A couple was taking a walk downstairs in the residential complex.
Gu Fan kept his head down, staring at his phone, ignoring Bai Lingyu beside him.
The latter would steal a glance at him from time to time, her bright eyes darting around with a playful and adorable air.
"Hey, why are you always on your phone?"
Gu Fan glanced at her: "What are you doing if you're not playing on your phone?"
He had visited this place countless times. This time, he simply sent Bai Lingyu away so that the elders could discuss things on their own.
Bai Lingyu rolled her eyes at him: "It's so sunny here, why don't we go play somewhere else?"
Gu Fan asked, "Where would you like to go?"
Bai Lingyu giggled, "I want to drink milk tea! Cousin, you treat me!"
Gu Fan smiled faintly and did not refuse: "Then let's go."
Soon, the two left the residential area. Gu Fan drove the motorcycle there, and Bai Lingyu, wearing a helmet, sat on the back, hugging Gu Fan tightly.
The little girl is indeed developing well; Gu Fan could even feel a soft sensation coming from his back.
Bai Lingyu was overjoyed.
My cousin's back is so broad, it makes me feel so safe!
She's a brother-obsessed girl and usually clings to Gu Fan a lot.
The two went to a nearby Mixue Ice Cream shop, ordered two cups of milk tea, and sat down.
Gu Fan hesitated for a moment, then asked, "How's things at home lately?"
Bai Lingyu nodded: "Yes, yes, that's good. Grandma is in good health too. She can still do chores and keep herself busy. She won't listen to us when we tell her to rest."
Her tone was normal, so it seemed she really didn't know about her second uncle's situation.
Gu Fan sighed inwardly. This little girl was quite lively and cheerful. How heartbroken she would be if she knew that her father was sick.
Gu Fan didn't plan to tell her; as for when she would find out, that was up to fate.
At this moment, Bai Lingyu suddenly asked, "Cousin, is your wife free?"
Gu Fan immediately looked at her warily: "What do you want to do?"
Bai Lingyu chuckled, then tentatively asked, "Could I video call my cousin-in-law? I'd like to see her."
She was very curious about her cousin's wife. How could her cousin like her so much? She must be very beautiful.
Gu Fan was clearly reluctant and refused, saying, "Your cousin's wife is very busy and doesn't have time."
"What? You're lying! I just saw you chatting with her! Good cousin, just say yes!"
Bai Lingyu even started to act coquettishly.
Gu Fan was really exasperated by her, so he could only agree, "Fine, I can't guarantee she'll want to see you."
"Uh-huh!"
Bai Lingyu nodded vigorously.
Gu Fan sent Jiang Yumeng a video call invitation.
The other party answered quickly, and a stunningly beautiful face appeared on the screen.
"Hey! Bro, why are you video calling?"
Jiang Yumeng greeted them.
elder brother?
My cousin's girlfriend calls him "brother"? What's going on?
This...this is way too ambiguous, isn't it?
Bai Lingyu's expression was somewhat strange.
Gu Fan, however, remained calm, looking at Jiang Yumeng with a smile: "Have you eaten?"
"Not yet, Auntie is making it."
After a brief chat, Gu Fan explained his purpose.
Jiang Yumeng seemed a little shy when she heard that Gu Fan's cousin wanted to see her.
However, she still agreed.
Gu Fan looked at Bai Lingyu, who was craning her neck to get closer, and said with a sullen laugh, "Alright, your cousin-in-law wants to see you."
Bai Lingyu perked up and quickly came over, a hint of nervousness on her face.
When she saw Jiang Yumeng on the screen, she was immediately amazed by her beauty.
Is this... my cousin's girlfriend?
So beautiful!
With her stunning looks and perfect figure, this girl is just too perfect!
"Hello, is this Xiaoyu?"
Jiang Yumeng greeted everyone in a natural and generous manner.
Bai Lingyu snapped out of her daze, her face flushed, and she stammered, "Y-hello!"
Jiang Yumeng smiled charmingly: "Xiaoyu is so pretty, it's nice to meet you!"
Bai Lingyu smiled shyly and said, "Thank you, you're very pretty too."
Seeing the two of them gradually getting into conversation, Gu Fan smiled.
Things seem pretty simple.
The video didn't end until Jiang Yumeng was ready to eat.
After hanging up the phone, Bai Lingyu looked somewhat dejected.
Gu Fan raised an eyebrow and said smugly, "How about it? Isn't your cousin-in-law beautiful?"
"Hmph! It's just... alright!"
Bai Lingyu pouted and said reluctantly.
Of course, only she knows what she's really thinking.
Gu Fan smiled, seeing through everything but not exposing it.
After staying outside for a while, the two received a call from Gu's mother and then went home.
When I got home, my parents and second uncle were chatting, and the house was filled with the rich aroma of food.
"Xiao Fan and Xiao Yu, you're back? Perfect timing! Come and eat!"
Gu Fan nodded, glanced at Bai Lingyu, and said, "Go wash your hands."
Bai Lingyu pouted: "I know, I'm not a child anymore!"
Several elders immediately burst into laughter.
The five people gathered together for a meal, chatting and laughing, and it seemed that no one was putting their negative emotions on the table.
Before leaving, Gu's mother said, "Xiao Fan, Xiao Yu will stay with us for the next few days. Please tidy up the empty room for Xiao Yu later."
Gu Fan was taken aback and subconsciously looked at his second uncle.
The latter smiled and said, "I might be very busy soon, and this child doesn't want to stay at home, so you, as the older brother, will take care of him."
Gu Fan nodded: "Okay, Second Uncle."
He probably guessed what it was; his second uncle was going to the hospital for surgery in the next few days.
When Bai Lingyu heard that she was to stay, she not only did not resist, but was actually quite excited.
After his second uncle left, Gu Fan glanced at Bai Lingyu and said, "Come here and tidy up the room."
"oh!"
Bai Lingyu obediently responded and ran over happily.
The room was tidied up by evening, and Bai Lingyu's luggage was also delivered. From then on, Bai Lingyu stayed at Gu Fan's house.
That evening, after taking a shower, Gu Fan played games on his bed out of sheer boredom.
Of course, it's with his beloved junior!
The two even turned on their microphones and chatted while playing the game.
Gu Fan also told her about what happened today.
"Is Xiaoyu staying at your house? Is she sharing a room with you?"
Jiang Yumeng suddenly asked a question.
"Of course not, I have a guest room at home, don't I?"
Gu Fan smiled.
"What's wrong? Are you jealous?"
"Hmph! Of course I'm jealous! Is that so wrong? If you two were in the same room, I would definitely get angry!"
Although Gu Fan and Bai Lingyu are siblings, Jiang Yumeng is still very possessive. Moreover, as a girl herself, she understands girls' feelings. During the video call, she could sense that Bai Lingyu had a slight hostility towards her.
It's more like she's jealous.
As for who she's jealous of, that's pretty obvious!
Why is my brother so handsome? Even my cousin is smitten!
