After saying this, Su Yunling placed his gaze on Gu Zhiqi, "The clothes... bought today?"
Gu Zhiqi nodded lightly, then looked up at Su Yunling with a smile and asked, "Do I look good in this?"
Su Yunling nodded, "Looks good."
After receiving Su Yunling’s response, Gu Zhiqi continued to look up at Su Yunling, and Su Yunling didn’t seem to move his gaze away either.
The two of them stared at each other without speaking for a long ti.
Only the two of them knew how irregular their heartbeats were at that mont.
"Brother, you..."
Gu Zhiqi had just said three words when a voice interrupted, "Third Brother, the charcoal’s ready, co over here!"
Seeing Gu Zhiqi stop speaking, Su Yunling’s hand suddenly itched, wanting to beat up the person who just spoke.
Usually emotionless, a rare trace of impatience appeared on Su Yunling’s face as he turned to look at Ji Xiangyu.
However, Ji Xiangyu didn’t notice Su Yunling’s unusual deanor and continued cheerfully, "What I grill doesn’t taste as good as yours, co on, I’ll help!"
Su Yunling: "..."
In his heart, he was already planning when to teach this clueless guy a lesson.
He turned back to glance at Gu Zhiqi and said to her, "Go sit, I’ll grill sothing for you... all to eat."
As soon as she heard about food, Gu Zhiqi imdiately nodded, "Okay."
Seeing her obedient nod, Su Yunling reached out to ruffle Gu Zhiqi’s hair but hesitated, fearing he might ss up her hairstyle. In the end, he regretfully withdrew his hand and walked toward Ji Xiangyu.
As Gu Zhiqi watched Su Yunling leave, she raised a hand to touch the top of her head and mumbled softly, "Not as good as it used to feel?"
**
The reason Ji Xiangyu, Yi Tingfeng, and others gathered at the Yun house today was because they had planned it in advance.
Everyone was busy with their own affairs, and couldn’t usually gather all together, so they agreed to co to the Yun house to celebrate the New Year and have a al together.
It was rare for a few good friends to gather, so everyone drank a bit much.
In the end, the only sober ones left were Madam Yun and Gu Zhiqi.
Seeing everyone drunkenly leaning this way and that, Madam Yun instructed the servants to take them to the guest rooms.
However, she didn’t send everyone away; she left Su Yunling behind.
"Qiqi, I’m going to make so sobering-up soup for the kids, so I’ll have to trouble you to take him back to his room." After speaking, she didn’t give Gu Zhiqi a chance to respond and left with Tang Yichen in tow.
Gu Zhiqi was silent for a mont before finally standing up and walking over to Su Yunling.
Compared to the others, Su Yunling didn’t seem as drunk. After all, the others were slumping over, while he still sat upright.
"Brother, I’ll take you back to your room." As Gu Zhiqi spoke, she reached out to support Su Yunling’s arm.
As soon as her hand landed on Su Yunling’s arm, a hand covered the back of her hand, the grip tightening suddenly.
For a mont, Gu Zhiqi felt a very dangerous aura.
However, when Su Yunling turned around, that aura disappeared, and the pressure on her hand also dissipated.
"Child, is that you?" Su Yunling said softly.
It was then that Gu Zhiqi could clearly see Su Yunling’s current state; there was a hint of tipsiness in his eyes, veiled and dreamy, with a touch of innocent confusion, making him irresistibly charming.
The usually soothing voice was now tinged with a bit of haziness.
Gu Zhiqi stared at Su Yunling for a few seconds, and upon coming back to her senses, she tightened her grip on his arm, "Get up, I’ll take you to rest."
