Chapter 59
The next morning, Cancan sat at the table obediently waiting for breakfast, with a smile as bright as the stars on her face, and her little hands waving left and right, as if she was singing and dancing to her own entertainment.
Qi Sen came down from upstairs. When he passed by Cancan, he patted her smug little head and chuckled, "Cancan, why are you so happy today?"
Cancan tilted her head back and gave him a silly smile.
"Daddy makes Cancan happy."
There was unconcealable pride and joy in his tone.
Qi Sen was not surprised by this answer.
Gu Chi has the best talent in coaxing children in the family. Every time Cancan gets angry, he can coax her into peace with just two or three words.
Qi Sen admired this very much.
Cancan is very well behaved most of the time, but once she gets spoiled and starts to make a scene, she won't listen to anyone, which perfectly illustrates what it means to be "arrogant."
At this time, only Gu Chi can deal with her.
However, before, it was just a small issue like asking for candy, but this time he was facing the serious issue of snatching his mother away. Qi Sen thought it would take some time for Gu Chi to coax Cancan, but he didn't expect that the two of them reconciled the next day, and now their relationship is even better than before.
He asked curiously, "What did your father do to make you so happy?"
"Daddy said that Cancan can stay with Mom for one day."
Qi Sen corrected softly: "It means living together for a day."
Cancan: "That's it! Daddy agreed!"
Qi Sen chuckled.
Pei Shen went downstairs and sat at the dining table. He casually drank two mouthfuls of porridge, glanced at the time, and asked calmly, "Is Gu Chi so generous?"
Cancan's face wrinkled slightly: "Third brother is not obedient, we can't call daddy by his name, we have to call him daddy."
"This is a polite and good child." Cancan scolded in a baby voice.
Pei Shen: "Okay, okay, Cancan is right."
Cancan hummed, took the spoon in her little hand and scooped some soup from the porcelain bowl. She smiled sweetly and said to herself, "Daddy likes Cancan the most. Daddy said that you can live with Mommy on February 29th."
Pei Shen and Qi Sen paused their eating and asked in unison in disbelief, "February 29th?"
"Yeah~"
The two looked at each other, laughed and shook their heads.
Awesome.
Gu Chi, you are awesome.
Cancan was completely sold out and was even charged money.
It's okay to be stupid.
Pei Shen thought of Cancan's pursuit of Gu Chi just now and smiled maliciously.
Just as he was about to speak to break Cancan's fantasy about Gu Chi, Qi Sen stopped him calmly, "If Cancan cries now, we will both suffer. There are some things we can't say."
Pei Shen naturally agreed with this, so he listened to Qi Sen and did not tell her the truth.
Maybe after a while, Cancan herself will forget about this.
**
For the next period of time, Sheng Jing joined the crew to film, Cancan, Pei Shen, and Qi Sen went to school, and Gu Chi traveled between S City and school.
Sometimes when he had no classes on Wednesday afternoons, he would drive to S City for a stroll. He would bring milk tea and desserts to the crew in the name of caring about his mother, which made all the staff like him.
On Wednesday night, Wei Xun was still filming until eleven o'clock.
Gu Chi sat in the car and waited for her quietly.
Normally he would meet with Wei Xun and have a few words with her, but today Wei Xun was so busy that he couldn't even have a meal, let alone meet him.
Gu Chi sat in the car with the heater turned up to the maximum. It was a bit stuffy, but he never opened the window.
He held the thing in his arms carefully with both hands and covered it with his coat. When Xiao Shen came over, he couldn't see clearly what was hidden inside.
"I don't know how long she'll finish filming tonight. Why don't you come back? I can pass on anything for you."
Gu Chi: "Cancan has a very precious thing for me to hand over to Weixun personally. You go ahead, I'll just play games here to kill time."
Xiao Shen tried to persuade him a few times, but seeing that Gu Chi was so persistent, he had no choice but to leave in frustration.
Half an hour later, Wei Xun hurried to the entrance of the set without even taking off her makeup.
But there was no one on the quiet road, let alone a car.
"It's so late, he must have left." Xiao Shen said, "Let's go back to the hotel. It's very cold outside."
The evening breeze blew in with bursts of coolness.
Wei Xun wrapped his coat tightly, sneezed, looked at the empty street, and nodded.
"Let's go back."
Xiao Shen was puzzled: "The father that Cancan recognized is also quite strange. He was so determined to wait for you just now, and when he left, he didn't even say a word."
Wei Xun lowered his head and whispered after a while, "Maybe my family urged me to go back, so I forgot to tell them in a hurry."
Xiao Shen joked: "It seems that you have become more familiar with Gu Chi during this period of time, and now you are still speaking for him."
Wei Xun thought of their contact during this period and what she had said to Cancan before, "Let him be the boss for a while", and smiled gently. Her beautiful almond-shaped eyes were curved, and there was infinite tenderness in them.
She didn't explain anything, just wrapped her coat tightly around her and walked forward.
In the distance came the faint sound of car tires rubbing against the ground, which was extremely clear in the silent night.
Xiao Shen was surprised and said, "It's Gu Chi's car."
**
Inside the car, Wei Xun was sitting in the passenger seat.
She looked at the thing wrapped in Gu Chi's coat in his arms in confusion.
Gu Chi carefully lifted his coat, and a strong aroma of food filled his nose.
Wei Xun was slightly stunned.
Gu Chi opened the paper bag like a treasure and placed the plastic boxes one by one on the small square table in the middle of the front row of seats. He said softly, "Your agent said this afternoon that you were so busy that you didn't even have dinner. I bought these specially from Yiweilou. They're authentic Cantonese food. I'm sure you like them."
"The treasure you just told Xiao Shen about must be handed over to me, is this it?" Wei Xun's eyebrows moved slightly, and there was a bit of disbelief and trembling in his voice.
Waited so long just to bring her dinner?
Gu Chi lowered his head and opened the takeout box, smiling as he said, "If I hadn't moved Cancan in as a shield, I would have no reason to stay so late. Try it first. The winter melon and barley duck stew is not greasy. I saw you drink two bowls last time, so I specially ordered one this time."
As he said that, he handed the spoon and bowl to her.
Wei Xun took it in a daze, his mind stuck for two seconds. He looked at Gu Chi with a strange look in his eyes. After thinking for a moment, he asked, "You were not here just now. Did you go to buy this?"
"Yeah." Gu Chi was busy opening the takeout box in front of him and didn't notice Wei Xun's gaze. He smiled and said, "Drink the soup to warm your stomach, then eat something else. Have a good rest after returning to the hotel."
Wei Xun simply asked, "Where did the thing you were holding go?"
Gu Chi pursed his lips, folded his hands on his legs, and looked silly as if to say, "I'm sorry, I did something wrong."
"The one I just had got cold, so I... threw it away." He scratched his head guiltily. "It's shameful to waste food. I will never do that again. I must set a good example for Cancan."
When eating at home, as long as Cancan leaves someone else's bowl, the bowl must be empty. The family uses practical actions to help Cancan develop good habits. Gu Chi doesn't dare to be the bad apple that spoils the whole bunch. When Wei Xun mentioned the takeaway, his first reaction was to admit his mistake and apologize.
Wei Xun looked at him quietly, and when his eyes fell on the steaming soup in his hand, he smiled gently.
"Don't do this again. It's not worth waiting so long for a meal."
Gu Chi frowned, his expression serious: "This is very important."
He knew that he could not interfere with Wei Xun's career, and he could not use his own abilities to help her take shortcuts, give her the best resources, let her film movies with first-class teams, and become the leading actress on the screen.
Wei Xun wants to achieve all these career achievements on her own. She wants to reach the top with her own abilities. This is her dream, and Gu Chi fully supports her.
Since he couldn't help her with her career, Gu Chi had to make a little effort to make her life happy and comfortable.
Changing the curtains for her so that she could live comfortably and sleep well; delivering hot meals to her so that she could have a good meal, these were the only things Gu Chi could do for her.
It's a small matter for her, but a big matter for him.
Before meeting Cancan, Qi Sen, Pei Shen, Wei Xun and Sheng Jing, he liked the high-profile life of being sought after and being addressed as "Little Mr. Gu" wherever he went. After meeting them, Gu Chi spent most of his time at home, thinking every day about how to make Cancan happy, how to make Pei Shen better, how to help Qi Sen gain a foothold in the Qi family enterprise, and most importantly, how to make their family happy every day.
At this moment, letting Wei Xun eat her favorite food was the only way Gu Chi could think of to make her happy.
Wei Xun was indeed very happy.
It had been a long time since anyone had taken her food, clothing, housing and transportation so seriously.
It was as if his dream would come true as long as she drank this bowl of soup.
In the quiet night, a black Bentley was parked quietly by the roadside.
The lights inside the car were on.
The bright light illuminated the two people in the car very clearly.
Wei Xun lowered her head and drank the soup seriously. Gu Chi, who was sitting in the driver's seat, looked at her motionlessly, with countless affections flowing in his eyes, as if he could never see enough of her.
**
The next morning, Gu Chi got up a little late.
Qi Sen and Pei Shen finished breakfast and prepared to go to school. Seeing him coming downstairs, Qi Sen said calmly, "Are you free this Sunday?"
Gu Chi didn't get home until three in the morning last night. His head was in a daze at this moment. He subconsciously wanted to nod, but then he remembered the agreement he had made with Wei Xun last night and said seriously, "No. I have something very important to do on Sunday."
Pei Shen: "Can't postpone it? Cancan wants to go out and play on Sunday."
A new amusement park has opened in the city. Yesterday, after Cancan saw GG on TV, she came up to them with eager eyes and said she wanted to go.
"Why don't you two take them with you?"
Pei Shen: "Gu Chi, I don't ask you to be like other families, nervous all day long because there is a college entrance examination candidate in the family, but can you be a little aware of having two college entrance examination candidates in the family? Qi Sen and I haven't had time to go out and play in the past few months. We are going to the library this Sunday, so you can take Cancan with you."
Gu Chi shook his head, his will firm: "I have something more important than my life to do on Sunday. Where's Sheng Jing? Let him take him there."
Qi Sen frowned: "Sheng Jing also said there is something important."
"Then you two take them. I have something important to do this Sunday, and no one is allowed to bother me."
On his first official date with Wei Xun, he wouldn't allow anyone to disturb him! Not even Cancan!
Before we knew it, Cancan, the former group darling, had fallen into the sad situation of having no one to take her out to play.
Pei Shen and Qi Sen looked at Cancan who was concentrating on eating and sighed.
Forget it, for Cancan’s happiness, I won’t go to the library this week.
**
On Sunday, Gu Chi went out early in the morning.
Cancan changed into new clothes, went downstairs happily, and walked around Qi Sen and Pei Shen twice.
Qi Sen said lightly: "Our Cancan is very beautiful."
Cancan's eyebrows and eyes suddenly curved, and her dimples were cute and soft.
The three of them set off immediately after breakfast.
This amusement park has just been open for two weeks. It has various themed projects, including sweet projects suitable for couples, ice and snow castles and carousels for children, and horror haunted houses specially prepared for horror lovers. The variety of themes has attracted people of all ages to come here to play.
Pei Shen and Qi Sen held Cancan's little hands on either side and walked slowly forward in the endless stream of people.
Pei Shen glanced at the densely packed crowd and asked rather gossipily, "Do you think Sheng Jing is in love?"
Qi Sen bought a string of candied strawberries for Cancan, without even glancing at Pei Shen.
"I'm not making this up. A few days ago, I went to see Wan Yao for a regular consultation, and I found out that Wan Yao was working as a Chinese medicine consultant on the drama "Master." And this drama is the one Sheng Jing is currently filming."
Qi Sen said calmly, "So?"
"Sheng Jing has been in a particularly good mood these days. I asked him last week why, and he said he found the girl who wrote letters in the comic book. Remember? She's the girl who impressed me the last time we had dinner together."
Qi Sen: “I don’t remember.”
Pei Shen: ...
There's no way to continue chatting today.
"Anyway, Sheng Jing told me that person was Wan Yao, and his agent told me that the two of them met privately many times."
Qi Sen tilted his head and frowned slightly: "How did you get to talk to Sheng Jing's agent?"
Pei Shen smiled awkwardly.
"I had a hard time focusing on Chinese a while ago, so Taotao told me a lot of entertainment gossip. Aren't those stories and plots much more interesting than 'Encouraging Learning'?"
Driven by gossip, Wei Xun started chatting with Sheng Jing's agent and asked him for the shocking news in the entertainment industry.
Qi Sen glanced at him and shook his head with a bit of disgust.
"Don't deviate from the topic. The key point now is whether Sheng Jing is in love with my savior."
Cancan raised her head and asked, "What is love?"
Qi Sen said nonsense seriously: "It's the curtains that are too low. Your third brother means that the curtains in eldest brother's room are too low, and we need to change them for him."
Cancan is familiar with changing curtains.
Cancan jumped on the spot and said proudly: "Cancan knows how to choose curtains~"
Pei Shen muttered a few words, looked at Qi Sen dissatisfiedly and said, "Don't disbelieve me. Maybe Sheng Jing didn't bring Cancan today just to go on a date with Wan Yao."
Qi Sen frowned.
"He's not like that."
At this time, they came to the fork in the amusement park. There was a couples area in front of them on the left, a children's playground in front of them on the right, and a movie theater in front of them. Qi Sen and Pei Shen held Cancan's hand and walked to the right, talking to Cancan with their heads down as they walked.
When he looked up at the road, his eyes inadvertently swept over the people in other places, and Qi Sen stopped in his tracks.
Pei Shen was puzzled and looked in the direction he was looking, his expression stiff.
In front of the couples' area, Gu Chi and Wei Xun stood there in a daze.
And right in front of the road leading to the cinema, Sheng Jing and Wan Yao stood there awkwardly, smiling at them awkwardly.
Qi Sen:?
Is this what you call busy?
