Chapter 40 Can you bear it?

Author: Nan Ruoruo

Li Mianmian didn't get any response from Gu Yanci, only the sound of his gentle breathing was heard in her ears.

She turned her head and looked over - the man was already asleep.

"He also said that he would definitely not get drunk..."

Li Mianmian complained softly, pushed Gu Yanci to the inside of the sofa, and went to the bedroom to get a blanket to cover him.

Since he was drunk, he deserved to spend the night on the sofa.

With such a big man, she definitely wouldn't have the strength to get him back to the bedroom.

After simply clearing away the garbage on the table, Li Mianmian squatted in front of Gu Yanci and looked at him again.

In the end, she just caressed his face reluctantly, then sighed quietly, got up and went back to the bedroom to sleep.

When I got up the next day, Gu Yanci was no longer at home.

In the afternoon, Li Mianmian received a message from Gu Yanci, saying that he was very busy today and might not come home until late at night, and asked her to lock the door.

She replied "OK" and didn't pay much attention.

The signing day at the studio is getting closer and closer. Although Li Mianmian has the privilege of getting off work early, she is really embarrassed to push her own affairs to others, so she continues to work after getting home these days.

At ten o'clock in the evening, Li Mianmian closed his laptop, but Gu Yanci showed no sign of coming back.

She originally thought about having a midnight snack together when he came back, but she didn't expect that he would work overtime to this point.

After watching a TV series boredly for a while, the wall clock reached eleven thirty, and Li Mianmian couldn't stand it any longer, so she had to go to bed first.

She didn't hear Gu Yanci coming home until she fell asleep that night.

When I got up the next day, Gu Yanci was gone again.

If it weren't for the breakfast he made on the table, Li Mianmian would almost have thought that he had never come back at all.

This kind of living under the same roof but never seeing each other lasted for about a week. The big contract for the studio was finally signed, and Li Mianmian's bonus was received.

So she called Gu Yanci while having lunch and wanted to invite him to have a big dinner together to celebrate her first bonus.

However, Gu Yanci was silent for a while and then said, "I'm going to be on a business trip for a while."

Li Mianmian was stunned for a moment: "Ah? Then... when will you set off?"

"I'll leave tonight." Gu Yanci said, "I'll go home and pack my things in the afternoon."

"oh……"

When I went home in the afternoon, Li Mianmian was still at work.

In other words, they can no longer meet each other.

She felt sour in her heart: "Why are you so busy recently..."

"Yeah." Gu Yanci said vaguely, "The company has a lot going on these days."

Li Mianmian knew that she actually had no position to interfere with his work matters, so she could only let out a frustrated breath: "Okay."

After hanging up the phone, the more she thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong.

Although Gu Yanci is indeed very busy on weekdays, but... isn't this too coincidental?

And after finally taking the initiative to ask him to have a meal, he ended up going on a business trip that day?

If this is not a coincidence, there is only one explanation - Gu Yanci is deliberately avoiding her.

As for why he avoids her...the reason is obvious.

Tracing back to the time when his recent abnormality started, it was after he got drunk that night.

There was nothing wrong with being drunk, but the problem was that she took advantage of Gu Yanci's drunkenness to say some dirty words to him.

I originally thought he was asleep and didn't hear me, but looking at it this way, it turned out that he didn't sleep at all that day.

Li Mianmian did not expect this result in advance.

Because she was actually a little tipsy that day, she didn't think about the consequences when she spoke.

She was relieved when she saw Gu Yanci asleep. She never thought about what she would do if Gu Yanci heard those words.

In this situation...there is no other way for now.

Even if he wants to do something, it will have to wait until he comes back from his business trip.

Then she would just stay up all night, if she didn't believe she wouldn't be able to stop him.

-

Gu Yanci did hear what Li Mianmian said.

Because of this, he was so frightened that he woke up from drinking and didn't know what kind of reaction he should make, so he had to lie on the sofa and pretend to be asleep.

After the reunion, he considered many issues and tried to change himself.

But what he didn't expect was that Li Mianmian actually liked him.

He had some vague feelings when he was a child, but he really didn't pay much attention to it at the time. He always felt that the child was still young and would forget it when he grew up.

Who knew she could last so long?

For Gu Yanci, this is really a very difficult question to make.

He didn't want to hurt Li Mianmian in any way.

Gu Yanci had never thought about falling in love.

In other words, he only briefly considered it, and the result was that he would never fall in love in this life.

Therefore, the matter of falling in love itself is not something worth worrying about again and again for Gu Yanci. Like all other external things, as long as it is anything Li Mianmian needs, as long as he has such a thing, he is willing to give it.

But for Li Mianmian, falling in love is not just about external things.

Therefore, while giving, he had to consider what impact this would have on Li Mianmian.

After all, the meaning of this kind of thing to him is different from that of ordinary people. In fact, it is neither a toy nor a gem, so it cannot be given away casually as a gift.

If he is from an ordinary family and has an ordinary personality, then there is a high probability that he will agree to be with her. It has nothing to do with love, he just doesn't want to make her sad.

He can guarantee his loyalty, and he can also guarantee that he will protect her for the rest of his life.

But he doesn't have an ordinary family, nor does he have an ordinary character.

He even had the blood of violent elements on his body.

He wasn't sure if he would be like Gu Yun one day.

So he didn't dare...

Li Mianmian can clearly find a better person than him.

She now has a happy family, excellent academic performance, and a good career.

She has her own friends and many suitors around her. She can find a boy with a clean family and live a happy life.

He will always watch her and always protect her from any harm.

This should be the normal trend.

This is the best result.

His Mumu deserves the best in the world.

...But why did she get into the thick of things like him?

Ever since hearing Li Mianmian's words, Gu Yanci couldn't sleep for several nights, always thinking about how to achieve perfection.

However, after several days, he still couldn't come up with a result, so he had to avoid her for now.

But it’s okay to hide like this all the time.

To avoid this method, Gu Yanci used it once a year ago.

At that time, he thought that avoiding her would make her gradually forget, but it turned out that this method was not practical at all.

After all, they hadn't seen each other for almost a year, but Li Mianmian still couldn't let go.

What else can be done?

Gu Yanci thinks about this every day until his head is almost bald, and he is not doing well at work. It happens that there are not many things going on in the company recently, and Li Mianmian calls him again to ask him to have dinner. The stone hangs on the top of his head, so he simply gives it to the company

I asked for a leave and decided to rest for a few days to sort this out.

Gu Yanci has been busy with work these years and has never taken a vacation. After finally getting a vacation, he didn't know where to go.

After much deliberation, I still had no choice but to seek help from Yan Shinan, a bad friend.

In the past few years, Yan Shinan's family business has been getting bigger and bigger, and his parents' careers are very prosperous, so he has become a veritable rich second generation. After graduating from a vocational high school, he hung around doing nothing for more than a year, and suddenly he went to start a business on a whim.

Going to a motorcycle shop can be considered as a way to combine it with my hobby.

But he said he was in the driving business, but in fact he was only responsible for paying people, and most of the work was recruiting people. He himself was a hands-off shopkeeper.
