"Auntie, I bought some food from outside. I'm afraid you won't like it, so it's just home-cooked food. I hope you don't mind."
Chen Qian came back from outside dusty.
Carrying large and small bags of rice in her hands, the smile on Li Yunhong's face never stopped taking care of her.
"Hey, good, good, good, what a good girl."
"It's okay, this is what I should do." Chen Qian wiped the sweat from her head, her harmless smile pleased Li Yunhong very much.
"Don't worry, I told your mother just now that if I have to give you an explanation, that woman Gu Yan will never enter the door of our Mo family."
Chen Qian was overjoyed, but her face showed a hard-to-get shyness: "Oh, Auntie, don't force this kind of thing, Yichen will be disgusted by it."
"How could it be possible? If anyone dares to have an opinion on someone I, Li Yunhong, have identified, I will do a good job of ideological work for Yichen."
It seems that Li Yunhong also dislikes Gu Yan from the bottom of her heart. In this case, it's the best thing.
Chen Qian calmly filled a bowl of soup for Li Yunhong and handed it to her.
In front of this woman, I have done my best to show the image of a good daughter-in-law. It seems that the card in my hand is indeed a trump card. Fortunately, I have the foresight.
Inside the studio.
Gu Yan buried her head in drawing the design.
"Sister Gu Yan, it's already noon, why don't you go have lunch?" Yuan Xi said as she took off her work badge.
"Well, I need this design drawing urgently, so I have no choice but to work overtime."
The woman didn't even have time to raise her head as it rustled on the paper.
"Huh? This design drawing is not Mr. Mo's client..."
Gu Yan glanced at her, and Yuan Xi understood immediately and quickly kept silent without saying another word.
"Then I'll go out to eat first, and you can get busy first."
Yuan Xi quickly ran away.
Only Gu Yan's busy figure could be seen in the studio.
At this moment, the familiar cell phone ringtone rang.
Gu Yan searched for the cell phone that had been ringing for a long time among the discarded designs, and Manla's name lit up on the screen.
With a slight smile, he answered the phone.
"Hello? Boss, what are you busy with these days? You don't have time to talk to me."
As Gu Yan said this, she put her phone between her shoulder and her ear so that she could free her hands to do other things.
"I... cough cough cough."
The voice from the other end of the phone coughed violently before he could finish a complete sentence.
"What’s wrong with you?"
Manla's voice was painfully hoarse, and her thick nasal voice made every word she spoke sound vague.
Gu Yan stopped what she was doing.
"I was with a client yesterday and I drank until my stomach bleeds. Now I'm staying in the hospital. Are you free now? Help me go home and get some changes of clothes."
Manla had never been so weak. Gu Yan frowned and started to put on her coat while complaining.
"Why don't you know how to take good care of yourself? I told you to drink less. Are customers so important? I'm going to your house now."
Gu Yan was worried all the way and even drove faster than usual.
I took clothes from Manla's house and brought some millet porridge along the way. I'm afraid she won't be able to eat anything now.
After a while, Gu Yan arrived at the hospital. According to the address Manla sent her, she hurried to the address.
Before he even got close to her, he saw her lying on the hospital bed in a miserable state.
I have never seen her look like this before. No matter how hard she worked, she would dress herself up beautifully, but now, with her hair scattered on her face, she has no energy to comb it with her hands.
There was still vomit on the clothes, and the makeup on his face was already stained.
"I brought some millet porridge. The doctor said that you can still eat some liquid food." Gu Yan never looked into her eyes, minding her own business, with emotion in her tone.
Manla could hear it and reached out to hold her hand.
"Hey, this time is an exception. It won't be like this next time."
The woman's lips twitched and she forced a smile to reassure Gu Yan.
"Do you think I will believe you?" Gu Yan blew the porridge to cool down and handed it to Manla's mouth, keeping a sullen face.
Manla said nothing, obediently drank the porridge handed to him like a child who made a mistake.
"You take a rest for a while. I'll change your clothes. Look at what these clothes are like. Also, don't wear these clothes again. I really don't know what your customers want to do to kill you." "
"But they didn't drink me. I only collapsed after I came to the hospital. The contract was still signed. Besides, in this environment, drinking is a very important means of signing the contract."
Manla watched Gu Yan's reaction carefully.
"Okay, okay, I don't understand what you are doing. I just hope that you will stop drinking in the future and drink less. As for making money, my business is gradually improving now. Although it is not as good as yours, I can still I can support you!”
Gu Yan's serious look made Manla chuckle and nod with satisfaction: "Well, not bad, I've just grown up. It seems that your studio has been developing well recently."
The two of them chatted one after another.
"How are you and Mo Yichen lately? Has he told you about living together?"
“…”
When Mo Yichen was mentioned, Gu Yan's hand movements visibly paused, then quickly returned to normal.
"No, Chen Qian came to see me two days ago. She wanted to give me a blow, but she didn't succeed. After Mo Yichen found out about it, he apologized to me on her behalf. That's it."
It was as if he was talking about something that had nothing to do with him, so calmly that no one could see any reaction.
"What? Chen Qian came to see you? What did she do to you?"
Manla moved and hit his stomach, grinning and sucking in cold air.
"We slapped each other, and no one took advantage."
"Hit each other ... alas, you can't think of it, Gu Yan, now you have so temper, that's fine, so I can rest assured." Manla nodded thoughtfully.
"Do you really have no feelings for Mo Yichen? After so many days, you should have figured it out."
When she was about to ask something else, Gu Yan stood up.
"Okay, I'll go out and get you some hot water. Don't worry about it. While you're in the hospital, take a good rest for a few days and put your company aside."
Gu Yan pressed the corner of the quilt for Manla, picked up the thermos next to her and left the ward.
Looking at Gu Yan's back, Manla had the illusion that she saw her own shadow on it. The corners of her mouth curled up slightly and she breathed a long sigh of relief.
