Rooted

Bai Zhen smiled apologetically, and raised the things in her hands, "I didn't have time to prepare a gift, so I just bought some supplements on the way here, I hope you like it."

"Hey! It's okay! Xiao Qi told us!"

Ms. He Sheng rejected it twice, but finally accepted it, and called Bai Zhen to sit down, "Do you have any favorite dishes? Auntie will cook for you."

"I can do it." Bai Zhen followed her movements and sat down.

Fu Yin asked Bai Zhen some questions about whether he was busy with work or not.Xiang Qi and Fu Wensheng said that he happened to meet Bai Zhen just now, and when Bai Zhen said that he was alone tonight, they brought him to dinner.

Fu Wensheng nodded, apparently not minding.

Gan Hezhi was very concerned.

He is not a person who can hide his thoughts, so he looks at Bai Zhen with obviously unfriendly eyes, like a puppy who is ready to bark when he sees a stranger.Fortunately, no one paid any attention to him, so he could only be unhappy by himself.

But later, Bai Zhen always started talking to Fu Wensheng, and Fu Wensheng replied patiently. Everyone at the table got along happily except him. He was like a sealed volcano, accumulating more and more anger.

On the way, Bai Zhen took the initiative to talk to Gan Hezhi once, but Gan Hezhi didn't want to talk about it, and deliberately pretended not to hear it. As soon as he raised his head, he met Fu Yin's stern reprimanding gaze. said a word.

Although it was a perfunctory answer, Gan Hezhi froze after answering this sentence, as if caught in a kind of self-struggle, even disgust.

In normal times, it doesn't take long to eat a meal.But today may be because the Chinese New Year is approaching, or it may be because there are guests present.In short, there is endless chatting and eating.

No one left the table early, Gan Hezhi could only continue to sit no matter how reluctant he was, and listened to Bai Zhen talking about his experience abroad, which made the two elders smile, and said that he liked it here very much and felt that he was very close to everyone.

"Who hits off with you." Gan Hezhi muttered to himself.

The meal didn't end until after seven o'clock.

Ms. He Sheng told Xiang Qi to go home straight away, and Fu Wensheng sent Bai Zhen off.Xiang Qi hooked the key ring with his left hand, put his right hand on Fu Wensheng's shoulder, and said to Fu Wensheng with a smile, "That's hard work."

While saying goodbye to the two elders, Bai Zhen followed Fu Wensheng out.When Gan Hezhi heard Fu Yin calling him, he had a premonition that he was about to be scolded, so he quickly ran after Bai Zhen.

Bai Zhen was not familiar with this place, and when she went out, she was only talking and didn't care about her feet, she tripped over the threshold, her body wobbled and she was about to fall.

Gan Hezhi was the closest to him at that time, but Gan Hezhi didn't reach out to pull him.Maybe he was frightened by the sudden appearance and didn't react, and Gan Hezhi himself didn't know it very well.

On the contrary, Fu Wensheng, who was walking in front of Bai Zhen, heard the movement, stopped for a while, and just turned around to see the scene of Bai Zhen falling, and quickly followed a step forward, barely catching the person.

Xiang Qi in the front, Fu Yin and Ms. He Sheng in the back heard the movement, and they all came over and asked, "Are you all right?"

Bai Zhen stood up again with Fu Wensheng's strength, her face was a little red, and she shook her head after a few seconds, "I'm fine. Brother Fu... caught me..."

Gan Hezhi was pushed aside and recovered, a little uncomfortable.

He thought in hindsight, he was not as tall as Bai Zhen, and he couldn't hold Bai Zhen from behind.

Besides, Bai Zhen got a free hug from Fu Wensheng, so she might be so happy now.

Thinking of this, Gan Hezhi couldn't help curling his lips.

The next second, Fu Wensheng helped Bai Zhen to stand up, then let go of his hand, and looked up at Gan Hezhi, which meant nothing.

Gan Hezhi suddenly had an illusion, as if it wasn't that he didn't pull someone, but that this person was simply pushed by him.

He froze for a moment, and when he looked again, Fu Wensheng had already walked forward, as if he hadn't even looked at him.

Gan Hezhi followed in a daze.

When they got downstairs, Bai Zhen took Fu Wensheng's co-pilot first.Because Gan Hezhi was distracted, he watched Bai Zhen sit on it, and he went to pull the door open again.The two stared at each other for a while, then Gan Hezhi sat in the back seat unwillingly.

Gan Hezhi sits behind the driver's seat. Although this position is not as good as the front row, he can see the small movements of the co-pilot's seat at any time.

Bai Zhen, on the other hand, saw Ganhe get on the car and asked unexpectedly, "Is Xiaogan also with you?"

Gan Hezhi heard that he wanted to be alone with Fu Wensheng, so he was immediately proud, and his voice was a little higher, "Of course! We will go home together after seeing you off!" He clearly distinguished the host and guest.

Bai Zhen didn't look very happy, she opened her mouth, but didn't say anything.

After sending Bai Zhen home, Bai Zhen asked them if they wanted to go up for a cup of tea while unfastening their seat belts.Before Gan Hezhi could say anything, Fu Wensheng said no, it was getting late.

Bai Zhen didn't get out of the car immediately after being rejected, but glanced hintingly at Gan Hezhi in the back seat.Gan Hezhi received the other party's signal, and his buttocks sat firmly.

The attempt to be alone failed, and Bai Zhen looked very regretful. After watching Fu Wensheng for a while, he finally pushed open the car door and said, "Thank you for sending me back. See you next year."

After Bai Zhen left, Gan Hezhi asked Fu Wensheng to wait before leaving.

He got out of the car, walked half a circle around the car, opened the passenger door, patted the seat symbolically, and then sat in by himself, saying, "Okay, let's go!"

Fu Wensheng watched from beginning to end without expressing any opinion.After the car drove out of the community, he asked Gan Hezhi, "Why don't you like Bai Zhen?"

Gan Hezhi's relaxed body tightened obviously, "Do you like him?"

Fu Wensheng didn't answer right away, but said after a few seconds, "No."

After Gan Hezhi heard this answer, he relaxed again, showing a satisfied smile, so happy that people unconsciously think of Bu Dai Monk.

With such an expression, even if he said the most unreasonable words, there was a bit of softness that people wouldn't take seriously, "He's uneasy and kind!"

With Fu Wensheng's usual style, he won't ask any more questions here.But today, somehow, he also asked vaguely, "Why?"

Gan Hezhi looked over and didn't answer directly, but said, "Since you don't like him, you should stay away from him." He thought for a while, and then added deliberately, "You can't always let him come to your office .” Gan Hezhi was convinced, “It’s dangerous!”

Fu Wensheng didn't care about Ganhe's chaos and described it as "dangerous". He just said, "There are still many things to be prepared in the branch office."

Gan Hezhi froze for a moment, unable to understand why Fu Wensheng suddenly mentioned the branch office.He knew about the branch office, Ji Tian had told him and Wei Xue about it.

Gan Hezhi is not usually a very smart person, but at this moment his mind suddenly became active, and he asked uncertainly, "Is he...going to the branch...?"

"Hmm..." Fu Wensheng responded, and then suddenly frowned, "The list was recommended by Ji Tian, ​​didn't you know?" With an expression of suspicion that Gan Hezhi was not doing something serious at work.

Gan Hezhi hastily explained to himself, "I know! It's just that Sister Xue and I are doing case statistics... The analysis has been done for many days..."

He was explaining and explaining, and suddenly started to giggle, "Hey... the branch... the branch office is good..."

Fu Wensheng seemed to be doing it on purpose, "It's in the neighboring city, not far away."

"Oh." Gan Hezhi's joy really took a little away, and soon he didn't care about it. He patted and touched the handrail for nothing, "It doesn't matter if the neighboring city is not here..."

Years later, because Xiang Qi came back to the institute, Gan Hezhi's concern about Bai Zhen always going in and out of Fu Wensheng's office dropped a little bit.

But he still applied with Ji Tian. If you have to run errands, please let him do it.

He didn't dare to make it too obvious, but he just wanted to go to Fu Wensheng's office in a fair manner without being scolded.

Bai Zhen bought gifts for Fu Wensheng every three days.I don't know if it was because he was worried that Fu Wensheng wouldn't want it, and would buy it for other colleagues every time, making it difficult for him to hear Wei Xue praise Bai Zhen twice in three days.

Gan Hezhi couldn't help showing contempt for Bai Zhen's heresy every time, and turned around and gave up his share to Wei Xue, resolutely refusing to accept a single stitch from a rival in love.

Bai Zhen would give in to Gan Hezhi at the beginning, but gradually her nature was exposed and she was no longer humble. Sometimes when she saw Gan Hezhi before entering Fu Wensheng's office, she would deliberately stop at the door to pat her clothes, as if she was just driving Like a peacock on the screen, he proudly glanced at Ganhe, as if he had spotted Qianhe and couldn't stop him.

Gan Hezhi really had nothing to do with him, so he could only blow pillow wind to Fu Wensheng crazily after returning home at night, so that Fu Wensheng started to lock the doors of his study and bedroom.

The only time that the two of them who fought tit for tat from morning till night was when Fu Wensheng was spotted by a client.

The client came to see the lawyer to ask a question. When he saw Fu Wensheng, he went up to their floor, grabbed Gan Hezhi who happened to be passing by, asked if he could change lawyers, and asked Fu Wensheng if he had a date.

At that time, Bai Zhen happened to be on the side.

They glanced at each other, then nodded vigorously in tacit agreement.

Wearing a suit, Bai Zhen looked very elite and professional, and answered the client's questions officially, "Hello, Ms. Yao. I'm very sorry, but Attorney Fu already has a partner."

Gan Hezhi wins people's trust by his friendly appearance, "they have a very good relationship."

Bai Zhen glanced at Ganhe, "His partner is about the same height as me."

Not to be outdone, Gan Hezhi said, "It looks more like me."

They said one by one, from unanimity to comparison with each other, and in the end they only cared about competing with each other, and didn't even pay attention to when the customer left.One of them snorted and parted without looking back.

Bai Zhen left at the end of March.

The other resident lawyers have already gone to the branch office, and Bai Zhen stayed until the end
