Jiang Yansheng was furious. It was the same adjective, but why did it feel so different when it came from a different man's mouth?
His ears felt wet, as if he had been kissed. Jiang Yansheng pulled himself together and pushed away Gu Ran, who was acting like a hooligan. He sat up straight.
"What wife …"
She looked around and accidentally touched the glowing sticky note. After a while, she couldn't help looking back. The small thing seemed to have a special attraction.
She gritted her teeth. "Who's your wife? Why did you call her that so easily? Who knows how many wives you have outside … "
Gu Yan was discussing with her seriously. "Don't call me wife? Should I call her darling or baby? I didn't expect Yansheng to be such a mushy person … "
"Stop!"
Jiang Yansheng had goosebumps all over her body. She couldn't wait to open the car door and get out. The man next to her was still laughing and talking nonsense. She reached out and covered Gu Yan's mouth to prevent him from saying anything explosive.
"Forget it, forget it. Let's just do this …"
She said absentmindedly. Suddenly, someone licked her palm. Her shoulders trembled and she retracted her hand. The next second, she heard the man's low laughter.
Pervert.
Cursing in his heart, Jiang Yansheng rolled his eyes, "If you stick to it like this, what if your dad or your baby sister rides in your car?"
If they saw the sticky note, wouldn't their eyes pop out?
"I won't," Gu Ran said confidently. "No one can get in my car except you."
"Who would believe that …" Jiang Yansheng curled her lips and opened the drawer where the sticky note was stuck. The women's cigarettes that were specially prepared for her were gone.
Instead, there were a few boxes of candy.
Different flavors of candy.
Jiang Yansheng scratched his head in frustration. "Where's the cigarette?"
Gu Yan said calmly, "I threw it away."
"Throw it away?" Jiang Yansheng turned around and glared at him. "A pack is worth three digits. I only smoked one last time, and there are so many left. Did you throw them all away?"
His hand searched around in disbelief and confirmed that there was not a single pack of cigarettes left.
She sighed heavily.
"I thought you only smoke when you're in a bad mood?"
"Huh?" Jiang Yansheng was still immersed in the emptiness and disappointment.
"With me here, you won't be in a bad mood, and you won't need to smoke." Gu Yan's expression did not change, and he looked down at her.
"Don't sigh. You'll sigh away all your happiness."
Jiang Yansheng silently shut his mouth.
"I'm not sighing. I was just yawning."
Gu Yan smiled. "Alright."
…
Finally, he got out of Gu Yan's car.
If the two of them were left alone like this, she would feel that there wasn't enough air.
"Do you want me to pick you up tomorrow morning?" Gu Yan rolled down the window and showed half of his face.
Jiang Yansheng said briskly, "No need."
Suddenly, she thought of something. She stretched her legs and put her face against the half-open window with difficulty. Jiang Yansheng asked, "Are you … going to any balls recently?"
Gu Yan thought for a moment and said, "No."
"What's wrong?"
Jiang Yansheng breathed a sigh of relief, but also felt a little disappointed. "Nothing. I'm just asking."
She took a step back, and her wrist was suddenly grabbed. Gu Yan leaned over and stared at her. "Are you going to a ball?"
"With who?"
Jiang Yansheng wanted to applaud this man's keen observation. She laughed dryly and couldn't get rid of his grip on her wrist. "What are you thinking about? I'm just asking about your schedule. I'm not going to a ball. "
Gu Yan frowned.
Jiang Yansheng used both his hands to forcefully pry his fingers apart. He hastily said goodbye and scurried back without looking back.
…
Back at the apartment, Yu Zhouzhou was sitting on the sofa holding a soft pillow and eating in a sulky manner. Gu Yisheng let out a small cry and rubbed his tail against Yu Zhouzhou's calf from left to right, as if he was comforting her.
Jiang Yansheng walked in in surprise. "What's wrong? Who stole your money? Why do you look so bitter? "
"Who can steal money from me?" Yu Zhouzhou rolled his eyes proudly. "Don't mention it. It's unlucky."
Jiang Yansheng shrugged and shut his mouth obediently. He didn't ask about Yu Zhouzhou anymore. However, after a while, Yu Zhouzhou couldn't help but talk about it again.
"Sigh, today's blind date was very exaggerated."
Jiang Yansheng poked his head out of the kitchen. "What's wrong? Did you leave a bad impression when you went out for dinner? "
"Not really." Yu Zhouzhou smacked his lips in annoyance. "Maybe it's fate. Today's blind date turned out to be my college classmate. When he saw me, he didn't even eat. He said that he used to pursue me in college and even sent me a love letter, but all his things were … thrown away by Fu Minglang and he was beaten up."
She gritted every syllable as she said this.
"Today, when he saw me, he didn't even warm his seat. He kept asking me when I could leave. He even asked me if my family forced me to come and if Fu Minglang was watching me. If he was seen later, he might get beaten up again."
"I told him that Fu Minglang and I broke up, but he stared at me. Was he in disbelief?" Yu Zhouzhou touched the fur on Gu Yisheng's back angrily. Only then did he calm down a little.
"If one doesn't work, there's always another one, right?" Jiang Yansheng said regretfully. She quickly snatched the snacks from Yu Zhouzhou's hand. "Stop eating. If you keep eating like a pig, you probably won't be able to go on a blind date."
"Ah! Why is it that even you don't have a good attitude towards me? " Yu Zhouzhou whined and leaned back on the sofa. The variety show on the TV was in the middle of a funny segment. The host and guests burst into laughter, making Yu Zhouzhou's sadness seem unconvincing.
"Even he is haunting me," she mumbled.
Jiang Yansheng picked up the cat and sat next to Yu Zhouzhou. She ate a chip and was slightly stunned when she watched the TV.
The female guest on the variety show was coincidentally Jiang Yaru.
On the TV screen, the woman had delicate makeup on and a generous smile on her face. Her snow-white dress accentuated her slender waist perfectly. At the moment, her face was flushed because the host was joking with her.
"A girl with a perfect face like Yaru should be the ideal type in the hearts of many male actors, right?" The host extended the microphone in front of Jiang Yaru. "I wonder if there are any sparks between Yaru and the second male lead this time?"
The actors who were standing in a row all had meaningful smiles on their faces.
The man who was supposed to be the second male lead helped Jiang Yaru out. "Yaru is a very good actor. This time …"
Jiang Yansheng was watching Jiang Yaru attentively when someone suddenly shook her arm.
"What are you looking at? This episode is boring. All of them can't even let loose on the stage." Yu Zhouzhou sounded very dissatisfied. She pursed her lips and said, "By the way, I have a blind date tomorrow night. I'm a little scared. Are you free tomorrow night? Can you accompany me?"
Looking at Yu Zhouzhou's pair of bright and pleading eyes, Jiang Yansheng sighed silently in his heart. "I'm fine. Send me the address later."
"Really? Yansheng, you're so nice! " Yu Zhouzhou threw away the pillow in relief and threw herself into Jiang Yansheng's arms. She grabbed Jiang Yansheng's wrist with great force.
Jiang Yansheng asked calmly, "Did you bump into Fu Minglang somewhere today?"
The smile on Yu Zhouzhou's face froze, and even the tone of her voice changed. She looked away and said, "What are you talking about? How could I bump into him? Didn't that annoying guy disappear from my world a long time ago? "
"Your bad habit hasn't changed after so many years." Jiang Yansheng pinched Yu Zhouzhou's nose harshly. "If you don't know how to lie, then don't say it. You're so unnatural that I feel embarrassed for you. Tell me, where did you meet him today?"
Yu Zhouzhou coughed softly and glanced at Jiang Yansheng. Seeing that she was expressionless, she simply said, "Didn't I have a blind date today? There happened to be an internet cafe nearby, and I saw him being kicked out by the boss. It seemed that he had no money to go online, so he threw him out with his things. "
She frowned as she said, "But why did he have no money again? Didn't I sell the house and give him the money I earned before I left? "
Could it be that Fu Minglang was still borrowing from loan sharks?
"Didn't I say that I wouldn't care about him anymore?" Jiang Yansheng noticed that Yu Zhouzhou's thoughts were drifting away, so she immediately tapped her forehead and caught her attention. "Remember the location of that internet cafe. Don't go there again."
Yu Zhouzhou lowered her head and said softly, "Of course."
…
The next day, Jiang Yansheng got up early and took the subway to the company. As soon as she entered the design department, she heard the lively discussion inside.
"You guys still don't know? It's that Qiao Nuo who has always been quite arrogant … "
"What's wrong with Qiao Nuo? She hasn't been coming to work recently. Isn't she afraid that the director will fire her? "
"Why would she be afraid of that? You definitely don't know that she has a good relationship with someone from HR. I heard that if HR doesn't fire her, she will beg to stay in our company! "
"Don't say that. I think she doesn't care about our little designer's job now. I saw her come to the company to hand in her resignation letter yesterday, so I went to ask around …"
"She's going to marry the CEO of Mu Group in half a month!"
"Mu Group? Isn't it the Mu Group that our director discussed the proposal with? Oh my god, I remember that the CEO is very handsome. Why would he like Qiao Nuo, that arrogant woman? "
"I heard that he even has a child, not to mention liking her."
Jiang Yansheng listened for a while and walked in with a smile. She clapped her hands lightly and said, "Time to go to work."
