Chapter 5

In order to suppress the anger and the shame of treating the "enemy" as a benefactor, Gu Jianan called the waiter and re-ordered a few expensive dishes that he was embarrassed to order just now, biting very hard when eating.

However, the person on the opposite side kept looking at him with a smile, with his left hand resting on his chin, his right hand holding the chopsticks seemed to be holding a cigarette, and his posture was leisurely and calm: "Have you taken a fancy to our Boss Meng?"

Gu Jianan was swallowing the fat cow in his mouth. Hearing this, he was not calm. He was choked by the pepper to his nose and throat. He coughed instantly and his face was red with tears.

Xiao Jue was frightened by his miserable appearance, so he hurried over to give him a pat on the back, and helped him to clean up in the bathroom.Halfway along the way, I couldn't think of a cheap sentence: "I helped you out when you were in an embarrassment that day, so thank you."

Then, Gu Jianan, who was in tears, thanked Xiao Jue sincerely with his fists, and got his promise to report information about Meng Xincheng to Gu Jianan at any time. Gu Jianan expressed his satisfaction, and his throat was not so uncomfortable. The good dishes have not solved any problems.

The next morning, Gu Jianan received a message from Xiao Jue on the subway saying that Mr. Meng would come to the company today. He felt that a good person would be rewarded with good rewards, even though he didn't choose to be a good person back then.

When they arrived at the parking lot, they didn't see Meng Xincheng's car, so Gu Jianan stood there and waited.After a while, I realized that I looked a little silly in the rushing crowd, so I wandered around in circles, but of course it didn't get any better.Fortunately, when he made the third lap, he saw Meng Xincheng's car, which was the black SUV from before.Probably after having a meal together, she subconsciously felt that the two of them were getting closer, so Gu Jianan walked over without coercion.The window of the driver's cab was open, and Meng Xincheng's side face and graceful neck line could be seen from the rearview mirror. He seemed to be talking.Gu Jianan thought that he was probably on the phone, so he slowed down a bit, and stood behind the side of the car, ready to wait for him to finish the call before saying hello.But in the next second, he heard another voice, which sounded familiar.

The two seemed to be arguing about something, but it was Lu Chengye who was responsible for the emotional agitation, and Meng Xincheng was still calm, without much warmth in his voice.Gu Jianan couldn't quite hear what Meng Xincheng said, but Lu Chengye's low growls filled his ears, making him instantly put Lu Chengye in the position of a rival in love.

After the dispute, the two remained silent. Gu Jianan was a little embarrassed standing beside the car, but didn't want to leave.After a while, Lu Chengye spoke again: "Can you cherish our efforts and protect yourself!"

Meng Xincheng's voice was still calm and unwavering: "I am causing you trouble."

Lu Chengye seemed very frustrated: "I'm angry just seeing you like this! But I can't fucking beat you!" He sighed and stretched out his hand to grab the doorknob, "I didn't save you for you to fall in love, your The time does not belong to you, give me two-thirds of the time to do business, and the rest of the time you can do whatever you want, although I don’t want you to do it.” After speaking, he pushed the door and got out of the car, and turned his head to see Gu Jianan’s overhead.Fu leaned back on the car window and smiled and said to Meng Xincheng: "It's great that you are with me. We are 100% in love with each other. I see you struggling so much emotionally, so I really want to save you."

"Don't bother."

Seeing his attitude of rejecting others thousands of miles away, Lu Chengye's heart became angry. He lowered his voice and said, "I especially hope that you can fail once, but you can achieve your wish again and again. It really makes people angry." Standing up and taking two steps back, "I was very happy last night, I feel that the technology has improved again, thank you and your body." The voice was not too loud, just enough for the parties to hear.

Meng Xincheng in the car was expressionless and helpless, while Gu Jianan at the back of the car was stunned in shock.After getting off the car, Meng Xincheng was caught off guard and saw Gu Jianan flustered a little. He instantly understood the intention of Lu Chengye's nonsense, but he was not bothered.

The three of them stood in three places in the car, and the scene was a bit awkward, but Gu Jianan felt that he was the only one who was embarrassed, while the other two parties, one still stood as cold as ice, and the other greeted him calmly.

"morning."

"Ah...morning." Gu Jianan shook his head. Lu Chengye's words should not be what he thought, but his mind was uncontrollably thinking in that direction, thinking of Meng Xincheng's expressionless face lying beside him. Xia Chenghuan... his whole body was not feeling well, he felt hot all of a sudden, and he took it for granted that his face was as red as a tomato.But the tomato didn't seem to be ripe enough, Gu Jianan felt a little sour taste, and his heart began to sink.

"Are you uncomfortable?" Meng Xincheng asked.

"Ah? No." Gu Jianan came back to his senses, unable to look directly at Meng Xincheng's face, and glanced at Lu Chengye erratically, thinking about the relationship between the two of them.

He got the answer from Meng Xincheng in the next second, and he generously introduced to Gu Jianan: "This is Lu Chengye, my partner."

Lu Chengye snorted, and didn't explain his birthdate, but just said: "Be careful." After speaking, he waved his hand and walked away.

At this moment, Gu Jianan basically concluded that Meng Xincheng had a problem eating at his own home, and was a little nervous: "You didn't go to the company yesterday, did you get sick? Sure enough, the dishes I cooked were too greasy."

"No." Meng Xincheng immediately denied it, and motioned Gu Jianan to go into the building, "It's a little problem, but it's not a big problem."

"Well, the mousse you made is delicious, even better than the ones in the cake shop." Gu Jianan took out a thermos cup from his backpack and handed it to Meng Xincheng. It's dandelion tea, which nourishes the stomach and protects the liver."

Seeing that he hesitated for a while before taking it, Gu Jianan felt that she seemed a little reckless. "Uh, this is what my mother told me. It works. If you feel good after drinking it, I'll make it for you every day."

"Thank you."

"Or I can bring you some dandelions. My friend's mother picked them back when she was traveling in Siguniang Mountain. They are wild."

"Ok."

"It will be a little bit bitter, but the aftertaste is a bit sweet, not too bad."

"I can drink it."

But having said so much, he didn't seem to be ready to take a bite right away, which made Gu Jianan a little disappointed.And he found that Meng Xincheng seemed to be talking to him just out of politeness.

"You like to eat cakes, I make them for you every day."

After being dazed for a while, Gu Jianan couldn't restrain the corners of his mouth from rising, and when he realized it, he became more courageous, and asked, "Why?"

But Meng Xincheng didn't give him an answer, and walked straight to their company's special elevator, his back was stiff, and the roots of his ears were red.It made Gu Jianan laugh out loud.

Arriving at the company with a happy face, I started to giggle when I sat down.Su Lu turned her head and glanced at him before continuing to organize the desk.Gu Jianan couldn't hold back and said to her: "You don't care about me anymore."

"Isn't it just hooked up initially? What's so strange about it?"

"I've been solo for 25 years, and I finally got out of the singles. You don't think it's unusual?"

Su Lu pursed her lips: "Oh, so how did you hook up?"

"Don't tell you!"

"I will strangle you to death!"

"Heroic man, spare your life! Let the little one commit suicide by taking medicine."

Su Lu slapped him on the shoulder: "You talk nonsense early in the morning, take your medicine well."

Gu Jianan underwent a heart transplant because of sudden dilated myocarditis heart failure.After the operation, anti-rejection drugs need to be taken for a long time, and there will be some adverse reactions, and she often feels tired. Fortunately, Gu Jianan is optimistic by nature and has not suffered from insomnia or depression.

After swallowing the medicine and drinking water, Gu Jianan checked the message sent by Xiao Jue: Our company group is in full swing today, and the focus of the discussion is—Mr. Meng actually drank water!This morning, he entered the office holding a thermos cup full of girlish hearts in both hands, which instantly caused an uproar of gossip.Several unmarried young women said with tears that they might have broken up in love.

Gu Jianan responded with a backhand: My thermos is so girlish!

Xiao Jue immediately replied: Boss, please take care of me in the future.

This sentence made Gu Jianan laugh, suddenly a little shy, and quickly picked up the glass to drink water to avoid grinning too much.Then it suddenly occurred to him that he still hadn't got Meng Xincheng's phone number.He went to buy a new mobile phone yesterday just to get the contact information to communicate his feelings.After all, most of the time, feelings come out of chatting, otherwise, if you deliberately create encounters every day, you won't be able to say a few words.

When the message sounded, Gu Jianan clicked on it and saw that it was an unfamiliar number. The content of the message was simple and clear: I am Meng Xincheng.

Gu Jianan added it to the address book without hesitation, and added WeChat.Do whatever you want, I'm afraid this fate cannot escape.

WeChat was quickly added, and Gu Jianan was still thinking about the topic, and Meng Xincheng sent a message: What cake do you want to eat today?

After typing for a while, I wanted to be polite, but felt that no matter how I worded it, it was a bit wrong, so I simply replied directly: Mango Melaleuca.

Meng Xincheng replied OK, and sent another message after 2 minutes: Your diet is best to eat less salt and less oil, and don't eat too much.

After replying a good word in a daze, Gu Jianan propped his chin and thought, the two of them seem to be walking on the road of old husband and wife for no reason, and this person doesn't pursue me?After thinking about it, he was the one who was pursuing Meng Xincheng, and now he was being led by the nose by the object of his pursuit. This is not acceptable, and he must regain the initiative.

As he said that, he contacted a flower art studio on WeChat, ordered a bouquet named Simu, and asked the clerk to deliver it to Meng Xincheng's office.Imagining his reaction when he received the flowers, he had fun all morning.

After confirming with the boss of the studio that the order had been delivered, there was no response from Meng Xincheng. Even Xiao Jue came over to the proprietress in person during lunch time to make jokes with the proprietress, but the boss had no response.Gu Jianan, who was complacent at first, started to feel anxious in the afternoon, and when he was about to get off work and hadn't responded yet, he felt that he must have done something wrong.

Unhappily packing up his things and leaving get off work, as soon as he left the office, he saw Meng Xincheng walking quickly, holding a small cake box in his right hand and a bouquet of flowers in his left hand, which seemed to have been tied in a hurry, but did not appear to be Casual, but it is quite similar to the bride's bouquet.

Gu Jianan stood still, thinking that if Meng Xincheng didn't contact him, he must have gone home to make cakes for him.He watched Meng Xincheng come to the front, his voice was the same as before, but the words he said made people feel like a spring breeze, he said: "I should send the flowers."
