Chapter 167 Men can clearly distinguish between sex and love
At noon, when He Bin delivered the ordered meal to his desk, Gu Jingzhou paused and then instructed, "Order two bouquets of flowers for me this afternoon."
"Yes, Mr. Gu, what flowers would you like to order?"
"A bouquet of pink tulips, a bouquet of... lilies."
"Okay, Mr. Gu, I'll order it for you shortly. Um, Mr. Gu, do you need any cards to go on top of these two bouquets?"
He Bin was a little curious. Why did the president order two bouquets of flowers at once?
He asked the latter sentence deliberately in a probing manner, hoping to extract some information from it.
However, Gu Jingzhou did not satisfy his gossipy heart. He replied calmly: "No need, just send the flowers over when the time comes and put them in my car."
"Yes, Mr. Gu, I understand."
In the afternoon, the florist delivered the flowers.
He Bin put them all on the passenger seat of Gu Jingzhou's car.
In the evening, when he went to Ye's to pick up Ye Zisan, Gu Jingzhou took out the bouquet of pink tulips from the passenger seat, held it and stood at the door of the Ye's building waiting for her.
As soon as Ye Zisan walked out of the door, she saw her husband waiting for her with a bouquet of pink flowers, and her mood immediately became as bright as a flower.
"Why did you buy flowers again?"
"You like flowers, so I bought them."
"Yes, I like it, thank you. This pink bouquet is also very beautiful." Ye Zisan happily held the flowers in her hands.
"As long as you like it, let's go."
"it is good."
Gu Jingzhou gently put his arm around Ye Zisan, took the set of skin care products she had bought for Su Xiaoxiao, and the two got into the car together.
As soon as she got in the car, Ye Zisan discovered that there was also a bouquet of flowers on the passenger seat.
And it was a bunch of lilies as pure white and fresh as a jade girl.
This bouquet of lilies is not as beautiful and graceful as the bouquet of pink tulips in her hand, but such flowers symbolize purity.
It is a flower that will never suit her.
Ye Zisan's eyes suddenly dimmed, and she felt that the tulip in her hand no longer smelled fragrant at all.
Gu Jingzhou knew that Ye Zisan might be a little unhappy.
Then he explained, "I bought that bouquet by the way. After all, she is nominally the daughter of the Gu family. She is pregnant, so I should show some appreciation."
"Well," Ye Zishan pulled the corner of her lips slightly, restraining her little emotion, "You are Xiaoxiao's elder brother, so you should show some appreciation. That bouquet of lilies suits her very well."
"Haha, okay, let's not talk about this. Did everything go well at the company today?" Gu Jingzhou's eyes flashed slightly. He didn't want to talk about Su Xiaoxiao in front of Ye Zisan, so he immediately changed the subject.
"Fortunately, there are no particularly difficult problems."
"That's good. If you encounter any difficult problems in the company, be sure to tell me in time and I will work with you to find a solution."
"Yeah, I know, thank you."
Ye Zisan leaned lightly on Gu Jingzhou's shoulder.
Gu Jingzhou then reached out and gently embraced her thin shoulders.
After managing Ye's for so many years, Ye Zisan has become accustomed to all problems and tries to find solutions on her own.
But when she heard Gu Jingzhou say this, she suddenly felt as if she had found someone to rely on, and the slight unhappiness she had just felt because of the bouquet of lilies disappeared.
Xiao Zhao saw in the rearview mirror that the couple was now very close, and he was also very happy.
He thought that the little cleverness he showed yesterday seemed to have played a catalytic role.
When they got home, Su Xiaoxiao and Ji Xingyuan had just arrived and were already sitting in the living room chatting with Gu Bodao and Lin Jiahui.
Gu Jingzhou was holding the bouquet of lilies in his hand, and Ye Zisan was carrying a set of skin care products she had bought.
The two walked towards them arm in arm.
As Gu Jingzhou walked over, his eyes were always looking at Su Xiaoxiao indifferently.
Today she wore a light-colored long skirt made of soft and slightly loose fabric, with a thin cardigan on the outside. The style was both sweet and intellectual.
It makes her look soft, lazy, youthful, cute, elegant and intellectual.
These different temperaments can be blended together in her without any disobedience.
She also looked quite healthy, with her cheeks, as delicate and white as a porcelain doll, having a beautiful blush.
When she raised her eyes to look at him and Ye Zisan, her clear and moving phoenix eyes seemed to be stunned for a moment.
Although it was only a moment, Gu Jingzhou still captured it keenly.
He couldn't help but wonder if she was surprised to see him and Ye Zisan walking in arm in arm so intimately, or if she felt a little concerned and lost?
He secretly hoped that it would be great if it was the latter.
This at least shows that she still cares about him in her heart.
After everyone exchanged greetings, Gu Jingzhou suppressed the complex emotions in his heart and handed the lily in his hand to Su Xiaoxiao.
"This is for you, congratulations."
"Thank you, brother." Su Xiaoxiao stood up and took the lilies from Gu Jingzhou's hand gently and generously.
"Xiaoxiao, this is a set of pure herbal skin care products suitable for pregnant women. I hope you can get used to it."
"Thank you, sister-in-law. You are so thoughtful!"
"Haha, we're a family, that's what we should do."
After chatting politely in the hall for a while, everyone went to the dining room to eat.
Ji Xingyuan sat next to Su Xiaoxiao and was very considerate to her.
He peeled the shrimp for her, removed the bones from the fish for her, served the soup for her, and placed tissues by her side.
Su Xiaoxiao couldn't hide her happiness, "Thank you, husband, I can do it myself."
"You are now a national treasure. If your husband doesn't take good care of you now, then when will he take care of you?"
Listening silently to the couple's low conversation, Gu Jingzhou kept his head down and ate, but he couldn't help but occasionally glance at Su Xiaoxiao who was sitting opposite him.
Ye Zisan was also eating silently, but her peripheral vision was keeping an eye on Gu Jingzhou.
She could see that he still cared about Su Xiaoxiao.
And what she cared about most was him as her husband, and no longer Ji Xingyuan, whom she had secretly loved for many years.
This may be the difference between men and women.
Men can clearly distinguish between sex and love.
Even if he willingly sleeps with a woman, the one he cares about most and feels most special about is still the woman he lost or cannot get.
As for women, the balance in their hearts will easily shift to whoever they are willing to sleep with.
Sex and love will unconsciously become one.
Perhaps not all men and women in the world are like this.
But Ye Zisan knew that she was such a woman.
And Gu Jingzhou at this stage may also be such a man.
What's more, the woman he was thinking about was indeed someone who even a person of the same sex would feel favorable towards, and not feel the slightest bit of disgust at all.
A woman with a stunning appearance and a career as pure and kind as her personality, like an angel.
No, describing her as a girl is more appropriate for her.
Perhaps because she is still young, although she got married first and is already pregnant, her girlish temperament is more obvious.
And she is already a mature woman who has experienced many vicissitudes of life.
Silently gazing at Su Xiaoxiao's pretty and bright face, Ye Zisan once again saw the differences and gaps between them.
She also understood better why Gu Jingzhou still cared so much about her ex.
Her mood couldn't help but become gloomy.
Lin Jiahui was only concerned about the happy events at home and was in a very happy mood.
He didn't realize that his son and daughter-in-law had their own concerns, and felt secretly disappointed.
"Oh, Xiaoxiao, seeing you and Xiaoji so affectionate makes Mom so happy. From now on, you have to come home for dinner more often, okay?"
"Okay, I understand, Mom. We will come back often when we have time."
Perhaps it is because she became Mrs. Ji, had a strong in-law family, and received unconditional love from her husband.
Also, I am no longer a novice doctor entering the workplace, and my work is becoming more and more handy.
Su Xiaoxiao now has no sense of inferiority in front of the Gu family.
"Jingzhou, Zishan, look, Xiaoxiao is a few years younger than you, and she's about to become a mother. You two should hurry up and try to get pregnant this year too. Then, our family will have double happiness, what a joy!"
"Bodao, don't you think so?"
"Yes, Jingzhou, Zishan, your mother is right. You two should not only focus on company matters, but also make having children your top priority."
Gu Jingzhou raised his head and glanced at Su Xiaoxiao with a slight movement in his eyes.
Then she turned to look at her parents and said, "Dad, Mom, don't worry. This year, Zishan and I will have a child."
"Really? That's great!" Lin Jiahui was immediately very happy.
Gu Bodao also looked comforted. It seemed that his son and Ye Zisan had made some progress.
When Ye Zisan heard what Gu Jingzhou said, her gloomy mood suddenly became brighter.
She and Gu Jingzhou looked at each other, and both smiled gently.
Although Gu Jingzhou's smile did not reach his eyes, she was satisfied that they had such a tacit understanding and he could make such a promise to her in front of his parents.
"Mr. Gu, Mr. Ye, Xiaoxiao and I would like to congratulate you in advance."
"Thank you, Mr. Ji."
The four of them sat facing each other, clinking their glasses, and the atmosphere seemed quite harmonious.
However, Su Xiaoxiao could still feel Gu Jingzhou's somewhat burning gaze on her. She could only try her best to ignore it and continue to have a sweet meal with Ji Xingyuan.
