After the divorce, the boss doted on me

Chapter 178: The Perfectionist

Xiaobei kept crying until he got into the car, and he was still sobbing. Manman sat next to him, wiped away his tears, and coaxed him: "Xiaobei is six years old, and he is a little man. You You said yesterday that you want to protect Manman, but you are crying again today, so how can Manman believe you?!"

Xiaobei sat sleepily in the safety seat, sobbing from time to time, with red nose and red eyes, his pitiful appearance made people feel distressed, until Gu Mochen drove the car to the door of a Pizza Hut restaurant, Xiaobei regained his composure. Rejuvenated because pizza is his favorite.

"Actually, you are too serious, it's just a child's toy, as long as he likes it." Tan Man cut a piece of pizza and put it on Xiao Bei's plate, and the little guy couldn't wait to put it in his mouth.

Gu Mochen picked up the glass and sipped the lemonade, frowning slightly: "Obviously you can choose, why do you have to have a flawed one, I want to give him the best."

"But he likes it!"

"I know there's a problem, but I still like it. Isn't that stupid?" His tone was obviously softer, "Besides, I can't accept the existence of defective products at home!"

Tan Man understood his psychology and gave him a blank look: "Do you know that the other side of perfectionism is actually obsessive-compulsive disorder, I think you are seriously ill!"

"I don't think there is anything wrong, at least the principle of always pursuing perfection has allowed me to have everything I have now, to do things to the extreme, and to ask for the best, what's wrong?!"

"Perfection only exists in an ideal world. Sometimes there will be situations like Xiaobei. You know it has flaws, but you still can't help liking it. Do you also ignore your inner desires in order to stick to your strange principles? Do you feel it?!"

Gu Mochen squinted at her, was silent for a moment, and said firmly: "If there are flaws, I won't take a second look at them. How can I like them?!"

Tan Man froze for a moment, his words were like a sharp knife, directly making a cut in her heart, did he mean that if he knew that he was deaf and disabled, he would definitely not like? !
"If, I mean, if you meet a girl who has a disability, no matter how small the flaw is, you won't choose to like her, right?!"

Hearing this, Gu Mochen frowned in confusion. He didn't understand why she suddenly asked such a question, and shot her sharp eyes: "What do you mean by that?"

Tan Man realized that she was about to lose her composure. She lowered her head and cut a small piece of cake and put it in her mouth. She shrugged and said, "Just ask, I just want to test your psychology because of an occupational disease attack!"

"Then let me tell you," Gu Mochen replied, "If you can choose, no! Why don't I find a healthy partner for myself?! This has nothing to do with discrimination, it's just reality. You know, take care of Xiao Bei , It takes enough time and energy, I can't promise, I still have the patience to take care of and endure a disabled wife."

Bear?

Yes, as a perfectionist, he can't even accept a defective toy, so how could he tolerate having a disabled partner? Moreover, with his current conditions and capital, there is absolutely no shortage of excellent women around him.

It's not like she didn't think about this problem before, but when he admitted this fact, it made people feel so uncomfortable, as if her chest was pressed by a big stone, and she couldn't breathe.

While he was talking, Tan Man never raised her head to look at him, she was afraid that she might accidentally reveal her emotions.

"Manman?!" Seeing that she was silent for a while, Gu Mochen couldn't help calling her.

"Huh?" She raised her head abruptly.

"What are you thinking?" The other party was puzzled, and his brows were slightly frowned.

She chuckled and shook her head without making a sound.

"I'll accompany you back to buy books in a while!" He said.

"No, I'll come back another day. There are too many people in the book city today, so I can't concentrate on picking them!" Tan Man immediately refused. She just wanted to escape from here, go home and wrap herself in a quilt, and smooth her thoughts. and affection.

After lunch, Tan Man found an excuse and refused Gu Mochen's offer to send her home.

Today, after he unintentionally stated the principles he insisted on, Tan Man seemed to be rejected in disguise, and she was afraid that her feelings for him would leak out like lights in the curtains at night.

……

When Tan Man returned home, she slept soundly all afternoon with her head covered, and even forgot to take off her hearing aids. When she woke up, dusk had already fallen.

The phone rang beside the bed at just the right time, she reached out to touch it, and the caller showed Qiao Ning.

"Hey, Qiao Ning!" She lazily replied.

"Are you sick? The voice is weak." Qiao Ning asked.

"No, I just woke up."

"My brother was relieved by the side." She chuckled softly.

"Stop teasing me, what's wrong?"

"Tomorrow weekend, let's go hiking."

"In winter, you will suffer from lack of oxygen when climbing mountains!" Manman said with little interest.

"Go, it's rare that I have the heart to exercise, just the three of us, and we will eat hot pot together when we come back." Qiao Ning dragged his cute voice and persuaded, "Go, go, just stay with me, the weather is good on the weekend, Wo What a waste to sleep at home."

"Hey, well, I can't stand you!" Tan Man reluctantly agreed.

"We'll pick you up early tomorrow morning. You don't need to prepare anything, as long as someone comes." Qiao Ning finished talking excitedly and hung up the phone.

Qiao Ning said that it was early in the morning, and it was really early. Before eight o'clock, Qiao Sen's car had already parked downstairs, and Man Man stepped on his canvas shoes and hurried downstairs.

Today's Tan Man wears a pair of slim-fit jeans with a white hooded down. She has her shoulder-length hair tied into a ball on top of her head. It is neither loose nor tight, and a few strands flow down her slender neck. The whole person looks Even younger, like a college student.

"Morning, Manman!" When Tan Man appeared in front of the car, Qiao Sen had already stepped down and waited by the door. She consciously opened the rear door and sat with Qiao Ning.

"Manman, you deliberately tied a mushroom head to reflect my age!" Qiao Ning touched her bun, frowning unhappily.

"Please, we are the same age, do you want to be so inferior? You asked me to climb the mountain, so I tied it up, okay?!"

Manman seldom tied her hair up, because it might expose the hearing aid in her ear. Although it is small, if you pay attention, you can still see it.

No matter how calm a person is, he is not willing to easily expose his weaknesses to others.

"Long hair still looks good, I don't understand why you couldn't think about it before, and cut it so short." Qiao Ning said while wiping out a rubber band from his backpack, "Quickly, help me tie a ball head too! "

Tan Man has long been used to her freewheeling temper, so she smiled wryly and tied her hair up.

"You girls, you can talk for so long with just one hair!" Qiao Sen, who was driving, shook his head, expressing his confusion.

"Brother, just do your job as a coachman and slave today." Qiao Ning rolled his eyes at him, "Yes, and take out your wallet!"

Tan Man grinned. Not only did the two brothers and sisters have no similarities in appearance, but they also had no similarities in personality at all. Qiao Ning was hot-tempered, and Qiao Sen was gentle and refined. Sometimes it really made people wonder if they were real brothers and sisters.

After more than an hour, the car drove into the Sheshan parking lot. Perhaps because of the weekend and the bright sun, there were many people coming over.

After climbing a high mountain gate, Qiao Ning and Tan Man were already out of breath. After finally climbing up to the first platform, Qiao Ning already yelled for a rest and sat down on the stone bench.

"No, it's too hard." Qiao Ning wanted to take off his coat while panting.

Tan Man also opened her mouth and exhaled heavily. The down feathers had already started to heat up, and her whole body was dripping with sweat.

"Drink some water!" Qiao Sen on the side didn't change his face, and handed Tan Man a bottle of water.

"Thank you." She smiled lightly, "People who exercise regularly are really different!"

"It's just such a few steps that you are so tired, it seems that you have to go to the gym with me for a run." Qiao Sen said.

"I'm not going, I'd rather spend the money I spent on going to the gym for beauty treatment!" Qiao Ning frowned.

"You go to the gym a few more times, and I promise you can wear less foundation! Look at you, what kind of makeup do you wear at a young age, do you want me to bring you some pictures of skin cells corroded by cosmetics from the hospital next time? !” Qiao Sen threatened mercilessly.

"Hmph, you know how to bully me, yes, I can't compare to Manman's natural beauty, even without makeup, right?!" Qiao Ning choked back at him angrily, then turned to Tan Man and said, "Manman , accompany me to the bathroom?"

"it is good!"

Qiao Sen looked at their fading figures and smiled helplessly. A question that has puzzled him since he was a child is why girls have to go together when they go to the bathroom.

After coming out of the bathroom, Qiao Ning waited at the door for a while, but was about to go back to the women's bathroom to find someone, when a new message popped up on the phone's WeChat.

"You go back and wait for me, my mother drank too much soy milk in the morning, I guess I have to squat for a while!"

Manman was a little speechless, turned around and walked towards Qiao Sen.

"Miss Tan?!"

At this time, when she heard someone calling her name behind her, Tan Man turned her head, and a man in his early thirties, dressed in casual sports clothes, looked at her. This man looked familiar, and she definitely knew him, but she couldn't remember who it was. .

"Don't remember me?" Seeing her blank face, the other party smiled and said, "I'm Chen Rui, Gu Mochen's friend!"

Tan Man suddenly said, "It turned out to be Lawyer Chen. I'm sorry, but you didn't recognize him when you took off your suit."

"The suit looks old, but I didn't expect me to be quite young, right?!" The other party joked.

"Hehe, the suit is not old, it's just a different style!" Manman responded with a smile.

"I didn't expect Miss Tan to like mountain climbing too?!"

Manman immediately waved her hand and said, "I don't like it, I was dragged up by my friends."

"Oh?! I thought you had the same hobbies as Gu Mochen."

When Gu Mochen was mentioned, Tan Man was taken aback, but soon regained her composure, deliberately avoiding the topic of that person: "Lawyer Chen, you didn't come here alone, did you?!"

"No, my wife and I have a few friends!" Chen Rui pointed to the group of people behind her. Following the direction, she saw a young woman with a good temperament who looked a few years older than herself.
