Chapter 16: I Remember Your Birthday, Too
Gu Xiaoqi took it, his fingers trembled and he opened the red book, and Mu Liancheng's name was written on the first page.
Mu Liancheng, the head of the household, is male, ethnic Han, unmarried......
Turning the second page, it was actually her message.
Gu Xiaoqi, female, ethnic Han, unmarried......
Gu Xiaoqi looked at the words on it in shock, she and Mu Liancheng actually appeared in a household registration book, but the column of the relationship between the two was blank.
"Ninth Master, this ......"
Mu Liancheng has been preparing for this matter for a long time, and from the moment the Gu family kicked Xiaoqi out of the house, they were not worthy of being Xiaoqi's family.
"Xiaoqi, I will be your family from now on." Not a boyfriend, not a lover, but family.
For Gu Xiaoqi, these two words are far more beautiful than any love words.
"Family, I have family too." Tears of joy wet Xiaoqi's face, and she cherished the household registration book in the palm of her hand and pasted it to her chest.
When he learned that he was not the daughter of the Gu family, Gu Xiaoqi was confused.
After living for more than ten years, she suddenly became nothing, her parents had no relationship, her brother disappeared, no relatives, no friends, she was like a duckweed, she didn't know where to be.
It was the man in front of her who gave her a home.
From now on, she has a family. Someone to talk to when she's sad, someone to share when she's happy, someone to help her when she's frustrated, it's just ...... Where in this world is good for no reason.
Gu Xiaoqi put away the joy in his heart, and asked astringently: "Ninth Master, you, what do you need me to do?" ”
Mu Liancheng did not deny that he had another purpose, his fingers tapped lightly on the table, his eyes were fixed on Gu Xiaoqi and said, "Stay by my side and be obedient." ”
Gu Xiaoqi pinched the household registration book with his fingers hard, and solemnly agreed, "Okay." ”
"Xiaoqi, be good." Mu Liancheng pinched Xiaoqi's face like a child.
After cutting the steak elegantly, Mu Liancheng said seemingly unintentionally: "Xiaoqi, if you want to go out with friends in the future, you can tell me directly." Putting the cut steak in front of Xiaoqi, Mu Liancheng said again: "I will definitely not agree." ”
Xiaoqi was accustomed to the fickleness of men, and knew that if he resisted, he would be exchanged for more brutal suppression, so Gu Xiaoqi nodded obediently, "Ninth Master, I won't tell you." ”
was scolded back by the girl without a trace, Mu Liancheng simply stopped hinting at it, and said directly: "Don't go to see Jian Yan secretly in the future." ”
"When will I ......" Gu Xiaoqi subconsciously wanted to refute, but as soon as she was halfway through the words, she suddenly remembered the last chance encounter in the amusement park, could it be ......
"Ninth Master, how do you know that I met Jian Yan?"
Mu Liancheng didn't want to hide it, he took out his mobile phone, called up the two photos, and put them in front of Xiaoqi.
"It's!" The more Gu Xiaoqi looked at it, the more angry she became, she was obviously arguing with Jian Yan that day, why did she look so ambiguous in the photo, if she wasn't the person concerned, she almost thought that the photo was a young couple!
After reading the photo generously, Gu Xiaoqi didn't explain, but directly dialed the number that sent the photo.
"Ninth Master?" A surprised female voice came from the microphone.
Gu Xiaoqi immediately heard the owner of the voice, and sure enough, it was her-Gu Jiabao!
Pulling out the meal paper on the side, Gu Xiaoqi quickly wrote a line of words and handed it to Mu Liancheng.
Mu Liancheng didn't know the reason, but he still said cooperatively: "What did Gu Xiaoqi and Jian Yan do that day?" ”
Although the man's voice was cold to the bone, Gu Jiabao felt happy, and she replied hesitantly: "Ninth Master, I, I don't want to say bad things about Qiqi behind my back, but I can't bear to see you being kept in the dark." ”
made a bunch of foreshadowing, and just when Mu Liancheng was impatient to hang up the phone, Gu Jiabao whispered to the point, "Ninth Master, I saw Qiqi and Jian Yan meeting in the amusement park, they hugged each other, and they kissed." Later, I asked Qiqi, and she said that she and Jian Yan wanted to elope! ”
A big hat that eloped was buckled on Gu Xiaoqi's head, Xiaoqi was half angry when she heard it, she brushed a few strokes and wrote a paragraph.
Mu Liancheng said according to the above content: "When! ”
"The thirtieth of this month!" Gu Jiabao said with an oath.
The more determined she was, the more suspicious Gu Xiaoqi became, and she gradually sobered up from the anger of being wronged, and motioned for Mu Liancheng to hang up the phone.
Gu Xiaoqi propped his chin and unconsciously scribbled on the paper.
"What's wrong?" Mu Liancheng asked.
Xiaoqi came back to his senses, and then explained: "Ninth Master, I swear that I will never elope with Jian Yan!" It's just that I'm curious why Gu Jiabao is so sure that I will leave on the thirties. “
"What's wrong?"
"The thirtieth is Jane's birthday." Gu Xiaoqi looked slightly lost. In the past, Jian Yan's birthday was a big event for her, she would book the hotel and cake a month in advance, and then find a group of friends to plan Jian Yan's birthday party. But how did Gu Jiabao know about this matter?
Mu Liancheng raised his eyebrows, and there was a jealousy in his tone that he didn't even notice, "In short, you remember the birthday clearly." ”
"I remember your birthday, too!" Gu Xiaoqi blurted out without thinking about it, and finally she muttered in a low voice, "I also prepared a gift for you." ”
The atmosphere cooled down suddenly, and Mu Liancheng tried to think about it, it seemed that he hadn't had a birthday in twenty years.
Because no one wants to remember that painful day, even he chooses to forget.
However, Mu Liancheng was more concerned about Gu Xiaoqi's last sentence, "Do you have something for me?" ”
"Nope!" Xiaoqi said angrily.
Thinking of that night a few days ago, the expression on Mu Liancheng's face softened even more, he stretched out his hand and spread it upward, "Xiaoqi, my gift." ”
Reluctantly took out the bracelet from his pocket, Gu Xiaoqi tried his best to make a relaxed expression, "It's not a valuable thing, and it was broken by you, wait until I make a lot of money to buy you a better one!" ”
Without waiting for Gu Xiaoqi to retract his hand, Mu Liancheng quickly withdrew the bracelet, he put the chain in the palm of his hand and observed it carefully.
The small silver plum blossom chain is very delicate, and there is a small pendant hanging on it, which looks like a number seven.
"Seven?" Mu Liancheng played with the chain and raised his eyebrows to look at Gu Xiaoqi.
Xiaoqi's face was red, she didn't think so much when she bought it, because seven was her favorite number, so she chose this one. Instead, she ignored the words in her name, and now it looked as if she was going to give herself to Mu Liancheng.
"Thank you, I love it." Mu Liancheng took off the jade pendant worth a thousand gold on his wrist and put it on Gu Xiaoqi's hand, "Return the gift." ”
"No, no." Xiaoqi wanted to withdraw her hand, she didn't want to accept such an expensive gift, although she now eats Mu Liancheng's, drinks Mu Liancheng's, and sleeps in Mu Liancheng's bed, but she still doesn't want to accept it.
Mu Liancheng didn't give Gu Xiaoqi a chance to resist, he said in a flat tone: "Xiaoqi, this bracelet was taken back from abroad, it is worth 30 million, you have to be careful to protect it." ”
Gu Xiaoqi - "Can I not want it?" ”
"Xiaoqi, don't have a burden in your heart, I'm motivating you to work hard to make money, you have to work hard." Mu Liancheng was really not suitable for laughing, and his cold tone sounded like a show off and a threat.
Xiaoqi wants to cry without tears, rich people are the most annoying!
