As soon as Gu Nianshen heard the word ‘breakfast’, he snatched the insulated food container out of Gu Nianjia’s hands. “Give that to me.”
Then, he turned around and reached for the doorknob.
Suddenly, he turned his head to face Gu Nianjia. “I prepared the porridge in the morning,” he said warningly.
‘Ah?’ Gu Nianjia blinked several times as she looked at Gu Nianshen in confusion.
Aunt Zhou had clearly told Gu Nianjia that she had made the porridge and would send someone to deliver it. She did not mention that Gu Nianjia’s brother had made it.
Gu Nianshen knew right away that Gu Nianjia still could not grasp what he was saying. “I made the porridge. Can you remember that?” He asked sternly.
He was making it very clear. If Gu Nianjia still could not understand him, she must be daft.
Was Gu Nianshen trying to take credit for making the porridge so that Lin Yiqian would feel pleased?
Gu Nianjia suddenly realized what was happening as her eyes widened. “I think I have just discovered something significant,” she said softly as she reached for Gu Nianshen’s arm and pulled him far away from Lin Yiqian’s room.
“Brother, why are you trying to please Lin Yiqian?” She asked.
Could he really have fallen for her looks just as she had predicted?
Realizing that Gu Nianjia had read his mind, Gu Nianshen felt awkward and annoyed at the same time. “If you won’t stop talking, I’ll make sure you don’t get to e home for an entire year.” Gu Nianshen warned as he pointed a finger at Gu Nianjia.
Under normal circumstances, Gu Nianjia would have started begging for his forgiveness.
However, it was not happening this time.
Gu Nianjia stuck her right index finger into her mouth as she tilted her head whilst looking at the insulated food container. “In regards to the porridge that you have made, perhaps…” Gu Nianjia paused as she fluttered her eyelids at Gu Nianshen. “Perhaps I might forget it because my two-faced lecturer won’t stop forcing me to study law. You know how my brain has very limited capacity and I always forget things. There’s a possibility that the truth that this porridge has been made by Aunt Zhou would slip out of my mouth by accident.”
After finishing her sentence, Gu Nianjia pulled her finger out of her mouth and began tapping on her head gently.
Was Gu Nianshen being blackmailed in return?
“He won’t force you to study it anymore,” Gu Nianshen said through gritted teeth.
“Really?” Gu Nianjia’s eyes glimmered as she lowered her hand.
As long as it was an order from Gu Nianshen, she could skip classes every day and her professor would not be able to do anything about it.
Right then, Gu Nianshen was glaring at her with a terrifying expression on his face.
He could not believe that he was actually being blackmailed by Gu Nianjia.
This was the most insulting incident in his life over the past two decades.
Gu Nianjia noticed his expression and dared not push any further. “Thank you, Brother. I am sure that after Lin Yiqian eats the porridge you have made, she won’t even think about seeing our youngest uncle anymore. The possibility of Lin Yiqian cheating on you would be near zero.”
Noticing that Gu Nianshen’s facial expression was being gloomier by the second, Gu Nianjia began to slip away before gradually settling into a jog. “Brother, I’m heading off now. I’ve agreed to meet my friends to go shopping!”
If there was no porridge in the insulated food container meant for Lin Yiqian, he would fling it at Gu Nianjia.
He should never have allowed Gu Nianjia to e home regularly.
