Chapter 871 - 874: Why Should She Lead Me by the Nose!
Gu Shaocheng met his gaze and looked at his younger brother’s rare loss of composure, then pointed to the ticket office with his hand, "Is Toronto far from Vancouver? It’s not like you’re leaving the planet. If you want to chase, go book your own ticket."
Before he could finish, the person in front of him rushed towards the ticket hall like a gust of wind.
Chenxing touched her hair, looking a bit alarmed, and nestled into Gu Shaocheng’s arms but then giggled.
Gu Shaocheng shook his eyebrows and tightened the hand that was resting on her waist, and doted, "Back home or do you want me to go shopping with you?"
But just as they reached the door and opened the car door, that man, swept up like a gust of wind, unexpectedly hopped in first, a scene Gu Shaocheng too hadn’t anticipated.
Chenxing peered into the car, then looked at Gu Shaocheng, eye to eye.
Why didn’t Brother Fengchi chase after him?
Gu Shaocheng patted her shoulder, opened the passenger door, let Chenxing sit inside, while he and Yan Fengchi sat together in the back.
The car eventually stopped at the Gu Family’s house.
Chenxing hadn’t been back for a while; the butler, very attentive, kept bringing all her favorite foods one by one, making Chenxing very happy. She heard that the lotus flowers in the pond had bloomed and excitedly ran over to see.
In the study, Gu Shaocheng worked on his computer engaging in simple tasks. Yan Fengchi, silent, wedged himself into an armchair, sulking while holding a military book, appearing distant but remaining silent. Gu Shaocheng couldn’t stand to see his obviously heartbroken state and put aside what he was doing.
He fetched a bottle of treasured liquor from the cabinet, poured two glasses, and advised while speaking, "If you want it, chase after it; if not, keep your spirits up and do what needs to be done. Why show this soul-lost look to anyone? It’s just a woman, if you don’t find her suitable then let her go, or simply find someone else. Can you afford to be played around by a woman and still shamelessly show me this face of heartbreak?"
Aren’t you the same when facing women? Fengchi wanted to blurt this out, his eyebrows locking tighter and tighter. Thinking about the arrogant note that woman had left, he frustratedly ran his fingers through his hair, growing more upset the more he thought about it.
Why should he be led by the nose by her?
He forcefully made himself walk back after buying the ticket, thinking angrily, "Luo Xi, you dead woman, you really think you completely have me under control, but I won’t let you have your way!"
But his whole body felt drained, as if he hadn’t eaten in days.
He suddenly found the city boring, everything felt uninteresting, and even speaking with his elder brother felt utterly tedious.
"She’s sure she’s got me completely figured out; I’ll just let her have her way!"
"Oh, so this look now isn’t one of being completely figured out?" Gu Shaocheng sipped his red wine.
Yan Fengchi downed the wine he was handed and retorted, "Do I!!"
Gu Shaocheng thought what a waste of good wine this was, as he watched his expression and couldn’t help but remind him, "You’ve got the book upside down."
Yan Fengchi slammed the upside-down book on the table and declared, "I’m going back to the army!"
He stormed out, and as another person came in with a spring in his step, he wondered aloud while walking, "What’s with Fengchi’s stiffness, did I provoke him somehow? Saying hello to him is like owing him millions, jeez!"
