Translator: Henyee TranslationsEditor: Henyee Translations
Since the two of them met, Qiao Xi had always called him ‘Senior’ or ‘Brother’. To Gu Zheng, the word ‘Brother’ held extraordinary meaning, so he did not allow Qiao Xi to call anyone else that.
Speaking of which, who was she calling ‘Brother’ earlier?
Qiao Xi’s expression eased up when she saw that his expression was normal.
‘Fortunately, I’m smart enough not to tell Gu Zheng that I was calling out to Li Xing’er’s brother. Otherwise, Gu Zheng would definitely rush over and kill him!”
Gu Zheng smirked.
Oh! So it was Li Xing’er’s brother!
Qiao Xi looked at Gu Zheng’s meaningful smile and suddenly felt a chill run down her spine. She was just about to change the topic when she heard Gu Zheng ask slowly, “How did you know that I was in the room?”
“Uh, this…”
Qiao Xi was instantly speechless. She didn’t know how to explain it either. Could it be that they were telepathic?
She resisted the urge to cry and cleared her throat. She said aggrievedly, “Who else would look for me but you? I’m very touched, so I called you ‘Brother,’ but… you’re actually doubting me. I feel so aggrieved! Boo-hoo.
“How would I know that you were looking for me? I thought you were Li Xing’er’s brother! Moreover, I went upstairs to look for President Li. Why did the assistant bring me to see Gu Zheng”
“Although we’re husband and wife, we still need some surprises occasionally. There’s nothing new about calling you ‘Ah Zheng’ and ‘hubby’ anymore, so I wanted to call you ‘Brother’.”
‘Actually, I prefer calling you a bastard, but you definitely won’t let me.’
Hearing Qiao Xi’s words, Gu Zheng remained calm and sneered. “I didn’t expect you to know how to be romantic, Mrs. Gu. Thank you so much.”
Qiao Xi choked.
“Something’s not right! Gu Zheng, who’s so paranoid, actually believes me?
‘Could it be that my acting skills have improved? I can even deceive Gu Zheng now?
Qiao Xi probed, “Speaking of which, Gu Zheng, why are you here?”
Gu Zheng glanced at her. Although she said that she had guessed that the person in the room was him, she could not guess why she was here. She even had the cheek to say that the person she was calling out ‘Brother’ to was him.
Gu Zheng did not expose her and asked indifferently, “I was just casually looking around. Is the competition about to start?”
Qiao Xi nodded. “There’s still 20 minutes.”
“Let’s go. I’ll go with you.”
Qiao Xi frowned. “I don’t have time to accompany you anymore. I just found out that this competition is a two-person competition. I’m alone, so the production time will be longer.”
Gu Zheng smiled. “Come downstairs with me. I’ll give you a surprise.”
Qiao
She followed Gu Zheng downstairs and was about to ask why the assistant called Gu Zheng ‘Sir’ instead of ‘President Gu’. However, she was suddenly stunned by the scene in front of her.
Gu Yao was standing in the middle of the venue with a group of girls around him.
Li Xing‘er was standing not far away and watching the show. When she saw Qiao Xi return, she hurriedly waved at her excitedly.
Gu Yao was surrounded by people. His face was red and he was at a loss.
“Second Young Master Gu, why are you here to watch the competition? You like jewelry design too? It’s not time for the competition yet. I wonder if I have the honor to treat you to a drink?”
Gu Yao said, “I’m not thirsty.”
The girl said sweetly, “It’s okay if you’re not thirsty. We can chat for a while.”
Gu Yao said, “I’m not familiar with you.”
Qiao Xi: “…” What kind of surprise was Gu Yao’s presence?
At this moment, someone came in front of Gu Yao and handed him a piece of paper. She was extremely shy. “Second Young Master Gu, this is my number. If you have time, you can call me.”
Gu Yao’s face was filled with disdain. “Miss, can you be a little more cautious when you’re outside? Aren’t you afraid of being targeted by others if you casually give your phone number out like this? You’re really brainless!”
The girl was about to cry: “…”
After Gu Yao sent everyone away by himself, he sat at the side and stared blankly.
How was he considered the second young master of the Gu family right now? He was just Gu Zheng’s employee. Gu Zheng had ordered him to help Qiao Xi carry the materials, so he had to be obedient. He was the second young master of the Gu family but he was actually reduced to a porter. It was really
too tragic.
Gu Zheng must be jealous of his handsome face!
Qiao Xi walked to his side and said helplessly, “The young lady left you her phone number. Even if you don’t like her, you can’t reject her in front of everyone! You’re not being polite at all.”
