It was soon evening, and Wang Yan arrived at the restaurant he had agreed to meet with Gu Jia early. It would be so embarrassing to be the host and keep the guests waiting.
Wang Yan told the service staff that they were two men, one woman and a child, and asked them to take care of the arrangements. Leave this kind of thing to professionals, who will definitely make the arrangements clear for you.
After waiting for a while, Gu Jia and her family of three arrived.
Wang Yan was sitting in the private room. When he saw the three people come in, he stood up to greet them and said, "Mr. Xu, nice to meet you again. We'll have a good chat later."
"No problem, no problem. Mr. Wang, please don't be so polite. My name is Xu Huanshan, just call me Huanshan."
Wang Yan said, "Haha, fine, then everyone please feel free to be polite. My name is Wang Yan, so just call me by my name."
Then he looked at Gu Jia and said, "Come on, Gu Jia, Zi Yan should come and sit down."
Wang Yan asked the waiter to prepare some tea. Wang Yan had instructed him to start serving the dishes as soon as he saw the three people come in.
After everyone was seated, Wang Yan said, "I heard this restaurant is pretty good. It has a pretty good reputation."
"This is my first time here, so I'll let them take care of the arrangements. Please don't pick on me."
Xu Huanshan said, "Wang Yan, you are too polite. Why would we choose you? It doesn't matter whether you are good or not. The main thing is that we are all making friends."
Gu Jia was taking care of the child and also replied to him.
The food was served at a decent speed. We were just having tea and chatting when the food arrived.
How can there be food without wine? This table of Chinese food must be paired with white wine, otherwise the food will always taste a little bit lacking.
Wang Yan prepared two bottles of Wuliangye. He didn't use a small wine cup, as that was too small and boring. He used a tall glass instead. He poured wine for Xu Huanshan and himself. He didn't want to pour wine for Gu Jia, after all, she had children to take care of. Unexpectedly, Gu Jia was also a person of the moment, and she insisted on drinking a glass. Wang Yan pretended to persuade her and gave her one less glass.
"Come, let me raise a glass. Let's celebrate our gathering together today and our acquaintance."
Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan raised their glasses, clinked them together, and drank them all in one gulp.
"Eat some food, eat some food, how about trying it?"
Wang Yan greeted them warmly.
After eating for a while, everyone chatted for a while. After clinking glasses with Xu Huanshan, Wang Yan asked, "I don't know what you do?"
Xu Huanshan replied: "My family makes fireworks, and we take on various celebrations and so on. Gu Jia is a full-time wife, who takes care of Zi Yan at home."
"Yeah, I understand. I'll see if any of my friends need fireworks or something and introduce them to you."
After hearing what Wang Yan said, the couple thanked him repeatedly, although they didn't know whether it was true or not.
Gu Jia, who was taking care of the children while they were eating, asked, "Wang Yan, I heard from the property management staff that you work in finance? What field specifically?"
Gu Jia still had some idea, so she mentioned to the property staff that Wang Yan worked in finance.
Buildings like Grand Hyatt have very strict management. The property staff are talkative, and if Wang Yan gets angry, those troublemakers will be in trouble.
Wang Yan guessed that it might be those people who said it at the time, and she later asked Zhong Xiaoqin about it.
"Nothing much, just some stock trading or something. If you have any questions about that, you can come to me."
Wang Yan didn't say anything about investing money. It is a taboo to talk about deep things with someone you just met. Talking about that makes him sound like a big liar, which is not good.
He has no intention of helping Gu Jia now.
This story world is like the real world to Wang Yan. The people here are flesh and blood, and have their own ideas.
The conflict between Gu Jia and Xu Huanshan is caused by Gu Jia's strong personality on the one hand and some things they experienced after moving to Junyue Mansion on the other.
If everything goes smoothly for Gu Jia and they become more and more loving, then there will be no need for him, Old Wang.
No matter what, he has to wait until Xu Huanshan gets to know Lin Youyou before he can take any action.
Now his main task is to lick her secretly and gain a foothold in Gu Jia's heart.
Therefore, Wang Yan was not at all polite during the dinner. He spoke wittily and livened up the atmosphere. There was no awkwardness at all, as is often the case when people first meet and chat.
How could Xu Huanshan's alcohol tolerance compare to Wang Yan's? After half a catty of wine, he was obviously a little drunk. Under Wang Yan's deliberate guidance, Xu Huanshan and him were arm in arm and treated each other like brothers.
At the same time, he did not forget his main target and did not neglect Gu Jia at all.
He also showed extreme affection for Xu Ziyan and gave him the right to have an equal dialogue. As a child, his sense of existence was relatively low, so he especially wanted to show off and be recognized.
Children are very sensitive, and Xu Ziyan also felt the difference in Wang Yan. That guy called him Uncle Wang all the time, and was particularly affectionate.
If you want to get close to a mother who loves her son dearly, then starting with her child is definitely the most effective way. Wang Yan promised that when he got home, Xu Ziyan would definitely talk about him no matter what.
Gu Jia clearly felt Xu Ziyan's happiness. Apart from anything else, it was usually difficult for him to eat, but now he could even eat two bowls of rice.
Looking at the two people arm in arm and talking nonsense, Gu Jia clearly felt the huge gap between Xu Huanshan and Wang Yan.
She had never met anyone like Wang Yan in her life.
Despite his ordinary appearance, he has a pair of eyes that speak volumes. He always stands tall and straight, and his words are always refreshing. Sometimes, his casual remarks are always thought-provoking. Sometimes, a casual glance at him is like seeing a crouching tiger, but upon closer inspection, everything seems normal, giving him a mysterious feeling.
In comparison, Xu Huanshan is screwed.
He can't control his emotions, and sometimes, in Gu Jia's eyes, he seems like a child. He's stubborn and obstinate. He has a naive view of the world, doesn't understand human nature, and doesn't understand events.
Being with Xu Huanshan is mostly about her being compatible with others.
"It would be great if Huanshan was like Wang Yan."
She unassumingly combined the two people into her ideal Xu Huanshan.
As I thought about it, I became stunned.
Xu Ziyan was eating the food in big mouthfuls. He didn't hear Gu Jia speak for a long time. He nudged Gu Jia and said, "Mom, what's wrong with you? Why aren't you talking?"
Xu Ziyan's action woke up Gu Jia, who was distracted and daydreaming. She saw Xu Huanshan and Wang Yan, who heard the noise, looking at her at the same time.
Facing Wang Yan's gaze, Gu Jia recalled her previous wild thoughts and felt her face flush. However, she had also drunk a little, so no one else could tell.
She explained, "It's okay, I was just distracted just now." After saying that, she glanced at Wang Yan and continued to coax the child.
Looking at the fruit of her love eating the food with big mouthfuls, she recalled the sweet past with Xu Huanshan.
"No matter what he is like, he is the person I love most in my life. I love him for who he is."
Gu Jia strengthened herself and encouraged herself.
But she also unconsciously had a very good impression of this humorous, well-spoken, self-disciplined and extremely intelligent man, and her favorability towards him soared.
Wang Yan noticed the look Gu Jia gave him after she finished speaking, and he knew what was going on. As the saying goes, it's not a problem if you don't know the goods, it's a problem if you compare them. The result is obvious: who can compare him, Old Wang?
The meal lasted several hours, and Wang Yan and Xu Huanshan were already drunk.
Wang Yan couldn't say he was fine, but he was still sober and pretended to be drunk. A normal person would be drunk if he drank two kilograms, so Gu Jia didn't suspect he was pretending to be drunk.
The difference is that Xu Huanshan is really screwed. Wang Yan forced him to drink half a pound of wine, which was only 700 grams. He was unconscious. Wang Yan drank more than Xu Huanshan. Was it to persuade him to drink? It was mainly a suicide attack. He drank about two pounds.
The two men put their arms around each other's shoulders, mumbling nonsense, and walked out with one foot deep and one foot shallow, staggering every three steps.
This is a tough time for Gu Jia. Not only does she have to take care of the child, but she also has to take care of Xu Huanshan and Wang Yan.
Of course, the main person to take care of is Xu Huanshan, and Wang Yan is left to the care of the waiter.
Since they both lived in Grand Hyatt, Gu Jia couldn't let Wang Yan go back alone. She found a designated driver to put the two drunk people in the back seat, and she took Xu Ziyan to the passenger seat and returned to Grand Hyatt together.
When the property staff on duty saw Gu Jia with two drunks and a child, they very considerately sent two people to support Wang Yan and Xu Huanshan.
Gu Jia first sent Xu Huanshan and the child home, leaving them to be cared for by a nanny. She then followed the property management to take Wang Yan to the 18th floor, as she was worried about him. It was simply because if anything happened to Wang Yan, they would definitely be held responsible, which would be terrible. Furthermore, she had a good impression of this new friend.
Arriving on the 18th floor with the property management, she was stunned by the smart lock on the main door. Even though it had a keyhole, it was so damn smart, who would carry a key when leaving the house?
Ask the property staff nearby if there is any solution.
The property management staff said that there was nothing they could do and they could only wait for Wang Yan to wake up or find a locksmith.
Gu Jia had no other choice but to let the property management staff go back first. She supported Wang Yan and asked him what the password was.
Lao Wang was such a cunning man. Seeing that they were alone, he was still drunk. He couldn't let this opportunity slip away. He smacked his lips and collapsed, stumbling backwards against the wall. He leaned against the wall and slid down.
Gu Jia couldn't just watch Wang Yan lie on the ground, so she walked over and held Wang Yan up with great effort.
With someone to rely on, Wang Yan put his arm around Gu Jia's shoulders and leaned against the wall to stop his body from sliding down.
Feeling the warmth of Wang Yan's hand on her shoulder, his weight pressing against her, and the muscles pressed against her body, Gu Jia shuddered and her body stiffened.
After she adjusted herself for a while, she patted Wang Yan and said, "Wang Yan, wake up. We're home."
"Wake up, Wang Yan, we're home. Open the door."
Wang Yan raised his head in confusion, looked at Gu Jia, and then looked at the door. Letting go of Gu Jia, he staggered to his feet, walked to the door, and wanted to enter the password to open the door.
Wang Yan pressed the keys for a long time, but either he pressed the wrong key or pressed keys outside the password area.
Gu Jia just stood there looking at him anxiously, which made her very worried.
She stepped forward, supported Wang Yan, and coaxed him, "Wang Yan, tell me the password and I'll help you open it."
Hearing this, Wang Yan turned his head and looked at Gu Jia with a confused look in his eyes: "Who are you?"
Without waiting for Gu Jia to answer, he immediately calmed down, rubbed his eyes, and then suddenly realized, and said incoherently: "Yeah, Gu Jia."
After a pause, he said, "You are here at a good time. Please help me check the door of my house. He always hides from me and won't let me in." He swayed his body while speaking.
Gu Jia was so amused by Wang Yan's childish words that she couldn't help but ask again: "What's the password? Tell me and I'll help you open it."
Wang Yan said a string of numbers.
Gu Jia helped Wang Yan to the other side so that he would not block the door.
After entering the password to open the door, I looked at Wang Yan again. He was leaning against the wall with his head drooping.
Shaking her head helplessly, Gu Jia stepped forward, put one of Wang Yan's arms around her shoulders, and helped him into the house with great effort.
It can be seen that everything is fine after the first time. At the beginning, she still held Wang Yan's arm. After Wang Yan adjusted it, she naturally put it on her own.
Walking into the house, Gu Jia was shocked by what she saw.
After all, few people had the brains to leave only two rooms and demolish the rest except the kitchen. The area of more than 200 square meters was flat and very spacious.
It is also equipped with unpretentious, unique, distinctive yet natural and harmonious decoration, calligraphy and paintings on the wall, ornaments on the partitions, and some interior landscapes.
It has a unique impact.
Gu Jia was stunned.
She had never seen or thought of this kind of decoration style before. This made her understand Wang Yan a little better.
The bedroom is easy to find. There are only two rooms, one is a study and the other is a bedroom.
He helped Wang Yan to the bedroom and wanted to put him on the bed.
Wang Yan took the opportunity to pull Gu Jia down. Gu Jia cried out "Ah!" and fell on top of him.
Lying on Wang Yan's chest, she heard Wang Yan's strong heartbeat, felt the sharp edges of his body muscles, and saw the face so close to her. She felt her body go a little weak.
After lying down for a while and taking a break, he stood up by supporting himself with Wang Yan's strong chest.
She went to the kitchen to get a glass of water, brought it over and fed it to Wang Yan. She then worked hard to straighten Wang Yan's position, let him lie down, and covered him with a quilt.
She didn't undress Wang Yan. As someone's wife, it was obviously inappropriate to do so. Besides, her heart was filled with her husband and son, so she couldn't do anything to betray them.
Gu Jia walked around Wang Yan's house and took a rough look at the decoration layout. She was really curious.
After reading it, she went to the bedroom again and looked at the sleeping Wang Yan by the bed for a while, not knowing what she was thinking.
After waking up from her daze and making sure that Wang Yan was fine, Gu Jia turned around and left.
She has to go back to take care of her husband and son.
Hearing the door closing, Wang Yan opened his eyes and stood up.
I walked to the balcony, lit a cigarette, looked at the night view outside, and thought about what would happen tonight.
It must be said that he admires his own acting skills very much, and his performance as Jiu Mengzi is really realistic.
This was largely due to his experience. Before he had the system, his body wasn't what it is now. Whenever he drank heavily, he'd be like a calf, so he had a deep understanding of that state. He had a firm grasp of what a drunkard was like. Talking too much would only bring tears, and this was just life.
Judging from the ambiguity just now, I don't know about other things, but there is definitely no problem with this part of the body. Wang Yan clearly felt Gu Jia's trembling when she lay on his chest, and the faint excitement?
Wang Yan guaranteed that Gu Jia would not be able to sleep well today. What's wrong with old women not being lustful?
This has established Wang Yan's reputation in Gu Jia's heart. He can just show up in front of her more often in the future.
Xu Huanshan was stunned by Wang Yan's coaxing, and he was still calling him brother. He didn't know that Wang Yan had a clear goal from the beginning to the end, that is, to be the old Wang, to love young women, and to seduce his wife.
In other words, Wang Yan still has some principles and is afraid of affecting future developments. If Wang Yan had taken the opportunity just now and gone straight for it, he would have gone for it, and Gu Jia would have just put up a symbolic struggle.
After finishing a cigarette, Wang Yan stopped thinking about useless things, drank a glass of water, and went back to bed to sleep.
Gu Jia returned home.
Xu Ziyan had already fallen asleep. Children tend to get sleepy easily. If he hadn't been sensible and didn't want to cause trouble for Gu Jia, he would have fallen asleep in the hotel.
Xu Huanshan was being taken care of by a nanny. He had just vomited and was drunk and talking nonsense.
After letting the nanny go to bed, Gu Jia took off Xu Huanshan's clothes, got a wet towel and wiped his body to sober him up.
After some trouble, Xu Huanshan was put to bed and the lights were turned off to sleep.
It was just as Wang Yan expected.
Listening to the snoring next to her, Gu Jia was so upset thinking about what happened tonight that she couldn't sleep. She was so restless that she couldn't calm down.
Gu Jia simply stopped thinking about matters between men and women and began to think about Wang Yan.
People are afraid of thinking too much. Once he thinks about it, he will unconsciously compare himself with Xu Huanshan.
There is no need to imagine the result. The more she compared, the more she felt that Xu Huanshan was a complete loser. He was inferior to her in every way.
Women tend to have wild thoughts. Gu Jia felt that Xu Huanshan had problems everywhere. Many of the usual minor problems began to be magnified, and some of the quarrels started to be brought up. The more she thought about it, the more she felt that Xu Huanshan was unbearable.
Fortunately, Gu Jia is a strong woman and is compatible with Xu Huanshan.
Gu Jia got up and took a cold shower, suppressing the unrest in her heart. It was no use trying to think rationally, and after tossing and turning for a long time, she finally fell asleep.
And this is marriage.
