The two children were excited because they had never tried to set up tents and camp at the top of the mountain at night.
"Mom, can Dad celebrate his birthday every day?" Gu Jingmeng was so excited that she didn't even wait for the man to move his chopsticks. She tore off a large piece of meat from a salted duck and began to eat.
"What nonsense are you saying?" Gu Ruoyan was amused by her childish words. "Each person only has one birthday in a year."
"Then why didn't you prepare so much for our birthday?" As Gu Jingmeng ate, she suddenly thought of something and curled her lips in dissatisfaction. "We have already celebrated five birthdays. Why haven't we had such a big meal before?"
"Ah..." Gu Ruoyan was at a loss for words. Although she had celebrated Jingmeng and Jingxi's birthday every time, she had never prepared so well.
"Mom, you are fond of Dad more than us." Gu Jingmeng rolled her eyes and smiled mysteri
Gu Jingxi was lying quietly in Li Shaojue's arms, motionless. At first glance, he thought he was asleep, but his big eyes, like obsidian, were always wide open.His eyes were so clear."Kid, are you not drunk?" Li Shaojue suspected that Gu Jingxi was pretending to be drunk. After he was in his arms, he did not make any noise and just looked at him.Li Shaojue was a little flustered from being stared at by him.He was going to put Gu Jingxi down, but Gu Jingxi's two small hands suddenly hugged his waist.Li Shaojue tugged at them twice, but they did not budge.Gu Jingxi was very determined and decided not to let go. His eyes looked at Li Shaojue's face, not moving at all.It was a look that Li Shaojue had never seen on Gu Jingxi's face.It showed a child's innocence, as well as unreserved trust."That's great," Gu Jingxi murmured again.He finally h
The villa was empty after his mother was taken away, but 15-year-old Li Shaojue did not feel the slightest difference. He still cooked frozen food for breakfast and then went to school and withdraw. Then he went to Li Group to take over the position of president of the Li Group.He had long been used to being alone, so he did not care about other people's opinions. Even on the first night he lived in the villa alone, he felt an inexplicable relaxation."Then... since you were fifteen, you have been living alone?" Gu Ruoyan found it hard to believe that such an outstanding man had such a miserable childhood."Yes. Anything is good as long as you get used to it. After that, I saved up enough money and bought an apartment outside. It's the place where you live now." Li Shaojue drank the wine in his glass and looked at the starry sky. "Just like fighting guerrilla warfare, if others want to visit or spend the night at my house, I will move t
The meteor shower that he thought would not appear suddenly became real.When Li Shaojue saw this, his eyes were a little moist."You see. Indeed, your luck is not as bad as you think." Gu Ruoyan looked at the beautiful scene in front of her. Her voice was soft as if she was talking about a warm fairy tale."..." Li Shaojue did not say anything and turned to look at Gu Ruoyan.She always appeared with miracles.This meteor shower was unusually long. After a long time, Gu Ruoyan suddenly remembered, "Well, wait, we haven't made a wish yet."After she spoke, she quickly pressed her palms together and closed her eyes, lifting her cheeks by forty-five degrees.Li Shaojue did not close his eyes and just looked at her quietly.In the night sky, there were bright silver dots of light. Gu Ruoyan's beautiful face in the night sky was like a devout young girl praying for something.
"... That's right." Gu Ruoyan rubbed her head in distress. It seemed that she had no other choice but to admit it.Gu Ruoyan's guess was correct. She called Zhan Ruomiao to explain the situation. He refuted her idea without thinking."There's no need for you to go. It is just an invitation for cooperation. It's fine if it doesn't work out. It's not like he was the only choice." Zhan Ruomiao sounded like he didn't take it seriously. "What's more, there might be a danger, so why are you still going there? Why don't I send someone to bring him to you and talk?""Don't do that. If you do that, there will be no hope of cooperation." Gu Ruoyan hurriedly stopped him. "Brother, I am taking this project seriously. Soe Ceiling is important to us. Moreover, you should be at ease if Li Shaojue goes with me.""Li Shaojue?" Zhan Ruomiao raised his eyebrows. "Didn't that man stop you?""He wasn't happy, but he didn't stop me."
The night breeze blew, and the two men stood face to face from a distance.They did not wear much. Each of them wore a shirt.The wind blew their shirts and highlighted the perfect outline of the men's muscles, and their every move could attract the attention of large groups of girls."Come on. I'll let you punch me first." Zhan Ruomiao hooked his fingers at Li Shaojue. "Have you made any progress recently?"Li Shaojue did not back down. He stabilized his center of gravity and rushed forward to punch. "You will lose today."The wind from the fist whistled through the air. The two men exchanged one round after another. They were not tired at all. After more than ten rounds, they were all sweating slightly. However, they were even more excited than before. They had no intention of stopping."Let me ask you a question." Just as they were in the middle of a fight, Zhan Ruomiao suddenly spoke up.
In a room, Gu Ruoyan and Li Shaojue sat on their beds, and no one moved. But the TV was on. It was the news channel, which was chaotic and boring, but no one turned it off.Now, there was an awkward question for them.The bathroom in this room had no door.The journey had been tiring for a day, and her entire body was sweaty. Of course, Gu Ruoyan wanted to take a good shower, but she glanced at Li Shaojue again."I told you. I won't look." The man used his phone to deal with the messages. When Gu Ruoyan looked at him countless times, he could not help but ask, "Do anything you want to do quickly."He would not see. She didn't believe him."It's already so late, and you're quite tired. Why don't you sleep?" Gu Ruoyan tried her best to persuade Li Shaojue to rest."Even if I sleep, will you be at ease?" Li Shaojue shifted his gaze from the phone to Gu Ruoyan. His eyes showed his interest.
They flagged down a taxi on the road. The driver stopped the car in front of them. Li Shaojue took her suitcase from Gu Ruoyan and was about to ask the driver to open the trunk when the driver took the initiative to get out of the car."Do you need help?" His face was full of smiles. Before they nodded, he helped Li Shaojue carry the suitcase.Soon, he quickly took the suitcase into the trunk. Li Shaojue and Gu Ruoyan got into the car."May I ask where you are going?" the driver asked, looking back.He was already in his fifties, and his face was full of amiable smiles, which made Gu Ruoyan feel very kind."Do you know where Professor Soe Ceiling lives?" Gu Ruoyan asked with a smile."Well... I'm not too sure about this." The driver scratched his head. "But you are lucky. Teacher Soe Ceiling said he would make the final closing speech in a circus show.""Really?" Gu Ruoyan's eyes were a
"There is no such arrangement," the girl confirmed again. "He is so famous. He usually does not come to such a small occasion.""That's strange," Gu Ruoyan muttered to herself. Even the taxi driver knew about the personnel arrangements. He was such an important person. Shouldn't it be a tourist attraction for publicity?Li Shaojue, who was beside her, heard everything."If we can't find Soe Ceiling, we will leave here tonight," he said to Gu Ruoyan in Chinese."Ah, why?" Gu Ruoyan's first reaction was to refuse. "It's only been a day. There's still hope.""The environment is strange." Li Shaojue had now confirmed his speculation."What do you mean?"Li Shaojue looked around to alert. After being sure there was no intentional gaze, he said in a low voice, "First of all, almost all the people here are old. All the people with fixed professions are very old. They have a healthy body beyond
