Chapter 54: Have a baby soon.
After the words were spoken, silence fell.
Several programmers whose minds were only focused on binary systems didn't react for a moment and stared blankly at Gu Xun, as if they were trying to use 0s and 1s to translate what Gu Xun meant.
Among those present, only Yue Qianling understood Gu Xun's meaning at the first moment.
She silently lowered her head, tapping her lips against the rim of the cup, hiding the corners of her mouth that she couldn't suppress.
Until Huang Jie vomited.
Everyone's eyes suddenly focused on her.
Yi Hong, who was sitting next to her, looked her up and down and asked, "What's wrong with you?"
Huang Jie realized that she had just let out her emotions too much, and quickly smiled and said, "Nothing, I just think Gu Xun's words are a bit corny sometimes."
Gu Xun: “…”
He lowered his eyes and looked at Huang Jie, wondering if this female colleague had any opinion about him.
At this time, the waiters came to serve the dishes one after another. Yi Hong and the others felt that it was a bit rude to talk about this matter, so they changed the subject.
The lunch break time was limited, so everyone ate without wasting time. Half an hour later, Gu Xun and Huang Jie both went to the bathroom.
Seeing that everyone had almost finished eating, Yi Hong took the initiative to ask the waiter to pay the bill.
The waiter came over with an iPad and said, "Sir, this table has already paid."
Yi Hong raised an eyebrow, "Hmm? Did you give me the money?"
The waiter nodded: "Yes."
As he was talking, the waiter saw Gu Xun coming back and pointed at him, "This gentleman gave it to me."
Yi Hong and his colleagues seldom split the bill when dining together. After all, they all have such high incomes and do not care about the cost of one or two meals. It would be troublesome to calculate the cost of each meal.
But people won’t just let others pay for their meals. They all care about these little things and take turns to pay tacitly.
So when the waiter said that Gu Xun had already paid, Yi Hong asked him, "Didn't we agree that I'll treat you today?"
Gu Xun said "Oh", then leaned next to Yue Qianling, put his arm on the back of her chair, and said slowly: "Can't you bring my girlfriend to treat everyone to a meal?"
“…”
Yue Qianling was about to get up, but after hearing what he said, she stopped and turned to look at Gu Xun in a daze.
Gu Xun lowered his eyes and looked at her, raised his eyebrows, said nothing, but the corners of his mouth were slightly curved, and his eyes conveyed meaning that only she knew.
While respecting her wishes, he still couldn't help but express his hidden love for her.
Yue Qianling's eyes flashed slightly, her cheeks blushed, her lips slightly curved, and she said "hmm" softly.
However, except for her, everyone present understood Gu Xun's "带" as "代".
Especially Yi Hong, he couldn't help but sneer, a little confused about what was in Gu Xun's mind.
He usually looks cold, but now he wants to find every opportunity to show off that he has a girlfriend.
"Why are you showing off? Bring the person out next time before you talk about this."
Yi Hong didn't realize anything was wrong and continued, "This meal doesn't count anyway."
Yue Qianling on the side quickly responded: "Then I will treat everyone next time."
Gu Xun tilted his head and smiled: "Okay."
"What's good about that? You're embarrassed?" Yi Hong finished the rest of his drink, stood up and made a "forbidden" gesture to Yue Qianling, "We don't let girls pay for meals here."
Gu Xun didn't say anything, but just glanced at Yi Hong as if he was a mentally retarded person.
Yue Qianling pursed her lips and sighed silently.
Yi Hong was so stubborn that she really didn't know how to start talking.
A few minutes later, Huang Jie also came back from the toilet, and the group left the restaurant together.
-
It was Friday in a blink of an eye. The temperature reached a new high that day and a high temperature warning appeared in the weather software.
Colleagues were not affected by the weather. With ten minutes left before the end of get off work, everyone was clearly unable to contain their excitement. Some were putting on makeup, some were styling their hair. Yin Qin even ran to the bathroom to change her clothes in preparation for tonight's social dinner.
Yue Qianling felt out of tune with the atmosphere at the scene. She just wanted to go back early to take a shower and quietly draw line drawings in her little room.
So when it was time to get off work, she packed up and got up.
Just as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something and sat down again to send a message to Gu Xun.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: Are you done with your work?
A few minutes later, he replied.
[School Prince]: No, it’s probably a bit late today.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: Oh, I’ll go back first.
[School Prince]: Don’t leave yet, come and park your car underground.
【Glutinous rice twisted dough sticks】：?
【School Prince】: Five minutes.
[Glutinous Rice Dough Sticks]: An affair?
【School Prince】：……
[School Prince]: You have to say that.
[School Prince]: It’s not impossible.
After putting away his phone, Yue Qianling was about to leave when he glanced at the black computer screen and discovered that his image seemed a little bad.
So she took out a small mirror from the drawer and looked at herself.
really.
Because the weather was hot, she had tied her hair into a bun when she went out. Now her hair was loose and her face looked a little haggard.
But I didn’t wear any makeup today, and I didn’t bring any cosmetics in my bag.
She turned around and asked Huang Jie: "Can I borrow your lipstick?"
Huang Jie had just finished putting on her makeup and without thinking much, she threw the lipstick to her.
But seeing her carefully putting on makeup in front of a small mirror, I felt something was wrong, "Why are you putting on makeup when you're almost off work?"
Yue Qianling: "Nothing, I just feel a little haggard."
Huang Jie stared at her for a few seconds, seeming to want to say something but stopping herself several times.
It wasn't until Yue Qianling returned the lipstick to her that she spoke: "You really aren't going? It's almost Valentine's Day, why don't you give yourself a chance?"
After saying that, he winked at her meaningfully.
Yue Qianling was about to speak, but Yin Qin beside her took over with a smile: "What are you worrying about? Qianling works in the Ninth Business Unit all day long, so why should she worry about not finding a boyfriend? Besides, the salaries of developers are terribly high. We work so hard to earn all the money to support them, so we should try to keep the money within the family."
Yin Qin always spoke in such a sarcastic way, and Yue Qianling was used to it. She didn't want to talk to her any more, so she nodded and said, "You have a point."
Huang Jie glanced at Yue Qianling and muttered, "What's so good about them? They earn a lot but die early."
“…”
Yue Qianling pinched her and said, "You withdraw now."
-
Talking to Huang Jie and the others took a while, and when Yue Qianling arrived at the underground parking lot, ten minutes had passed.
Yue Qianling saw Gu Xun standing next to the beam from afar and trotted over to him.
The parking lot was hotter than his coat, and in just a short while, a fine layer of sweat appeared on Yue Qianling's forehead.
But she was unaware of it and still ran to Gu Xun with a smile on her face.
"What's the matter?"
"I can only come to you when I have something to do, and you still call me your boyfriend?"
Gu Xun grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms, "Can't I see you if nothing happens?"
There were many people leaving get off work at this time, and people kept coming to the parking lot. Yue Qianling felt a little embarrassed, so she coughed lightly and said, "See you, can I go home now?"
Gu Xun didn't say anything, his eyes lingered on her face, finally landing on her lips painted with bean paste-colored lipstick.
"You're wearing makeup?" Gu Xun raised his eyebrows and raised her chin with his hand. "Didn't you not wear makeup when you left this morning?"
Of course Yue Qianling couldn't say that she put on lipstick just to see him, so she turned her face away and took a step back.
"No, you must be dazzled."
Gu Xun smiled and reached out to hold Yue Qianling's hand again.
Little did they know that this scene was seen by Huang Jie and Yi Hong who just came out of the elevator.
The two stood at the corner, feeling so awkward as if they had walked into a execution ground, their eyeballs almost popping out.
After a few seconds, the two looked at each other and turned away.
When they reached the elevator, neither of them spoke.
After a moment's silence, they turned their heads again and looked into each other's eyes.
Yi Hong: "Ah, this..."
Huang Jie: "You also think this is inappropriate, right?"
Yi Hong scratched his head: "But..."
Huang Jie didn't say anything else, but her brows were furrowed.
He already has a girlfriend but still harasses his female colleagues. It turns out that good-looking men are not reliable.
Yue Qianling was also stupid. She heard with her own ears at noon that he had a girlfriend, but she just broke up with him.
Just a picture of a face?
Pooh.
Thinking of this, Huang Jie felt that she couldn't bear it any longer, so she turned around and walked towards Yue Qianling and Gu Xun.
"Hey you!"
Yi Hong was stunned for a long time when he saw her fast footsteps, and then hesitantly followed her.
Huang Jie changed into a skirt specially for the social dinner today, but this did not affect her bold steps.
So, just when Gu Xun was about to grab Yue Qianling's wrist again, he suddenly heard a sudden "cough".
The two turned around and saw Huang Jie with her hands folded in front of her chest, looking at them with a smile.
Yue Qianling was a little bit at a loss for what to do with this weird smile. She subconsciously pulled her hand away, opened her eyes awkwardly, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
When Huang Jie saw this, she sneered in her heart.
Her chilly gaze swept over the two of them, finally settling on the sound of Yue Qianling's wrist, and she said slowly, "What are you two doing here instead of going home after get off work?"
Seeing that Yue Qianling didn't say anything, Huang Jie took two or three steps over and stood between her and Gu Xun.
"Didn't we agree to have dinner together tonight? I've been waiting for you for a long time and I wondered where you were going."
Yue Qianling: “Ah?”
Huang Jie sighed in frustration.
This girl is really good at blowing bubbles. What a waste of such a pretty face.
"It's so hot, why are you staying in this parking lot? Is there a sea here for you to swim?" After saying that, she turned around and looked at Gu Xun with a smile, "It's so hot, aren't you going to see your girlfriend after get off work?"
Gu Xun glanced at Huang Jie, and after a moment, he suddenly smiled.
"Yes, of course I'll find a girlfriend after get off work."
"Then go quickly, don't keep your girlfriend waiting for too long, otherwise she'll think you're doing something sneaky."
She took Yue Qianling's arm and waved to Gu Xun, "Then we'll leave first. We still have to go to the social gathering tonight. I heard that there are a lot of handsome guys here today. I'll help Qianling find one quickly, so that some people won't miss her."
After she finished speaking, she winked at Yue Qianling and said, "I heard that the boys who came today are all pretty good. They may not have deceptive looks, but their personalities are all decent."
Now that things have come to this, how could Yue Qianling still not understand what Huang Jie meant.
But before she could say anything, Huang Jie pulled her away.
At this moment, Gu Xun suddenly reached out and grabbed Yue Qianling's wrist.
Feeling Gu Xun's movements, Huang Jie calmly pulled Yue Qianling's hand away, turned around and glared at her, but her tone was still polite: "What are you doing? Is there anything else? If you have something to say, just talk to Ding Ding. After all, we are just colleagues. Otherwise, it would be so embarrassing if your girlfriend found out."
Before Gu Xun could reply, Huang Jie said in a tactful tone, persuading the scumbag to turn back: "Oh, of course, I know you guys are fine, but girls tend to overthink."
Gu Xun glanced at his hand hanging in the air, tilted his head and smiled, with a hint of grievance in his voice.
"Qian Ling, if you don't give me a name, tomorrow the whole company will know that I'm a two-timing scumbag."
Huang Jie & Yi Hong: “……?”
Yue Qianling: “…”
She originally just didn't want to make it public, but she didn't expect things to be misinterpreted like this.
At this moment, she didn't know what to say. She just blushed and used her other hand to hook Gu Xun's little finger, and then little by little, held his palm.
After a fatal second of silence, Huang Jie looked up.
"You guys..." A supercar passed by, and the roar exploded in Huang Jie's mind. She had already built an Egyptian pyramid under her feet, and she was speaking with her mind, "You and him...you two...could it be..."
Yue Qianling nodded with a red face.
"……yes."
Huang Jie looked down at Yue Qianling's hand, which she was holding tightly, and then at Gu Xun's hand. She squeezed out a sentimental and gentle smile amidst the brainstorming of "Grandpa Xiao Ming lived to be 99 because he didn't meddle in other people's business", "I might as well dig a hole in the ground and run away", and "What should I write in my resignation letter"——
She pulled up Gu Xun's wrist, placed it in Yue Qianling's palm, and then patted the back of Gu Xun's hand seriously.
"very nice."
"I knew Gu Xun wouldn't be that kind of person."
"I am here today to sincerely wish you a happy marriage, a happy marriage, and a son soon."
