Gu Xicen felt like he was listening to the night pool in the sky. It was so novel that it was too far away from him, but it was so real and close at hand.
Caressing her round belly, feeling her satisfaction and faint happiness, the curve of the corners of his lips spread, "Have you given the child a name?"
"Not yet." She shook her head honestly, and then said with a smile, "Grandpa Gu said that he had to choose the name, but he thought about it for a long time and couldn't think of a suitable one."
Maybe he attaches too much importance to it. Gu Changtian spends these days in his study studying the Kangxi Dictionary when he has nothing to do. Lin Yue'er doesn't value a name. It's just a title. The important thing is to be remembered by those who love him.
Just stay.
Gu Xicen glanced at her, "What about you? Do you have a name you like?"
"Yes!" She nodded immediately, and then said a little embarrassedly, "The name was given by his great-grandfather, and I gave it a nickname."
"Well, what's it called?"
"Mint."
Gu Xicen raised her eyebrows, "Mint?"
Lin Yuer smiled and explained, "Mint is also a Chinese medicinal spice. It is a herbaceous plant with a mild taste. Although it is inconspicuous, it can make people feel refreshed. I want my baby to be so fresh and clean."
"
He smiled, "What a good name."
"Really? You like it?" Lin Yuer was a little surprised. Although Gu Xicen was not a provocative person on weekdays, that didn't mean that he didn't have demands or taste. After such a long period of contact, she really understood
Really, there were very few things that caught his eye, so rare that he said he liked her, which really made her feel a little flattered.
"Yeah," he nodded, "a very clean name."
"That's good." She breathed a sigh of relief, really afraid that he wouldn't like it.
At this time, Gu Xicen quietly turned his eyes and asked softly, "Why... do you care so much about what I think?"
"Haha, of course I will care. If you like it, just prove my taste!" She said happily.
He smiled, and suddenly, there was a hint of novelty in his eyes, "Mint seems to like this name too, he is kicking my hand."
Lin Yuer blinked her clear eyes, "I can already feel it."
He chuckled and took back his hand, took out the juice from the back seat of the car, inserted a straw and handed it to her. Lin Yuer took it habitually, biting the straw like a child, "Xicen, is the company busy during this time?
?It seems like you come back late every day, it must be very hard, right?"
"It's okay." He said calmly.
It has been three months since Gu Changtian fell ill, and Gu Xicen was forced to take over the company and take over the position of general manager of Gu Wangchuan. To Gu Changtian's relief, he managed the company
Fortunately, there were no major mistakes, which made Gu Changtian look upon him with admiration. It wasn't that he was so outstanding, but that his expectations for him were originally low, which made it easier to satisfy him.
Knowing that he was not interested in running the company, if it weren't for his grandfather, he would have given up long ago. Lin Yuer smiled and comforted, "I heard from Yang Liu and Zhang Jiajia that you have a good reputation in the company."
"When brother comes back, I will return the company to him again." Gu Xicen stared at the road ahead and said softly, "It is my brother who made the company what it is today. I will not take advantage of this."
Hearing him mention Gu Wangchuan, Lin Yueyun, who was originally smiling, froze for a moment, then recovered quickly, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked in a calm voice, "Is there any news about him?"
Gu Xicen pursed her lower lip, turned her head, and asked without answering, "Do you want to hear me say yes or no?"
Lin Yue'er raised her head and met his mist-shrouded eyes. She always felt that there was a similarly mysterious message there, but she couldn't read it.
"If you have it, you have it, if you don't have it, you don't have it. Why are you beating me around the bush?" She muttered dissatisfiedly.
But he smiled, "Do pregnant women's IQs increase?" Pretending not to see her protesting gaze, he put away his joke and said calmly, "Brother is developing very well in D City, you don't have to worry about him."
Lin Yue'er felt a little relieved when she heard that he was good there, but when she heard his last sentence, she couldn't calm down. There was an unusual blush on her cheeks, and she was slightly sullen, "I
Why are you worried about him? It was just a casual question!"
Gu Xicen didn't argue with her, just smiled calmly, "I heard that the company he is running now has a cooperation effect with ak7, and he should be back here soon. We should be able to see him then.
arrive."
Although he was smiling, there was no smile in his words, and it was as if he was stating a fact.
"ak7?"
Lin Yue'er had a great reaction to this cosmetics company. She had not completely forgotten the previous incident. It was a shame in her career, and it reminded her at all times that any small oversight would cause irreparable damage.
Loss! Also, don’t trust any stranger who looks harmless!
But how could Gu Wangchuan do business with them? According to his temperament, he can't tolerate sand in his eyes. Even if there is profit to be made, his proud and great self-esteem will not allow him to cooperate with such a partner.
Lin Yuer was a little depressed. She turned her face away and looked outside the car.
After a while, she suddenly asked, "Yan Xiaojun, she...should be pregnant, right?"
She got pregnant two months earlier than him, and if the calculations were correct, her due date would be exactly this month.
Gu Xicen was silent for a moment, and then said, "It's a son." If she didn't ask, he would never tell her.
"...Really?" She lowered her eyes bitterly, Gu Wangchuan...must like it very much.
His eyes dropped and fell on his round belly. They were also his children. One could get all the love from his father, but the other could only choose to forget the fact that he also had a father.
Noticing her expression, Gu Xicen pursed her lips tighter, and without hesitation, reached out and held her hand.
Lin Yuer was startled and raised her head, "Xicen..."
He held the steering wheel tightly with one hand and did not look back. "You will be very happy like mint."
Lin Yue'er was a little embarrassed when he guessed his thoughts, but it quickly disappeared. In front of Gu Xicen, she was like a blank piece of paper. It was difficult to hide anything. However, fortunately,
It's him, she can allow herself to be more transparent and simple.
"I know, I know, with Grandpa Hua, Grandma Hua, and your uncle who loves him, of course he will be very happy!" Lin Yuer said pretending to be relaxed.
He didn't know which sentence or words touched him. He frowned, loosened his hold on her hand, and then stared straight ahead.
