Chapter 56: Date, stood up
Guo Yueze sighed, "I never thought that the devil who made trouble for the world since childhood would be the white moonlight that you, Gu Beiyan, have secretly loved for many years."
He had always thought that someone like Gu Beiyan would like someone who was cool and noble. Who could have imagined that he would set his sights on a junior who was so much younger than him.
Gu Beiyan lowered his head to work and took the time to correct it.
"My wife."
Guo Yueze nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, yes, she is your wife, and you never said she isn't. I can't wait to tell the world all day long."
What Guo Yueze still remembers vividly is that one winter when he was going home from school, he passed by Xu's house and saw that the Xu family was holding a funeral.
I thought something had happened to the Xu family, but when I got closer I realized that all those crying were servants.
And the thing on the chest was not white cloth, but toilet paper.
Xu Nansheng was the one crying the loudest at the scene, holding a hibernating turtle in his hands.
He thought it was fun and hid nearby to watch Xu Nansheng dig a hole and bury the hibernating turtle.
Gu Hongyu, who was still a child at that time, stood by and comforted her like a little master.
"It's okay. Little Turtle will miss you in Paradise too."
When he heard this, Guo Yueze almost burst out laughing.
Afraid that the turtle's fake death would become real death, Guo Yueze was about to remind Xiao Shengsheng, but when he turned around, he caught a glimpse of Gu Beiyan squatting on the ground, digging the soil with his hands.
His skin was originally fair, and it was winter, so his hands were frozen red when he held the turtle in his hands. But as he looked at the turtle in his hands, there was a light in his eyes and he smiled brightly.
That was the first time Guo Yueze saw Gu Beiyan smile, so the memory was vivid.
"By the way, do you still keep the turtle that your sister-in-law has? Does she know that you robbed its tomb?"
Hearing this, Gu Beiyan paused in his writing, looked up, and was stunned for a moment.
"How do you know?"
Guo Yueze was stunned for a moment, then suddenly stood up.
"Fuck, Gu Beiyan, so you didn't know for all these years that I was the one standing next to you when you were robbing the tomb?"
He had always felt that he and Gu Beiyan had a special connection and had always kept this as a secret between them!
Gu Beiyan thought about it carefully, but still couldn't remember that there was someone next to him.
But considering Guo Yueze's face, he nodded and pretended to remember.
"Yes, she still keeps it at home, but she hasn't discovered yet that it is the little turtle she buried that year."
At that time, it was all because of Gu Hongyu's stupid idea, which said that the turtle was dead and if it was not buried, it would affect its reincarnation.
Otherwise, Xu Nansheng’s turtle would not have fallen into his hands.
Guo Yueze had a date, so he sat in the office for a short while and then left.
But the word "date" kept lingering in Gu Beiyan's mind.
You can't just do it every day to get closer to each other, so having a date would be a good idea too.
Xu Nansheng was busy when she received Gu Beiyan's invitation for a date.
He took a quick glance, replied "OK", and then rushed into his work.
It was not until around nine o'clock in the evening that I finally finished my work and clocked out with Amber and the others.
"What's wrong?"
Xu Nansheng scratched his head, "I always feel like I'm missing something."
"Did you forget something?"
Xu Nansheng looked at the bag in his hand and said, "Probably not."
When he got home and saw Gu Beiyan sitting on the sofa in the living room reading economic reports seriously, Xu Nansheng suddenly remembered.
It seemed like she had accidentally stood up Gu Beiyan.
He approached with a guilty conscience and sat down beside him.
"Didn't you go to see the movie?"
Gu Beiyan didn't look up, but kept turning the pages.
"My wife wasn't going, so why should I go? I just happened to run into an acquaintance of mine, and she said she wanted to see it, so I gave her the ticket."
Gu Beiyan had much more things to do than her, but he still found time to ask her to see a movie. However, she was so busy with work that she forgot about it.
How could Xu Nansheng not feel guilty?
She came over with a smile, tilted her head to look at him from bottom to top, and tried to make conversation.
"Which acquaintance is it? Do I know him?"
"The daughter of the Zhou family."
Xu Nansheng thought carefully, the Zhou family had only one daughter, who was five years older than her and had never been in a relationship. It was rumored that Miss Zhou liked Gu Beiyan so much that she would not marry anyone else, and she had done many things to pursue him, both openly and secretly.
Xu Nansheng thought about this and spoke faster than his brain.
"Doesn't Zhou Mengyao like you? Didn't she say she wanted to watch it with you?"
If someone said they met by chance, Xu Nansheng didn't believe it.
Maybe he knew Gu Beiyan was watching a movie and went there on purpose to meet him.
Can Miss Zhou not afford a movie ticket?
When I said I wanted to watch it, I just meant I wanted to watch it with Gu Beiyan.
Xu Nansheng is very experienced in this regard.
She had made an appointment with Gu Hongyu to watch a movie before, but Qi Yue was harassed by a scumbag. Xu Nansheng rushed to save her best friend, but it was a little late when she arrived at the cinema.
She thought about waiting for Gu Hongyu to come out and explain to him, but she saw Gu Hongyu and Liang Xueqing talking and laughing in the crowd. While talking and laughing, Liang Xueqing put her hand on Gu Hongyu's arm and leaned towards him.
If he hadn't seen Xu Nansheng first, his head would probably have rested on his shoulder.
Gu Hongyu explained that Xu Nansheng was not coming, and he happened to meet Liang Xueqing, who had always wanted to watch this movie, so they watched it together.
At this moment, Gu Beiyan finally raised his head from the report, and suddenly leaned closer, his nose lightly touching hers, and as his lips opened and closed, he brushed against hers through the air.
"Mrs. Gu, it has nothing to do with me if other people like me, but I still remember clearly that I am a married man."
Seeing himself shrinking in his black pupils, Xu Nansheng suddenly felt guilty.
In this case, it seems like she is petty and jealous.
But before he could say anything to argue, Gu Beiyan suddenly stood up.
"Let's go."
She stood up and asked, "Where are you going?"
"I didn't know when you would finish your work, so I went home to wait for you. Now that you're off work, we still have time to go to the cinema."
In order to make up for the guilt of standing him up, Xu Nansheng sat in the passenger seat and started buying the ticket on the mobile app, and then proudly showed him the successful ticket purchase interface.
"I've bought it."
"Well, thank you ma'am for treating me to the movie. That way, we're even now."
Xu Nansheng raised his eyes and noticed the slightly raised corners of his mouth, and was a little surprised.
I didn’t expect that although Gu Beiyan looked cold, he was actually so easy to coax.
After watching the movie, they went out for a midnight snack and it was already midnight when they got home.
Xu Nansheng was so sleepy that he fell asleep in the car, and was carried out by Gu Beiyan when he got out of the car.
It was not until the alarm clock rang at eight o'clock the next day that Xu Nansheng opened his eyes in a daze.
But she wasn't fully awake yet, so she reached out and turned off the ticking alarm clock.
She felt a little regretful now. It was really not worth it to work like a slave from 8 am to 6 pm just to take care of Liang Xueqing.
I pulled the quilt over me and dozed off for a short while, thinking I would get up after another five minutes, but when I opened my eyes, it was already half past eight.
She pushed away Gu Beiyan, who had just washed her face, and rushed to the bathroom in a hurry.
"Ahhh why didn't you call me."
Gu Beiyan followed her in, put his arms around her waist from behind, and looked at her through the mirror.
"Don't panic, there's still time."
"I'm going to the countryside today, and I may not be back in time for dinner."
Her casual report became the sugar that nourished Gu Beiyan throughout the whole day.
"Oh, then drive carefully. The roads in the countryside are not that easy to drive on."
