Chapter 70: Spring Moon in Spring (12)

Gu Beichuan had no doubt about him, and now he answered Gu Nanzhao. He didn't notice the eye contact between Lu Man and Gu Nanzhao. He lowered his head to look at Lu Man and said quietly, "I will contact you when I have time."
Gu Nanzhao led Gu Beichuan to leave first, and Lu Man didn't stay in the lobby much, so he went to the clinic. When the visit was over, she just came out of the room and saw Gu Nanzhao appearing at the staircase on the other side of the corridor.
Lu Man paused for a while, Gu Nanzhao strode towards her with long legs. When he walked in front of her, he always asked loosely, "It's done?"
"Um." Lu Man nodded.
Gu Nanzhao casually glanced around, saying naturally: "Let's go, see you off."
They walked downstairs side by side from the stairs.
After a moment of silence, Lu Man whispered, "Are you okay?"
Gu Nanzhao seemed to be absent-minded, and asked subconsciously, "What?" He took a step back, looked at the road, smiled slightly tired, "No one can do anything about the old man.
Because at this age, even a small operation is a big deal, not to mention such a disease. Lu Man took a peek at him, comforting softly: "It will be fine."
Obviously it is just a very ordinary and comforting word, but she can say it from her mouth and fall into her ears, always feeling relieved in her heart. Gu Nanzhao smiled, raised her hand and rubbed her head: "Okay."
Gu Nanzhao accompanied Lu Man to the car and watched her leave before returning to the hospital building.
Neither person mentioned Gu Beichuan.
Originally, Mr. Gu was too risky for liver transplantation at this age, and the hospital did not recommend it very much. It was just that the old man insisted, and apart from his age, there was no problem with his physical condition, and it was finally settled.
Later, a suitable donor for living liver transplantation was found from his family, and the operation time of the old man was soon arranged. At that time, Gu Nanzhao was very busy. Lu Man only sent a few messages to ask about the situation, and he didn't bother him too much.
Near Mr. Gu's surgery, there were many things at work, and she did not have a proper medical treatment status. Lu Man only called Gu Nanzhao a little later that night. After the operation was successful, Gu Nanzhao's voice was transparent.
She said congratulations on the phone, and didn't say anything else to Gu Nanzhao. She said good night and went to rest. The next day a large-scale financial summit forum was held in this city, and Lu Man and two colleagues also attended as media people.
This large-scale financial summit has gathered many heavyweight guests, including business, government, media, and art circles, and has a very strong influence. Participants at the summit included well-known entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs, and leaders in economics.
The summit lasted three days and included speeches, brand exhibitions, forum dialogues, awards and other activities. Lu Man and his colleagues are responsible for media reporting and interviews of the summit, and the first time to write and organize press releases.
The content of the work is very heavy, and the time is very urgent. Therefore, during these three days, Lu Man has a rest period of no more than four hours a day, almost turning. It wasn't until the closing dinner on the third night that we could take a good rest.
The dinner was semi-public, the occasion was more formal, and Lu Man changed his work clothes. She wore a little black fishtail dress and stiletto heels, her hair curled up, and pearl earrings and necklaces.
Taking the initiative to say hello to the acquaintances present, she was really tired, so she just drank a glass of champagne and drank slowly in the corner. The dinner party was full of many characters, and Lu Man, as a media person, was unremarkable, and only occasionally someone came to chat.
I had a rest at four in the morning the night before, and got up at seven in the morning to start work, and I have been busy until now with almost no rest. This would relax, and Lu Man soon felt drowsy, but had to fight hard.
Later the banquet came halfway, and there was a commotion in the direction of the door. Lu Man heard the system's prompt. Although the person did not move in place, his gaze followed. She saw Gu Nanzhao appearing with a middle-aged man.
This middle-aged man who has some similarities with Gu Nanzhao is his elder brother and Gu Beichuan's father. It is normal for this kind of economic summit to invite people like Gu's family. Only today, there is a relationship between the father and father.
As soon as Gu Nanzhao appeared with his elder brother, he was immediately surrounded by groups, and someone kept stepping forward to say hello. Anyone who cares a little bit about Gu's home knows that Father Gu has just shown a concern after just undergoing an operation.
Lu Man looked at Gu Nanzhao from afar. He wore a black tuxedo and white shirt, a black satin bow tie, and a pair of black lacquered Oxford shoes on his feet. An elegant and beautiful face still has an intoxicating charm.
Before long, many pearly ladies gracefully went forward to greet Gu Nan. He seemed to feel that someone was staring at him, and looked at Lu Man in the direction, his face calmed, and it was no surprise that she was here.
Lu Man calmly looked at him, even raised a glass of wine to him, smiled and drank the rest of the champagne. She set the glass aside and got up to go to the bathroom. After returning, Lu Man went straight to the balcony to blow hair.
It happened that a man and a woman came back from the balcony, and the road passed, but no one else was there. It is September, and it is much cooler in the night than in summer. The night wind blows the leaves of a tall and dense old tree outside the balcony rustling.
There were footsteps behind him, and Lu Man turned around. She ran the elbow of one hand on the balcony railing at random, and looked at Gu Nanzhao who smiled and said, "Mr. Gu is really welcome everywhere."
It sounds like a gratuitous sentence, but it reveals a little jealousy.
Gu Nanzhao also raised her eyebrows with a smile, but immediately raised her hand and surrendered, "It's just ordinary entertainment, please forgive me."
Lu Man grinned with his innocent expression.
She pursed her lower lip and smiled and asked, "Are you free today?"
Gu Nanzhao walked to her and stood side by side with her: "The operation went smoothly and the situation is stable, so you can rest assured. Originally, the Gu family had to attend this economic summit. There was no way to come, and at least it was necessary to show face.
Lu Man bowed his head to express understanding.
Gu Nanzhao turned her head, and with interest, suddenly looked at her.
There was a lingering attitude in his eyes, and it seemed to take such a look, to understand her from hair to heels inch by inch. Gu Nanzhao looked at her blindly, without a word, but watched her intently.
After a long while, it seemed as if I had taken a closer look.
Gu Nanzhao finally smiled and asked, "Are you going back in a while?"
Lu Man nodded: "The work is over."
Gu Nan called a good reply.
They said a few words, and someone found Gu Nanzhao hiding here, and he had to go back to the hall. Lu Man stayed by himself until the end of the dinner. A colleague came forward to ask if she needed to send her back.
Gu Nanzhao said that letting her wait for him later, Lu Man naturally declined the kindness of her colleagues. Later, Gu Nanzhao called her. She took her things and went out. It was easy to see Gu Nanzhao's car.
He drove her back to her apartment.
Gu Nanzhao always drove steadily, and Lu Man sat in the co-pilot seat, dozing a little.
Careful and thoughtful, like this person, he can easily perceive the heavy tiredness on the face of the seat next to him. The place of the dinner was a little far away from her residence, but she was only ten minutes on the road, and Gu Nanzhao parked the car on the side of the road.
"It will take half an hour to go back. You take a break first." Gu Nanzhao unfastened her seat belt, and then she leaned over to help Lu Man loosen. He got out of the car and went to the other side to help her open the door and reached out to help her down.
Lu Man was still wearing that fishtail dress, which was really inconvenient. She did not refuse Gu Nanzhao's kindness, obeyed his arrangement and moved to the back seat. After a few minutes of delay, they were back on the road.
She rested half-sleeping comfortably, let the system call her, and woke up when she was about to reach her place. After Lu Man woke up, the person became more energetic than before, and the whole person sat upright.
Gu Nanzhao saw her awake from the rearview mirror, turned on the lights in the car, and said, "It's coming soon."
Lu Man responded. She had her hair twisted, and after a little sleep, she messed up and broke up. Her hair was lightly scattered, and her head became relaxed. She massaged herself twice, and the car was already driving into the community.
Later, the car stopped, Gu Nanzhao took the initiative to help Lu Man open the door, and still reached out to help her get out of the car, with a smile, watching her stand in front of herself. Lu Man looked at him and smiled, "Thank you for sending me back."
Gu Nanzhao glanced at the time of the watch.
Lu Man asked, "What time is it? Is there half past ten?"
Gu Nanzhao replied, "It's two minutes."
Lu Man nodded.
Gu Nanzhao looked at her and wanted to say that she should go up and rest early, but she changed her mouth when she spoke.
He asked, "Do you mind if I go up and sit for a while?"
The words are exported, but I do n’t know how to be polite.
No one knew who looked at him, but just nodded gently, but he refused.
Gu Nanzhao and Lu Man took the elevator together.
Entering the room, Lu Man asked him to sit on the sofa for a while, and then went to the room to change clothes. When she came back, she wore light short sleeves and denim shorts, a pair of flip-flops on her feet, and her makeup was removed.
Lu Man came over and put a box on the coffee table.
She stood beside the coffee table and asked, "What's for a drink?"
Gu Nanzhao raised her eyes and looked at her, but smiled and said, "This will let me come up and let others see that it is not clear."
Lu Man also sat on the sofa and said a little helplessly, "I have something for you."
She pushed the box in front of Gu Nanzhao.
