Chapter 172 He Can Let Bygones Be Bygones
Our Snowball was so excited that he almost didn't sleep the whole night. His little head kept thinking that his space would be filled with all kinds of fruits and vegetables, which he would never be able to eat up.
When Chi Beibei woke up, she saw the cute little Snowball squatting beside the pillow, staring at her with his round little eyes without blinking.
Knowing that the little guy couldn’t wait any longer, Chi Beibei quickly got up, washed, changed clothes, and took it to go shopping.
"Snowball, let's go!"
"yeah"
Chi Beibei and Xueqiu spent a whole day in the flower and tree market, buying all kinds of fruit saplings and vegetable seeds. Tools were naturally indispensable, including hoes, shovels, rakes, scissors, rubber gloves, etc.
On Sunday, Chi Beibei and Xueqiu, a mouse, were busy planting trees and vegetables in the space.
Chi Beibei was responsible for digging the hole, while Snowball used his short legs to spread the seeds.
Chi Beibei’s physical strength was full and he didn’t feel tired at all, but he made our poor Snowball very tired.
......
Different from the joyful and harmonious scene in the space, the already dark and gloomy atmosphere in the Xiao family's main residence became even more terrifying and creepy. The servants didn't even dare to breathe loudly, for fear of attracting the attention of Mr. Xiao.
Mr. Xiao was sitting in his wheelchair as usual, staring into the distance in a trance in front of the floor-to-ceiling window, with an lingering haze lingering between his brows.
Ah Bin stood behind him and reported the information he had collected over the past two days: "Second Master, I went to investigate and found that Miss Chi Beibei and Master Gu were indeed quite close."
After a pause, Abin said, "They have eaten out a few times, walked the dog together in the Spring Court Villa District, and went to the amusement park some time ago."
Seeing that Mr. Xiao's face was becoming more and more frightening, Ah Bin quickly explained, "But the young lady of the Sheng family and the young master of the Xie family also went there. The four of them were playing together in the amusement park."
Mr. Xiao's expression seemed to ease a little, and he asked in a deep voice, "Did they do anything intimate?"
Mr. Xiao knew that Chi Beibei and Gu Yanchuan had been involved in a scandal, and he thought that the eldest daughter of the Chi family was deliberately slandering her online. Later, when she asked Gu Yanchuan to buy a house, he also thought that they were just friends.
He never expected that Gu Yanchuan would actually like Chi Beibei. What if... what if she also likes Gu Yanchuan?
Ah Bin was also a little unsure: "Miss Chi Beibei has ridden in Mr. Gu's car several times and has touched Mr. Gu's hair. Mr. Gu once carried Miss Chi Beibei across the Jishuitan, but at that time many boys volunteered to carry their female classmates across. As for more intimate actions, no one noticed."
Things like riding in a car and touching heads had already appeared in the previous post controversy, and at the time everyone thought it was just a misunderstanding.
After all, if Mr. Gu and Miss Chi Beibei really had feelings for each other at that time, why would the Chi family later take the initiative to propose a marriage to the Xiao family? Wouldn't this offend both the Gu and Xiao families at once?
There were no hugging or kissing scenes, but at least it proves that Mr. Xiao still has a chance.
Although it was confirmed that Miss Chi Beibei and Mr. Gu were not dating, Abin did not feel relieved.
He was almost going crazy with anxiety. His second master finally showed interest in women, but here came the covetous Mr. Gu!
Young Master Gu is the crown prince of the Gu family, and there is no way to get rid of him so easily.
He is also the classmate of Miss Chi Beibei. With such close proximity, he is in a good position to get the upper hand. He is afraid that Mr. Gu will snatch Miss Chi Beibei away from him one day.
"Second Master, I think it should be Young Master Gu who is pursuing Miss Chi Beibei. Maybe Miss Chi Beibei only regards him as a friend."
Who knows if the second master will end up alone if he misses Miss Chi Beibei? Ah Bin will naturally try every means to bring them together.
Having been single for more than 20 years, even if he has not eaten pork, he has at least seen pigs run. Ah Bin racked his brains to give advice to Second Master Xiao: "Second Master, why don't you invite Miss Chi Beibei out to have a meal and watch a movie together to cultivate your relationship?"
"No, the final exam is less than two weeks away, and I don't want to affect her review."
Abin is also in a difficult situation. Miss Chi Beibei is going to take the college entrance examination next year. Now is indeed not a good time to talk about love, but Mr. Gu has been waiting by the side to take advantage of the opportunity!
If the second master doesn't keep an eye on her, what if Miss Chi Beibei is deceived by Mr. Gu?
Just as he was about to persuade her a little more, Mr. Xiao continued, "I had originally planned to wait until she finished the college entrance examination before discussing the engagement. It seems that we should settle it as soon as possible."
"Abin, prepare a generous gift. After the final exams are over, we will go to Chi's house to find her."
"Okay, Second Master!" Abin immediately went to search Second Master Xiao's private vault.
Mr. Xiao sat alone in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. He was selfish and dark by nature, but he just couldn't bear to be cruel to her. As long as she personally agreed to their marriage that day, he would let bygones be bygones.
......
Chi Beibei didn't know that Mr. Xiao was planning to propose marriage after the final exams. Even if she knew, she would just feel a little confused.
After a day of farming, she and Snowball slept particularly soundly.
Snowball's cute little snoring is getting louder and louder.
After waking up, she was not in a hurry to leave the space, but walked out of the small house to take a look at the fruit trees and vegetables she had just planted.
"Wow!" Chi Beibei couldn't help but exclaim.
I saw that the vegetables planted yesterday have sprouted, and the saplings have also grown a lot bigger. At this growth rate, it won’t be long before they can be harvested.
Snowball patrolled its territory with Paw on his back: "How is it? Just say that you don't need the host to worry about you?"
"You really don't have to worry about it." Chi Beibei's eyes and eyebrows were all filled with smiles. Things would not go bad if kept in the space, and there would be plenty of food in the future.
When these fruits and vegetables are ripe, they can be used to help Aunt Lin and Aunt Sheng to regulate their bodies.
Snowball is also very happy. It can plant whatever it wants to eat in the future. That's great.
All the aches and pains all over my body seemed to have disappeared.
......
Chi Beibei and Xueqiu set off for school happily, but saw a sickly villain in the classroom.
He looked haggard, with drooping eyebrows, dry lips, and his eyes were not as bright as usual.
"Yanchuan, what's wrong with you?" Chi Beibei put her soft hand on his forehead.
Fortunately, I don’t have a fever.
Gu Yanchuan sniffed: "I just have a cold."
"Have you asked your family doctor to check you out?" Chi Beibei asked casually. She didn't think Gu Yanchuan was a person who was afraid of seeing a doctor, but she unexpectedly saw Gu Yanchuan's evasive expression.
"Look, I saw it." He even stuttered when he spoke.
Chi Beibei frowned: "Why don't you see a doctor?"
Knowing that the little girl had seen through his lie, Gu Yanchuan said aggrievedly: "I... I'm afraid of injections."
He whispered, "The injection hurts."
