Chapter 26 The pinned "wife" is particularly obvious
Xu Chi ate all the dishes with relish. His eyes became brighter and brighter. After swallowing, he looked at the person opposite him and said, "Brother Jiang Ran, did you make all these?"
Xiao Jiangran smiled when he heard this and looked at the curly-haired boy who was eating voraciously: "Yeah, how's it going?"
"Good... slurp." Xu Chi stuffed another shrimp into his mouth, his words mumbling, "You're really... good... amazing."
After saying that, he raised his hand and gave someone a thumbs up.
Xiao Jiangran was amused by the young boy in front of him. The light reflected on Xiao Jiangran's glasses, turning into a small smile in his eyes. "It's delicious. Eat more. I'll make it for you next time."
"Okay... okay." He had clearly finished what was in his mouth, but Xu Chi didn't understand why he was still unable to speak clearly.
He lowered his head and continued to eat the rice in the bowl.

Qin Mu returned home and looked at the empty house, feeling a little sad. Aunt Zhang had received the news that Qin Mu would not be coming back for dinner, so she filled the refrigerator with fruits and ingredients needed for tomorrow morning and went back to rest.
This was the first time that the little villain went on a long journey. To be honest, Qin Mu felt very uncomfortable. He took off his coat and hung it up, then walked to the sofa and lay down, nestling in the place where the little villain usually lay.
I didn't have this feeling when I was on a business trip. I just wanted to get the project as soon as possible, complete the work, and expand the company. It would be much easier for Gu Chuyue to take over Gu's family in the future.
But he didn't seem to consider whether that clingy guy would be sad, he should have considered that...
Country Y
Gu Chuyue had just arrived at the hotel after getting off the plane. After saying hello to his teacher and saying that he wanted to rest, he went back to his room. Huo Yuan saw that his little apprentice was indeed listless today and was afraid that it would affect the state of the exchange meeting, so he gave him a few words of advice and told him to go and rest quickly.
Gu Chuyue wasn't feeling unwell, he was just away from Qin Mu. From morning till now, he hadn't seen his brother for a whole day.
I miss my brother.
He wanted to call his brother.
But no, it’s not possible. It’s already past four in the afternoon here, and it’s already eleven at night in China. It will disturb my brother.
When he opened WeChat, the two big words "Wife" at the top were particularly prominent. Gu Chuyue felt happy when he saw it, and his forehead relaxed.
Pressing the voice button, the boy's slightly sweet voice echoed in the quiet room.
Little Ancestor: [Brother~ I'm already at the hotel. ]
Little Ancestor: [I miss my brother so much.]
Little Ancestor: [I miss my brother’s bed at home too.]
Little Ancestor: [Brother, do you miss me? ]
After sending the voice message, I felt it was not enough, so I found another emoticon package that looked pitiful.
Little Ancestor: [Puppy crying jpg.]
Gu Chuyue was just about to continue sending voice messages when he saw his brother calling him via video. He answered the call immediately, but he didn't see his brother's face at first. His fair and pink collarbone caught his eye first, and Gu Chuyue's breathing stopped.
Qin Mu, the other half, heard the sound of the video call being answered and took off the handkerchief from his head. There were still water droplets on the tips of his hair. He was wearing the same pajamas as Gu Chuyue, which gave him a cool and homely feeling.
Suppressing the itch in his throat, Gu Chuyue said: "Brother~Have you just finished taking a shower?"
The person on the phone nodded nonchalantly, "Are you adjusting to Country Y?"
Hearing this, Gu Chuyue was like a puppy with drooping ears. He touched the charming and beautiful face in the video with his index finger and said, "I'm not used to it. It's cold here, and there's no brother to tie my scarf. There's no brother to pick up food for me when I eat. Most importantly, there's no brother to sleep in my quilt at night~"
"Gu Chuyue."
Qin Mu's voice was cold, and it seemed that he didn't miss the little villain at all. The emptiness he felt when he got home was as if he had hidden his tail long ago, not wanting anyone except himself to see it.
Gu Chuyue uttered a nasal "hmm" in grievance, "Brother, can you call me more intimately? Don't call me 'Gu Chuyue' in such a cold way. I feel uncomfortable." He wanted his brother to compensate him, but he was abroad now. Thinking of the reason for coming here, he couldn't help frowning.
He wanted to finish things here as soon as possible and go back to see his brother.
He's really spoiled, throwing a tantrum over the smallest of things. Qin Mu pulled a little further away from the desk, crossed his legs, and watched the villain in the video. His long legs couldn't be completely covered by his pants because of his movements, and his ankles were exposed as he moved.
Qin Mu smiled gently, his voice teasing, "Is this what's bothering you? I just chatted with your teacher for a while. After the video call, go eat. Why didn't you eat properly on the plane at noon, huh? Gu Chuyue?"
Not hearing what he wanted to hear, Gu Chuyue turned his head away without answering.
Qin Mu stopped nagging the little villain because of his little temper.
"I thought about it, so do your best at the exchange meeting and come back soon." This little villain is lively and energetic, different from the ones in the book and the stray puppy I just met. "Have fun over there. It won't be long before we come back, and it will be our Chu Yue's eighteenth birthday. He will be an adult too."
Having said that, Qin Mu couldn't help but sigh. At the age of eighteen, the little villain is now positive, handsome and talented. He, Qin Mu, is really amazing. He raised the little villain very well. As expected, whether in the real world or in the world of books, he is very good at raising children.
The two of them hadn't been chatting for long when Gu Chuyue called. Qin Mu hadn't intended to answer it, but he was worried that it was something important and didn't want to delay it, so he took the initiative to hang up the phone and let the other person finish the call so that he could eat and rest.
The call was from Dong Mingyu, the grandson of the housekeeper Dong Wei. He was a few years older than Gu Chuyue. He was loyal to the Gu family and was also one of the persons in charge of the Gu Group in Country Y.
It was inevitable that Gu Chuyue would take over the Gu family. Old Master Gu had been making preparations since the moment he came back. It was not that he blindly trusted his grandson.
But people who have experienced many hardships can see clearly what kind of person Gu Chuyue is.
After wandering around and experiencing miserable things, he was able to remain calm and composed when he came back, without being arrogant or impatient.
Although he relies on the kid from the Qin family, he has his own ambitions and plans in his eyes.
Such people are born leaders.
If Gu Chuyue wants to quickly gain a foothold in the Gu family, he must come to Country Y. The Gu family has always had military transactions with the royal family of Country Y, including firearms.
This time, due to the turmoil in the royal family of Country Y, problems arose in the original supply chain and goods could not be settled. The royal family of Country Y was angry and had detained Li Jiangning, who was in charge together with Dong Mingyu.
The Gu family was in the wrong, and besides, they were on the other party's territory, so even a force like the Gu family would not be in a position to directly break off relations with the other party.
When the top management of Gu Group received the news, they were faced with this dilemma and there was really no good solution. If Gu Chuyue wanted to take over Gu Group, he had to take on this burden and do it well.
After receiving the information compiled by Dong Mingyu, Gu Chuyue asked someone to check the internal relationships within the royal family and the recent transactions of the relevant persons in charge of the Gu family.
The usually stable supply chain suddenly ran into problems.
Then came the royal family's fierce questioning.
Is it a transaction conflict or is there another purpose?
