The air around him suddenly seemed to be stagnant, and the atmosphere became particularly... silent.
Everything smelled like something was wrong.
Tan Han saw Gu Ziyi suddenly speaking in the middle of speaking and followed her gaze. There were three people standing at the door, two men and one woman. One of the men looked directly at Gu Ziyi.
Likewise, Gu Ziyi's eyes were also looking at him.
Tan Han pursed his lips.
Gu Ziyi was about to lower her gaze when she heard Luo Lian's voice: "Miss Gu, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to meet you here."
Luo Lian tried his best to speak in the most normal tone. Only he knew that there was an evil fire in his heart at this moment.
Gu Ziyi could only look at him and said, "Yes, it's quite a coincidence."
Luo Lian looked at Tan Han next to Gu Ziyi, and he asked directly, "Is this Miss Gu's boyfriend?"
Jian Fan sighed inwardly, he was ready. If Luo Lian rushed up to beat someone, he would definitely stop Luo Lian immediately.
Xue Qian didn't know what was going on at first, but now she seemed to understand. She stayed silent, as an outsider.
Gu Ziyi looked at Luo Lian, and what she thought of at this moment was what Xiang Shen said. Luo Lian had been very close to Pei Yuan recently. She suddenly didn't want to explain anything, so she just let Luo Lian acquiesce.
Tan Han spoke: "Hello, I am not Ziyi's boyfriend, just an ordinary friend. I wonder who this gentleman is?"
Gu Ziyi smiled softly and glanced at Tan Han lightly, "Luo Lian, my ex-boyfriend and current business partner."
Tan Han only extracted the three words "ex-boyfriend" as the key points. He looked at Luo Lian calmly.
Luo Lian glanced at Tan Han. He didn't like anyone of the opposite sex around Gu Ziyi. "Miss Gu and I haven't seen each other for a while. Today is such a coincidence. I wonder if I can be lucky enough to treat Miss Gu to a meal?"
Invite me to dinner again.
Gu Ziyi still remembered the last time she had dinner.
Gu Ziyi looked at the two people standing next to him, "Your friends are still waiting for you."
Jian Fan was thinking quickly, "Luo Lian, please lend me your car. We took a taxi when we went out in the morning. Xue Qian is not feeling well at the moment. I want to drive her back. Since you have someone you know here, please trouble me." This lady will give it to you."
Xue Qian, who was inexplicably "feeling unwell", cooperated very well with her husband, "I'm really dizzy right now."
Luo Lian gave the car keys to Jian Fan, "Pay attention to safety. If you are really uncomfortable, you must go to the hospital."
Gu Ziyi watched the three of them perform this act. He sneered in his heart, Luo Lian was really the king of "glaring and telling lies".
Jian Fan took Xue Qian away, while Luo Lian looked at Tan Han, "Sir, I will lend Miss Gu time for a meal, don't you interrupt?"
Tan Han had no right to make decisions for Gu Ziyi, "You can do whatever you want, it has nothing to do with me."
Gu Ziyi knew that Luo Lian would not be easily rejected by her. She turned to look at Tan Han, "Then you wait here for your uncle and aunt. It will probably take a few hours before the filming is finished. I'll leave first."
Tan Han nodded: "Okay, I really want to thank you today."
"It's our friendship, so you're welcome." Gu Ziyi smiled at him.
When she turned to look at Luo Lian, there was no smile on her face. She walked towards Luo Lian, then pushed past Luo Lian and pushed the door directly out.
Luo Lian glanced at Tan Han, and then followed Gu Ziyi's footsteps.
Gu Ziyi went to the parking lot to pick up her car, and Luo Lian followed her. There was no communication between the two during this walk. Gu Ziyi didn't even bother to say polite words or simple greetings. Recently she has been upset because of Luo Lian, although she doesn't know what she has to mess with.
She unlocked the car, opened the driver's door, then stood outside the car door and looked at Luo Lian, "What do you want to eat?"
"My treat, you decide." Luo Lian stood outside the passenger door.
Gu Ziyi glanced at him lightly, then got in the car.
Luo Lian opened the passenger door and got into the car.
After fastening her seat belt, Gu Ziyi started the car. Those were the restaurants where she often ate.
"Why are you there?" Luo Lian asked. God knows how anxious he was after receiving Jian Fan's call, and what kind of mood he was in all the way.
Gu Ziyi didn't look at him, looked forward, and said lightly: "Does it have anything to do with you?"
This rhetorical question left Luo Lian speechless. It also made him feel very uncomfortable. Is it related to him
He didn't have the confidence to say it was related, and naturally he didn't want to say it didn't matter.
Silence fell between the two men.
Gu Ziyi was really annoyed with this feeling.
Similarly, Luo Lian didn't necessarily feel good.
If anyone saw the serious expressions on these two people's faces at this moment, they would definitely think that something big had happened.
The Korean restaurant where Gu Ziyi often eats is not far away, so it only takes ten minutes to drive there. Stopping the car, she unbuckled her seat belt and gave Luo Lian a stingy look.
After Luo Lian got out of the car, Gu Ziyi locked the car.
Then the two of them entered the store, and Gu Ziyi chose a seat in the back. Luo Lian sat opposite her.
Nowadays, ordering is done via mobile phone, so there is no need for a waiter to follow you. Gu Ziyi took out her mobile phone, scanned the WeChat code and entered the store's mini program. She chose two of her favorite foods, then turned the phone around and handed it to Luo Lian, "Look at what you want to eat."
Luo Lian took her phone and said, "I told you I was going to treat you."
Gu Ziyi was too lazy to pay attention to him.
He clicked on two items and then handed the phone back to Gu Ziyi.
Gu Ziyi quickly placed the order and paid. In less than three minutes, the waiter brought the barley tea ordered by Gu Ziyi. Luo Lian was faster than her. He poured a glass first, then placed it in Gu Ziyi's hand and poured himself another glass.
The taste of barley tea is very refreshing.
Luo Lian took a sip of tea.
Gu Ziyi was leaning on the back of her chair and sending messages in the work group. Xu Ruanruan and Xiang Shen sent her the summary of today's high-level meeting. Her hands were busy typing, and her attention was on her mobile phone.
Luo Lian suddenly thought of it when he saw the mobile phone in Gu Ziyi's hand.
He took out his mobile phone and said, "Add WeChat and I will transfer the meal money to you."
Gu Ziyi raised her eyes with a faint light, "Is it necessary?"
"It's necessary. I told you before I came that I would treat you." Luo Lian said seriously.
Gu Ziyi finished sending the message, then opened her WeChat QR code and handed it to Luo Lian. There is absolutely no need to refuse this little thing, it will save yourself money anyway. If he is willing to invite him, why wouldn't she be willing to do it
It takes less than five seconds to complete the process of scanning to add friends.
When it showed that the friend had been successfully added, Luo Lian felt happier than ever before and could hardly restrain the urge to raise the corners of his mouth.
