Chapter 1486: Chapter 1490: We Should Give Him So Face, Right?
Gu Junzhu smiled contentedly, grabbed her hand, kissed it, took the water cup, and handed it to her, “Drink a bit more, it’s about ti to go ho.”
Ye Xingbei obediently drank half a cup of water, stood up, and stretched a bit, “Honestly, you don’t need to be so overly cautious. I’m not that fragile.”
“Patients who are still sick don’t get to say that!” Gu Junzhu got up, went to the wardrobe, and took out one of his jackets, “Put this on when we head out.”
Ye Xingbei felt a warm glow in her heart but also thought it was a bit excessive, “It’s not that serious, you’re overreacting.”
Gu Junzhu flicked her forehead, “Soone’s taking care of you. Can’t you just be grateful? Overreacting?”
“Fair enough,” Ye Xingbei hugged the jacket to her chest, stood on her toes, and kissed him, “Gu Junzhu, you’re getting warr and warr!”
Gu Junzhu shut down his computer, checked around the office, then pulled her into his arms, “In the future, I can be even warr. So warm that you won’t want to leave my arms for anywhere else!”
“What about sumr?” Ye Xingbei playfully countered.
“With the air conditioning turned down so low in the sumr, you’ll still want soplace warm,” Gu Junzhu replied without missing a beat.
The two bantered back and forth as they left the office.
It was already after work hours, and the office was empty.
As they exited the company building, Gu Junzhu’s car was already waiting in front of the lobby.
Seeing the two descend the steps, Gu Chi got out of the car and opened the door for them.
Behind Gu Junzhu’s car was parked a fiery red limited-edition supercar.
The door of the supercar opened, and out stepped Jing Shasha.
A fire-red short dress, fire-red little heels, hair cascading like seaweed, and a delicately beautiful face mostly hidden behind oversized black sunglasses.
She took off her sunglasses, walked over to Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei, and called out sweetly, “Fifth Brother, Fifth Sister-in-Law.”
Ye Xingbei’s lips twitched.
This little girl was stunningly beautiful, bold and fiery like a fla, with a natural air of wild flamboyance. Her current obedient and demure deanor seed completely out of place.
Gu Junzhu stopped in his tracks, his previously warm and slightly roguish expression instantly transforming into one of indifference, “What do you want?”
“Nothing,” Jing Shasha stuck out her tongue, “Just wanted to say hi to you and Sister-in-law, you know, to earn so brownie points.”
“Who Yu Mo marries isn’t up to ,” Gu Junzhu said, “If you want to score points, you should talk to him. You’re barking up the wrong tree.”
“I’m not expecting him to marry !” Jing Shasha said, looking thrilled, “I want to marry him!”
Ye Xingbei let out a snort of laughter.
Jing Shasha was lucky she hadn’t been drinking anything just now, or she would’ve sprayed it all over her face.
Jing Shasha widened her eyes, “Sister-in-law, I’m serious!”
“It’s scary that you’re serious,” Ye Xingbei stifled her laughter, “Doesn’t Yu Mo care about his pride? Even if he looks like soone easy to tease, he’s still a man. n care about their pride! Since you like him, shouldn’t you at least give him a little face?”
Jing Shasha bit her lip, “I know good n don’t want to marry into their wife’s family, but what can I do when my grandpa, dad, and mom all insist I find a husband who will marry into ours? If Yu Mo refuses to marry , I can’t marry him.”
Ye Xingbei: “…Actually, in the small towns back where I’m from, even if the man marries into the woman’s family, the woman still says she’s marrying the man. They wouldn’t say they’re marrying the man into the woman’s family, just to save him so face!”
“Oh… Isn’t everyone saying n and won are equal now? If won can marry n, doesn’t it make sense that n can marry won too?” Jing Shasha fiddled with her sunglasses, “A lot of n actually want to marry ; I just don’t fancy them!”
