Chapter 214: Chapter 192: Mr. Gu is a bit anxious...
Mr. Gu was on a business trip for two days, and hadn’t seen Qiao Yuxian for two days.
After getting off the plane, he went straight to the Qiao Family.
After leaving the Qiao Family house, Qiao Zhiang and Qiao Lech were in the car with him.
At the race track
The crowd grew larger.
He missed her a lot.
And really wanted to kiss her.
She started acting up again, and he couldn’t hold it in.
Qiao Yuxian was caught off guard by the kiss and was stunned.
Her hand clenched, causing the milk tea to spill from the straw all over her hand.
Mr. Gu initially just wanted to give her a quick kiss to keep her calm.
But after really kissing her, he felt one kiss wasn’t satisfying enough.
He saw the milk tea spilled on her hand, let go of her, took the milk tea from her hand, and then led her straight to the bathroom at the shooting range.
Everyone watched as Mr. Gu kissed her and then slightly anxiously led her away.
Everyone was in disarray.
The Mr. Gu in their minds, the one who was indifferent to earthly desires, emotionally closed off, and ascetic...
Has he really changed this much?
This...
This version of Mr. Gu was beyond Lin Huai Shu’s understanding, his head was buzzing with disbelief.
Even if Mr. Gu got married, there were still many things Lin Huai Shu couldn’t picture.
After all, they’ve known each other for over twenty years.
They’re quite well-acquainted.
He couldn’t imagine Mr. Gu getting married and having kids.
But now, these scenes were unfolding right before his eyes.
It took Lin Huai Shu a while to look away, glancing at Meng Yan and Su Qi, he said, "That was Mr. Gu just now, right? I wasn’t seeing things, was I?"
Upset, Meng Yan and Su Qi looked at him silently.
They had heard things even more shocking than this in Yue City.
So this was... not much.
Lin Huai Shu saw their silence, glanced at them, and said dazedly, "You’re all here, so it must be Mr. Gu."
Su Qi and Meng Yan smiled at him.
Lu Mengyi, sitting at the back, kept watching them.
Her expression was calm, revealing nothing about her thoughts.
But when Mr. Gu pulled someone into his arms, her eyes flashed intensely.
Even though all of them could see Mr. Gu, Qiao Yuxian was completely out of sight.
Yet when he bowed his head, they knew what he was doing.
Encountering Qiao Yuxian seemed to reveal a shift... outwardly he was still the same, but his inner self had changed completely.
Or perhaps, this has always been who he was.
His identity, experiences, and responsibilities completely shut him off.
Meeting Qiao Yuxian released that closed-off person gradually.
Lu Mengyi kept watching them.
Until their figures disappeared, then she lowered her gaze.
The woman beside her, seeing her sadness, glared in the direction where Mr. Gu and Qiao Yuxian vanished.
Her eyes were filled with a growing severity.
Chu Zhengran also looked toward Mr. Gu, but his peripheral vision stayed on Lu Mengyi’s reactions.
He picked up the tea in front of him, took a sip, quietly sighed in his heart.
He wouldn’t interfere with his brother’s romantic matters.
Yet at this moment, he felt a bit sorry for Lu Mengyi.
After all, childhood sweetheart meets destined love.
But could never win against destiny.
...
Mr. Gu led Qiao Yuxian to the bathroom.
Helped her wash the spilled milk tea off her hands.
Qiao Yuxian stared at the water flowing over her hands, paused briefly, and said, "So many people... you..."
"They can’t see," Mr. Gu said calmly.
"They’re not stupid," Qiao Yuxian said softly.
"They can be stupid," Mr. Gu replied.
The authority of Mr. Gu was undeniable.
If Mr. Gu said they were stupid, they wouldn’t dare to be otherwise.
Qiao Yuxian stopped speaking. She was silent for a while, then looking at the half-spilled milk tea on the sink, she said, "My milk tea. I only took three or four sips."
"I’ll buy a new one later," Mr. Gu replied.
"Great," Qiao Yuxian was excited.
Mr. Gu glanced at her through the mirror, then lowered his eyes and dried her hands.
Once her hands were clean, Qiao Yuxian was ready to buy a new flavored milk tea.
She had already decided which flavor she wanted.
But she couldn’t take a step before Mr. Gu pulled her back again.
"Huh?" She looked at him.
Mr. Gu said nothing, simply wrapped his arm around her waist and pulled her into his embrace, kissing her.
Qiao Yuxian: "!!!!!!!???????"
Lin Huai Shu and the others were still waiting for Mr. Gu and Qiao Yuxian.
But after waiting a long time, neither returned.
Lin Huai Shu even went for a round of playing with Qiao Zhiang and still, they hadn’t returned.
Impatient as always, Lin Huai Shu couldn’t help but ask, "Old Chu, why haven’t they come back?"
Chu Zhengran gave him a glance, said nothing.
"Are they not coming back?" Lin Huai Shu asked again.
Qiao Lech sitting next to him blinked.
"What do you think they’re doing?" Lin Huai Shu asked again.
Chu Zhengran gave him a look, as if he wanted to shatter a teacup on his head.
"Isn’t Mr. Gu being a bit unreasonable," said Lin Huai Shu, "I never thought he was such a Mr. Gu. Promised to take the little sister-in-law out to play, but now he’s off enjoying himself."
Lu Mengyi and the woman beside her watched Meng Yan and the others shooting targets.
Hearing their talk, the woman beside Lu Mengyi looked at her.
Seeing Lu Mengyi a bit lost, the woman grew angry, her face was livid.
"Friendly reminder," Chu Zhengran finally spoke, "If you want to stay alive, shut up."
Lin Huai Shu immediately closed his mouth.
He glanced around, saw no sign of Mr. Gu, and sighed with relief but said nothing more.
After a while of silence, he saw Qiao Lech sitting idle and said, "Sister, why don’t you go play?"
On hearing this, Qiao Lech looked at him, smiled and said, "I don’t know how."
"I’ll teach you," Lin Huai Shu said.
"No, no need," Qiao Lech quickly replied.
"It’s alright. Let’s go," Lin Huai Shu stood up and pulled Qiao Lech along.
Qiao Zhiang sitting next to Chu Zhengran ate a small cake, seeing his sister being pulled away, he immediately stood up to chase after her.
He had just removed his blindfold, opened his eyes, and found his sister missing.
His sister was right before him.
Couldn’t afford to lose her.
But as he took two steps, Chu Zhengran pulled him back.
Once he was grabbed back, his little head thought of many things.
Oh no, today the three siblings would fall into these three men’s hands.
These three men wanted to separate them.
Unaware of what he’s thinking, Chu Zhengran pulled out a tissue and wiped the cream off his lips, patting his little bottom and said, "Go on."
All thoughts vanished instantly from Qiao Zhiang’s mind, he patted his little bottom and said, "Thank you, brother."
He quickly chased after them.
Meanwhile, Mr. Gu and Qiao Yuxian were on the racetrack’s open-air grandstand.
After leaving the bathroom, Qiao Yuxian’s face was red-hot.
And the more she thought about meeting so many people later, her face got even redder.
So Mr. Gu took her out for a stroll.
Bought her a new-flavored milk tea.
Qiao Yuxian drank milk tea as they strolled.
They strolled to the racetrack, watched the races for a while.
Until the redness in Qiao Yuxian’s face completely faded, and then they started back...
