Chapter 319: Chapter 318: Talking to Mommy (1)
Translator: ShinoJ
Gu Chu lied through her teeth. “This uncle invited Chuchu to drink milk tea, and Chuchu came over. Brother Cheng Qi, don’t worry. Chu Chu won’t walk away with strangers in the future. They’re not good people.”
Cheng Qi said, “Let’s go home.”
“Okay.”
Cheng Qi held Gu Chu’s hand and left through the glass revolving door. It was already dusk. The golden sun shone, stretching the figures of the two. Lin Mo watched the back of the two people indifferently, his eyes showing some interest.
“Go and investigate this little fellow called Cheng Qi. Also, send someone to secretly watch Gu Chu’s every move. Make sure to protect her well –” Lin Mo could not help but cough heavily. His face turned paler and the corners of his mouth turned red. “She’s very important to me.”
Ace of Hearts was the most important woman in his life.
The assistant quickly handed the black cup over. Lin Mo drank two mouthfuls of the liquid in the cup before he stopped coughing continuously.
A strong metallic taste was already coming out of his throat.
The familiar pain was creeping up his internal organs again.
Lin Mo had long been used to this kind of pain. He returned to the office expressionlessly and handed the paper cup that Gu Chu had drunk from to his assistant. “Send it over to make a DNA sample.”
“Yes, I’ll do it right away.”
The assistant put on his gloves and carefully took the cup.
The assistant left, leaving Lin Mo alone in the huge office. The long smile on his face disappeared, and his face was as cold as ice. The setting sun shone through the glass windows like blood.
——
On the way back, Gu Chu did not say a word.
She was thinking about Lin Mo’s purpose.
Mo would never waste his precious time to do meaningless things. He went to great lengths to find me today, just to give me the prize money from the hacking competition? Just to say that he would give me the stone when I grew up?
Gu Chu’s intuition told her that he had more motives.
Gu Chu scratched her head in frustration, unable to guess Lin Mo’s true motives.
Cheng Qi, who was driving beside him, looked over and frowned. What exactly did Chuchu and Lin Mo talk about?
Cheng Qi and Gu Chu returned to the hotel with their own thoughts. Cheng Qi had already asked someone to bring the gifts that Gu Chu had bought at the mall back to the hotel. Gu Chu entered the house and found that Lin Xiaozhou had already left early. On the other hand, Zhao Yan seemed to be in a good mood. He even used the kitchen in the suite to cook a delicious dinner.
The corners of his mouth were curled up.
Gu Chu could not help but be curious. What exactly did her uncle and Lin Xiaozhou talk about? Why did her uncle’s mood suddenly improve…
“Uncle, Chuchu is back.” Gu Chu ran into the house and pretended to look around. “Strange, where is Brother Xiaozhou?”
Zhao Yan put down his chopsticks and called everyone over for dinner. “Xiaozhou went home.”
“Then will Brother Xiaozhou come back to the capital with us?” Gu Chu asked pitifully, her big eyes flashing with desire, “Chuchu likes to play games with Brother Xiaozhou. It would be great if he could stay in our house forever.”
Zhao Yan said, “He will come back. Chuchu, don’t worry.”
Gu Chu was puzzled. What exactly did the two of you talk about?
Gu Chu was curious. No matter how much Gu Chu tried to beat around the bush, Zhao Yan still kept his mouth shut.
Their time in the United States was about to end. At night, Gu Chu lay on her bed and looked through her mom’s Weibo.
Gu Manxi’s Weibo followers had already exceeded one million. Song Chen had specially set up a studio for her. The staff in the studio were outstanding, and they managed Gu Manxi’s social media platform and endorsement ads very well.
Today, the studio released two daily photos of Gu Manxi, and there were more than a thousand comments below.
Gu Manxi was the kind of female celebrity that was blessed by the heavens. She did not have any plastic surgery and her face was purely natural. A single photo could stun everyone, and she had gained a lot of fans.
Gu Chu noticed that the comment that had the most likes was Zhao Manshi’s comment.
Zhao Manshi seemed to be forever active on Weibo. She had reposted and commented on Gu Manxi’s Weibo immediately after it was posted, “My sister Is so beautiful ~ (^ o ^)/~”
The corner of Gu Chu’s mouth twitched…
She browsed through other Weibo posts of Gu Manxi and found that every single Weibo post of Manxi’s would be reposted by her aunt, Zhao Manshi.. She had completely turned into Manxi’s hardcore fan.
