Chapter 3388: A New Addition (4)
Baby Chu cried out in surprise.
The carved cat was detailed and vivid, without a trace of coa.r.s.e fur, it was exquisite. Its expression was lazy and cute, and its large eyes were lively and charming.
This was a three-dimensional greeting card.
But who made it?
And who had secretly placed it on his bedside?
Could it be Butler Fu?
Baby Chu put on his clothes and took the card with him to look for Butler Fu. He asked excitedly, “Uncle! Uncle! Did you make this?”
Butler Fu looked down at the greeting card in his hand and smiled knowingly. He nodded. “Yes, what do you think? Do you like it?”
Baby Chu nodded excitedly. “Mmm! I like it a lot! I didn’t expect Butler Fu to make such a beautiful greeting card, but why was the greeting card you made yesterday so ugly? This is what I’d call a greeting card!”
Butler Fu scratched the back of his head and felt rather guilty. He coughed awkwardly and cleared his throat. “I was just teasing you!”
In reality?
This card was not made by him of course.
In the morning, the man who had kept up all night to create the card had called for him, and asked him to place the card at Baby Chu’s bedside.
When Butler Fu saw the greeting card that Gu Jinglian had made, his eyes nearly popped out of their sockets!
“Old Master, to think you are so skillful!”
Gu Jinglian glared at him.
“If it weren’t for you bunch of trash, I wouldn’t have had the chance to become this skillful.”
Butler Fu rubbed his nose awkwardly.
“You don’t even know how to make a greeting card. Are you really that old and confused?”
Butler Fu complained aggrievedly, “Well… I’ve never done it before!”
“Cut the c.r.a.p.” Gu Jinglian snapped, “If this ever happens again…”
“There won’t be a next time!”
Gu Jinglian turned around and was about to head back to his room when a thought suddenly struck him. He said to Uncle Fu, “If that little guy asks who made this, tell him you did!”
“How could I steal credit from Old Master?”
“Just do as I say.”
Gu Jinglian said icily, “Do you hear that?”
Butler Fu studied him, finally understanding. He nodded.
“If you dare to leak any information, I won’t let you off.”
“Yes, Old Master.” Butler Fu narrowed his eyes meaningfully and sized up Gu Jinglian’s uncomfortable expression.
He understood.
Old Master must have felt that staying up all night to help the little guy with his craft homework was too embarra.s.sing.
And the Old Master was a stubborn person who cared about looking good.
Hence, Butler Fu took this upon himself.
Waving the greeting card in his hand, Baby Chu went looking for Chu He. He informed her happily, “Mommy, look, Butler Fu helped me make a greeting card. Doesn’t it look so good?”
She looked at the greeting card in his hand. The front cover of the greeting card was simple but exquisite. When she flipped it open, the life-like little kitten appeared.
However, Baby Chu said that Butler Fu made it?
She didn’t think so!
It was probably because Gu Jinglian felt that it was too embarra.s.sing for him to spend the night helping a child make a greeting card, so he said it was Butler Fu who did it.
It was hard to imagine that a man like him would make such a cute greeting card. It just did not match up.
Baby Chu suddenly said regretfully, “If only Uncle was the one who made it!”
Chu He was puzzled to hear this and asked, “Why?”
“Because…” Baby Chu hugged the card and pouted. “I just wish that Uncle made this card!”
“Why do you wish Uncle made this greeting card?”
Chu He squatted down with interest, only to see Baby Chu looking at her bashfully, as if he was too embarra.s.sed to answer.
“Because…”
Because…
He liked Uncle!
Therefore, if it was something made by Uncle, he would surely cherish it even more.
