"Are you polite to your boyfriend?" Gu Henzhi's voice sounded again after a two-second pause.
After hearing this, Shen Mian raised the corners of her mouth slightly, but did not refute.
The two briefly exchanged a few words before hanging up the communication.
Shen Mian originally wanted to look outside, but when she turned her head, she suddenly met Qiao Jiaying's gaze.
"What's wrong? Did I just disturb you?" The smile on her face was still there, her voice was apologetic, and her whole person looked much softer than before she came back. There was some chaos outside at the moment, and they were the only two people in the lounge, so she didn't go out.
Qiao Jiaying didn't expect that the other party would suddenly raise his head, and his gaze caught him as a sign. Her cheeks suddenly started to heat up and she shook her head quickly.
"No." She was not paying attention.
"That's good." Shen Mian smiled at her before looking back.
A few seconds later, I suddenly heard a little girl not far away asking in a low voice: "Is that Sister Shen's boyfriend just now?"
"Huh?" Shen Mian was stunned for a moment and quickly realized what she was asking.
Her hesitation only took up a small amount of time, and she immediately reacted: "That's right."
"So?" What is this statement? Qiao Jiaying didn't quite understand. But that's not what she wanted to ask: "Why did you tell him now that you were in danger before? And if your boyfriend is not around when such a thing happens, you still have to thank him. I just feel... a bit... …”
Qiao Jiaying didn't know what words to use to explain what she was thinking.
Although she has never been in love, her impression seems to be that the relationship between male and female friends should not be like this.
Sister Shen is a good person and she deserves a good boyfriend.
If the other party doesn't cherish it...
Shen Mian saw that this girl seemed to be trying to vindicate herself. She recalled the content of the call she had just had with Gu Henzhi, and it didn't take long to understand what the other party was concerned about.
Thinking of this, she chuckled: "Well, what kind of existence does Xiaoying think a boyfriend should be?"
Qiao Jiaying was stunned by her sudden question and did not realize how the other party's topic suddenly changed to this.
When she came to her senses, her face turned slightly red, but she still thought hard about Shen Mian's problem.
"I don't really know, but if I want to find a boyfriend, I don't need him to be tall and handsome, but he needs to be able to talk to me and have common topics. When I need help and vulnerability Being able to be by my side and pointing me in a direction when I'm confused, and then..."
Qiao Jiaying said, and the moment she raised her eyes, she suddenly found that Shen Mian was holding her chin and staring at her with a smile. This made her cheeks seem to be a little hotter because she had never discussed this topic with others, so for a moment Somewhat at a loss.
So I asked quietly: "Are my requests too much?"
Shen Mian thought her reaction was quite interesting, but she still smiled and shook her head.
"It's actually good to know what kind of person you want to find." These are her true words: "Everyone wants to find a different half, so there is no fixed standard. There is no one The difference between right or wrong is only appropriateness or inappropriateness.”
Shen Mian said, looking away from Qiao Jiaying: "I haven't known that person for a long time. Maybe it sounds like there will be some politeness in the conversation between us. In fact, it's normal. of."
She can't say that her boyfriend is in the game. This is not good for children's education.
"He actually suits my taste unexpectedly." Shen Mian's mind sketched out Gu Henzhi's appearance: "I have been used to being alone since I was a child, and I have always felt that maybe I will always be like this for the rest of my life. It doesn’t matter whether I have a boyfriend or not. I can live well alone. Suddenly having a stranger break into my life is actually a very dangerous challenge for me..."
"If there was such a person who really barged into my life like the domineering president in the TV series, automatically helped me solve all the problems in life, put aside his career and his own life and stuck to me every day, If you want to instill all your experience and common sense into me and make me a more perfect woman in the eyes of everyone or in the secular sense, I may turn around and run away, really!"
Seeing the confused reaction of the person opposite, Shen Mian chuckled: "Don't understand?"
"Yeah." Qiao Jiaying nodded obediently.
"A love life is not an indispensable necessity in my life, but if I really like someone, it should be the icing on the cake. The person I like should respect my ideas, preferences and habits, and let them I stay true to myself, become a better "me" rather than a better 'person', and give the other person independent space. I don't need the other person to change his life and habits for love. It is okay to become another person for love. Very scary.”
"On the contrary, I will give him full freedom and space. Because we are both independent beings. Fortunately, from the current point of view, he quite meets my criteria for finding a boyfriend."
Shen Mian's voice paused, and then said: "Everyone wants a different kind of love, but for me, I don't need him to be by my side all the time. After all, he will have his own things. But Just knowing that when I look back, he'll be there, that's okay."
"For example: everyone is doing their own thing while the video is on, and you can see him when you look up..."
As Shen Mian spoke, the scene when Gu Henzhi lent her a book appeared in her mind.
At that time, Gu Henzhi gave her a "stable" feeling that she had almost never experienced before, as if she had finally landed somewhere after wandering for a long time.
"He can't be by my side all the time. If I tell him some things, it's just one more person to worry about. If I can solve many things, it doesn't matter if I don't tell him."
Shen Mian changed the topic back: "Strictly speaking, it's probably because I'm used to this person, so it can't be said to be his problem."
It was easy for Shen Mian to feel a little guilty because Gu Henzhi was misunderstood.
What she just said was just to make it easier for Qiao Jiaying to understand her meaning, so she made a small change. In the end, she also explained, so it shouldn't be considered as damaging his reputation, right?
Speaking of this, she felt even more that it would be great if Gu Henzhi was really a real person!
It wasn't because Gu Henzhi was completely obsessed with her aesthetics.
What if one day, just like when she discovered Xu Yizhou who looked exactly like Su Yu, if someone who looked exactly like Gu Henzhi appeared around her, but was not that person in his heart, she would probably feel even more awkward. , and stay further and further away from that guy.
She thought so in her heart.
Qiao Jiaying, who was sitting opposite her, was obviously thoughtful after listening to her words.
She was not 100% able to understand some of these words, but this did not affect her ability to see that Shen Mian in front of her probably liked the boyfriend she mentioned. Even when she asked the other person if he was her boyfriend, she simply said "yes".
But when mentioning the other person, the gentle smile that oozes out of his eyes unconsciously cannot deceive anyone.
Even though what Shen Mian said was not quite the same as the love she imagined, after listening to it, she felt that this kind of relationship was really suitable for him. She couldn't think of anything else to replace it.
Actually, that’s fine, right?
"Oh, that's right." Shen Mian suddenly spoke up, interrupting Qiao Jiaying's thoughts: "I don't want to mention my boyfriend to anyone else for the time being."
Huh?
Is this to be kept secret?
So, did she accidentally learn Sister Shen's "secret"? But she didn't avoid herself just now!
Qiao Jiaying's surprise was directly reflected on her face.
But after realizing that Shen Mian had only revealed this matter to herself and that it had temporarily become a little secret between the two of them, her eyes instantly lit up.
"Okay." Qiao Jiaying nodded solemnly.
She would not tell this matter casually. Sister Shen must have her own reasons for saying this. What if it is difficult for her to tell it and cause some problems in the relationship between the two people... Well, she will definitely I won’t tell anyone!
Well...it doesn't have to be so serious.
Shen Mian always felt that this girl was filling her head with something that she didn't know.
But never mind, that's it.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door of the lounge, and Wei Duo walked in from the door.
As soon as he entered the room, Wei Duo was keenly aware that the atmosphere in the air was a little different from usual.
She narrowed her eyes and looked back and forth at the other two people in the room.
"What are you talking about that it's not convenient for me to know?" She could hear someone talking inside just now through the door, but she couldn't make out what they were saying. The moment she entered the door, the talking suddenly stopped. Why? I think this is the only reason.
Her best friend was just kidnapped by a little girl?
Qiao Jiaying was startled by her question. Just as she was about to find an excuse, she heard Shen Mian on the opposite side speak first.
"It's inconvenient for you to know too much about the secrets between unemployed and free young girls. You, a working party, don't understand." Shen Mian said with a smile and met Wei Duo's gaze directly.
"Tch, do you want to make your status as an unemployed vagrant so fresh and refined? Don't forget, we are the same age! You chose to 'retire' early and you are also an idle person after retirement! I am now in my prime. , are you popular at your golden age at work?" Wei Duo felt that he had been discriminated against by the other party.
What's wrong with her? She's also very young!
At worst, they'll hurt each other!
"You are in your prime years... Do you have any misunderstandings about yourself..." Shen Mian raised her eyebrows slightly.
"Plop", Qiao Jiaying was used to the two of them quarreling with each other from time to time, but it still sounded interesting every time.
This made her a little envious. Only by being able to speak so brazenly could she prove that the relationship was real.
Wei Duo snorted and didn't plan to argue with her: "The captain said he wanted to see you, and it's almost time. I'll wrap things up here, and we'll go home together after you come back."
Yin Jinchuan wants to see her?
Shen Mian was not particularly surprised by this incident. After all, after the discovery in the afternoon, she had changed from simply helping to being the target of the other party's attempted crime. Gee, speaking of it this way, she is really unlucky!
"Okay, he is in the office now?"
"It should be." Wei Duo said.
Shen Mian nodded, slowly stood up straight, and walked out the door.
…
After exiting the Star Network, Gu Henzhi quickly opened his optical brain and found a familiar account in the communication list.
When the smaller version of the other party's holographic image appeared on his desk, the two of them were stunned at the same time.
"What are you doing?" Gu Henzhi frowned as he looked at the villain leaning upside down against the wall.
"Is this where you live now?" A pleasant male voice came from the villain's mouth.
Two people's voices rang at the same time.
"That guy Jin Siqian said you were going to disappear for a while. I thought you wouldn't contact us in the near future." The upside-down man turned over quickly, straightened his body quickly and looked at Gu Hen curiously. The room in which it is located. Suddenly, his eyes were attracted by something, and he fixed it there for an instant.
"You...you...what is that?" The villain raised his hand tremblingly and pointed in a certain direction behind Gu Henzhi! "You're going to disappear for a while. Did you suddenly discover that you have some... um... hobby that is inconvenient for us to know?"
Gu Henzhi turned around, followed the other person's fingers, and saw the eye-catching pink cartoon pillow placed beside his bed.
He closed his eyes and sighed deeply.
Forgot that thing existed.
"I thought what you just did was because you had a habit that would be inconvenient for others to know. You are walking backwards because you want to imitate the MT people and turn yourself into an hourglass. Can you do it forward and backward?" Gu Henzhi sighed inwardly. , but the expression on his face did not change much.
"Tsk... I didn't lose a bet..."
"You look very idle."
As soon as Gu Henzhi said these words, the other party's expression instantly became wary.
Every time when Gu Henzhi, the evil boss, said these words or showed this expression, nothing good usually happened.
"Just say what you want to do. Your reaction makes me a little scared." There is also something pink appearing on Gu Henzhi's bed. He shouldn't be in some girl's room... If that's the case If so, is he going on a mission or falling in love?
He suddenly felt that he had discovered some unknown truth!
