Gu Nian, who had been busy in the kitchen, had no intention of participating in the lively atmosphere outside. He only wanted to quickly prepare the ingredients for the bread to be made in the morning.
But she actually heard the words "Bochen Group".
So the hand that was pouring milk into the kneading vat shook a few times unconsciously.
A lot of milk spilled out of the tank.
Gu Nian felt a little distressed, but had nothing to do. In desperation, she had no choice but to put down what she was doing and turned around to pick up the cleaning tools and quickly wipe the wet floor.
The floor was quickly mopped clean, but Gu Nian's mood was in a mess.
The mood that had finally calmed down was shattered into pieces at this moment.
This was Gu Nian's original plan.
From today on, she only needs to rush home before Shi Ye arrives, and then rush back to her room as soon as she enters the door.
The next day, leave home before Shi Ye gets up, so that you don't have to meet Shi Ye at all.
But I never expected that it would be such an unlucky coincidence that the only job I had now, and the location I was about to move to, was actually downstairs of Shi Ye's company.
Doesn't this mean that it is easy to meet Shi Ye during the day?
Thinking of this, Gu Nian felt even more confused.
Since the scene last night, although nothing substantial had happened between her and Shi Ye, Gu Nian still seemed to have broken the chain of taboos she had in the past.
I tasted the feeling of being almost immersed.
But soon, all Gu Nian was left with was a sense of humiliation.
Because what Shi Ye was thinking about at that time was other women.
Gu Nian didn't know how to face Shi Ye.
However, rather than saying that he didn't want to face Shi Ye, what Gu Nian didn't want to face even more was that Shi Ye actually had someone else in his heart.
Although she kept trying to persuade herself not to think about it anymore, the suspicion of who this person was still weighed on Gu Nian's mind.
"Why would he go out of his way to marry me when he obviously has someone in his heart?"
"Is that person no longer in this world?"
"Wait, will I feel better now that she is no longer in this world?"
not at all.
"Because Shi Ye is still in love with her, and even in all the things he did with me, he might have been thinking about her."
"What if she is still in this world... Then I will be a complete fool! What a fool!"
...
All kinds of thoughts were like poisonous snakes, constantly spitting out snake messages in her heart.
Since last night, Gu Nian has not fallen asleep, and has been repeating these words in her mind.
Gu Nian felt unprecedented pressure when she thought of having to prepare breakfast for Shi Ye when she woke up in the morning.
She really wanted to end this as soon as possible!
I really want to go back to where I started.
Maybe God heard her voice, so when she left home in the morning, Gu Nian met Zhang's mother who had returned to work.
Gu Nian did feel relieved.
If you can make yourself less connected to Shi Ye, you should slowly forget all this.
However, after this wave of three meals a day work finally came to an end, the reality of moving to the downstairs of Shi Ye's office building came up again, and Gu Nian felt that there was almost no way out.
So, there is no way to escape Shi Ye?
***
Downstairs of Baichen Group.
Shi Ye's car just arrived.
He looked up and couldn't help but saw an unused facade in the corner of the first floor, which was sealed with a curtain saying "Under renovation, please stay tuned."
Shi Ye didn't pay too much attention, he just continued to flip through the work report in his hand, and then asked by the way:
"Who rented it out on the first floor?"
Xiao Mo quickly replied:
"Yes, Mr. Shi."
"The company's assets department reported to the top a few days ago, saying that in order to revitalize the idle storefront on the first floor, several high-end catering shops were introduced, and also to serve the employees of Baichen Group."
"However, the report was signed directly to the chairman, so I didn't come to ask for your instructions."
Shi Ye closed the work report in his hand and snorted disdainfully when he heard that this matter was actually related to Shi Wei'an.
"He is so idle that he even bothers with such trivial matters."
"But that's right, apart from doing these innocuous things to make his presence felt, what good things can he do for the group."
Shi Ye sarcastically said to his father.
However, to be fair, Shi Ye quite agreed with this matter.
He has always been a president who is considerate to his subordinates. Shi Ye supports anything that can make employees have a better working experience.
Therefore, if the company can have some places downstairs suitable for employees to relax, such as cafes and restaurants, it will be a good thing for employees to work, so I will not comment too much.
After saying that, Shi Ye was about to get off the car when he heard the roar of a locomotive, speeding over from not far away.
Stopped in front of Shi Ye's car door.
Shi Ye turned his head and just looked at the man on the motorcycle quietly without saying anything.
However, Shi Mo just took off his helmet.
But he looked at Shi Ye with a secretive face and said:
"Brother, long time no see."
Facing Shi Mo's sudden appearance, Shi Ye didn't show much expression.
He just glanced at his half-brother coldly.
At the age of twenty-two, his face reveals the youthful temperament unique to young people.
But this riding outfit, the dyed and permed curly hair, and the cool modified motorcycle behind him.
There is also a Givenchy patent leather backpack slung across the body.
Dressed in brand-name clothes, there is only a feeling of nothingness left.
To people's intuition, Shi Mo is just a playboy who grew up spoiled by his parents.
Shi Ye didn't want to talk to him much, and wanted to go straight forward, but Shi Mo's eyes seemed to be glued to him.
So Shi Ye stopped after taking a few steps.
"If I remember correctly, today is a working day." Shi Ye raised his eyes and looked at Shi Mo and said.
Shi Mo was a little surprised by Shi Ye's sudden words.
But he still pretended to be calm, looked bored, and said with a smile:
"What's wrong with working days?"
Shi Ye withdrew his eyes, then ignored him and just said: "It seems that you are really free."
When his brother said this, Shi Mo felt a little embarrassed on his face, but he still forced himself to cover up his inner world.
Wait, why do these words sound so familiar?
Gu Nian, the working girl before, also said the same to herself.
Shi Mo smiled bitterly, so he was always in front of the people he cared about. Is this his image?
Thinking of this, Shi Mo felt even more unwilling, so he wanted to argue in front of Shi Ye, but was stopped by Shi Ye's next action.
Shi Ye put a finger up to his mouth, and then looked at Shi Mo expressionlessly.
"You don't need to say anything more to me, I don't have that much time to listen."
"I'll just tell you one thing. You can go to the airline to secretly investigate Du Yucheng's flight information. I don't want to argue with you."
"But, from today on, I don't want to hear about you and your family appearing in Yunshan Nursing Home again."
"If you still want to challenge my bottom line, I will challenge you."
After saying that, Shi Ye walked away.
Not even a minute or a second was left for Shi Mo to explain.
Shi Mo stood alone, silent for a long time.
After a while, he smiled bitterly and took out the toy car he took out from home from his backpack.
Then he looked in the direction where his brother Shi Ye had just left.
"Brother, do you still remember the time you gave me a car? You may not remember. But I remember!"
"You don't want to see me, but...I will appear in front of you every day soon to let you know what kind of person I am."
"immediately!"
＊＊＊
It's finally time to get off work.
Except for the night shift clerks who have to guard the store, the bakers can usually leave work after finishing today's batch of bread.
But Gu Nian, who was always the first to get off work these days, stayed in the store today.
"Xiao An, I will take care of today's hygiene, you can leave first!" Gu Nian said to the clerk on duty today.
"Ah! Nian Nian, you are so kind! How did you know that I actually wanted to get off work early today and go watch a movie with my boyfriend! I love you so much! Mmm~"
Gu Nian smiled and said nothing.
How did she know what her colleagues were planning tonight? She just wanted to find a reason for herself to avoid the time when Shi Ye came home from get off work.
Because Chandler Bakery specializes in hand-made freshly baked bread, there are often more people and takeout orders during the day, but there are not many people at night.
Colleague Xiao An couldn't hide the joy on his face because he liked to finish work early in the evening. He even sang a ditty happily.
But in contrast, Gu Nian here was silent and tidying up in the kitchen gloomily.
"Hey, that's not right, Nian Nian, you are a little weird today." Xiao An leaned on the glass window edge of the back kitchen and said to Gu Nian.
"Why am I abnormal?" Gu Nian smiled slightly.
"I remember that before yesterday, you specifically emphasized to your boss that you should go home early and cook for your family. The joy on your face made it look like you were in love..."
"But you have been depressed all day today, and you even took the initiative to stay and close the store... Tell me! Did you have a quarrel with your partner?"
Xiao An asked with some gossip.
"Where did I get my partner? You misunderstood. An aunt asked me to help take care of her children for a few days. I was entrusted and had to do it well."
Gu Nian naturally didn't need to explain so much to her, so he prevaricated.
"Is that so? That's okay. It's time and my boyfriend is here to pick me up. I'll leave first. Thank you for your hard work, Nian Nian!"
After saying that, my colleague Xiao An carried her bag and jumped onto her boyfriend's motorcycle.
very nice!
This is what it feels like to be in love, isn't it? Every day is filled with a feeling of happiness, and when I think of my partner, I jump with joy unconsciously.
In comparison, Gu Nian looked like a fool.
Yes, she actually fell in love with her contracted husband, and now she didn't dare to go back directly because of him.
Gu Nian didn't want to face Shi Ye, whose heart was full of another person.
However, it is difficult for Shi Ye's traces to dissipate in his mind.
How sad! The first person I like in my life...
But it is such an experience and such a feeling.
The more Gu Nian thought about it, the more pain she felt in her heart.
then.
brush! brush! brush!
As long as she couldn't help but think of Shi Ye again, Gu Nian would scrub the baking tools even harder, wanting to brush off a layer of Shi Ye's skin!
Turn grief and anger into strength! Um!
