Chapter 289: Long Spring Rain
Gu Yuan instructed the employees in the same work area about various details in a gentle and mellow voice, which made the employees show admiring and gentle expressions. They just nodded slightly in response, fearing that any loud noise would disturb the gentle atmosphere.

Suddenly, there was an abrupt knocking sound. Gu Yuan picked up the documents dropped by the careless female assistant and turned up the temperature in the office for everyone.

He casually interrupted the female assistant's apology and said with a smile: "I can't attend the team building tonight because of something. You guys go ahead. The company will reimburse the expenses."

An employee couldn't help but joked, "Is Mr. Gu in love? I see he has to go home early to work these days."

Many employees perked up and looked at him, unable to help but join in the joke.

"Not really, it's just that I have a sick sister at home, and I have to go back and take care of her." Gu Yuan smiled, wrote down a trivial task that he suddenly remembered in his memo, and strode towards the outer room.

"Mr. Gu, someone is looking for you." The beautiful and well-dressed staff at the front desk stood up and stretched out her hand to point to the girl standing next to her.

His hair was shorter and his clothes were cut more elegantly. Looking at the handsome young man walking towards her, Song Yi thought of the words "gentle as jade". For some reason, this made her feel a little bitter.

Gu Yuan greeted Song Yi and casually glanced at her clothes. Well, a fitted bear print sweater, contrasting puffy skirt, dark tights, and knee-high boots... Baozhu didn't seem to like tights very much. She looked like she wanted to dress like Song Yi, but she was overly pursuing convenience. For example, she always wore very ordinary clothes and had enough big pockets...

Is this related to a lack of security? Perhaps it's because she wasn't well fed and clothed when she was a child... Gu Yuan couldn't help but frown and think about it.

"Second brother?" Song Yi interrupted Gu Yuan's thoughts, looking uneasy, "Am I not here at the right time?"

"It's okay, I just thought of Baozhu when I saw you. What's the matter? Is there something you came to me for?" Gu Yuan smiled and asked gently.

Song Yi shook her head, looking embarrassed, and looked at the front desk clerk beside her.

"Then let's go somewhere else to talk," Gu Yuan kindly invited Song Yi to the conference room and poured her some tea. "I heard that you and Baozhu are filming the same TV series. I'm glad that Baozhu has friends in the crew too. We can look after each other if anything happens."

Song Yi nodded, raised the corners of her lips playfully and then quickly lowered them, "Well, I'm happy too, but I don't know if Baozhu has returned home now?"

"She's at home," Gu Yuan said with a smile, "Do you want to play with Baozhu? What a coincidence! If it were any other day, I would invite you to my house to play, but Baozhu suddenly had an allergic reaction today, so I'm afraid she can't accompany you."

I heard that she went to the hospital directly after eating something wrong, and came back after getting medicine. It was really outrageous. She actually went to the hospital alone and fainted on the way... Gu Yuan thought that he needed to communicate with her about this matter. Being stubborn is not a good habit.

"Is she at home?" Song Yi looked surprised and relieved. "That's good, but why is she allergic? Is it serious?"

"She said she's stable now. I was just about to go back to see her," Gu Yuan showed worry, followed by apology, helplessness, and happiness. "But girls are more concerned about their reputation. I'm afraid they don't want to see people."

Song Yi choked, a kind of sourness tightened her heart, making her purse her lips and lower her head.

She felt strange, disgusted, and angry about this kind of happiness. Why? Why! She heard herself almost shouting.

But she still said calmly: "How did she get allergic? It's like this. Baozhu asked me for help at the banquet today. There happened to be a friend with a bad temper there. I was afraid that she would suffer, so I was very worried. Now that I think about it, it might be that friend who didn't take the food seriously enough and made Baozhu eat the food she was allergic to."

"Oh?" Gu Yuan raised his eyebrows in confusion, then pushed the tea closer and encouraged gently, "Can you tell me in detail?" Song Yi waved her hand gently, "It's okay, since Baozhu has returned home, it means everything is fine. You should go back to see Baozhu, I'm worried that she will be scared."

"It's okay, don't worry. Baozhu has a good friend like you, I'm very happy for her." Gu Yuan wiped the water cup in front of him, and all the water drops on the outside of the cup were wiped away. He didn't drink it, but just put it aside and smiled at Song Yi: "Baozhu is a very introverted child who is not good at expressing herself. She won't tell me many things. But I really want to know some interesting stories about her. Can you share them with me?"

The soft voice and kind tone made Song Yi shudder. She felt like she was trapped in some kind of nest, surrounded by fog and extremely hot.

Song Yi hesitated for only a moment. The hot steam from the tea made her face hot. When she looked at Gu Yuan through her moist eyes, it was as if there was a layer of light mist between them.

Maybe it's because a warm room always attracts people to reveal more, even if these words make him angry, angry... The good kid he thought he was was actually a flattering and despicable bastard.

Song Yi couldn't help but curl her lips and quickly took another sip of tea.

"I saw Baozhu at the party this morning. She looked very happy and her tone of voice when talking to her friends was very, very intimate. I thought she liked that boy. Then Baozhu left with those people..."

Song Yi slowly described the scene at that time, and her hazy eyes like a deer showed a little worry: "I still can't find the phone I lost, so I had to find out your location and come here."

Maybe throwing away the phone is a good thing. Song Yi finally held the tea, exhaled lightly, and the mist spread outwards, almost touching Gu Yuan's eyes.

He was still smiling. "So you just said, who did Baozhu ask to save her?"

Song Yi was stunned for a moment, "She spoke very quickly, I didn't hear clearly, but I thought it was you, so I came directly over."

Gu Yuan pulled the corners of his lips lightly, smiling faintly, "Well, good boy, you did very well."

Song Yi blushed slightly, "Anyway, I'm glad Baozhu is fine. Please don't blame Baozhu. She must not have said anything because she didn't want you to worry."

"I think so, but this will always make the adults more worried." Gu Yuan held his forehead as if he had a headache, thinking of that absurd nightmare. He kept thinking about that dream recently.

The sound of the wind suddenly became louder. Gu Yuan looked outside the window at the dense forest-like steel buildings. Ever since the company expanded and moved to higher floors, the wind was always very strong, and the sky became overcast, with signs of rain.

While thinking, raindrops fell on the window with a crackling sound. The warm light in the room seemed to make the characters in the vision warmer, and even the raindrops were adorned with a faint halo.

Spring rain always lasts longer, and I'm afraid it won't stop until very late... Gu Yuan suddenly realized something, turned his head and looked at Song Yi, with a gentle and quiet smile on his face, "Let me take you home first, it's hard to get a taxi when it rains."

"……Um."

When they walked outside, a strong wind blew and the temperature of their bodies was instantly taken away by the cold wind. Song Yi shuddered, and Gu Yuan had already put his coat on her. "Let's go, it will be warmer in the car."

Maybe it wasn't a good idea to set off at this time, but he didn't want to wait any longer.
