Chapter 377 The Closed-Off Young Master 11 Gu Yanqing's eyes lit up slightly as he watched her laughing heartily.
He straightened up, seemingly quite satisfied with the effect he had created.
"That's right now."
He nodded, his gaze fixed intently on her smiling face, and a smile also appeared on his lips.
"Good boy, you're trying so hard to meow like a cat. I'll buy you a cat headband to wear next time."
Zi Xi finally stopped laughing, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with the back of her hand, and teased.
"good."
She meant it as a casual joke, but to her surprise, Gu Yanqing nodded seriously.
Gu Yanqing answered so decisively, as if wearing a cat headband didn't matter to him, which left Zi Xi at a loss for words.
However, she imagined what Gu Yanqing, the aloof and elegant young master of the Gu family, would look like with a fluffy cat headband on his head.
The smile that had been so hard to suppress almost burst out again.
Gu Yanqing had already turned back to the easel, picked up a charcoal pencil, and his gaze moved quickly between her smiling face and the drawing paper as his fingers began to sketch rapidly.
After he finished drawing, he immediately showed it to Zixi. Zixi's approval made the corners of his mouth unconsciously curve wider.
One afternoon, Zixi received an urgent call from her school counselor about a sudden problem with her scholarship application materials, requiring her to come to the school immediately to handle it.
Gu Yanqing was fast asleep, her head resting on the painting, her breathing even and deep.
Zi Xi couldn't bear to wake him, but she was also afraid that he would be anxious if he woke up and couldn't find her, so she hurriedly found a notepad and wrote down that she was going back to school.
She placed the note next to Gu Yanqing's usual palette so that he would see it as soon as he woke up, and then quietly left the studio.
Things took longer than expected, and by the time she returned to the Gu residence, it was already getting dark.
She froze on the spot when she stepped into the studio.
Gu Yanqing sat upright in his usual high-backed chair, his back ramrod straight.
He was still wearing the silk shirt he wore during his lunch break, but on his head he wore a fluffy black cat headband that clashed with his temperament and attire.
The cat ears stood up softly, creating a stark contrast to his tense and displeased expression.
He turned around at the sound of footsteps, his beautiful eyes filled with obvious anger as he stared at her without saying a word.
"Yan Yan?"
"I'm back. Didn't you see the note I left? It's right next to the palette."
Zi Xi tentatively called out to him and stepped forward.
Gu Yanqing's gaze followed her movements, his lips still pursed. When he heard the note, his eyes flickered slightly.
But the anger on his face did not subside.
He pointed to the small table next to the easel, where the note was neatly placed.
"I saw it."
"But I still don't want to."
Gu Yanqing's voice was muffled.
Why don't you want to?
“I really have an urgent matter to attend to, and I also told you I would be back.”
Zi Xi was a little confused, so she patiently explained.
"I can't find you."
"I can't see, I can't hear, I don't want to, I can't."
Gu Yanqing's tone was stubborn, and even carried a hint of barely perceptible grievance.
He kept repeating the word "no," as if to emphasize the seriousness of the matter.
After saying that, he took out his latest customized mobile phone from his pocket, operated it a few times, and then handed it to Zixi.
