Reason brought Gu Shi back to his senses; thank goodness.
He almost lost the first letter Lin Weidong sent back. Wouldn't Lin Qingyu have made him sleep on the sofa?
After putting the letters away, Gu Shi found what he needed.
Take it, open the door, go out, and close the door—a series of smooth, fluid movements.
Without even turning his head back, he went straight downstairs, drove off, and left.
Oh, Gu Shi's car is considered relatively low-key in the neighborhood. There are quite a few cars in the neighborhood, including luxury cars.
So their family is considered a fairly ordinary family in the neighborhood, unlike Jiang Lili and Li Bo.
Gu Shi has been busy training his subordinates these past few days; he doesn't want to keep dealing with all that messy stuff.
That's why I've been exceptionally busy lately.
After finishing his own business, he went to the school and happened to pick up Zhao Xiaobao after school.
"After you finish eating, go home by yourself. Your aunt and I have some things to do. Don't wait for us tonight. Make sure the door is closed."
Gu Shi's voice was as businesslike as ever, unlike how he spoke to Zhao Xiaobao when they were children.
This may be one reason why Zhao Xiaobao is precocious.
He was reading a book and was sitting in the back row. After hearing this, he suddenly looked up and said...
"Uncle, are you going on a date with Aunt?"
Gu Shi coughed and said, "Why should a child worry about so much!"
Zhao Xiaobao closed the book in his hand and said seriously, "Uncle, if you're really going on a date, I suggest you don't wear this outfit. Also, you should at least buy a bouquet of flowers!"
Gu Shi looked at his clothes: a pure black short-sleeved shirt, trendy jeans, and a pair of sneakers.
It seems a bit inappropriate.
Without any hint of shyness, he asked his young nephew, "So, what suggestions do you have?"
After thinking it over carefully, Zhao Xiaobao said seriously, "My suggestion is that you go out tomorrow!"
Gu Shi wasn't in a hurry and waited for him to continue.
"It would be best to have your aunt dress up as well, and then you can prepare flowers in advance to give to her when you arrive. Where do you plan to take your aunt to play?"
A few words from Lin Qingyu stirred Gu Shi's heart. He could already picture Lin Qingyu holding flowers in her hands, wearing a beautiful dress, looking very happy.
He expressed his thoughts somewhat uncertainly: "Forest Park?"
"Sigh!" Zhao Xiaobao was speechless.
"It's only because of your aunt that you're like this, otherwise, who would want to be with you?"
Gu Shi was embarrassed, but Zhao Xiaobao was indeed quite capable, so he said irritably, "Then tell me, which place is the best!"
"Go see a movie! Isn't this what all young people do these days? Uncle, you're only in your twenties, how come you can't even do something this simple?"
The atmosphere inside the small car was quite subtle.
Finally, Gu Shi took Zhao Xiaobao's advice, picked up Lin Qingyu from the restaurant, and went home after having dinner with her.
When they arrived at the residential area, Gu Shi deliberately parked the car quite far away.
Why didn't you drive downstairs today?
Lin Qingyu asked the question, but her actions of getting out of the car did not slow down.
Zhao Xiaobao rolled his eyes behind his back, wondering what had gotten into his uncle.
Gu Shi coughed again, covering his mouth, "The weather is so nice now, it wouldn't be bad to come down and take a walk."
Lin Qingyu said "oh" and stood in front of the car waiting for Gu Shi.
Unexpectedly, he went around to the back of the car, opened the trunk, took out something, and walked over somewhat awkwardly.
This was the first time Lin Qingyu had seen Gu Shi like this, and her eyes widened: "What is this...?"
Gu Shi took out the flowers he had hidden behind his back; they were red roses, suggested by Zhao Xiaobao.
Lin Qingyu stood there dumbfounded.
This was the first time she had ever received flowers.
Seeing that she didn't move, Gu Shi assumed she was frightened and went over to hug her.
"If you don't like it, I'll get you a different one later."
Although they were a married couple, their minds were not as open-minded at that time.
In just a short while, many people on their way home from get off work witnessed this scene.
While they weren't exactly being criticized, the two quickly became the center of attention.
Lin Qingyu's thoughts returned when she smelled the scent of Gu Shi's personal fabric softener.
"I don't dislike it, I like it so much and I'm so happy! You're the first person to give me flowers!"
Lin Qingyu was a bit far from Gu Shi, so of course she heard the whispers around her. Gu Shi was shameless, but she was embarrassed!
They grabbed Gu Shi and ran home, while Zhao Xiaobao had already arrived home without anyone noticing.
That evening, Gu Shi told Lin Qingyu that he wouldn't be going to the restaurant the next day because he had other plans.
Lin Qingyu looked at Gu Shi, who had a mysterious expression on his face. Although she didn't know what his plans were, she still cooperated.
Then, Gu Shi took out the letter that Lin Weidong had sent back.
I reported that I was safe and sound, and also casually wrote a few words about my school. The environment was very nice, and my roommates were very friendly.
Lin Qingyu was relieved. She didn't know how far Lin Weidong could go, but so far things seemed pretty good.
The next morning, Gu Shi put on the clothes Zhao Xiaobao had suggested for him, and his whole demeanor changed.
Lin Qingyu was made to wear a dress by Gu Shi, which Gu Shi had recently bought with her.
She looked at Gu Shi curiously, wondering what was wrong with him today.
Gu Shi remained silent and drove the people directly to the department store.
He pushed Lin Qingyu inside to shop, saying, "Buy whatever you want!"
Seeing his somewhat uncomfortable expression, Lin Qingyu suddenly burst out laughing.
"Are you... on a date with me?"
Even with his thick skin, Gu Shi couldn't help but blush a little at this moment.
