Shen Xian looked up and the first thing he saw was Bai Mu who was serving food to the back table.

In a hurry, she couldn't tell who the person who called her just now was!

Is it Aunt Bai calling her?

If she was calling her, how should she explain to Gu Chen that the restaurant proprietress knew her?

Bai Mu's eyes looked very sad. She looked deeply at Shen Xian and hesitated to speak. She was very much like a mother who had been away for many years and saw her child.

"Shen Xian?"

There was another call, and this time Shen Xian knew clearly that it was Gu Chen calling her.

Gu Chen saw Shen Xian's face was solemn and staring dimly behind him. He followed her line of sight and happened to see Aunt Bai turning away with the menu.

"Mr. Gu, try this dish, it will be refreshing with your meal."

When Shen Xian came back to his senses, he was afraid that Gu Chen would see some clues, so he quickly diverted his attention.

"good."

When Gu Chen looked back, there was no difference. He looked at the dish Shen Xian was talking about and picked up two more chopsticks.

During this meal, Shen Xian didn't taste the food he ate.

Gu Chen always looked leisurely and enjoyed eating. From time to time, he would look at the people dining around him.

Shen Xian just thought it was his first time to eat in such a restaurant. He was a little curious and didn't think much about it.

After eating, Gu Chen went to settle the bill.

"I'm going to warm up the car first." Shen Xian told Gu Chen and walked past the checkout counter as if running away.

"Wait a moment!"

Behind her, a soft voice stopped her from leaving in a hurry.

Shen Xian stood still on the spot, clasping his hands tightly together, with complicated eyes, and did not turn around.

Gu Chen was scanning the code with his mobile phone when he heard the landlady calling Shen Xian and looked at the two of them strangely.

After a long time, Shen Xian turned around slowly, looked at Aunt Bai standing behind the cashier counter with strength and calmness, opened his mouth, and the familiar name lingered on the tip of his tongue.

She almost screamed.

Aunt Bai took a packed bag from the table nearby.

"Today we have an event in the store. If you spend more than 100 yuan, you can get a free gift of our unique flower pastries."

Aunt Bai's voice was still gentle, and her watery eyes flashed with emotions that Gu Chen couldn't understand.

Shen Xian watched her hand the bag in her hand to Gu Chen. The store's unique logo and unique packaging techniques were so familiar that her heart trembled.

"Oh, thank you."

Gu Chen took the bag, thanked him lightly, shook his phone and said, "Payment has been made."

Aunt Bai nodded, looked at Shen Xian and said, "Come again next time."

Shen Xian gritted her teeth. Someone behind her was about to enter, so she had to move her body.

The computer on the cashier counter blocked Aunt Bai's view, and she repeated, "Come here often!"

Shen Xian lowered his head and stopped looking at the person behind the computer. She didn't know how Aunt Bai felt when she said "Come often."

All she knew was that she wanted to find a place to cry.

really want.

Gu Chen just felt that the two of them were a little strange. What about their personnel?

Thinking like this, he glanced at Shen Xian's back as he hurried out of the store and followed him.

After getting in the car, Shen Xian silently started the car, reversed, turned the front of the car, and jumped into the traffic flow.

"Not to your liking?" Gu Chen asked.

Shen Xian stared straight ahead, his eyes looking a little fierce because he was too hard.

"It's too far, a waste of time." Her voice was cold and her expression was very distant.

The little doubt that originally arose in Gu Chen's heart was dispelled.

"I didn't know that Special Assistant Shen cherishes time like gold."

Gu Chen made a joke, then stopped talking and lowered his head to handle work matters on his mobile phone.

Overseas business has developed rapidly recently, and all his original plans have been realized one by one, which makes him feel happy.

The two of them returned to the company with their own emotions and moods.

Throughout the afternoon, Shen Xian's mood was surprisingly low.

Zhou Mu had always hoped that Shen Xian could go with him to visit Bai Xian's parents on New Year's Day.

Unexpectedly, Shen Xianhui, who had always refused, would reunite with the person she had avoided for three years in this way.

"Zhou Mu, I met Aunt Bai today. She...is much older..."

The call was from Zhou Mu. Shen Xian had been feeling overwhelmed. He originally wanted to find a time to chat with Zhou Mu, but he didn't expect Zhou Mu to call first.

"Well, I know, I just finished talking to Aunt Bai on the phone." Zhou Mu's voice sounded heavy, and he couldn't tell what his emotions were.

"She must be angry, right? My situation at the time didn't allow me to be with her..."

"Understood. Did you go with your boss?"

The words "your boss" seemed to come out of Zhou Mu's teeth.

"Well." Shen Xian stood up holding the phone and looked out the window, "I don't know why he suddenly wanted to eat Jiangnan cuisine today. What a coincidence, and he chose Jiangliu Restaurant."

Over there, Zhou Mu frowned, "Logically speaking, now that he knows your past experiences, he won't have too many doubts. Maybe it's just a coincidence?"

Shen Xian stretched out a finger and pressed it on the glass, tracing the shape of the clouds outside the window, "I hope so."

"So you are still unwilling to go and meet them on New Year's Day?" Zhou Mu was really looking forward to Shen Xian agreeing. In the past three years, they had mentioned Shen Xian to him more than once.

"They actually didn't blame you." Zhou Mu added.

"I won't be able to face them until the matter is clarified for a day. Zhou Mu, I will buy some gifts then, and you can help me bring them to them."

Shen Xian refused simply. If Aunt Bai could bring her her favorite dishes and pack her favorite pastries today, she would know that her Aunt Bai did not blame her.

But if they don't blame her, can she feel at ease and consider herself forgiven?

After chatting with Zhou Muqian about their New Year's Day holiday plans, the two hung up the phone.

She did not mention Qin Shi's double-sided accounts to Zhou Mu.

If he knew about this kind of workplace thing, not only could he not be able to help, but it would only cause more trouble.

After taking a look at the food packaging bags on the table, Shen Xian's mood dropped again.

"Shen Xian, your express delivery."

The door was pushed open from the outside, and Ma Qi stood at the door, throwing an express envelope in her hand over.

"Thank you." Before he finished speaking, the door was already closed.

It seemed that since Gu Chen gave her the expensive tea set last time, Ma Qi's attitude towards her had returned to the way it was when she first arrived.

That kind of disdain, contempt and why do you think so.

Shen Xian didn't care whether she was good or bad to her, she just wanted everything she wanted to do to go smoothly.

She didn't remember anyone knowing the address of her office. Who could have sent her the courier?

I took a look at the name on the cover of the express delivery, "Alaska"?

It looked like it was a pseudonym, and the shipping address was at the entrance of a shopping mall in this city.
