Chapter 251 I won't go home with you today
"This move has completely angered your second uncle."
The conference room quickly emptied out. Shen Xian looked at the seat where Gu Cheng had just sat and said to Gu Chen in a deep voice.
Gu Chen put his hand on the back of her hand, "Some things should be settled. You have waited for three years, and I have also waited for three years. Are you afraid?"
Shen Xian glanced at him, "Afraid, why aren't you afraid?"
Gu Chen chuckled. She said she was afraid, but there was no look of fear on her face.
When they returned to the 33rd floor, Wan Qi was still there.
She tidied up the things in Gu Chen's office very carefully. The drinking glasses and tea sets on the coffee table were all reset and moved to a position she thought was more suitable. She also tidied the small blanket on the sofa. It fell down and sprayed its own perfume on it.
At this moment, she was looking at a photo on Gu Chen's desk with a sad face and wiping tears.
Gu Chen smelled a strange smell as soon as he entered the room, and his eyes fell on the woman standing gracefully behind the desk.
Seeing Gu Chen come in, Wan Qi quickly turned her back to wipe her tears. Her fragile figure was crumbling, like a white peony swaying in the wind. The kiss of the spring breeze was about to be scattered, and she wanted to be hugged tightly.
"You haven't left yet?"
Gu Chen was a little surprised. He thought the reminiscing just now had come to an end.
"Achen, I'm sorry, I couldn't help crying again." She turned around. Although the tears on her face had been wiped away, her beautiful eyes were as clear and soft as if they had been washed with water. Gu Chen looked slightly apologetic.
Gu Chen said nothing and walked over to take a look at the photo she was staring at just now.
Above it was a photo of Gu Chen and his parents sitting on the garden lawn. It was a snapshot. The expressions of the three people were very natural and full of life.
Not far from them, there is a shepherd dog lying down. In the whole photo, it is the only one looking at the camera with its tongue hanging out very long. At first glance, it looks like it is smiling happily.
This shepherd dog is Wan Qi's pet dog. She has raised it since she was a child. She is so precious that she takes it with her wherever she goes.
"I didn't expect that you still keep this photo."
After Gu Chen came over, Wan Qi came a little closer and raised her hand to pick up the photos on the table.
"Do you still remember? I took this photo." A gentle smile appeared on Wan Qi's lips. She looked up at Gu Chen. Her height just reached Gu Chen's shoulders. She raised her head like this. , beautiful and delicate.
Gu Chen took the photo from her hand and looked at the faces of his parents on it with sad expressions on his face. This was one of the few photos he took with his parents.
"Look how happy we were back then." Wan Qi's voice seemed to open a glowing door, behind which were their shared, happy memories.
That day was an afternoon when the family had dinner together in their yard. Wan Qi was still dressed like a princess that day. She was studying photography at that time, so she took a camera with her wherever she went, and started taking pictures when she saw people she was interested in.
At that time, Gu Chen's mother also joked: "With such a beautiful person holding a camera, what kind of scenery can be photographed?"
Gu Chen, who was in high spirits at that time, laughed and said, "What kind of scenery do you need? Of course it's more interesting to take photos of handsome guys, isn't it?"
"That's not necessarily true. I think it's interesting to see beautiful women photographing beautiful women, isn't it, Auntie?" Wan Qi smiled brightly. As she spoke, she raised her camera and took a picture of Aunt Gu who was sitting under the umbrella. .
Mother Gu was so amused that the photos she took were happy and natural.
Wan Qi is beautiful and has a sweet mouth, and she is very good at making people happy. So Gu Chen’s mother likes her very much. She looked through the photos on the camera and said with emotion: "My photography skills are so good and she is so beautiful. I don’t know."
Which family can marry such a good wife?"
As Gu's mother spoke, she glanced at Gu Chen who was preparing food at that time.
"Auntie, you know how to tease me. I'm so happy now that I don't want to get married." Wan Qi smiled shyly and leaned against Gu's mother's arms, but her eyes secretly glanced at Gu Chen.
Gu Chen smiled and said nothing.
There were some things that they knew very well in their hearts. The two of them did not expose their thoughts. They were secretly happy in their hearts, as sweet as eating honey secretly, but they were afraid that this sweetness would be seen by others.
Under the sun, the scene of Wan Qi running on the lawn with her shepherd dog, the scene of her parents sitting together chatting and laughing, and the scene of Gu Chen rolling up the sleeves of his white shirt to prepare food for everyone, all the scenes are still as clear as
yesterday.
But in just three years, it seemed like they had spent most of their lives.
In the past three years, too many things have happened. They who could have walked hand in hand on the same track finally embarked on their own paths due to the trick of fate.
The forks in the road diverge further and further, and the road gets darker and darker...
Both of them fell into deep memories. After a long time, Wan Qi broke the silence. When she came back this time, she didn't just want to live in memories.
"Achen, I'm sorry. If I had known that something like that happened in your family, I would never leave you no matter what. Even if my parents think I am unfilial, even if I am an ungrateful daughter in the eyes of others, I
I will always stay with you and take care of you, so at least you won't be so sad, right?"
Wan Qi spoke sincerely, her beautiful eyes filled with tears as she looked up at Gu Chen's handsome face.
When it came to the emotional point, she raised her hand to touch Gu Chen's face.
Gu Chen came back to his senses, raised his hand to hold her hand to touch his, a hint of coldness and resistance flashed in his eyes.
At this moment, the office door was pushed open.
"go home……"
The conversation stopped suddenly when the scene inside the door was clearly seen. Shen Xian stood at the door, with his hand still on the door handle, looking at the two people standing together intimately with their hands clasped in surprise.
Gu Chen reacted first, let go of Wan Qi's hand, and took a step back.
"Why didn't you knock on the door?" he asked angrily.
Shen Xian's face was gloomy, neither unhappy nor happy, and he said in a cold voice: "I'm sorry, I have something urgent and I want to tell you that I won't go home with you today."
After saying that, Shen Xian turned around and left.
"Shen Xian!"
Gu Chen called out from behind, and just as he was about to catch up, someone hugged his waist from behind.
"Achen!"
Wan Qi hugged him with almost all her strength, and Gu Chen gave up after struggling twice.
"Wan Qi, let me go first."
This posture made him feel uncomfortable all over. He got his hands between Wan Qi's wrists around his waist, and tried to pull away, but she held her tighter.
"I won't let go, I won't let go, A-Chen, I don't want to let go." Wan Qi buried her face on Gu Chen's back, her voice was tense and she was straining her body, as if she was afraid that if she let go, Gu Chen would disappear.
Gu Chen stood stiffly on the spot. After struggling to no avail, he took off his glasses, rubbed the corners of his eyes, and said thoughtfully:
"I won't leave, please let me go first."
"real?"
"Um."
Gu Chen nodded, glanced helplessly at the hands on his waist, and gave up resistance.
