Chapter 415 Slip of the Tongue



"Fine, fine." She glanced furtively at the man, who was standing with his hands on his hips, his anger blazing.

The files were scattered haphazardly on the desktop.

Gu Chengyi gritted his teeth and said, "Don't expect me to help you next time!"

Chen Jiawen gently closed the door, thinking to himself, "Our CEO Gu is such a traitor. He handed the company over to his son, who then acts like a substitute, only stepping in when needed."

On the other side, Gu Nian did not go directly to the airport after exiting the elevator, but instead left her suitcase at the hotel reception.

I put on a mask and stood by the roadside to flag down a taxi.

"It's still early, let's bring Miaomiao some gifts."

...

Country M enjoys clear skies, while China is shrouded in darkness.

Luo Shimiao emerged from the bathroom, still damp, and collapsed onto the bed in an unseemly manner.

"I'm exhausted. My sister-in-law is still as strict as ever."

Xiao Lü: "Today's rehearsal went very well. Your hard work these past few days has paid off."

She sighed and said, "Is Xiao Niannian really not coming back? This is your first birthday together."

She snorted coldly: "If he doesn't want to come back, he doesn't want to come back. I have so many people to celebrate birthdays with. One more or one less won't make a difference."

"You're still so stubborn, even though you care a lot."

"Get out of here, I want to sleep, don't bother me!"

"Okay." Little Green flew to the bedside and turned off the light.

What Luo Shimiao didn't know was that the person she cared about was getting closer and closer to her as time went by.

...

The next day, around 1 p.m.

Luo Shimiao sat cross-legged on a stone chair in the courtyard.

Perhaps it was because she had been drinking too much nourishing soup lately, but she felt a strong, unhealthy urge to vent.

While she was meditating, Aunt Lin was turning over the soil in the backyard to plant vegetables.

"Homegrown vegetables are always healthier and tastier." Suddenly, a sound was heard.

Bang!

A black suitcase flew in.

Aunt Lin stared at the wall not far away in confusion. Who would be so heartless as to throw things into someone else's yard? Thinking of the news she had recently seen about a man who killed and dismembered his wife, she swallowed hard and raised her hoe high.

Bang!

Another suitcase flew through the air in a graceful arc before landing heavily on the grass. Immediately afterward, she saw a man climb over the wall and come in.

"Ah!" A high-decibel scream pierced the sky.

"Don't shout!" The man turned around, pulled down his mask, pointed to his face, and said, "It's me, Aunt Lin."

"A-Nian?" Aunt Lin put down the hoe she had raised high, pointed at the wall and asked in confusion, "How did you climb over the wall? You scared me to death. I thought you were a murderer coming to dispose of a body."

"I wanted you to send Miaomiao away so I could come in, but I couldn't get through when I called you, so I had to climb over the wall," Gu Nian said helplessly.

After watching the surveillance footage for over ten minutes, and seeing that Miaomiao showed no sign of getting up, I had no choice but to climb over the wall to get in.

Aunt Lin smiled sheepishly, "I didn't bring my phone down."

Just then, Luo Shimiao's voice came.

"Aunt Lin, what's wrong?"

Gu Nian reacted quickly, taking advantage of the fact that she hadn't come over yet, and ran to the other side with the two suitcases.

"Aunt Lin, it's a secret!"

The moment the hem of her dress disappeared into the corner, Luo Shimiao emerged from the other end.

"It's nothing, it's nothing. A mouse suddenly popped out and startled me." Aunt Lin returned to the vegetable garden with her hoe, lowering her head to hide the guilt on her face.

"A mouse?" She looked around, her face beaming with excitement. "Where is it? I'll catch it for Little Green to play with."

"I don't know, they disappeared in a flash."

She yawned: "Okay, then I'll go upstairs and take a nap."

"Ouch~" Aunt Lin clutched her back, her brow furrowed. "My old problem has flared up again. Miao Miao, could you help me turn over the rest of the floor before I go up to sleep?"

We can't let her go up there; if she goes up now, she might run into Anian.

Luo Shimiao walked up to her, took the hoe, and said, "No problem, you can sit down and rest."

At the same time, Gu Nian and Xiao Lü bumped into each other when Gu Nian returned to the second floor.

Little Green opened her mouth and said, "You fierce woman, your husband is back!"

"Don't call her, she doesn't know I'm back yet."

"So that's what they were planning: a surprise attack."

Gu Nian pushed her luggage toward the bedroom.

Suddenly, Little Green thought of something, her eyes widened, and she flew to him, saying, "Um... Little Niannian, I think you should go to Little Luoluo's room."

"Why?"

"Because...because fierce women usually don't go into her brother's room, it's safe to hide there."

He looked at the bird, which never stumbled when it spoke, but now it was stammering and its eyes narrowed.

"You don't want me to go in? Does that mean Miao Miao is hiding a man inside?"

"Little Nian Nian is indeed clever, you guessed it right away. Since you guessed it, I won't stop you anymore, hehe." After saying that, Little Green flew to the side to make way.

He glanced at it with a slightly cool gaze, it was just a casual joke, but he didn't expect Little Green to admit it so readily.

A handsome smile curved his lips; he simply didn't believe Miao Miao would hide a man.

"Impossible. With a boyfriend as handsome as me, she could never be interested in another man." Head held high, she strode confidently and opened the door.

After a while, a male voice, suppressing his anger, rang out in the room.

"Luo! Shi! Miao!"

"While I was away, you actually slept with other men behind my back, and even gave them your pajamas to wear!"

Xiao Lü comforted her, "Xiao Niannian, calm down. You came back early and only slept for two nights."

"That's all?" Gu Nian looked at the human-shaped dolls placed on the left and right sides of the big bed with a displeased expression.

"A prime minister's belly can hold a boat, you're a CEO, two virtual characters shouldn't be that bad."
