☆, Chapter 71: Catching an adulterer
Gu Ran wanted to pat his chest to show his determination, but then he realized that his hand was held by Bai Yifan.
The sense of touch suddenly became extremely clear.
Gu Ran moved her fingertips, looked down, and couldn't help blushing.
She felt that Bai Yifan had no other intentions and simply forgot to let go.
Bai Yifan's hands were warm, and his fingers were long and slender, so it didn't feel uncomfortable at all when he held them.
But she just felt a little embarrassed.
After all, this is the hand of the opposite sex, and it belongs to such a handsome guy.
If it were in her previous life, she would probably be crazy about the other person.
But her current identity...
Bai Yifan probably treats her as a little sister, and treats her similarly to Gu Ximing and Gu Xiyan.
Thinking about it this way, I feel a little disappointed for some reason.
"Then when are we going there?" Gu Ran changed the subject and asked Bai Yifan.
Before she could speak, Bai Yifan had already pressed the elevator button and went straight to the first floor.
As soon as Gu Ran finished speaking, the elevator stopped steadily on the first floor.
The elevator door opened.
"Why are you coming down again?" Gu Ran was surprised.
"Since this is such an important matter to you, you should go there early and wait for it so that you can respond flexibly." Bai Yifan pulled her out of the elevator.
…
After Gu Lan got off the plane, the first thing he did was to check his phone.
This has been a habit she has developed over the years.
The original seven-day business trip plan was shortened to five days due to the excellent performance of the team.
After flying for several hours, Gu Lan was a little tired, but she still did not forget to check her phone.
The pinned contact has not changed since I met Chen An.
However, unlike the previous chat records where there was back-and-forth communication, in recent days Chen An was the only one sending messages to Gu Lan.
Gu Lan never responded.
Strictly speaking, Gu Lan is not a person who holds grudges, nor does she care about gains and losses or face in relationships.
At the same time, she is not the kind of person who is unreasonable and pretentious, and she will not deliberately go into a cold war just because of a quarrel.
Gu Lan prefers to communicate with each other and talk things out, and he is an executive person.
But this time she was childish.
No, it can't be said to be childish, she just simply wants to be willful for once.
Not replying to the other party's message will not solve any problem, and continuing the cold war with Chen An is not a solution either.
If you want to continue well, you should know when to stop.
If you want to separate, you should make it clear.
Gu Lan understood all of this in her heart, but sometimes she understood it but just didn't want to do it.
Just two hours ago, Chen An sent her a message, asking her if her work was going well and showing all kinds of concern for her.
His attitude was as good as ever, as if Gu Lan's deliberate failure to reply to messages these days had not caused any impact on the other party, as if he could tolerate everything.
In the past, Gu Lan liked Chen An's tolerance very much, but now she didn't know why, and always thought too deeply about some of Chen An's behaviors.
Can one person really be so tolerant?
Even a rabbit will bite when it is angry, let alone human beings with seven emotions and six desires.
Thinking back on the time she and Chen An met, started dating, and continued dating until now, except for the time when she moved out of the Gu family and they frequently had conflicts over trivial matters and had a serious fight, Chen An had never lost his temper with her again.
In other words, Chen An used to be calm, tolerant, and emotionally stable.
Gu Lan herself lacks such qualities, so she particularly likes such qualities.
But during the time she moved out, she found that Chen An was not so emotionally stable, and he would get angry, furious, and have emotional breakdowns.
For example, the other day they had a fight...
Then why didn't Chen An ever show any negative emotions in the past?
Is it just because you love her?
Gu Lan doesn't think so.
In the past, she was the daughter of the Gu family, and Chen An could tolerate everything, but now she is no longer.
When she had the halo of being the daughter of the Gu family, Chen An would always listen to her when they disagreed and would never lose his temper with her.
As a result, the two of them never had any conflicts, because whenever there was a sign of conflict, it was nipped in the bud by Chen An.
But after moving out of the Gu family and severing ties with them, Chen An gradually stopped making small changes into big things and letting small things disappear.
Naturally, the two of them had something to argue about.
During these days of the cold war, Gu Lan became more and more clear-headed, and all kinds of memories from the past and present came flooding back, making her figure out some things.
But after all, having been in a relationship with Chen An for many years, Gu Lan understood the reasons for some things rationally, but was unwilling to believe them.
What if it was a misunderstanding?
What if... Chen An's mood changes just because of the problems at work.
just in case…
There are so many what-ifs.
Gu Lan really didn't want to doubt her lover like this.
It was also because of these contradictions that even if Gu Lan wanted to reply, sometimes she didn't know what to say. She kept putting it off until now.
Now she just needs to reply that her business trip has ended early, and the two of them can use this topic to break the ice, and Chen An will definitely come to pick her up.
Maybe even arrange a romantic candlelight dinner for her.
The two seemed to be able to return to the past.
But can we really go back to the past?
Gu Lan was very conflicted. She no longer understood what she wanted. She didn't want to continue to be stupid or to wake up.
She looked at Chen An's message again and again, poking her fingertips in the dialog box, typing and deleting, and ultimately did not reply.
After exiting the contact's chat box, Gu Lan found that the next message was an unread message from Gu Ran, sent twenty minutes ago.
Gu Ran: Second sister, remember to tell me when you get off the plane.
Gu Ran: Don’t go through the side door, go through the main entrance of the airport lobby. I’ll be waiting for you at the door.
Gu Ran?
It had been a long time since Gu Lan heard news about the Gu family, let alone news about Gu Ran.
Since they last parted at the Gu family, she has not contacted Gu Ran, but only heard some news about the little daughter of the Gu family from other people.
Gu Ran's previous illnesses were all cured. He became lively and smart, and attended the banquet with his parents with ease. He was no longer the same Gu Ran as before.
Gu Lan replied to Gu Ran with mixed feelings.
Gu Lan: I just got off the plane. What can I do for you?
How did Gu Ran know she was on a business trip? And how did he know when she would be back? Was he waiting for her outside the airport?
There can't be such a coincidence in the world, right?
Gu Ran: Second sister, your flight is quite punctual, it’s not late at all!
Gu Ran: Are you out yet? I'm right outside the main gate. You can see me as soon as you go out.
Gu Ran: I did come to see you because I have something, but I can’t explain it clearly over the phone. Come out and I’ll tell you slowly.
Gu Lan put his phone back in his pocket and walked out with his suitcase.
When Gu Lan walked out of the revolving door of the hall, he saw Gu Ran waiting opposite him.
Gu Ran trotted towards her, looking very excited.
