But the next second, Chi Yu was dumbfounded.
Gu Yuan didn’t know whose number she had dialed. With the phone pressed to her ear, she said to the person on the other end, "People who are easily angered and have volatile tempers are prone to dostic violence, right?"
After the person on the other end said sothing, Gu Yuan gave a aningful "oh" and then ended the call.
Chi Yu: ???
Gu Yuan put away her phone and looked at Chi Yu, her words straightforward: "I’m a woman who can’t even truss a chicken, facing a man like you who is easily angered and volatile, I could be in life-threatening danger. You might dostically abuse the next second, so... let’s not et for now."
Chi Yu: ...
Dostic violence?
What the heck???
He dostically abuses Gu Yuan, isn’t that a bit backward...
However, Gu Yuan had already left, leaving him with only her back.
After being stunned, he quickly chased after her, only to see her getting into Quan Yin’s car.
At that mont—
Chi Yu’s expression completely crumpled!
When did his Uncle co to Sui City again without him hearing a word about it!
"Damn!" He ground out the word from his back teeth.
...
It wasn’t a coincidence that Gu Yuan ran into Quan Yin.
Before she ca out, she received a ssage from Quan Yin that he would be coming over.
This past year, their interactions had significantly decreased. Plus, Gu Yuan made a point to avoid him. Except for necessary business etings, she’d almost entirely stopped seeing Quan Yin otherwise.
In the car.
The two exchanged polite greetings, to the point where Quan Yin could only smile wryly: "Before, I could chat with Miss Gu about this and that. Now, Miss Gu is truly distancing herself."
Gu Yuan smiled faintly: "I’m just a vulgar businessperson."
The other layer of aning to "vulgar businessperson" was: without business, it would be like strangers not even knowing each other.
Quan Yin asked about her recent affairs, and Gu Yuan answered deftly.
When Chi Yu was brought up, Quan Yin said a few more words. However, Gu Yuan wasn’t keen on talking about Chi Yu’s issues, which Quan Yin noticed and asked, "Has that kid made you unhappy recently?"
Gu Yuan shook her head: "No, he’s very busy, and so am I."
"Since he entered the entertainnt industry, the ti he spends with you has significantly decreased. With both of you busy, how well can you care for Suisui?"
The implication was that Gu Yuan should send Suisui to Yanjing to be with the elderly relatives.
Gu Yuan realized the reason Quan Yin ca: "Grandma must be missing Suisui."
Quan Yin: "Yes."
Gu Yuan lowered her eyelashes, speaking softly: "I’ve been so busy this past year, I’ve ignored Grandma and Madam Mu Lan’s side. Suisui should indeed be sent to Yanjing."
Only now did she realize that since she last left, she hadn’t taken Suisui to Yanjing again.
Usually, they only saw each other through video calls.
After all, Old Madam Quan was getting old and couldn’t easily travel back and forth.
From beside her, Quan Yin’s voice ca: "If you really can’t spare the energy and ti, and if you’re willing to trust , you can let take Suisui to Yanjing."
Gu Yuan hesitated for a mont.
Of course, she trusted Quan Yin.
But she couldn’t completely and blindly trust him.
Not thinking of any bad scenarios, just considering that Quan Yin is a busy man, plans could change anyti with him; Gu Yuan, being a similar person, deeply understood. If halfway, Quan Yin were to go sowhere else and hand Suisui off to soone else to take to Yanjing, that would be Gu Yuan’s biggest worry.
She hesitated for less than a minute and said, "I can take Suisui myself this ti. There’s nothing particularly urgent at work, nothing major."
Quan Yin: "That’s good."
Arriving at the Gu Mansion.
Chi Yu’s car had already arrived ahead of them, parked at the front entrance waiting.
Seeing Quan Yin’s car bringing Gu Yuan back, Chi Yu was consud with jealousy, his face twisted, and without a word stepped forward to block in front.
The car stopped.
He walked to Gu Yuan’s side and pulled the door handle, locked. He knocked on the window: "Open the door!"
The driver was startled, first glancing at Quan Yin’s expression.
Seeing Quan Yin nod, only then did he dare to unlock the doors.
Chi Yu smoothly opened the car door, grabbed Gu Yuan’s hand, and pulled her out of the car. Then he loudly said to Quan Yin inside the car: "Thank you, Uncle, for bringing my wife ho."
Quan Yin smirked: "You’re welco." — Hmph, childish.
’Bang-’
Chi Yu slamd the car door shut.
Gu Yuan glanced at him, "What did you eat, gunpowder?"
Chi Yu, realizing what Gu Yuan would say next, imdiately said: "I really don’t do dostic violence!"
Gu Yuan suddenly said, "Chi Yu, you hit ."
Chi Yu goggled in disbelief: "What??"
He didn’t believe it at all, instead he replied, "It was you who hit , right!"
Gu Yuan: "...Want to try what it feels like to be hit by again?"
Chi Yu: "Then you might as well beat to death."
Gu Yuan lowered her gaze: "But if I beat you to death, Suisui wouldn’t have a dad anymore, right?"
Chi Yu suddenly hugged Gu Yuan tightly: "Then you better not beat to death. If I die, Suisui won’t have a dad, and you won’t have a husband."
Gu Yuan pushed him away, raising a gentle smile: "It’s okay, I can always find another husband, not a big deal."
Chi Yu: "..."
