Delayed confession

Chapter 21 What you see may not be what you think

The two little girls had already gone somewhere else. Xu Weixi supported his chin with one hand, looking at the night view outside the glass. Thinking about the situation at home, he looked tired.

She might need to rent a house near the company soon.

After checking the time, Xu Weixi put everything in his bag and prepared to take the subway back.

As soon as I stood up, I found two folded papers fell out of the bag. I bent down and picked them up.

"Eight-minute friendship?"

Xu Weixi thought for a while before remembering that it was given to her by a salesman on the road after she had dinner with Joey a few days ago.

Just as she was about to throw it into the trash can at hand, the urging from home and Gu Mochuan's expression flashed through her mind. Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and she put the flyer back into her bag.

In the car, Gu Mochuan had just put out his cigarette and was about to start the car when Mu Guanyu called.

"Oh my god, why didn't you seize such a good opportunity today?"

"What opportunity?" Gu Mochuan asked in a light tone without stopping his hands.

"It's a chance to be with a goddess. Don't say you don't have this intention. I don't know what kind of person you are. If there is no one among your classmates who you want to meet, would you come and ask me to organize a party?"

Gu Mochuan's face was stern, and he said irritably, "It took two months to set up a bureau? Your connections are not good enough."

"Then don't coordinate. I'm not the boss of their company. If I want to organize a team building, I can do it."

"Don't change the subject. Tell me, what's going on?"

"Go back to the store and close it."

Mu Guanyu thought Gu Mochuan had gone down to see Xu Weixi off on purpose, but he didn't expect that he was going back to the store. He couldn't help but wonder if he had really misunderstood, "You're not here for Xu Weixi?"

From Xu Weixi's lost expression just now, Gu Mochuan guessed that Xu Weixi might not be happy in her life, so she didn't tell others about her marriage and childbirth like Yu Wei did.

After a few seconds, Mu Guanyu asked uncertainly, "Sun Kexia?"

"Take some time to see an ophthalmologist."

Ignoring the yelling and cursing on the other end, Gu Mochuan hung up the phone and drove to the back door of the cafe.

The second floor of the cafe is Gu Mochuan's office.

There was a person lying on a bamboo rocking chair, holding a copy of "Anatomy of Decoration Design" in one hand, with long and distinct fingers, and the other hand was casually resting, and he was dozing with his eyes closed.

Hearing the door open, the man squinted his eyes and looked towards the door.

"How come you have time to come to the store today? Aren't you going to a class reunion?"

Gu Mochuan ignored the person on the recliner and walked straight to the glass and stood there.

The man followed the other person's gaze and looked out the window. "What are you looking at?"

Seeing that Gu Mochuan didn't answer, the man didn't get angry. He leaned back in the bamboo rocking chair and smiled, "You didn't kidnap her back, did you?"

He tilted his head, his nose was high, his skin was whiter than a woman's, which made people jealous. His eyes were half-closed, and his very long eyelashes covered the bottom of his eyes. Although his voice was low and hoarse, it could be heard that it was clear.

After a while, probably knowing that Gu Mochuan would not answer her curiosity, An Yuchen stretched out her long legs, walked to his side, leaned on the desk, and gently closed the book in her hand.

The second floor of the cafe has one-way glass, so they can clearly see the people downstairs.

Without even guessing, An Yuchen knew that the girl in black clothes who was typing on the keyboard with her back to them was the person Gu Mochuan was looking at.

"Why, you haven't caught her yet?" An Yuchen unscrewed his thermos cup and asked leisurely.

"She is married and her children are several years old."

"Ahem," An Yuchen choked.

"Didn't she inform you of her marriage? Aren't you a good friend of hers?"

Originally, An Yuchen wanted to tease his friend, but he didn't expect that the plot not only didn't develop as they expected, but also ended directly. He felt a little embarrassed for a moment.

"Maybe there was no wedding." Gu Mochuan's expression was gloomy and his voice was soft.

An Yuchen looked at the people upstairs and downstairs who were in a daze, thought for a while, and gave a suggestion that he thought was not bad.

"If you like, you can snatch her away by marriage. Judging from her appearance...she's not having a good life."

Gu Mochuan shook his head. With Xu Weixi's personality, if he broke up her family, she would really hate him for the rest of her life.

"But are you sure she is married? How can she not go home so late after getting married? I won't leave my girl alone outside so late." An Yuchen asked with some confusion.

"Every family has its own problems."

"Just give up like that? You've done so much, don't you regret it?"

An Yuchen suddenly became curious about this woman who had kept a man like Gu Mochuan chaste for so many years and who had been extremely protective of him even though they were not together.

Just as he was about to go down to see who it was, a heavy object pressed down on his left shoulder.

"Surprise, your good friend is back."

A naughty smile, even the two thick eyebrows were rippling softly, like the bright crescent moon in the night sky.

Her fair skin sets off her pale pink lips, handsome and prominent facial features, and perfect face shape, especially the dazzling diamond earrings on her left ear, which add a touch of unruly to her already gentle face.

"How do you react? Are you unhappy? Are you unhappy?" He Yang asked pretending to be angry.

An Yuchen slapped his arm that was pressing on his shoulders and said perfunctorily, "Happy, glad."

"Then what happened to him?" He Yang raised his chin slightly, pursed his lips and asked.

"Good friend, please forgive him. He just broke up." An Yuchen raised the corner of his mouth and answered seriously.

"Well, there are many better girls in the world. Why do you have to love only one? Listen to me. I will introduce you to a better one tomorrow." He Yang patted Gu Mochuan's shoulder earnestly.

Before An Yuchen could pull the ignorant He Yang back, Gu Mochuan had already twisted his arms behind his back.

"I'm wrong, brother. It hurts, it hurts." He Yang begged for mercy as soon as he saw that he had played too much.

"Okay, even though He Yang's words are unpleasant to hear, his point of view is very correct. You are already 26 years old, and it's time to settle down." An Yuchen rescued He Yang and looked at Gu Mochuan seriously.

"That's right." He Yang rubbed his arm and said in a wronged voice, "I'm doing this for your own good. Auntie has told us many times that if we hadn't promised, she would have doubted whether you like women or not."

Gu Mochuan retracted his gaze, walked to the desk, and threw a bottle of water to He Yang.

When He Yang saw that Gu Mochuan's expression had eased, he immediately took out a flyer and said, "Our company is hosting an 'Eight Minutes Dating' event. Come and take a look."

An Yuchen slowly turned his face away and vowed never to save this brainless friend again.

After waiting for a while and not hearing He Yang's scream, An Yuchen turned around and was surprised to see that Gu Mochuan not only did not get angry but instead started to read the contents of the flyer seriously.

"It's no use for you to be envious. There are conditions for participating...you must be single." He Yang waved the flyer in front of him with a proud look on his face.
