Chapter 945: I Will Make It Up To You In The Future
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Black Hawk knew that he had misunderstood Gu Qigang for so many years but Gu Qigang did not think much of it and took it in stride. Gu Qigang did, in fact, feel that he had done him wrong too. He had caused him to become Black Hawk because of his momentary lack of responsibility in allowing Gu Xiande to abandon him.
He had nearly caused Black Hawk’s death. It was just that Black Hawk was very lucky and managed to survive on his own.
On that day, Black Hawk called Gu Jingze and said, “I’m leaving.”
Gu Jingze said, “Take care. I won’t bother seeing you out.”
“I will still be at the headquarters. You can look for me if you need anything.”
“I don’t need anything from you for the time being.”
“Ha. As your older brother, you must need me for something,” Black Hawk said.
Gu Jingze said indifferently, “You’re not my older brother. Don’t be mistaken.”
“But I’m Lin Che’s older brother, so that means I’m your older brother too.”
“…”
“Alright. I’ll hang up first. Contact me if you need anything. I’ll go and visit Lin Che after resting for a few days.”
“…”
Lin Che came out while ruffling her hair. “Who called?”
“Your older brother.”
“…” Lin Che said skeptically, “Which older brother…”
Gu Jingze threw his phone down. “The difficult one.”
“Ah. Are you referring to Black Hawk?” Lin Che sat down. She still felt a little strange. She suddenly had parents and siblings. She even got two older brothers in one go.
She sighed, feeling that life had suddenly become so complicated.
She collapsed onto the bed immediately and asked, “Why do I feel that my life thus far was meaningless? Only now do I know who I am and who my parents are.”
Gu Jingze lifted her hair. “Don’t lie down like that. You will get a headache.”
He held her up and gently picked up a towel to dry her hair.
Lin Che said, “Wow. It feels so good. Why don’t you blow-dry it for me too?”
“…” Gu Jingze asked, “Are you treating me as a maid?”
“As just a hairdresser. What maid?”
“…” Why did it sound strange?
Lin Che lifted her slender and long legs. “Don’t all husbands have to serve their wives? And they must give all-rounded service, anything their wives want. Quick, go. There’s a hairdryer in the bathroom.”
She landed a kick on Gu Jingze’s thigh.
Gu Jingze looked at this lazy woman in disbelief. But he was quite willing to serve her.
He walked towards her with the hairdryer in hand and said, “The hairdresser is here. Are you still not going to get up?”
Hearing this, Lin Che nearly spluttered.
She turned around and saw Gu Jingze with a bitter expression on his face as he brought the hairdryer over.
She howled in laughter and quickly sat upright so that Gu Jingze could blow-dry her hair.
Gu Jingze plugged it into the socket and gathered her hair together.
He looked at her while using the blowdryer. “This temperature is okay, right?”
“Yes, yes.” Lin Che sighed in pleasure, feeling his slender and long fingers caress her hair.
Lin Che felt extremely comfortable. She did not expect him to be quite talented in this aspect. He was a self-made genius. While blow-drying her hair, he could even disentangle her hair for her and gently ma.s.sage her.
Gu Jingze asked, “How does it feel? Does it feel good?”
“It’s good, good.”
“Hn. As long as it feels good. Remember to come here again next time.”
“Hehe. I will definitely come again. In the future, I will ask for your services when I come to your shop.”
“…”
Gu Jingze looked at Lin Che who had gotten addicted to being a customer. “In that case, since you think highly of me, why don’t you just sponsor me?”
Lin Che turned around the moment she heard this and looked him up and down.
Gu Jingze stood upright and looked at her from high above. Although he was in loungewear, he still looked so stately. His gaze was gentle and exuded a stream of warmth. She felt as if she was being bathed in a sea of love.
Gu Jingze lowered his head and stuck his hand under her clothes. “What do you think? After looking at me, do you think I’m qualified enough to be sponsored?”
He was qualified enough. Of course, he was qualified enough.
A hairdresser like this would probably not last half a day in the hair salon before some rich woman took him away.
Furthermore, there would be many women who would fight over him.
Lin Che said, “Whether you’re qualified enough… I still need to see if your skills are good.”
She raised her eyebrows suggestively and Gu Jingze’s eyes twitched.
He asked, “In that case, do you want to give my skills a try before deciding whether or not to sponsor me?”
“Hehe. How should we do that?”
“We’ll do as you say.” While speaking, Gu Jingze extended his arms under her arms and pushed her down onto the bed in one swift motion.
“Aiyo. I was just making a remark. You can’t just do as you please.”
“I’ve always done as I pleased~”
“Get lost. What kind of hairdresser behaves like you? I’m not sponsoring you. I’m not…”
“We have a no-refund policy!”
“…”
The next day, Lin Che was just about to get up when she received a call from Lu Qinyu.
Over the phone, he asked, “Little Che, do you have time? Can I go to visit you?”
“…” Lin Che still found it a little strange and wanted to reject him.
“Little Che, I know that I’ve made many mistakes. I just wanted to talk to you about it and give you an explanation, so that you can understand what exactly happened to us back then. I think you have the right to know too.”
Lin Che sighed and said, “Alright. I’ll go and visit you.”
“Sure, sure. Come to the Lu residence. I’ll send someone to pick you up.”
“No need, no need. It’s not as if I don’t know how to get to the Lu residence. I can take the chance to visit Jingyan too.”
“That’s true. The Gu family should have a driver. In that case, I’ll wait for you here, Little Che.”
Lin Che had no choice but to head to the Lu residence.
The moment she arrived at the entrance to the Lu residence, someone came out to greet her.
“Young Miss is here. Come quickly, come quickly. Greet Young Miss.”
“…” Lin Che wanted to ask why they were in formation.
Upon seeing a crowd of people lined up on both sides to welcome her, she immediately felt a little lost for words.
Lin Che said, “You guys are…”
Everyone bowed together. “Young Miss, welcome back home.”
“…” Lin Che hastily said, “Hey, hey, hey. I’m not your Young Miss. You must be mistaken.”
“Young Miss. We know everything. You’re our Young Miss. Young Miss, come in quickly. Old Master has been waiting inside for a long time.”
While saying this, they came up to her enthusiastically and escorted her in.
Lin Che had a troubled expression on her face. She could not deal with such enthusiasm. She walked in and saw as she had expected that it was bustling with excitement inside. It looked as if the place had been meticulously decorated for Christmas.
Lin Che saw that Lu Qinyu was still leaning on his walking cane. It seemed that his health was not great. He quickly came over when he saw Lin Che. “Little Che, come here quickly.”
“Uncle Lu…”
Lu Qinyu froze. He was a little disappointed but nevertheless started smiling soon thereafter. Then, he said, “Little Che, I know that you’re still not used to it. You don’t believe it either and you can’t accept it but all of this doesn’t matter. It’s just a formality. The important thing is that I want to make it up to you in the future while I still can. I can’t turn back time but I hope that I can protect you as a father should in the future.”
Lin Che looked at him and momentarily did not know how to respond.
Lu Qinyu said, “Come, treat this place like your house. Sit wherever you like.”
