Delayed confession

About a minute later, Gu Mochuan felt the person in his arms stiffen a little. He carefully let go of Xu Weixi and asked gently,

"Did I scare you?"

Xu Weixi now felt her face getting a little hot, and she was ready to leave with a flickering look in her eyes.

"I have something else to do at work, so I'll go back first."

"I'll take you there." As soon as Gu Mochuan said this, he remembered that he was busy going out and his car was still in front of the supermarket.

"No, it's not far, I can go back by myself."

Xu Weixi is so smart. Even though Gu Mochuan didn't say it explicitly just now, it was already a disguised confession.

Although both of them have reached the right age to get married, for some reason, she is still a little worried. Gu Mochuan chose her without hesitation even though he misunderstood that she was divorced and had children. Such feelings are too strong and too unfamiliar to her.

"Then I'll pick you up tonight."

"up to you."

Looking at the girl's stiff back, Gu Mochuan felt that he was not mistaken just now. Xu Weixi blushed. She liked him!

"You're back? I've finished your proofreading." Wang Lingling was squinting at the little person in the computer, when suddenly her shoulders sank. She raised her head and saw that the other person was Xu Weixi who had rushed back, then turned her head back to the screen.

Xu Weixi nodded, sat back in her seat, and asked, "What else do you have to do? I'll do it with you."

"Hey, cut this guy off."

When Wang Lingling heard this, she immediately perked up and pointed at the computer with disgust on her face.

"My eyes are blurry from looking at it."

Xu Weixi glanced at the screen sideways and recognized that this person was a district head of Xiqiao City. He had just done an interview two days ago, and asked in confusion,

"What's wrong with this guy?"

"It's corruption." Wang Lingling leaned back in her chair and rubbed her hair impatiently.

"Look at these people. They have reached this level. Can't they just stay put? They make us, the people behind the scenes, work overtime."

Xu Weixi motioned for her to send it to him, "Okay, you take a rest first, I'll do it."

Wang Lingling looked at Xu Weixi with an expression of gratitude for the rescue.

"You are so nice, Weixi baby, I love you!"

Xu Weixi dodged her bear hug and clicked to accept the document.

"Okay, stop being cheesy, close your eyes and take a break."

As soon as Wang Lingling saw that she didn't have to work anymore, she immediately returned to her previous lively state and gossiped, "Did you solve the problem just now?"

"solved."

"When I left, I looked worried, but when I came back, I looked happy. What's going on?"

Just as Wang Lingling was still teasing Xu Weixi, Wu Yunsheng walked over to their workstations.

"What are you so happy about, Xiao Xu? Can you help me take a look at this manuscript?"

Xu Weixi raised his hand to take it, flipped through it,

"When do you want it?"

"The sooner the better. Before I get off work, okay?"

This kind of work doesn't require bothering others, but Wu Yunsheng's temper can't be changed. Xu Weixi thought about it and decided that he should help out to save some trouble.

"That's about it. Once I finish editing this, you can watch it."

"Okay, thanks." Wu Yunsheng twisted her slender waist and went back to her workstation to start putting on makeup. No one else thought there was anything wrong with it.

Wang Lingling retracted her gaze and spoke up for Xu Weixi in her ear.

"She only reads three manuscripts a day, is late and leaves early, and even asks you to help her proofread."

Xu Weixi patted her hands, signaling her to speak more quietly. Wang Lingling understood and changed the subject, asking,

"By the way, did you take a one-inch photo?"

After Wang Lingling reminded her, Xu Weixi finally remembered the matter that she had forgotten. GQ Company decided to send people from their publicity department out of the province to study for a few days after a while.

She rummaged through the drawer and found a paper bag containing photos, but it was empty. After thinking for a while, she said,

"I think I have, but at home, is today the last day or tomorrow?"

"Tomorrow, but I think they have almost handed in their papers."

"I'll hand it in tomorrow."

Xu Weixi nodded, closed the drawer, opened the video file and started editing.

Wang Lingling lay down on the table and said sullenly, "I heard there are only two places this time. Do you think I can get one?"

Xu Weixi didn't stop what he was doing, and asked, "Aren't there several rounds? Do you want to go through all of them?"

Wang Lingling nodded and expressed her thoughts, "Yes, but I want to go with you. We can go shopping or something."

Xu Weixi thought for a moment, then turned sideways and asked, "Can't I choose for myself? Who is responsible for this?"

"Wang Xing."

"Why don't you ask him? It's okay if we don't go in the first group."

"Okay, I'll go ask."

Azure Community,

As soon as Xu Weixi entered the room, he made eye contact with Xu Guochang who was mopping the floor.

"Why are you back?"

Xu Weixi pulled out the key and ignored Xu Guochang. He glanced at Fang Yuan who was cooking in the kitchen with a mask on, then went into his bedroom and said casually,

"I'm at home now, I can come back whenever I want. Why, do I need to report in advance?" Fang Yuan heard the noise and served the dishes. She heard this sentence as soon as she came out. She looked at her husband who was standing there, and said quickly,

"That's not what your dad meant. He's not good at talking...Are you staying here tonight? Xiao Rui isn't coming back."

"No, I'm back to get something, I'll leave right away."

Xu Weixi didn't even turn his head and searched around the house, and finally found a few one-inch bare-headed photos of himself in a book.

"Let's eat first." Fang Yuan said nervously as he stood at the door.

"No, you can eat."

"This year your grandmother is spending the Mid-Autumn Festival at your uncle's house. Let's go together. This year the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival are combined so the holiday is longer, and you've also been transferred back."

Xu Guochang sat at the dining table and said casually. Seeing that Xu Weixi didn't respond, he asked,

"What, you don't want to go?"

Xu Weixi paused while putting on his shoes and replied expressionlessly,

"Do not want to."

When Xu Guochang saw her attitude, he immediately showed his authority and taught her a lesson.

"Your grandma was so kind to you when you were a child. Tell me, you have been working for many years now. Have you ever gone back to visit her? Your brother goes back every year during the Chinese New Year and other holidays."

Xu Weixi turned his back to Xu Guochang, with a sarcastic smile on his face.

"How do you know she's nice to me?"

"We were busy with work when you were little, and it was your grandmother who brought you up. You should learn to be grateful."

"Xiao Xi, your father is right. Although your grandmother is a little strict with you, it is also for your own good."

Hearing Fang Yuan's support, Xu Weixi's eyes filled with tears. She opened the door and walked out.

"Let's talk about it later. Our unit has an opportunity to study abroad, so there might be a conflict in time."

Gu Mochuan leaned against the car door, his stern face lacking his usual hostility, and the light at his fingertips flickered.

He looked up at the lights upstairs. Although he didn't know which floor it was, he believed that sooner or later Xu Weixi would tell him.
