Now Su An became the silent person.
She didn't expect that Gu Jingchen would remember these.
If it were someone with a bad temper, they could just reply, "It's time to get off work, and this is my personal time."
But Su An didn't dare.
She was afraid that this would anger Gu Jingchen.
I lost the opportunity to become a regular employee that I had worked so hard to get.
Right now, I can only find an excuse that couldn't sound more reasonable.
Su An suddenly remembered what he was here for and said hurriedly, "Mr. Gu, I'm here to buy a cake."
"Come here just to buy cake?"
Gu Jingchen's tone was still full of disbelief.
Su An took a deep breath after hearing this, and finally dared to look up and look directly at him, and said in a firm tone, "Yes, I saw on the Internet that there is a very famous cake shop here, just around the corner. If Mr. Gu is interested, you can also try it."
Gu Jingchen didn't say anything.
He often walked here, so he naturally knew which store Xia Xiaomo was talking about.
When I passed by just now, I saw how many people were in the store.
But...is she really just here to buy a cake?
If not...
Gu Jingchen's eyes darkened, and for a moment he couldn't think of what the other party could have come for if not.
Really...is he overthinking it?
Regardless of whether she really came to buy a cake, he couldn't block her here and not let her leave.
"Mr. Gu?"
Su An called Gu Jingchen again.
Gu Jingchen came back to his senses instantly, then he took a step aside and said in a deep voice, "That's all. Go away."
"Thank you, Mr. Gu."
When Su An heard that he was finally willing to let the person go, he instantly breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly walked towards the cake shop without looking back.
There were indeed a lot of customers in the store, and the queue was almost reaching the door.
Su An stood at the end of the line, but she couldn't help but glance at the street corner out of the corner of her eye, fearing that Gu Jingchen would suddenly appear in front of her again.
After waiting in line for ten minutes, Su An finally bought the cake she wanted.
She carried the box out of the house. Even though she knew Gu Jingchen might have left, she did not dare to relax at all. She went straight back to where she parked her car and left quickly.
Not far away, in a car——
Gu Jingchen looked at the direction where Su An left with a serious face, his eyes deep and unfathomable.
She really…just bought the cake and left.
But even if Xia Xiaomo really has some relationship with An An and came here for other purposes, she probably wouldn't dare to do anything after meeting him here.
Gu Jingchen closed his eyes and gently rubbed his eyebrows.
A while——
He suddenly thought of something, opened his eyes abruptly, took out his cell phone, and quickly dialed a number.
After just a few seconds, someone picked up the phone and said respectfully, "Mr. Gu."
"How's the investigation going on with the person I asked you to investigate earlier?"
Gu Jingchen asked straight to the point.
The person on the other end of the line quickly replied, "We were just about to report this to you. Regarding that woman named Xia Xiaomo, we've checked her resume and all her relationships, and we haven't found any connection between her and your wife."
"Not at all?"
Gu Jingchen continued to ask.
"No, not at all."
The other person answered with absolute certainty, then added, "There's not even a marginal difference like the possibility that they attended the same school. It can be said... that they are two parallel lines with no overlap at all."
Gu Jingchen exhaled deeply and said nothing.
The person on the other end of the phone also fell silent.
A few seconds later—
"I see."
Gu Jingchen finally dropped four words and hung up the phone directly. Then he threw the phone aside, staring blankly at the familiar neighborhood not far away, and fell into silence.
Maybe……
Maybe he really missed An An too much.
Xia Xiaomo can come here and buy cakes at will.
You can also laugh whenever you want.
He could no longer suppress his urge to see her.
That's why she becomes wary of anyone who is somewhat similar to her, or anything related to her.
This was probably God's punishment for how he had treated An An...
…
On the other side——
Su An returned home in a hurry.
Only after locking the door did she finally let go of all her strength, kicked off her high heels casually, and even didn't bother to take off her makeup, and just fell on the sofa.
The palpitations I felt when I bumped into Gu Jingchen just now seemed to be imprinted in my mind.
Just thinking about it made her fingertips tremble.
"call……"
Su An exhaled softly, trying to calm himself down.
His eyes also looked at the chocolate cake that was casually thrown on the coffee table, with some nostalgia in his eyes.
Bought the cake.
As for Gu Jingchen, he should have been able to cover up the problem, right?
After she left, did he... often hang around there?
Su An asked himself quietly in his heart, he didn't need anyone to answer, he already had the answer.
After an unknown amount of time, she finally turned over and sat up from the sofa.
Then he unwrapped the cake, took a small piece and put it into his mouth.
The soft, sweet and slightly bitter taste brought back many memories for her.
only……
From now on, she can no longer go there in person.
I absolutely cannot be in the same place and be seen by Gu Jingchen twice.
A few days later——
Su An went to work and came home on time every day as usual, and his life was peaceful.
As usual, Gu Jingchen asked Tang Ze to assign her various tasks and did not mention anything about what happened that day.
Su An also stopped worrying about it completely.
Afternoon——
She had just finished working on a report when someone knocked on the office door.
Su An looked up and saw Tang Ze walking in, and quickly stood up.
Tang Ze smiled very friendly.
"Assistant Xia, don't be so polite. We are already officially married."
"Um……"
Su An responded softly, and looking at the smile on Tang Ze's face, he suddenly felt that things had changed.
In the past, Tang Ze always had a stern face, making him look difficult to approach.
Now...
Is it because he's going to be a father soon?
He no longer seemed to have that fierce temperament, but instead had a bit of gentleness.
Because love can change a person.
It can also lead to eternal damnation.
Just like her and Gu Jingchen...
All the things that happened between the two of them flashed through his mind quickly. Su An came back to his senses in an instant and asked hurriedly, "Assistant Tang, do you have any new work to give me?"
"yes."
Tang Ze simply nodded, then a look of embarrassment appeared on his face.
After a two-second pause, he continued, "Mr. Gu is going on a business trip to the neighboring city B tomorrow. It will take about three days, and there will be an important banquet. Originally, I should have accompanied Mr. Gu, but my wife has been feeling unwell recently, and I want to spend more time with her..."
