When the abusive male protagonist wakes up
Chapter 44 You Are Still Lying
Secretary Tong thought it made sense, so she gave the watch to Tang Li.
After the two parted at the entrance of the watch shop, Secretary Tong was about to go back to the company. While in the elevator, she received a call from her boss.
Gu Haoxing said on the phone: "Have you bought the gift yet?"
"Buy it." Secretary Tong replied over the phone.
Secretary Tong was about to tell his boss about meeting Tang Li in the mall, but Gu Haoxing said, "Then you go to my house later and give Tao An a gift."
Secretary Tong was stunned for a moment, "Is your gift for Mr. Tao?"
"Otherwise?" Gu Haoxing was a little dissatisfied with Secretary Tong's tone: "Who do you think I gave it to?"
Secretary Tong's back suddenly burst into cold sweat. She thought this watch was for Tang Li, but she didn't expect it to be the pregnant man with a big belly who was abandoned at home.
But why didn't Tang Li tell her the truth just now?
After waiting for Secretary Tong's response for a long time, Gu Haoxing said impatiently, "Did you hear what I said?"
"Listen...I heard it." Secretary Tong's legs were weak, "I'll send it to Mr. Tao right away."
Gu Haoxing hummed, and then hung up the phone in satisfaction.
After the call was over, Secretary Tong hurriedly contacted Tang Li without thinking about the delay.
The phone was connected after a while, and Secretary Tong said in a hurry: "Mr. Tang, I'm sorry, I made a mistake just now. Mr. Gu wanted to give that watch to... the customer. , are you still in the mall, I'll go find you now."
Tang Li sneered, "He bought it for Tao An, right?"
Secretary Tong unconsciously squeezed the phone tightly, and said falteringly, "You... how do you know?"
"I guessed it, and now the facts have confirmed my idea." Tang Li said coldly, the watch in his pocket was in danger of cracking at any time under the force of his jealousy.
Secretary Tong scolded herself for doing bad things with good intentions, "Mr. Tang, I only did what I was told. Please return the watch to me. I will give it to Mr. Tao as soon as possible."
Tang Li said without hesitation: "I won't give you the watch."
Secretary Tong wanted to cry, "Mr. Tang, we have no grievances or enmities, please don't hurt me like this. If Mr. Gu finds out, I won't be able to keep my job."
This watch is so expensive, she just put all her net worth on it to buy it.
A malicious smile appeared on the corner of Tang Li's mouth, "I can't give you the watch, but I can help you hide this from Haoxing. As long as you cooperate with me, I guarantee that Haoxing will not know the truth."
Secretary Tong is in trouble.
Seeing her silent for a long time, Tang Li's voice was slightly cold, "If you don't want to, then you can buy a new one for Tao An with your own money, don't try to provoke discord at Haoxing, even if he knows that I took the watch You won't blame me if you leave, but if you didn't do a good job, the end will not be much better."
Under coercion and temptation, Secretary Tong could only agree to Tang Li's request.
About an hour later, Secretary Tong returned to the company. She knocked on the door and walked into the office with a hesitant expression on her face, "Mr. Gu, I have already given the watch to Mr. Tao."
Gu Hao said without raising his head, "What's his reaction?"
Secretary Tong's words echoed in Tang Li's mind, and he said bravely, "Mr. Tao, he doesn't seem to like it very much."
Gu Haoxing frowned. He didn't expect Tao An to be so picky, so expensive, and he didn't like such an expensive watch?
"By the way, when I went to the villa, I saw a man there." Secretary Tong added.
Gu Haoxing frowned deeply, "A man?"
"Yes." Secretary Tong said more and more guilty, "It seems...it seems to be your younger brother."
Gu Haoxing suddenly clenched the pen in his hand, his voice suddenly sank, "Gu Xiao?"
Secretary Tong nodded: "Mr. Tao was very happy when he saw Mr. Gu. The two were talking and laughing. Mr. Tao even put the watch you gave him on Mr. Gu's hand."
Gu Haoxing's breathing became heavy, and Tao An actually gave the watch he gave him to Gu Xiao's illegitimate son?
He threw away the pen viciously, pulled the coat off the chair, and strode out of the office.
Gu Haoxing stepped on the gas pedal all the way back to the villa, he kicked the door open, and Tao An was sitting on the sofa staring at him blankly, with a bit of bewilderment in his surprised expression.
Gu Haoxing strode up to him, pinched Tao An's chin, and said in a deep voice, "Where is the watch I gave you?"
Tao An blinked blankly, "What watch?"
He never collected the watch......
"Keep pretending!" Gu Haoxing raised his voice and coaxed, "You fucking gave it to Gu Xiao, didn't you?"
Tao An looked at Gu Haoxing's furious expression with confused eyes, "Haoxing, I don't understand what you are talking about."
Tao An didn't understand why Hao Xing suddenly went home and lost his temper with him so much, but he could tell that the other party was in a very bad mood now, even worse than that day in the cemetery.
Such Gu Haoxing made Tao An inexplicably afraid.
Gu Haoxing gritted his teeth and said, "Where did you put the watch I asked Secretary Tong to give you?"
Tao An shook his head, "I didn't receive the watch."
Gu Haoxing was fed up with his pretending to be innocent, and threw Tao An onto the sofa with all his might, angrily said: "You continue to lie, Secretary Tong has seen it, you are talking and laughing with Gu Xiao, and you still want to lie to me!"
Tao An thought that Gu Haoxing knew about Gu Xiao's visit to him a few days ago, so he didn't dare to look up with guilt, and he grasped the corners of his clothes helplessly.
This faltering look made Gu Haoxing more sure that what Secretary Tong said was true.
Originally, he thought that he had forgotten Tao An's birthday, and felt guilty and wanted to make up for him with a gift, but Tao An turned around and gave his gift to someone else, and he chose to give it to Gu Xiao's illegitimate son.
"You just can't keep your memory, right? How many times have I emphasized to you that you are not allowed to meet him secretly again? If you insist on seeing him, you will be bumped into by outsiders. You are afraid that others will not know that you are so cheap and want to cheat on my brother." Is it the bed?"
Tao An's eardrums were hurt by Gu Haoxing's roar, he couldn't understand a word Haoxing said, what watch, what was given to Gu Xiao, he had never done such a thing.
"I didn't receive the watch." Tao An explained nervously, "I didn't give it to Gu Xiao either, really."
He didn't understand why Secretary Tong lied to others, since he obviously hadn't met anyone today.
"Then take out your watch and prove it to me!" Gu Haoxing's chest rose and fell violently, and his Adam's apple also rolled up and down.
As long as Tao An can get the watch he gave him, he will not pursue today's matter.
Tao An was stuck in a difficult situation, so he could only try his best to explain: "Hao Xing, I haven't seen Secretary Tong today, I have been staying at home, and I have always been alone."
"You're still lying!"
Gu Haoxing's brows twitched a few times, his eyes were red, like a furious beast, he was terrified to see, he grabbed the wool Tao An was still sewing and tore it in a mess, trying to vent his anger.
Tao An hurried over to stop him, begging: "Hao Xing, don't, this is for the baby..."
It took him a long time to save such a thing.
Gu Haoxing couldn't care less about Tao An's request, the anger of being ruined and betrayed washed away his sanity, he picked up the clothes sewn in the box and viciously tore them to shreds, threw them to his feet and stomped on them non-stop. This is to vent your anger.
Tao An's eyes were blurred, watching his more than half a month of painstaking efforts turn into a mass of garbage in an instant, he knelt on the ground weakly holding his pregnant belly, and tears fell on the carpet.
Why do you have to hurt him again and again like this?
Gu Haoxing felt a little regretful after doing all this, especially when he saw Tao An crying sadly, he also knew that he had done too much.
But how could he not be angry, he finally bought something to make Tao An happy, but in the end he borrowed flowers to present to Buddha.
"It's your own fault, you can't blame others." Gu Haoxing said bluntly, finding a suitable reason for his loss of control just now.
The sadness in Tao An's eyes was so heavy that even his lips turned pale. He lowered his head and held the wool that was torn by Gu Haoxing, and choked up and said; "I really didn't receive the watch, I really didn't... ..”
Seeing that Tao An didn't look like he was lying, even Gu Haoxing wasn't sure if he really misunderstood Tao An.
But Secretary Tong had no reason to lie, and it was even more impossible for him to have the guts to steal such a valuable watch. If Tao An really didn't receive the watch, something must have gone wrong.
"Okay, you said you didn't give my brother the watch, then let's go to him now, and the truth will be revealed!"
This is the best evidence to prove whether Tao An lied. Gu Haoxing pulled Tao An up from the ground, and the wool in his hand rolled all over the floor, just like their fragmented relationship.
Gu Haoxing dragged Tao An all the way to the car parked outside, stuffed him into the back seat, stepped on the accelerator and went to Gu Xiao's company.
At the same time, Gu Xiao received a courier.
There is no signature on the courier, not even the face-to-face information.
According to the secretary, it was delivered by a deliveryman running errands, and he left after putting down his things.
Gu Xiao opened the package suspiciously, and a velvet box fell out of the bag. When he opened it, there was a simple-designed men's watch lying inside.
There is also a note in the bag, the font looks like it was printed out by a printer, it is very neat, "Thank you for taking care of me before, this watch is a little of my heart, I hope you don't dislike it."
The signature in the lower right corner is Tao An.
Gu Xiao had a vague feeling that this watch was at least six figures, how could Tao An afford such an expensive watch?
Before he could figure out why Tao An suddenly gave him such an expensive watch, and where did he get so much money, the secretary came in from the outside in a panic, "Mr. Gu, your brother is here."
As soon as the words fell, the door of the office was kicked open, and Gu Haoxing dragged Tao An in, with a gloomy expression on his face.
After the two parted at the entrance of the watch shop, Secretary Tong was about to go back to the company. While in the elevator, she received a call from her boss.
Gu Haoxing said on the phone: "Have you bought the gift yet?"
"Buy it." Secretary Tong replied over the phone.
