In the western restaurant where people are drinking and drinking.
Gu Tingyun looked at the lively discussion on the table in the distance, looked back at Tang Jiao, and asked with a smile.
"Aren't you afraid that they are all gone and the magazine is at a standstill?"
Gu Tingyun cut the steak and asked slowly.
The table in the distance was from Tang Jiao and others from the magazine.
Tang Jiao chuckled softly, and then said coquettishly, "Just leave. If they want to leave, I can't stop them. Besides, it will take me a month to re-decorate. This time is probably enough time for me to leave." We’ve found the right person.”
Gu Tingyun didn't take it seriously.
He said: "I don't think it's that easy to find people, unless you poach some experts from other places at a high price. But my little Ayo, are you sure you can still do it now? The investment is too big, you can get your money back. It’s also very difficult.”
Gu Tingyun's expression could not tell whether he was worried or otherwise. He was very calm, as if he was chatting with Tang Jiao about nothing.
Tang Jiao laughed crisply, winked and said meaningfully, "It doesn't matter if you can't find anyone. In fact, I have a secret weapon. I just can't tell you for the time being."
Gu Tingyun laughed and said, "Then I'll wait and see."
The two people sat together, the handsome man and the beautiful woman were pleasing to the eye, and many people's eyes fell on them.
Tang Jiao teased: "When you come out with a beauty like me, do you get more attention?"
Gu Tingyun looked at her with a half-smile, and said meaningfully: "Maybe. But I think there are many people looking at me, right?"
Tang Jiao immediately shook her head and said playfully: "It's impossible, it's impossible. Who dares to look at your seventh master more?"
Gu Tingyun raised his eyebrows, lightly tapped Tang Jiao's little hand with his fingers, and then slowly held her hand.
Tang Jiao bit her lip and asked coquettishly: "What are you doing in public?"
Gu Tingyun said: "You can understand it as a declaration of sovereignty, or you can understand it as my intention to let everyone watch the show. It doesn't matter, it depends on how you understand it."
Tang Jiao snorted and secretly picked at his palm.
Gu Tingyun's palms felt slightly numb, and he looked into Tang Jiao's eyes with a little more emotion.
After all, Tang Jiao had little experience in matters between men and women. She kept making mischievous moves and said with a smile, "Don't you have a sense of touch?"
Gu Tingyun pursed his lips and said nothing.
Seeing that he had no reaction, Tang Jiao became more and more chaotic. Her little feet silently kicked off her shoes and rubbed his legs.
Gu Tingyun looked at Tang Jiao, frowned slightly, and said, "Hey, don't mess around."
Tang Jiao smiled cutely, with a hint of softness: "What did I do? Brother Qi, why don't you tell me?"
When Tang Jiao called "Seventh Brother", it was with a hint of ridicule.
Her little feet were very dishonest, moving up and down Gu Tingyun's legs.
Gu Tingyun let go of Tang Jiao's hand, lowered his head and took a sip of wine, then said: "If you continue, I will take it as an invitation."
Tang Jiao let out a sigh and complained seriously: "Why are you so lacking in determination? How can I rest assured in the future if you are like this?"
Accusing little eyes kept glancing at Gu Tingyun.
The thief shouts to catch the thief, but this little girl does it very well.
Gu Tingyun's eyebrows were slightly tense. If he said he was nervous, he wasn't. More like a young man with a hint of seriousness and caution.
"I'm talking to you! You're still not paying attention to me."
Tang Jiao pouted and complained.
Naturally, no one noticed the little moves the two made under the table, but just by looking at the intimacy of their conversation, one could tell that the relationship between the two was unusual.
Tang Jiao was in a good mood. Although things at the magazine were not going smoothly, it was basically as she expected. And she is a person who distinguishes between public and private affairs, and will never substitute those things into her private life.
And...she didn't think it was anything.
That's probably the case, but I'm in a good mood.
It's just that Tang Jiao's smiling appearance was in sharp contrast to the afternoon, which made some people involved unhappy.
That's Lao Li and a few others.
Several of them were Lao Li's subordinates, so they followed his lead.
Lao Li also knows how to win over people's hearts. It doesn't look good that this matter has gone so far this time. He just brought a few colleagues to eat here. Such a place actually cost him a lot of money. If he really said it, it would be very painful.
But this time, the old man from the Evening News was invited to the dinner, so he naturally wanted to show off.
After all, he always brags in front of them about how high-end he is.
Lao Ye originally did not intend to stand in the same camp as him, but the salary system proposed by Tang Jiao really did not satisfy him. For this reason, he roped in two more people who stood firmly with him to come with him. Lao Li discussed countermeasures.
At this time, personal grievances are always less important and should be dealt with externally unanimously.
A large table for eight people is always eye-catching. Tang Jiao and the others arrived a little early, so they naturally noticed them immediately.
This was also the reason why Gu Tingyun mentioned this matter. Otherwise, he probably wouldn't have asked more questions.
Tang Jiao saw Old Li and Lao Ye early, but it took them a long time to see Tang Jiao.
She was sitting with a man, smiling all over her face, which was completely different from the cold man with a mocking smile on his face in the afternoon.
Since both parties had seen each other, Lao Li didn't care about the situation and walked straight to Tang Jiao's table. Before he could get too close, a man in black stretched out his hand to stop them.
This is Gu Si.
Lao Li sneered and said, "Miss Tang, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet Miss Tang here. Now I understand why Miss Tang has such great ability to buy a newspaper."
He smiled mockingly, as if Tang Jiao was being supported by someone behind her back.
Tang Jiao wondered if she was too young, so that these people thought they could find some kind of place here.
She smiled lightly and tilted her head to look at Lao Li.
At this time, Lao Ye also came over, and he was a little embarrassed. He didn't know if she heard their discussion just now about making progress and retreat together, forcing Tang Jiao to accept the original treatment, or even a higher treatment than the original treatment.
But he smoothed things over: "Ms. Tang, Lao Li drank too much, we..."
Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Lao Li, who said: "You start flattering me again, we are in the same group."
Then she smiled with Tang Jiao: "Miss Tang, I don't care where you come from, and I don't care whether you are a serious person or not...ah!"
Gu Si swung his punch and hit him directly on the chin. Old Li fell to the ground with a cry.
Gu Tingyun put down the wine glass in his hand and smiled lightly: "Have I really stayed at home for too long? Even cats and dogs dare to bully my people."
The manager of the western restaurant came over following the sound and was frightened to death when he saw the scene. How come someone comes to find trouble in such a good situation
Don’t you know this is Master Gu Qi
Seeking death!
Thinking of this, I just want to crush the blind person in front of me to death.
He bowed and apologized repeatedly: "Master Qi, Master Qi, I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry. What happened here..."
Gu Tingyun waved his hands, as if he didn't want to say more to him.
The restaurant, which was originally a bit noisy, is now extremely quiet. Although I don't know what happened here, I immediately knew that someone had a dispute.
Gu Si dragged Lao Li up, letting him scream like a slaughtering pig, and dragged him towards the door.
The people at their table came forward and condemned Tang Jiao with every word.
People tend to bully the weak and fear the strong. Tang Jiao didn't say a word. On the contrary, they felt that Tang Jiao was easy to talk to.
Lao Ye said: "Miss Tang, I know Lao Li is a mean-mouthed person, but you can't be like this, right? How could you be like this? You were wrong in the first place, and now you still..."
As he was talking, he saw a row of people in black entering the restaurant. Seeing that these people were doing things without thinking, the restaurant manager immediately took a step back to avoid getting into trouble.
They were surrounded and quickly carried out.
Gu Tingyun didn't say anything, just wiped his hands slowly and calmly.
Tang Jiao apologized: "I've caused you trouble."
Gu Tingyun seemed a little unhappy when Tang Jiao said this. He said calmly: "I should have done these things in the first place. Are you too outspoken to say that?"
Tang Jiao smiled slightly and looked at the restaurant manager. The restaurant manager immediately stepped forward and said, "I'm really sorry for causing trouble to Mr. Qi and Miss Tang. I'll ask the chef to make some desserts for Miss Tang later." I apologize, and I hope Miss Tang won’t mind the trouble I caused you today. I’m really sorry, and I promise it won’t happen like this in the future.”
Tang Jiao shook her head: "Actually, it was us who caused you trouble."
"No way, Miss Tang, please don't say that."
As he spoke, he glanced at Gu Qiye secretly. Gu Qiye had no special expression on his face. He was a little unsure, but he still said: "This time it's all our fault. There will never be a next time for something like this."
He said it very sincerely. Tang Jiao kicked Gu Tingyun under the table. Gu Tingyun raised his head and said, "Make an extra dessert to pack."
The restaurant manager immediately beamed: "Okay, okay."
He then stood in the middle of the restaurant and added: "The little episode just now has affected everyone's interest. I will add two desserts to each table tonight and charge them to my account. I hope everyone will bear with me."
The price of a little dessert is always limited, but doing so makes people feel good.
Tang Jiao whispered: "This is how to do business."
Gu Tingyun raised his eyebrows and said, "As long as it doesn't affect your mood."
Tang Jiao burst out laughing and said slowly: "What's worth affecting my mood? I won't let those people affect my mood. They are stupid, so just continue to be stupid. I don't mind if the idiots are taught a lesson. For a moment. Really, sometimes if you don’t let them know some things about the east, west, north, and south, they might think they can go to heaven.”
She really has no mercy.
Gu Tingyun chuckled softly, nodded and said, "It makes some sense."
What he cared about most was Tang Jiao. Seeing that she didn't have too many bad emotions, he felt relieved.
"Almost everyone from Evergreen Magazine is here, right?"
he asked.
Tang Jiao shook her head and said, "No, Sister Gao, who manages the warehouse, is not here. Another person named Yan Heng is not here, and then..." She thought for a while, "Yan Heng's girlfriend Xiao Meng is not here either."
She smiled lightly: "We can't eat anymore, why don't we leave?"
Gu Tingyun raised his eyebrows and said, "Are you going...or do you want to go to the door and watch the excitement?"
Tang Jiao shook her head and said, "No, I just want to say harsh words at the door."
Gu Tingyun looked at her with a half-smile.
Tang Jiaojiao said angrily: "Isn't it possible?"
Of course, as long as she speaks in such a coquettish tone, Gu Tingyun has no ability to resist no matter what she says.
The two of them went out together. Gu Tingyun saw Lao Li lying there after being beaten. The others were surrounded by men in black. Most of them had some scratches, but they were not serious.
Naturally, if they really took action, they would definitely not suffer just this little injury.
It was just a scratch from throwing them out.
Gu Si stepped forward: "Seventh Master, Miss Tang."
Tang Jiao saw them in such a mess and sneered. She didn't have much sympathy, but said calmly: "Next time if you want to commit suicide, you'd better attack me directly, so that I can justifiably throw them into the Huangpu River. Mr. It’s better than fighting like this, which is very bad.”
Tang Jiao really spoke harshly.
Everyone was in a panic, and when they looked at Tang Jiao, they felt a little more frightened.
Gu Tingyun found it funny inexplicably, she was such a childish little girl.
He put his arm around Tang Jiao's shoulders and whispered, "Let's go and take you home."
But on the way back, Gu Tingyun said: "The little girl has a good heart."
Tang Jiao asked, "Me? Don't you think I'm vicious?"
Gu Tingyun said: "Let them know earlier that a lesson is a bad thing for them. If they are taught a lesson for committing suicide the first time, there will be no second time. If not, they will be thrown into the trap one day. From the Huangpu River. They don’t understand your thoughts, but I do.”
It was precisely because of his understanding that he knew how good Tang Jiao was.
Tang Jiao looked up at Gu Tingyun and bit her lip: "I'm not that good. I just want to get over it once and for all and not get involved with them. It's boring."
Gu Tingyun rubbed her head, kissed her on the lips, and whispered: "Lie."
Tang Jiao raised her head and pushed him: "Behave yourself."
