Chapter 122: Worse than Us
Considering that Gu Huaichen still had work to do, Lin Youning did not insist too much on holding him for fifteen minutes.
Five minutes later, she slipped out of his arms and said she wanted to go to sleep.
Gu Huaichen couldn't do anything with her, so he smiled helplessly and said, "Go ahead, I'll be outside."
Lin Youning nodded and walked into the lounge as if he knew the way.
Watching the door of the lounge close, Gu Huaichen picked up his phone and sent a message to his assistant: [Let me know before you come in, don’t knock. ]
Yang Xingxue: [Okay, Mr. Gu.]
While Lin Youning was sleeping, Gu Huaichen was outside handling official business.
When she woke up, it was already past four in the afternoon.
The moment she opened her eyes, Lin Youning was a little confused about where she was. But soon, she reacted.
There were many unread messages in her mobile phone. Duan Yingzhen and Su Ran both sent her messages asking her what she was doing. In addition to the two of them, there were also messages from Zhang Xiuran.
Lin Youning thought for a moment and only replied to the messages from his two friends, and did not reply to Zhang Xiuran for the time being.
After replying, she listened to the noise outside and sent a message to the person in the office outside: [Boss Gu, are you done with your work? ]
After the message was sent, Lin Youning did not wait for Gu Huaichen's reply, but waited until he pushed open the door of the lounge and entered.
The two of them, one above and one below, made eye contact.
Seeing Lin Youning's confused expression, Gu Huaichen curled his lips slightly and walked over to sit next to her. "Did you just wake up?"
Lin Youning nodded, "Are you done?"
"Almost." Gu Huaichen looked down at her, "Will you get up?"
Lin Youning hummed vaguely and stretched out her hand to him.
Gu Huaichen smiled and pulled her up from the bed, "Mrs. Gu."
Lin Youning was dazed when he just woke up, and his mind was working very slowly. "What?"
Gu Huaichen did not answer her. He just lowered his head, kissed her lips, and said, "Go wash up."
“…”
Lin Youning didn't even have time to savor the moment before Gu Huaichen turned around decisively and continued to work.
Walking into the bathroom, Lin Youning raised her eyes to look at herself in the mirror, touched her ear a little unnaturally, and complained in her heart - Gu Huaichen must have done it on purpose, deliberately disturbing her heart.
But she still had no way to hold him accountable.
After a quick wash, Lin Youning walked out.
What she didn't expect was that when she walked out, Gu Huaichen's assistant just pushed the door open.
“…”
After they exchanged a glance, Yang Xingxue called out in a well-trained manner, "Madam."
He was so calm, Lin Youning also nodded calmly, "Assistant Yang."
Gu Huaichen glanced at the two of them and reached out to Yang Xingxue, "Are these what you need to sign before leaving get off work?"
Yang Xingxue responded.
Yang Xingxue put the documents down and left. Lin Youning slowly walked to Gu Huaichen's side and looked at the pile of documents. "Is there so much more to look at?"
Gu Huaichen: “Very soon.”
He raised his eyes and looked at Lin Youning, "Think about where to go later?"
"?"
Lin Youning was startled, a little confused, "Aren't you going home?"
"Want to go home for dinner?" Gu Huaichen asked, "I can get off work on time, is there anywhere else you want to go?"
Hearing what Gu Huaichen said, Lin Youning blinked slowly, "You mean, eat outside?"
Gu Huaichen said lightly, "Do you want to?"
Gu Huaichen’s meaning was very clear: he would listen to Lin Youning in everything.
If Lin Youning wanted to eat outside, they would eat outside. If Lin Youning didn't want to, they would go home to eat.
Lin Youning hesitated for a while and chose to go outside.
There were many people at home, and she wanted to spend some more time alone with Gu Huaichen outside.
But their world of two was not successful in the end. When they went to the Sunset Restaurant on the tallest building in the city center to have dinner, they happened to run into Yin Jin who was on a date with his girlfriend.
When he introduced his girlfriend next to him, Lin Youning was still a little confused.
When I met Yin Jin not long ago, he didn't have a girlfriend. How come he suddenly has a girlfriend?
Of course, she didn't show it in front of the girl. When the two of them got up to go to the bathroom, she turned her head and asked Gu Huaichen, "When did Mr. Yin get a girlfriend?"
Gu Huaichen looked at her curious expression and chuckled, "I don't know."
Lin Youning was dumbfounded, "You don't know anything?"
Gu Huaichen hummed, "He changes girlfriends several times a year, it's hard for me to know."
In fact, the main reason is that Gu Huaichen never cares about the lives of his friends.
Yin Jin himself loves to play, of course he is not the kind of person who plays for fun, he will make it clear to the other party at the early stage of the relationship that he is not a long-lasting person, he just needs to talk about love when he feels empty occasionally.
During a relationship, people will try their best to provide each other with what they want.
In other words, everyone gets what they need.
He needs companionship, and the other party needs resources or money.
Therefore, although Yin Jin has had many relationships, his ex-girlfriends still praise him for his generosity and being a perfect boyfriend during the relationship.
Lin Youning: “…”
Thinking of the comments about Yin Jin in the circle, she couldn't help but ask, "Does he intend to continue playing like this for the rest of his life?"
Gu Huaichen: “Not sure.”
He paused, lowered his eyelashes and asked her, "Does it feel uncomfortable?"
"..." Hearing this question, Lin Youning was stunned for a moment, a little surprised.
She thought about it seriously for a moment and shook her head. "He's not cheating on me, and he hasn't done anything unfaithful. I don't feel anything about a little more romance."
She didn't like Lin Mingqi and hated Jian Cheng because one of them was unfaithful in marriage and the other was cheating on her and refused to admit it.
Although she didn't like or approve of people like Yin Jin being in love, she didn't have any opinion about him.
Besides, Yin Jin is a very pleasant person to be friends with.
After he finished speaking, Lin Youning asked with a bit of amusement, "If I say I'm not feeling well, will Mr. Gu stop associating with him?"
Gu Huaichen was silent for a moment, "No."
He is also very honest.
However, if Lin Youning was uncomfortable with Yin Jin's behavior, he would reduce the number of times they met and avoid mentioning him in front of Lin Youning.
Although she had expected Gu Huaichen's answer, when she heard it in person, Lin Youning was still a little speechless, "...No way, why are you asking me?"
Gu Huaichen looked at her angry look and pinched her fingers, "Sorry."
"What's there to be sorry about?" Lin Youning glanced at him, "If you could do that, I would think you're unreliable."
The friendship of so many years was broken in an instant. It was obvious at first glance that this person was no good.
Gu Huaichen laughed dumbly.
The two were whispering when Yin Jin, who had gone to the bathroom with his girlfriend, came back.
"What are you talking about?" He looked at their heads put together and raised his eyebrows. "Say something bad about me?"
Gu Huaichen glanced at him and said, "You have become smarter today."
Hearing this, Yin Jin couldn't help but exclaimed, "Boss Gu, that's too much."
Gu Huaichen curled his lips and wanted to say something, but Yin Jin's girlfriend also came back.
Dinner for four was quite good.
Although Lin Youning is not a particularly outgoing person, she is not so socially anxious that she dares not talk to the other party.
Besides, Yin Jin’s girlfriend was good at finding topics to chat with, so after the meal, no one felt awkward.
After they had almost finished eating, Yin Jin said he had an appointment with his girlfriend to watch a play, so he had to leave first.
Watching the two of them leave, Lin Youning couldn't help but say, "They look quite a good match."
Gu Huaichen naturally replied, "A little worse than us."
