Chapter 65
"Right now, it feels like I'm tasting a piece of candy, and this candy is addictive." She paused, looked at him, and said slowly, "Maybe it's because you gave it to me."
Gu Hengsheng looked at her for a long time, and finally said gently, "I'm very happy."
"So you see, to me, you are special," she said with a wink.
Gu Hengsheng smiled, stood up, and said, "It's late. Go to the bedroom and rest. You have a flight to catch tomorrow morning."
Although he had clearly stated that he wouldn't touch her, Gu Qingyue's heart still pounded when she heard him say that. She quietly blamed herself, "You're useless."
Gu Hengsheng didn't hear clearly and asked in confusion, "What?"
"Nothing?" She shook her head.
Gu Hengsheng looked down at her again: "Do you need me to carry you to the bed?"
"No need." Gu Qingyue jumped off the sofa and ran into the bedroom like a gust of wind. Gu Hengsheng heard her voice coming from the bedroom again, her voice muffled, "Third Uncle, please pour me a glass of water, thank you."
Gu Hengsheng stood there, shaking his head and laughing.
The next day, Gu Hengsheng had a meeting early in the morning and couldn't get away, so Jiang Wenkui drove her to the airport. As Gu Qingyue got out of the car, Jiang Wenkui stopped her, handed her a set of keys, and explained, "Mr. Gu asked me to give them to you."
Gu Qingyue nodded, took the key from his hand, put it in her bag, and waved goodbye to Jiang Wenkui.
Two hours later, Gu Qingyue met her mother at the Huai City Airport. The two of them didn't linger at the airport for long before getting in the car. Her mother drove to pick her up herself, and Gu Qingyue got in the passenger seat. "What do you want to eat today? Mom will cook it for you," she said.
"Boiled fish fillets." said Gu Qingyue.
Mother Gu said in a casual tone, "Is your third uncle not back?"
Hearing Gu's mother mention Gu Hengsheng, Gu Qingyue rarely showed a bit of embarrassment on her face. She said softly: "He will be gone for a few days."
Mother Gu nodded, but didn't ask any more questions.
After returning home, Gu Qingyue went to the bathroom to wash up. When she came down, her mother was busy in the kitchen. Gu Qingyue folded the sleeves of her sweater several times and piled them at her wrists. She turned on the faucet, washed her hands, helped peel potatoes, and asked, "Where's Aunt Xu?"
"Aunt Xu has a day off today," said Gu's mother.
"Uncle Su and sister, will you come back for dinner later?" Gu Qingyue was peeling a clove of garlic.
"Your Uncle Su will be back, Su Xi..." Mother Gu hesitated and sighed heavily, "Last time, she had a disagreement with your uncle and had a fight with him. She hasn't come back in the past few days. It's a good opportunity for you to come back and have a chat with Su Xi. Your Uncle Su was also angry at the moment, so it's inevitable that he said something unpleasant."
"What's the matter?" Gu Qingyue asked curiously.
"Su Xi is dating your fourth uncle." Mother Gu glanced at her. Seeing that Gu Qingyue didn't look surprised at all, she said firmly, "Qingyue, have you known about this for a long time?"
Gu Qingyue nodded.
Mother Gu smiled helplessly and said, "You kids are all so thoughtful, I can't see through it."
"No, I will tell you everything I have." Gu Qingyue explained.
Mother Gu didn't continue the topic, but said, "In a few days, you and I will go back to Yanjiang to visit your grandfather."
Gu Qingyue looked hesitant.
Mother Gu knew what she was thinking and comforted her: "Your grandfather is confused now, so you don't have to be afraid. As for what happened between you and Hengsheng, there is no need to worry too much. After all, the entire Gu family will have to rely on your third uncle in the future. They dare not say anything more."
Gu Qingyue was absent-minded and said "oh" softly.
After Gu Qingyue finished lunch, she returned to her room and Gu Hengsheng called her. Gu Qingyue sat cross-legged on the bed and said, "Assistant Jiang gave me a set of keys. Is it the same house?"
"Yes." Gu Hengsheng said.
"But you don't work at the Academy of Sciences?" Gu Qingyue asked curiously, "Why do you continue to rent it?"
"Qingyue, to be precise, I am the owner of the house now." He smiled lightly and said.
"You bought it?" she asked in surprise.
"right."
"But you usually live in Yanjiang, so there's no need to buy this house, especially a second-hand one, which is not cost-effective." Gu Qingyue didn't understand and analyzed the pros and cons for him. She didn't believe the logic behind it, as he had never thought about it.
"Because someone said she liked that bedroom," he said.
Gu Qingyue's voice was stuck in her throat. After a long while, she slowly uttered "oh". However, she couldn't help but let out a smile. She replied to him with the words he had said before, "I'm very happy."
The two didn't chat for too long, and soon, Gu Hengsheng went to do something. Gu Qingyue hung up the phone, and there were footsteps outside the room, and then the footsteps stopped at the door, and then there was a knock on her door.
Gu Qingyue hugged the quilt and said, "Come in."
Su Xi pushed open the door and saw the smile on Gu Qingyue's face that hadn't yet subsided. She asked, "Are you and Gu Hengsheng together?"
Gu Qingyue nodded slowly.
Su Xi said: "He finally convinced himself."
"What do you mean?" Gu Qingyue didn't understand.
Su Xi said, "You were studying in London, and he often visited you. Even using the name of an elder, I felt tired for him."
"That's a game we all agree on," said Gu Qingyue.
Su Xi added, "How does it feel to get what you want?"
"I can't describe how happy I am," she said. "It's probably like winning the lottery."
Su Xi sat on the edge of the bed, touched her face and said, "Congratulations."
"Thank you." Gu Qingyue seemed to be hesitant to speak. Su Xi saw through her thoughts and asked, "What do you want to say?"
"Then don't be angry." Gu Qingyue showed a cautious expression and took a deep breath. "I heard that you had a quarrel with Uncle Su. My mother asked me to be the peacemaker. I don't think I have the ability to do so."
"Then what are you talking about?" Su Xi rolled her eyes at her.
"I have to give it a try. You know what I lack the least is courage," said Gu Qingyue.
"That's because you're still young." Su Xi's tone was a little more solemn.
"You're not old either." Gu Qingyue said with a smile.
"Of course, he's not as old as your third uncle." Su Xi deliberately retorted her.
Gu Qingyue was choked. She hurriedly defended him: "He is not old, he is very charming..."
"Well, yes, a very charming 34-year-old man." Su Xi said every word, intentionally teasing her.
Gu Qingyue: "Don't say bad things about him."
"Oh, I'm telling the truth, how can it be considered bad?"
"I see that you are in a good mood. My mother was wrong. I shouldn't have been the peacemaker." Gu Qingyue took a step back and raised the white flag to beg for mercy.
Su Xi smiled happily and let her go.
