Chapter 1092: I’m Very Happy That I Can Watch You Grow Up on Your Father’s Behalf
Gu Qingcheng felt that if Yun Liuli were to change into a pair of high heels and a suit, she’d definitely appear very capable and charismatic. If it wasn’t because she was still wearing youthful overalls and sporting white shoes, Gu Qingcheng would have thought that he had traveled through s.p.a.ce and time and was looking at Yun Liuli from five to six years later.
Gu Qingcheng had already made the call, and being in a daze, he hadn’t managed to hang it up in time. After changing her shoes, Yun Liuli smiled at Gu Qingcheng, took out her phone to take a look, and hung it up. “I’m already home, so why are you still calling me?”
Gu Qingcheng returned to his senses and looked at Yun Liuli’s hair. At a closer look, it looked a little cute, especially when she smiled. It would make her seem very childish.
“Have you eaten?” Gu Qingcheng tugged open his tie and asked as he removed his suit.
Yun Liuli shook her head. “I was waiting to eat with you when you got back! Hasn’t the auntie made the food?”
“She just left after she finished making the soup…” Gu Qingcheng told Yun Liuli, who was dragging her feet in her slippers, to wash her hands and then start eating. At the same time, he went to his room to change his clothes.
Although the two of them hadn’t met for some time, they chatted about trivial matters, and the atmosphere was very good.
Yun Liuli went to wash her hands and then started scooping the rice without even changing out of her clothes. She even took out drinks from the fridge and put them on the table…
She was now living with Gu Qingcheng again after so long. Although Yun Liuli didn’t have any sense of unfamiliarity, nor did she feel embarra.s.sed, she also wasn’t planning on using such intense ways to make Gu Qingcheng accept her.
It was said that if a woman wanted to grab onto a man’s heart, they would have to first conquer his stomach.
Yun Liuli looked at the table full of delicacies and thought about learning how to cook from culinary experts in her free time after cla.s.ses. She wanted to attempt to conquer Gu Qingcheng’s stomach. Of course, she had to move gradually.
Yun Liuli felt that her plan was perfect. After scooping the rice and placing it on the table, she went to change her clothes.
When she came back to tidy up her things the other day, she had hung up the prized pajamas that she had prepared previously into her wardrobe. Those pajamas were all in a s.e.xy style.
Yun Liuli took out silk pajamas and a sleeping robe and headed into the bathroom. She put on the strapped pajamas and sleeping robe. With Yun Liuli’s new hairstyle and this set of pajamas, she looked extremely alluring.
She couldn’t control herself. In the past, she had the courage to buy these things because she had made up her mind to win Gu Qingcheng over. But now, with her preparing to move slowly, should she be seducing him so openly?
After some thought, Yun Liuli adjusted the collar of her sleeping robe so that it wouldn’t appear too revealing.
As Yun Liuli was looking into the mirror and adjusting her clothes, Gu Qingcheng knocked on her bedroom’s door. “Are you done? The food is getting cold!”
“Coming!”
Yun Liuli gritted her teeth and opened the door while in that set of pajamas.
Gu Qingcheng, who had just turned and entered the dining room, didn’t pay attention. It was only after Yun Liuli had pulled out a chair and was sitting down opposite him that he was stunned…
Yun Liuli smiled at Gu Qingcheng. “Does it look good?”
Gu Qingcheng’s pitch-black eyes darkened increasingly, and he nodded. “Let’s eat.”
“I’ve always wanted to try a mature style, so I went to get this haircut. I bought the pajamas a long time ago but never had the opportunity to wear them…”
Yun Liuli was telling the truth.
Gu Qingcheng picked up some fish for Yun Liuli and then heard her say, “You might find this look strange on me for now. After all, I’m just a kid in your eyes. But you’ll have to see me as an adult in the future. I’m already a university student!”
After so much prep talk, Gu Qingcheng felt that this was what Yun Liuli really wanted to say.
Yun Liuli had always been anxiously trying to prove to him that she was already an adult. In the past, Gu Qingcheng’s att.i.tude had always been that she was still a kid.
Today, Gu Qingcheng nodded.
Everyone grew up. When one was a child, they would think that it’d be great if they could suddenly grow up one day. The younger the child, the greater their yearning to grow up.
Therefore, Gu Qingcheng scooped soup for Yun Liuli, put it in front of her, and said, “That’s right, you’re already a grown lady now!”
Hearing Gu Qingcheng’s words, Yun Liuli broke out into a heartfelt smile…
Gu Qingcheng looked up at Yun Liuli, saying, “As your senior, I’m very happy that I can watch you grow up on your father’s behalf!”
Yun Liuli’s smile stiffened.
Gu Qingcheng pretended not to have seen her expression. He picked up his bowl of rice and said, “Let’s eat!”
Not wanting to push Gu Qingcheng too much, Yun Liuli picked up her chopsticks and said, “There’s a guy in school by the name of Zhou Yuchen. When I saw him, it was like looking at me before meeting you. However, I feel that he’s more pitiful than me…”
Gu Qingcheng knew that Yun Liuli was referring to campus violence.
Back then, it was because Yun Liuli really didn’t care about how others viewed her. However, Zhou Yuchen cared a lot about how others saw his eyes.
He led a sadder life compared to Yun Liuli. It was because he cared about everyone, while Yun Liuli only cared about the people whom she cared about.
“You want to help him?” Gu Qingcheng’s voice was very slow and was especially good at striking one’s heart.
“En!” Yun Liuli nodded. “But… it’s not really considered help. I’m planning on taking him to the boxing gym your friend opened, to have him learn some self-defense skills. But I don’t know if he has the money for it!”
Yun Liuli heard that Zhou Yuchen’s family was quite poor and that he was staying in the slum area.
Gu Qingcheng’s phone vibrated…
He took a look at it, put down his bowl, and said to Yun Liuli, “I’ll talk to Liu Sheng about it…”
After saying that, Gu Qingcheng picked up his phone and headed for his bedroom.
Gu Qingcheng would always avoid Yun Liuli when handling major issues.
It was because he wasn’t willing to let Yun Liuli know how dirty the world was. He felt that a clean lady like Yun Liuli should use her pair of beautiful eyes to admire the beauty of the world.
Yun Liuli felt that dinner that day was very tasteless. It was because Gu Qingcheng never came back out.
Gu Qingcheng had only taken a bite of the food. Yun Liuli kept the food heated up in the pot, then sat on the sofa, switching through the television channels. She wanted to wait for Gu Qingcheng to be done with his work before displaying her existence as a mature lady.
However, even though Yun Liuli continued to wait, Gu Qingcheng only left his room after she had fallen asleep on the sofa.
When Gu Qingcheng saw Yun Liuli lying down on the sofa, still holding onto the remote control, his heart softened.
He put his phone into his pocket, walked up to the sofa, and called out softly, “Xiao Liuli…”
The reply to Gu Qingcheng’s call was only Yun Liuli’s light breathing.
He sighed, walked up between the sofa and coffee table, and lifted the skinny Xiao Liuli. He then walked to the bedroom, pushed open the door with the tip of his foot, and placed her down on the big bed.
The moonlight shone in from the French windows, landing on Yun Liuli’s jade-like long legs. Her slippery black pajamas slid up, increasingly giving off an alluring charm. This was especially so considering she had a pair of slender and straight legs.
