Mei Jibai asked patiently: "What are you doing in a daze? If you agree, I will help you. If you don't agree, you will have to eat it yourself. The former or the latter?"

Gu Qing came back to his senses, and chose the former in seconds, and he put it directly on Mei Jibai's lips, "Thank you very much."

What is face? It cannot be eaten or used. He is fed up with the taste of this cake, and he doesn't want to eat another bite.

Mei Jibai doesn't like desserts, but he drinks coffee a lot. The bitterness of this chocolate is far better than that of black coffee, and it's even...slightly sweet.

Gu Qing stood with his gaze lowered. It was rare for him to look at Mei Jibai from a high place like this. This person is really... always calm and composed. He just stared at him for a long time, and he couldn't help but licked his lips. .

Mei Jibai's lips are moderately thick and thin, with smooth lip arches, making them look very kissable.

After finishing the calf, he remembered the kiss at the school celebration again. It was slightly cold, but the touch was unexpectedly good. He thought he would not like it very much. After all, it was just a anger to resist a bunch of rules set for him.

He felt his face was burning, and even his hands trembled a little.

Sure enough, the old ancestor's words were right, beauty misleads people!It's definitely just because Mei Jibai looks in line with his aesthetics, and it's human nature to have a good impression of good-looking people, right?

Right?

After finishing this piece of cake, he let out a long sigh of relief. Finally, the action of feeding the cake was over, he drank the cold tea in his cup in one breath, and shook his hands. I rubbed my wrist, and my hands were sore after holding it for a long time.

Returning to his seat and sitting down, he rested his elbows on the edge of the table, resting his chin and staring at the person opposite, Mei Jibai won't eat dessert?

He didn't see how repulsive this person was.

The two of them didn't speak for a long time, and the atmosphere was weird. He cleared his throat and said, "There is something I want to tell you in advance. Yu Jinnian and I are netizens. I told you that his death is very strange to me. There is also the matter of the Yu family back then, although he is gone, I want to investigate and investigate to give him an explanation and an explanation for our friendship."

Mei Jibai took a sip of tea, "So righteous?"

Gu Qing insisted without changing his face, "Although I haven't met him very often, I regard him as a good friend. Before he asked me for help, I was playful and didn't pay much attention to it. To be honest, I wasn't Not guilty."

Mei Jibai looked at Gu Qing for a long time before saying: "Investigation is fine, but the matter of the Yu family is obviously not simple, I don't want you to get burned."

"I appreciate the good intentions, but I will definitely investigate. Whoever commits crimes should pay the price. Why is he getting away with it?"

"Since you have the heart, you can tell me where you need it."

"Okay." Gu Qing just responded, but in fact he didn't trust the members of the Mei family.

Back then, the Mei family and the Yu family were quite good friends, the Yu family went bankrupt, and the Mei family—that is, Mei Jibai's father, Mei Guangqi, why stayed out of the matter?

It doesn't make sense.

The greatest probability is that Mei Guangqi didn't really make friends with his father, that's why he chose to protect himself when Yu's family was in trouble. After all, for a businessman, profit comes first.

Therefore, when he was still "Yu Jinnian", the brief contact with Mei Guangqi was not very pleasant. As for later, he took the initiative to find Mei Jibai, and he never saw the chairman Mei again. noodle.

Gu Qing stopped talking, Mei Jibai didn't ask any more questions, and said, "My aunt came back two days ago and wants to see you."

Gu Qing nodded, "I'm fine with my time, I'm not busy these days."

"Is it convenient at noon tomorrow?"

"Okay." After Gu Qing answered, he asked again, "You have a good relationship with your third aunt?"

"She and my grandfather had an unpleasant fight, but they were very kind to me and Bai Qing. If you want to ask something, you can ask it directly, don't worry."

Cough, Gu Qing didn't feel that his curiosity was obvious. Now that Mei Jibai said so, he stopped being polite and asked, "It is said that it is because your third aunt insisted on becoming an actor, and your grandfather thought that an actor is equal to an actor...not popular. ? And she is not satisfied with her lover, she is a director, I heard that she has won many awards."

"It's true. Grandpa's generation has relatively traditional ideas, and my aunt has a strong temper, and she will become stalemate after tit-for-tat confrontation."

Gu Qing nodded, and didn't ask any more questions, "Since your aunt and nephew have a good relationship, I have a good idea of ​​what to do when we meet."

After the two chatted, it happened that dinner was ready. Gu Qing ate a lot of cakes but didn't eat much. Hearing that Mei Jibai asked Liu Xin to prepare the three meals in the future, the portion of each dish can be reduced, and I feel... very caring .

Probably sensed that he didn't like to waste it.

To be honest, the two of them couldn't finish a table of dishes, and the leftovers were disposed of on the same day. It's not a pity for him. He doesn't have a position to talk to at Mei's house. He just moved here two days ago. It's hard for him to tell Liu Xin. , it really is the most appropriate for Mei Jibai to speak, after all, he was brought out by the old house.

The two went upstairs one after the other, they had their own study rooms, before Mei Jibai entered the study room, he called someone to stop him, wanted to say something, but stopped at the edge of his mouth.

Mei Jibai returned a gentle smile, "I'll pick you up at noon tomorrow, and go to bed earlier in the evening."

Gu Qing nodded, watched Mei Jibai enter the door, and only recovered after the door was closed. He took a deep breath and covered his face. What's the matter? What's so embarrassing? !

This inexplicable emotion lasted until noon the next day, when the driver Xue Mingtao opened the back door for him, looked at Mei Jibai who was sitting on the other side, Gu Qing straightened his cuffs, thanked Xue Mingtao before boarding the car awkwardly.

The car started, Gu Qing was silent, Mei Jibai said: "Mingtao has been with me for six or seven years, and I don't shy away from him in most matters. It's okay to speak up if you have something to say, and you can also ask him for help if you need help."

Gu Qing and Xue Mingtao looked at each other in the rearview mirror, and he deliberately smiled, "Then thank you in advance."

Sensing Gu Qing's unnaturalness, Mei Jibai lowered his voice slightly, "After all, we are friends who have slept in the same bed, so you don't have to be so polite in front of me, just say what you have to say, and do whatever you want."

Ha ha.

Gu Qing glanced at her, "Are you consoling...or encouraging me to be more presumptuous?"

"Consolation for what?"

Gu Qing crossed his arms and was silent for a while, suddenly.

This is the spirit of the individual, there is nothing Mei Jibai can't handle in the world, he is considerate and thoughtful, even if it's just for him, a marriage partner who has no feelings for him.

He adjusted his mood and replied: "There is nothing to comfort, I am fine, just seeing your aunt and uncle, there is nothing to be nervous about."

He checked carefully last night. Both of them had good reputations in the circle, and they were not difficult people to get along with. He just wanted to see if he would not be pleasing to the eye because of the black material of the original owner.

When they arrived at the reserved restaurant, the two of them almost arrived one after the other.

After the few people were seated, Mei Xiaotong handed over the gift she had prepared, and said first, "I haven't seen you for a while this time, and your wedding sister didn't come back in time. The wedding gift is a little thoughtful."

After asking about Mei Xiaotong, Mei Jibai directly opened the exquisitely carved sandalwood box, which contained a custom-made fountain pen. He closed the lid and smiled slightly: "This master has not received a custom-made fountain pen for three years. gone."

Mei Xiaotong took the arm of her husband beside her, "Thanks to Huai Ning, my precious granddaughter is a fan of Huai Ning, a three-five-minute short film is exchanged for her grandfather's handmade pen, a win-win situation."

Fang Huaining smiled and said, "Just talk about me, why didn't you say that the girl started chasing after your first work, and threatened to find a girlfriend like you?"

Mei Xiaotong glared at her husband, "If you're jealous, you'll be jealous. I promised to spare time to be your number one girl. Are you done yet?"

Gu Qing couldn't hold back her laughter when she heard this, but quickly stopped laughing when Mei Xiaotong looked over, "Gu..."

"Call ma'am!"

Gu Qing glanced at Mei Jibai, and after the other party confirmed it, he changed his words: "I mean, my sister and brother-in-law have a really good relationship."

Mei Xiaotong is Grandpa Mei's old daughter, she is only ten years older than Mei Jibai, when she is not in front of the family members, he can understand calling her sister, they are on good terms.

Mei Xiaotong nodded, and then laughed again, "That's right, open the gift for you and have a look. I don't know what you like, so I just watched and prepared. I was actually quite dissatisfied before I saw it. The name is out there, but when we meet... the rumors cannot be completely believed."

Looking at the watch in the gift box, Gu Qing knew that it was expensive.

He is not interested in luxury goods, but in order to be able to talk to people in the circle without revealing too many flaws, he has done his homework in this area. He dare not say he is proficient. He has a general understanding and knows that this watch is a limited edition.

Even though Mei Xiaotong was dissatisfied with him, out of respect and value for Mei Jibai, he still carefully prepared for him.

He replied with a decent smile, "My sister took the trouble, I like it very much. I know I was messing around before, I know I was wrong, and I will definitely change it in the future."

Mei Jibai continued: "It's already being changed, and it's been very good lately."

If it wasn't for someone else, Gu Qing would definitely have turned back, good boy?This is the word to describe him!

Mei Xiaotong didn't miss Gu Qing's eyes, her eyes turned back and forth between the two opposite people a few times, and she felt confident.

Halfway through the meal, Xue Mingtao came in and said there was something wrong with the company. Mei Jibai left first. Mei Jibai was present.

Now he is alone, he doesn't think his aunt who dotes on his nephew will show mercy to him.

Sure enough, the smile on Mei Xiaotong's face gradually disappeared after the sound of closing the door.

She shook the goblet, narrowed her eyes slightly, and said leisurely after a while, "Gu Qing, the marriage was made possible by the efforts of the fathers of the two families. Baihui promised me that I was surprised, but I can figure it out, it's just... Come on. I did think you weren't good enough for him before.

"A dissolute and indulgent dandy, and Ji Bai have different personalities and three views. No matter how you look at it, you are not worthy."

Gu Qing has nothing to refute, "I was really... naive before."

Mei Xiaotong shook her head, with a calm expression, "The past is the past, I only look at the future, and today I really saw the two of you sitting together, it's a good match, not just the appearance, but more of the temperament and aura."

Gu Qing was a little puzzled, he really didn't think he was a good match for Mei Jibai, where did he know this?

Seeing Gu Qing's bewilderment, Mei Xiaotong's tone softened a bit, "It's true that you are married, but it doesn't mean you can't have feelings."

Even though there was only one meal, it was enough for Gu Qing to see that Mei Jibai and his aunt had a good relationship. In this case, he didn't mind making it clear, so as to avoid trouble in the future, such as helping them cultivate their relationship.

He said bluntly: "I actually didn't think about developing any relationship."

Mei Xiaotong raised her eyebrows, showing a trace of surprise, she and Fang Huaining looked at each other, and said: "You have admired him for so many years, and it is unbelievable that you say you don't want to have a relationship with him?"

"It's admiration, but it's not about... developing love. We're just a simple marriage."

Mei Xiaotong stared at Gu Qing for a long time, and finally laughed out loud, as if she was relieved, but she didn't bother to point out something, "Did Jibai tell you that he has someone he likes?"

"Yeah." Gu Qing knew it was referring to Yu Jinnian, but he didn't believe it at all.

"Then do you want to know about the relationship between Zhebai and him? Do you want to know how Zhebai became what he is now?"

Gu Qing frowned, what does it mean to "become like this"?

He traveled directly from the moment he fell down to two years later, and there was a blank period in between. Mei Jibai was indeed colder than he remembered, but it wouldn't make Mei Xiaotong say that, he really didn't feel that the other party had... too much change.

He knew that it was best to keep his mouth shut and leave without asking. He and Mei Jibai were definitely going to divorce and kept a distance. He didn't need to understand that, but he seemed to be pinned down on the seat by a pair of invisible hands, unable to move.

He heard himself say, "Think."
