Gu Wei was silent for a while before he spoke: "It's me, sorry..."
Yu Rou suddenly asked, "Caramel milk tea?"
A light flashed in Gu Wei's eyes. He didn't expect that she could recognize his voice.
A seed of joy took root in his heart, broke through the soil and grew into tender green shoots, growing rapidly against the wind.
Gu Wei: "Yeah."
"It's really you. What's wrong? Is there something you want to talk to me about?" Yu Rou laughed.
Gu Wei suddenly felt a little depressed again. He wanted to ask her why she didn't come today, who the man who had just spoken was, and where she was now, but these questions were too presumptuous. He realized that they were not actually familiar with each other.
"It's okay." Gu Wei's voice was low and sounded a little shy.
Yu Rou smiled and said, "Are you really okay?"
Seeing that she had no intention of lowering her voice or being uncomfortable, Gu Wei felt a little relieved and ashamed of his own little thoughts.
But he didn't know what to say next. What was he calling about? Was he going to ask those questions? Would that be bad, and make her feel upset...
Gu Wei looked down at his own shadow on the ground and finally thought of what he wanted to say. "My name is Gu Wei, Gu for Gu Nian, Wei for Violation."
His serious tone was so cute that it was a little unfair. Yu Rou could imagine his current expression, which must be very tempting.
"Well, Gu Wei, hello." Yu Rou raised the last part of her voice with a smile, which touched Gu Wei's heartstrings.
Gu Wei's mind was buzzing. He held his phone tightly. "I'm 21 years old and a junior at xx University..."
Yu Rou: "Yeah, I know."
Gu Wei was stunned: "You know?"
"Yeah, you're off work, right?" Yu Rou smiled and changed the subject.
Gu Wei: "Well...why didn't you come today?"
Yu Rou had to admit that she was a little itchy because of him. Such a sweet little puppy must be delicious.
"You can't drink caramel milk tea every day, you'll get tired of it."
…
Jiang Chi, who had been listening for a long time, finally couldn't stand it anymore. Yu Rou's current expression made him feel very uncomfortable, so he reached out and knocked on the cabinet.
Yu Rou turned around and glanced at Jiang Chi who was standing behind her. Jiang Chi was looking at her with a gloomy expression.
Jiang Chi looked at her with a warning look, and his lips moved. Although no sound came out, Yu Rou understood what he said: "Who is it?"
Yu Rou smiled and said to Gu Wei, "I have something to do. Please wait for me and I will call you back later, okay?"
Jiang Chi looked at Yu Rou coldly. The question he had just asked her was directly ignored by her, which made him a little unhappy.
After hanging up the phone, Yu Rou put the phone aside and bent down to cover Jiang Cheng with the quilt. Jiang Cheng had fallen asleep. He woke up once during the day. This was why Yu Rou did not go out today and stayed at home to take care of Jiang Cheng. She also told Jiang Cheng that she wanted to find Gu Wei to come back. Although Jiang Cheng was surprised, he quickly agreed.
Perhaps because he knew that he didn't have much time left, Jiang Cheng supported Yu Rou's statement that she wanted to bring Gu Wei back to the Jiang family. After all, Gu Wei, like Jiang Chi, was his son. However, for some reason, Jiang Cheng found Jiang Chi so early, but only asked his lawyer to find Gu Wei after his death.
The original owner only found out that Jiang Cheng had an illegitimate child when she accidentally heard him making a phone call. Jiang Chi didn't know about this.
Seeing that Yu Rou still ignored him, Jiang Chi had no choice but to ask again, "I heard that my dad woke up during the day?"
"Yeah." Yu Rou stood up and looked down at her phone without even looking up at him. Her attitude was very cold.
Jiang Chi is very busy every day because he has to take over Jiang's company, and overtime is the norm. But these few days, he has returned from the company, but Yu Rou has not returned home yet.
Hearing the way she spoke on the phone just now, Jiang Chi was almost certain that the person calling was a man.
Jiang Chi's face looked ugly, with sarcasm in his eyes. No wonder this woman suddenly stopped pestering him. It turned out that she had a new target.
Jiang Chi said indifferently: "Did my dad say anything when he woke up?"
Yu Rou: "I don't want to tell you."
She was about to leave after she finished speaking, looking like she had nothing to say to him.
Jiang Chi grabbed her and blurted out, "Who called just now?"
Yu Rou raised her eyebrows and said calmly, "Does it have anything to do with you? Since when did you start caring about my private affairs?"
Jiang Chi said angrily: "My father is still alive. If I find out that you are messing around outside, I will not let you go."
Yu Rou smiled coldly, shook off his hand, and stared into his eyes, "Then may I ask, why won't you let me go?"
There was no longer the previous attachment in her eyes, as if the woman who had expressed her love to him a few days ago was just an illusion.
Jiang Chi: “…”
"Jiang Chi, I'm the mistress of this house. You have no right to interfere with me. Besides, I'm your elder after all. You'd better respect me." Yu Rou reached out and placed her hand on his head to ruffle his hair. Under Jiang Chi's angry glare, she smiled and said, "Be good. I'll go back to my room first."
Jiang Chi was about to push Yu Rou away, but she turned around and dodged him, pretending to say, "Tsk tsk, your dad woke up today and I spoke well of you. It's really a bad omen. Next time, I will tell your dad that you don't respect me as your stepmother and you hit me."
Jiang Chi suddenly showed a wary look, looked her up and down, and said, "Who are you?"
Yu Rou was a little surprised, but said calmly: "How should I answer this? I have many identities."
Jiang Chi frowned and looked at her suspiciously.
"I am both your ex-girlfriend and your stepmother... But, to be honest, I prefer the second identity now. What about you?" Yu Rou said with a smile.
