Chapter 184 But I Still Like Him
After Gu Zhiyuan returned to the restaurant, he didn't eat anything and just kept drinking.
She believed in Jiang Yuan.
However, after drinking a glass of wine, she looked down and thought, this wine is sweet, can it make you drunk?
While the two weren't paying attention, she poured herself another full glass.
When they finished their meal and were about to leave, Gu Zhiyuan suddenly burped.
Shen Xubai looked over and saw her looking at him with a pair of big watery eyes, her cheeks stained with a layer of pink, and her eyes were a little blurry.
He glanced at the empty wine bottle beside him and frowned, wondering how much he had drunk.
Zhou Qingling stood aside with her arms folded, looking very excited: "Hey, little sister is drunk?"
Shen Xubai looked over and she shrugged: "It's not me who made her drink it, it's you who didn't take good care of her."
Shen Xubai bent down and spoke to Gu Zhiyuan: "Miss Gu, can you still walk?"
Gu Zhiyuan tilted her head, looked at him for a long moment, and suddenly smiled and stretched out her hand towards him: "Hug..."
A trace of surprise flashed across Shen Xubai's eyes, and he felt a little embarrassed.
Gu Zhiyuan pursed her lips, looking like she was about to burst into tears: "My dad always hugged me before, you bad guy!"
Zhou Qingling on the side couldn't help laughing out loud. "I think of you as my dad, haha. But considering your age, you're almost the same."
Shen Xubai glanced at her coldly: "Are you here just to watch the fun today?"
Zhou Qingling twirled the car keys between her fingers. "What else? I finally see a member of the opposite sex around you, and she's a cute little girl. Can't I gossip about her?"
And, most importantly, Shen Xubai treated her differently, unlike the women who had been directly rejected in the past.
Apart from his work colleagues, which woman could walk directly into his office and talk about work without avoiding him?
Although Shen Xubai acted very indifferent, some subconscious indulgence could not deceive people.
No matter how hard the iceberg is, once it has a small crack and shows signs of melting, isn't it only a matter of time before it turns into a pool of soft water?
Shen Xubai sighed helplessly: "I think you are not busy enough at work."
He helped Gu Zhiyuan up, held her shoulders and led her out, and Gu Zhiyuan leaned into his arms.
Shen Xubai's body stiffened and he quickened his pace.
After helping Gu Zhiyuan into the car, Shen Xubai looked at Zhou Qingling: "What are you doing?"
Zhou Qingling: "I called a designated driver."
"Then be careful on the road." After saying that, Shen Xubai bent down and prepared to get in the car, but was suddenly stopped by her.
He turned around: "Anything else?"
Zhou Qingling smiled and said, "This girl obviously likes you. Do you really have no interest in her at all?"
Shen Xubai raised his eyes, and looked at her with silence in his eyes: "She is still a little girl."
A little girl who has not yet entered society and is uncertain.
She could mess around, but he couldn't.
Zhou Qingling raised her eyebrows slightly: "Is there any necessary connection between the two?"
Shen Xubai's dark eyes paused for a moment, and without replying to her, he said "Be careful" and bent down to get into the car.
Zhou Qingling had a playful expression: "Same old as always, boring."
After saying that, he got into his car.
…
Shen Xubai had drunk some wine, and Luo Yan was driving.
In the back seat, Gu Zhiyuan was staggering and unable to keep her balance. Shen Xubai held her shoulders and tried to fasten her seat belt.
But Gu Zhiyuan refused to cooperate at all and poured it directly on him.
He reached out to pull the seat belt, and Gu Zhiyuan threw herself into his arms, holding his waist tightly with both hands, not letting go.
Shen Xubai frowned: "Miss Gu..."
Gu Zhiyuan frowned and said, "My name is Zhizhi! Miss Gu, Miss Gu, who is Miss Gu?"
Shen Xubai felt a little helpless and tried to negotiate with her: "Can you get up first? I'll take you home."
Gu Zhiyuan raised her eyes to look at him, angrily saying, "Then you call me Zhizhi first."
Shen Xubai sighed, pursed his thin lips, and couldn't say anything.
Gu Zhiyuan buried her head in his arms, burying her face and refusing to look up: "Then I won't get up."
He looks like a scoundrel yet self-righteous.
Shen Xubai had never faced such a difficult situation when facing projects worth hundreds of millions of yuan.
Luo Yan was driving in the front seat, listening to the conversation in the back seat with his ears perked up, glancing at the rearview mirror from time to time.
Miss Gu is so brave!!!
Shen Xubai looked at her black hair and moved his fingers slightly. The distance between them was too close, which was beyond the normal limit.
He closed his eyelids slightly and spoke slowly: "...Zhizhi."
His voice was clear and deep, with a hint of magnetism. Gu Zhiyuan's ears twitched, and she suddenly raised her head and smiled at him foolishly: "You call me so beautifully, I will call you like this from now on."
Luo Yan, who was driving, trembled in his hands: Is this something he can hear?
Shen Xubai took the opportunity to pull the seat belt over and buckle it on her, then retreated to his seat, a little further away from her.
Gu Zhiyuan pouted, somewhat dissatisfied. Her mind was dizzy, she knew what she was doing, but also seemed not to know.
At the intersection ahead, Gu Zhiyuan suddenly struggled: "Not here! Not going back here!"
Luo Yan subconsciously slowed down the car, but it was obvious that the Gu family was heading in this direction.
Gu Zhiyuan muttered, "I won't go back home. I have to go back to take care of Hao Yunlai."
Because Gu's mother was allergic to dog hair and was always sneezing, Good Luck couldn't roam freely in every corner of the house, so she moved with Good Luck to another villa. However, she had only moved there for a few days and she herself was not very familiar with it.
There was some doubt between Shen Xubai's eyebrows: "Good luck?"
Gu Zhiyuan quickly took out her phone and entered the password several times before unlocking it. She frantically flipped through the photos and handed them to him: "My new dog, isn't it super cute?"
Shen Xubai remembered the puppy she picked up that night, whose name was Good Luck?
He nodded: "Where do you live now?"
"Finish looking at the photos first."
Gu Zhiyuan scanned the pictures one by one. Some showed Good Luck lying on the ground sleeping, some showed it playing with a ball, and some showed it nestling in Gu Zhiyuan's arms and acting coquettishly...
The puppy's eyes are black and shiny, and its hair is well-groomed. It looks soft and cute.
Looking at those wet eyes, for a moment, Shen Xubai actually felt that they were very similar to Gu Zhiyuan.
"Look, isn't it cute?"
She continued to scroll back, and when she saw the last photo, Shen Xubai was suddenly stunned.
This is... the photo Gu Zhiyuan secretly took of himself in the afternoon.
Gu Zhiyuan looked at the photo, then at him, thought for two seconds, and suddenly said, "You two look alike."
"It's just that the temperament is a little different."
"You have a better temper than his."
Shen Xubai: "..."
"He is fierce and cold." Gu Zhiyuan complained, and suddenly lowered his voice.
"But I still like him..."
