Gu Qingqing plastered a fawning smile on her face, but dared not look Fu Jue in the eye.
She was afraid he would lose his temper with her. Despite his gentle smile lately, she knew that as the world's richest man and a super tycoon, how could he possibly be a gentle and good-tempered person?
Hearing her flattering words, Fu Jue was secretly pleased, but he didn't show it on his face.
His expression was cold, and his thin lips parted slightly: "Qingqing, if there's a next time, I won't let you off easily."
"Huh?" Gu Qingqing opened her mouth wide, not expecting him to forgive her so quickly. He didn't scold her or teach her a lesson. He just let bygones be bygones with a single sentence.
"Mr. Fu, there will absolutely be no next time, I promise." How could there possibly be a next time she would sleep in the same bed with him? She wouldn't dare.
His bed was so big that it could sleep four or five people, but she was a restless sleeper and almost fell asleep next to him. She was just a little bit away from waking up. If she had woken up any later, the situation would probably have been even worse and more awkward.
Luckily, she woke up in time; otherwise, if something had happened between them, wouldn't she have been at a disadvantage?
(Xiaxia: It seems like Master Fu is the one who's at a disadvantage! What disadvantage are you at? He's incomparably handsome, upright and honest, and there are so many girls who want to sleep in his bed that they could circle the earth several times over. Humph! Aren't you satisfied?)
They hurriedly got up when they heard Assistant Yin's urgent knocking on the door.
The thought of sharing a bed with Fu Jue made Gu Qingqing's face flush and her heart race.
She hurried downstairs, like a child who had done something wrong but was too ashamed to admit it, not daring to look Assistant Yin in the eye, and asked him to take care of Fu Jue.
"Mr. Fu, what's wrong with Miss Gu?" Assistant Yin noticed Gu Qingqing's unusual behavior, but for a moment he couldn't recall that she and Fu Jue were alone in a room together.
Fu Jue wiped his face with a damp towel, glanced coldly at Assistant Yin, and rolled his eyes at her. "Do your job, mind your own business."
Fu Jue thought it was a good thing that she blushed and ran away shyly this time. She was finally acting like a little girl, no longer being so carefree and naive.
"Oh." Having been scolded by Master Fu, Assistant Yin felt wronged, lowered her eyes, and pouted slightly.
Ever since Master Fu met Gu Qingqing, his status has plummeted, like a rollercoaster ride.
If Master Fu really marries her, wouldn't his status be relegated to the very bottom?
After Assistant Yin left Fu Jue's bedroom, she remembered that when she entered the room, Master Fu was in the same room as Gu Qingqing. Had they spent the whole afternoon together? Did they sleep in the bed together, or did she sleep on the sofa?
Oh my god!
Assistant Yin seemed to have discovered something, but she didn't say anything, and she didn't dare to ask Fu Jue about it directly.
He helped Fu Jue downstairs, and the two arrived at the lobby on the first floor, where they saw Gu Qingqing sitting on the sofa playing on her phone.
"Master Fu, don't my brothers know about me? I don't have any information about them on my phone." This is really strange. She checked her phone and couldn't find any information about them. Didn't Fu Jue say he would notify them?
"Don't be nervous, they might have been delayed by something," Fu Jue comforted her softly, giving Assistant Yin a meaningful look before sitting down next to her.
With nearly a decade of tacit understanding, Assistant Yin immediately understood the meaning behind his gaze.
"Oh dear, Miss Gu, I'm so sorry. It was my fault. I was so busy this afternoon and forgot to inform your three brothers. I'm so sorry, Miss Gu. Please forgive me. I really didn't mean to."
Assistant Yin, having received a hint from Fu Jue, became the scapegoat. It was clearly Fu Jue who told him not to rush to notify Gu Jin and the others, but now he was being made the scapegoat. He was truly pathetic.
"..." Gu Qingqing was speechless. Assistant Yin had already apologized, and he was still acting so humble. What could she do? Was she supposed to give him a good scolding? Or beat him up?
"It's alright, Assistant Yin, don't blame yourself. This was originally my own problem, not your fault." Gu Qingqing smiled gently, stood up, and bowed slightly to Assistant Yin to express her apology.
"Furthermore, I don't really want to inform my brothers so soon. If they find out about me, they will definitely be very anxious and drop everything to come back and see me. I don't want to affect their work. Their work is not just for themselves, but also for so many employees, colleagues and partners. I can't be so selfish as to let those people's work be affected by me."
That's really what she thought. If Gu Jin went out of town to discuss business and actually came back, his group, his employees, and his partners would be severely affected, and he might even lose hundreds of millions of yuan in business deals.
If Gu Mu is filming and he has to rush back, it will definitely affect hundreds of staff members in the entire crew, which will damage his reputation. If he wants to enter the entertainment industry, he needs a good reputation.
Gu En was training with the national sports team, preparing for a competition several months later. She couldn't disturb him and distract him from the competition. As a public figure, his reputation was more important than anything else.
Anyway, she has nothing to do right now, so she doesn't need Gu Jin and the others to rush back to be with her immediately. She can come back tomorrow.
Moreover, Gu Mu can go home and rest for a day tomorrow, and Gu Jin and Gu An will also be back the day after tomorrow.
"I'll tell my second brother about my situation tomorrow when he gets back. As for my eldest and third brothers, I'll tell them a day or two later."
Hearing her words, Fu Jue showed a relieved expression. "Qingqing, you're such a good sister, they definitely won't blame you."
"Yeah, even if they're angry, they won't yell at me. At most, they'll just stop giving me a month's allowance." Gu Qingqing chuckled, looking a little dazed.
"It's okay, I'll give you some extra pocket money." He raised his hand and stroked her head, his eyes filled with affection.
"No need! I don't need money. Mr. Fu, I appreciate your kindness. Thank you for giving me another good brother." Gu Qingqing shrank her neck because he kept stroking her head, which made her neck feel like she was being petted as a puppy.
Good brother?
Fu Jue's expression changed slightly. He was speechless at her words, and the smile on his lips froze. He was no longer happy.
Who will be her good older brother?
He clearly wanted to be her lover, but she had low emotional intelligence and didn't realize he liked her. She even mistakenly thought he was being nice to her because he wanted to experience what it was like to have a younger sister.
Seeing Fu Jue's unusual behavior, Assistant Yin, who was standing to the side, couldn't help but laugh. Fu Jue had been humiliated by Gu Qingqing; only she could make him suffer a loss.
Having successfully received a glare from Fu Jue, he quickly covered his mouth and turned his back to Fu Jue.
Pretend you're not laughing, pretend you didn't see Fu Jue's warning.
"Assistant Yin, what's wrong with you?" Seeing Assistant Yin's self-deception, Gu Qingqing burst into laughter.
Being mocked by the young girl, Assistant Yin felt angry, embarrassed, wronged, and sad. "Miss Gu, if you laugh at me again, I will never speak to you again."
He couldn't think of anything to threaten her with, so he could only threaten her verbally. Even so, he still received a sharp look from Fu Jue, warning him not to bully her.
Mr. Fu really protects and dotes on her. They haven't even officially started dating, and they haven't even reached the point of marriage yet, but he's already treating her so well.
Assistant Yin felt like he had been hit with a critical strike. He wanted to leave the chaotic scene, or maybe he should find a girlfriend too?
