Chapter 581: Too Young, Bao Gucheng Can’t Bring Himself to Do It
Mr. Gu heard that Lao Bo was serious about setting up a matchmaking date for Bao Gucheng and was quite excited.After all, Bao Gucheng was a child he watched grow up, and even apprenticed under him for a time, forming a deep teacher-student bond.
He lowered his voice: "Lao Bo, should you tell the girl about Gucheng’s leg issue before the matchmaking?"
"Oh, how can you bring that up right away? Let them meet and see if there’s a spark first, then we’ll talk."
"True. It would be good to confess after feelings have developed; otherwise, what if she dislikes Gucheng for not being able to have kids?"
"Exactly, wasn’t I telling that rascal to settle down sooner instead of braving storms and bullets every day? And now look—he’s injured, and it’s hard to find a match!"
"Actually, I see Gucheng is quite popular out there; in that voting for the Empire’s women’s dream guy, he ranks higher than those movie kings—first place every year. He gives girls a sense of security!"
"Oh, those young girls just fancy his looks. Who truly wants to marry him? A marriage partner needs to be chosen carefully, right? Speaking of which, how’s your granddaughter? Didn’t you say she celebrated your birthday in the Imperial Capital?"
Talking about Xi Zuzi, Mr. Gu beamed with joy: "She’s doing absolutely great!"
"Hey, Lao Gu, how about my Gucheng dating your granddaughter?"
"No way! Didn’t we say last time there’s a generation gap in their age?"
Lao Bo felt a bit uncomfortable about his son being considered too old: "Your granddaughter is also quite young. What if they do meet and like each other? Then Gucheng wouldn’t be able to handle being with such a young girl, it’s really not suitable."
At this moment.
"Unable to handle being with" little girl Bao Gucheng was holding Xi Zuzi, sitting on the sofa, doing their nightly must-watch event—The little Herbal Fish livestream.
This was Xi Rubao’s debut show after switching to "Youth Science Popularization Live Stream."
She was quite nervous.
After all, she was a well-known host with tens of millions of fans.
She wasn’t sure if she could joke around as freely as before—
"Hi, dear fish fans, it’s impressive that you all found your way to this new place, you little detectives! I heard today many people got explosive scores on their level four exams? I’m so envious of that, it reminds me of when I didn’t learn the secret of English back then, it was like this—"
"I asked my deskmate, the chubby guy, what class we had next? He said, ’Chinese.’ Then I understood, oh, it’s English class. And then I got death stares from my deskmate all through high school!"
"After I grasped the secret of English, I was just like all of you, breaking through like nothing, completely excited and diligent, getting up at 5am every day to memorize!"
"Sadly, I have a mom who drags me back. I asked Mom to wake me at five, but in the end... when I woke up at nearly seven, about to be late for school, I saw Mom had sent a WeChat message at five saying ’time to get up’? Who else has the same kind of mom? Raise your hand!"
The whole livestream was filled with hahaha.
Xi Rubao was no longer nervous.
Being your most genuine self and doing the most authentic performance was indeed the most popular path.
Once the atmosphere warmed up, Xi Rubao moved onto the main topic: "Since we’re in the Science Popularization room, let Herbal Fish first explain the true forms of the Ancient Gods. Do you all know the true form of Nuwa? What, some of you still say it’s a snake? No, the correct answer is a dragon! ... Let me quiz you with another rare one, what’s the true form of The Queen Mother of the West? Haha, it’s a leopard tail with tiger teeth, definitely a hot-tempered fashionista tiger-leopard lady!"
