Hearing her son's accusation, Xu Zhaozhao silently dropped the shrimp meat she had just picked up back into the bowl.
She was eating so deliciously that she annoyed her son.
Gu Yulin put down her chopsticks and looked at Gu Qingyan with a hint of resentment.
This man took away his right to pick up food!
Thinking it over, Gu Yulin moved to the front of the chair, blocking their way to pick up food with his body.
I won't let him serve food to his mother!
Gu Qingyan glanced at him but didn't say anything, and the atmosphere in the restaurant suddenly became subtle.
Gu Yulin was also secretly watching Gu Qingyan's actions.
He picked up a shrimp from the table and slowly peeled it, even removing the vein. It was plump and white.
Hmph! He even wanted to serve food to his mom! He can peel this shrimp too!
Thinking this, Gu Yulin straightened his back even more, blocking the "passage" between the two of them even more completely.
Sure enough, his arm came across again, and Gu Yulin didn't give way at all.
But the arm didn't try to cross over; instead, it stopped right in front of him.
Gu Yulin stared blankly at the plump, white shrimp that had been placed in his bowl, his mind completely blank.
"Eat."
Gu Qingyan ignored his expression, simply tossed the shrimp into his bowl, and picked up another one to peel.
You think you can bribe him with just a shrimp?
Gu Yulin turned her head slightly, looking quite arrogant, "I won't be bribed by you."
As soon as he finished speaking, another plump, white shrimp was placed into his bowl.
One shrimp couldn't bribe him, but two shrimp... well, he might consider it.
Xu Zhaozhao, who was standing to the side, was amused by his astonished expression.
It's so hard to suppress laughter while eating.
He gently patted Yu Yu's little shoulder and said, "Eat up, eat up. How many days a year do you get to eat shrimp that he peels?"
Gu Yulin thought about it for a moment.
That makes sense.
He then picked up his chopsticks and began eating the shrimp in his bowl.
It's delicious.
Although there wasn't much emotional fluctuation on Gu Yulin's face, he silently moved his body back, making way for the "passage" he had just passed.
So another strange yet heartwarming scene unfolded in the restaurant—one person picking up food while two people ate.
Xu Zhaozhao couldn't eat anymore, so she acted spoiled and stuffed all the food back into Gu Qingyan's bowl.
He didn't mind at all and ate it all, bite by bite.
Xu Zhaozhao swore that this was the meal she had seen Gu Qingyan eat the most in all the time she had been here since she transmigrated.
Although she couldn't eat any of it (lol)...
After finishing her meal, Xu Zhaozhao, as always, lay sprawled on the sofa in the living room.
Gu Yulin made an excuse to do his homework and went back to his room, while Gu Qingyan was also called away by a phone call.
At least today, she is the most idle one in the family.
Xu Zhaozhao took out her phone. The clock struck one in the afternoon, and she finally saw the red dot on WeChat.
It was a message that Sister Yan sent her this morning.
Yan Jie: Dear Zhao Jie, are you awake?
Sister Yan: I'm happy to inform you that filming is off today!! Go catch up on your sleep~
Sister Yan: I don't know the specific reason either, just listen to the director.
Hush: Thanks for the invitation, just got up =-=
It turns out that Sister Yan had already notified her in the morning, but she just didn't see the message.
Xu Zhaozhao's gaze lingered on the last message Yan Jie sent, and she paused for a moment.
Sister Yan didn't know the reason, but Gu Qingyan just told her that Jian Lan was unavailable.
Just as she was thinking this, she felt a dent in the space beside her, which brought her back to reality.
The familiar pink pajamas caught her eye. Gu Qingyan sat down next to her, holding a strawberry sundae in his hand.
Sure enough, Xu Zhaozhao's gaze soon automatically fell on the strawberry sundae.
He opened the strawberry sundae and handed it to Xu Zhaozhao, who happily ate it with a small spoon.
"What were you thinking about just now?" he asked.
"I'm thinking about things on set."
She scooped up a mouthful of sundae and put it in her mouth, her words slightly slurred, "Why is Jian Lan busy? Did she oversleep like us?"
The second half of the sentence was a joke.
Gu Qingyan answered the first half of her sentence seriously, "She's going to stay in the ICU today, and Gu Ru went in again."
His tone was flat, as if he were recounting something insignificant.
If this matter concerning the Gu family patriarch were to be exposed, the entire business world would be shaken.
Xu Zhaozhao paused in digging at the sundae.
My gaze fell on the door of the room next to the study on the second floor.
Fish probably doesn't know.
She lowered her eyes and decided to skip the topic.
I scooped up a spoonful of sundae and put it in my mouth. The cool, refreshing feeling made my whole body feel relaxed.
Xu Zhaozhao felt that Gu Qingyan was a really strange person.
He didn't eat any himself, but watched her eat the entire sundae.
Xu Zhaozhao threw the sundae she had finished eating into the trash can, but she didn't actually roll her eyes at him.
I turned to him and asked, "Are you going to work today?"
"No."
He answered decisively, adding, "I'm not going tomorrow either; I'm spending my birthday with Yu Yu."
How could that be?
Today is the last day of the game.
Going to work? Haha.
Xu Zhaozhao was slightly surprised, and raised her voice a little, "You still remember Yu Yu's birthday?!"
Gu Qingyan's face darkened instantly.
He's not old enough to forget his wife and son's birthdays yet, is he?
"You ignored us for the first four years..."
Xu Zhaozhao lowered her head when she said this, otherwise she would have burst out laughing.
But her words really worked; before, he would just throw money at you...
His expression softened somewhat.
"Okay."
Xu Zhaozhao looked up and met his eyes. His thin lips moved slightly. "Then this year, I'll ask more questions and seek more advice."
She raised an eyebrow slightly. "What do you mean by 'asking more questions'?"
Gu Qingyan also looked away and glanced at Gu Yulin's room. "Call your son."
"I'll take you guys out to have some fun."
Although Xu Zhaozhao has been to many places on variety shows, she is bound to be somewhat reserved when she does so because it's a TV program.
Come to think of it, she hasn't really had much fun since she came into this world.
"Okay, okay."
Xu Zhaozhao said "good" three times in a row, and you could tell how excited she was.
When they went to call Gu Yulin, although he was somewhat reluctant to go out with Gu Qingyan, he just wanted to stay with his mother...
But seeing Xu Zhaozhao's bright eyes, he nodded in agreement.
Xu Zhaozhao, like a happy rabbit, ran to the dressing room to pick out clothes.
She has so many clothes, some of which Gu Qingyan sends her regularly, and others are sent by brands.
When it's time to go out and have fun, I've given her so many choices that I'm overwhelmed.
Even after Gu Qingyan, dressed neatly, entered the dressing room, she still hadn't picked out a single outfit she liked.
Xu Zhaozhao looked up at him.
Since it wasn't a serious business day, he wasn't wearing a black suit, but rather a black hoodie and casual pants.
Such a simple outfit, yet it exudes the feel of an international high-end brand.
Xu Zhaozhao stuck out her tongue.
This guy is way too handsome.
