As soon as she finished speaking, the hand that had been loosely placed on his waist suddenly tightened, as if trying to mash her into his flesh.
Gu Qingyan's face flushed slightly, and he couldn't hold it in any longer, so he coughed softly.
Who would have thought that he would one day be choked by smoke...
"Once you say it, you can't go back on your word."
His voice held barely suppressed excitement: "It's the little pig who went back on his word."
Xu Zhaozhao was held so tightly by him that she had no choice but to stub out the cigarette that was only half lit.
"Gu Qingyan, let's play a game."
"As long as we don't get divorced..."
Gu Qingyan closed his eyes, turned his head and smelled the faint fragrance of her hair. "Do whatever you want."
He heard Xu Zhaozhao chuckle softly.
A soft little hand pinched his ear, and a teasing voice came, "You said it, you can't go back on your word, or the little pig will be the one to go back on his word."
Xu Zhaozhao is now like the beautiful Medusa in mythology, who is dangerous yet irresistibly alluring.
Even at the cost of his own life.
Gu Qingyan's Adam's apple bobbed up and down, and the slight swallowing sound was particularly noticeable to Xu Zhaozhao.
What games are you going to play?
Thump.
A soft thud came from the doorway.
This broke the slightly ambiguous atmosphere between the two.
Xu Zhaozhao reflexively pushed Gu Qingyan away and looked towards the door like a startled rabbit.
Xu Zhaozhao exchanged a glance with Gu Qingyan, and before she could even see the emotion in her eyes, she quickly opened the study door.
My gaze shifted downwards and fell upon Gu Yulin's slightly embarrassed face.
"Cough cough."
Gu Yulin hurriedly got up from the ground, turning his head away and not daring to meet Xu Zhaozhao's gaze.
"Mom, what are you doing here? I... I accidentally fell down, and my bottom... it hurts a little..."
As he spoke, his voice grew softer and softer.
They clearly lacked confidence.
This time, Xu Zhaozhao didn't feel sorry for him. Instead, she crossed her arms, leaned against the door of the study, and looked at Gu Yulin with a leisurely air.
Gu Qingyan slowly squeezed his way to the door of the study.
"Huh?!"
Gu Yulin's eyes lit up as if he had seen a savior. "Big rat, what are you doing here?"
The mouth moves faster than the brain.
As soon as she finished speaking, Gu Yulin quickly covered her mouth with her hand, her big almond-shaped eyes wide open, just like Xu Zhaozhao's when she was startled.
"Pfft."
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't hold back any longer and burst out laughing.
Gu Qingyan raised an eyebrow. "What a coincidence, little mouse."
Gu Yulin glared at him, clutching the fabric of her pants, her earlobes and cheeks turning red involuntarily.
Not only were they caught eavesdropping, but they also exposed the big rat!
Gu Yulin was surprised to find that he had also become a "pig teammate".
He lowered his head and touched his nose somewhat guiltily.
"My bottom hurts so much, I'm going to lie down now. Goodbye, Mom! Goodbye, big rat!"
You'd better pray for yourself, you big rat!
Anyway, as long as the two of them don't get divorced, Gu Yulin can be considered to have "gloriously" completed his mission.
His room was next to the study.
After saying that, he scurried into his little burrow like a lively little hamster.
Xu Zhaozhao, leaning against the door of the study, gradually lost her smile and her brows furrowed.
"YuYu knew about us from the very beginning, right?"
Gu Qingyan took off his coat and draped it over her shoulders.
Autumn is approaching, and the nights are a bit chilly. I responded with a faint "Mm."
No wonder Gu Yulin, who had always been on her side, suddenly sided with Gu Qingyan.
No baby wants their parents to get divorced.
She lowered her eyelashes, seemingly lost in thought.
"I……"
"I……"
Xu Zhaozhao had just raised her head when she spoke almost simultaneously with Gu Qingyan, and she saw surprise in his eyes.
She shut up again and pulled his coat tighter around her.
The change in their relationship today was so sudden that Xu Zhaozhao suddenly didn't know how to face Gu Qingyan.
Sometimes I really admire Gu Qingyan. Just a few hours ago, their relationship was very strained, but now he can treat her like nothing happened...
Xu Zhaozhao's mind was in a mess.
There's no such thing as a game; it was just her casual banter to ease the awkwardness.
Don't ask, the answer is I just want to find a hole to crawl into and bury myself.
Ding ding ding...
The ringing of Gu Qingyan's cell phone broke the somewhat awkward situation.
Xu Zhaozhao watched him take his phone out of his pocket, glance at the caller ID, and her brows furrowed slightly.
Alright, her savior has arrived.
He didn't try to avoid it and answered the phone right next to Xu Zhaozhao.
The environment was quiet, and Gou Ge's loud voice pierced right through the phone's receiver.
"Boss, sob sob sob, where are you?"
Gu Qingyan was completely unaffected by Gou Ge's wailing and coldly uttered a single word: "Home."
Although he spoke those words without a trace of emotion, they struck Xu Zhaozhao's heart, making her heart beat faster.
"The chairman just came out of the ICU, and he wants to see you..."
No one else in the Gu family could get through to Gu Qingyan's phone number, so only Brother Gou could be the one to suffer this great injustice.
Before Gu Qingyan could get angry, Gou Ge immediately added, "The chairman said he has some explosive news to tell you."
"I guessed it was about the madam and the young master, that's why I called you!"
Gu Qingyan did not reply.
Gou Ge's words made some sense. He had just asked about this matter last night and was released from the ICU today.
Xu Zhaozhao gestured to him with her eyes, "Go, go quickly."
If she doesn't go soon, Xu Zhaozhao will really bury herself.
"knew."
Gu Qingyan replied and was about to hang up when Gou Ge on the other end of the line, who knew him well, quickly stopped him.
"Wait, wait, wait!"
Gu Qingyan's hand, which was about to move, successfully stopped; he was waiting for Gu Qingyan to spit it out.
"Boss, the chairman specifically instructed...you, you shouldn't wear the pink Lina Belle..."
Towards the end, Gou Ge almost cried.
Chairman, look at these demands! Aren't they all suicidal for a lowly worker like me?!
"Don't worry, he doesn't deserve it."
Gu Qingyan gave a curt reply and quickly hung up the phone.
Looking up at Xu Zhaozhao, who was smiling, I felt like I was dreaming.
"Go and check on the chairman quickly, it would be bad if something happened to him."
Xu Zhaozhao handed the suit jacket to Gu Qingyan.
Although, if something happens to Gu Ru, it might be easier for her to get a divorce.
"wait for me."
Gu Qing reached out and took the clothes from her, his fingertips brushing against hers almost imperceptibly.
Just as Xu Zhaozhao was about to nod, his words followed, "Wait until I get back to play games with you. If you go back on your word, you're a little pig."
Xu Zhaozhao swallowed back the goodbye she was about to say.
Bang.
She slammed the master bedroom door shut with some force, pressed her back against it, and felt her heart pounding wildly.
What kind of game is this?! How about we play a game where you're a pig instead...?
Xu Zhaozhao, this is just a delaying tactic!
What's wrong with you?!
