2587 Chapter 2848 — was someone enslaving a child?
“This… how can this be? I’d better do it myself.”Gu Chen’s brows were furrowed, and there was a melancholy expression on his face that did not match his age.
“Little guy, don’t worry. These are very common practices. I guarantee that your family won’t find out that you didn’t do it.”Tang zui winked at him.
Gu Chen looked at him and suddenly felt much more relaxed.
“Do you want to listen to a song to relax?”
“Uh… I don’t like listening to songs. Thank you, Uncle.”Gu Chen was very polite.
Tang Zui,”…”
Why was this child different from the children he had seen before?
He was too sensible. He was so sensible that it made one’s heart ache.
“What’s Your Name?”
“I’m Gu Chen.”
“I’m Tang Zui.”
“…”
Gu Chen didn’t say anything else. He had been peeking at this uncle along the way. He felt that this uncle looked familiar, as if he had seen him before.
Moreover, that kind of familiarity made him feel strange. This uncle felt like his mommy.
Although Gu Chen was puzzled, he didn’t say it out loud. After all, he didn’t know this uncle.
He thought it was probably because this uncle had sent him to the hospital and treated him well.
When the two of them arrived downstairs, the delivery man had already arrived. Tang zui even asked someone to buy a lot of vegetables.
It was a little strenuous for Gu Chen to take them upstairs alone, so Tang Zui took the initiative to send him upstairs.
The two of them, one big and one small, went upstairs together.
After entering the house, Gu Chen took the dishes to the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and sorted them out.
“Uncle, do you want some water?”
“Oh, it’s okay. The dishes have been put down. If you have nothing else to do, I’ll leave first.”Tang zui was still thinking about going to find Gu Mian.
“Uncle, don’t go yet.”Gu Chen took out a box of milk from the refrigerator, warmed it up, and walked over to give it to him.
“Thank you.”Tang zui smiled and took it.
The phone at home rang. Gu Chen immediately ran over to pick it up. Tang Zui wanted to say goodbye to him before leaving, so he stood there without moving.
“Mommy, aren’t you coming home for dinner tonight? I… I haven’t done it yet… Well, then you take care of yourself. Yes, yes… I know. You have to come back early. If there’s anything, remember to call me. Okay… I’ll eat. Bye.”Gu Chen was absent-minded for a moment after he put down the phone.
Tang zui looked at him calmly. He felt that this kid was really special.
“Why? Your family isn’t coming back for dinner?”Tang zui asked.
“Yes, they said something happened… Uncle, you bought so many dishes. I Can’t finish them all by myself. If you don’t have anything urgent, you can accompany me to dinner before you leave, okay?”Gu Chen looked at him sincerely.
Tang zui nodded. “Sure, I haven’t eaten anything all day.”
Ever since he heard about Gu Mian, he had only drunk wine and hadn’t eaten anything.
Seeing that he had agreed, Gu Chen smiled. Tang Zui was a little absent-minded when he saw his smile. Why did he feel that this child looked like Gu Mian?
He felt like he had seen a ghost. Perhaps it was because he missed Gu Mian too much. Everyone looked like her.
Gu Chen did not know what he was thinking. After he had prepared the bowls and chopsticks, he warmly invited Tang Zui to eat with him.
“Chenchen, how old are you?”Tang zui picked up some food for him.
“I’m over five.”Gu Chen also picked up some food for him. He was also used to picking up food for his mommy.
“You’re only over five… and you want to buy food to cook? You… Don’t go to Kindergarten?”Tang zui was quite surprised.
He was thinking that someone enslaved children?
