Chapter 13 The Self-Deceiving Liar

What Lin Xiaodong said that day always made Gu Xi a little concerned.

To talk about the person who understands young people best in the world, it must be Lin Xiamian who has lived with him since childhood.

So Gu Xi decided to talk to the other party.

Before going out this morning, he specifically asked, "Xiaodong, what kind of dishes do your brother prefer?"

Lin Xiaodong stopped the chopsticks holding the xiaolongbao for a while, but he quickly covered it up with a brisk voice: "He has a lighter taste, and generally doesn't eat too spicy food. What's the matter?"

"It's nothing, I want to invite him to dinner tonight."

Lin Xiaodong asked unintentionally, "Then will I be with you too?"

"If your brother doesn't like spicy food, then you shouldn't go with you." After Gu Xi finished eating, he wiped his mouth with a tissue, stood up and walked in front of him, "When you have free time on the weekend, I will Please go eat hot pot."

Gu Xi had heard Lin Xiaodong say before that when he was at home, he basically cooked according to his brother's taste. Men don't choose to eat, any taste is fine, but he doesn't want Lin Xiaodong to go out to eat with him and have to wait.

The young man gave a soft "um", lowered his eyes, and seemed to be a little disappointed.

But as usual, he thoughtfully helped Gu Xi tie his tie.

At the end, the young man sat back in his seat again, picked up the bowl and quietly ate breakfast.

"Aren't you coming with me?" Gu Xi asked him.

"The company has a spot check at 9:30 in the morning. I'm going to leave later." Lin Xiaodong smiled at him, "You go first, I'll bring you a meal at noon." After a pause, he added, "Remember to be careful on the road."

Gu Xi frowned, but didn't say anything, just silently took the briefcase handed by the housekeeper and got into the back seat of the car.

After the car drove out of the manor, Lin Xiaodong took a deep breath, put down his chopsticks immediately, and ran up to the second floor to start packing.

System: "What are you doing?"

"Get ready to run away," he said to the system, "Didn't you realize that since Lin Xiamian came last time, Gu Xi's attitude towards me has suddenly become a lot colder."

System: "...is there?"

Didn't you two roll the sheets until the middle of the night yesterday?

"You don't understand, the sex and the soul are separate," Lin Xiaodong said plausibly, "For example, although I am obsessed with the boss's sex, my inner soul remains pure."

system:"............"

I don't understand your human logic very well.

"Let's not say anything else," it reminded, "you still have three good person cards that you haven't collected yet, and the mission progress has not been advanced for a long time."

Lin Xiaodong thought for a while, Gu Xi counted one, Lin Xiamian still had one, and I don't know whose hands the rest belonged to.

As long as he collects all five good person cards, he can enter the next world.

"Ding~"

The phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly, Lin Xiaodong looked down and found that it was actually a message from Bai Zhizhi. She got Lin Xiaodong's number out of nowhere. The message was very brief, as casual as her character. There was only one sentence:

"My brother heard about you, he was very angry and said he wanted to find someone to teach you a lesson. Remember to pay attention when you go out recently~ Love / Love / Love"

Lin Xiaodong stared at the series of love for a long time: "...No wonder even Gu Xi thinks she is unreliable."

He sighed, put away the phone, glanced at the half-packed things, and decided to wait for the rest to come back.

The system asked, "Aren't you going to ask for leave?"

"Ask for leave and deduct full attendance." Lin Xiaodong said expressionlessly.

He felt that he must be the most miserable stand-in in the world, no one.

Work for the boss during the day and warm the bed for the boss at night.

The capitalists are in tears.

But I don't know what day it is today. After Bai Zhizhi sent him a message, Brother Long, who had not been in contact for a while, also called.

"Hey, Xiaodong," he said as loudly as always, the housekeeper who passed by frowned, but Lin Xiaodong ignored him, "How are you doing lately? I heard that you found a serious job in the Gu Group. Not bad, I already said that sooner or later you will get ahead!"

Lin Xiaodong smiled: "Anyway, I work for the boss, so it's nothing special. Brother Long, let's stop talking about these irrelevant things, just tell me, what are you looking for?"

"You still know me," Brother Long smiled, "I'm welcome, brother, does your company have a canteen?"

Lin Xiaodong asked this question a little bit inexplicably: "Yes, but we generally don't like to eat in the cafeteria. The company has meal supplements, and there is a snack street downstairs. Everyone will go downstairs to eat at noon."

"Is that so...I know!"

Lin Xiaodong was curious about why he asked these questions, but Brother Long just said that it was useful, and hung up the phone after making any excuses.

"Could it be that someone in the company owes money and refuses to pay it back?" he guessed.

He quickly forgot about it. The random inspection results in the morning basically met the standard. After the work was over, Lin Xiaodong said to the employees who were too busy to drink their saliva: "Everyone has worked hard today, and I invite everyone to dinner!"

All cheered.

After voting, they unanimously decided to go downstairs to eat skewers. Lin Xiaodong walked among the crowd with a smile. Although his heart was bleeding, sometimes the expense of entertaining guests was necessary.

When the time comes, go back and plead with someone and ask him to reimburse himself, he thought.

...but, have you forgotten something?

(Gu Xi, who was still hungry in the office waiting for him to deliver meals: "...")

Lin Xiaodong tilted his head and thought for a while, but he was distracted by the person talking next to him after a while.

In fact, the appearance of the young man can really be regarded as a male god in the Gu Group, although he is not like Gu Xi, his face is angular and handsome, so handsome that people can't look away at a glance, Lin Xiaodong At first glance, his facial features are not particularly prominent, but his eyes are very good-looking, with very beautiful cat eyes. When he smiles, he always has the urge to laugh with him.

In the past, it was because he mixed with Brother Long and the others, dyed his hair and turned himself into a flower arm, so everyone avoided him; now after returning to normal dressing, there are little girls peeking at him along the way.

Even after entering the Chuanchuan store, the proprietress gave them a few bowls of ice powder for free with a smile.

"I'll go to the bathroom first, you guys eat slowly." Being stared at by his colleagues teasingly, Lin Xiaodong couldn't sit still, so he used the Urine Escape Dafa. As soon as he left, several people present immediately started a heated discussion:

"Manager Xiaolin is really popular."

"No, after all, he is someone who can be admired by President Gu."

"I heard that he has already lived at Mr. Gu's house now? I heard from the secretary that they often commute to get off work together."

"But, how did I hear that Gu always has a fiancée...?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone at the table immediately became quiet.

"A wealthy family," an older employee sighed, "like us, just eat melons."

The topic quickly turned to Lin Xiaodong's origins, because everyone didn't know what he was doing before he came to the Gu Group, but the young man's ability is indeed very outstanding, and he is very experienced in dealing with people, he doesn't look like a newcomer to the society at all. young people. Therefore, some people guessed that he was a model, some people guessed that he was an international student, and some even thought that Lin Xiaodong must be the young master of a big family, otherwise, according to the theory of the right family, Gu Xi would not like each other.

Just as they were chatting vigorously, a loud shout came from outside the store:

"Which one is Gu Xi's little lover!?"

The Chuanchuan store, which was still full of people just now, was silent, so quiet that even the needles could be heard.

A few gangsters with yellow hair swayed in from the outside, their clothes were not well dressed, and they had to be rolled up to reveal the tattoos on their belly. Several people present looked at each other and stared at the outside in silence, not daring to make a sound at all.

"Is this here to seek revenge for Manager Xiaolin?" a girl asked in fear, but was immediately covered by a colleague next to her: "Shh, don't make a sound! I've already called the security guard in the group to come down!"

"Is no one talking? They are all dumb!"

The leader of the golden chain elder brother asked aggressively, his eyes were so fierce that the little baby not far away was scared to cry. A yellow-haired man walking beside him accidentally caught a glimpse of the badges hanging on the necks of the employees in the store, and immediately shouted loudly: "Boss, these are all employees of the Gu Group!"

"Huh?" The big brother turned his head suddenly, and swaggered into the store under the panicked eyes of everyone.

"How many of you are Gu Xi's employees?" He grinned, and patted a young man on the shoulder "kindly", making the other guy's face turn pale, "Boy, tell me, who is your boss's crush? ?"

Seeing this man stammered for a long time, unable to speak, his expression gradually became impatient, and his bull's eyes stared:

"Ask you, can you speak!"

"You... why are you looking for Manager Xiaolin?" The man shuddered and immediately explained honestly, "He, he, he went to the bathroom just now!"

"Manager Xiaolin?"

Brother Long didn't think about Lin Xiaodong at all, after all, there are so many Lin surnames in the world. He sneered and said, "Okay, then I'll wait here for him to come back-"

"Hey, Brother Long?" Lin Xiaodong wiped his hands and walked in from outside the store with a look of surprise, under the hint of his colleagues desperately using their eyes to signal him to "run away", "What do you have to do with me?"

Brother Long: "..."

He stared at the badge that Lin Xiaodong was hanging around his neck, and said, "You, are you that manager Xiaolin?"

"Yeah," Lin Xiaodong said, and glanced at the equally shocked yellow-haired people next to him, all of whom were friendly faces from the Internet cafes together, "You guys also come to eat skewers? What a coincidence, why don't you fight? a table?"

Brother Long: "...Okay."

They didn't eat when they came out this morning, and they were all hungry now.

A yellow hair asked him in a low voice, "Boss, are we still making trouble?"

"Damn it!" Brother Long slapped him on the back of his head, "You didn't take a close look when you picked up the job. Isn't this the case that the flood washed the Dragon King Temple, and your family beat your family? Give it to me when you go back. Get the money back! By the way, tell the employer that Lin Xiaodong is my brother, and whoever wants to trouble him is against me!"

The yellow hair covered his head and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, I was wrong, boss."

Colleagues watched in awe as Lin Xiaodong sat with the "big brother" who came to find fault, chatting and laughing, and the status of youth in their minds was raised to a new level - so, manager Xiaolin really is the young master of the family Bar! ?

The proprietress served them tremblingly, and before they could eat, she saw Gu Xi leading a group of security guards over with a sullen face.

The two factions looked at each other.

After explaining that it was a false alarm, Lin Xiaodong looked at Lin Xiamian who was standing beside Gu Xi, his eyes widened slightly, and his tone was a little surprised: "Xia Mian, why are you with him?"

But looking at his expression, it seemed to be expected.

Lin Xiamian replied, "It's Gu Xi... Boss Gu called me and asked me if I was free to have lunch together at noon."

Lin Xiaodong looked at Gu Xi, but the man deliberately avoided his sight, staring at the dazzling dishes on the table: "Have you eaten?"

"Yeah, together?"

Gu Xi ignored him with a cold face.

He waited for Lin Xiaodong in the office for a full hour and a half, and was worried that the other party had encountered some trouble and was entangled. After seeing the news in the group, he immediately brought someone downstairs to look for him.

In the end, it was good for this little conscience, and he completely forgot about him.

Seeing that the man didn't speak, Lin Xiaodong smiled: "Yes, Xia Mian can't eat spicy food, then you go-"

"I'm fine." Lin Xiamian sat down beside him.

After a long absence, he looked at Lin Xiaodong's profile with a hint of sadness in his eyes:

"Brother, I haven't eaten with you for a long time."

After saying that, he glanced at the dishes on the table, and naturally took a bunch of fish tofu and put it in Lin Xiaodong's bowl: "I remember that you liked to eat this before, brother, you seem to have lost weight recently. eat."

Gu Xi frowned.

After letting the security guards outside the store go back first, he also moved a chair over.

"Let it go." He said calmly.

Looking at his dark and indifferent eyes, Brother Long shivered inexplicably and silently gave way to another position beside Lin Xiaodong.

The man held a plate of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes and placed it in front of Lin Xiaodong.

"Eat." He said succinctly.

Others here: I think we're a little redundant.

But before Lin Xiaodong could say anything, Lin Xiamian next to him immediately said, "Thank you, Mr. Gu, I like this one the most." With that said, facing Gu Xi's death ray, he cheekily moved the plate of brown sugar glutinous rice cakes. in front of him.

Lin Xiaodong stared blankly at the two of them flirting with each other across his face, picked up a bowl of ice powder and drank it.

He couldn't take it anymore.

Tomorrow, tomorrow he will run away!
