Dead but not stiff

The next day, Gu Xien, who woke up on Shen Bai's bed, was in a trance for a moment. He didn't know what night it was. He stared at the inexplicably familiar crystal chandelier on the ceiling for a while, and after gradually regaining consciousness, he cursed secretly in his heart. With a bang, he lifted the quilt and got up and got out of bed.

His biological clock is fixed at six o'clock in the morning all year round, so Shen Bai, who is still sleeping on the sofa in the living room, does not know what he may face soon.

Gu Xien pushed open the bedroom door, walked over with light steps, and then saw someone who was 1.8 meters five nestled on the cheap sofa, sleeping very soundly.He hugged the pillow in his arms, and the quilt had already fallen to the floor, but fortunately, the nightgown was still firmly wrapped around his body, and there was no scene that was inappropriate for children.He personally nestled into a posture of "I'm very aggrieved, this sofa really doesn't sleep well" with his body, but it didn't affect his sleep quality. After listening carefully, he even let out a slight and rhythmic snoring sound .In fact, the sofa is quite big, but Shen Bai is used to sleeping on the big bed, and always rolls subconsciously in a daze. At this moment, it is already a miracle that people can still hang on the edge of the sofa properly.

Gu Xien walked over and kicked the legs of the sofa. The awakened Shen Bai hummed in his hoarse but yet magnetic voice and opened his eyes. He was stunned for a moment. He smiled instantly: "Are you awake? Did you sleep well last night?"

Gu Xi'en, who originally wanted to incriminate him, looked at the other party's face with a bright smile. He seemed to be hit by something for a moment, and his heart seemed to be wrapped in a warm sun for a moment, which made him a little at a loss for a while.

"Get up when you wake up. I need to trouble you to take me to the construction site today, Mr. Shen." Gu Xien's expression was flat and his tone was gentle, but Shen Bai still captured the compromising emotion that he deliberately hid in his eyes.

Shen Bai sat up straight, stretched his body, stood up and followed Gu Xien into the bathroom, leaned on the door frame and folded his arms and watched Tai Ruo naturally take out a toothbrush and put on toothpaste, and smiled slightly: "You are so familiar with the road, It makes me feel like I'm already an old couple with you."

The electric toothbrush buzzed, covering someone's voice directly. Gu Xien turned his head and glanced at him, temporarily unable to make a sound because of the toothpaste in his mouth, but for no reason let Shen Bai see it from the silent eyes. The meaning of refusal or welcome.He watched with interest Gu Xien brushing his teeth, rinsing his mouth, washing his face and wiping his face. Mr. Shen, who is usually very good at time management, wasted 5 minutes on this meaningless little thing this morning.

Can chasing after a wife be called a waste?

Gu Xien packed up his toiletries, leaned sideways and walked away from a certain door god, and said with a blank expression: "I've used it up, Mr. Shen, please go ahead."

Shen Bai walked to the sink in a good mood, and scratched his hair in front of the mirror. After a while, he suddenly remembered something, walked to the door of the bathroom, leaned out half of his body and asked, "You just said that you want me to take you to the construction site ?”

Gu Xien, who was halfway there, looked back at him: "If Mr. Shen is inconvenient—"

"Convenience, it must be convenient. But I have an emergency meeting with the other two directors of the company in the morning, why don't you go to the company with me first, and send you there after I'm done here? Anyway, it's the first day, it's okay to be late for a while. "An answer from Shen Bai, the real straight man of steel.

Gu Xian: "...then I'll take a taxi."

Shen Bai firmly refused to agree: "That won't work, I have to see you off. Just wait." After saying that, he walked out quickly, grabbed the mobile phone on the coffee table, and directly called the assistant.

As soon as the little assistant over there picked it up, he heard his boss slap his head and face: "Is the meeting in the morning scheduled for 08:30?"

The assistant didn't understand, so he answered yes, Mr. Shen, only to hear Shen Bai continue to say: "Tell them, just say that I am on a temporary business trip, and I can't be there. Change to a conference call."

Assistant:? ? ?What kind of business are you doing? How come I don't know about this itinerary?Is it another job, Mr. Shen?

Gu Xi'en, who was listening to the whole conversation at the side: Why hasn't the big boss of this company fired him yet?

After tidying up and coming out of the bedroom, Chen Bai saw Gu Xien who had also changed into formal clothes, and he could almost conclude that the other party must have secretly changed his clothes in the bathroom.Anyway, I will see it sooner or later, Shen Bai said to himself in his heart.

Today's Gu Xien changed into a pure black shirt with a gray cashmere cardigan on top, and the fine black trousers wrapped around his slender legs.It's just that two shirt buttons were still unbuttoned, and against the background of the dark-colored fabric, the exposed neck and collarbone looked even whiter and more attractive.

Shen Bai stared at his shirt collar, frowning: "Can you button it properly?"

Gu Xian was puzzled: "What?"

For the first time, Shen Bai realized that what he said was a bit too straight, and immediately changed his words: "Why don't you wear a tie? If you don't wear one, I have a lot here. You can pick whichever you like."

Gu Xien: "Are you sick? Are you not wearing a suit and tie?" He snapped his suitcase while talking, straightened up and said to Shen Bai: "Besides, I'm going to work, not to be an emcee. Is it important not to wear a tie?"

Shen Bai, who was dressed up specially, touched the tie under his neck, and asked very image-consciously: "Do I look like the master of ceremonies?"

Gu Xien looked at him, "No, you don't look like you, you look like Aunt Ba."

Until the two entered the elevator, the eighth aunt Shen Bai was still nagging, urging Gu Xien to button all his shirts.

"I understand it," Gu Xien retorted as he pressed the floor, "Do you think you can't accept little girls wearing short skirts when you walk on the street?"

Shen Bai replied incredulously: "The little girl wearing a short skirt doesn't hinder me, why can't I accept it?"

Gu Xi'en: "Then I have two missing buttons on my shirt, which hinders you? My mother doesn't care how I dress."

Shen Bai stretched out his hand and slammed Gu Xien against the elevator wall, looked into his eyes and said, "Then I will take care of it for Auntie."

The elevator stopped with a ding dong, and the door swung open, revealing Zhong Li's stunned face outside.

"Hi..." She stretched out her hand and waved awkwardly at the two, "You two are in such a good mood early in the morning, haha..."

Until Shen Bai drove a long way out of the community, neither of them spoke first.In the end, finally, Shen Bai couldn't help breaking the silence, and quietly announced a date: "October 10."

Gu Xian looked at him suspiciously, and heard him continue: "It's also today, the day we quarreled for the first time."

Gu Xian: "..."

Driving from the place where Shen Bai lives to the construction site where the project is located, the navigation prompts that it will take an hour and a half by car. At 08:30, Shen Bai puts on a Bluetooth headset and starts the pre-arranged conference call on time.Watching the other party and the person on the other end of the phone sometimes confronting each other, sometimes making jokes and laughing at Yan Yan, Gu Xien himself felt that he was fine.Until the words "bidding", "accompanying the bid", and "internal decision" began to appear in the content of the conversation, Gu Xien frowned and asked, "Is it okay for an outsider like me to hear your company's high-level meeting?"

Shen Bai, who was trying to use his own point of view to kill the opposing point of view, did not ignore Gu Xien's voice, and replied casually: "What does it matter, you don't understand."

Gu Xien clenched his fists, "Oh, really? I'm the chief construction engineer of Mr. Shen's project now."

"Oh," Shen Bai seemed to have just realized it. He pressed the Bluetooth headset with one hand, leaned closer and said to Gu Xien in a low voice: "Then what should I do? You heard the secret, so I can only execute you on the spot." gone."

Gu Xien: "...Where did you learn all these coquettish words? Are you really not the king of guns?"

The black Cayenne parked steadily next to the only two commercial vehicles within a few miles. Shen Bai and Gu Xien got out of the car and walked towards the construction site not far away.This land was originally an abandoned factory, and the original factory had been relocated long ago, so it was rebuilt by the government through recycling and tendering.The previous buildings had to be demolished first, and new buildings planned. When the two of them arrived, they could see workers coming and going to transport the reinforced concrete. There was a strong smell of dust in the air, and their ears were filled with The harsh sound of various construction equipment operating.

Manager Liu, who was wearing a hard hat, saw the two of them approaching from a distance, and trotted up to meet them. When he saw clearly that the person following Gu Xien was actually Shen Bai, he was flattered.

"Mr. Shen, why are you here?" Xiao Liu wanted to reach out his hand to scratch his head in a moment of excitement, but what he touched was the hard helmet shell, which reminded him, and hurried back to get two helmets Came over and handed it to the two of them. "

"Look around casually, go get busy." Shen Bai waved his hand at the other party, with a hint of being disturbed in his tone.

"Ah?" Xiao Liu was slightly stunned, and then said without vision: "Then Mr. Shen, you can go around casually, I took Gu Gong to the project team, and Xiao Li has a few issues that need to be discussed with Gu Gong. "

Shen Bai: "..."

Xiao Li is the one who was complained about by his colleagues before. He is the construction engineer of the Shenbai company team. Although he has the same position, he is divided into two companies. They have different positions and different responsibilities. Disagreement on related issues is also common. thing.

Shen Bai, who wandered around casually, followed Manager Liu and Gu Xien, and went straight to the temporary project team office. The group of people inside seemed a little uneasy about the sudden airborne landing of the big leader. Manager Liu shouted at everyone in order to encourage people: "Mr. Shen has a lot of opportunities every day, and he came here to care about everyone's work. Although he didn't bring condolences, everyone must feel this friendship."

Shen Bai: Xiao Liu, please shut up.

That engineer Li was standing in front of a whiteboard with a design drawing spread out on the table in front of him. When he saw Gu Xien coming in, he quickly greeted him: "Gu Gong, I've waited for you. I have a few questions from my side." , look here."

Shen Bai followed and looked at the design drawing together. He couldn't see why, he only knew how much profit the design could generate in the next few years after the things in the design were moved from the paper to the ground. .

Gu Xien started a discussion with Li Gong on the contents of the drawing, and Shen Bai stood beside him, not feeling bored.

The so-called beauty is in front of you, looking at the plum blossoms to quench your thirst is not a pleasure.

There is a saying that a man is the most handsome when he works hard, but Chen Bai thinks that Gu Xien is really damn good-looking when he works hard.

His speech is very orderly, and he speaks in a leisurely manner, and his voice is soft and beautiful, even if it is the opponent who holds a different opinion with him, he will not want to interrupt him halfway to refute.

After Gu Xien finished discussing with Li Gong, it was time for lunch before he knew it, and the project team ordered takeaway, but the place is too remote, there are not many choices, and when they are delivered, they are mostly cold dishes and cold meals. It's hard to swallow.

Shen Bai lifted the lid and took a look, and his appetite was reduced by more than half. He turned his head and saw that Gu Xien had already taken a mouthful of rice in his mouth, and he couldn't bear to say: "Why don't we go out and eat something else."

Gu Xi'en chewed his rice, and said slowly: "No, it's good. Those of us who work with engineering have long been used to it."

Shen Bai stared at the boxed lunch in Gu Xien's hand, and his tone was full of disbelief, "This clear soup is less oily, why do you eat it so deliciously? Is yours particularly delicious? Let me taste it." As he spoke, he had already Picking up the chopsticks, he reached into Gu Xien's lunch box, picked up a piece of soy sauce-colored sweet and sour meat, put it in his mouth, chewed it twice and swallowed it.

"Is it delicious?" Gu Xien blinked and asked him.

"No." Shen Bai gave an evaluation very honestly.

Other members of the project team: How did these two people gain weight?The atmosphere is weird, no, gay.

Just after lunch, Shen Bai's mobile phone was repeatedly bombarded by the assistant's life-threatening serial calls, and finally he had to leave first.

"I'll pick you up after work." Shen Bai reluctantly said to Gu Xi'en.

"Mr. Shen, you don't need to trouble, the two commercial vehicles that sent us here are both eight-seaters, and they can fit in a squeeze." Gengzhi Xiao Liu frantically tried on the verge of being fired.

Gu Xien resisted the urge to laugh out loud, but he did not forget to pour cold water on him: "No need, I already booked a room at that hotel last night, now I'll go to the car with you to get your luggage, and I'll go back to the hotel with everyone after get off work in the evening gone."

Shen Bai glared at Xiao Liu, turned to Gu Xien in the other's terrified expression, and said helplessly and dejectedly: "Okay, but you don't have to make a trip, I'll just go to the car and get your luggage. You and Xiao Li Isn't there still a problem to continue the discussion?" As he spoke, he raised his eyes and gave Xiao Li a wink, and Xiao Li was immediately blessed, and quickly answered the phone: "Yes, yes, Gu Gong, let's continue, and strive to finish today's affairs today! "

Shen Bai considered the possibility of replacing Xiao Li with the project manager, and said to Gu Xi'en, "Go get busy, work is important."

Gu Xi'en glanced at him, always feeling that something was wrong, but he couldn't hold back Xiao Li's strong thirst for knowledge, so he put the strange thought behind him.

Shen Bai strode out of the construction site, quickly opened the car door and sat in, started the engine and stepped on the accelerator, and left in a hurry.

Ten minutes later, he received a call from Gu Xien, and it was the first time he heard this person yell: "Shen Bai, where the hell are you, where is my luggage?"

The author has something to say:

Catch the thief, catch the thief, the luggage thief!
