There was something wrong with his body, and Gu You immediately thought of Xu Biying.
It was Xu Biying who poured water for him and softly advised him to stay a little longer. Gu You and her have known each other for many years. Even if they hadn't become husband and wife, they were still childhood sweethearts. They had never been able to be cruel to Xu Biying, which finally led to today's disaster.
Xu Biying sat on the sofa sobbing, apologizing all the time, saying that she was wrong.
The temperature of the air conditioner in the room was turned on a little high, but it made the mouth dry after a while. Gu You drank half a glass of warm water, looked at the time again, and decided to leave later. Beside her ear was Xu Biying's delicate and soft "Brother You". Unknowingly, she sat closer and closer. Whether it was intentional or not, her neckline was open, revealing her soft and fair skin.
Xu Biying's teary eyes were weak and desolate, which made people unconsciously have a desire to protect.
It was like a fire bursting from my chest.
Xu Biying's hand fell on his knee, and Gu You felt a little irritable for a moment, because another face suddenly appeared in his mind, which made him feel unbearably ashamed. He stood up abruptly, even ignoring his coat, and his tone was colder than usual: "I'm going first."
"Where are you going?"
"Sorry, I have something to do..."
"You can't go!"
Xu Biying wanted to hug him from his back, but was pushed away mercilessly by Gu You. His strength was a little too strong, and she fell to the ground by herself, a little dazed. Gu You walked out the door with big strides, and closed the door with a bang.
Xu Biying yelled secretly, and rushed forward to chase Gu You, but by the time she caught up, Gu You had already driven away.
Xu Biying turned pale with shock.
The first thing she thought of was not whether Gu You would make an embarrassment, but whether she would be taken advantage of by other women and took advantage of it
Gu You drove to the hotel. The hotel for the annual meeting is only a ten-minute drive away, so there is still time to get there.
The cramped car was a bit stuffy, Gu You opened the window to let the cool wind blow on his face, so that the restless blood could calm down. His heart was about to explode, which made him feel uneasy.
This uneasy premonition climbed to a peak after arriving at the hotel.
Gu You hid in the bathroom in a state of embarrassment, letting the cold water splash on his face so that he could wake up quickly.
His whole body was hot and unbearable, and an obvious reaction somewhere made Gu You realize that he had been drugged. As for who it was, he immediately had a candidate in his heart—the person Gu You was least willing to believe.
He didn't expect that Xu Biying would do such indecent methods!
Where did she get her medicine, and when did she have such an idea, Gu You didn't know. He is preoccupied at the moment, and may be seen by others at any time, but Gu You is not reconciled to giving up the opportunity to make an appearance today.
Why do things always go wrong at critical moments every time
Gu You tried his best to restrain his impulse, wishing he could take a cold shower right away, at this embarrassing moment, the person he least wanted to see appeared in front of him.
It was Ruan Jiujiu.
Ruan Jiujiu told Gu You not to run around and hide in the bathroom first. She trotted all the way back to the lobby on the second floor. Tu Nan was already standing on the podium, ready to give a speech later.
Ruan Jiujiu: "... Oops!"
She has to hurry up!
While no one else was paying attention, Ruan Jiujiu stopped a waiter, a young boy. She dragged him aside, the little boy blushed and stammered to ask what was wrong. Ruan Jiujiu said with a serious face, "Do you have any ice cubes?"
"There are some." The waiter thought she wanted to drink an iced drink, "I'll get it for you."
"Okay, give me a bucket!"
"A bucket???" The waiter was startled by Ruan Jiujiu's words.
Ruan Jiujiu clasped his hands together and said softly, "Please, please, it's urgent."
"Uh, are ice cubes okay for freezing?"
"Okay! Please hurry up, thank you!"
The heroine didn't know where she went, and Ruan Jiujiu was also very surprised when she developed a sudden plot of drugging. But this kind of critical moment is obviously not suitable for detoxification by body. Tonight's appearance is equally important to Gu You, and he certainly doesn't want to miss it, Gu You is a very ambitious person.
Therefore, Ruan Jiujiu had no choice but to take heavy medicine.
The waiter was very helpful, but after a while he came over with a bucket, and Ruan Jiujiu took it with difficulty.
"Hi, do you need me to help you?" He couldn't bear it.
"Please help me find a suit. Does the hotel have any spares? It's about 1.8 meters tall, and the size should not be too small. Ah yes, take another towel."
Time was running out, and there was no time to open a room, so Ruan Jiujiu had to make Gu You feel wronged and make up for it in the bathroom.
When Gu You watched Ruan Jiujiu come over with a bucket of ice and an empty bucket, he couldn't help being stunned.
Ruan Jiujiu had a serious expression on his face: "Have you heard of the Ice Bucket Challenge?"
"..."
Gu You went into the bathroom, and for the sake of safety, Ruan Jiujiu brazenly guarded the door of the men's bathroom.
There are very few people who come to the bathroom at this point. Ruan Jiujiu watched for a while, and gradually felt relieved when he heard the sound of water splashing in the bathroom.
At this moment, a man walked up the corridor, who was obviously an employee of the company. When he saw Ruan Jiujiu, he was stunned at first, then pointed to the men's restroom with embarrassment: "That..."
Ruan Jiujiu asked sincerely, "Are you in a hurry?"
"It's not urgent..."
"The men's toilet is broken, you go to another one."
"..."
The two stared at each other, and the atmosphere was awkward for a while.
The other party scratched his head, and didn't dare to ask Ruan Jiujiu how he knew the bathroom was broken, so he could only say embarrassingly, "Then I'll go to another bathroom."
Ruan Jiujiu still looked sincere: "I wish you a happy toilet."
"..."
Watching the other party go away, Ruan Jiujiu wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, deeply feeling that today's embarrassment will be lost. I'm afraid there will be rumors in the whole company the next day, gossip about why Ruan Jiujiu stayed motionless in the men's room.
…
This night, Gu You will never forget it for the rest of his life.
He felt the biting cold over and over again, his muscles were stiff from the cold, his face was pale, and his whole body was trembling, but he gritted his teeth to endure it. As he gritted his teeth and rushed into the ice water, his mind was full of the future and the past, and he thought of many things.
Since he was a child, his parents taught him to take responsibility, but from this moment on, he can no longer afford to be an older brother. The last sliver of warmth he had for Xu Biying was poured with ice water and his head was numb from the cold.
Until the end, he still didn't feel any hot emotions.
He wiped off the water stains on his body with a wooden face, and changed into a black suit. The shoulders were a little narrow, but it was a suitable size.
Gu You walked out the door with the bucket in his hand, his face had already returned to his usual tranquility and gentleness, if it wasn't for the damp hair and pale and stiff skin that exposed the current predicament.
Ruan Jiujiu said: "Put the bucket here, and someone will come to collect it later. You clean up your appearance here. To avoid suspicion, I will go there first."
"Chirp!"
Ruan Jiujiu turned around with a puzzled expression: "Huh?"
He retracted his outstretched fingers, pursed his lips into a straight line, and looked at that beautiful face. He restrained his emotions, and his tone and emotion were just right to express his gratitude: "... Ruan Jiujiu, thank you. Thank you for today's kindness." Will definitely keep it in mind.”
Ruan Jiujiu was amused by his serious look.
She slapped Gu You on the shoulder, and said with a smile: "Hey, don't be so polite, behave yourself later."
Gu You looked at her and smiled too.
He hummed.
On the other side, Tu Nan was standing on the stage, not seeing Ruan Jiujiu and Gu You, and was very anxious. He winked and asked Jiao Fan and the others to find someone and introduce new people later, but since neither of them are here, there is no way to explain.
Just as Ruan Jiujiu was talking, he came out from the side.
Jiao Fan heaved a sigh of relief, ran up to Ruan Jiujiu, and asked in a low voice, "Sister-in-law, why did you go?"
Ruan Jiujiu straightened his hair and said, "I went to the bathroom, sorry, my stomach is a bit spoiled."
"That's good, get ready!"
Ruan Jiujiu just in time. In the vast crowd, Tu Nan found her at a glance. He naturally turned the topic to the newcomer part of this grand introduction. The first one to appear was Ruan Jiujiu. Tu Nan pushed one step away, and with the discussion among the crowd, Ruan Jiujiu walked onto the stage and stood in the middle.
Tu Nan cleared his throat and said, "Before that, some people doubted the strength of our Miss Ruan. Here I want to explain two points.
First of all, our selection is very fair. Ms. Ruan came to Jiacheng with an absolute lead in voting. Everyone can see this, and there is no internal Cypriot behavior.
The second and most important point is that in our new game "Xia Ke Xing", Ms. Ruan is the main creator. The whole game has added a lot of her own inspiration, which has brought us quite a surprise. She has contributed a lot to this success. Here, please applaud her! "
Tu Nan's words caused an uproar among the crowd, but they didn't expect that the idea of the center came from Ruan Jiujiu.
The originally disdainful eyes with tinted glasses turned into admiration and approval. The applause that welcomed Ruan Jiujiu was frivolous at first, because everyone was cheering for her appearance, but this time, most of them applauded her sincerely.
After the applause stopped, Ruan Jiujiu was infected by their emotions and felt a little happy. Her hand holding the microphone trembled slightly, revealing her emotions, but she was very calm on the surface, and she didn't even stumble on the introduction and thank you words, and she finished speaking smoothly.
Tu Nan had originally planned to save the scene, and had already figured out how to answer Ruan Jiujiu's call. She was so generous that Tu Nan secretly gave her a thumbs up.
Ruan Jiujiu bowed, and when he was about to step down, Tu Nan smiled and said, "You did a good job."
"I'm going to be scared to death." Ruan Jiujiu almost amused Tu Nan with his froze face.
If it wasn't for the wrong occasion, he couldn't help teasing this cute little sister-in-law a long time ago.
Ruan Jiujiu stepped off the stage, and Gu You in a suit and leather shoes walked towards him. The two looked at each other and smiled, and the moment they passed by, Ruan Jiujiu said in a low voice, "Come on."
"thanks."
When Gu You came to the stage to introduce himself, Ruan Jiujiu was ready to run away.
She told Lao Meng that she quietly took the coat and asked the obedient and good-tempered waiter brother to pack a bunch of food and go home. Ruan Jiujiu thought that at the company's annual meeting, the real big boss should also eat food, instead of staying at home alone.
In the hustle and bustle, no one noticed her quietly disappearing figure.
The door is opened.
Only a small light was turned on in the living room, which was dark and lonely. Sitting on the sofa, Cheng Juan rested his hand on the back of his head, seemingly in a daze. Hearing the movement, he turned his head away and looked at Ruan Jiujiu in surprise.
He asked slowly, "Why did you come back so early?"
Ruan Jiujiu shook a heavy bag of packed food in his hand, and raised his lips.
"Come back for the annual meeting, boss, what do you think?"
"..."
He was dazed for a moment, and his tone was still warm, but tinged with temperature: "Okay."
The author has something to say: the second day.
Ruan Jiujiu standing on the scale: I'm so stupid, really.
