Chapter 298 I'm so angry!
Actually, Gu Suixing's clinginess had already begun to show when he was still in kindergarten.
However, he wasn't clinging to his parents, but rather to Lu Nian from next door.
—Back then, Lu Fengqing wasn't called Lu Fengqing; she changed her name when she entered junior high school.
During the summer vacation after sixth grade, Mrs. Lu took her granddaughter to the countryside. They met a fortune teller who said that the name Lu Fengqing would bring a difficult life. To make it more believable, the fortune teller even told her about Lu Fengqing losing her mother at a young age. The fortune teller's words were so exaggerated that Mrs. Lu, who doted on her granddaughter, was terrified and immediately changed her granddaughter's name.
So from kindergarten to elementary school, Lu Fengqing always used the name "Lu Nian".
Gu Suixing called her name so easily that he followed her around all day calling her "Lu Nian, Lu Nian," which annoyed Lu Nian.
"Didn't you say I was annoying? Why do you keep following me around?"
He had previously called her a nuisance and told her not to follow him or come to his house anymore, but now he's bothering her again.
Gu Suixing: "I don't mind anymore."
Lu Nian frowned, "But I don't like you now, and I don't want to play with you anymore."
Gu Suixing: "You didn't say that when we went to the store to buy snacks and you asked me to pay for them."
Lu Nian: "..."
Gu Suixing: "Are you planning to start something and then abandon it?"
Lu Nian didn't quite understand what "starting a relationship and then abandoning it" meant, but her intuition told her it wasn't a good thing, so she immediately said, "I didn't!"
"I don't believe it." Gu Suixing held out her hand. "Unless you hold my hand."
Before Lu Nian could speak, he added, "I'll treat you to ice cream."
Lu Nian immediately shut her mouth and offered her small hand.
She likes to eat cold things when the weather gets hot, but her grandparents are afraid that she will get an upset stomach and won't let her eat too much. They also told the shop owner not to sell her anything from the refrigerator. She can only eat things from the refrigerator if she goes with Gu Suixing.
As they came out of the store, Gu Suixing suddenly called out, "Lu Nian."
Lu Nian licked her ice cream and turned to look at him.
Gu Suixing said in a serious tone, "Don't play with Little Fatty anymore."
Lu Nian blinked. "Why?"
The little girl, just turned five, looked like a porcelain doll. She wore a pink cheongsam, a crystal hair clip adorning her soft, black hair, and a small tiger gold necklace around her neck…
Gu Suixing looked at her and thought to herself, "It's because Xiaopang wants you to be his wife, but the little cheongsam you're wearing was made by my grandma, the hair clip in your hair was bought by my mom, and the necklace around your neck was a gift from my dad. You've taken so many things from our family, so you can only be my wife unless you give all those things back to me."
Of course, he couldn't say that, or Lu Nian would cry. If his dad found out he made Lu Nian cry, his dad would beat him.
Gu Suixing thought for a moment and asked, "Why do you like playing with him?"
Lu Nian blinked. "Because Little Fatty calls me 'sister'."
If you call her "sister," then she's her brother. If she doesn't play with her brother, who will she play with?
"That's easy," Gu Suixing smiled and said, "I can call you 'sister' too."
The two were born in the same year, but Lu Nian's birthday is in February, while Gu Suixing's is in August. Lu Nian is half a year older than Gu Suixing.
Lu Nian glanced at Gu Suixing's face and felt a little tempted.
She loves all beautiful things, and naturally, she likes beautiful people too. Gu Suixing is much prettier than Little Fatty.
Seeing that she remained silent, Gu Suixing added another bargaining chip: "I can also buy you snacks."
Lu Nian's eyes lit up, and her heart-fluttering progress bar jumped from 50% to 90%.
Little Fatty is not only less attractive than Gu Suixing, but he also doesn't have as much pocket money as Gu Suixing...
"If you promise not to play with Little Fatty anymore, I can take you out to play," Gu Suixing continued temptingly, "to the zoo, the science museum, the amusement park, the toy store..."
The progress bar for her heart fluttered to 100%. Lu Nian said with a smile, "Okay, I say yes!"
To celebrate the enduring friendship, Lu Nian asked Gu Suixing to take her to a haunted house over the weekend.
Seeing that no adults were with them, the staff were worried that something might happen to the two children inside, so they tried to persuade them to leave: "The haunted house is very scary. Many children have wet their pants after going in. Why don't you wait until your parents come before you go in together?"
Upon hearing this, Lu Nian felt a little hesitant.
Gu Suixing frowned. "We're not three-year-olds. Who are you looking down on?"
Staff: "..."
You are not three-year-olds, but five-year-olds!
Gu Suixing: "If you don't let us in, I'll file a complaint against you."
Staff: "…………"
In the end, Gu Suixing successfully brought Lu Nian inside.
The haunted house was pitch black. Lu Nian subconsciously moved closer to Gu Suixing, "Xingbao."
Gu Suixing paused, pointed at the "ghost" in front of her and said, "Look at the blood on her mouth, I can even smell the tomatoes."
Lu Nian sniffed. "It seems so."
The staff member who wanted to scare the children: "..."
Gu Suixing: "If you're scared, you can hold my hand."
Lu Nian had requested to come to the haunted house, and fearing being laughed at for backing out at the last minute, she forced herself to say, "Who's scared? I'm not scared at all."
Gu Suixing's eyes flickered slightly, and she changed her words: "I'm scared."
Lu Nian looked at him suspiciously.
"Sister Niannian, I'm scared." Gu Suixing stretched out her hand. "I want to hold your hand."
"Okay, okay." Lu Nian felt needed, and her vanity was greatly satisfied. She reluctantly took his hand and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here."
The staff member dressed as a ghost watched the two children leave hand in hand, his forehead covered in dots.
Are kids these days so cunning...?
The further you go into the haunted house, the more eerie and terrifying it becomes, with chilling sound effects, crying, and screams surrounding you.
But from the entrance to the exit of the haunted house, Lu Nian did not show any fear, remaining as calm as if she were just strolling around.
If she hadn't suddenly developed a fever that night, Gu Suixing would have believed that she was truly unafraid.
Gu Zhenjun and Huo Yao went to visit the little girl next door, and only after returning home did they ask their son, "Where did you take Niannian today?"
Gu Suixing: "A haunted house."
"..."
Gu Zhenjun was furious. "You brat, how old are you? Running this far, aren't you afraid of being kidnapped and sold by bad guys?"
Gu Suixing: "Didn't you say I'm worthless, that nobody would want me even if I gave me away?"
Gu Zhenjun choked for a moment, and after a while, he managed to squeeze out, "Niannian is valuable!"
Gu Suixing's little face was full of confusion. "She eats so much, cries so much, and is so stupid. What's so valuable about her?"
Gu Zhenjun: "Being cute is enough."
Gu Suixing nodded, "Right. Dad, you also think she's a big eater, a crybaby, and stupid."
Gu Zhenjun: "..."
The conversation veered further and further off course. Huo Yao asked her son, "Why did you take Niannian to the haunted house?"
Gu Suixing: "She wants to go."
Gu Zhenjun's blood pressure spiked again. "If she wants to go, you take her; if she wants to fly to the heavens, you take her to the heavens too?"
“What’s so difficult about going to heaven?” Gu Suixing said. “Dad, please give us money to buy plane tickets.”
Gu Zhenjun: "..."
Lying in bed after his shower, Gu Zhenjun was still thinking about it. "I wonder who this brat takes after!"
“Just like you,” Huo Yao said mercilessly. “Your mother said that Sui Xing’s personality is exactly the same as yours when you were a child.”
Dogs hate it.
Gu Zhenjun retorted loudly: "Slander!"
How could he have been like this when he was a child?
After a moment of silence, Gu Zhenjun suddenly said, "Wife, let's have another child."
Huo Yao had no objection to having a second child, but she had to remind her husband, "What if it's another son?"
Gu Zhenjun thought for a moment, his face full of vicissitudes and despair: "I'd rather be angry to death."
