After returning home, Cheng Qicai put the cake the two had given her in the refrigerator, intending to save it for breakfast the next day.
Cheng Qicai's mind was still filled with the image of Gu Rongqi's lonely figure as he left.
The more Cheng Qicai thought about it, the more she felt that she was really ungrateful. Gu Rongqi was always very good to her, but she made excuses and acted like she was being difficult.
No wonder Gu Rongqi felt that she didn't really consider him a friend, but that's just how she's been since she was little, and she really didn't know how to get along with her!
I feel like I'm a bad person.
Cheng Qicai lay on the bed with a long sigh, her mind filled with complicated and chaotic thoughts. Even as she drifted off to sleep, she was still thinking about this problem.
Perhaps because she thought about Gu Rongqi too many times before going to sleep, Cheng Qicai actually dreamed about him that night.
The scene was the same, but the difference was that after Gu Rongqi asked that question, he didn't turn around and leave.
After waiting for a long time without receiving her reply, Gu Rongqi hunched his shoulders, took a step closer to her, and tears welled up in his usually deep eyes, falling with a "plop".
With a trembling voice, he asked her, "Don't you really consider me a friend?"
Seeing the falling tears, Cheng Qicai was deeply moved. If it weren't for the moisture still in his eyes and the unformed teardrops clinging to his eyelashes, she would have thought it was an illusion.
At that moment, only one thought popped into my mind: I actually made Gu Rongqi cry!
Cheng Qicai's heart skipped a beat, and she hurriedly said in a flustered voice, "No, no, you are my best friend, none of them are as good as you."
"Really?" Gu Rongqi asked in a trembling voice, his voice filled with unspeakable grievances.
Cheng Qicai nodded vigorously, and even reached out to wipe away the tears on his face, gently coaxing Gu Rongqi, who was weeping uncontrollably.
She spoke sweet words for a long time, until her mouth was dry, before Gu Rongqi's crying gradually subsided and turned into occasional sobs.
"Alright then, I definitely want to be with you the best, none of them will do." Gu Rongqi's tone was firm yet aggrieved, like a spoiled child asking for candy, saying childish and possessive things.
Cheng Qicai nodded.
Seeing that she agreed, Gu Rongqi burst into laughter through his tears and went up to hug her.
The moment she felt the warmth, Cheng Qicai woke up instantly.
She was shocked by the dream, shocked for a long time, wondering how she could have such a crazy dream.
Thinking about the content of her dream, she was instantly overcome with embarrassment and pulled the blanket over her head.
The blanket blocked out the air, but it couldn't stop her surging memories.
ah! ! !
Good heavens, what a terrible dream she had!
The Gu Rongqi in the dream was a complete departure from his usual persona. Just thinking about how he was crying in the dream made Cheng Qicai feel like she deserved to die for making him look like that in her dream.
Could it be that I'm a little afraid of him in real life, so I'm making him seem much weaker in my dreams?
But this is too much of a downplaying; he's made himself look like a crybaby.
Moreover, their conversation was so awkward, it made her want to escape to outer space.
I should have stopped thinking about him before going to bed last night.
It's not like she had such a terrifying dream.
Cheng Qicai shivered awkwardly under the covers, then suddenly threw them off and sat up abruptly.
I don't want to think about it anymore! I don't want to think about it anymore!
I should get up and do something else to distract myself.
As a result, I got up too early today and worked so hard that I forgot about work hours.
If it weren't for the latest alarm clock going off, she would still be at home, huffing and puffing as she tidied up her room.
I woke up early one day, but almost ended up being late.
Nothing could be worse than this.
As Cheng Qicai jogged into the company to clock in, she silently prayed that Gu Rongqi wouldn't come today.
Seeing the closed door to Gu Liji's office, she breathed a sigh of relief and tidied her disheveled hair.
It seems Gu Rongqi hasn't arrived yet today.
When Gu Rongqi comes, his habit is to arrive at the office ten minutes early in the morning, and then leave the office door open for a while.
That way, he would know as soon as he arrived.
She stepped into the office with peace of mind and saw Lin Fengjie already at his workstation. She greeted him.
She took out the pork floss cake that Ren Baiping had given her yesterday. "Brother Lin, have a pork floss cake!"
"Thank you!" Lin Fengjie took one. "One is enough. I've already had breakfast."
There was a knock on the door.
Cheng Qicai turned her head and saw Gu Rongqi and Li Gui standing at the door, with a meat floss cake in her hand.
Cheng Qicai glanced at the meat floss bun, then at Gu Rongqi, and forced a greeting, "Good morning, President Gu! Secretary Li!"
When Cheng Qicai was caught eating breakfast during work hours, she instantly felt like she was doomed.
Gu Rongqi walked in, saw the pork floss cake in her hand, and asked, "Didn't you have breakfast?"
"No," Cheng Qicai replied awkwardly, handing over the pork floss cake she was holding. "Would you like a pork floss cake?"
As Gu Rongqi walked towards her, Cheng Qicai instantly recalled the image of him approaching her with tears in his eyes, as if to embrace her.
Ugh, why are you thinking so fast with that rigid mind!
The edge of the box twitched slightly, and a compartment inside instantly emptied. Gu Rongqi's deep voice came from above, "Thank you!"
Cheng Qicai then moved the box to Li Gui, who was next to Gu Rongqi, and said, "Secretary Li, you should try some too."
"Thank you!" Li Gui smiled gently and took out a piece from inside as well.
Gu Rongqi looked at the shape of the box and asked, "The cake from last night?"
"Hmm." Cheng Qicai nodded. When he asked her that, Cheng Qicai immediately remembered what happened last night, and then her dream last night.
