the next day.
Chi Beibei woke up very early and was about to ride his bike to school, but he found that the bike was a bit difficult to push and there were strange noises. He looked down and saw that both tires were flat.
Squatting down and checking carefully, Chi Beibei found two big holes on the tire, which were obviously caused by human factors.
It should be Chi Mingchu or Xia Shuyu who ordered the action. In Chi Beibei's opinion, Chi Mingchu is more likely to be the one who did it. I just don't know if it has anything to do with the incident on the basketball court yesterday.
Xueqiu was filled with righteous indignation: "This must have been done by Chi Mingchu. No, I'm going to puncture her tires too."
"Forget it, Snowball. This is too dangerous." Chi Beibei advised, "I'll fix the car and put it in the space. She won't be able to puncture the tire again."
Snowball calmed down. It suddenly thought that if Chi Mingchu's tire burst at this time, she would definitely blame the host, which would cause trouble for the host. So it said reluctantly, "Okay."
Seeing that Snowball didn't make a fuss about puncturing Chi Mingchu's tires again, Chi Beibei pushed the bike to the bicycle repair stall at the foot of the mountain to find Master Du, and asked him to help replace the inner and outer tires, and come back to pick them up after school in the evening.
Chi Beibei went to Grandpa Chen’s stall to buy some breakfast, and sat on a public chair at the bus stop to eat while waiting for the bus.
Gu Yanchuan usually skipped the morning reading class and entered the classroom only when the regular class was about to start. However, these past two days he went to school on time and did not leave early.
That morning, Gu Yanchuan was riding his cool Aprilia motorcycle and racing on the streets in the early morning. He was driving straight to the school, but he saw a familiar figure at the bus stop.
He blinked hard, and the car had unknowingly stopped in front of Chi Beibei.
“Are you waiting for the bus?”
Chi Beibei squeezed the crispy thousand-layer cake in her hand helplessly: "Well, the bicycle has a flat tire."
No matter how slow Gu Yanchuan was, he reacted. First, she was inexplicably dumped, then she had to ride a bicycle to school, and now she had to take the bus to school by herself. She only had two sets of clothes under her school uniform and two pairs of shoes. She also had to buy breakfast outside. The little girl must not have an easy life in the Chi family.
It was as if a knife was slashing at his heart again and again. Gu Yanchuan's eyes turned red. He patted his back seat and said, "Get in. I'll take you to school."
Chi Beibei hesitated for a moment, and after meeting his red eyes, she sat on the car as if possessed: "Drive slower." Hearing that, Gu Yanchuan drove slowly.
On the way, Gu Yanchuan was silent, and Chi Beibei didn't dare to speak. She grabbed the hem of his clothes with one hand and held the crispy thousand-layer cake in the other hand, eating it in small bites.
"Beibei, do you want to move out? I have a lot of houses, you can pick any one you want, and I don't need to pay rent."
The wind blew Gu Yanchuan's words to Chi Beibei's ears. Gu Yanchuan at this moment seemed to be the same as he was in his previous life. In both lives, he said that he could let her choose any house to live in.
Chi Beibei asked out loud: "Why?"
Gu Yanchuan said in a muffled voice: "You are not happy in the Chi family."
Behind the distant mountains, the sun slowly rose, and the sunlight gently sprinkled on the boy's slightly tender shoulders, inlaid with layers of halos. Chi Beibei smelled the fresh cedar scent on him, simple and hot.
"Thank you, Gu Yanchuan."
After hearing Chi Beibei's answer, Gu Yanchuan's body stiffened slightly, and his mind frantically searched which property would be most suitable for the little girl to live in.
I don’t know whether she likes a villa, a large flat, a duplex, or an apartment.
By the way, he also wants to move opposite the little girl so that they can go to and from school together.
Without waiting for Gu Yanchuan to speak, Chi Beibei said, "I have already applied for accommodation. If it doesn't work out, I will move out when I turn 18."
Although she can now get cash rewards by completing tasks, she is under 18 years old and does not have full civil capacity to rely on her own labor income as her main source of livelihood. She cannot rent a house by herself.
Although Gu Yanchuan was willing to let her stay, Xia Shuyu and Chi Mingchu obviously would not let her go easily. It would be bad if they got so angry that they threw dirty water on her and Gu Yanchuan and implicated Gu Yanchuan.
Chi Beibei was still thinking that the rewards she received from completing tasks over the past year might allow her to buy a small house in Beijing.
Gu Yanchuan suppressed the disappointment in his heart and said, "If you want to move, you can come to me anytime."
"Yes, of course." Chi Beibei agreed with a smile. Gu Yanchuan is the prince of Gu Real Estate. Maybe he will give her a friendly price if she buys a house from him.
Just as Chi Beibei and Gu Yanchuan were talking, Snowball tore through space and flew over the Chi family's burgundy Bentley, which was specially used to pick up Chi Mingchu.
If there's a flat tire on the road, you won't suspect the host, right?
On a road with no cars on either lane, Snowball seized the opportunity and threw a sharp little stone in front. The Bentley's tire was immediately cut after running over it, and the car body swayed for a while before stopping.
The driver, Xiao Li, got out of the car, swearing at the flat tire, then apologized to Chi Mingchu who was in the car. He then placed a triangular warning plate at the rear of the car, took out the tools, and changed the spare tire while swearing under his breath.
Snowball made a face at Chi Mingchu, who was very angry, and then returned to the space.
Because traveling through time and space consumes a lot of energy, it needs to hibernate in time. After adjusting the ratio of the time flow rate inside and outside the space, the snowball soon fell into a deep sleep.
Before it lost consciousness, it made a wish, hoping that the host's future tasks could be completed smoothly, so that it could travel freely through time and space.
Chi Beibei and Gu Yanchuan soon arrived at the school gate. The security guard was standing at the school gate with a smile on his face. Everyone entered the school by pushing their bikes. Chi Beibei was embarrassed to let Gu Yanchuan drive her in directly, so she tugged at the hem of his clothes and whispered softly in his ear, "Stop here." Gu Yanchuan stopped immediately.
After Chi Beibei got off the car, she felt a force pulling her over. Her head was spinning and her shoulders were tightly gripped by a pair of iron-like hands. Chi Beibei screamed in fear.
Seeing this, Gu Yanchuan didn't even park the car and directly put Chi Beibei behind him with one hand and pushed Ji Youli away with the other hand.
Ji Youli staggered after being pushed. He suddenly felt that he had lost face. His chest rose and fell rapidly with anger. Looking at Chi Beibei who was protected by Gu Yanchuan, he shouted angrily: "Chi Beibei, have you been with Gu Yanchuan for a long time?"
Without waiting for Chi Beibei to answer, Ji Youli angrily scolded: "You shameless woman."
