To look deeply into

Chapter 19

Gu Qingsheng was squatting down to clean up the broken porcelain. Seeing her feet, he immediately shouted, "Don't come in!"

She stepped back and looked at his slender white hand. She couldn't help but ask, "Are you hurt?"

He suddenly looked up at her, then quickly looked away and cleaned up the kitchen.

Qiao Mo stepped in and took his hand to look. Sure enough, she saw a deep cut on his left palm.

When she found the first aid kit and applied medicine on his hand, she nagged like an old lady, "Why are you so stupid? What if you have a scar on such a beautiful hand?

Don't use a knife in the future. Don't even enter the kitchen … "

"You have to remember that this scar is for you."

Qiao Mo was stunned. She looked up at him. His eyes were deep and his emotions were complicated. Her heart was beating wildly. She immediately lowered her head. "Anyway, don't use a knife anymore."

"Then how am I going to eat?"

Knowing that he was setting a trap for her, Qiao Mo put away the first aid kit and smiled. "Eat outside."

She wanted to make the atmosphere better, but this time Gu Qingsheng did not follow her. He was still silent. His right hand rubbed the wound on his left hand twice.

She worriedly separated his hand and glared at him. Then she went to the kitchen to get the food.

Gu Qingsheng's eyes followed her until she disappeared behind the door.

After setting the table, she shouted, "It's time to eat."

She shouted again, but he was gone. The sofa was empty. The bright red wedding invitation was out of place in his house. Inexplicably, she walked over and put it away.

She looked for him in every room. Finally, she heard the sound of water in his bathroom. Worried about his wound, she knocked on the door and said, "Your hand is still injured. Don't touch the water."

Gu Qingsheng had only turned on the shower and did not get wet. But when he heard her voice, he immediately took off his clothes, washed under the water, and came out with a towel wrapped around him.

Qiao Mo was standing at the door. When she heard the door open, she jumped in fright. The first thing she saw was his muscular body. Her small face reddened, but she was worried about his wound. She could only turn around and say with her head down, "Put on your clothes first."

She didn't expect him to press himself against her from behind. His wet body soaked her clothes, and his whole body was burning hot.

She wanted to escape, but he held onto her waist. She was powerless to break free.

"Can you put on your clothes first?"

"I don't want to wear it."

After being rejected so quickly, Qiao Mo's face turned even redder. His heart almost jumped out of his chest as he said, "I'm worried about your wound."

He suddenly released her and sat on the edge of the bed. He held out his hand and said, "Look."

"…"

Qiao Mo took the first aid kit from outside and knelt on the bed to bandage him again. This time, she was very quiet.

After the bandage was done, Qiao Mo looked at him sternly and warned him again, "Don't touch water until it scabs."

"You bathed me?"

Knowing that he was a clean freak, she couldn't say that she wouldn't wash up for a few days. She could only say, "It's just that your left hand can't touch water, and it's only for a few days. You'll be fine after wiping your body."

"Not feeling well."

She didn't know if it was an illusion, but the way he spoke made the atmosphere around him much stronger. It was as if he was as cold as when he was in the company.

She suddenly became timid. She lowered her head and whispered, "There's no other way. Anyway, you can't touch water."

He suddenly approached her and tempted her with a low voice, "Stay with me for a few days, okay?"

Because they were so close, it was almost like they were living together. However, she had to go home to sleep every day. This was her bottom line.

"No."

"You can sleep in the bedroom opposite."

Although they slept separately, she was still afraid that she wouldn't be able to resist moving back. She insisted, even though she only had a little bit of rationality left. "No, there's still the Jiuyue."

"You usually throw some cat food to it. It's not a big problem whether you go back or not."

"…" Was she so heartless to the Jiuyue?

She still insisted, "I don't think it's appropriate for us to be like this."

He stopped talking and got out of bed. Qiao Mo thought that her protest was successful. She breathed a sigh of relief and felt a little disappointed.

The sound of running water came from the bathroom. She was shocked and immediately went in to take a look. He was using his left hand to turn on the water.

She was so angry that she turned off the water and shouted at him, "You're crazy!"

Gu Qingsheng looked at her coldly. His attitude was still cold. "Stay with me for a few days. I won't touch you."

She was also angry. "What's the point?

Aren't we usually together except for going to work and sleeping? "

She didn't understand the worry in his heart at the moment. Now he only had one thought, and that was to put her as close to him as possible.

The atmosphere dropped to the freezing point.

He didn't seem to feel her anger. He repeated, "Stay with me for a few days."

"No, I don't care about you anymore!"

Qiao Mo ran home and immediately changed the password. She ran into the room and covered herself with the quilt, crying softly.

She felt that he was being unreasonable. Originally, her nerves were in a mess because of Yuan Jiacheng's wedding. At this moment, the pain was magnified to the extreme.

Gu Qingsheng was still standing in the bathroom. The bandage on his left hand was soaked with blood. It mixed with the water and turned red.

Feeling the clear pain, he frowned and pulled off the bandage. Looking at the wound that was still bleeding, he clenched his fist tightly.

Blood gushed out and dripped onto the floor.

After crying for a while, Qiao Mo lay on the bed and fell asleep.

Gu Qingsheng stood on the balcony. He changed into his pajamas and held a bottle of beer. There were three or four empty cans piled up beside him.

The night was cold. He reached out and closed the window that she had opened.

The cold war had begun.

For two weeks, the two of them didn't see each other.

Xu Yaxi asked Lian Cheng. Lian Cheng saw that Gu Qingsheng had been working hard for the past few days. His eyes were bloodshot. He guessed that there was something wrong with their relationship. He stammered and said that he was on a business trip and would only be back at the end of the month.

She looked at Qiao Mo's absent-minded expression and couldn't help but feel sorry for her. She replied, "It's best if you never come back!"

Qiao Mo heard it but didn't say anything. Her fingers tapped on the keyboard completely subconsciously.

Zhang Yang came to look for her again with the computer problem. Qiao Mo didn't have the energy to deal with him. She rejected him bluntly. "I'm not free."

Xu Yaxi stood in front of her and rejected him with a smile. "Qiao Mo has been in a bad mood recently. Don't make her angry."

Zhang Yang was even happier inside. He said reservedly, "Sorry to disturb you. I'll come again next time."

Watching him disappear through the door, Xu Yaxi sighed. "Again? He's such a handsome guy. Can't you back off?"

Then, he looked at Qiao Mo's haggard face and became angry. He rolled his eyes and discussed it with his colleagues.

The next day, after work, Xu Yaxi dragged Qiao Mo to a restaurant with the excuse of a gathering.

However, it seemed that the two of them had arrived early. There was no one there. Xu Yaxi said, "Maybe those blockheads couldn't find a private room. I'll go make a call. You sit here and wait for the waiter to order. We're not picky."

A few minutes later, an uninvited guest came instead of the waiter.

Qiao Mo glanced at him and didn't say anything.

Zhang Yang was wearing a black jacket, which made him look even more handsome. He sat beside her but didn't get too close. This made Qiao Mo let down her guard.

He explained, "I have a good relationship with some people in your department. They asked me to come with you."

"Yeah."

Qiao Mo replied calmly. He was hoping that Xu Yaxi would hurry back. However, he didn't expect that she was the one who had arranged this.

Zhang Yang poured her a cup of tea. She smiled and thanked him.

After a moment of silence, he spoke again. "Although I'm in the HR department, I actually hate crowded places. I came here today because of you."

She didn't expect him to be so direct. She didn't know how to react. She looked up and gasped.

The two of them were suddenly very close to each other. Qiao Mo immediately stood up and walked to the door. "Sorry, I think I should go."

Xu Yaxi took the opportunity to enter. There was a large group of people behind him. He laughed. "Computer science students are really stubborn. There are so many of you, but you can't find a place."

Everyone smiled. Qiao Mo was too embarrassed to leave. He sat back down beside Zhang Yang.

During the meal, Zhang Yang kept putting food in her bowl. Under everyone's ambiguous gazes, Qiao Mo put down his chopsticks, grabbed his bag, and was about to leave.

Xu Yaxi immediately stopped him and whispered, "Aiya, I'll get someone to change seats with him. We still have to go to the KTV later. Don't ruin everyone's mood."

Qiao Mo could only sit down and didn't touch his chopsticks again.

Xu Yaxi whispered to Zhang Yang and used the excuse of going to the bathroom to change seats with his colleagues in the R&D department.

Xu Yaxi drank some wine at the restaurant. When they arrived at the KTV, he drank even more. He held the microphone and shouted at the top of his lungs.

Qiao Mo was worried about her. He sat in the corner and watched while sipping his drink.

Half an hour later, the people in the R&D department were almost drunk. Only Zhang Yang and Qiao Mo were still sober.

He sat beside her with a bottle of wine in his hand. He clinked his drink with hers and drank half the bottle in one gulp.

Qiao Mo frowned when she smelled the alcohol on his body. She wanted to move away from him, but he leaned closer. Finally, when Qiao Mo was about to stand up, he grabbed her wrist and pressed her down on the sofa.

He leaned on her shoulder and confessed in his drunken state. "I know I'm not good enough for you, but I also know that I like you. I have to fight for it … Didn't someone say that?

The most regretful thing in life is not the things you didn't do, but the things you didn't even dare to try … Qiao Mo, give me a chance. I'll be good to you. "

Qiao Mo tried to push his hand away and said, "Zhang Yang, you're drunk."

"Yes, I'm drunk …"

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly leaned forward to kiss her.

Qiao Mo immediately turned her head to avoid him. There was still a strong smell of alcohol in front of her. She couldn't help but frown in disgust. Xu Yaxi pulled him away from behind and pulled Qiao Mo out. "Let's go home."

"Where are they?"

Xu Yaxi didn't feel any pity for her colleagues who were lying on the floor. She only knew that if they stayed here any longer, they might get into trouble. They were all men anyway. Nothing would happen to them.

She pulled Qiao Mo away without looking back. "I called the KTV waiter to send them to the car."

When they reached the door, Qiao Mo saw her energetically hailing a taxi. He asked in confusion, "Xixi, aren't you drunk?"

"Huh?"

Xu Yaxi blinked and said, "I'm like this when I'm drunk. When I'm drunk, I lie down for a while and then go to the bathroom."

Qiao Mo always fell asleep when he was drunk. People had different physiques, so he believed her.

After sending Xu Yaxi home, Qiao Mo went home and fell asleep on the bed.

This was the first time she fell asleep since the cold war with Gu Qingsheng.
