Bai Shimu first saw Gu Jueye on news reports. He was from a prestigious family, exceptionally handsome and elegant. Her first impression of him? "A demon!"
The second time she met Gu ...
The man's thin lips slowly curved upwards, joy radiating from within.
"I'll be home in ten minutes."
"Okay, I'll wait for you at home. I'm hungry. Is there anything to eat at home?"
Bai Qianmo stood in the kitchen, opened the refrigerator and looked around; the refrigerator was empty.
It seems that Gu Jueye hasn't eaten at home at all during the few days she's been away.
When she's home, the refrigerator is always packed full.
When Gu Jueye heard Bai Qianmo say she was hungry, he looked out the car window.
There's a 24-hour convenience store right ahead.
"Park on the side of the road."
Kuching turned the steering wheel and brought the car to a steady stop at the roadside.
Gu Jueye got out of the car and asked the girl on the other end of the phone a question.
"I work at a convenience store, but the ingredients might be limited."
Bai Qianmo asked in surprise, "Mr. Gu, are you the all-powerful Doraemon? I was just hungry, and you appeared at the convenience store."
Gu Jueye smiled, looking quite pleased with himself.
What would you like to eat?
The two young sales assistants who were on night shift were yawning as they sat at the front desk.
A tall figure suddenly walked in through the door, and the two little girls blinked their sleepy eyes.
When she saw the man's exceptionally handsome face, her pupils dilated noticeably.
Gu Jueye was holding a phone, talking to the person on the other end as he walked in, a faint smile always on his lips.
"So handsome! Wow, how can there be such a handsome man in real life?" The saleswoman exclaimed with starry eyes.
After the other girl came to her senses, she took out her phone and started taking pictures secretly.
"So handsome! I have to keep this as a memento."
Gu Jueye strolled around the convenience store, picked out a few snacks that the little girl liked, and also selected some green vegetables and meat. After buying them, he went to the cashier.
The two sales assistants immediately put away their phones, a shy expression flashing across their faces. They didn't dare to look directly at the man in front of them, but couldn't help stealing glances at him.
"Hello sir, the total is 376 yuan."
Gu Jueye didn't say anything, took out his phone, scanned the payment code, picked up the bag, and walked out of the convenience store.
The sales assistant looked on with admiration.
"He's not only handsome, but his skin is also so smooth. It's enough to make people jealous."
"Are you sure she's not a celebrity? She completely blows away all those young heartthrobs in the entertainment industry."
"Of course not. If such an outstanding man were a celebrity, he would have become a sensation long ago."

"Ding-dong"
The doorbell rang, and Bai Qianmo ran to open the door.
The moment the door opened, a familiar figure walked in, accompanied by a gust of cold wind.
After not seeing each other for three days, Bai Qianmo was overwhelmed with longing the moment she saw Gu Jueye.
Even though it was only three days, those three days felt incredibly long.
Gu Jueye walked in, his clear eyes staring greedily at Bai Qianmo for a while.
Are you tired?
Bai Qianmo shook her head, closed the door, and while Gu Jueye was changing his slippers in the entryway, she gave him a big bear hug from behind.
Holding his lean waist and smelling his scent, I felt incredibly at ease.
Gu Jueye placed the bag of groceries on the entryway cabinet and turned around to hug Bai Qianmo.
"What time will you arrive in the capital?"
"Ten o'clock."
Why didn't you tell me beforehand?
Bai Qianmo nestled in Gu Jueye's arms and chuckled, "I know you're busy, and it's inconvenient for you. There are paparazzi everywhere at the airport."
Gu Jueye didn't ask any further questions.
"I'll go cook. If you're sleepy, you can rest for a while."
"I'm not sleepy, do you need any help?"
Gu Jueye smiled and reached out to affectionately pinch Bai Qianmo's pink cheek.
"Then let's watch TV for a while, half an hour will be fine."
"Okay, Mr. Gu, good luck."
Gu Jueye ruffled Bai Qianmo's long hair, then carried the groceries to the kitchen.
Bai Qianmo nestled on the sofa and chose an art film.
While watching the movie, I would occasionally steal a glance at the kitchen.
Through the white partition door, a man was standing by the sink washing vegetables in the kitchen.
Bai Qianmo rested her chin on her hands, her gaze involuntarily drawn to the man's back.
It's hard to imagine that Gu Jueye, the heir of the most prestigious family in the capital, is actually a handsome man who is equally at home in the living room and the kitchen.
He really spoiled her taste and standards.
Half an hour later
Three dishes and a soup, along with a steaming bowl of white rice, were placed on the table.
The two people sat facing each other at the dining table.
Bai Qianmo took a couple of bites of the dish, and the taste was truly uniquely delicious.
"Mr. Gu, why are you so late tonight?"
"I have some things to take care of," Gu Jueye replied simply.
He slowly put down his chopsticks, his gaze gentle as he watched Bai Qianmo across from him eat happily.
He wasn't very hungry to begin with, and after cooking in the kitchen, he was covered in grease and smoke, so he lost his appetite.
I just wanted to talk to the girl a little longer.
"How did the filming go?"
"It went relatively smoothly, except we encountered strong winds on the way to Xichuan, but thankfully everyone is safe."
Bai Qianmo picked up a piece of sweet and sour pork. Before living with Gu Jueye, she thought he was only good at making braised beef.
