Gu Shang must have held back what he said today for a long time, or it may be that he was under too much pressure from work, so he confided these things to me.

It's not the first time I've been the other party's tree hole. As before, I accepted it completely as always, and I didn't forget to observe the strangeness in the end.

Having said that, in fact, after returning home at night, Gu Shang didn't mention this matter at all.

I didn't intend to take the initiative to ask, so as not to encounter the other party's Nilin.To be honest, although I always complain that this person has an unstable temper, Gu Shang is in good condition in all aspects.

If he wasn't crooked, if he wasn't so infatuated, probably the list of candidates could be printed in a booklet.

Gu Shang's words today cannot be separated from the words Xu Xiaomo, which shows how much the boss never forgets his Bai Yueguang.

Even Bai Yueguang dismissed him.

I suddenly felt a sense of sympathy for each other. I have also experienced secret love, but what is better than Gu Shang is that when I walked out, Gu Shang was still struggling in the mud.

Thinking of this, I sighed.

"Why are you moaning?"

I looked back and found that Gu Shang was standing at the door of the kitchen at some point.

"Too tired to go to work." I replied.

Gu Shang snorted, opened the refrigerator and took a bottle of yogurt, walked to the door and said, "Don't forget to make more carrots for dinner."

I:"……"

Didn't he hear me say I'm tired from work?

At the dinner table, Gu Shang ate carrots with relish, and as before, he did not forget to pick them into my bowl one by one with chopsticks.

I looked at the slender, red thing and fell into deep thought.

When I first moved in, I didn't realize that the benefactor is an infatuated kind. I would think that men like to eat, even if I hate it, I endured it. After all, the other party gave it to me.

In the first meal after discovering the existence of Bai Yueguang, I did not fry carrots for the first time.

When Gu Shang found out, his face darkened as expected, and he asked me: Can I fry another carrot.

I pretended to be surprised and said that you live on carrots.

The man didn't respond to my jokes like he used to.His tone was a little cold, and he insisted: You go.

It was also at that moment that I was disheartened and no longer had expectations.

I wrote on the page of praising the moonlight: Is it because you eat carrots that your skin is so good.

Then I thought about it, and added a sour sentence: You know, he eats carrots every day for you.

"It will be cold if I don't eat any more." Gu Shang stretched out his chopsticks and tapped on the side of my bowl.

I nodded and concentrated on eating.Swallowing it in big gulps, as if trying to fill something with it.

……

……

The past few days have been uneventful, not only Gu Shang returned to normal, even Xu Xiaomo never appeared again.Although I unilaterally avoided contact with him, I thought that at least we would have a "farewell ceremony" or something, and even if there wasn't, the other party should come to ask a few words, right?

However none.

After I handed the book to Li Xing, I waited anxiously for a few days, but there was no movement from the other party.Neither came to see me nor appeared in the elevator again.

I used to think that Xu Xiaomo cared about me very much, and I had a good impression of him, but now it seems that it is just my imagination.

When I think of the fox that the man hangs on his mobile phone in a proper manner, I feel a little bit uneasy.

I thought I had solved one thing, but it became more entangled.

In the blink of an eye, it's the end of the year.The cold winter came, and the temperature became colder than before. When the seasons changed, I had a runny nose again, not surprisingly.

Gu Shang said on the weekend that he would take me to the hospital, it might be rhinitis.I said even if it is, it can't be cured.

In the end, we still didn't go, because Gu Shang was called away before we arrived at the hospital.

Gu Shang was driving at that time, I sat in the co-pilot and helped him get through the phone.The content of the phone call was released directly.

The words of the contract were spoken on the other end, and then I heard the word Mr. Xu, and then, the voice disappeared completely.

I froze for a moment, then heard Gu Shang's voice again, only to realize that the phone had been switched back to the bluetooth headset mode.

After that, Gu Shang sent me back to the apartment and drove away in a hurry.

I thought to myself, he knew that Xu Xiaomo was here too.

Gu Shang didn't go home that night, and he didn't inform him in advance.I waited for a while, put the food back in the refrigerator, and went back to my room to sleep.

I didn't ask Gu Shang, and Gu Shang didn't mention it.I remember our conversation at that time, he said he would give it a go.

I think this may also include pursuing his love.

……

I have never recovered from a cold, but fortunately, my colleagues have no complaints, and there are boxes and boxes of medicines piled up on my desk.I was grateful, and after thinking about it, I still wore a mask.

Sometimes I still go downstairs to get some air and blow my nose along the way.Every time I stand in the elevator, I will think of the day when I met Xu Xiaomo at the company.

When chatting with my colleagues at the back table, I pretended to mention Xu Xiaomo's name casually.

The girls in the same group are very familiar with me, and they can speak freely.

When I asked Xu Xiaomo, there were two bright lights in her eyes, "You mean Mr. Xu, right? But I only saw him once at the annual meeting. His appearance is really amazing, as exquisite as a Japanese porcelain Human-like..."

Then she stopped as if remembering something. She took a serious look at me and said, "But you are also very good-looking, and you have a very delicate face."

I subconsciously pulled the mask up, for fear that the other party would say something like you two are very similar.

But the girl is just worried that I may hear pantothenic acid.

"Do you men not like to hear us praise other men for being handsome, strong, etc.?" My colleague asked me seriously.

I couldn't laugh or cry, I shook my head and said, "It's nothing."

"That's good," the colleague continued, "But then again, why did you suddenly ask Mr. Xu?"

"Ah?" I paused, and laughed casually, "Didn't you never see what the CEO looks like before? I thought he was a very rigid old man, haha..."

After listening to my colleague, he didn't smile with me, but winked at me.

I found her looking behind me and panicked, let alone the manager.

Fortunately among the misfortunes, the person who came was not the manager, but Li Xing, whom I hadn't seen for a long time.

Li Xing was standing next to my chair, I don't know if I heard it, no, it should be said that I don't know how much I heard...

The expression on Li Xing's face was a bit strange, he pursed his lips, feeling like a half-smile.

The colleague greeted me, Li Xing nodded, and then turned his attention to me.

He said, "Ling Jingchuan, the boss has something to do with you."

I was stunned, "Who?"

"My boss." Li Xing said helplessly, "President Xu."

I thought to myself, crap, of course I know.

I didn't care to respond to my colleague's surprised gaze, after all, I was also in doubt.

What does Xu Xiaomo want from me?

It's not just chatting, is it?

isn't it?

Could it be that he is really interested in me?

My brain was in a mess, and I couldn't even hear what Li Xing said until Li Xing slapped my back.

"Jing Chuan!" Seeing me come back to his senses, he breathed a sigh of relief, "I thought you were sleepwalking."

I forced a smile at him, sleepwalking is not the case, but it is true that I am about to lose my mind.

I thought being called up by Xu Xiaomo was the scariest thing today, but I didn't expect that there would be an episode while waiting for the elevator.

I ran into my ex-colleague, my ex-boss to be precise.

The elevator stopped halfway, at 26. When I saw this number, I panicked, but then I comforted myself that it was not such a coincidence.

After seeing the person who came in in the next second, and after realizing that the person was someone I knew before and could never get to know again, my heart was completely chilled.

After all, he is in charge of the personnel department, and he caused trouble in his department before.Even with a mask on my face, the other party recognized me at a glance. He looked at me in disbelief, "Ling Jingchuan? Why are you here?"

Li Xing looked at us with some doubts, the manager noticed Li Xing, greeted him and explained: "He worked in my department before."

Li Xing nodded without asking further questions.

The manager looked back at me again, and I lowered my head, not really wanting to look up at him.

The manager is a middle-aged man in his 40s. He is serious when his face is expressionless, and even worse when he frowns.During the work, what I was most afraid of was the stern and contemptuous gaze.

Just because you can't see it doesn't mean you can't hear it. I heard the other person's voice: "Are you working here again now?"

I said yes.

"So who are you now?" he asked again.

Li Xing answered for me, "The boss is looking for him."

After the other party finished listening, his tone suddenly became a little displeased, "It's such a big fuss?"

"You won't cause any trouble again, will you? This time it will affect the whole company?"

I paused, and before I could think of an answer, the elevator arrived, and the other party didn't wait for my response, greeted Li Xing in a regular manner, and then left the elevator one step ahead.

Seeing that person walking away, I completely relaxed and stretched out my hands to rub my neck.Li Xing kept staring at me with worry written on his face.Seeing this, I couldn't help laughing, and said, "It's okay, it's just that I wasn't serious about going to work before."

He groaned, and said casually, "So you used to work here?"

I nodded, as a default.

Compared with the people and things before, I am more entangled with Xu Xiaomo now.I couldn't figure out what he wanted to do and why he asked me to come up.

Li Xing led me through a corridor, and then stopped in front of a door.He said: "You push the door and go in, I have to go back to work."

I stared at the heavy-looking double doors in front of me, and inappropriately thought of the scenes of domineering presidents I saw online.The president called the heroine into the office, just like the current situation.

I couldn't help swallowing, "Li Xing, come with me in..."

"I still have to go to work." Li Xing struggled, then lowered his voice, "I don't really want to see the face of the boss."

"You don't know, my boss looks like that in the company, his face looks like that..."

"Dead face?" I blurted out.

Li Xing patted me on the shoulder, "You said it yourself."

I:"……"

In the end, Li Xing accompanied me in very morally.I followed him in, and found that the decoration here was not as gorgeous as I imagined, on the contrary, it was a bit too simple.The room is black and white, lifeless, adding to the atmosphere of not disturbing strangers.

Especially the man in the black suit behind the desk.

Xu Xiaomo was leaning back on the chair expressionlessly, staring at the phone, his usually indifferent face was frowning even more at this moment, obviously in a bad mood.

I heard Li Xing hiss lightly, and then said: "Boss, I called someone up."

With that cautious tone, it seemed that what we were facing was not the boss, but a gang leader.After a while, the triad boss put down his cell phone and looked up at us like alms.

It had been a long time since I saw him, but Xu Xiaomo was still the same as he remembered, with a cold face full of emotions, wearing a serious suit, and the phone in his hand was still hung with the prominent fox.

The other party is still hanging on this thing...

When I saw that fox, I lost my mind and didn't even notice when Li Xing left.When I came back to my senses, Xu Xiaomo in front of me had already made a phone call.

While listening to the phone, he waved to me.I walked over puzzled, and saw the man make a mouth shape, motioning for me to sit first.

So I sat tremblingly on the sofa beside me, waiting for Xu Xiaomo to finish the call.I didn't bring my phone upstairs, so I just counted the clocks on the wall idly.

Half an hour passed, and just when I felt like I was about to germinate if I sat down again, Xu Xiaomo finally hung up the phone.I heard the other party say goodbye, and looked at him with joy in my heart.

The other party should have just thought of me, and he met my eyes as soon as he raised his head. He looked at me and frowned: "What are you happy about?"

I wondered if it was so obvious, and subconsciously touched my face.Then I heard the sound of the chair being pulled away, and looked up to find that the man had come to me.He sat down beside me and handed me a glass of water.

The man's bony hands were as white as his face, and it was hard not to notice the silver ring on the other's ring finger.

I was shocked. I haven't seen him for a few days. Is this person married?

Wait, is it possible that Xu Xiaomo is straight?

The more I thought about it, the more I felt that this was the case. Before, I thought this person was interested in me, but later I realized how could the other party's conditions value me.However, when I saw the ring today, I realized that I might really be thinking too much.

Also, if Xu Xiaomo got married, what would Gu Shang do?The gold master eats carrots every day, and he is almost perfect. It seems that he doesn't know it.

"What's the matter?" Seeing that I hadn't moved for a long time, the other party asked aloud, "Why didn't you speak?"

I took the cup, glanced at the ring, then at Xu Xiaomo, "Are you married?"

Xu Xiaomo frowned, "What are you talking about?"

I hesitated for a moment, "Isn't that your wedding ring..."

After Xu Xiaomo heard this, a rare look of hesitation appeared on his face.

Is not it?I was even more puzzled when I saw this.

After a while, Xu Xiaomo shook his head lightly, "It's not a wedding ring."

He touched the ring on his hand, and then asked as if thinking of something: "Do you want to take a look?"

The other party's tone was a bit weird, and I remembered the habit of some people who like to talk ironically when they are upset.Xu Xiaomo probably felt that my question was too offensive, so he asked this sentence in a dark way, right?

So without hesitation, I said no.

Unexpectedly, the other party's complexion changed at a visible speed.But just for a moment, the man's brows relaxed again, and his calm face was restored.
