Repeated rebirth

Chapter 12

When Gu Mian woke up, he found himself on his own bed again, far away from the lake city. He got up in a jiffy, and he didn't feel the exhaustion and discomfort in his body at all, just like everything that happened before. It was but a dream.

After sitting blankly against the edge of the bed for a while, he seemed to have remembered something, and hurried into the bathroom, picking up the small stone that had been placed in the bathroom before.The stone hadn't been stained with his blood yet, it was still pure white and translucent. He stared at the stone for a long time, thinking that this was the most correct reason for his death and resurrection.

It seems absurd, but it is actually the truth.

He picked up the blade and slashed down on his finger neatly. The blood dripped into the stone and sucked it in smoothly. Seeing the stone slowly turning white and red, he felt that it would be no big deal if he died again in the future. of.

The last time I accidentally killed Song Qi and Lu Tianning, but this time, I thought I had the chance to win but was killed by Lu Tianning instead. Now there is another opportunity in front of him, there is no reason why he can't beat them.

The phone rang on time just like the last time, Gu Mian slowly returned to the bedroom, Song Qi's name kept flashing on the phone, Gu Mian had to sort out his mood before answering.

"Xiao Mian, I have to work overtime again today, I think I'll be back later, if you're bored, you can hang out with Gao Yuge and the others, by the way, don't forget to have dinner."

It's been the third time Gu Mian has heard this, and the initial anger is long gone, so he replied indifferently: "Okay."

On the other hand, Song Qi was very keen to hear that something was wrong with Gu Mian, he asked in confusion: "Xiao Mian, what's wrong with you, the voice sounds a bit strange."

"What's so strange?" Gu Mian asked back.

Song Qi couldn't tell what was strange about Gu Mian, he tentatively said, "Xiao Mian, are you feeling uncomfortable, or I will push away the client and come back to accompany you earlier, okay?"

"I'm not feeling sick, I just woke up, you don't need to come back, I have an appointment with Xie Xinyang tonight."

Song Qi didn't force himself after hearing this, and said, "Okay then, I'll come back when I'm done with work, if you haven't slept well, you can rest, and don't forget to bring a coat when you go out."

Just as Gu Mian was about to hang up, he suddenly had a flash of inspiration and asked, "What time do you have dinner tonight?"

Song Qi said with a smile: "Just find a restaurant and eat casually, around 6:[-], what's the matter?"

"It's okay, eat more at night, so that you can work hard."

Song Qi didn't hear Gu Mian's sarcasm, and said in a good mood: "Of course, otherwise I wouldn't have the strength to support my family."

Song Qi has always been very good at talking, before, he didn't need to draft all the love words to Gu Mian. Gu Mian was not in the mood to listen to him, so he hung up the phone after chatting a few words.

Immediately afterwards, he immediately called Xie Xinyang, asked where he was, and ran over immediately.

When Gu Mian arrived at the office, Xie Xinyang had just finished talking about contract renewal with a popular celebrity. Although the celebrity didn't know Gu Mian, seeing him casually entering and leaving Xie Xinyang's office, he naturally knew that their relationship was unusual. , she smiled at Gu Mian as a greeting.

Gu Mian was so preoccupied that he didn't notice the friendly signal from the female celebrity at all. When the female celebrity went out, he asked, "Do you have a ready-made camera here? I don't want people to know, and I need someone Help me get dressed."

"What's wrong with you?" Xie Xinyang saw that Gu Mian was in such a hurry, he quickly pulled the chair in front of him to let him sit down, and asked with concern, "Why are you running in such a hurry, what happened?"

Only then did Gu Mian realize that he was back half a month ago. At that time, he didn't know about Song Qi's cheating, but it wasn't Xie Xinyang who told him last time. He thought about it and said, "Song Qi is behind my back. I know everything that is going on outside, I am very upset now, I want to take pictures of everything they do, and then teach them a good lesson!"

"Xiao Mian?" Xie Xinyang frowned and said, "Don't worry, speak slowly."

"I'm done." Gu Mian saw that Xie Xinyang was pretending to be stupid again. He didn't understand why Xie Xinyang knew that he would hide it from him for Song Qi. It was impossible to say that he was helping Song Qi. Qi didn't know him well at all, so he made it clear, "It's about Song Qi and that little boy, you don't have to hide it from me, and I know you know, I'm here to ask you for help, you won't pretend to be yourself Don't you know anything?"

Xie Xinyang took the seat next to Gu Mian and sat down. He had heard some rumors, but few people should know about this matter. He didn't know how Gu Mian knew about it, but now is obviously not the time to ask about it. He just said, "Then how do you want me to help you?"

Gu Mian said: "I'm here to ask you to borrow a camera, and by the way, find a professional to install it for me. I haven't done any research on this, and I'm afraid that Song Qi will find out. Then you can help me look up the boy's information, please be more detailed. Yes, the sooner the better."

He needed Xie Xinyang's help very much. Even though he already knew Lu Tianning's background, he had to have a name, and Xie Xinyang was very fast. It only took two days, and he could afford to wait two days.

"By the way." He added, "I want to install the camera tonight, and I can't wait all night."

Although Xie Xinyang found it strange, he did not refuse. Instead, he said: "I know someone, there is no problem. It may take a little longer to check the information. You speak so hastily, so give me some time to prepare."

"Okay." Gu Mian didn't talk nonsense, and immediately said, "It's time to get off work soon, Song Qi will go to eat at six o'clock, and we will go in when the time comes, I have a spare key."

The spare key was given to him by Song Qi when the company was first established. He said that it was a company of two people. Give him a key so that he will not be unfamiliar. After so many years, even Gu Mian himself almost forgot to have this key. It is estimated that Song Qi has already forgotten to the horizon.

Xie Xinyang has a wide range of contacts, basically he has people who are good with him in various fields, unlike Gu Mian, who likes to enjoy himself in his own small circle.

Gu Mian led people into the office while Song Qi and Lu Tianning were out for dinner. There were not many things in the office, but the two rows of bookshelves on both sides of the door could hide some things.

Another person found it strange and suggested: "This angle can't take a clear picture of the computer. It will be clearer if it is installed at the back."

Gu Mian glanced at the photo of the two of them on Song Qi's desk, and replied, "It's okay, that angle is good."

Gu Mian insisted, and that person didn't object, and a set of monitoring equipment was quickly installed.

Gu Mian thanked him and invited someone to dinner.

The incident happened suddenly, of course Xie Xinyang couldn't let Gu Mian be alone. He saw Gu Mian eating happily by himself, and he didn't know how to comfort him. Gu Mian seemed to be in a good mood, and kept feeding Xie Xinyang and the others.

That night, Gu Mian stayed at Xie Xinyang's house directly. Seeing Gu Mian like this, Xie Xinyang probably didn't plan to go back, so he had to prepare a guest room for him.

From evening till now, Gu Mian had finished everything in a hurry, and it was only at night that Xie Xinyang had time to ask Gu Mian.

Gu Mian was looking up information with a tablet, when he suddenly saw the juice handed over by Xie Xinyang, he was really shocked, he took it and said, "Do you have something to ask me?"

Xie Xinyang asked carefully: "Didn't you be fine two days ago? Why do you want to check him all of a sudden?"

Gu Mian put down the tablet, and said seriously: "I still want to ask you, you all know it and hide it from me, think I'm easy to bully?"

"Xiao Mian, I didn't want to hide it from you, but I didn't tell you because I wasn't sure." Xie Xinyang said seriously, "And you are so impulsive, even if I want to tell you, I have to figure it out. Say it again."

Gu Mian admitted that he was a little impulsive in doing things, and he didn't intend to pursue the reason, but after hearing what he said, he thought of another thing, and asked, "Do you remember what I told you before? I met a little Taoist at the front door?"

"Remember, what happened?"

"Can you help me find him by the way?" The Taoist priest looked young, but he figured out Gu Mian clearly, and he was the one who gave him this stone. Maybe the Taoist priest knew nothing. must.

Xie Xinyang frowned and said, "Why are you looking for him?"

Gu Mian knew that Xie Xinyang must be thinking wrong, and quickly said: "I don't want to teach him a lesson, he was so accurate last time, I just want to thank him, and by the way, ask him if he has any way to crack it, I really don't want to do anything his."

Xie Xinyang's expression softened a little, and he asked, "Do you remember his appearance?"

Gu Mian just wanted to say I remember!But when he recalled it carefully, he found it very vague, as if he clearly remembered this person clearly, but when he really said it, it was like a layer of paper was spread on this person's face, making it difficult to see clearly.

He turned his head, and said uncertainly: "I remember it vaguely, but if I see him again, I will definitely recognize him. Otherwise, you can help me find out where there are relatively famous Taoist priests, who are not very old."

Xie Xinyang felt that Gu Mian was a bit too stimulated, and he wanted to ask the Taoist priest to ask God, but he didn't refute it. As far as Gu Mian's description is concerned, he may not find news after ten years of searching: "That's good. Well, I'll ask someone to look for it, if you can remember what he looks like, you can tell me."

Gu Mian had no other choice but nodded.

The two were chatting, when Gu Mian's phone rang, and he remembered that he didn't call Song Qi when he stayed at Xie Xinyang's house overnight.

But he didn't want to talk to Song Qi. They haven't had a falling out yet, so it's impossible to hang up on his phone directly. Gu Mian threw the phone to Xie Xinyang and said, "Give me a reason, just say that I won't go back for a few days."

Xie Xinyang couldn't refuse this hot potato, so he had to find a reason for Gu Mian, and finally got Song Qi done.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Mian suddenly asked, "Old Xie, is your aunt's birthday coming soon?"

Xie Xinyang asked doubtfully, "Yes, how do you know?"

Gu Mian wanted to go to the Shen's house to meet Shen Xiuyan, so he had already thought up his words, he said: "When I called my brother yesterday, he told me that he asked me to go with him."

"What did he say?" Xie Xinyang asked.

"That's right." Gu Mian didn't know why Xie Xinyang didn't believe it, but he already knew the relationship between Xie Xinyang and Gu Zhi, so he would definitely not verify such a thing, and continued, "My brother said that Mrs. Shen likes to draw. , how about I pick a pair from the gallery and send it to her?"

I don't know that Gu Mian's words touched Xie Xinyang's nerves, he was stunned for a while before saying: "Oh, good."

Seeing that Gu Mian looked at him strangely, he quickly added: "My aunt learned to draw before, she will definitely like it if you send it to her!"
