"Miss Gu!"

Gu Chen heard someone shouting behind him.

The voice sounded familiar but strange. She didn't know whether to call her, so she didn't stop.

Then the voice was not far behind her: "Miss Gu."

It seems that only a few steps away, people in the distance came behind her.

Gu Qian turned around.

It's the guest in a white shirt.

He didn't sit. He stood up tall enough to have a light pole. After a few steps, Gu Zhen had to raise his eyes to see his face clearly.

Her heart suddenly jumped.

She raised her face slightly.

That face hasn't been seen for eight months. It has changed a lot. The eyes seemed deeper than at that time, and the look was a little different.

Just

She looked at him in surprise and thought, "Oh, it's an acquaintance."

"Miss Gu, do you remember me?" He took two more steps forward.

Gu Chen took a step back.

Her action made his heart sink. He was like a dirty man. He was afraid of being ugly and stepped back.

Gu did not answer him.

The streets are full of flowing water and pedestrians are in a hurry. Their world is static.

His fingers clenched involuntarily.

"I remember, but I don't dare to admit it." Gu Chen spoke slowly, "I don't know what to call you now?"

He was speechless for a moment.

He is still called Bai Xian, because people in Hongmen only recognize his name. Later, a noble man appreciated him for his hard work and recognized a few words, so he valued him very much.

The noble man said that the word Bai Xian is very pleasant to hear and educated. He is not just a rude man, so don't change it.

He was attracted by the comment "educated", and sure enough, he didn't change his name, which has been called until now.

"... they call me Bai Xian." He said.

Gu said, "master Bai."

When she was at the door of her study, she heard other guests call him that. She heard him right.

She remembered the three cars downstairs.

There are exactly three guests upstairs.

After just eight months' absence, he had a luxury car and a shirt with exquisite fabric.

The situation in greater Shanghai is turbulent. In such years, there are bold people who die of hunger and timid people, and upstarts everywhere. Don't say eight months, you can change your face in a month or two.

"Don't..." He looked as if he had been slapped in the face and was ashamed. "Don't call me Miss Gu like that. Don't call me like that..."

Gu Chen smiled politely.

Bai Xian paused for a few seconds and said, "it's an old acquaintance. Can you invite Miss Gu to lunch?"

Gu Qian looked at his watch.

It was time for lunch.

Today is the weekend. She doesn't have anything important, and it's just time for dinner. All the excuses have been in her mind, and she hasn't thought of a suitable sentence yet.

Bai Xian said again, "Miss Gu, give me a face?"

Gu Zhen thought that it would be impolite if he didn't appreciate it.

He is still in Hongmen, and his status is different from that of the past.

It will be more difficult for Gu Chen to offend Hongmen. After all, she has only herself.

"Thank you very much." She said.

Bai Xian snapped his fingers.

Not far or near, the people who followed him immediately turned around and ran back, and soon drove the car over.

He opened the door and asked Gu to sit down.

Gu Lei sat in the back seat.

He went round to the other side and sat side by side with her. The car drove out steadily, but the silence in the car was very strange.

Gu Chen didn't speak, and Bai Xian didn't speak.

Her Yu Guang saw his left hand on his thigh, holding it tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hand were prominent.

When Gu Zhen wanted to see it again, he noticed it, raised his hand, touched the back of his head and put his hand on the other side of his body.

"How are you recently?" He has nothing to talk to.

"OK," Gu said

The topic is broken again.

Fortunately, at this time, the car has reached the door of the restaurant.

It's a very particular restaurant.

Seeing the car, the boy hurried to help open the door and respectfully called "white master".

Bai Xian turned a deaf ear, got out of the car, trotted to the other side and opened the door for Gu Qian.

The two of them sat down in Yajian. Bai Xian asked her what she wanted to eat. After stumbling, she could finally say a few words.

"... are you the white master of Hongmen now?" She asked suddenly.

Bai Xian's heart was pierced by something.

He always felt rotten and smelly. He tried his best to cover it up, but she just wanted to open his skin and have a look at his rotten flesh and blood.

Facing his dirty body, his voice was stiff and ashamed: "yes."

Gu Chen doesn't know what to say.

She also answered stiffly, "very good."

This sentence is not well received, and the effect seems to be mocking face-to-face. When it comes to hitting people without hitting the face, her sentence is very good. It's like slapping others in the face.

Sure enough, Bai Xian's body stiffened again.

Gu Chen doesn't speak much.

When the food came up, she ate and ate silently, and her appetite didn't seem to have deteriorated.

In fact, she can't eat. She just sticks it in her mouth. In this way, she doesn't need to talk.

Bai Xian can't plug it.

After drinking a few mouthfuls of wine, he had a word in his heart that kept spinning in his throat and couldn't wait to flow out. He pressed it down several times, but finally he didn't.

So he asked Gu Chen, "are you alone now? Have you made a boyfriend?"

Gu Qian stopped the chopsticks.

She looked up at him.

Along the way, they hardly made eye contact. Now their eyes were opposite, and she saw his slightly frowned eyebrows.

He's been holding on to something.

Maybe it's pain.

Gu doesn't know if he is hurt, because his restrained actions and expressions make Gu feel as if he is suffering from great pain at the moment.

Her voice was very light: "yes, but he is not in Shanghai. He has gone to the front to be a war reporter."

Bai Xian's face turned pale.

His fingers, so obviously convulsed, trembled uncontrollably.

He stood up abruptly. "Sorry, I'm a little drunk."

Then he went out of the room.

Gu is not a smart girl and has never been in love. She doesn't understand this change.

When you don't understand, fear will arise in your heart.

Is he upset with his stomach?

His body was always a little curled up, and Gu felt that he had the impulse to huddle himself into a ball.

She can't eat any more.

About ten minutes later, Bai Xiancai came back with drops of water on his face and the collar of his white shirt was wet.

He should have gone to wash his face.

Seeing that he was very uncomfortable, Gu said, "thank you for your hospitality. Why don't we go? I've already eaten."

Bai Xian said, "I... haven't eaten yet..."

Gu had to sit down again.

The atmosphere was very embarrassing. They didn't have anything to say, so they spent it.

Gu Chen endured the impulse to look at her watch and silently dialed the dishes in front of her.

Bai Xian said he hasn't eaten yet, but he still doesn't use chopsticks and only drinks.

The meal took two hours.

He took Gu Yao home and parked his car at the gate of the alley.

"I'm bothered today." Gu said, "goodbye, master Bai."

"Goodbye, Miss Gu."

Bai Xian watched her go to the alley, turned and sat back in the car and said, "go back."

He leaned on the back seat, which drowned him in those tsunami like emotions. He was immersed in it, like a drowning man, and soon sweating all over his head.

The attendant looked at him in the rearview mirror and found something wrong with him: "master Bai, do you have any pain? Do you want to go to the hospital?" He waved his hand and a voice jumped from between his teeth: "go home!"
