Chapter 69

On the day Gu Chixi returned from the capital, Luo Qian was taken away by the police.

She watched him get into the police car, and her malicious eyes wished she could be eaten alive, but there was a weird smile on the corner of her mouth, which made people chill. When passing by, he only whispered: “Many people want you to die.”

Gu Chixi’s expression was light, watching the police car go away.

She was not surprised at all.

When she was very young, she lived in the shadow of death. Although she did not really die, she was also threatened a lot. Those people, who could not kill her in the past, will not be able to kill her in the future.

She wanted to understand something.

Luo Qian may have learned about her life experience from Wang Liya’s mouth, knowing that she was not at odds with the Gu family, and that she came by “airborne” only alone, without foreign aid. Otherwise, if she is a real “eldest daughter” or “connected household”, this person may not feel that she is in the way, and it is too late to curry favor.

In the beginning, Luo Qian was indeed trying to please her, but after learning something, her attitude changed subtly.

Probably around July of this year.

Gu Chixi clarified the time line, and the ins and outs of the matter became clearer.

Zou Ming went in, and Luo Qian was fast too. In just half a year, the company lost two generals. From another perspective, the loss was not small, and who to promote remains to be considered.

She talked to Wen Ning about it.

At 7:30 in the evening, Gu Chixi was still in the office. Wen Ning returned from the flight, went to the cafeteria to pack four dishes and brought them upstairs. The two sat at the table in the lounge and talked and ate together.

“What do you think of my master?” Wen Ning put forward an idea halfway through.

“He came a year later than Luo Qian, and his qualifications are older than Luo Qian, and he can be regarded as watching the company grow. I feel that he is very good and responsible, but it is the director of the flight department, who seems to care about everything. …”

Gu Chixi took a piece of cauliflower for her and said with a smile, “Is this the apprentice selling the master?”

“Don’t—” Wen Ning rejected Cauliflower, “Because besides you in the company, I only contact my master a little more, and I don’t know anyone else. Just say it casually, and in the end, it’s up to you to decide.”

Gu Chixi put the cauliflower back into his bowl again, and accidentally took a piece of boiled meat from her bowl, “Well, think about it for now.”

Wen Ning raised her eyebrows, suddenly became playful, and gave her a bean sprout as a side dish – this is Gu Chixi’s least favorite food.

Sure enough, she shook her head.

Wen Ning still put the bean sprouts in her bowl, but in the next second, she took it along with the piece of chicken wings, put it in her bowl, and smiled smugly.

Like only stealing. Fishy successful kitten.

Gu Chixi held back a smile and put the last chicken wing in the lunch box into her bowl, “All for my wife.”

“Just kidding—” Wen Ning clipped it back to her.

Recently, Gu Chixi was busy and went home very late, but Wen Ning’s flights this month were all scheduled for the daytime. She went out in the morning and came back in the evening, and her schedule became regular. She was bored at home alone, so she simply came over to accompany Gu Chixi.

Taking the initiative to talk about the company, Gu Chixi didn’t hide it from her, although she didn’t know much about it.

“Is the company still in debt now?” Wen Ning asked softly after eating the chicken wings.

Gu Chixi shook his head: “It’s making a profit.”

“Oh, all right.”

“However, the financial report is ugly. Last quarter’s operating income was 3.7 billion, and the net profit was just over 100 million. This quarter should increase a little, but…” She stopped, suddenly wanted to tease Wen Ning, and revealed a pair of With a miserable and difficult look, he sighed.

“Maybe there’s not enough year-end bonuses, so I have to pay for it myself, alas.”

Wen Ning frowned, “Huh?” The boiled meat she picked up froze in midair, “I don’t want my share.”

“why?”

“What’s yours is mine, and what’s mine is also yours.” She subconsciously said, and the air suddenly became quiet.

Gu Chixi looked at her softly, and there was a slight ripple in his eyes.

Wen Ning was stunned, thinking about what she said before she realized it. Her heart seemed to be electrocuted by herself.

“Um?”

“I mean I’m not short of that money.”

“Is that really what it means?”

Wen Ning muttered, “Otherwise what do you think it means…” She lowered her head, put the boiled pork slices into her mouth, and pretended to concentrate on eating.

Consistent duplicity.

Gu Chixi didn’t expose it, and said with a chuckle, “I’m teasing you.”

“?”

“Salaries and year-end bonuses are certainly enough.”

Wen Ning: “…”

Got tricked again.

Wen Ning raised her chin slightly, glared at her, stretched out her chopsticks and snatched away the chicken wings that she had just given her, “You will be fined for not eating.”

The smile in Gu Chixi’s eyes deepened.

“Look at you, you smile so happily, are you rich? Then I want ten times the year-end bonus, can I give it?”

“Give.”

Don’t say ten times, give it a hundred times.

The year-end bonus for the captain rank is at least 200,000 yuan. In previous years, Wen Ning got the money and paid off the debt before she was hot. Every day she imagined a free life without debts. But now, she felt that it didn’t matter, she said it, but she didn’t care in her heart.

“Just kidding, I’m too lazy to ask for it.”

“Um?”

“This rich woman is not uncommon.” She opened her mouth and took a bite of the chicken wing, and showed her how delicious it was on purpose.

Gu Chixi reached out and poked her forehead, saw that the cup was empty, got up and poured water, replacing the empty cup in front of Wen Ning, “The chicken wings are salty, drink some water.”

“Um.”

After dinner, Gu Chixi went to work, Wen Ning cleaned up the lunch box and table top, stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window for a while, sat on the sofa, and looked at the people behind the desk.

The two computers were turned on at the same time, and Gu Chixi was holding a tablet in his hand, not knowing what he was looking at.

The waist is straight, and the sitting posture is beautiful.

When she was concentrating, there was no expression on her face, her skin was like cold white jade, and her long eyelashes were like a pair of cicada wings, perched under her eyes, perhaps because of the light color of her lipstick, and the cold and alienated eyebrows blended in a little. Soft scent, kind of seductive style.

Wen Ning watched intently, her cheeks slightly warm.

When she was very young, she was “seduced” by this face, and said “marriage” in public, making a joke. In fact, at that time, she didn’t understand the real meaning of marriage at all, thinking that it was just to be with the person she liked forever.

Of course she wanted to be with her pretty sister forever.

In the dark, it seems that fate is pulling them, from unfamiliar to familiar, from parting to reunion, childhood jokes come true.

Wen Ning couldn’t help but rolled her eyes.

She took out her mobile phone, held it up, and quietly took a picture of Gu Chixi, who was focusing on her work. Unexpectedly, the man just raised his head and bumped into it.

“Lemon?”

Wen Ning’s scalp was numb with embarrassment, and she said anxiously, “Ah, I’m taking a selfie.”

“yes?”

“…Um.”

Gu Chixi smiled: “Remember to send me one later.”

“…it is good.”

“Next weekend is the winter solstice,” she pondered for a moment. “Should we go see our uncles and aunts?”

Wen Ning was stunned for a moment, and Ying Liang’s eyes were instantly covered with a layer of gray. After a while, she put down her phone and nodded: “Well, go.”

The winter solstice is the day to worship ancestors. In the past, every time this solar term came, my parents would take her back to her hometown to sweep the tomb and eat dumplings. Since something happened at home… She has been sweeping the tomb of her parents for four years.

Seeing her depressed mood, Gu Chixi put down the tablet, got up and walked over, “Ling Ning…”

“Um?”

She hugged her.

Before the winter solstice, the unveiling ceremony of the Jiangcheng Base was held as scheduled.

Almost at the same time, Gu Chixi learned that TEA Air will enter Los Angeles in March next year. She expected it—the other family thought that Uniasia would only open the Jiangcheng base in May next year.

A three-month opportunity is enough to get used to. The headquarters first dispatched a group of people to the Jiangcheng branch. The first flight route is still being applied for. The fastest flight will be in January next year, which may catch up with the Spring Festival.

It rained lightly on the winter solstice morning.

The temperature was fifteen degrees, and there was a cool and shady cold wind blowing outside, and a dampness.

The air conditioner was on in the bedroom, which was comfortable and warm. A ray of light shone through the slits of the curtains. The person on the bed moved, opened his eyes, picked up his mobile phone, and said, “Ling Ning, it’s eight o’clock.”

She kissed the face of the man in her arms.

no response.

Pinch your nose.

“Umm…” Wen Ning was sound asleep, she let out a low sound, and twisted it reluctantly.

Gu Chixi rubbed her earlobe and coaxed, “Dear, get up.”

The lips were pressed against her face, and the touch was as delicate as cream, soft and moist, and she couldn’t help kissing a few more.

Wen Ning groaned and opened her eyes, with a resentful expression, she muttered, “Are you a dog, get up early in the morning and eat me.”

“Just wake you up.” Gu Chixi smiled and kissed her again.

This kind of feeling is like a dream. More than a month ago, she didn’t dare to imagine that she and Wen Ning had no future in this life, but suddenly there was hope. She is so happy and content.

Wen Ning was amused by her, “I’ll start, I’ll start here.”

The two stayed in bed for a while, got up to get dressed and washed, Wen Ning moved quickly, and went down to make breakfast after cleaning up. Go out together after eating.

“Drive my car,” Wen Ning helped Gu Chixi put on her hat as she walked out. “There is a long road in the cemetery that is being repaired. It’s hard to walk. Your car bumps into trouble.”

Her own car is cheap, and after driving it for four years, she doesn’t feel bad about it.

Gu Chixi closed the collar for her, “Okay.”

When I got in the car, the tire pressure warning light suddenly came on. Wen Ning noticed it, frowned, and it sounded an alarm when it ignited. She got out of the car and looked at the four tires. There was no abnormality. She took the tire pressure detector and tested it, and there was no problem.

This happened once before, it was the tire pressure detection system fault, false alarm, repaired, and it went wrong again for some reason.

“Ningning, what’s wrong?” Gu Chixi asked.

Wen Ning said calmly, “The tire pressure detection system is faulty, call the police.”

“Then we…”

“Take a taxi.”

Occupational sensitivity makes Wen Ning subconsciously eliminate all potential safety hazards.

The two called a car at the gate of the community.

Gu Chixi opened the mobile phone memo and added a note: [Change car for Ningbao on 12.22]

When we arrived at the cemetery, the rain was still falling, and the green and erect pine and cypress trees kept dripping water droplets.

There were already a lot of people in the room, Gu Chixi holding an umbrella, Wen Ning holding Gu Chixi, and walking towards the sixth and seventh tombstones in the tenth row.

There are parents’ names and photos on the stele.

Wen Ning put the white chrysanthemum in her hand in front of the monument and whispered, “Dad, Mom, this year is still the same, I’m fine, I’ve paid off my debts, I’ll pay them back…”

Her throat choked, and she turned to look at Gu Chixi.

Gu Chixi cast his gaze.

At the moment when the eyes met, ripples appeared in the bottom of my heart, but there was a layer of transparent glass between the two, and they could see each other. She wanted to reach out, but couldn’t touch it.

Wen Ning turned her face back, lowered her eyes, and failed to finish the second half of the sentence, “The sister from the next door neighbor is back.”

Next door, neighbor’s house, sister…

Gu Chixi read word by word silently, his fingers holding the umbrella handle tightened suddenly.

The rain was hitting the top of the umbrella, dripping along the edge, hitting the concrete platform, in the grass, in the soil, making a messy sound, which was also the sound of her heartbeat that she couldn’t calm down.

Her happiness and contentment, like fireworks, bloomed in the night sky and disappeared.

Don’t you want to admit it?

Is it that hard to say?

Or, what is missing…

Gu Chixi took a deep breath, and the hot air was blown away by the cold wind.

Wen Ning babbled some words, squatted down, arranged the flowers neatly, pulled out the weeds around the stone tablet, and put them in a plastic bag.

Her movements were mechanically stiff, and she plucked the weeds several times, as if she didn’t know what she was doing.

Rain splashed on her hair, on her clothes.

Gu Chixi regained his senses, squatted down, and tilted the umbrella toward Wen Ning, covering her entire body.

Leng Feng carried the cool moisture and lifted the broken hair in front of her forehead. Wen Ning looked down at Shitai, but Gu Chixi was looking at her, with dull colors rolling in her dark eyes.

“Let’s go.” Wen Ning **** the plastic bag.

Gu Chixi didn’t speak and stood up.

…

Sitting in the taxi, the two were silent, the warmth that had flowed for the past few days seemed to be frozen, they could not feel the warmth, only the cold. This psychological effect feeds back into the body.

Gu Chixi’s face and nose were cold from the wind, and her hands were also cold, slightly red.

“I want to go to Yinhua Square.” Wen Ning said suddenly, grabbing her hand subconsciously.

Shockingly cold.

Wen Ning frowned, wrapped her hands around hers and rubbed them gently, “Your hands are so cold.”

The warmth of the palm of the hand and the back of the hand flowed into the heart along the arm, melting the layer of ice, Gu Chixi felt that he was happy and satisfied again, and couldn’t help but slightly curled the corners of his lips, um, leaning his head on Wen Ning’s body.

Yinhua Plaza is the center of the business district, where major brand counters reside.

The rain stopped, and because of the weekend, there was an endless stream of people shopping. Wen Ning originally planned to leave after buying the facial cleanser, but she became interested in shopping.

Gu Chixi walked with her.

Wen Ning hasn’t been shopping for a long time. Daily necessities, including clothes and shoes, are all purchased online. After going around a lot, she found that she had no desire to shop, and she could not figure out what she was missing in her heart.

She only lacks facial cleanser. Just found out this morning that the house is running out.

“What do you want to buy?” she asked Gu Chixi.

Gu Chixi’s eyes were fixed on her, and he shook his head absently.

“…”

Stopping and walking, looking left and right, Wen Ning’s eyes stopped for a few seconds after passing by a coffee shop, and she didn’t speak.

“Forget it, let’s go buy facial cleanser.”

She took Gu Chixi to the counter of a certain brand upstairs.

Through the glass windows, you can see the facade of the coffee shop downstairs. Gu Chixi glanced at it, then turned around and said, “Ning Ning, you are here, I’ll go buy something.”

“Okay.” Wen Ning didn’t lift her head.

After a while, she bought facial cleanser and two additional lipsticks of the same shade. When she walked out of the counter, she saw Gu Chixi walking towards her with a cup of coffee.

“?”

“Mocha.”

Gu Chixi handed her the coffee and took the paper bag in her hand, “Have you bought it?”

“…Well.” Wen Ning nodded, glanced at the coffee, then looked up at her, “How do you know I want to drink this?”

“you guess.”

Wen Ning pouted slightly, raised her eyebrows and said, “You must have peeked at me all the way.”

“It’s a fair look.”

“…”

Gu Chixi pursed her lips and smiled. Out of the corner of the eye, she saw that the laces of her short boots were loosened. She squatted down, covered the paper bag in her arms, and reached out to tie a bow for her shoelaces.

The black shoelaces make the fingers slender and white, and the movements are dexterous and fast.

Wen Ning blushed suddenly.

“Let’s go,” Gu Chixi stood up, holding a paper bag in one hand, holding her in the other, and clasping his fingers tightly, “Go eat. What do you want to eat?”

Wen Ning was about to speak when she was suddenly called out:

“Captain Wen—”

The two turned their heads at the same time.

A long-haired woman came from the side elevator, holding a little boy in her hand. It was a flight attendant who she knew but didn’t know very well.

Wen Ning immediately broke free from Gu Chixi’s hand.
