The two were whispering their secret plot in the room, completely unaware of Xu Zhaozhao's presence as she slept soundly in her own room.
clatter.
After hearing this, Gu Yulin clapped his hands, his eyes shining.
Realizing she had been making her emotions too obvious, she tried to hide them, resting her chin on her hand as if deep in thought.
"This matter..."
Gu Qingyan watched him act and cooperated fully, nodding, "Yes, about this matter."
"oops!"
Gu Yulin frowned, looking up at the ceiling. "This is something that would be difficult to handle without ten Ultramen..."
"I'll give you eleven."
Gu Qingyan picked up on her words almost immediately.
Gu Yulin's lips twitched.
"Okay, I promise you. Just wait for my good news."
QQ QQ QQ.
Before the two could continue their conversation, there was a knock on the door, and they were both taken aback.
"Baby, the nanny said you haven't had dinner yet."
Xu Zhaozhao's voice came from outside the door, sounding a bit sleepy, "Would you like to come down for dinner with Mom?"
The two looked at each other in bewilderment.
what to do?
The plan hasn't been implemented yet. If Xu Zhaozhao comes in now, she will definitely "kick Gu Qingyan out".
well.
Gu Qingyan is really disappointing.
Despite his complaints, Gu Yulin was still very proactive in offering him advice and suggestions.
She held up a finger and pointed to the wardrobe behind him, lowering her voice and saying uncertainly, "How about... you hide inside the wardrobe?"
Gu Qingyan: ...
Aren't lovers usually the ones hidden in closets?
Gu Qingyan frowned, silently expressing his resistance.
"Baby? Are you in there?"
Xu Zhaozhao didn't get a response from Gu Yulin, so she knocked on the door again, this time much louder.
Gu Yulin became anxious.
Pushing Gu Qingyan towards the wardrobe, she shouted, "Hide quickly, hide quickly!"
"If your mom finds out, not even a hundred Ultraman could save you!"
Thump!
With a muffled thud, Xu Zhaozhao unlocked the door with her key.
"Baby!?"
She ran to Gu Yulin, squatted down to check on him, and asked, "How did you fall?"
Gu Yulin lay on the floor next to the bed, with the wardrobe just two steps away.
He frowned, holding the cotton doll in one arm and covering his head with the other, snuggling into Xu Zhaozhao's arms.
"pain……"
He was just an innocent child who rolled off the edge of the bed while sleeping.
Xu Zhaozhao anxiously pulled him into her arms, parted his hair, and checked his injuries.
I was relieved to find that there was no swelling.
Gu Yulin kept his head buried in her arms, so Xu Zhaozhao naturally couldn't see the clarity in his eyes.
"It's okay, baby."
Gu Yulin finally revealed his face, clutching Xu Zhaozhao's sleeve, hiding a hint of nervousness that he himself didn't realize.
"Mom, I'm hungry, shall we go eat?"
Inner monologue: Hurry up, Mom! If we don't leave soon, Gu Qingyan will suffocate in the closet.
Don't ask Gu Yulin how he knew.
He knew the closet in the house was airtight, and he tried going inside and turning his face red just to attract his mother's attention.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't bear to refuse him, "Okay."
After saying that, she took his little hand and walked outside.
Click.
After the door was locked, Gu Qingyan opened the wardrobe door and came out.
He overheard their entire conversation from inside the wardrobe.
It's very novel.
I experienced what it's like to be a "lover".
After standing there for a moment and thinking it over, Gu Qingyan decided to move to the dressing room.
Firstly, no one would discover him there for the time being; secondly... he needed to change into a black suit to see his wife.
It's because his wife likes him wearing black suits.
...
"Mom, I want to watch cartoons."
Gu Yulin took the initiative to speak right after dinner.
“Okay, Mom will watch it with you.” Xu Zhaozhao agreed without thinking.
She swept up all the mainstream animated films.
Who would have thought she'd have a day when she'd be without any anime to watch...
"Mom, I want to watch 'Black Cat Detective'."
Gu Yulin suddenly suggested.
To make it more plausible, he added, "Xiao Kai recommended it to me; he said it was very good."
Xu Zhaozhao nodded without asking any further questions. She then searched for "Black Cat Detective" in the search bar and started playing it.
"Black Cat Detective" is actually quite short.
"Mommy! Mommy!"
But within two minutes, Gu Yulin shrank into her arms in fear.
Xu Zhaozhao looked up and saw several rats appear.
"The rats... they look like the rats in the basement, I'm scared... I'm not watching anymore!"
As he spoke, Gu Yulin buried his head in her arms again.
Xu Zhaozhao stroked his head to comfort him, "Don't be afraid, baby. Are there rats in the basement?"
"Um!"
Gu Yulin nodded firmly, "Mom, don't go! Rats, they're huge, they'll bite!"
His muffled voice came through.
Xu Zhaozhao smiled and turned off the cartoon on the TV.
"Then let's go back to the room, baby fish."
Xu Zhaozhao patted his back, her words revealing no emotion, "Mom's going to catch mice."
"good."
Gu Yulin almost couldn't contain his cheers.
She hurriedly pulled away from Xu Zhaozhao's embrace, lowered her head, and twisted her fingers. "Mom, be careful. I'm waiting for your good news!"
Without waiting for Xu Zhaozhao's reply, he put on his little slippers and ran upstairs.
They seem genuinely frightened by that basement rat.
After Gu Yulin returned to his room and closed the door, he picked up his tablet and sent a message to Gu Qingyan.
A little fish: Okay, Mom will be there in three minutes!
They replied instantly too.
Moon gazing: ?
Moon Viewing: How did you convince her?
A little fish: I told my mom there was a big rat in the basement, so she went down to catch it.
Moon Gazing: Then you're the little mouse.
?
I can't laugh at all.
A little fish: I'm helping you!! [Question]
Looking at his WeChat name, the more I looked at it, the more irritating it became.
He deserved to be blocked by his mother!
Gu Yulin immediately changed his nickname to "Gu the Big Rat".
Um.
This kind of note looks much better.
There was no further reply, and Gu Yulin guessed that Xu Zhaozhao had probably gone there.
He let out a deep sigh.
Gu Qingyan asked him to help him meet with his mother.
That's right, the great movie star Gu has now fallen so low that he can't even see his wife anymore.
Gu Yulin agreed and came up with the idea of a "big rat," a method that seemed completely out of line with his intelligence.
Why didn't he choose the study as the location for the "negotiation"?
How could he possibly eavesdrop in the basement?
Her little hands gripped the edge of the tablet, and she couldn't concentrate on taking a bath.
Will Mom agree not to divorce him? Does he still have a family...?
Big rat, you better behave yourself!
...
The elevator numbers dropped to "-1".
bite.
The elevator doors opened.
Xu Zhaozhao took a deep breath and stepped out of the elevator.
