Chapter 144 Prepared a birthday gift
After succeeding, Tu Subo's eyes curved into a graceful arc with a smile. He raised his head and looked at her in the messy bedding: "So, you are going to kiss me?"
"Can I specify which part of the body I want to kiss? Actually, I think..."
"I think you're thinking too well."
Before his thoughts could stray into more dangerous territory, Gu Yuexuan quickly intervened, covering Tu Subo's lips and squeezing out a few words from between her teeth: "I know you're great, but if you could control yourself and not be so crazy, you'd be even better."
After finally resting for a few days due to illness, I didn't expect that after today's incident, this guy would regain his energy.
Gu Yuexuan suddenly felt that perhaps the sickly and listless Tu Subo who had no energy to make trouble was more lovable.
Even the gentlemanly demeanor he had deliberately pretended to have before was beautiful.
Her heart was filled with regret, and she looked at Tu Subo with a look of disappointment and said, "Can't you pretend to be a gentleman for a while?"
Your nagging and sticky nature that you reveal day after day make her feel overwhelmed.
Tu Subo, however, showed no guilt at all. Instead, he said with some pride, "I won't pretend anymore. What else is there to pretend in front of my wife?"
Gu Yuexuan pursed her lips, pretended to be angry and pushed Tu Subo, urging him, "Go, wash your dirty clothes, don't dirty the cleanliness of this room."
Tu Subo paused, lowering his head. A hint of reluctance and helplessness flashed in his eyes. He raised his hands and buried his face in Gu Yuexuan's hands, pleading in his voice, "Xuanxuan, I really don't want to leave you."
Gu Yuexuan's heart softened. She gently stroked Tu Subo's cheek, her eyes full of tenderness: "I know, but you have to understand me too. I don't want to see you suffer like this."
Tu Subo raised his head slightly, with a determined light in his eyes: "Xuanxuan, I am willing to do anything for you, even washing clothes."
A warm feeling welled up in Gu Yuexuan's heart. She knew that Tu Subo's help had gone beyond his responsibility. She sighed softly, a flicker of gratitude in her eyes: "Tu Subo, you really helped me a lot. Without you, my mother, my brother, and I would have had a much harder time in Kyoto."
Tu Subo showed a smile on his face. He held Gu Yuexuan's hand and said in a gentle voice: "Xuanxuan, as long as I can help you, I will be happy."
Gu Yuexuan was moved. She gently stroked the back of Tu Subo's hand, tears of emotion gleaming in her eyes: "Tu Subo, you are so good to me. I..."
Tu Subo saw Gu Yuexuan's tears and his heart tightened. He quickly interrupted Gu Yuexuan: "Xuanxuan, you don't have to say anything. I know how you feel. I will always treat you and your family like this."
Gu Yuexuan smiled slightly. She knew what Tu Subo meant. She sighed softly, with a glint of determination in her eyes: "Tu Subo, I will remember your kindness. I will do my best to make your life better."
Tu Subo snapped his fingers, chuckled, and said, "Gu Yuexuan, guess what treasure I have hidden that makes you so curious?"
Gu Yuexuan's eyes widened, her brows furrowed slightly, but a hint of confusion and curiosity appeared on her face. She bit her lower lip lightly and said, "Tu Subo, I really don't know what you're hiding, but I know you won't let me find it easily."
Tu Subo laughed heartily, pinched Gu Yuexuan's cheek, and said, "Smart! Then I'll give you some hints. This treasure is very important to you, and it's hidden in a place you would never look."
Gu Yuexuan thought for a moment, frowned, and said, "Could it be hidden in the study? There are a lot of books there, and I rarely go in there."
Tu Subo shook his head, a hint of pride on his face: "It's not the study. Let me give you another hint, this is a place you pass by every day, but you never pay attention to it."
Gu Yuexuan's eyes widened as she tried to recall the past. Suddenly, her eyes lit up and she said in surprise, "Tu Subo, you mean... you mean it's hidden in the stable?"
Tu Subo nodded with a smile: "That's right! And it's under the bed."
Gu Yuexuan blushed, a shy expression on her face. She gently hit Tu Subo and said, "Tu Subo, you are so bad. You actually hid the thing in such a private place."
Tu Subo laughed heartily and said, "Who told you to be so smart that you guessed it right away? But I have another question. Do you really not know why I hid this treasure?"
Gu Yuexuan thought about it and shook her head: "I really don't know, Tu Subo, can you tell me?"
Tu Subo looked at Gu Yuexuan, a hint of tenderness flashing in his eyes. He patted Gu Yuexuan's shoulder gently and said, "Okay, it's okay to tell you. This treasure is actually a gift I prepared for your seventeenth birthday."
Gu Yuexuan's eyes widened, a look of surprise on her face: "Really? Tu Subo, you really prepared a birthday present for me?"
Tu Subo nodded and said, "Of course. I remember every one of your birthdays and don't want you to feel lonely. However, the gift can only be given to you on your birthday."
Gu Yuexuan lowered her eyes and thought to herself, "This birthday was an exceptionally lively one." She gently stroked the letter from home in her hand. Her biological mother, Aunt Xiao's handwriting was still as gentle as ever, and every sentence revealed deep care and love.
"Xuanxuan, the gift has arrived." Tu Subo's voice came from outside the door, breaking Gu Yuexuan's thoughts.
She smiled slightly and stood up to greet him. She saw Tu Subo holding an exquisite box in his hand, which was tied with a red ribbon, making it look particularly festive.
"What is this?" Gu Yuexuan asked curiously.
Tu Subo smiled slightly and said, "This is a birthday gift that Master Pei specially prepared for Xuanxuan. He said it was to celebrate Xuanxuan's seventeenth birthday, and he sent it all the way from the capital at full speed."
Gu Yuexuan smiled slightly, her heart filled with warmth. She opened the box and saw an exquisite necklace inside, inlaid with a dazzling gem, which was dazzling.
"It's so beautiful." Gu Yuexuan couldn't help but admire.
Tu Subo looked at Gu Yuexuan, his eyes full of admiration and love. He gently held Gu Yuexuan's hand and said, "Xuanxuan, I will spend this birthday with you."
Gu Yuexuan's heart moved. She looked at Tu Subo with a hint of shyness in her eyes. She lowered her head slightly and thought to herself, "This Tu Subo is really getting better and better at talking."
Tu Subo scratched the back of his head, looked at Gu Yuexuan, and said seriously: "Actually, I have a surprise..."
A hint of curiosity flashed across Gu Yuexuan's eyes, but she quickly regained her composure and smiled, "I know you always have surprises for me."
Tu Subo couldn't help but smile and gently poked Gu Yuexuan's face, saying, "Since you already know, I'll tell you in advance. I originally planned to wait until your birthday to tell you, but seeing the disappointment in your eyes, I couldn't help but tell you in advance."
