Chapter 81 [Propose first or confess first]



Qiu Miao: I am handsome and have a lot of money

Gu Wenye was somewhat confused by Qiu Yanping's direct question at the beginning. No matter how he answered this question, it would seem both awkward and funny. It also somewhat damaged the good image of reliability and trustworthiness that he had built up in front of Mr. Qiu.

"Or, General Gu, you can choose to answer another question first." Qiu Yanping raised the corner of his mouth, but it was not clear how much of a smile he had. He looked at the big cat in front of him and said, "Why did Hua Nan and Hua Bei come to you earlier? Before leaving, did Hua Nan mean to say that you had a wife?"

Gu Wenye put on a stern and majestic face like a Norwegian forest cat and blinked.

These two questions...emmmmm are difficult to answer.

Gu Wenye moved his claws, and his tail subconsciously swung left and right as he was thinking. With this sway, an indescribable strange feeling spread up from the base of his tail. Gu Wenye turned his head to look behind him, and then he realized that his tail had been wrapped like a dumpling.

"..." Qiu Yanping expressionlessly turned the big cat's face towards him, "I'm asking you a question, General Gu, look at me."

"My tail..." Gu Wenye was still a little confused. After all, he was still a cat with a proud face, and the tail was one of the important signs that showed the majesty of a big cat. Gu Wenye had never thought that his tail would be bandaged like this. The level was too horrible... Gu Wenye was wondering which servant had done this. He had to start a remedial class.

"What?" Qiu Yanping saw that the two pointed inverted triangle ears on the big cat's head were drooping listlessly. It looked quite aggrieved, so he couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, "Are you dissatisfied that the bag is ugly?" He stared at the big cat with a flash of displeasure in his eyes.

Gu Wenye paused for a moment because of the dissatisfaction in Qiu Yanping's tone, and then he reacted immediately. He looked at Qiu Yanping in surprise and asked, "Did Mr. Qiu pack it?"

——You can’t blame Gu Wenye for not thinking of this obvious answer. The two brothers Gu Wenye and Gu Wenle have been naughty and injured many times since they were young, most of which were caused by the servants. By the time Gu’s father and mother discovered the wounds, they might have already become infected.

Qiu Yanping let out a breath and snorted softly.

"I didn't expect that a man as old as General Gu would need to chew something to fall asleep," he admitted awkwardly.

Gu Wenye choked, but his expression relaxed as Qiu Yanping spoke.

He was very careful not to fiddle with his tail, for fear of untying the cross-bandage that Qiu Yanping had tied up so tightly.

——It may be ugly, but it was made by Mr. Qiu himself.

When Gu Wenye realized that Qiu Yanping had bandaged the wound on his tail himself, he suddenly felt less nervous about confessing. Before he got an answer and had every reason to doubt whether he was "indecisive", Qiu Yanping still awkwardly and clumsily bandaged him while he was in a coma.

In fact, the bite wound on his tail wouldn't be that serious if we just left him aside and waited for the servants to find it and bandage it.

Does this mean that Qiu Yanping has already taken him in his hands? Can't let him go?

"Please wait a moment, Mr. Qiu. I'll change my clothes and come back, okay?" Gu Wenye looked tenderly at the awkward man in front of him. He should have been suspicious and questioning, but he was always easily led off the topic because of him. Even if he didn't get a definite answer, he just kept waiting. How could he let Mr. Qiu, who was so gentle and always believed in him, keep waiting?

"I will give you an answer." General Gu, who had a heart for a love novel, felt warm inside and said, "No matter what Mr. Qiu asks, I will tell Mr. Qiu without any concealment." The big cat sat upright at the dining table, looking at Qiu Yanping earnestly with its beautiful light gray eyes.

Qiu Yanping felt that the atmosphere should be peaceful and beautiful at this moment, at least he shouldn't laugh. So he stretched out his hand to cover the big cat's face and said in a stern voice, "Then go quickly."

God knows how cute it is to see a big cat sitting at the dining table so seriously and saying those words to oneself.

——And a little funny.

He wasn't sure if he would laugh out loud if he continued to look at the big cat's furry and soft expression while having to imagine the stern look of General Gu.

When Qiu Yanping asked Gu Wenye these questions, it was more about asking for an attitude than an answer. He did not believe that Gu Wenye would be a person who was greedy. This kind of trust should be divided into three levels. On the one hand, he trusted Gu Wenye himself. On the other hand, Qiu Yanping trusted himself and his own vision. He also believed that Gu Wenye liked him and would never look at anyone else.

In a nutshell, it is mainly about believing in yourself.

He is so unique, handsome, rich, and has unique skills. He dares to say that even if General Gu searches the entire world, he will not find anyone like him. The news industry likes him because they have good vision. If you want to find someone better than him, it probably doesn't exist.

Would General Gu, who had such good vision, choose to like someone who was worse than himself? Impossible.

Qiu Yanping raised his chin, so proud that he wanted to raise his tail high.

Gu Wenye spread out his four paws and ran towards his bedroom. As soon as he entered and closed the door, he turned into a human form. He walked into the bathroom naked, took a quick shower, blew his hair dry and styled his hair, picked out his favorite clothes from the closet and put them on, then looked carefully in the full-length mirror to make sure that everything from head to toe to hair was precise and perfect. Then he took a deep breath and walked out of the bedroom.

He dug out the betrothal gift he had prepared long ago for the proposal. It was a palm-sized ball with a lot of space inside that could hold a lot of things. Gu Wenye had started preparing long ago. He bought everything he thought was suitable for Qiu Yanping or something Qiu Yanping would like and put it in the ball. These things were either expensive or cheap, but all of them were Gu Wenye's favorites.

Holding the ball in his hand, he walked nervously towards Qiu Yanping's villa.

My butt still hurts a little, but I won't let this little pain ruin my proposal day.

Qiu Yanping was waiting in boredom in the courtyard for General Gu who had not returned yet. He did not expect that a grown man would have to wait so long to change his clothes. A lady of high rank would not need that much time either. Qiu Yanping complained in his heart expressionlessly, tapping the table with his fingertips, making a regular clicking sound.

In fact, General Gu was still a little nervous after his explanation. Qiu Yanping thought that it was mainly because the daughter-in-law was too strange. Qiu Yanping originally thought that it was a child marriage. Later, he changed his mind and thought that it was thousands of years away from his time. A family with old-fashioned ideas like the Hua family should only have the in-laws from the opposite side who insisted on getting along with him. Gu Wenye would not be so unlucky to meet one, right? The probability of this misfortune would not be that high. Qiu Yanping denied his guess and could not help but continue to ponder.

The more he thought about it, the more anxious he became waiting for Gu Wenye, who had not yet arrived. He finally couldn't help but stand up from his chair and look outside the door.

When Gu Wenye saw his wife looking in his direction, he felt as if they had a telepathic connection. He couldn't help but feel excited. His steps became a little unsteady. He strode towards Qiu Yanping, "Mr. Qiu."

Qiu Yanping opened his mouth slightly, not expecting that Gu Wenye's "change clothes" would be so serious. He blinked twice, and waited until the man came closer and greeted him before he thought about it and asked, "You are dressed like this... planning to go out?"

"Hmm? No, I just think this is more appropriate." Gu Wenye smiled slightly and stood in front of Qiu Yanping. "Actually, I have always wanted to ask Mr. Qiu something, and now I think it might be the right time. But Mr. Qiu should be more interested in my explanation now."

Qiu Yanping was intrigued by Gu Wenye's question. Explanations were actually not something he particularly cared about. Now that Gu Wenye brought it up frankly, his previous irritable and anxious mood was soothed. Compared with the question that was hidden in the mist, the explanation seemed less important.

"Well...why don't you ask your question first?" Qiu Yanping waved his hand and said.

Gu Wenye's smile deepened after hearing this. "Okay."

He took out the small round ball. Qiu Yanping had already noticed this eye-catching round ball. His eyes were glued to it and he raised his eyebrows. Questions about this ball? He stretched out his hand and poked it, asking, "What is this ball used for?"

"It's for Mr. Qiu," Gu Wenye said, "as long as Mr. Qiu agrees to one of my requests."

"Pfft, give me a ball?" Qiu Yanping was amused. Is it a cat toy? He looked around and saw a piece of iron that didn't look like a toy.

"Still begging...what is it about? So formal...it's just a ball, and you still want to do business with me. You can't rely on your status as my partner to bargain like this." Qiu Yanping muttered. The old antique didn't quite know how to play this kind of storage ball. He played with the ball by alternating between his two hands and talked nonsense.

"It's about Mr. Qiu." Gu Wenye paused for a moment and looked at Qiu Yanping's reaction. Qiu Yanping raised his eyebrows and motioned him to continue. He cleared his throat a little nervously and said, "It's about Mr. Qiu's lifelong event."

Qiu Yanping paused, and the small iron ball in his hand fell to the ground, probably hitting an automatically popped-up switch - or it might be that the quality was not up to standard and it was directly broken - all the things in the small ball popped out, covering the area around the two of them.

“…”

Qiu Yanping blinked. First, he was thinking about the most important event of his life, and then there were these unknown things on the ground. Even he felt that his brain was not enough. He took a while to find his voice, "...Are you inviting me to spend the rest of your life with you?" Qiu Yanping really couldn't open his mouth to say the words "propose" and "give a betrothal gift".

"Yes, then Mr. Qiu, are you willing to accept my invitation?" Gu Wenye asked nervously with his hands behind his back, looking at Qiu Yanping. He looked at the tangled and somewhat helpless look on Qiu Yanping's face, and his heart was gripped.

"Well, General Gu, you may have forgotten that I am still engaged, emmmm..." Qiu Yanping said. He was afraid that Gu Wenye would misunderstand that he was politely refusing, so he added, "If there was no paper binding the engagement, General Gu's proposal actually sounds not bad." - He didn't realize that this sentence was like packaging himself up to be given away.

Gu Wenye's eyes lit up.
