437: Chapter 195 The Virtuous Wife and Good Mother Gu Qingxiang_1 437: Chapter 195 The Virtuous Wife and Good Mother Gu Qingxiang_1 Lin Baici pushed the cart, with Gu Qingxiang following beside him feeling sowhat uneasy.
Whenever so girls passed by, they would steal glances at Lin Baici, and after looking him over, their gazes would fall on her and size her up as if questioning whether she was worthy of him.
Gu Qingxiang knew that these people mistook them for a couple.
Lin Baici had high attractiveness, and his figure was outstanding too, not only was he tall and leggy, but his muscle definition was also quite striking—any clothes he wore looked good on him.
“We’ve bought almost everything, let’s go pay?”
Gu Qingxiang decided that she would never go to the supermarket with Lin Baici again.
She couldn’t stand these sneaky gazes, especially since many people seed to say with their eyes, “How could such a handso guy end up with such a plain girlfriend.”
Gu Qingxiang felt a little insecure.
“Don’t you eat snacks usually?”
Lin Baici was surprised.
“Dieting!”
Gu Qingxiang answered succinctly.
“You’re not fat, what are you dieting for?”
Lin Baici took the cart and rushed to the snack area, grabbing a big pile of sunflower seeds, potato chips, and spicy strips.
At the checkout, Lin Baici directed, “You pack the stuff!”
When Gu Qingxiang saw that Lin Baici was about to pay, she hurried to stop him: “What are you doing?
I’ll pay!”
“I’ll do it, otherwise how can I have the face to freeload food and drinks?”
Lin Baici thought to himself, “A year from now, I will be Lin Baici, a billionaire with financial freedom.
Why are you competing with over this with your ager salary?”
“Besides, many of the things here were picked by !”
Like those snacks, for instance.
“Hurry up, it’s getting late, and we still need to cook!”
Lin Baici urged.
The two of them carried four large bags and returned to the apartnt complex.
“Watch so TV or play on the computer, I’ll go make dinner!”
Gu Qingxiang changed into ho clothes, tied on an apron, and headed straight for the kitchen.
“Oh!”
Lin Baici glanced at the television a few tis, losing interest swiftly.
The computer was in Gu Qingxiang’s bedroom, and he didn’t feel right entering, so he simply washed his hands and entered the kitchen.
“I’ll give you a hand!”
Lin Baici often helped his mother cook at ho too.
“You go rest!”
Gu Qingxiang felt sowhat uncomfortable with this.
Lin Baici didn’t leave.
Both were efficient workers, and soon after, Gu Qingxiang finished preparing the at filling and started to wrap dumplings.
“You’re quite good at this!”
Gu Qingxiang was surprised; it seed Lin Baici often did household chores at ho.
After a busy session, the dumplings were served.
Two plates held steaming dumplings, plump and white, looking very appetizing.
Gu Qingxiang also made a cucumber and pig ear salad, a plate of old vinegar peanuts, and sliced so sauce beef.
“Let’s eat!”
Gu Qingxiang poured vinegar into a small dish and placed it in front of Lin Baici.
Lin Baici looked at the table full of ho-cooked food and sighed with emotion, “I haven’t tasted it yet, but it already has the flavor of ho!”
He ant nothing more by it, but when Gu Qingxiang heard this, her cheeks flushed imdiately, even her earlobes turned pink.
What did Lin Baici an?
Do we really look like a couple?
“Eat while it’s hot!”
To avoid Lin Baici seeing her embarrassed state, Gu Qingxiang found an excuse to leave the table, “Do you drink beer?”
“Whatever!”
Gu Qingxiang dilly-dallied until the blush on her face had faded before returning, only to find Lin Baici hadn’t touched his chopsticks yet, “Why haven’t you eaten?”
“Waiting for you!”
Lin Baici smiled slightly.
Gu Qingxiang’s heart gave a few traitorous thumps.
There was no helping it; Lin Baici really was handso, and that sentence was just so heartwarming.
Lin Baici opened two cans of beer, “Cheers!”
Clang!
An evening drink under the moonlight, full of love and affection.
Lin Baici tasted a dumpling and imdiately gave Gu Qingxiang a thumbs up, “Superb!
Can I co to eat often in the future?”
“Hmm!”
Gu Qingxiang nodded, holding her beer and silently watching Lin Baici eat.
Under the light,
In the eyes of the female instructor, there was an indescribable emotion, but it quickly disappeared.
After the al, Lin Baici wanted to clean up the bowls and chopsticks, but Gu Qingxiang stopped him.
“Go have fun!”
Gu Qingxiang had the air of a virtuous wife and good mother, tidying up the utensils and putting them in the sink, “Would you like so apples?”
Lin Baici leaned against the kitchen door fra, watching Gu Qingxiang.
Gu Qingxiang washed two apples and set them aside.
“Help yourself!”
Then she began washing the dishes, when suddenly, a pair of arms wrapped around her waist from behind, startling her and she instinctively tried to push away Lin Baici’s hands.
But in the next instant, she heard Lin Baici whisper one word.
“Mom!”
Lin Baici rested his head on top of Gu Qingxiang’s.
Gu Qingxiang did not scold Lin Baici; she just stood still, and then she resud washing the dishes.
She heard a thick weariness in Lin Baici’s voice.
At this mont, the boy probably missed ho and saw her as a mother!
Lin Baici was tired at heart.
Yesterday, in God’s Ruins, facing that God, he knew he couldn’t escape, so he chose to devour the ancestral God’s bones, obstructing the God, and at least buying so ti for Hua Yue Yu and the others to escape.
Lin Baici had prepared himself for death, but to tell the truth, his life had just begun.
Who would want to die?
Especially when he still had twenty million unspent.
Such a loss.
Later, when he regained consciousness on the high-speed train, Lin Baici panicked; his body seed uncontaminated, but who knew the actual situation?
Would there be any aftermath?
And the future, although he had joined the Jiuzhou Security Bureau and the treatnt was not bad, who knew whether he could work happily?
Actually, the most important point was always avoided by Lin Baici.
What exactly is the Eater God?
To even be capable of digesting Gods.
Although it seed harmless to him now, what about the future?
Lin Baici missed ho because his mother was the only one who could give him warmth, but on the high-speed train, he dared not go back.
He was afraid of troubling his mother, and with her understanding of him, she would definitely notice sothing odd.
She’d ask questions that he wouldn’t have good answers for when the ti ca.
Looking at Gu Qingxiang, Lin Baici saw the figure of his mother, and he couldn’t help but hug her, just like when he had a nightmare as a child and wanted to crawl into his mother’s bed.
About three minutes later, Lin Baici’s emotions had cald down, and then he was stunned.
What did I just do?
Lin Baici was in a cold sweat, anxious.
How could he explain this?
If I say I saw her as my mother, would she believe it?
Anyway, Lin Baici wouldn’t believe it.
Because no matter how you listen to it, it sounds like an excuse to take advantage of soone.
Lin Baici let go: “I…
I ca to get an apple!”
After speaking, he grabbed an apple and bolted away.
Gu Qingxiang turned around, and suddenly, she chuckled out loud.
Lin Baici,
so you get flustered too!
Lin Baici was restless in the living room, wanting to leave but feeling that leaving without explaining would lead to even bigger misunderstandings.
Half an hour later, Gu Qingxiang finished tidying up and ca out with a plate of crispy at and a plate of peanuts, obviously prepared for snacking while watching TV.
“Don’t drink any more alcohol!”
Gu Qingxiang sat down on the sofa.
“Oh!”
Lin Baici didn’t know how to start.
“If you have troubles on your mind, you can talk to !”
Gu Qingxiang believed it was her duty as a counselor to provide students with psychological guidance.
“Not at all!”
Are you kidding ?
I make over a hundred million a year; what troubles could I have?
“Lin Baici, everyone accumulates so grievances in life, like branches sprouting from a sapling.
Don’t be afraid, just prune them off!”
Gu Qingxiang looked at Lin Baici sincerely: “Talking to soone is the most effective way to cleanse the clutter of your soul, don’t worry, I won’t tell anyone!”
Gu Qingxiang patted the sofa next to her, signaling Lin Baici to sit down.
To make Lin Baici more comfortable, Gu Qingxiang took the initiative to open a can of beer for him.
Gu Qingxiang’s gentleness greatly lowered Lin Baici’s guard and he felt comfortable, so he sat down, took the beer, and gulped down a big mouthful.
“The college life I longed for was to study hard every day, to find a girlfriend who may not be pretty but has long beautiful legs, to work hard for four years, graduate together, get a good job, stay in this city, support each other, and make life better.”
Lin Baici turned his head and looked toward the window where moonlight spilled in: “But since going to pray at the temple during the sumr vacation, my life has been different; it took another path.”
Even though Lin Baici’s strength was increasing rapidly, he had only been a God Hunter for three months, and his mindset hadn’t kept up.
He didn’t know if he should help others in the perilous God’s Ruins, whether he should use cannon fodder, nor how to face those deaths…
And how to wield this imnse strength!
Lin Baici was also an ordinary person; he had desires too.
When he had money and great combat power, to be honest, listening to everyone in the dorm discuss won, sotis he too felt a wild urge.
Xu Daguan said he liked Ji Xinyan, but he surely couldn’t attract her, unlike Lin Baici.
If he wanted…
But he didn’t dare, because he was afraid that once he took that step, he would keep falling deeper into depravity.
Because he really did have the power to do whatever he wished.
Gu Qingxiang patted Lin Baici’s shoulder, opened a can of beer, and clinked it with his.
“Only those who can control their desires are truly strong!”
She had a feeling that Lin Baici was like a fierce beast that had broken into a pen of sheep, desperately suppressing his hunger.
As the night deepened, dreams invaded sleep.
Because of the passive effect of Divine Grace, Lin Baici was physiologically unaffected by liquor, but psychologically drunk.
He talked a lot.
Since it was related to God’s Ruins, he couldn’t be explicit, so it all sounded vague.
If it were soone else, they would have lost interest long ago, but Gu Qingxiang was patient, listening earnestly to Lin Baici’s grievances.
The night passed, and frost fell on the ground.
Lin Baici opened his eyes to find himself on a double bed.
He imdiately turned his head; thankfully, no one was beside him.
“What did I do last night?”
Lin Baici pinched the bridge of his nose; as mories surfaced and he confird he hadn’t said anything taboo, he breathed a sigh of relief.
He walked out of the bedroom and heard noises from the kitchen.
“You’re up?
Go wash up, I’ve made breakfast!”
Gu Qingxiang called out.
[Your destiny lies with nature, hunting, feasting, procreation; won will only slow down the speed with which you draw your blade!]
