She Can Also Be Gentle - Chapter 79

“I took the little biscuits I baked to the company. He obviously had a terrible toothache, so he still ate several pieces.”

“The lock on the desk is broken, and he helped me replace it with a new one without saying a word.”

“Said you can’t button the cufflinks, let me help him. What I have to button every day, suddenly I can’t button it?”

“It was yesterday. It was supposed to be my job. He did it for me without saying a word. I said thank him for inviting him to dinner, but he booked a restaurant with a super atmosphere in advance, so I went to the bathroom. When I left the restaurant, a few children ran around and almost bumped into me. He pulled me aside—it was my hand! Doesn’t this mean holding hands?”

Xu Dan said a lot like he poured beans: “…You guys tell me, he is teasing me, right?”

Every time Xu Dan said something, Chi Nuan recalled something similar to Gu Ningzi’s, so the more I listened to it, the more subtle it became…Is this teasing? Why didn’t she think about it at all when these things happened? Is she too slow or Xu Dan’s brain supplement is too serious?

Xu Dan said in distress, “My boyfriend and I have a good relationship. What should I do to make my colleague give up? He is always like this. I am also embarrassed. For a company, everyone can see you without looking up.”

Du Min laughed and said: “Your question is too superb, and no one has confessed it. You just wondered how to make people give up. What if it’s an oolong?”

“…” Xu Dan, who didn’t get approval from Du Min, sought Chi Nuan’s opinion: “Nuan Nuan, do you think my colleague is teasing me?”

Chi Nuan inserted his backhand into his hair and stroked it slowly. She herself was at a loss, and she didn’t know how to answer Xu Dan at all.

Du Min said: “Hey, don’t worry about teasing. Anyway, you are not going to think about him, so just stay cold. If he wants to tease you, he will give up if he doesn’t want to tease you…. Besides, you have a man. My friend, he still flirts, isn’t this weird in itself?”

After the afternoon tea time was over, the three said goodbye to each other. After leaving the shopping mall building, Chi Nuan realized that it was raining outside.

Chi Nuan was going to buy books at a nearby bookstore. Gu Ningzi called her: “Do you have time now?”

Chi Nuan immediately replied, “Yes.”

Gu Ningzi: “Come and pick me up, I will send you the address.”

Chi Nuan: “Okay.”

After hanging up the phone, Gu Ningzi’s message appeared on the screen immediately.

Gu Ningzi made an appointment with investors to play tennis in the afternoon. He said that he was playing tennis. It was actually an informal project report. He Zhen prepared a lot of materials to follow the schedule. Chi Nuan thought she was going to the clubhouse to pick up Gu Ningzi, but she didn’t expect that the address she sent was at the auction house near the Yuncheng Antiques District.

Chun Yu knocked on the car window, and Chi Nuan arrived within half an hour. Across the rain curtain, Gu Ningzi stood under the antique eaves, black shirt and beige windbreaker, her black hair hanging down her shoulders, and she embraced a slender wooden box.

Chi Nuan held up an umbrella and went to pick her up in the rain.

Gu Ningzi took the umbrella handle from Chi Nuan, and Chi Nuan gestured to hold the wooden box. Gu Ningzi said softly, “No, I’ll come.”

Chi Nuan had to give up. The two walked into the rain next to each other. She asked Gu Ningzi, “Didn’t you go to play tennis? Why come here?”

Gu Ningzi said: “Everyone has business, it ends early.”

After a pause, he said, “Come and fetch things, walking stick, for grandpa.”

Chi Nuan nodded: “Oh.”

When he got to the car, Chi Nuan opened the rear door and took the umbrella so that Gu Ningzi could get in the car first. When Gu Ningzi turned around, Chi Nuan realized that after walking all the way, a large area of ​​Gu Ningzi’s back clothes had been drenched in the rain.

The wheel ran over the white line area of ​​the parking, Chi Nuan couldn’t help but look at Gu Ningzi from the rearview mirror. Gu Ningzi took off her half-wet windbreaker, and was lowering her head to pull the sleeves of her shirt.

“I know I’m good-looking,” Gu Ningzi said casually, “but I’m still looking at the road now, what do you think?”

Chi Nuan: “…”

She didn’t even look up, how could she know she was peeking at her! ? What kind of magical ability is this… Chi Nuan controlled her eyes and stared at the road ahead: “…Where are we going now?”

Gu Ningzi silently pulled her lips: “Gu Zhai.”

The rain gradually decreased, and the sun came out from the clouds again, and it was only a blink of an eye, and the sun soon set in the mountains.

When Chi Nuan sent Gu Ningzi to Gu’s house, her clothes were fragrant and her temples looked like she was hosting a banquet. Gu Ningzi said to Chi Nuan, “It won’t be long, wait for me.”

Chi Nuan responded: “Okay.”

Just before getting off the car, Gu Ningzi asked again: “Would you like to go in with me?”

Chi Nuan said without hesitation: “No, I’ll wait for you outside.”

Gu Ningzi turned her eyes to look at Chi Nuan, and got out of the car holding the wooden box.

Chi Nuan found a place to park nearby, and the mobile phone message prompt sounded twice. Xu Dan was sending a message in the five-person friendly group.

Xu Dan: “[Smile]”

Xu Dan: “It’s so angry that it bursts [smile][smiles][smiles]”

Chi Nuan returned to her: “What happened?”

The interface of the chat window was instantly replaced by Xu Dan’s caller ID. As soon as Chi Nuanfu connected, Xu Dan roared at the phone like a frying cat with its tail stepped on, “It’s too funny! You said this man is sick!?”

Chi Nuan said in surprise: “…if you have something to say, what’s the matter?”

Xu Dan was like a gunfire: “The toothache still eats biscuits because I like sweets. I asked me to help button the cuffs because my finger was cut on the A4 paper. It is inconvenient. Get close to me, get close to me, do me a favor, invite me to dinner, all because you want to chase my cousin!”

This is too fascinating, Chi Nuan was stunned: “Watch, cousin?”

Xu Dan: “Yes! Cousin! Last time at the company dinner, my cousin and some of her friends were also in the hot pot restaurant. He said that he caught her at a glance!”

Chi Nuan turned around and said, “…Did you make it clear to him? Didn’t you just say you want to deal with it coldly?”

Xu Dan gritted his teeth and said: “It rained just now, didn’t he not have an umbrella? I drove him to the platform. He was tall and he was holding the umbrella. After he was finished, he knew that he half of his body was to prevent me from getting rain. It’s all getting wet… You say Nuan Nuan, you say, under this situation, how do I feel when I look at it? I couldn’t hold back on the spot and asked him why he was so good to me.”

“…” Chi Nuan took a breath.

Xu Dan’s voice sounded, and he was on the verge of collapse: “Do you know what he said? He said, Xu Dan, I have been waiting for you to ask me this sentence. How dare to let him continue and explain to him that he has a boyfriend. It is better for everyone to keep a distance in the future. Thank him for taking care of him during this period of time. It turned out to be good. The old **** is saying that I have misunderstood. He wants to chase after my cousin, wanting me to lead him! Nuannuan, have you ever seen such a joke? Has he ever thought about where to put my face? Co-authoring is my own love? I will pull the thread, pull the thread? Where can you stay cool, where will you go!!!”

Chi Nuan: “…”

It turned out that it was really just an oolong when Du Min expected it. Xu Dan was embarrassed and turned into anger. Chi Nuan seemed to have experienced an oolong of his own, feeling unspeakably melancholy.

So those guesses about whether it’s “fuck” are just over-braining…

Before we finished talking with Xu Dan, Gu Ningzi cut in on the phone again and asked where Chi Nuan was. Chi Nuan hurriedly ended the chat with Xu Dan and drove over to pick up Gu Ningzi.

The car lights illuminated the low stone steps. There was a little girl in a modified Hanfu with a double-ball head hopping around on the steps.

Gu Ningzi stood in front of the steps and talked to others.

At the beginning of April, there was still a bit of cold at night. The woman who was talking to Gu Ningzi was wearing a cheongsam, with a tassel shawl loosely draped on her shoulders: “Aning, you just listen to me once, okay?”

“…”

As if falling into the ice and snow, all blood was frozen. Chi Nuan squeezed the steering wheel, and it took a lot of effort to not run away at the moment when he saw Gu Miaoyan.

Fear.

She was afraid of Gu Ningzi’s family from the bottom of her heart, so when Gu Ningzi asked whether to go in together, she refused. The Chengjia, who was afraid of taking Gu Ningzi away from her, over the years, the impoverished imagination of the Chengjia, made Gu Miaoyan’s smiling face and gentle voice the beginning of all her nightmares.

Gu Ningzi got into the car.

Gu Miaoyan led the little girl: “Edamame, come and see you auntie. — Assistant He, it’s been a long time.”

Chi Nuan’s hands were covered in cold sweat, and she tried to draw a stiff smile: “Hello.”

Gu Miaoyan thought He Zhen was driving. When he saw Chi Nuan, he was startled and said, “…Hello.”

“Auntie, goodbye.” Mao Doudou’s voice awakened Gu Miaoyan. She took a half step back and waved goodbye to Gu Ningzi: “Aning, see you later.”

Chi Nuan’s feet softened. After stepping on it a few times, she took the gas pedal and drove the car out of Gu’s house. She asked Gu Ningzi, “Where are we going?”

Gu Ningzi said, “Go home.”

Don’t be afraid, don’t be afraid… Chi Nuan kept telling herself that they were no longer when they were young, would Chengjia do anything bad again because she is now Gu Ningzi’s assistant? …No, it’s been six years, she finally met Gu Ningzi.

All kinds of messy thoughts flooded in, Chi Nuan was frightened, and her heart was so heavy that she wanted to cry bitterly.

The dazzling car lights kept flashing, and the oncoming vehicle honked its horn. Chi Nuan suddenly found that he had driven into the reverse lane and turned sharply to avoid it, but almost ran into the following vehicle.

The horns and curses rang together, and the brakes were put into gear after warming up, and he was too scared to move.

Gu Ningzi immediately got out of the car, opened the door of the driver’s seat, Chi Nuan raised her red eyes: “Sorry, Gu Ningzi, I am lost, sorry… almost had a car accident, sorry…”

Gu Ningzi’s face was also a little pale, and she said, “Let me open it.”

Chi Nuan got out of the car, her weak legs were unable to support her walking, and Gu Ningzi responded very quickly to support her.

“Don’t be afraid, it’s okay.”

Gu Ningzi’s voice had a calming effect, Chi Nuan took a deep breath, and the moment the tears rushed out, she buried her in Gu Ningzi’s arms and hugged her tightly.
