Sleeping in the middle of the night, Du Xiaoxian woke up suddenly, as if she had stepped on the ground and fell from the cliff, she screamed out of fright, and sat up in shock, probably sweating on her back, sticky, forehead There was also a cold dampness on her face, she took a few breaths, collected herself, and wiped off the sweat with a paper towel on the bedside table. He took another sip of water from the glass.
It was a dream, but I couldn't remember the scene in the dream, I only remembered the fear when she fell off the cliff at the end. So flustered, so desperate, there seemed to be a person standing on the opposite cliff, his clothes fluttering in the wind, he couldn't see his face clearly, but his condensed gaze was like ice.
She has always slept well and rarely dreams. Before meeting Gu Nianbin, her idea was simple: earn money to eat. As long as there is food to eat, she is not afraid. After following Gu Niandou, sleeping peacefully in his warm embrace every night, she still didn't have to think too much, because Gu Nianbin had thought of everything for her.
Du Xiaoxian slipped off her slippers and went to the window in the dim light outside. Gu Nianbin was not there, so she didn't even want to turn on the night light. When she is sad, she likes to hide in the dark, so that no one can see her and no one can hurt her. She can hide in the dark and silently lick the wound.
Sometimes she will feel that she is a duckweed with no roots, no matter where she floats, no place is her home, no place can stay for a long time, even if she can be happy, it is only short-lived, only darkness, darkness will always be there, forever won't abandon her.
Lifting up the curtains and looking out, it was already dead of night, the road stretched out like a gray belt, there was not a single passing car, but there was a car parked by the side of the road. She saw this car before going to bed, and it was forbidden to park in this area, so she thought it was just a temporary stay, but she didn't expect that the car was still parked where it was when she woke up. She thought that if she didn't leave in the morning, she would definitely be copied. She had seen the police copying signs, and Shao Baiqing was fined by the traffic police when he parked his car at the bus stop. Afterwards, she made a special trip to apologize to Shao Baiqing, because she was the one who got involved.
She pressed her face against the window, and the window glass was actually warmer than her face, with a warm feeling. She looked at the tall buildings on the side. There was not a single lighted window, and it was gray like a big rectangular box.
Suddenly there was a flash of light, Du Xiaoxian looked down, and the car parked by the side of the road turned on its headlights at some point, and the dazzling headlights illuminated the road ahead in white. Du Xiaoxian blinked, feeling a little horrified, she didn't see anyone, but the headlights suddenly turned on, and it was silent, as if someone cast a spell.
She squinted her eyes and looked carefully. Because of the reflection, she couldn't see the people in the cab at all. She wasn't even sure if there was anyone in the car? The light came on so suddenly! With courage, she gently pushed the window open a crack, and at the same time as the cold wind came in, she heard a slight whine, even though it was so far away, it was still clearly audible in the silent night.
The car moved, and the far lights turned into near lights. At this moment, she vaguely saw someone in the car. Sure enough, it belonged to someone, but when did that person get into the car? Or was he just in the car? Did you stop on the side of the road because you fell asleep? She remembered that Shao Baiqing once had such an experience, saying that he drank, parked the car on the side of the road and slept, and did not go home until he sobered up. Then, this person, too!
The car was not driving fast, it was driving slowly along the side of the road, but no matter how slow it was, it was out of her sight. In this silent night, everything seemed to have fallen asleep, only the people in the car and her standing by the window were awake!
In the second half of the night, Du Xiaoxian still slept extremely unsteadily, in a daze, half dreaming and half awake, until he saw the dawn outside the window.
She jumped out of bed and opened the curtains. The sky was extremely light gray-blue, and the morning light was colder than the night wind. She sneezed twice in a row, and took a piece of Gu Nianbin's coat and put it on. The clothes were very warm, just like his embrace, and she smelled a faint scent of mint, which was his unique scent.
When she was young, she saw her grandmother standing in the wind wiping her eyes, and she asked her why she was crying? Grandma said it was blown by the wind.
So now, she must have been blown by the wind too. It was actually very uncomfortable to cry against the wind. The wind blew the tears cold, sticking to her face like a layer of oar paste, so tight that it hurt a little.
Du Xiaoxian doesn't know what's wrong with him? She is not a sentimental person, and she doesn't like to think about complicated things. She has been ignorant for so many years, and her sad days are rare. What's the matter now
She wiped away a tear. First go to the kitchen to steam breakfast in the pot, and then go to the bathroom to wash up. Gu Nianbin was not around, so she had to do everything by herself. She picked out the clothes she wanted to wear in the cloakroom and changed into them. She sat in front of the dresser and combed her hair. The pigtails were crooked after two rounds. She simply gave up and tied a braid behind her head like before. Ponytail, Gu Nianbin used to always say that her hair was tied too loose and would easily fall off, so this time she tied it so tightly that even her scalp hurt. But the high ponytail is swaying behind the head, looking very lively. She nodded to herself in the mirror satisfied.
Going downstairs after breakfast, she suddenly saw Gu Nian Toubin's car parked by the side of the road, she stopped, her heart was beating violently, as if it was about to jump out of her throat.
The car door opened, and it was Xiao Ding who came out. With no expression on his face, he stepped forward to take her schoolbag and said, "Master asked me to take you to school."
"He," Du Xiaoxian bit his lips suddenly, he couldn't mention Gu Nianbin, he would cry. She didn't want to cry in front of Xiao Ding, so she bit her lip tightly.
Seeing her appearance, Xiao Ding felt uncomfortable, and said, "Young master has gone to the company."
When she got into the car, Xiao Dingyu said earnestly: "Xiaoxian, you have always been a sensible person. The young master works hard and is under a lot of pressure. Sometimes you should stop being petty and live a good life with the young master. If you can It is your good fortune that the young master is together."
Du Xiaoxian was still biting her lips and did not speak. Xiao Ding was right, it was her blessing to be with the young master. But, she really didn't show her temper, really didn't! If she knew where she was wrong, she would definitely change it, but no one told her, told her what was wrong. She felt sad for her own dullness and stupidity, she never knew how to read words, so there must be something wrong with her, the young master will be like this, it must be!
Gu Nian Toubin's mood did not improve, but became heavier. However, he is a person who does great things, no matter how chaotic his heart is, he is calm and composed on the surface.
So when Shao Baiqing met him in the elevator, he smiled and punched him: "What happened to you yesterday? It's like the sky is falling."
Gu Niantoubin said flatly: "I said it's fine."
"Isn't it because I'm having trouble with Du Xiaoxian?" Shao Baiqing was really curious, to make Gu Nianbin look like that, the matter must be a big deal, and he can definitely have something to do with Du Xiaoxian.
Gu Nianbin glanced at him, "Mind your own business."
"It's you and me who care, I don't care about other people's business." Shao Baiqing bumped his shoulder: "Can't you even tell me?"
"It's okay." Gu Nianbin said, "Do you have Manager Gu's bid document? I'll show it to me later."
Shao Baiqing said: "I guess it's useless to read it. I heard that the bidding conditions will be changed."
"Where did you get the news? Are you sure?"
"It shouldn't be wrong." Shao Baiqing frowned slightly: "It seems that the investment amount and ratio have changed. The company's turnover capital is not much. If it increases significantly, we may have difficulties."
Gu Nianbin said: "Let's wait for the exact news to come out, but we must be prepared now, sort out all the spare funds of the subsidiary, and see how much we can squeeze out."
"Okay, I'll let the finance department sort it out later."
While talking, the elevator arrived, Gu Nianbin and Shao Baiqing parted ways and went back to their respective offices.
Seeing Gu Nianbin coming in, Zhou Ting quickly stood up to say hello, "Boss, Mr. Gu Niannan is here."
Gu Nianbin frowned: "Where is it?"
"I asked him to wait in the reception room."
"Did you say something? If you want money, tell him to go."
"It's about the Gu family's ancestral property. He said he has a clue and wants to report to you."
Gu Nianbin sneered: "I want to sell false information again!"
"Oh, that's right," Zhou Ting picked up the photo on the table and showed it to him, "Mr. Gu said to show you this, and you will know."
Gu Nianbin looked at the photo with a serious expression, and said, "Tell him to come see me."
Gu Nianbin entered the office, sat on the executive chair and pressed the space between his eyebrows. This photo is indeed an interior photo of Gu's Building. Although he hasn't been there for many years, the layout inside is engraved in his heart like a mold, and it can't be wrong. Did Gu Niannan really find the owner of the building
Soon, there was a knock on the door, and he responded in a low voice, "Come in."
Gu Niannan stretched his neck and glanced at the door, then walked in slowly, and called him with a smile on his face: "Brother!"
Gu Nianbin raised his eyelids to look at him, and pointed to the chair in front of the table. Under his gaze, Gu Niannan panicked, but pretended to be calm, but Zhou Ting's slightly trembling hands betrayed his inner tension when Zhou Ting came in to deliver tea.
"Where did the photo come from?"
"This photo is really hard-won," Gu Niannan continued, "It took many people and went through several relationships to get it. The master refused to come forward, so he got it from the client. "
"Will the other party sell it?"
"This," Gu Niannan said with a smile: "As long as the price is high, how can I not sell it? The client can give me the photo, it must be for this reason!"
"Do you have an intentional price?"
"Brother, you need to come in for an interview, you are an expert in negotiating! How can they ask for as much as they want, you have to lower the price!" Gu Niannan gave him a high hat.
Gu Nianbin asked again: "Don't you know the identity of the master at all?"
"I don't know, it's very mysterious." Gu Niannan said, "I heard that he is a very rich owner."
Gu Nianbin sneered: "You don't even know who the owner of the house is, and who did you buy it from? Besides, what can a photo show? It's not impossible to ask someone to sneak in and take a photo."
"No," Gu Niannan was in a hurry: "How could I do that? I really got it from the client. Not to mention the money, I even got the favor of the boss."
"So, I have to compensate you for the money I spent?" Gu Nianbin tapped his fingers on the table.
Gu Niannan smiled shyly: "It's really, really inconvenient recently, brother, do you think..."
Gu Nianbin raised his lowered eyes suddenly: "Why don't you go to Jiang Kaiwei, I heard that you two have gotten very close recently!"
The sudden words made Gu Niannan's face turn pale, and he was speechless.
A look of disgust flashed across Gu Nianbin's face. If he was in a good mood, he might give him two sons, but now, he can go as far as he can, otherwise... he will make Gu Niannan never want to appear in front of him .
Of course Gu Niannan could understand his expression, he regretted not picking the time to come over, as usual, there would be no good fruit if he continued to entangle, so he had to leave resentfully.
Gu Nianbin looked at his back and sneered, does he look weak and easy to bully now? Even Gu Niannan dared to take him for a fool!
