Gu Jinchen looked away: "It's okay, no, I mean, I can help you too. Don't you like designing clothes? I know a few designers..."
He felt that his tone became inexplicably weaker when talking to Pei Qinghuan. Does this woman have some strange magical power?
Pei Qinghuan was surprised: "No, thank you, Mr. Gu."
Gu Jinchen frowned immediately. Why did she readily accept the male student's offer to help her, but he was immediately rejected?
He felt unprecedented frustration and resentment.
So he shamelessly used Old Man Gu as a shield: "No, this is what Grandpa Gu asked me to recommend. If you want to refuse, go find him."
Pei Qinghuan was stunned for a moment: "Grandpa Gu? Okay..."
Although I don’t know why Grandpa Gu knew that she was drawing the design, and I don’t know why he sent Gu Jinchen to help her in a roundabout way, I can just give him a call later.
Pei Qinghuan felt inexplicably troubled, but after all, it was the other person's good intention, so he didn't say anything.
"Thank you, Mr. Gu. I'll tell Grandpa Gu later to stop bothering him."
Gu Jinchen frowned slightly, then let go.
"Um."
Anyway, he was sure that Mr. Gu would not miss the opportunity to benefit Pei Qinghuan. He wished he could give his grandson, company and pension to this woman.
No, didn't he think this woman came with a purpose from the beginning? Why was he taking the initiative to help her now?
Gu Jinchen's alarm bells rang, and he suddenly felt a little annoyed and stopped talking.
Pei Qinghuan looked at the man in front of her with a changeable face. He said he would help her in the last second, but he looked unhappy in the next second.
Could it be that he actually didn't want to help himself, but was only forced to do so by Grandpa Gu?
She thought for a moment and said, "Mr. Gu, you don't have to come here to help me just for Grandpa Gu. I can do it myself. Besides, we have signed an agreement, and I don't want to ruin it because of myself."
Gu Jinchen's face was inexplicably hot: "It's not entirely because of Grandpa Gu..."
Pei Qinghuan didn't hear clearly: "What?"
Gu Jinchen stood up and said, "It's okay. I'll give you the designer's contact information later."
His ears were burning and he couldn't quite understand what he was saying. He just felt that he needed to get away from this place as soon as possible to get some peace and quiet.
As a result, I almost bumped into the delivery man as soon as I went out.
"Hello, your takeout."
"……Thanks."
So Gu Jinchen just walked to the door and came back with four takeouts.
Pei Qinghuan was puzzled: "Mr. Gu?"
Gu Jinchen: “…”
He pretended not to see the expression on her face and sat down awkwardly: "The takeaway has arrived, let's eat first."
This reminded Pei Qinghuan of a sentence he saw online: Now that things have come to this, let’s eat first.
She suppressed her smile and handed out takeout.
"I'm so hungry, so hungry, where's mine?"
Tu Ran floated over.
Behind him was Pei Anan, who wanted to continue working but was forcibly pulled over.
Pei Anan was annoyed: "Tu Ran, I told you I'll sit for a while and come over by myself."
"Sister, a customer wants to return the goods, but..."
Pei Qinghuan stopped talking: "An An, the takeaway has arrived, let's eat first."
Pei Anan said "oh" and sat down obediently.
"Yours is not spicy, this one is Tu Ran's..."
"Give."
Gu Jinchen was stunned for a moment and took the noodles from Pei Qinghuan.
There was a fiery red mass of unknown object and turbid soup on it. There was also scattered dust on the plastic bag, perhaps it was stuck on it by the delivery man when he delivered it.
He had never eaten this kind of hot and sour noodles that cost ten yuan per portion on the takeaway platform, so he was a little stunned.
"Although it's just hot and sour noodles, it's very fragrant. This shop is a long-established one, so don't be disgusted."
"Mr. Gu, your chopsticks."
Pei Qinghuan handed him the chopsticks. He looked up and saw the other person's smile that had not disappeared yet, and felt a little gentle.
For some reason, his ears felt a little hot, so he silently looked away and pretended to cover it up by eating noodles.
I don’t know if it was because of his trust in this woman or something else, but even though the takeaway packaging was very simple, Gu Jinchen swallowed it without hesitation.
Then, he died of the spicy food.
Pei Qinghuan and his sister saw that Mr. Gu's face turned visibly red. His lips, which had turned slightly pale due to the cold autumn weather, were instantly dotted with cinnabar, making him look particularly cute.
"Mr. Gu! Water, water is here!"
Realizing that Mr. Gu would faint from the spiciness if he was a second late, Pei Qinghuan hurriedly handed him a glass of unopened boiled water in fear.
“Ahem…”
Gu Jinchen swallowed the cold water in one gulp, choking and his face turned red.
Pei Qinghuan seemed to realize that he had done something wrong and felt very guilty: "I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, I didn't know you couldn't eat spicy food..."
This was ordered according to her taste, as she can eat the spiciest food in the family.
What's even more outrageous is that Mr. Gu's facial features, which turned red due to the spicy food, became even more charming, and she couldn't take her eyes off him.
Pei Qinghuan covered his face: I'm sorry, she is guilty!
Gu Jinchen's knuckles as he held the water bottle were a little pale, forming a sharp contrast with his red lips.
He felt his body's energy draining away, but his soul was still stubbornly trapped in his body. It seemed that he could hold on a little longer...
No, he can't!
