Chapter 21 I hit you

Gu Chaoyu: Did you get enough rest? Do you want to come over for dinner tonight? I bought some fresh fish for soup.

Lin Muci looked at the words on the screen, and the pink bubbles that had shattered to the ground began to fly up again...

He asked me out for dinner! He asked me out for dinner!

Should I agree?

On one side is the dinner invitation from the male god, and on the other side is the female devil cousin who is about to come and kill her.

He scratched his hair in confusion, but in the end his reason overcame his love-brain.

If he ran to Gu Chaoyu's house now, when Su Wanqing came and found that he was not there, she would definitely call him and scold him, and then rush to the next door to catch someone.

That scene... he didn't dare to think about it.

[Lin Muci]: No, no, I have friends coming over tonight, so I won’t bother you.

After typing this line, he felt like his heart was bleeding.

He actually rejected Gu Chaoyu!

[Gu Chaoyu]: Okay, then you go ahead and get busy.

Seeing Gu Chaoyu's instant reply, Lin Muci became even more depressed and rolled around twice on the sofa holding the phone.

"Ding dong! Ding dong! Ding dong!"

A quick ring of the doorbell interrupted his sorrow.

Lin Muci jumped up from the sofa and ran to open the door resignedly.

As the door opened, Su Wanqing's delicately made-up face appeared before his eyes. She wore a pair of gold-rimmed glasses, and the pair of eyes behind the lenses, which looked tough, swept him up and down.

"Hey, still alive?" Su Wanqing pushed her glasses and walked in on high heels, with an air of two meters eighty. "Not bad, the doghouse is actually cleaned up. It seems my surprise inspection was necessary."

"Sister, couldn't you tell me a day before you came?" Lin Muci weakly handed her a pair of slippers.

"What kind of surprise inspection is that?" Su Wanqing rolled her eyes at him and walked around the living room, sniffing. "Huh? Did you spray air freshener? Are you trying to cover up some evidence?"

"I don't have any evidence of guilt! I was just cleaning normally!" Lin Muci retorted guiltily.

Su Wanqing ignored him, sat down on the sofa, crossed her legs, and stared at him: "Tell me, has anything happened recently?"

"No... nothing happened." Lin Muci's eyes were vague and he didn't dare to look her in the eye.

"Don't give me that!" Su Wanqing snorted. "I've watched you grow up. The moment you stick your butt out, I know what's up. Your face is as red as a boiled shrimp, and the tips of your ears are almost bleeding, and you're telling me nothing's wrong?"

"My bed was hot! I was just cleaning it!"

"Really?" Su Wanqing drawled out her words, pulling out her phone, opening an interface and handing it to him. "Lin Muci, I urge you to be honest with me. I, Su Wanqing, am a relationship blogger with millions of followers, the Sherlock Holmes of the 'couple world,' and have seen countless men...although they've all been on screen. I can smell the sour stench of your love life from 800 miles away!"

Lin Muci looked at the fancy background data interface on her phone and swallowed.

[Damn it, she's cheating! ]

[My little thoughts are just like running naked in front of her! ]

Just as he was racking his brains to think of how to get away with it——

“Ding Dong——”

The doorbell rang again.

"It must be the takeaway I ordered!" Lin Muci rushed to the door as if he had been pardoned. "Sister, wait a moment, I'll go get some takeaway!"

He opened the door with a smile of relief on his face.

However, the person standing at the door was not the delivery guy.

But it was Gu Chaoyu.

He was wearing casual home clothes and holding a small white porcelain bowl in his hand. Steam was coming out of the bowl, which was black fish soup.

"Mu Ci, the fish soup is ready. I'll bring you a bowl. Drink it while it's hot." Gu Chaoyu said as he looked at Su Wanqing who was raising her eyebrows and looking inquiringly in the living room.

Lin Muci's face, which was smiling a second ago, instantly fell.

In the living room, Su Wanqing pushed her glasses, and a gleam of light flashed on the lenses.

【It’s over, it’s over! 】

[Mars hits the Earth! A public execution!]

. . .

"Who is this?" Su Wanqing broke the silence first. She adjusted her gold-rimmed glasses and analyzed Gu Chaoyu from head to toe.

[Holy crap! Over 1.85 meters tall! Broad shoulders, narrow waist, and long legs! This look could have landed her a spot in the center position!]

This casual outfit looks simple. Is it from that niche Italian couture brand? It's understated luxury.

[My brother is amazing! When did he meet such a handsome guy?!]

Lin Muci was brought back to reality by her voice, his tongue tied. "Ah... this... this is my neighbor, Gu Chaoyu, a Chinese medicine practitioner. That... Chaoyu, this is my cousin, Su Wanqing."

"Hello." Gu Chaoyu nodded politely to Su Wanqing, then handed the small white porcelain bowl in his hand to Lin Muci, "The fish soup is ready. I'll give you a bowl. Drink it while it's hot."

Su Wanqing was still secretly looking at Gu Chaoyu,

Gu Chaoyu's ability was quietly activated at this moment.

[Why did this handsome guy look at me like a love rival before? ]

[Wait... a love rival?!]

[He wouldn't think I'm Xiao Cizi's girlfriend, right?]

[Hahahahahahahahaha there's a chance! Definitely there's a chance! Damn that possessiveness!]

Gu Chaoyu's hand holding the empty bowl paused slightly.

Love rival?

Quite interesting.

Since you want to be a "rival in love" so much, he might as well... take advantage of you.

"Please come in, please come in!" Su Wanqing took the initiative to step forward and welcomed Gu Chaoyu in. "Oh, thank you so much, Doctor Gu, for even bringing soup to our little Ci. He lives alone, and as his older sister, I'm always worried about him."

She deliberately emphasized the word "sister", and after saying that, she walked intimately to Lin Muci and pinched his hot cheek.

Lin Muci's whole body stiffened.

[Sister! What are you doing?]

[Men and women should not touch each other... Oh no, now is not the time to talk about this! ]

"Our Mu Ci has been sticking to me since he was young. He is a child who never grows up." Su Wanqing said to Gu Chaoyu with a smile, and she was reluctant to take her hands away from Lin Mu Ci's face.

Gu Chaoyu remained expressionless, but his fingers hanging by his side curled up slightly.

[I haven't pinched this little face yet! ]

【Take your hands away immediately! 】

He walked to the coffee table, poured a cup of warm water, and handed it to Lin Muci. This action just separated Su Wanqing's hand.

"He's very independent." Gu Chaoyu said lightly, "He's also very good at taking care of people."

Su Wanqing was forced to withdraw her hand.

【!!! 】

[He's anxious! He's anxious! He's jealous!]

Not only did she pour water for my brother! But she also used such a protective tone! Ahhhhhhh, I bumped into her! 】

Lin Muci was completely oblivious to the undercurrent between them. He took the water cup and said frankly, "Sister, don't talk nonsense. How am I clingy to you?"

He just felt that the atmosphere was a little weird.

“Ding Dong——”

"Takeout! I ordered the takeout!" Lin Muci quickly left this place and ran to open the door.
