Chapter 422 I can also give you these

Gui Qing didn't reply and hung up the phone on the spot. Then she opened her computer to look at the document he sent her and gave her feedback despite having a high fever.

Jiang Yuxu's reply was just two words: "Received".

Gui Qing looked at these two words and laughed out loud. She was not the type of person who would be sad because of a man. Jiang Yuxu's behavior would not hurt her, but would just make her feel funny.

This is the first time I have met someone who loves work so much. It seems like there is nothing else on his mind except work. It is hard to imagine how boring such a person's life is in his daily life.

Gui Qing also knew that she had no place in his heart. From then on, if she felt uncomfortable in any way, she would not tell Jiang Yuxu. It would only make her feel bored anyway, and she was not happy to beg for concern.

She liked him very much, but no matter how much she liked someone, she would not beg for a response from the other person. It was not in her style.

Fortunately, she has a good physical condition and recovered from the H1N1 flu in about a week. After adapting to the climate of the northern city for more than a year, she has not been sick this winter and has even been able to attend outdoor music festivals in the middle of winter.

"Mr. Qing, aren't you going to eat?" Gui Qing's recollection was interrupted by his colleague's question.

She came back to her senses and glanced at the computer. It was almost twelve o'clock. "No, I'll have a sandwich for lunch. You guys go ahead."

It just so happened that she wasn't very hungry today, so she just had to make do with whatever she wanted.

During lunch break, most of the office colleagues had left. Gui Qing took the sandwich that Jiang Yuxu had given her in the morning and went to the tea room. After heating the sandwich, she took a cup of black tea and sat down at the bar in the tea room.

The pace of work in the law firm is fast, and there is a cafeteria downstairs, so almost no one brings their own lunch, and the tea room is particularly quiet at noon.

Gui Qing slowly finished a sandwich and drank two sips of tea.

Just as I put down the cup and was about to get up, someone else came into the tea room.

When she saw Jiang Yuxu, Gui Qing stopped what she was doing, her eyes fell on him, and she looked at him with her arms folded across her chest.

Jiang Yuxu looked very tired and in poor condition, and it was obvious that he was sick.

He walked a few steps to the other side of the bar, put his hands on the marble table, leaned over slightly to look at her, and his eyes behind the glasses seemed to reveal resentment.

Gui Qing saw it and guessed where the resentment came from, but she didn't intend to respond.

Although she would not be sad or upset because of some of his behaviors, she would still hold a grudge.

She had to pay him back for everything she had experienced before. This was just an appetizer. Compared with his previous coldness and indifference, she had been very considerate.

"Lawyer Jiang didn't go to eat?" Gui Qing looked at him and asked casually.

Jiang Yuxu stared at her and moved his lips: "I'm not feeling well and have no appetite."

"Oh, I see." Gui Qing nodded without any extra expression.

Jiang Yuxu almost couldn't catch his breath, and his breathing became rapid and heavy.

Because of his cold, his breathing was heavier than usual, and this stimulation made it even more exaggerated.

Gui Qing listened to his suppressed breathing and felt that he would suffocate to death at any time.

Before she could react, her cell phone started vibrating.

Gui Qing glanced at the screen and saw that it was a call from Xie Yuan.

She felt that Jiang Yuxu was also looking at her, so she curled the corners of her mouth and answered the phone in front of him, her fingers inadvertently pressing the volume of the receiver to the maximum.

If he likes to listen, let him listen more.

"I'm at SKP. The bag you liked last time has arrived. Can I buy it for you?"

The tea room was exceptionally quiet. Jiang Yuxu and Gui Qing were only separated by a bar table, less than a meter.

He heard the voice on the other end of the phone clearly.

Then, he immediately guessed the other person's identity.

That old man.

"Okay, thank you for your generosity, Mr. Xie." Gui Qing's voice sounded very happy.

"Can you get off work on time tonight?" Xie Yuan asked her habitually: "What do you want to eat? I'll prepare it and wait for you."

"Just give me some grass to eat, Mr. Xie. Don't feed me anymore. I've gained five kilograms since you two came to stay with me for half a month." Gui Qing was speechless when this matter was mentioned.

But as Jiang Yuxu listened to the conversation between the two, his expression became increasingly grim.

Originally just his face was blue, but now his mouth is purple too.

When he brought her sandwiches in the morning, she said she had eaten at home - so the old man was the one who cooked?

Listening to their conversation, it seems that the man has been cooking for her recently.

They still live together - what is their relationship?

While Jiang Yuxu was thinking, Gui Qing had already hung up the phone.

The corners of her mouth were still raised, and it was obvious that she was very happy on the phone.

After finishing the call, Gui Qing stood up to leave.

Jiang Yuxu walked around the bar, stood in front of her, and grabbed her wrist.

He didn't say anything, but pursed his lips and stared at her intently, with a look of forbearance on his face.

You can see that he is almost suffocating.

Gui Qing looked at his mouth which seemed to be glued, and tried to pull her hand back calmly.

Jiang Yuxu held on tighter and refused to let go.

Gui Qing also tried harder.

Jiang Yuxu pulled her forward and wrapped his other arm around her waist.

He lowered his head, his nose almost touching hers.

Gui Qing turned her head and said, "Stay away from me."

You have a cold, so you're standing so close to her, are you afraid you won't be able to infect her?

Jiang Yuxu didn't expect this.

Gui Qing's words sounded like a rejection to him, and when compared with her attitude on the phone just now, the gap was even greater.

He was already running a fever, and this stimulation made his head even hotter.

"Who were you talking to on the phone just now?" he demanded.

Gui Qing: "My dad."

Jiang Yuxu gritted his teeth and said, "Do I look like a fool?"

He had just met her father a few days ago, and not only did she lie to him, she didn't even bother to think of making up a story!

Gui Qing shrugged, "If you don't believe it, forget it."

Jiang Yuxu: "You live with him?"

Gui Qing: "We are a family, is there a problem with living together?"

Jiang Yuxu thought of the information he had found, suddenly tightened his arms, and pulled her forward again.

He stared at her intently and squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth: "He is married, did you know?"

Gui Qing: "I know, I even know his wife."

Jiang Yuxu was so angry that his temples began to throb. "What are you thinking about?"

Gui Qing: "Now I should ask you what you are thinking about."

She lowered her eyes to glance at his hand and said, "Let me go. Lunch break is almost over. If your colleagues come back and see you holding onto me, it will damage your image."

Jiang Yuxu didn't listen to her and kept talking to himself: "What do you want?"

"I can give you these, but you should draw a clear line between yourself and him." He said this with difficulty and hoarseness.

Gui Qing chuckled, with a hint of sarcasm in her laughter.

She raised her head and said, "Lawyer Jiang thinks I'm being kept by someone."

Jiang Yuxu: "I——"

"That's right, I'm being kept. Jiang Lu's family is upright, so you'd better stop pursuing me. It would be embarrassing if it gets out." Gui Qing interrupted him, raised her hand and patted his arm, saying coldly, "Let go."
