When You’re Gone

In late May, Gu Hansheng took Liang Shu to Shengdun City.

This stay is ten days.

Three days ago, Gu Hansheng had been busy with Shi Qing from morning to night, and Liang Shu knew that the branch here had a problem.

On the fourth day, Gu Hansheng was probably still afraid of leaving Liang Shu in the cold, so during the day, Shi Qing brought work to the villa.

The jet lag in Liang Shu has also reversed these days.

As usual, she slept into the morning and got up slowly.

The weather outside was a bit bad, the sky was dark and there were signs of rain.

The villa was very quiet. Liang Shu thought that she was the only one in the entire villa today as usual. After washing, she wrapped a cardigan sweater on the dark thin sling and went downstairs with slippers.

A thick curly long black hair was randomly draped over his shoulders, faintly revealing a slender and white neck and a beautifully shaped collarbone.

Although the weather outside is a bit bad, Liang Shu's pace is brisk.

She lowered her head and fingers, holding on to the handrail, slowly walking down the stairs, her thoughts were a little empty, so she didn't notice the sound coming from the living room.

It seems that this is a plot that will appear in all romantic novels.

The bewildered hostess came downstairs in her pajamas and just bumped into the host talking with someone in the living room.

There were two steps left to the end, Liang Shu supported the handrail with one hand, his eyes raised naturally.

After a few meters of air, he looked at the man sitting on the main seat on the sofa area.

Of course, in addition to Gu Hansheng, the others sitting on the sofa also looked towards the stairs.

The Western-style faces with profound facial features are very strange to Yu Liangshu.

She stood still and looked down at her clothes. Compared with the group of men in suits and shoes, she looked a little more casual and frivolous, but there was nothing wrong with it.

Gu Hansheng was the first to react.

But Shi Qing was the first to speak.

When Shi Qing saw Liang Shu, he dropped the papers and got up from the sofa, and respectfully nodded at Liang Shu: "Mrs."

The executives of the Washington branch didn't understand the meaning of the word "taitai", but the tone and attitude were extremely respectful when they saw it, so they seemed to understand a little too.

The heated discussion was interrupted by the sudden appearance of Liang Shu.

With a smile on his mouth, Gu Hansheng got up from the single sofa and walked towards Liang Shu a few steps.

Liang Shu followed down the stairs.

Until he grasped his own hand, Liang Shu raised his eyebrows, tilted his eyes slightly, and looked over there, "Did I disturb you?"

Gu Hansheng led her to the sofa area, the smile on the corners of her mouth widened, "As expected, is it possible that I brought my work to the house?"

Liang Shu seriously pondered this question for a while, then shook his head seriously and replied, "No wonder."

The two now have such a tacit understanding.

If it weren't for the fact that he couldn't walk away, Gu Hansheng wouldn't get stuck like this, he would just look after her.

When the two approached, all the executives of the Washington branch stood up, and someone very gentleman sorted out his tie.

Liang Shu only listened to Gu Hansheng speaking very fluent American English, holding her shoulders and introducing to everyone: "This is my wife."

Several senior executives greeted Liang Shu. Before Liang Shu responded, Gu Hansheng pressed her to the single sofa he had just sat on.

Liang Shu was very puzzled and looked up at him.

Gu Hansheng patted her shoulder comfortingly, and gently touched her earlobe with his fingers.

This is a small gesture between husband and wife.

Liang Shu looked at the documents laid out on the short table in front of him, with dense English on top, and various curves.

She studied finance at university, and if she was serious, she could barely understand what was above.

But at this moment Liang Shu had a headache, and he didn't understand what Gu Hansheng meant.

Soon, everyone saw that Gu Hansheng had moved a chair and put it next to the sofa where Liang Shu was sitting, and turned back, not knowing where he brought out a plate of washed strawberries and placed it in front of her.

Then he was on the chair next to him again, looking sideways at her, "Eat."

Liang Shu knew that several pairs of eyes were staring at her at this moment, and she was very uncomfortable.

She stretched out her hand and pulled Gu Hansheng's sleeve, and whispered, "Why are you letting me sit here? Isn't this bothering you? I'll go to the countertop balcony."

Gu Hansheng held down her hand, "It's not in the way."

He didn't have much time, so he picked up the file again after speaking and reopened the topic of the issue just discussed.

At first, Liang Shu couldn't eat unscrupulously on such occasions, until more than ten minutes passed, she found that she was completely transparent among the group of people.

People who get into work are terrible.

But it is also very fascinating.

For example, at this moment, Liang Shu stared at Gu Hansheng with a strawberry in his mouth for several minutes, and he didn't even notice it.

They speak English, which is mixed with very complicated technical terms, and their faces are serious. When they talk about disagreements, some people will even get red-faced.

This was a scene that Liang Shu had never seen before, so he was a little fascinated.

His attitude was not as lazy as he was just now. Instead, he tried to recall the little financial knowledge in his mind. With dry mouth and tongue, Liang Shu licked his lips.

Not long after, a glass of warm water appeared in front of him.

Liang Shu raised his head and smiled at Shi's narrowed eyes.

At this moment, the man sitting on the chair beside him suddenly stretched out his hand and shook her hand, and the corners of his eyebrows and eyes were hung with the tenderness that other people could hardly find.

So the two executives who were still arguing suddenly stopped fighting.

Everyone looked more or less at the fingers held together over there.

At this moment, Liang Shu couldn't help it. He drew out his hand, got up and nodded to everyone, and then left the area without looking back.

Gu Hansheng didn't stop her, but let her go.

He naturally retracted his expression, took the file again and sat on the sofa where Liang Shu had just sat, leaning forward slightly, and took a sip of the cup that Liang Shu had just used with his right hand to moisturize his throat, and continued to discuss with his subordinates. Official.

The meeting lasted until one o'clock in the afternoon local time.

Liang Shu was hungry a long time ago, and she made a plate of pasta in the kitchen herself.

There is a cluster of golden noodles in the glazed plate, and two broccoli flowers are placed next to it. The noodles look good.

She is very satisfied with her cooking this time.

In the dining room, Liang Shu sat in a chair, took a fork and rolled a few noodles into his mouth.

After chewing twice, the expression changed several degrees in the next second.

Without any hesitation, he spit out the noodles in his mouth, then threw down the fork, and wiped his mouth with a tissue with disgust, with a sad expression.

This scene happened to be seen by Gu Hansheng who walked into the restaurant.

With the sound of footsteps, Liang Shu turned and looked up at him.

The man walked in with his arms around his chest, lowered his head and stared at the food on her plate, and then said in a serious manner: "I think it looks delicious."

Liang Shu squinted his eyes, then smiled, without evasiveness, and handed the fork he had used to him, "Then you taste it?"

Gu Hansheng hooked up a chair, but only stared at her instead of picking up the fork.

Liang Shu raised his eyebrows, raised his hand and rolled a few noodles to his mouth. Gu Hansheng was satisfied this time and put the food in his mouth.

He didn't plan to have any good reactions, but the man ate the noodles directly in front of her.

"You... why don't you vomit?" She was surprised.

Gu Hansheng raised his hand and rubbed the top of her hair, "The taste is unsatisfactory, and it's not too bad."

After speaking, he got up and went into the kitchen.

Liang Shu stared at him with a suspicious look, then took his fork and rolled the noodles into his mouth, chewed it twice, just like before, it was difficult to swallow.

In the kitchen, Gu Hansheng was boiling noodles.

The hot water made a gurgling sound in the pot.

Quietly outside, it seems that people have astigmatized.

Liang Shu put on her slippers and walked outside. Shi Qing was still packing his papers. Hearing the footsteps behind him, Shi Qi turned his head back, "Mrs."

Liang Shu smiled, tightly wrapped his jacket and glanced at the kitchen, "You Mr. Gu is cooking noodles, would you like to eat some too?"

These words will be like thunder on the ground when the time comes.

She glanced at the direction of the kitchen and waved her hand hurriedly, "No way, ma'am, I still have something to do, I'll go now."

After speaking, Shi Qing quickly packed up the documents and left here.

Liang Shu sat on the single sofa with his elbows resting on the armrests, his fingers supporting his chin and looking out the floor-to-ceiling windows.

In fact, she heard it all just now.

Gu Hansheng did not avoid her when discussing matters with senior executives in Washington. During the period, she heard someone mention the Suiyuan Group.

At the beginning of the year, Huo Qiting relocated Huo's Dafei Zhouzhang back to Yucheng and established Suiyuan Group.

In late January this year, Gu Hansheng spent half a month in Shengton City. At that time, it was the branch's business that was cut off by an unknown company, lost customers, and the factory's products were unsalable.

At that time, he frequently attended various banquets, and finally turned the tide to get everything back on track.

Finally, I finally embarked on the flight back to the city on the night of New Year's Eve in the Chinese New Year.

At that time, he only solved the problem from within the company, but did not find the man behind the Huafu branch.

And now, it all seems clear together.

It's Huo's.

Liang Shu blinked, and heard Gu Hansheng calling her over there, she got up and walked into the dining room.

Gu Hansheng's cooking skills are much better than hers.

In the middle of the meal, Gu Hansheng said, "I have no plans for tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. Do you want to go somewhere?"

Liang Shu thought for a while, put down his fork, "Is this far from Newtown?"

"Want to go to Newtown?"

She nodded, "Thinking, Big Brother is here, I want to see him."

Lu Zian took Shen Lu to Newtown last year and has not returned.

Liang Shu had the final say, Shen Lu was already pregnant when they left, and it was still two to three months away from Shen Lu's expected delivery date.

Obviously, Gu Hansheng had forgotten who this eldest brother Liang Shu said was.

The man frowned slightly, "Big Brother?"

Liang Shu pursed his lips, and then faintly reminded him: "Didn't you **** me a bank card from Jiang Jiucheng? There are 500,000 in the card, do you remember?"

With that said, Gu Hansheng remembered it.

He continued to eat the food on the plate slowly, only to say, "I don't remember it, after a few seconds."

Liang Shu stopped talking for an instant.

...

It took three hours from Shengton City to Newtown City.

Liang Shu called Lu Zi'an beforehand.

Lu Zian and Shen Lu are very happy that Liang Shu is coming to visit.

At this time, neither of them knew what was happening in the country.

Lu Zian and his wife Shen Lu thought that Liang Shu came alone, but they didn't expect two people to stand outside the fence.

Of course Lu Zian knew who the man standing next to Liang Shu was. He was in the hospital and the two were recruited.

When Shen Lu saw Gu Hansheng next to Liang Shu, she couldn't say anything. She held her stomach with one hand and pulled Lu Zi'an's clothes with the other, and whispered, "Husband, why is A Shu with him?"

There is hardly anyone that Gu Hansheng knows in the upper class circles of Yucheng.

Shen Lu had also heard about him before, but at this moment, she never thought that he would stand with Liang Shu.

Next to him, her husband patted Shen Lu on the shoulder and led her to open the door.

Lu Zian gave Liang Shu a hug and said, "A Shu, I miss you very much."

Liang Shu blushed a little, not because she was blushing, but because she was a little embarrassed.

She seldom thinks of Lu Zian in China, but Lu Zian shared with her a few times about his life abroad with Shen Lu, and the two would have a few conversations. The rest of the time, there was no intersection.

This hug does not have a happy ending.

Liang Shu was still in the future and thanked Lu Zian for his longing, and a hand appeared and carried Liang Shu to the past.

Gu Hansheng held Liang Shu's finger with a subtle expression on his face, and looked at Shen Lu with a slight smile on his eyebrows, "Mr. Lu, Miss Shen, I'm bothering A Shu."

This is very interesting.

Liang Shu raised his hand and pinched his waist gently, reminding him in a low voice, "What are you doing? It's right to call Mrs. Lu."

The finger was gripped by the man. This was Gu Hansheng's small gesture to comfort her.

In the next second, Gu Hansheng looked at Shen Lu again and said, "Miss Shen, A Shu and I are struggling on the road. Can I go in first and have a bit of tea?"

Shen Lu returned to her senses, and hurriedly stepped aside, "Please come in, please come in."

From beginning to end, I never looked at Lu Zi'an.

...

As soon as he entered the house, Liang Shu sat beside Shen Lu.

The belly of more than six months is already obvious.

In the living room, Liang Shu covered Shen Lu's billowing belly with her palms, and she moved a little cautiously.

And soon, under the palm of the palm, something seemed to kick suddenly.

This feeling is very new to Liangshu.

She took away her hand like an electric shock, looked at Shen Lu, and said in surprise: "Sister-in-law, the baby seems to have kicked you."

After speaking, she continued to see the place she had touched just now, where the reaction was still there.

The tops and tops on the belly symbolize vitality.

Shen Lu smiled with maternal brilliance. She said, "At first, I was so surprised at you. It was one night when the baby kicked me off guard. I was not afraid of you laughing. That night, I was so excited with your elder brother. I didn't even fall asleep."

"At that time, I wished this kid would kick a few more times, but then there was no sound at all."

Liang Shu touched Shen Lu's belly and looked down intently, "Have you checked it? Is it a baby boy or a baby girl?"

"My brother and I are not planning to investigate. Both boys and girls are gifts from God, and we are all happy."

She nodded, "That's okay, it will be a pleasant surprise for both men and women."

Shen Lu looked at the two men talking outside the window. She turned her head to look at Liang Shu, "Are you and Mr. Gu planning to have children?"

Liang Shu was a little stunned. She raised her hand and wiped her belly, looking at the fireplace opposite, "I want it."

"A Shu, my sister-in-law is telling you the truth. I think Mr. Gu is good to you, but rich marriages are often the most untenable. When necessary, children are the most stable bridge between two people."

Liang Shu lowered his head and smiled, "Sister-in-law is too worried, I don't really care, it's Mr. Gu who wants a child, but this kind of thing has to happen."

Just a few days ago, her period had just left.

Since she got better, the two have never avoided pregnancy.

It has been several months without any movement.

Liang Shu couldn't help wondering whether something was wrong with her body.

Her body was tossed miserably in the past, but now it's starting to bounce back, so it's very likely that she won't be able to get pregnant.

She used to think that one day she wanted to give birth to a man?

...

Outside the French windows, the two married women and men do not smoke.

Gu Hansheng quit smoking because of Liang Shu, and Lu Zian quit because his wife Shen Lu was pregnant.

The man talked before, and there was no smoke or wine, and only tea was left.

So the two people sat at the garden table and chairs with a cup of tea like old cadres and talked about things.

Gu Hansheng occasionally raised his head and saw Liang Shu retracted his hands like being burned in the French windows, and then said a few words to Shen Lu vividly.

The next second was the scene where Shen Lu took her hand on her stomach.

The man's brows and eyes showed a little warmth.

Lu Zian said to the other side, "Mr. Gu is not going to have a baby with A Shu?"

Lu Zian couldn't grasp Gu Hansheng's feelings for Liang Shu. On the surface, the relationship between the two was good.

Sitting opposite each other, the man raised his hand to uncover the lid of the teacup, held up the coaster with his right hand and blew, "Of course."

For some reason, Lu Zian breathed a sigh of relief, and raised his eyebrows, "I haven't asked before, but now I have found an opportunity. Is it convenient for Mr. Gu to reveal how you and A Shu got together?"

Gu Han had a meal, and then smiled, "Ms. Lu is so gossip?"

"..."

...

Dinner is western food, steak.

The content of the food was arranged by Shen Lu.

She and Lu Zian have lived here for more than half a year, and they have become accustomed to the life here, and they are also used to Western food.

But Gu Hansheng had lived in China all year round, so he would definitely eat it too.

In fact, the person Shen Lu wants to take care of most is Liang Shu.

When Yucheng parted, Lu Zian and Shen Lu asked Liang Shu to have a Western meal.

Liang Shu was devoured at the time, as if he had escaped from a refugee camp.

So Shen Lu thought Liang Shu likes steak.

It's really time to eat.

Liang Shu was stunned when he saw the steak on the table.

Gu Hansheng's face changed slightly, but he quickly reacted. He shook Liang Shu's hand under the table.

Then he raised his hand and moved the bowl of vegetable salad in front of Liang Shu, and clamped the steak from Liang Shu's plate to his own plate. Then he looked at the two opposing people, "I forgot to inform the two of you in advance. A Shu has recently avoided being fishy. It’s okay for me to eat this steak for her."
