C1 They Met Again
In a restaurant playing soft music, two eyes met, time seemed to freeze at this moment. Idol dramas were often played. As long as two pairs of eyes met, sparks would inevitably appear. It was extremely rare in real life. More often than not, there would be a person who would shift his gaze away first.
Shen Yishu never would have thought that when she met Gu Boyan again, she would actually be holding a plate and he was dressed in a suit and a shoe. Clearly, he was dressed like a business elite. Just by looking at their appearances, one could see that there was a huge difference. The smile on her lips froze. The love she had in the past had turned into a trace of disgust.
It had been three years since she last saw Gu Boyan. He still looked the same as he remembered. His expression was cold, and arrogance was mixed between his brows. His eyes that were deep like an ocean were like he was looking down on everyone in the world. Very quickly, she once again raised her professional smile, as if she had never met Gu Boyan before. She placed the two menus on the table. "Sir, Miss, please look at the menus. "
Gu Boyan's expression did not change, and he did not even look at her, as if the two of them were strangers.
Apart from looking at her just now, he quickly shifted his gaze away from her. That disdainful look was in line with Gu Boyan's cold personality. She was very curious about which woman could make Gu Boyan look at her directly.
It was rare to have a meal with her brother in the restaurant. She did not expect to meet Shen Yishu, whom she had not seen for three years, who she had not seen for three years. Gu Tongyu cast a cold glance at her and said disdainfully. "Shen Yishu, I have not seen you for three years. You actually became a waiter!"
Gu Tongyu had always been at odds with her, and every time the two of them met, they would end up mocking each other. As usual, she would have definitely quarreled with Gu Tongyu if it was three years ago. But now, she would not. She replied indifferently. "There is nothing wrong with being a waiter!"
"I don't want your service. Change to another person. " Gu Tongyu raised the corner of her lips and a disdainful smile bloomed on her face.
The customer was God. In order to earn the money in God's pocket, God could say anything. She adhered to this principle and called another waiter to serve them. She then went to serve the customers at the other table.
After three years without any change in her exquisite face, Gu Boyan glanced at her from the corner of his eye. Her expression was still cold, and there was not a trace of warmth in her eyes.
Gu Tongyu asked as she flipped through the menu. "Brother, Shen Yishu has been reduced from a rich family's daughter to a waiter. Are you sad or happy?" Shen Yishu must have lived a very difficult life. Otherwise, with her pride, she would not have become a waiter in the restaurant.
Gu Boyan coldly swept his gaze over her. He glanced at his sister. "Her matter has nothing to do with me. "
Staring at her big brother's cold expression, Gu Tongyu sneered. "It has nothing to do with you. But I have loved you at least once!" He still remembered Shen Yishu chasing after his big brother. That was a grand occasion. Everyone in the circle knew that Shen Yishu liked her big brother. In the end, it was a pity that her big brother did not like Shen Yishu. Thinking about it, The bankruptcy of the Shen Family that year also had her big brother's credit.
Gu Boyan pursed his thin lips, and a displeased aura emanated from within. "If you asked me out to talk about this, then you can scram. "
Since she could be so cold to her own sister, Gu Tongyu did not expect her big brother to be able to melt this ice mountain. She glanced at Shen Yishu who was busy and smiled. "I know Shen Yishu is a memory that you cannot bear to look back on. Alright, I will not mention it anymore. " She asked her big brother out not to tell her big brother about Shen Yishu.
The two siblings were talking about something. The dishes served by the waiter were almost untouched. It seemed that they were only here to find a place to talk.
She was busy greeting the guests and did not notice what Gu Boyan and Gu Tongyu were talking about. It was not easy for her to finally have some free time. She sat by the side. She looked at the quarter-of-season profit report. She heard the discussion of a few young girls who weren't even twenty yet. She listened carefully. She could hear that the few young girls were talking about how handsome Gu Boyan was and how beautiful Gu Tongyu was. The two of them looked like a match made in heaven.
It was not the first time she had heard someone say that Gu Boyan and Gu Tongyu were a couple. She could not help but raise her lips. One looked like a mother, and the other looked like a father. They were a completely different pair of handsome men and beautiful women. No wonder others thought they were a couple.
While Gu Tongyu was talking to her big brother, she would occasionally glance at Shen Yishu with a profound look in her eyes.
The result was the same as her guess and her big brother still did not agree. Gu Tongyu felt that there was no need for her to continue talking to her big brother and went straight back, leaving her big brother alone in the dining room.
Calculating the profit report, she felt that there was a gaze on her. She lifted her eyes and met Gu Boyan's gaze. An awkward feeling was about to spread out from her eyes. The brainless things that Gu Boyan had done in the past were repeatedly displayed in her mind at this moment. She held her forehead and naturally shifted her gaze away.
When did Gu Boyan leave? She did not notice that when she looked in his direction again, his figure had already disappeared.
When she saw Gu Boyan again, she no longer had the same excitement as before. Her love had also drifted away with the wind three years ago. When she saw him, it was as if she saw someone she knew. Initially, she wanted to greet Gu Boyan in a friendly manner, but when she saw that his expression was exactly the same as before, she thought that it was better to pretend that she didn't know Gu Boyan.
After a busy day, she felt a little sore at her waist and back. She returned to the office and prepared to change her uniform.
Before she changed her uniform, the restaurant manager walked in and asked weakly. "Boss, I want to ask, when do you plan to implement this year's pay raise plan?"
The woman who was over 30 years old was the manager she hired to manage the restaurant. She suddenly remembered Gu Tongyu's disdain for her. She could guess that Gu Tongyu must have thought that her life was very difficult. She had to rely on being a waiter to earn living expenses. Comparing Gu Tongyu's guess and the assets under her name, Actually, she should have waived Gu Tongyu's food money to prevent others from thinking that her life was very difficult.
She pursed her red lips and revealed a faint smile on her face as she raised her eyes to look at the restaurant manager. "Next month. "
Receiving the boss's affirmative answer, the restaurant manager smiled and left.
Due to the lack of staff in the restaurant, she temporarily served as a waiter for a day and met two more. Her acquaintances whom she had not seen for three years, this day really affected her cheerful mood a little.
When she drove home and opened the door, she was not surprised to see a pink and tender face. She could not help but reach out and pinch it. The chubby face felt very good. "Little bean. "
Shen Qiaoran turned around and saw that she had pinched her daughter's face. She frowned. "Shen Yishu, how many times have I told you? Don't pinch her face!"
She took off her coat and glanced at Shen Qiaoran. "If you want me to not pinch her face, you can. You can move out from here. "
When the topic of moving out was mentioned, Shen Qiaoran instantly became dispirited and dejected. "Shen Yishu, I am your biological sister. Can't you have a little sister relationship with me?!"
She bent down and pinched her niece's cheek again. "Xiao, your mother actually told me about sisters. Do you think it is funny?"
Xiao was the name of the two year old bean curd in front of her. Her name was Shen Xiao and her nickname was Xiao.
Xiao was just two years old and did not understand the words of the aunt. Her big eyes blinked.
She pursed her lips and smiled and straightened her back. "Shen Qiaoran, your daughter is silent. Don't talk so much nonsense with me. After finding the house, quickly move it away for me. "
Shen Qiaoran was her younger sister who shared the same mother but different father. Her appearance was the same as hers. It was all up to her mother. Little Shen smiled like Shen Qiaoran. Therefore, just by looking at her appearance, Little Shen Xiao also looked somewhat similar to her. For Shen Qiaoran, who had never had a good relationship with him since young, She did not have much brotherly love, so there was no way. They had been in different places since they were young, so they could not foster any sisters. If not for the fact that Little Shen Xiao was cute, She would not have let Shen Qiaoran move in.
"Shen Yishu, can't you be a little sympathetic? I really don't have money!" Shen Qiaoran pretended to be pitiful. "We are sisters after all. So what if you treat me better?"
"What is compassion? You can't eat that. " She really did not want to live with Shen Qiaoran and her daughter. It was comfortable to live alone. "I can lend you the money. You can move out next month. "
She knew that no matter how much she said, she could not change her mind. Shen Qiaoran chose not to say anymore. She hugged her daughter tightly and her face was full of grief.
There were two more people in the house and it was still inconvenient. She also urged Shen Qiaoran to quickly find a house to move out.
Shen Qiaoran also wanted to move out quickly. Helplessly, she could not find a suitable house and could only continue living.
She fiddled with the rearview mirror and looked at the innocent Shen Qiaoran a few times and controlled her anger. "Forget it, I'll drive. "
Shen Qiaoran could not wait for her to drive. She did not say anything and quickly carried her daughter into the car.
There were a lot of things to do and she still had to drive Shen Qiaoran and her daughter out to shop to buy clothes. It was quite annoying.
She suddenly moved from another city back to the capital. Shen Qiaoran had a lot of things that needed to be bought. She shamelessly dragged her and refused to let her go. "Sister, it is not convenient for me to carry Xiao to buy things. Help me take a look at her. "
Just as she was about to leave, Shen Qiaoran pulled her hand. She lowered her eyes to look at Xiao who was blinking and helplessly said. "Alright, come back quickly. " As she said, she carried Xiao and walked towards a high-class restaurant not far away.
Shen Qiaoran saw this and decided to end the battle quickly and buy the things quickly.
She brought a child who had just turned two years old. Yet, this child and her looked exactly like each other. There were some similarities. Once she entered the restaurant, the waiters treated them as mother and daughter. It was a fact that they were similar. She had explained too many times that Xiao was not her child. She could not be bothered to explain and just let others think whatever they wanted.
Xiao was very obedient. Her mother was not by her side and did not cry. Just like her, she quietly sat on the chair.
She carefully fed Xiao warm water. Xiao's pink face was like a flower, smiling like a flower. She did not know what she saw that was worth being happy about. The phone rang and she stopped drinking water for Xiao. She took out her phone and answered the call.
"Mom, I want to drink water!"
The childish voice from the milk sounded. Xiao opened her eyes wide and looked at her aunt.
After hanging up the phone and hearing Xiao call her mother again, she felt that her head was going to get bigger. Xiao was still too young and her ability to recognize people was very poor. She kept calling her mother and it was all because Shen Qiaoran's face looked too similar to hers. She could not be bothered to correct Xiao's way of calling and continued to feed Xiao water.
After she finished feeding, she looked up and was prepared to call the waiter to bring another cup of warm water over but she did not expect to see the shocked Gu Tongyu. She could not help but lower her eyes to look at Xiao and then look at Gu Tongyu, not knowing what Gu Tongyu was shocked about.
Gu Tongyu was invited by a friend to come over to eat but unexpectedly met Shen Yishu again. When she saw the little girl sitting beside Shen Yishu, a bad idea surfaced in her heart. She put away her shocked expression and indifferently swept a few glances at them before walking straight past them.
