, four thoughts, seem to be competing secretly, whoever loses his temper first will lose.
Everyone buried their heads in their own food, except for the occasional sound of chopsticks and spoons touching the dishes, the entire private room was eerily quiet.
Gu Siqi didn't know what to eat in this oppressive atmosphere. Halfway through the meal, she excused herself to go to the bathroom, secretly took away the phone when Ling Mengyuan wasn't paying attention, and hid outside to make a call.
It rang for a long time, but no one answered the phone.
Gu Siqi became more and more anxious, and when she was about to call again, suddenly someone behind her said leisurely, "What are you doing?"
Gu Siqi was taken aback, she turned around abruptly, and saw Ling Mengyuan standing behind her with a cold face.
Before Gu Siqi could think of a speech, she was attracted by the things in Ling Mengyuan's hands.
I saw Ling Mengyuan holding red wine in one hand and cell phone in the other, her eyes flickering on and off.
The screen was on, and Gu Siqi easily saw a missed call on it, which was exactly what she just called!
Gu Siqi couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Why is Dad's cell phone here?"
Ling Mengyuan glanced at the phone screen, "I'm also very surprised, probably because I was too hasty to pick up the wrong thing when I left."
Looking at the imperceptible smile hidden in her eyes, Gu Siqi always felt that something was wrong.
Recalling that Ling Mengyuan said before that Gu Junliang could not come because he was resting at home, she was secretly startled, and blurted out: "Mom, tell me the truth, what happened to my dad?"
Ling Mengyuan said calmly, "Your father is in good health, what else can he do?"
Gu Siqi just shook his head.
Ling Mengyuan frowned, "You are your mother, can I still lie to you?" She lowered her head, slid her finger on the screen, and said nonchalantly: "If you are worried, I will call Aunt Wu right now, and you Ask her."
The call was connected quickly, and Gu Siqi snatched it immediately, and said straight to the point: "Auntie, I'm Siqi, is my dad at home? Is he okay?"
Aunt Wu did not doubt that he was there, and said without thinking: "Mr. Gu is at home. He went to his room to rest today when he said he was tired. Mrs. Gu said he would not let me disturb him. Why, do you have anything to do with him?"
Aunt Wu would never lie to her.
Gu Junliang's mental state was so bad yesterday, if he was simply tired, he should really take a good rest.
Gu Siqi also felt that she was too nervous, so she cut off the call.
"Are you relieved now?" Ling Mengyuan looked at her leisurely.
Gu Siqi recalled how badly he treated her just now, and said with a little embarrassment: "Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you."
Ling Mengyuan didn't take it to heart at all, hugged her shoulders, and said affectionately: "Okay, let's go in and eat."
When she entered the private room again, Gu Siqi saw Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan whispering together.
Ling Mengyuan naturally noticed it too, she walked over with the red wine dangling in her hand, and asked casually, "What are you talking about?"
When the two separated, Jin Minxuan looked a little flustered.
Lu Fanke had no expression on his face, and his voice was calm, "We've already eaten."
"So fast?" Ling Mengyuan was surprised.She went straight behind Lu Fanke, took a look, and said, "Well, the food is pretty clean. We've eaten enough, so let's have a glass of wine before leaving."
She said, and handed the red wine in her hand to Lu Fanke.
Lu Fanke glanced at the unnaturally red liquid inside, and didn't pick it up, "This seems to be Mrs. Gu's own cup."
"Really?" Ling Mengyuan went to check it seriously, and said indifferently: "I haven't drank it anyway, so I'll give you this glass, and I'll pour another one myself."
Lu Fanke looked at the bright smile on her face, but still didn't reach out.
As a result, the atmosphere became somewhat stalemate.
Seeing that the smile on Ling Mengyuan's face faded little by little, Jin Minxuan came out to smooth things over: "Mrs. Gu, give me this cup."
She reached out to pick it up, but Lu Fanke took her hand and said in a deep voice, "The doctor told you not to drink alcohol."
Ling Mengyuan's expression froze, she no longer cared about pretending, and said displeasedly, "What do you mean by the surname Lu?"
Lu Fanke glanced at the red wine in her hand with a vague look in her eyes, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "It's nothing else, I just don't want to bother Mrs. Gu, I can do it myself."
She leaned over and poured herself a glass of red wine, pouring more of her own glass on purpose.
Lu Fanke raised the cup in his hand, tilted it slightly, and took the initiative to clink glasses.
Just listen to "ding".
With a smile on the corner of Lu Fanke's mouth, he said, "Mrs. Gu, I should be the one to respect you."
Without waiting for Ling Mengyuan's response, she drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
After drinking, she poured the glass back.
A drop of red wine slowly flowed down the glass, and when it landed, Lu Fanke said again, "Okay, drink it clean." She turned her beautiful eyes, looked at Ling Mengyuan's forbearing expression, and raised her eyebrows, "Gu Well, it's your turn."
Ling Mengyuan didn't move, her eyes flickered quickly, and she said coldly, "I'll have to drive later, so I can't drink."
"Just leave the driving to Ms. Gu, she's such a good driver anyway, isn't she?" Lu Fanke didn't care.
When receiving Lu Fanke's gaze, Gu Siqi thought to herself: Is this woman deliberately mocking her?
As if being provoked, Gu Siqi suddenly stood up and said bluntly, "I'll drink it for my mother, is that okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she snatched the wine glass from Ling Mengyuan's hand without saying a word, and before everyone could react, she raised her head and drank it.
Ling Mengyuan's face turned pale, and she quickly went to grab the wine glass.
Gu Siqi might as well have him, choked on the red wine, not only did not spit it out, but swallowed a mouthful of wine "gulu".
Ling Mengyuan looked at the half of the red wine in the glass, then looked at the corners of her lips that were wet with red wine, beat her on the back hard, and said in a hateful voice: "Stinky girl, who made you act brave! You are very good at drinking Yes or no?"
After Gu Siqi was slapped like this, she lowered her head and coughed, her face flushed.
The meal ended with Ling Mengyuan cursing.
Gu Siqi was dragged into the car by her forward, and when she saw Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan coming out slowly, she hurriedly said, "Mom, anyway, let's take them for a ride?"
Ling Mengyuan said impatiently: "Take care of yourself first, why worry about other people's affairs!"
Gu Siqi didn't know why she got angry, so she simply shut up.
As soon as the car drove, her body was pulled forward, shaking her a little dizzy.
Gu Siqi had to remind: "Mom, do you know how to drive? Slow down!"
"Stop rambling, sit down." Ling Mengyuan looked ahead and stepped on the accelerator.
When Gu Siqi returned to her new home again, something was wrong all over her body.
There was a phantom in front of her eyes, she could only cling to Ling Mengyuan's shoulder, and said vaguely: "Mom, that glass of wine is poisonous, I feel as if I'm drunk."
Ling Mengyuan's expression changed suddenly, and she put her down on the sofa, "Don't talk nonsense, it's just a glass of wine, you have a good sleep later, everything will be fine when you wake up, just be obedient and don't move around, you know?"
"Mom, where are you going?" Gu Siqi wanted to grab her, but his hand was empty.
Ling Mengyuan looked at her from top to bottom, and warned with a sullen face: "Hurry up and sleep, I have to go to see your dad when I fall asleep."
"Oh."
Gu Siqi felt that her eyelids were heavy, and when she closed her eyes, she fell asleep in a daze.
While sleeping drowsily, Gu Siqi woke up from the cold.
When she struggled to lift her upper body, she felt a headache. She opened her mouth and called "Mom", but no one responded.
She groped to find the phone in the dark, and the moment the screen lit up, she was so stimulated that she closed her eyes.
When she opened it again, she felt really drunk, because she couldn't even read the words on the screen clearly.
She flicked her fingers on it, and finally dialed a number.
"Hey?"
The voice of the person on the other end of the phone is soft, which makes people feel comfortable.
Gu Siqi hugged her mobile phone, lay on her back on the sofa, closed her eyes, and complained, "Mom, did you run away again? Did you leave me alone again?"
The person at the other end was startled, and said, "Did you make a mistake?"
"Is it wrong?" Gu Siqi repeated her words foolishly, "Aren't you my mother? Then who are you?"
The voice of the person on the other end was suddenly low, and he paused every word, "I'm Lu Fanke."
"Lu Fanke?" Gu Siqi felt that the name was very familiar, but she couldn't remember it. She gave up struggling, "Oh, it seems that the name is really wrong, sorry."
After she finished speaking, she turned over, but forgot that she was on the sofa at the moment, and fell to the ground with a bang, and dropped her mobile phone.
Hearing a loud "pop", Gu Siqi panicked.
Recalling that someone once told her that this phone should not be dropped, she hurriedly crawled over, but because of her severe headache, she was forced to stop.
She couldn't reach her hands, so she lay on the ground and wailed: "Mom, where are you? What did you drink for me? I'm in so much pain and pain now!"
It was very cold on the ground, but Gu Siqi didn't have the strength to get up, her limbs gradually lost control, she beat the ground, and cried unscrupulously, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered in these years.
She didn't remember whether she scolded Ling Mengyuan or not. After crying tiredly, she fell asleep again in a daze.
When her body was picked up, Gu Siqi let out a groan.
Someone is slapping her face.
She felt the pain and opened her eyes in a daze.
The light in the room was on, but Gu Siqi couldn't see the face of the person in front of her clearly, so she had to reach out to touch and feel it.
The touch in her hand was extremely smooth, Gu Siqi smirked and said, "Mom, your skin is getting better and better, even tenderer than mine."
"Who is your mother?" The man knocked her hand off without politeness.
Gu Siqi suddenly realized that the voice was wrong, she leaned over to try to see clearly, but her eyes couldn't converge, she hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm drunk, why can't I see clearly?"
The man said, "How much did you drink?"
Gu Siqi didn't have time to care about who this person was, she stretched out a finger and said crisply: "One bite!"
The man frowned, as if he was thinking, but also seemed unhappy, and suddenly said: "Don't be silly, you are not drunk, you may be drugged."
"Drug? What drug?" Gu Siqi murmured.
The man felt that he couldn't communicate with her, ignored her, and said to himself, "It's strange, even if it's a drug, why the symptoms are the same as those of being drunk?"
Gu Siqi's head started to hurt again, she held her head, closed her eyes tightly, and muttered: "Sleepy."
"Sleep if you are tired."
"But I'm scared alone..." Gu Siqi opened her eyes slightly, acting like a child, "Mom, you don't know, I can only sleep peacefully when you sleep with me last night. But when I wake up, I will see When you disappear... how can you disappear again! You are always like this, you don't love me at all!"
She unconsciously reached out and hugged the man's neck, rubbing her head against her shoulder, smelling the pleasant fragrance of hair, but felt that the smell was different from last night.
At the moment of being embraced by her, Lu Fanke could no longer remain calm, and suddenly pushed her away.
Gu Siqi was not mentally prepared at all, and fell heavily on the sofa with her back.
"pain!"
"Where does it hurt?" Lu Fanke couldn't bear it, pulled her up, touched the sofa, but found nothing hard.
Gu Siqi held her head in both hands, "Headache."
Lu Fanke looked at her, puzzled.
What kind of drug is this?How could it be such a strange symptom?
Gu Siqi yelled like this just after taking a sip, wouldn't the situation be even worse if she finished that glass of red wine?
Thinking that this glass of wine was supposed to be handed to her, Lu Fanke felt lingering fear.
"it hurts."
Gu Siqi's voice pulled her back from her thoughts.
Seeing her painful expression, Lu Fanke secretly sighed: This mother is really ruthless, she ran away after making her daughter like this.
Thinking of this, she felt compassion and said softly, "Where's your mother?"
Gu Siqi was stopped by her question, with a blank expression, she didn't answer and asked instead: "Aren't you my mother?"
Lu Fanke's face turned cold, and he threatened her, "Do you believe I'll beat you if you do this again?"
After hearing this, Gu Siqi curled up in fear.
Lu Fanke didn't expect her to react like this, and she softened her heart, and slowed down her tone, "Go to sleep if you're sleepy."
Gu Junliang looked at her suspiciously, and asked without answering, "Why did you think of this?"
Gu Siqi didn't intend to hide anything, she thought for a while, and said, "I heard Director Lu say that Jin Minxuan has been discharged from the hospital, I didn't expect her to be sick for so long, today I suddenly remembered, I want to know more..."
Temporarily changed the name of Lu Fanke to be called Director Lu, but still felt that the name was not convenient.
While straightening his tie, Gu Junliang said casually: "Minxuan is already very weak, so I gave her a lot of money to let her rest for a while."
Gu Siqi's guess was right, she knew that Gu Junliang must have used money, Jin Minxuan supported An.
Still, she was a little curious, "Then she didn't say anything after receiving the money?"
"What else can I say after receiving the money?" Gu Junliang seemed to be laughing at her innocence.
Gu Siqi stopped talking and lowered her head thoughtfully.
Gu Junliang didn't notice her strangeness, paused, and said to himself: "Since Minxuan has been discharged from the hospital, let's take some time to ask her to have dinner together."
Gu Siqi suddenly came to her senses, "Okay, I'll ask Director Lu later to see when it's convenient for them."
Gu Junliang nodded slightly, suddenly thought of something, and said: "In the future, you can ask A Ke if you don't understand anything. Although she hasn't been in the company for a long time, she is careful and responsible. If you ask her for advice, you can learn a lot. thing."
Gu Siqi didn't express her opinion immediately, but she had been thinking about it for a long time, and said cautiously: "Dad, Director Lu once said that you are her relatives, so could it be that she is really your illegitimate daughter?"
Gu Junliang didn't expect her to say that at all, he was stunned, and laughed inexplicably: "What are you thinking about all day long? Where did I get an illegitimate daughter, I obviously only have your precious daughter! A Ke How could she be!"
Not a lover, not a daughter.Gu Siqi breathed a sigh of relief.
But when she asked in a relaxed tone how they met each other, Gu Junliang sighed and said vaguely: "It's a long story, and when the time is right, I'll explain it to you slowly."
Gu Siqi was faintly disappointed that he didn't get the information he wanted to inquire about the most.
Afraid that Gu Junliang would be worried, Gu Siqi didn't tell him about being robbed, thinking that there was nothing valuable inside, she didn't go to the police either.
The mobile phone Lu Fanke gave her was still slippery, and she wanted to buy a mobile phone case when she was free.
This phone is actually nothing special, but this is the second time that Lu Fanke gave it to her, and he specially reminded her.If it really breaks again, then she will really have no face to face Lu Fanke in the future...
The mobile phone looks like new, the card is new, and there is not a single number in it.
Today is the first day of work, Gu Junliang did not arrange substantive work for her, but asked Lu Fanke to take her by the hand.
Gu Siqi was looking down at the new mobile phone, and didn't even notice that someone came in.
The high-heeled shoes stepped on the thick carpet without a sound, and Lu Fanke walked slowly. She walked over and handed the company directory that had just been printed out to Gu Siqi's eyes, and said, "You may use this thing often in the future. If necessary, you'd better enter all the contact information of these people into the phone."
Gu Siqi raised her head and took the A4 paper over.
"Thank you."
Lu Fanke was still holding a bunch of documents in his hand, and handed them to her together, "These are the company's articles of association and product introduction, you should read it yourself first, this will help you get familiar with the company faster, and you can ask questions at any time if you don't understand. I."
Looking at the heavy documents in her hand, Gu Siqi felt that she might spend the whole afternoon on it.
Lu Fanke walked to the other side of the sofa, turned on the laptop and began to process emails, and the sound of "crackling" typing on the keyboard suddenly resounded throughout the office.
Gu Siqi looked up, and saw her slender fingers dancing quickly on the keyboard like playing a piano.
Lu Fanke, who was concentrating on his work, lost some softness on his face, giving people a feeling of rigor and inaccessibility.
This woman is really becoming more and more invisible.
Realizing that someone was watching her, Lu Fanke didn't look sideways, and said coldly: "Look at your profile, what am I doing?"
Gu Siqi's heart skipped a beat, she hurriedly lowered her head, opened the first page of the company's articles of association, and read it carefully.
Fortunately, each of them has their own affairs, and the two of them completely ignored the previous unhappiness when they were alone, so as not to make the atmosphere embarrassing.
When she saw the part of the company's products, the parameters above gave Gu Siqi a headache, she had to stop, and asked softly: "Excuse me, what do these data represent?"
Lu Fanke diverted his attention away from the computer screen, glanced at the paper she handed over, frowned, and said, "These things... It's hard for you to understand when I explain it to you now, and the next time I have a chance to touch the product I'll tell you again."
"All right……"
Gu Siqi had no choice but to skip this page and continue reading.
Before I knew it, time passed quickly.
Gu Junliang is said to have gone to the laboratory, but he hasn't come back yet.
Originally, Gu Siqi wanted to follow, but he refused.
After finally reading all the materials in her hand, Gu Siqi moved her sore neck, raised her head, and found that Lu Fanke was looking at her non-stop.
She was heartbroken.
Lu Fanke looked as usual, broke the silence and said, "Have you finished reading?"
"It's over." Gu Siqi replied honestly, like a well-behaved student.
Lu Fanke raised his eyebrows, and spoke like a teacher: "It's not enough to just read it once. If you are working with Mr. Gu, you have to memorize these materials by heart."
Gu Siqi shrugged and said confidently, "This is absolutely fine."
Anyway, it would be boring to go home, so she could take these materials home and study them carefully.
Lu Fanke closed the computer, and said solemnly, "I'm here for now, tomorrow is the weekend, Mr. Gu wants you to have a good rest."
"Wait." Gu Siqi stood up, "Are you free tomorrow night?"
"Us?" Lu Fanke didn't know why.
Gu Siqi was a little unnatural, so don't start, "It's you and Jin Minxuan... My dad heard the news that she was discharged from the hospital and wanted to invite you to dinner together."
……
In the evening, Gu Siqi personally drove Gu Junliang home.
Because he didn't have a good rest, Gu Junliang looked very tired and kept his eyes closed the whole time.
Gu Siqi couldn't help feeling distressed when she saw it. She wanted to drive faster, but she was worried that she might have an accident due to her poor driving skills.
Before going home, Gu Siqi specially called Aunt Wu and asked her to prepare a sumptuous dinner.
The moment the door was opened, the smell of food rushed over, Gu Siqi walked in holding Gu Junliang's hand, and said loudly, "Auntie, we are back!"
Aunt Wu greeted her with a flustered expression, "Madam has been waiting for you for a long time."
Mrs?
Gu Siqi looked up, and without warning, she saw Ling Mengyuan crossing her legs, sitting on the sofa admiring the manicure she had just done.
Hearing the movement at the door, Ling Mengyuan stood up in slow motion, with a bright smile on her face, and said softly: "My husband has worked hard, come and eat!"
Gu Junliang's exhausted face became even uglier. He stared straight at Ling Mengyuan, speaking poorly, "What do you want to do?"
Ling Mengyuan came over twisting Xiaoman's waist, grabbed Gu Junliang's tie naturally, and said bitterly: "Why do husbands and wives talk like this? My daughter is so sad to hear that."
Gu Junliang slammed her hand down, and said unceremoniously: "You and I have long lost the relationship between husband and wife, so stop acting hypocritically in front of me."
Ling Mengyuan raised her hand to let Gu Siqi see the back of her red hand clearly, her eyes were sad, and she sobbed, "Siqi, did you see that your father hit me! This is evidence of domestic violence!"
Gu Siqi was caught between the two of them in a dilemma, she turned her gaze to Gu Junliang, and begged, "Dad, can you treat Mom better?"
Gu Junliang snorted coldly, and said earnestly: "Siqi, your mother is crazy, don't be fooled by her."
Ling Mengyuan suddenly threw herself into Gu Siqi's arms, hugged her and cried, "Woooooh, your father is so cruel, he doesn't want me anymore. Siqi, I'm your mother, if you don't even want me, Then I won't live!"
"..." Gu Siqi was very helpless.
In order to prevent Ling Mengyuan and Gu Junliang from fighting, Gu Siqi took Ling Mengyuan back to the new residence without even taking care of the meal.
Ling Mengyuan came here for the first time. She looked around and said, "Your father bought a new house without even telling me about it. Such a nice house was actually given to that vixen. He is really generous."
The vixen in Ling Mengyuan's mouth naturally refers to Lu Fanke. I don't know why, these three words sound particularly harsh at this moment.
Gu Siqi held her hand and changed the subject abruptly: "Mom, the room hasn't been cleaned up for you yet, so you can sleep with me tonight."
Ling Mengyuan looked preoccupied, and said nonchalantly, "Okay, I'll sleep with you."
"Then mom, go take a bath quickly, and go to bed early after washing." Gu Siqi said happily.
Before Ling Mengyuan could bring her luggage, she was wearing Gu Siqi's pajamas, which was just the right size.
Due to proper maintenance, Ling Mengyuan looks like she is in her early 30s without makeup. People who don't know will definitely misunderstand that she is Gu Siqi's sister.
Only when she leaned in and looked carefully, could she find the subtle wrinkles at the corners of her eyes.
"Why are you in a daze." Ling Mengyuan poked Gu Siqi's forehead leaning against the bed.
Gu Siqi rubbed the place where she poked the pain, and said hesitantly, "Mom, why are you back all of a sudden?"
Ling Mengyuan sat on the edge of the bed, and said angrily: "From your tone, you seem to welcome me back, don't you?"
"How is it possible!" Gu Siqi leaned over and hugged her from behind, put her head on her shoulder, smelled the fragrance of her hair, and sighed softly, "I wish you would never leave me again."
When Ling Mengyuan heard this, her back stiffened, and the expression on her face also changed subtly.
Gu Siqi noticed something, she pulled away, looked at her side face without makeup, and said hesitantly: "Mom, you didn't come back again because you ran out of money, did you?"
Ling Mengyuan turned around abruptly, and reprimanded: "My daughter and my husband are here, can't I come back to see you? Why don't you say that money is not money, it hurts feelings."
Gu Siqi muttered: "You also know how to hurt feelings, so why didn't you leave me a penny last time?"
Ling Mengyuan reached out and pinched her cheek, and coaxed softly: "Credit cards are not everything, I can't pay cash for a taxi? Damn girl, look at you for being stingy."
Gu Siqi was still brooding about what happened last time, and retorted: "Who told you not to learn how to drive? If you could drive, why would you need to take a taxi?"
Ling Mengyuan said triumphantly, "Who says I can't drive?"
"You can drive?" Gu Siqi looked shocked.
But when she woke up the next day and found that Ling Mengyuan was no longer by her side, something even more astonishing happened.
The car keys she put on the table disappeared without a trace, and Ling Mengyuan actually left her early in the morning, and drove away her Mercedes-Benz in the underground garage without saying hello!
At first, Gu Siqi thought she was going out to have breakfast, but she waited and waited until [-]:[-] noon when Ling Mengyuan didn't come back, and finally realized something was wrong.
She took the new mobile phone and called Gu Junliang without delay.
After listening to her statement, Gu Junliang said calmly, "Don't worry, she can't run away, she is pestering me for money at home now."
The home he mentioned, of course, refers to the old house before.
Gu Siqi didn't have any money on her, and the car was taken away, so she couldn't move an inch.
She wanted to rush home as soon as possible to check the situation, but Gu Junliang said with a strong attitude: "Don't come over, as soon as you come, she will use you as a persimmon, and the situation will be even more difficult to deal with."
After these two incidents of being "robbed", Gu Siqi suddenly realized that Ling Mengyuan hadn't changed at all, she was still that selfish person, she didn't love her at all.
But in the end it is the flesh and blood connection, Gu Siqi was a little worried, "Dad, promise me, please don't hurt her."
Gu Junliang pondered for a while, and said, "Don't worry, I won't touch her, and I will definitely not let her catch me and use it to threaten me."
Gu Siqi couldn't help but sweat for him.
At the end, Gu Junliang comforted her and said, "I will take care of it and call you when the time comes."
Because of his words, Gu Siqi waited quietly all the time, and when it was getting dark, she finally had something to look forward to.
But unfortunately, the person on the other end of the phone was not Gu Junliang.
Ling Mengyuan's voice revealed a hint of joy after victory, and she said to her complacently: "Siqi, now that Mom is rich, how about Mom treating you to a big meal tonight?"
Could it be that Gu Junliang compromised?
Gu Siqi was startled secretly, and said impatiently: "Mom, what did you do to my father?"
Ling Mengyuan's voice was suddenly displeased: "Why did you talk to me? I'm not a tigress, what else can I do to him?"
Gu Siqi hesitated: "But Mom, Dad and I have an appointment for dinner tonight, do you think you can change the day?"
But Ling Mengyuan said: "Silly boy, we are all one family, what are you and me? What difference does it make if your father invites me?"
Gu Siqi was speechless.
……
The agreed time was seven o'clock in the evening, and Gu Siqi called Lu Fanke an hour in advance and told him the name of the restaurant.
On the phone, Lu Fanke's voice was a little distorted, and it sounded even more emotionless, lightly: "Understood, we will arrive on time."
Before hanging up the phone, Gu Siqi hurriedly called her to stop, but he hesitated for a long time and finally got up the courage to say: "Can you wait for me downstairs? I don't have any money with me, so I might have to sit with you for a while." The car passed by..."
After hearing this, Lu Fanke was stunned for a long time, and then responded lightly: "Understood, I will call you when the time comes."
Half an hour later, they met downstairs.
After not seeing each other for a few days, Gu Siqi obviously felt that Jin Minxuan had lost a lot of weight, and she couldn't bear to look directly at her.
Maybe it was because she had just recovered from a serious illness, but it might also be because she was soft-spoken when she took people's money. After seeing her, Jin Minxuan no longer looked as grim as before, and even took the initiative to say hello to her: "Miss Gu, hello."
Looking at her who was still pale, Gu Siqi always felt a little awkward, "Hello."
Jin Minxuan actually smiled at her, and said relaxedly: "In the future, we will all work in the same company, forget all the unpleasantness before, maybe we can still be friends."
Leaving aside whether they can be friends or not, Gu Siqi always feels that her words are very problematic.
She didn't hide her surprise this time, staring blankly at the impeccable smile on Jin Minxuan's face, she didn't know what to say for a moment.
She couldn't help thinking: Is this person really generous or a good actor?How could it be so nonchalant?
But before she could figure it out, Lu Fanke, who had been silent all this time, interrupted: "Let's talk in the car, don't make Mr. Gu wait too long."
A taxi just came by.
Gu Siqi consciously sat in front.
Since then, nothing has been said.
When they arrived at the appointed place, Ling Mengyuan had been waiting for a long time.
Seeing her sitting bored in the private room alone, Gu Siqi asked in confusion, "Mom, where is my dad?"
Ling Mengyuan was leisurely and calm, with a slightly lazy tone, "Your father is tired, I will let him rest at home, I came alone."
It sounds unbelievable.
Gu Junliang didn't come, why didn't you tell her in advance?
For some reason, Gu Siqi suddenly felt a little uneasy, and she hurriedly took out her mobile phone to call Gu Junliang.
Who would have thought that before she dialed the number, Ling Mengyuan snatched the phone away.
Ling Mengyuan gave her a hard look, ignored the presence of outsiders, and reprimanded her: "You girl is really disobeying me more and more, your father is sleeping at home now, why do you have to call and quarrel with him? ?”
"Sleep?" Gu Siqi felt even more curious.
It was still very early, how could Gu Junliang go to bed to rest?
Suddenly, Lu Fanke, who sensed that the atmosphere was not right, stepped in and said, "Since Mr. Gu didn't come today, let's go first."
"Stop." Ling Mengyuan had an arrogant attitude, squinting at her, "I haven't divorced you Mr. Gu yet, and I'm still Mrs. Gu, do you look down on me or are you afraid to have dinner with me?"
This aggressive trick worked, and Lu Fanke really stopped.
She had a smile on her face, her voice didn't fluctuate, and she said, "Since it's Mrs. Gu's invitation to dinner, it's our honor."
After finishing speaking, Lu Fanke sat down with Jin Minxuan who had an inexplicable face.
Ling Mengyuan glanced at Jin Minxuan, frowned and said, "Who is this?"
Although Jin Minxuan was at a loss, when she heard that the person in front of her was the boss's wife, she hurriedly introduced with a smile: "Hi Mrs. Gu, my name is Jin Minxuan, and I work as a Japanese translator in Yixin."
"So it's Miss Jin." Ling Mengyuan recalled the kidnapping incident that Gu Siqi told her before, and her expression became very intriguing.
Taking advantage of the interval between looking at the other party, she silently calculated the next countermeasure in her heart.
Ling Mengyuan thought that Lu Fanke came here alone today, but she didn't expect that there was an extra person surnamed Jin.
The more people there are, the harder things are.
But looking at Jin Minxuan's sick and out of shape, it should be easier to fool, right?
Who cares, she has a clear goal, except for Lu Fanke, everyone else is vulnerable in her eyes.
Jin Minxuan was uncomfortable being watched by Ling Mengyuan. She didn't know why the other party kept paying attention to her, so she could only apologize.
Ling Mengyuan realized that she was being impolite, she looked away slightly, and said in a casual way: "Miss Jin looks very bad, you must eat more later and make up for it."
Jin Minxuan didn't answer, but Lu Fanke who was sitting next to her answered for her: "That's for sure."
When the waiter brought in the menu, Lu Fanke took the menu and picked out the most expensive dishes.
Seeing this, Ling Mengyuan hurriedly reminded: "Is it enough to order so much?"
Lu Fanke looked at her in surprise, "I only ordered three dishes, does Mrs. Gu think my order is too expensive?"
The corner of Ling Mengyuan's mouth twitched, and she forced a smile, "How could that be?" She waved her hand, pretending not to notice, "You can order whatever you want."
"Then I won't be polite." Lu Fanke smiled meaningfully.
In fact, Lu Fanke saw that the other party was not kind. She originally wanted Ling Mengyuan to bleed, but after thinking about it, Gu Junliang might have given Ling Mengyuan the money for the treat, so she had to give up.
In the end, I ordered a total of six dishes and one soup, which was obviously too much to finish.
When Lu Fanke closed the menu, Ling Mengyuan said, "If you want to eat, why not order a bottle of red wine!"
When the red wine was served, Ling Mengyuan couldn't help asking someone to open it. She poured it for herself first, and said with a smile, "Come on, I respect you."
Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan looked at each other without moving.
"Why, don't give face?" Ling Mengyuan was upset.
Gu Siqi felt that Ling Mengyuan's behavior was really suspicious, so she quickly pressed her hand and said in a low voice: "Mom, the dishes are not ready yet, so there is no reason to drink first."
Ling Mengyuan also realized that she was a little impulsive, she rubbed her sore wrist, immediately changed her face, and said with a bright smile: "Then drink later after eating."
This meal was really weird.
When four strange women got together, there was actually nothing to talk about.
Four people, four thoughts, seem to be competing secretly, whoever loses his temper first will lose.
Everyone buried their heads in their own food, except for the occasional sound of chopsticks and spoons touching the dishes, the entire private room was eerily quiet.
Gu Siqi didn't know what to eat in this oppressive atmosphere. Halfway through the meal, she excused herself to go to the bathroom, secretly took away the phone when Ling Mengyuan wasn't paying attention, and hid outside to make a call.
It rang for a long time, but no one answered the phone.
Gu Siqi became more and more anxious, and when she was about to call again, suddenly someone behind her said leisurely, "What are you doing?"
Gu Siqi was taken aback, she turned around abruptly, and saw Ling Mengyuan standing behind her with a cold face.
Before Gu Siqi could think of a speech, she was attracted by the things in Ling Mengyuan's hands.
I saw Ling Mengyuan holding red wine in one hand and cell phone in the other, her eyes flickering on and off.
The screen was on, and Gu Siqi easily saw a missed call on it, which was exactly what she just called!
Gu Siqi couldn't help but widen her eyes, "Why is Dad's cell phone here?"
Ling Mengyuan glanced at the phone screen, "I'm also very surprised, probably because I was too hasty to pick up the wrong thing when I left."
Looking at the imperceptible smile hidden in her eyes, Gu Siqi always felt that something was wrong.
Recalling that Ling Mengyuan said before that Gu Junliang could not come because he was resting at home, she was secretly startled, and blurted out: "Mom, tell me the truth, what happened to my dad?"
Ling Mengyuan said calmly, "Your father is in good health, what else can he do?"
Gu Siqi just shook his head.
Ling Mengyuan frowned, "You are your mother, can I still lie to you?" She lowered her head, slid her finger on the screen, and said nonchalantly: "If you are worried, I will call Aunt Wu right now, and you Ask her."
The call was connected quickly, and Gu Siqi snatched it immediately, and said straight to the point: "Auntie, I'm Siqi, is my dad at home? Is he okay?"
Aunt Wu did not doubt that he was there, and said without thinking: "Mr. Gu is at home. He went to his room to rest today when he said he was tired. Mrs. Gu said he would not let me disturb him. Why, do you have anything to do with him?"
Aunt Wu would never lie to her.
Gu Junliang's mental state was so bad yesterday, if he was simply tired, he should really take a good rest.
Gu Siqi also felt that she was too nervous, so she cut off the call.
"Are you relieved now?" Ling Mengyuan looked at her leisurely.
Gu Siqi recalled how badly he treated her just now, and said with a little embarrassment: "Mom, I'm sorry, I shouldn't doubt you."
Ling Mengyuan didn't take it to heart at all, hugged her shoulders, and said affectionately: "Okay, let's go in and eat."
When she entered the private room again, Gu Siqi saw Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan whispering together.
Ling Mengyuan naturally noticed it too, she walked over with the red wine dangling in her hand, and asked casually, "What are you talking about?"
When the two separated, Jin Minxuan looked a little flustered.
Lu Fanke had no expression on his face, and his voice was calm, "We've already eaten."
"So fast?" Ling Mengyuan was surprised.She went straight behind Lu Fanke, took a look, and said, "Well, the food is pretty clean. We've eaten enough, so let's have a glass of wine before leaving."
She said, and handed the red wine in her hand to Lu Fanke.
Lu Fanke glanced at the unnaturally red liquid inside, and didn't pick it up, "This seems to be Mrs. Gu's own cup."
"Really?" Ling Mengyuan went to check it seriously, and said indifferently: "I haven't drank it anyway, so I'll give you this glass, and I'll pour another one myself."
Lu Fanke looked at the bright smile on her face, but still didn't reach out.
As a result, the atmosphere became somewhat stalemate.
Seeing that the smile on Ling Mengyuan's face faded little by little, Jin Minxuan came out to smooth things over: "Mrs. Gu, give me this cup."
She reached out to pick it up, but Lu Fanke took her hand and said in a deep voice, "The doctor told you not to drink alcohol."
Ling Mengyuan's expression froze, she no longer cared about pretending, and said displeasedly, "What do you mean by the surname Lu?"
Lu Fanke glanced at the red wine in her hand with a vague look in her eyes, and said neither humble nor overbearing: "It's nothing else, I just don't want to bother Mrs. Gu, I can do it myself."
She leaned over and poured herself a glass of red wine, pouring more of her own glass on purpose.
Lu Fanke raised the cup in his hand, tilted it slightly, and took the initiative to clink glasses.
Just listen to "ding".
With a smile on the corner of Lu Fanke's mouth, he said, "Mrs. Gu, I should be the one to respect you."
Without waiting for Ling Mengyuan's response, she drank the red wine in the glass in one gulp.
After drinking, she poured the glass back.
A drop of red wine slowly flowed down the glass, and when it landed, Lu Fanke said again, "Okay, drink it clean." She turned her beautiful eyes, looked at Ling Mengyuan's forbearing expression, and raised her eyebrows, "Gu Well, it's your turn."
Ling Mengyuan didn't move, her eyes flickered quickly, and she said coldly, "I'll have to drive later, so I can't drink."
"Just leave the driving to Ms. Gu, she's such a good driver anyway, isn't she?" Lu Fanke didn't care.
When receiving Lu Fanke's gaze, Gu Siqi thought to herself: Is this woman deliberately mocking her?
As if being provoked, Gu Siqi suddenly stood up and said bluntly, "I'll drink it for my mother, is that okay?"
As soon as she finished speaking, she snatched the wine glass from Ling Mengyuan's hand without saying a word, and before everyone could react, she raised her head and drank it.
Ling Mengyuan's face turned pale, and she quickly went to grab the wine glass.
Gu Siqi might as well have him, choked on the red wine, not only did not spit it out, but swallowed a mouthful of wine "gulu".
Ling Mengyuan looked at the half of the red wine in the glass, then looked at the corners of her lips that were wet with red wine, beat her on the back hard, and said in a hateful voice: "Stinky girl, who made you act brave! You are very good at drinking Yes or no?"
After Gu Siqi was slapped like this, she lowered her head and coughed, her face flushed.
The meal ended with Ling Mengyuan cursing.
Gu Siqi was dragged into the car by her forward, and when she saw Lu Fanke and Jin Minxuan coming out slowly, she hurriedly said, "Mom, anyway, let's take them for a ride?"
Ling Mengyuan said impatiently: "Take care of yourself first, why worry about other people's affairs!"
Gu Siqi didn't know why she got angry, so she simply shut up.
As soon as the car drove, her body was pulled forward, shaking her a little dizzy.
Gu Siqi had to remind: "Mom, do you know how to drive? Slow down!"
"Stop rambling, sit down." Ling Mengyuan looked ahead and stepped on the accelerator.
When Gu Siqi returned to her new home again, something was wrong all over her body.
There was a phantom in front of her eyes, she could only cling to Ling Mengyuan's shoulder, and said vaguely: "Mom, that glass of wine is poisonous, I feel as if I'm drunk."
Ling Mengyuan's expression changed suddenly, and she put her down on the sofa, "Don't talk nonsense, it's just a glass of wine, you have a good sleep later, everything will be fine when you wake up, just be obedient and don't move around, you know?"
"Mom, where are you going?" Gu Siqi wanted to grab her, but his hand was empty.
Ling Mengyuan looked at her from top to bottom, and warned with a sullen face: "Hurry up and sleep, I have to go to see your dad when I fall asleep."
"Oh."
Gu Siqi felt that her eyelids were heavy, and when she closed her eyes, she fell asleep in a daze.
While sleeping drowsily, Gu Siqi woke up from the cold.
When she struggled to lift her upper body, she felt a headache. She opened her mouth and called "Mom", but no one responded.
She groped to find the phone in the dark, and the moment the screen lit up, she was so stimulated that she closed her eyes.
When she opened it again, she felt really drunk, because she couldn't even read the words on the screen clearly.
She flicked her fingers on it, and finally dialed a number.
"Hey?"
The voice of the person on the other end of the phone is soft, which makes people feel comfortable.
Gu Siqi hugged her mobile phone, lay on her back on the sofa, closed her eyes, and complained, "Mom, did you run away again? Did you leave me alone again?"
The person at the other end was startled, and said, "Did you make a mistake?"
"Is it wrong?" Gu Siqi repeated her words foolishly, "Aren't you my mother? Then who are you?"
The voice of the person on the other end was suddenly low, and he paused every word, "I'm Lu Fanke."
"Lu Fanke?" Gu Siqi felt that the name was very familiar, but she couldn't remember it. She gave up struggling, "Oh, it seems that the name is really wrong, sorry."
After she finished speaking, she turned over, but forgot that she was on the sofa at the moment, and fell to the ground with a bang, and dropped her mobile phone.
Hearing a loud "pop", Gu Siqi panicked.
Recalling that someone once told her that this phone should not be dropped, she hurriedly crawled over, but because of her severe headache, she was forced to stop.
She couldn't reach her hands, so she lay on the ground and wailed: "Mom, where are you? What did you drink for me? I'm in so much pain and pain now!"
It was very cold on the ground, but Gu Siqi didn't have the strength to get up, her limbs gradually lost control, she beat the ground, and cried unscrupulously, as if she wanted to vent all the grievances she had suffered in these years.
She didn't remember whether she scolded Ling Mengyuan or not. After crying tiredly, she fell asleep again in a daze.
When her body was picked up, Gu Siqi let out a groan.
Someone is slapping her face.
She felt the pain and opened her eyes in a daze.
The light in the room was on, but Gu Siqi couldn't see the face of the person in front of her clearly, so she had to reach out to touch and feel it.
The touch in her hand was extremely smooth, Gu Siqi smirked and said, "Mom, your skin is getting better and better, even tenderer than mine."
"Who is your mother?" The man knocked her hand off without politeness.
Gu Siqi suddenly realized that the voice was wrong, she leaned over to try to see clearly, but her eyes couldn't converge, she hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, I'm drunk, why can't I see clearly?"
The man said, "How much did you drink?"
Gu Siqi didn't have time to care about who this person was, she stretched out a finger and said crisply: "One bite!"
The man frowned, as if he was thinking, but also seemed unhappy, and suddenly said: "Don't be silly, you are not drunk, you may be drugged."
"Drug? What drug?" Gu Siqi murmured.
The man felt that he couldn't communicate with her, ignored her, and said to himself, "It's strange, even if it's a drug, why the symptoms are the same as those of being drunk?"
Gu Siqi's head started to hurt again, she held her head, closed her eyes tightly, and muttered: "Sleepy."
"Sleep if you are tired."
"But I'm scared alone..." Gu Siqi opened her eyes slightly, acting like a child, "Mom, you don't know, I can only sleep peacefully when you sleep with me last night. But when I wake up, I will see When you disappear... how can you disappear again! You are always like this, you don't love me at all!"
She unconsciously reached out and hugged the man's neck, rubbing her head against her shoulder, smelling the pleasant fragrance of hair, but felt that the smell was different from last night.
At the moment of being embraced by her, Lu Fanke could no longer remain calm, and suddenly pushed her away.
Gu Siqi was not mentally prepared at all, and fell heavily on the sofa with her back.
"pain!"
"Where does it hurt?" Lu Fanke couldn't bear it, pulled her up, touched the sofa, but found nothing hard.
Gu Siqi held her head in both hands, "Headache."
Lu Fanke looked at her, puzzled.
What kind of drug is this?How could it be such a strange symptom?
Gu Siqi yelled like this just after taking a sip, wouldn't the situation be even worse if she finished that glass of red wine?
Thinking that this glass of wine was supposed to be handed to her, Lu Fanke felt lingering fear.
"it hurts."
Gu Siqi's voice pulled her back from her thoughts.
Seeing her painful expression, Lu Fanke secretly sighed: This mother is really ruthless, she ran away after making her daughter like this.
Thinking of this, she felt compassion and said softly, "Where's your mother?"
Gu Siqi was stopped by her question, with a blank expression, she didn't answer and asked instead: "Aren't you my mother?"
Lu Fanke's face turned cold, and he threatened her, "Do you believe I'll beat you if you do this again?"
After hearing this, Gu Siqi curled up in fear.
Lu Fanke didn't expect her to react like this, and she softened her heart, and slowed down her tone, "Go to sleep if you're sleepy."
