"Thank you, Chris."
Gu Xinghe smiled sincerely and solemnly, looking into Chris's eyes, and said to her.
Upon hearing this, Chris saw that Gu Xinghe's gaze was full of sincerity and gentleness as he looked at her.
She felt a surge of heat instantly spread across her cheeks.
Originally, when she heard Gu Xinghe's evaluation of the surprise she had prepared as "a pretty good large-scale event," she was surprised.
Chris originally intended to respond to Gu Xinghe by saying "you're being stubborn."
But Gu Xinghe's words at this moment silenced all the things she originally wanted to say.
Gu Xinghe was watching Chris's trembling eyelashes.
She seemed a little shy and dared not look him in the eye again, yet she was also reluctant to look away.
Perhaps it was because Gu Xinghe had made Chris work as his maid for a period of time in his previous life.
Chris sometimes shows a bit of her wicked sense of humor when she sees Gu Xinghe.
She might even intentionally or unintentionally tease him a little, hoping to see a look of helplessness and defeat on his face.
However, such teasing and banter are all based on the premise that they will not cause any harm to either of them.
But now that I've truly seen Gu Xinghe's genuine smile.
It was because I saw the sincerity in the other person's eyes.
Therefore, Chris does not want to, and will not, "exploit" Gu Xinghe's sincerity to tease or joke with him.
And that's why Chris is now blushing and avoiding eye contact, in the eyes of others.
However, she was completely "hit" by Gu Xinghe's words and calming smile.
But after all that thought, Chris absolutely refused to admit that she had "lost" to Gu Xinghe once again.
"But it's not enough to thank only Chris..."
At that moment, a somewhat provocative voice rang out.
The somewhat romantic atmosphere between Gu Xinghe and Chris was now broken by Mia.
You don't even need to think too much; just listen to the tone of voice and the deliberately provocative words.
This lets Gu Xinghe know that the one speaking now is Mia, who wants to "stir things up," not the other Mia.
Seeing the expressions on Gu Xinghe and Chris's faces, Mia rolled her eyes.
With just one sentence from her, she made the atmosphere on the scene quite subtle.
For Mia, whose past life had ended, this should be the first time she has met Chris and the others present.
But perhaps Mia clearly knew that everyone who came at this time had a close relationship with Gu Xinghe.
That's why she, who loves all kinds of adventurous (and trouble-making) activities, deliberately made a joke at this time.
"That's right, so you don't actually like our arrival?"
Sylph, who had always appeared quite cunning, smiled and responded accordingly.
Although, based on their past experiences together, this was the first time Sylph had seen "Mia" display such a strong personality.
But given the current interesting situation, she responded to the other party quite promptly.
Unlike Sylph, Mia, a genius painter, is actually the painter that Lekaya has always admired.
But Rekaya noticed Mia's deliberate provocation.
But all she felt was that the image of the other person she had imagined had shattered at that moment.
"You can't bully your brother like that!"
But at this moment, Carol, the other twin, acted like a caring little cotton-padded jacket.
Suddenly, she raised the doll in her hand and spread her arms to block Gu Xinghe's way.
It was as if she was shielding him from the unwarranted "harm" from Mia and Sylph.
Although she found Mia and Sylph's reasons for questioning her somewhat strange, she still stood in front of Gu Xinghe without hesitation.
As it stands, a small "standoff" has thus formed.
However, Theresa, as a saint who should have prioritized the greater good, was not the one to act.
Seeing this situation, a look of considerable interest, just like that of Chris, who was now "involved" in the matter, flickered in his eyes.
On the other side, Eiffel didn't quite understand the scene in front of her, but she felt that everyone in front of her seemed quite familiar.
Deep down, she really wanted to join in this "lively" scene.
In the end, as one of the only two men, Luo Zhiye had become a completely emotionless background character.
At this moment, facing the words spoken by the people in front of her and their complex feelings.
For the first time, Gu Xinghe felt that the inner voice he heard was so "chaotic" and "disorganized".
It was simply a chaotic mess.
Gu Xinghe felt that the emotion he had just felt because his companions had gathered together only lasted for a moment.
I have a feeling that after these few days, his mind-reading skills might even improve because of this training.
At this moment, Gu Xinghe also felt that the ominous premonition he had earlier about so many people gathering had indeed come true.
Fortunately, the current situation, which has only just begun to emerge, is still under his control.
Therefore, he decided to deal with the two "culprits" first and "bring them to justice".
"You two, you'd better stop this now..."
He placed his palms on the back of the neck of Mia and Sylph, who had started the commotion.
Then he used the index fingers of his left and right hands to rub their skin, and occasionally pinched the skin on the back of their necks.
