Chapter 22 The Poor Crying Puppy

When it comes to mood, the person who understands Gu Chuyue best must be Qin Mu.

He had been wondering if everything was alright with the little villain, but it turned out he was waiting for him here.

When the little villain is about to get angry and lose his temper, as long as he, the collaborator, is there, he can get angry for any reason.

He reached out to pull the quilt, hoping to expose the person's head so that he could breathe more easily, but it didn't move. The little villain even pressed the corner of the quilt to make it tighter.

Qin Mu was so upset that he said helplessly, "Gu Chuyue, come out."

"If you have something to say, just say it. Don't stay stuck under the covers."

The person under the quilt remained motionless, sobbing to himself.

There was no more sound of people trying to persuade Gu Chuyue to come out. There was only the sound of someone getting out of bed, putting on shoes and walking out of the bedroom, and the door opening and closing.

Hearing the sound of Qin Mu leaving, Gu Chuyue hurriedly wiped her tears and lifted the quilt.

After wiping away her tears, Gu Chuyue realized that her brother had not left. He was leaning against the wall with his arms folded, looking at her with a smile.

"Stop crying."

Qin Mu saw that the person was willing to come out, so he walked over in his slippers.

Gu Chuyue hugged him tightly, desperately trying to get into his brother's arms, and continued to sob, "Brother."

The clothes around her waist were soaked with tears. She slowly patted Gu Chuyue's back and responded softly.

In the end, Qin Mu was the first to give in. "Is it because I haven't been with you properly these past few days?"

"So brother knew!" He quickly got up and knelt on the bed. Gu Chuyue was tall, and even kneeling on the bed he was still a little taller than Qin Mu.

The puppy, who was just listless, started to become more and more demanding when he saw that his owner was willing to coax him.

Dali wiped away her tears, "Brother, why has he been avoiding me these past few days, always using the excuse of having things to do at the company? If he hadn't been there to take me to school and pick me up after school, I'd probably have to live at the company, right?"

"Also! I've been sneaking around these past few days. What does my brother want to do? I was raised by my brother, and he can do whatever he wants to me. What's the point of being sneaky like this!"

"Now you don't even want to sleep. If you don't want to sleep with me, just tell me directly. I will naturally go back to my room and sleep alone. It doesn't matter if I don't sleep well. After all, I have been admitted, right? It doesn't matter if I am afraid of the dark, thunder and rain. Anyway, my brother doesn't want to accompany me all the time. I will eventually get used to it."

"This saves my brother the trouble of moving me."

Qin Mu spoke tentatively: "I don't...I don't think so. The more you talk, the more exaggerated it becomes."

"Nothing, no, didn't brother hide from me? Didn't I move me away and throw me to the bed? Huh? Brother, tell me! Tell me... uh uh uh..."

Seeing the little villain getting more and more excited, Qin Mu pinched Gu Chuyue's cheeks with one hand, making it impossible for him to speak complete sentences.

There were still tears in the little villain's eyes, and he stared at him with sadness. Qin Mu didn't know what to say for a moment.

Qin Mu raised his other hand to wipe the tears from the person's eyes and said with a faint smile, "What a poor little dog."

Qin Mu felt sorry for the aggrieved and spoiled girl, but also a little cute, wasn't she?

Gu Chuyue looked at the brother in front of him, with a slightly raised corner of his mouth and a teasing look in his eyes. He wiped his tears and coaxed him gently and virtuously.

He felt that it was okay to take it.

Gu Chuyue's emotions stabilized. Qin Mu was happy and relieved in his heart. This living ancestor finally stopped for a while.

Seeing that Gu Chuyue had stopped spitting anger and wanted to stick to him again, the hand pinching his face used a little force to stop him.

The person in his hand started crying again.

Qin Mu was helpless. Forget it. If she wasn't wearing any clothes, then she wasn't wearing any. It wouldn't be a big deal to hug her.

Thinking of this, he took the initiative to move forward, let go of his hand and hugged the person.

The puppy was happy to have gotten the bone. Gu Chuyue hugged his brother back tightly, resting his head on Qin Mu's shoulder with his face facing his brother's neck.

After the others adjusted their positions and hugged him, Qin Mu explained, "I'm not avoiding you on purpose. It's my own fault. I've been busy with the company these days, and it's not that I don't want to accompany you. It's just that you're so old and still squeeze your brother when you sleep. I just want to sleep in a more spacious place. Is that not okay?"

Qin Mu did not choose to explain it completely, in case he thought too much and said it out loud and misled the villain, so he tried to avoid it.

But someone didn't seem to give him this opportunity, "Okay, what about the engagement?"

"What?" Qin Mu was surprised.

"My brother and I were betrothed as children. This was arranged by my mother."

Oh, I found something wrong. The little villain now understands the engagement. Maybe they've been together forever and are worried that I'll kick him out after marrying someone else. Qin Mu organized his words, "You... yes, no, you're still young and don't understand these things. Our one doesn't count. Marriage is for you to wait until you meet someone you like in the future. Do you understand?"

After he finished speaking, he shook Gu Chuyue.

The person lying on his shoulder didn't look very happy. He didn't understand why his brother had come here and he liked it, so he had to be with him.

Gu Chuyue lowered his voice and sounded pitiful, "But I like my brother~ Doesn't my brother like me? Doesn't my brother love me anymore?"

"I like you, but this kind of like is different." Qin Mu tried to answer in a light-hearted tone, but he was still like a worried puppy. "You are my only brother, and you still say I don't love you? Okay, little friend Gu, it's time for you to go to bed. You have to go to school tomorrow."

His brother didn't understand his feelings and didn't recognize their engagement. Gu Chuyue's emotions were up and down, but he didn't show it on his face.

He is not strong enough now, but as long as his brother doesn't really refuse, he still has a chance. He doesn't want any accidents, his brother can only be his.

Adjusting his expression, he said meaningfully, "Okay, then brother, you must always be good to me, no matter what happens to us."

As expected, Qin Mu nodded in agreement. Fearing that he wasn't convinced enough, he continued, "Brother will always treat you well and will never abandon you."

The next morning, Qin Mu sent Gu Chuyue to school as usual. After giving him instructions at the school gate, he slowly drove away.

After the school was out of sight, Qin Mu increased the speed by 40 mph to the maximum speed limit while calling Xiao Jiangran.

Xiao Jiangran probably hadn't woken up yet, so a drowsy voice came over, "Hello."

"See you in wild colors."

Xiao Jiangran said angrily, "Qin Mu, can you please stop being so arrogant just because you're an investor? It's only eight in the morning. Not everyone has to send their kids off. No, it's college students going to school! I need to sleep!"

After saying that, he added, "Come to my house," and then hung up the phone.

Qin Mu: ...

Is eight o'clock early?

Serves you right!

It was Xiao Jiangran who gave him the hint, allowing the little villain to seize the opportunity. A meaningless verbal engagement almost turned him gay. His little villain should be happy in the future.

The villain in the original book is not a love-minded person, but has a strong sense of career development. Even if he wants to get married, there will be someone who will carefully check it for him.

After turning around at the intersection, Qin Mu went to Xiao Jiangran's house.

On the other side, Gu Chuyue did not go to the classroom obediently to attend class, waiting for Qi Yuming to arrive at school.

Qi Yuming dragged himself along, holding his coffee, and as soon as he arrived at school, he saw Gu Chuyue standing there. Everyone entering and leaving the school gate would secretly look at him, regardless of gender.

He took a sip of the coffee in his hand and sighed: This kid Gu Chuyue is so damn eye-catching. Even if he is covered with labels saying "keep away from strangers", it can't hide his beautiful face.

Hiss~ It’s so bitter, hmm, the coffee in my hand.
