She smiled, turned to wave to Gu Jingting, and said in an excited tone, "What are you still doing? Come quickly and bring your things. It's such a cold day, don't let Qiao Qiao catch a cold."
Song Qiao lowered her head, not daring to look at Gu Jingting at all.
She turned aside to let the old lady enter the house and took out the dishes and chopsticks from the kitchen.
Suddenly there were three more people, and the seats had to be readjusted. Mrs. Gu was the elder, so she had to sit in the main seat. Song Qiao gave up her seat and replaced her with clean dishes and chopsticks.
"Oh, I haven't seen Qiqi and Xiaotang for a long time. They really miss me." Mrs. Gu looked at Song Qiao expectantly, "Is it okay if I let them sit next to me?"
"Of course." Song Qiao did not hesitate.
Usually when they eat as a family, the seats are not particular about them. Now that the old lady likes children and wants to get closer, there is no problem.
"Okay, come sit down quickly." Mrs. Gu was very interested.
She placed the two little ones on her left and right, and two seats on the table suddenly became vacant, one on Song Qiao's left and the other on Zhao Gege's right.
Lao Li knew what his old lady was thinking, so he quickly grabbed the seat next to Zhao Gege and said with a naive smile, "I'm a little hungry, so you're welcome."
"It's okay, it's okay, eat more." Aunt An was hospitable.
As a result, the seat next to Song Qiao was naturally vacated. Gu Jingting looked at her expression and did not go over immediately. Instead, he asked with his eyes.
Song Qiao didn't know how to respond.
She stood there, looking at the empty space beside her, feeling as if she was being held up high in the sky, in a dilemma.
Mrs. Gu secretly took in their interaction and pretended not to notice it, "Jing Ting, why are you still standing? Come and sit down."
Song Qiao sighed helplessly, as if she missed the opportunity because of hesitation.
If I could have reacted immediately and let Zhao Gege sit next to me, there would be no need to face such a situation now.
That's all, it would be too abrupt to suggest changing positions at this time.
Song Qiao silently pulled the chair towards Momo, and then said calmly, "Yes, Mr. Gu, come and sit."
Gu Jingting squinted his eyes and clearly saw her secret movements, and couldn't help but sneer. This posture made him want to create a world between Chu and Han.
"Okay." He walked over and pulled up the chair, invisibly bringing him closer to Song Qiao.
The space that I barely managed to free up was gone again.
Song Qiao lowered her head and could smell the subtle woody fragrance coming from Gu Jingting's body without trying hard. From the corner of her eye, she could see the man's elbow from time to time.
Too close, too close.
Song Qiao thought and wanted to continue to lean towards Momo.
"Bao, I know you want to keep a distance from Mr. Gu, but if you push closer to me, I will fall!" came the voice of Momo gritting his teeth.
Song Qiao turned around and found that half of her body was already hanging in the air.
At this moment, because of Song Qiao's movements, he was trying hard to maintain his balance, but it seemed a little difficult.
Song Qiao laughed sarcastically and had no choice but to go back. Momo was relieved and sat back down and whispered, "It's not worth it. It's just a meal. Are you so afraid of it?"
Her face was full of hatred that iron could not become steel.
Song Qiao was silent for a moment and said, "How about you do it instead?"
"..."
Momo was silent for a long time, then turned around and muttered, "The eight-treasure duck cooked by Mrs. An today tastes good. I need to eat two more bites. I don't know when I can go there next time."
joke!
She dared to do this just because Gu Jingting was interested in Song Qiao. How could she dare if she were herself?
That was Gu Jingting, not to mention that she was scary before, but now she was her immediate boss, the man with the power of life and death in her hands, so she had the guts to not kneel down to pick him up.
Song Qiao pouted and turned back to eat.
Although there were three more people at the New Year's Eve dinner, Mrs. Gu was like a living treasure, playing with the two little guys in various ways. In addition, Zhao Gege and Momo also let go later, so the atmosphere was not bad.
Only Song Qiao was always a little awkward,
There was no way, Gu Jingting sitting next to her had such a strong sense of presence that no matter what he did, Song Qiao would catch him, and he would start to guess what he wanted to do.
After a few times, she felt physically and mentally exhausted.
Forget it, in front of so many people, even if Gu Jingting wanted to do something, he probably wouldn't have a chance.
On the other hand, if you are so awkward, it will be easier for someone to notice that there is something wrong with you, so just be natural and treat him as an ordinary friend.
"What? You're not afraid of me anymore?" Gu Jingting asked.
He was always paying attention to Song Qiao, and naturally saw her gradually relaxing.
Song Qiao's heart suddenly rose. She took a deep breath and tried to appear natural. "I wasn't afraid at first." After a pause, she said as if to make up for it, "I just didn't get used to it before."
"After all, normal employees should be worried when the boss comes to eat at home," she said with a smile.
Song Qiao raised his head, completely exposing his smiling face to his sight.
The flesh that was lost due to injury has recently grown back under Aunt An's care, and her cheeks have become somewhat rosy, making her look smooth and fair.
Her brows relaxed completely, and she no longer looked cramped before.
Gu Jingting looked at it, his heart filled with panic again.
He hopes that Song Qiao can accept him, but not as he is now, treating him completely as a friend or boss. What he wants is not these.
Gu Jingting's eyes were dark, as if he could swallow people up at any time.
Song Qiao started to beat her heart, but her face remained calm.
It doesn't matter if she's scared, she is an actress after all and can act.
"Since you know that I am the boss, you must obey whatever I ask you to do, right?" Gu Jingting didn't know what he thought of, and his expression suddenly relaxed.
Song Qiao was secretly wary, "Yes, yes, but if it violates laws and disciplines, and violates morals, I definitely can't agree to it."
"What are you thinking about?" Gu Jingting chuckled and said slowly, "I am also a good citizen who abides by laws and regulations."
He bit hard on the last four words.
The ominous premonition in Song Qiao's heart deepened. She hesitated for a moment and asked, "What does Mr. Gu want me to do?"
Gu Jingting glanced at the food on the table and said lazily, "When I went out today, I accidentally sprained my hand. It's not convenient to pick up the food. How about you help me?"
Song Qiao didn't even think about it, "No."
Gu Jingting had expected this, lowered his head and asked calmly, "I'm just asking you to pick up the food. It's neither illegal nor moral, so why can't it be done?"
Song Qiao was speechless.
Both parties knew the reason why he proposed this condition, but how could they put it out there?
Her head was spinning rapidly, and she finally said, "We should wait for Mr. Gu's future girlfriend to do this. It's not good for me to do it now."
"If she finds out later, what should she do if she becomes jealous?"
