Chapter 1420 Extraordinary equivalent exchange? ! (1)
after all.
Still bow to reality.
Gu Mingyue was sitting on the sofa in Room 2016, watching gossip news on her mobile phone in a somewhat reserved manner to distract herself.
She kept flipping through, her fingers almost never stopped, and only she knew that she didn't read anything, just using this way to make herself look less awkward.
The mobile phone sent a signal of low battery, guessing that if it keeps playing like this, it will shut down in less than 10 minutes.
Simply.
She checked the time at 10:[-], then put the phone away.
She actually knew that such a meeting would not be too short, and she could take her time after eating.
Taking a breath in silence, Gu Mingyue stood up from the sofa, walked to the large floor-to-ceiling windows, opened the luxurious curtains of the hotel, and looked at the endless river flowing outside Binjiang Road, against the dim lights on the shore, and the surrounding buildings. The colorful neon lights projected on the surface of the river, the beautiful night scene is easy to be addicted to, but it can't calm Gu Mingyue's restless mood at the moment.
She has been standing in front of the window dumbly, watching the couples on Binjiang Road gradually disappear.
It's late.
Her mobile phone has been automatically turned off, she doesn't even know what time it is, she just feels that her legs are a little numb.
The door was suddenly pushed open.
Gu Mingyue turned her head.
Looking at Gu Mingyue's figure, Zhao Liangying smiled generously, "I'm sorry to keep you waiting, Mr. Gu has just finished the meeting and confirmed the list of personnel for tomorrow. I didn't know you were waiting here all this time. He reported, Gu Mingyue, wait a moment."
"Secretary Zhao." Gu Mingyue called her leaving figure.
"Ok?"
"I'll go by myself, I won't bother you." Gu Mingyue said bluntly.
Zhao Liangying seemed to be in a daze for a second, then said, "You should know Mr. Gu's room number, turn right when you go out."
"Well, thank you." Gu Mingyue walked out towards the door.
Zhao Liangying looked very gentle.
Gu Mingyue is not very clear about Zhao Liangying's position next to Gu Minglu, so many times, she will deliberately treat this woman carefully.
Get out of the room.
Gu Mingyue's footsteps stopped at the door of Gu Minglu's room.
This time, he didn't let himself hesitate.
Always so hesitant, she was afraid that her heart would not be able to bear the load.
After knocking twice and waiting for half a minute, the door opened.
Gu Minglu appeared in front of her with a somewhat tired appearance. At this moment, his hair was down again, making him look even more listless.
Such non-stop meetings will tire everyone.
What's more, it should have reached the early morning hours now.
When Gu Minglu looked at Gu Mingyue, he was obviously surprised, his eyes flickered, and his tightly closed thin lips seemed to be pursed. With a magnetic hoarse voice, "You looking for me?"
"Ah."
"Come in." Gu Minglu opened the door and turned slightly.
Gu Mingyue walked in with her head down.
Walking in, standing in the middle of the luxurious presidential room, feeling a little embarrassed.
Gu Minglu closed the door and walked towards her, "Sit down wherever you want."
Gu Mingyue looked around and sat on the sofa on one side.
Gu Minglu had already changed into the hotel's white bathrobe at this moment, he turned and walked towards the open kitchen of the presidential suite, and asked, "What would you like to drink?"
"Thank you, no need." Gu Mingyue shook her head.
Gu Minglu seemed to turn his eyes to look at her, took out a bottle of mineral water from the refrigerator, took out two cups, poured two cups, then went to Gu Mingyue, gave her a cup, "have a drink."
Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Minglu, but still took it.
Both of them were holding the somewhat cold quilt, and the presidential suite was very air-conditioned, and the atmosphere between the two of them seemed to have become stiff.
"Did you have something to do with me?" Gu Minglu broke the silence and asked proactively.
"Yeah." Gu Mingyue nodded, then bit her lips tightly, holding the water glass tightly.
"Let's talk." Gu Minglu took a sip of mineral water, which seemed much more natural compared to Gu Mingyue's restraint.
The room was still a little quiet.
Gu Minglu didn't take the initiative to speak, it seemed that Gu Mingyue didn't intend to speak.
So, now it's a bit cold again.
Gu Minglu sighed helplessly, and when he was about to speak again, Gu Mingyue suddenly said, "Is there me for this layoff?"
"You care?" Gu Minglu frowned, looking closely at her nervous and trembling cheeks.
"I care about this job."
"why?"
"I need money." Gu Mingyue said bluntly, "If I lose my job, I will not have any source of income for living."
"Your husband?" Gu Minglu asked.
After asking, the fingers holding the water glass unconsciously exerted a little force.
"I'm divorced." Gu Mingyue said every word.
Gu Minglu's eyes tightened.
"So I can't lose this job." Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Minglu.
A little nervous, but much better than when I was just waiting.
"What would you do if I said you were among the layoffs?" Gu Minglu cleaned up the water glass in his hand, and casually put the glass on the side coffee table.
"I will beg you not to fire me." Gu Mingyue said bluntly.
Gu Minglu's face seemed to change a little, and his eyes just kept looking at her.
"Gu Minglu, I know that we have been separated for so many years and we don't have much affection. And I also said that I will not want a penny from the Gu family. But now, I admit that I have compromised. Defeated. I can't continue to pretend to be noble, I need money, I need it very much." Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Minglu, and finally said what was deep in her heart.
Nothing to be ashamed of.
Anyway, she is indeed not living so glamorously now.
"Since we compromised, why didn't you choose to go back home?" Gu Minglu asked her while grasping the words in her mouth.
"Because we haven't reached the end yet."
"It means that you will return to the Gu family when you reach a dead end?" Gu Minglu raised his eyebrows.
Gu Mingyue looked at Gu Minglu, pursed her lips, and remained silent.
After a while, her lips moved slightly, "Are you going to force me into a dead end?"
"What do you think?" Gu Minglu was still so casual.
So composed and calm.
"I don't know, but I hope you don't do that." Gu Mingyue smiled lightly, and said in a low voice, "I'm really afraid that one day I won't be able to accept it..."
Gu Minglu looked at Gu Mingyue's self-mockery.
He looked at him so deeply, turned around suddenly, and walked towards the big French windows.
