Chapter 26: One on the left hand, one on the right hand



Chen Nian'an's face froze, and she almost tripped in her high heels and fell to the ground with her legs spread out.

What the hell?

What little lady, little master!

The light red on her earlobe had not yet faded away, but now it turned pink again. She glared at Mrs. Luo in a neither light nor heavy glare.

[The lady seemed to be looking at me! Could I have guessed right?]

"Let's go." Gu Boyan and Chen Nian'an went in together. Behind them, Mrs. Luo and Old Gu had sparks in their eyes, and they were circling back and forth between the two of them.

A look of relief.

Gu Boyan waved his hand, signaling the two to leave.

The living room suddenly became quiet. He walked over and pulled out a chair, "Come and eat."

Originally, I drove to a private restaurant outside with Gu Boyan today, but for some reason, I wanted to come back and eat.

A large rectangular table, covered with crimson silk satin, hung on the soft carpet.

Red wine, candles, exquisite food, in the glass bottle, dewdrops slide down the delicate red petals and drip onto the table.

All of this indicates that this is a carefully prepared lunch, no, it’s afternoon lunch.

Chen Nian'an picked up the wine glass on the table, tilted it slightly, and a cute smile played on the corner of her mouth.

The wine-red liquid shook, making a crisp sound like glasses clinking.

"sonorous"

Gu Boyan, who was sitting on the other side, also smiled and raised his glass to clink it with hers briefly.

The door was closed and the curtains were not drawn. In the dim light, the candlelight flickered on the cheeks of the two people. They raised their heads and took a sip of wine tacitly.

The mellow aroma of the wine lingers on the tip of the tongue, giving stimulation and enjoyment to the taste buds.

"Hello, Mr. Chen"

Chen Nian'an curled his eyes, and the red mole was particularly conspicuous.

"Hello, Mrs. Gu"

Gu Boyan also smiled and whispered.

There was an indescribable atmosphere, and both of them were in a relaxed posture. Even though they didn't say anything, one could feel that their hearts were very close.

The two of them ate their meal leisurely. Just as Gu Boyan stood up, the doorbell rang.

As if he knew who it was, Gu Boyan's expression showed no displeasure at being disturbed, and he said calmly: "Come in"

The door was pushed open, and Cheng Shi, the assistant who had rushed over, came in, looking tired and dusty, holding a black gift box in his hand.

"Mr. Gu, this is what you want." He handed the gift box to Gu Boyan.

After taking it, he opened it and took a quick look. After confirming that it was what he wanted, Gu Boyan waved his hand and said expressionlessly: "It's okay."

Cheng Shi, who had finally had a day off, was spending time with his wife at home when he was coldly summoned by Mr. Gu.

He didn't even have time to eat lunch. He glanced at the rich food behind him and swallowed.

"How inhumane! The custom-made gift just arrived in the neighboring city of B, and you asked me to gallop across hundreds of kilometers to get it back? I didn't even get a hot meal. Mr. Gu, please open your eyes and look at your poor servant."

Cheng Shi wailed inwardly, complaining about Gu Boyan who only cared about his wife.

Chen Nian'an raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

What gift? Why are you in such a hurry?

For me?

Gu Boyan finally opened his eyes. When he was about to walk towards Chen Nian'an with the gift in his hand, he found that Cheng Shi next to him had not moved.

He raised his eyes and asked curiously, "Why are you still here?"

Why are you still here??

[Wow, wow, what cold words! Poor workers, their ruthless and cruel bosses who exploit them, have no dignity, no personality, no...]

Cheng Shi's inner thoughts were becoming more and more outrageous. Chen Nian'an, standing beside him, couldn't help but open his mouth and asked, "Have you eaten yet?"

[I didn't eat it! Thank you, Madam Qingtian, for your insight.]

As soon as these words were spoken, Cheng Shi was about to reply when he saw Gu Boyan's face instantly darken. After all, he had been with the cold-faced President Gu for such a long time.

His ability to read people's expressions is his biggest advantage in not getting fired.

When Mr. Gu pursed his lips, Cheng Shi knew that he was in a bad mood and that a storm was about to come, so he immediately swallowed the words in his throat.

He changed his tone and smiled: "Madam, I have already eaten."

[No kidding, I guarantee that if I say I didn't eat it, Mr. Gu will definitely eat me!]

As expected, this sentence resonated deeply with me. The corners of Mr. Gu's mouth softened slightly, and he finally stopped shooting cold arrows at him.

Gu Boyan glanced over clearly and raised his eyebrows slightly, meaning - why are you still standing here after eating?

After Cheng Shi understood, he said with tears in his eyes: "Mrs. Gu, Mr. Gu has nothing else to do, so I will leave first."

[Damn capitalists, I want to go back to find my sweet and soft wife, woo woo woo]

When he was about to leave, the capitalist Gu suddenly felt guilty and called him, "Wait a minute."

Cheng Shi looked back in confusion.

"This month's quarterly bonus will be doubled"

!

[Yeah]

To Cheng Shi, these few casual words sounded like the most wonderful words in the world, and a smile immediately appeared on his miserable face.

"Yes, thank you, boss!" Cheng Shile left happily, not forgetting to close the door, leaving the boss's wife a perfect private space.

The living room suddenly became quiet again. Gu Boyan came over with the gift bag, put the black box on the table, and pushed it in front of Chen Nian'an.

"A gift for me?"

"Well, open it and take a look." Gu Boyan's expression was still as calm as usual. He leaned over to get himself a glass of water, put one hand in his pocket, raised his chin slightly and drank slowly.

Doesn't seem to care at all.

Chen Nian'an opened the bag and saw a small square box with a black texture and platinum pattern.

What is it?

Although Gu Boyan gave her many gifts this year, none of them was delivered to her personally. They were all brought by Mrs. Luo. It was hard to explain why.

Perhaps he knew she wouldn't be interested, but that was true. No matter what he gave her, Chen Nian'an didn't even look at it.

When the gift box was opened, the first thing I saw in the dim light was the honey-colored cat's eye stones in the middle of the rope, two of them placed side by side, emitting a soft, crystal-clear light.

They are two cat's eye bracelets, with red and black laces twisted into a thin rope, and the silver clasp is bent over the light of the gemstone.

Couple bracelets.

This was the first thought that popped into Chen Nian'an's mind. When he glanced up from the bottom, the man standing next to him looked away and drank a sip of water with an expressionless face.

[Nian An wouldn't dislike it, right? ]

【Can’t you tell it’s a couple’s bracelet?】

Chen Nian'an looked at him leisurely, wanting to see her reaction, but also pretending to be someone who didn't care.

I couldn't help but smile, and the corners of my tall eyes curved gently.

"Gu Boyan" Chen Nian'an seemed confused, "Why two?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Gu Boyan looked at her with a stern jawline, his pupils were particularly dark, almost ink-black.

Chen Nian'an looked completely oblivious, even tilting her head. The corners of her lips, rosy from eating, curled up. She held up a finger, and as if a flash of inspiration had occurred to her: "I know, one for each hand!"

"Hmm, I'm so smart."

After saying this, she praised herself generously and winked.

Gu Boyan: "..."
