Chapter 417: Chapter 419: Video Call
Less than an hour later, Gu Tiantian returned to the villa.
After arriving at the villa, Mrs. Chen went into the kitchen to start making dinner, faster than usual.
Because in the car, Gu Tiantian told her that Bai Chenyao was waiting to have dinner with her.
At first, Mrs. Chen thought it was the sir who had returned, but then quickly realized the timing was off. Although puzzled, she swiftly went into the kitchen to cook.
When Mrs. Chen had the food set on the table, Gu Tiantian checked the time—it was ten minutes earlier than Bai Chenyao had expected.
Sitting in the chair, Gu Tiantian first took a sip of the rich soup, then picked up the phone, deciding to call Bai Chenyao slightly ahead of schedule.
This way, he might be a little happier, right?
Before her call went through, a beautiful maid walked over with a computer.
"Miss Gu, sir asked to bring this computer over and said to use it."
Gu Tiantian looked at it, the muscles at the corner of her mouth twitched.
The moment her mouth twitched, she saw the computer screen in the beautiful maid’s hands already displaying the video interface.
Noticing her own QQ account already logged in, Gu Tiantian looked at the beautiful maid in astonishment.
The beautiful maid’s smile was as gentle as ever, and her voice was equally soft.
"Miss Gu, you can chat with sir directly now."
After saying that, the beautiful maid placed the computer on the dining table, positioning it right in front of Gu Tiantian, offered a very gentle smile at Gu Tiantian, and then turned to leave.
Gu Tiantian felt like she almost didn’t know what expression to put on.
Her QQ account, only she knew the password, okay?
But now, it was clearly in a logged-in state.
And, it was already in a video call with Bai Chenyao.
She saw herself in the lower right corner of the video, while the large screen showed a table with dishes on it, and the opposite chair was still empty.
Gu Tiantian didn’t know how she felt, but she knew she had to compose herself before Bai Chenyao arrived.
Just as she adjusted her mood, Gu Tiantian saw the sharply dressed, handsome and cold Bai Chenyao coming over from the back.
Someone behind him pulled out the chair for him, and then she saw him sit down with a regal elegance, like an emperor.
Feeling her mouth twitch again, Gu Tiantian quickly lowered her head, pretending to reach for the chopsticks, avoiding Bai Chenyao’s cold and intense gaze.
Even though that person wasn’t physically present, the moment she saw him in the video, Gu Tiantian inexplicably felt a chill in her heart.
She had no control over this feeling.
Probably because she’d been so strongly suppressed by Bai Chenyao, it had become a conditioned reflex.
When she looked up again, Gu Tiantian had put on a smiling face, her eyes curved.
"A Yao, feels like I haven’t seen you in ages."
Bai Chenyao sat there indifferently, his dark eyes sharp, almost making Gu Tiantian lose her composure.
"Miss me?"
Bai Chenyao had no intention of eating right away, sitting there with an indifferent expression as he looked at her.
Yes, she’d love it if he never showed up in front of her again.
With her cheeks slightly flushed, Gu Tiantian’s eyes flickered.
"Yes, being with you all the time before, and now suddenly not having you around, feels... feels a bit uneasy."
After speaking, Gu Tiantian quickly diverted her gaze, lowered her head to pick up some food, concealing the feeling of disgust she had brought upon herself.
On the other side of the video, Bai Chenyao saw the fleeting shyness on Gu Tiantian’s doll-like face and her flustered nervousness as she said she missed him.
