Fenglin Villa, Huo House in the middle of the night, has a peaceful and quiet atmosphere.
In the master bedroom on the second floor, the gorgeous embroidered curtains have been closed, and in the dim view, only the slight and steady breathing of a slender woman on the big boat is heard, apparently sleeping peacefully.
Gu Yichen fell into a drowsy sleep when she heard the phone beside her pillow calling non-stop...
After struggling on the boat for a while, he took out an arm from the quilt and touched the pillow——
"His..." It's so cold! It's the coldest day now. Although we are located on the southern coast of the subtropical tropics, the cold air from the north has been blowing south these days. Such temperatures still make people feel very cold.
of.
Gu Yichen quickly grabbed the phone and huddled under the quilt again, but the phone suddenly stopped ringing. She let out a sigh and threw it to the pillow, intending to continue sleeping well.
However, the mobile phone that had not stopped just now started ringing noisily again...
There was another painful cry. Gu Yichen reached out suspiciously and grabbed the phone on the pillow again, only to see an unfamiliar number flashing on the large blue screen.
Look at the time display in the upper right corner of the screen again. What, it’s three o’clock in the morning!
——Who would call her in the middle of the night?
Is there something urgent about someone?
Gu Yichen opened the screen lock in surprise and pressed answer, but heard a polite voice coming from inside, "Excuse me, is this Mr. Huo Tianyuan's wife?"
Gu Yichen was even more surprised. She took the phone from her ear and checked it carefully. The string of numbers on the caller ID confirmed that it was an unfamiliar number. She then put the phone to her ear and asked carefully, "Who are you?"
——”
"Oh, that's it. It's a midnight pub here, and a gentleman was drunk at the bar. I saw the signature he just swiped his card on. It was Mr. Huo Tianyuan. So, I saw his mobile phone on the bar, so I checked it.
I took a look at his phone book, and there was a call record in it with the note of 'wife'. Excuse me, it's Mrs. Huo, right?"
In the pub, the waiter who was in charge of serving Huo Tianyuan just now said politely.
So that's it! She did call Huo Tianyuan at the company in the afternoon. Gu Yichen secretly breathed a sigh of relief, "Well, I am."
"Oh, I'm sorry to bother you! Excuse me, Mrs. Huo, can you come over to pick up your husband? Our store has already closed. I'm really sorry..."
Under the waiter's repeated apologies, Gu Yichen had no choice but to nod and agree, "Okay, I'll be there right away. Please tell me your address."
The other party then reported the address of the bar and explained the route carefully. Gu Yichen took note of it carefully.
After hanging up the phone, she looked out the window at the deep night and stared in silence for a while. She thought, it would be awkward to see him at this time, right?
Just a few hours ago, they had kissed, kissed, and touched so affectionately...
There was a time when they were at a stalemate like two enemies with deep grudges. She stubbornly rejected his enthusiasm and couldn't help but say words that would hurt and humiliate him. He must not want to see her, right?
================================
She wanted to call the Huo family's old house and ask the old man to send someone to pick him up. But, at three in the morning, wasn't it too late?
If the old man asked why Huo Tianyuan went to the pub to drink and was too drunk to return home, how should she answer?
Besides, why didn't she pick up her husband? Wasn't that deliberately making the Huo family suspicious whether she and he were a real couple?
Moreover, if the old man knew that Huo Tianyuan was hanging around the bar late at night, he might be so angry that his blood vessels would burst.
Gu Yichen struggled a lot in her mind, then sat up from the boat, went to the closet and picked out a set of slim and long seasonal down jackets, put them on, and put on a furry hat to cover herself up.
The sides of his face and ears were covered tightly, leaving only his nose and eyes exposed.
I walked to the entrance hall and changed into a pair of knee-length boots. The cold wave has hit these days, and the temperature in the early morning is really too low!
Gu Yichen put on her gloves again and then grabbed her coin purse. It was too late at night and she didn't dare to carry her bag. It was almost the Chinese New Year and the security on the street was not very safe.
He only put a credit card and a few hundred dollars in cash in his coin purse, thinking that it should be enough to pay for his drinks and taxi fare, and hurried out...
Gu Yichen thought that when Huo Tianyuan went out, he must have driven out.
So, instead of going to the underground parking lot to pick up her car, she took the elevator directly downstairs, hailed a taxi at the entrance of the community, and went straight to the midnight pub...
When I arrived at the pub, I got off the car at the door of the bar. Sure enough, I saw a peaceful and quiet nightclub that was usually bustling with lights and feasting.
In the huge ballroom, there were only a few dim lights illuminating the store. The salesperson in the store had already gone off work. There was only a young man with light brown-red hair on the bar, who was arranging the bar with his head lowered.
On the bright bar, there was a familiar figure. He was so drunk that he lay on the table and fell asleep motionless. With just one glance, she knew that it was her noble and reserved husband, the one who ran away in anger.
man.
The store was very quiet. She was still several meters away, but she could hear his thin breathing...
She quickened her pace and walked toward her——
After a while, the young man at the bar seemed to hear the sound of Gu Yichen's high heels walking into the store, and then he raised his head and looked in the direction of the store entrance——
He hesitated for a moment, and when he saw her eyes falling straight on the figure who was lying on the bar after drinking, he already knew it in his mind. He raised his eyebrows and greeted her, "Is this Mrs. Huo?"
?”
Gu Yichen glanced at him, with a faint look in her eyes, and extended her hand to him, pointing at the drunken man at the bar who knew nothing about it, "I'll pick him up."
The young man looked at her carefully from top to bottom solemnly, then shook his head disapprovingly, "Are you the only one coming here? I'm afraid it's a bit difficult."
With Gu Yichen's height of 165cm, it is definitely not an easy task to get this big man who is over 180cm home.
Besides, her figure still looks so slender.
However, Gu Yichen stubbornly did not ask for his help. Instead, she asked him to settle the bill with an indifferent expression. Then she took out a credit card from her orange coin purse inlaid with amethyst and handed it to him——
The young man suddenly laughed softly, pushed back the credit card in her hand, put one hand on the bar, and jumped out of it, which shocked Gu Yichen. He would not fall off such a high bar.
Bar?
But seeing him landing beautifully in a perfect half-arc shape, Gu Yichen calmed her eyes and saw that he was standing in front of her with a smile on her face, "I'm not an employee here, Mrs. Huo, there's no need to be polite to me."
================================
"..." He's not an employee here, so why are he staying here and calling himself specifically to pick up Huo Tianyuan?
Gu Yichen put away her credit card, stuffed her coin purse into the pocket of her down jacket, then bent down to help Huo Tianyuan——
However, how much alcohol did this man drink? Why was he so drunk that he was unconscious and still so heavy——
Gu Yichen raised her eyebrows sadly: "It's as heavy as a pig."
He was so heavy that as soon as she helped him up and walked a few steps, she felt some pain from the pressure on her shoulders. Coupled with his swaying steps, Gu Yichen also staggered up. The scene was really embarrassing.
She had to torment him two or three times a night, and Gu Yichen almost lost her temper.
When he was about to walk out of the store, the drunk man, who was pretending to be crazy because of his drink, grabbed the door frame and waved her away drunkenly, muttering inarticulately.
Yelling, "I won't go home! I won't go home...Gu Yichen...she hates me...she doesn't want to see me..."
Another cheerful voice came from behind, "Gu Yichen, is that your name?"
Gu Yichen turned around and smiled awkwardly, a wave of annoyance flashed across her face: Damn Huo Tianyuan! You want to make trouble again when you go home, okay? Don't embarrass yourself here!
She grabbed his arm forcefully, trying to drag him out of the pub, but she was unable to do so. She stayed in a stalemate with the drunkard for a while, but could not get rid of his big hand holding the door frame. Instead, she pulled him away from the door frame.
I was out of breath from exhaustion.
——What a shame! Mr. Huo, I am just your fake wife, not your old mother-in-law, okay? Let’s not stay here and make more noise when we go home, okay?
The expression on her face is vivid and interesting.
The man next to her looked at it for a while, then clearly gave her some advice, "Speak softer, tell him who you are, and then tell him that you want him to go home with you. Maybe he will do it himself."
I will follow you back obediently."
Um, let her be gentle to him?
Gu Yichen hesitated: from the first day she met Huo Tianyuan, there seemed to be no time for them to get along gently. She had never been gentle to him.
The young man seemed to notice her concerns. After thinking about it, he raised his eyebrows, looked straight at her, and said loudly, "Believe me, he loves you very much."
