Chapter 692: My Surname Is Situ
Gu Yao was indignant. “Tsk! She sure knows how to find a way out! Hah, she seems so kind now. Where did her arrogant look from earlier go?”
Luo Qing rubbed Qiao Xi’s hair affectionately. “Little Six, the matter has been resolved.”
Qiao Xi held Luo Qing’s hand and smiled sweetly. “Yes!”
Gu Zheng frowned and took a few steps closer to Gu Yao. He asked in a low voice, “Who is this man? He’s even touching Qiao Xi’s hair? I’m still here. What is he doing?!”
Qiao Xi vaguely heard Gu Zheng’s words, and the corners of her mouth twitched slightly. It seemed that Gu Zheng had never seen Second Brother before. Would he be jealous?
In the past, Gu Zheng would never stop her from interacting with her brothers. Every time he saw them coming, he would stand a distance away and look at her gently. It seemed like the original Gu Zheng would not be jealous of her brothers!
According to their interactions over the past few days, Qiao Xi gradually realized that the second personality’s thoughts were similar to Gu Zheng’s. It was just that Gu Zheng had experienced many things and had become taciturn, steady, and calm. He was good at pretending and would not easily expose his emotions. However, this second personality had very little experience and did not know how to hide his emotions at all.
So… Gu Zheng would get jealous in the past as well? It was just that he never said anything?
Qiao Xi let go of Luo Qing’s hand as if she had been electrocuted. Coincidentally, the shop owner walked in front of Luo Qing and bowed respectfully. “Young Master Luo!”
Then, the shop owner handed the porcelain vase to Gu Yao. “According to the rules we set previously, as long as the person invites the top porcelain master in the world, this porcelain vase will belong to them. Although you haven’t made the porcelain vase with hollowed-out jade rings yet, I believe you won’t go back on your word.”
When Luo Qing entered, he had already seen the pink porcelain vase. It was indeed a high-grade porcelain vase, but this porcelain vase was naturally inferior to a porcelain vase with hollowed-out jade rings.
“Young Master Luo, you’re aware of my grandfather’s request. As long as you can create the perfect porcelain vase with hollowed-out jade rings, we’ll naturally give you a generous reward.”
The process of making this porcelain vase was complicated, and Luo Qing had only done one. This was a little difficult for him, but as long as he was given enough time, he was confident that he could create a perfect piece.
Luo Qing asked, “May I know your name, sir?”
Gu Yao was about to say that the shop owner was unwilling to reveal his name when the shop owner smiled and replied, “My name doesn’t matter, but since you asked, I naturally have to answer. My surname is Situ.”
“Situ…” Luo Qing hesitated for a moment. “If that’s the case, I really can’t say anything. After the porcelain vase is made, I’ll come again.”
Gu Zheng’s eyes darkened. No wonder the shop owner was looking for someone to make the porcelain vase with hollowed-out jade rings. It was because other than Luo Qing, there was another person who could make it. It was the former head of the Situ family, the old man’s missing eldest grandson.
…
After bidding farewell to Luo Qing, Qiao Xi got into the car with Gu Yao.
After returning to Longwan Residential, Gu Yao was overjoyed. “Qiao Xi! You’re really my idol! I went there a few times but couldn’t buy this porcelain vase. You helped me get it as soon as you went, and you didn’t spend any money. Grandma will definitely be very happy.”
“I officially announce that from today onward, you’re my eldest brother. If you’re so capable, why do you even need to get married?! You should just be a beautiful single woman!”
Gu Zheng frowned and was about to flare up when Song Shiyu said slyly, “Actually, I think it’s good for Young Madam to be single. She’s such an outstanding person, so she must have many suitors. If she gets married, she won’t be able to date other men.”
Gu Zheng revealed a bloodthirsty smile. “What should I do if I suddenly feel like hitting someone?”
Song Shiyu took a few steps back and looked at him in horror. “President, I was wrong. Second Young Master said it first.”
Gu Zheng was silent for a moment. “Alright, I’ll hit him first. I’ll deal with you later.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Song Shiyu fled. Gu Yao also sensed that the atmosphere was not right and quickly found an excuse to leave.
Only the two of them were left in the living room. Qiao Xi suddenly thought of something and turned around to ask, “Gu Zheng, do you know that Luo Qing is my second brother?”
Gu Zheng’s face darkened. When he thought of her smiling at Luo Qing, he felt annoyed and nodded unhappily.
Qiao Xi looked at him in confusion. “You know that he’s my second brother, so why do you look so unhappy? Could it be that you were jealous when I was with my second brother?”
A trace of surprise flashed past Gu Zheng’s eyes, then he looked at her with an accusatory gaze. He was like a puppy that had been abandoned. He said unhappily, “He’s not your biological brother.”
