Chapter 105 Can You Pick Up The Airport?
After the company's turmoil passed, the two returned to their previous peaceful lives.
Gu Haoxing took Tao An to and from get off work every day, and after eating in the rental house, he didn't leave until almost midnight.
Although the two did not reconcile, Gu Haoxing is already very satisfied in this state.
He felt that sooner or later, Tao An would agree to get back together with him.
Although this possibility seems far away, there is hope and hope.
This day, Gu Haoxing came to Tao An's house for dinner as usual, and when he was helping him wash the dishes in the kitchen, Gu Haoxing suddenly mentioned his business trip.
Gu Haoxing observed the expression on Tao An's face, "I'm going on a business trip for a few days, so I may not be able to pick you up to and from get off work."
Tao An paused while washing the dishes, then turned to look at Gu Haoxing, "Business trip?"
Gu Haoxing explained patiently, "There is a problem with a business, and I need to go there to solve it myself, and it may take a week to come back."
When the two were together before, Gu Haoxing often traveled on business because of work. Tao An was used to it, and continued to wash the dishes with his head down, "Work, it's important, I can take the bus by myself."
Gu Haoxing felt uneasy after thinking about it, "Otherwise, I'll let Xiao Jiang pick you up these few days?"
Tao An's impression of Xiao Jiang was still at the worst stage before. He shook his head and said with some resistance: "No need, I can do it myself."
Tao An insisted on going to work by himself, so Gu Haoxing had no choice but to compromise. Anyway, Fang Peiyu was taking care of the company, so nothing would happen.
After dinner, Gu Haoxing went back early because he had to pack up his business trip.
Before leaving, Gu Haoxing stood at the door, holding Tao An's hand reluctantly, "Call me if you need anything, and I'll ask Xiao Jiang to come and deal with it."
Seeing that he seemed to be away for a long time, Tao An couldn't help but smiled, "It's only seven days, I can handle it by myself."
Gu Haoxing looked at Tao An's fair side face under the light, and quickly kissed Tao An on the face. When Tao An was in a daze, he had already run away without a trace.
Tao An came back to his senses dully, touched the place where Gu Haoxing had kissed with his fingertips, his heart trembled a little.
The next morning, Tao An went out to work. When he came downstairs, he didn't see Gu Haoxing's car, so he was stunned for a moment.
After reacting for a while, Tao An remembered that Gu Haoxing had gone on a business trip today.
He couldn't tell what it was like, and walked to the bus stop, just as a bus was coming, Tao An followed the crowd and got on the bus.
The bus is full of people, surrounded by strange faces, no loud music, and no familiar voices.
When Gu Haoxing came to pick up Tao An to and from get off work, he often took the initiative to talk to Tao An. Now that Gu Haoxing was not around, Tao An was not used to it for a while.
No wonder the book says that getting used to is a bad thing. I know that I shouldn't always rely on Gu Haoxing, but as the days go by, people who have been by my side suddenly leave, and I feel empty in my heart.
When Tao An came to the company, a colleague happened to take the same bus with him, and joked, "Tao An, didn't your husband send you to work today?"
Hearing the word "husband", Tao An's face was a little hot, but Gu Haoxing said not to tell outsiders about their divorce, worried that it would affect Tao An's work, he explained: "He is on a business trip."
Colleagues did not suspect him, and followed Tao An to the office.
Since Gu Haoxing came out that day, his colleagues' attitude towards Tao An has changed 180 degrees. No one targeted him anymore, but they took the initiative to make friends with Tao An.
Tao An greeted several colleagues, and just put down his bag to get ready for work, when the phone in his pocket vibrated suddenly.
He quickly took out his mobile phone, and Gu Haoxing sent him a text message: I'm getting on the plane.
Tao An hesitated for a few seconds before replying: Be careful.
Gu Haoxing replied almost instantly: I will, don't worry, take good care of yourself and your children these few days, and call me if you have anything to do.
Tao An looked at the text message and didn't know how to reply. He put down his phone, collected his emotions and started working.
After working all day, Tao An dragged his exhausted body back home from work. He forgot that Gu Haoxing didn't come to eat, and he made a meal for two of them. By the time he realized it, he had cooked several dishes.
Annoyed that he had a bad memory, Tao An packed the leftovers into an insulated box, intending to save them and bring them to the company to eat tomorrow.
After all this work, it was almost morning.
Tao An came out of the bathroom after taking a shower, and when he was about to go to bed, his cell phone rang suddenly.
As soon as Tao An saw that it was Gu Haoxing calling, he picked up the video call without thinking.
Gu Haoxing's handsome face appeared on the other side of the screen, "Tao An, are you asleep?"
Tao An said softly, "Not yet."
Gu Haoxing said happily, "I thought you were asleep and wouldn't answer my video call."
Seeing that Gu Haoxing was wearing a suit, Tao An wondered, "Did you just arrive?"
Gu Haoxing picked up the water glass on the table and took a few sips of water, "No, it's already noon, but I went to meet a client as soon as I got off the plane, and I just returned to the hotel."
Tao An clearly saw the bloodshot eyes in Gu Haoxing's eyes through the lens, and said hesitantly, "Then you, go to rest earlier."
Gu Haoxing lay down on the bed, keeping his eyes on Tao An's face in the camera, and said softly, "I don't want to rest yet, I want to chat with you for a while."
It was a chat, but it was Gu Haoxing who had nothing to say every time. In fact, Tao An had a lot to say to him before, but Gu Haoxing never listened patiently, and Tao An became taciturn over time.
Sure enough, as soon as these words were spoken, Tao An fell into silence again, and the two of them looked at each other through the mobile phone, speechless.
Gu Haoxing was also used to Tao An's silent look, so he took the initiative to say something: "When I went out today, I found some local specialties here, and I will bring you a souvenir back when the time comes."
Colleagues in Tao An's company have also bought souvenirs, and they heard that the prices are not cheap, and when they heard that Gu Haoxing wanted to bring him souvenirs, they hurriedly said, "Don't waste the money."
Gu Haoxing said with a smile: "How can I call the things I bought for you expensive?"
Tao An knew that even if he didn't agree, Gu Haoxing would still buy it in the end, so he didn't argue with him about it anymore, and the two chatted without saying a word.
After chatting until almost midnight, Gu Haoxing reluctantly hung up the phone.
In the next few days, Gu Haoxing called Tao An whenever he had time, and told him what happened there.
For example, today a certain boss was allergic to seafood and was sent to the hospital on all fours, and a certain beer belly boss bought poor-quality street pants, but when he sat down, a hole was accidentally opened in his buttocks, revealing the polka-dot underwear inside.
Tao An couldn't help being amused.
Seeing Tao An's smile, Gu Haoxing seemed to have dispelled all the fatigue of the whole day. He had forgotten how long it had been since he had seen Tao An smile like this, and he felt as if he had been in a lifetime.
Gu Haoxing's throat was a little dry. He stared firmly at Tao An's face on the other side of the screen, and suddenly asked, "Tao An, do you miss me?"
Tao An froze for a moment, pursed his lips slightly, and suddenly fell silent.
Gu Hao regretted it as soon as he spoke the jargon. Tao An didn't hate that he should burn incense and worship Buddha, let alone miss him such a daydreaming thing.
Maybe Tao An still felt relaxed after he left the country, and he was glad that no one was begging for him anymore.
Gu Haoxing laughed at himself before Tao An answered him, "I'm just kidding, why would you miss me."
Tao An suddenly said, "I want to."
Gu Haoxing's body froze, and he looked at Tao An in disbelief, his pupils shrank slightly, "What did you say?"
Tao An raised his head and glanced at Gu Haoxing, his voice was barely audible: "Come back soon, I'll cook for you."
Gu Haoxing's breathing became heavy, and the hands holding the mobile phone trembled. There was joy in his eyes, and he swallowed hard, "I'll go back the day after tomorrow, and then I'll go to your house for dinner."
Tao An nodded and whispered, "Okay."
As soon as Tao An showed a good face, Gu Haoxing couldn't control his aggressive behavior: "Tao An, can you come to pick up the plane on the day I go back?"
His eyes were too sincere, and Tao An didn't know how to refuse for a while, so he nodded.
Gu Haoxing picks him up to and from get off work every day, so he should pick up Gu Haoxing once.
Gu Haoxing did not expect that Tao An would really agree, and said in disbelief, "Really?"
Tao An nodded again, "Really."
The smile on Gu Haoxing's face was almost uncontrollable, he held the phone tightly and said, "Then I'll send you the timetable when the time comes."
Tao An hummed lightly.
The two talked until midnight that night, Tao An was so sleepy that he yawned and fell asleep before he knew it. When he woke up, the call was over.
In the blink of an eye, when Gu Haoxing came back, Tao An took a taxi to the airport during his lunch break.
This was his first time to pick up the plane, and he only found out after asking the staff that he had to wait for someone at the airport exit.
When Tao An came to the exit of the airport, the people who picked him up were beyond his imagination. Many young girls gathered together, as if they were waiting for a celebrity to appear.
The female high school student next to her was holding a huge pick-up sign with a few big characters written on it with a highlighter. Seeing Tao An appear, the female high school student said familiarly, "Are you here to wait for our brother, too?"
Tao An shook his head blankly, "No, no, I'm here to pick up my...friend."
The female high school student let out a sigh of disappointment, and said kindly: "There are a lot of people coming to pick up the plane today, and your friends may not see you when they come out. You'd better get some eye-catching reminders."
The female high school student patiently taught Tao An how to operate it. It took most of the day, and Tao An finally made Gu Haoxing's name on the screen, exuding dazzling fluorescence.
Following the example of the female high school student next to her, Tao An raised her phone high, hoping that Gu Haoxing would be able to see him at the first sight when he came out.
A little bit of time passed, and no one came out at the pick-up port.
Tao An looked at his watch, 10 minutes had passed since the time Gu Haoxing said.
Just when Tao An wanted to ask the staff what was going on, there was a sudden scream from the side, and then there was a violent commotion in the crowd, and someone said in a crying voice: "The plane has an accident!"
