Chapter 535 Gu Liancheng Encounters Crisis (6)_1

"I owe him a favor..."

"A favor?"

He hadn’t even asked her about their shopping trip that day, yet she had managed to accumulate a debt!

Eleven hesitated for a moment before deciding to tell him.

She had always avoided telling Gu Liancheng because it would inevitably lead to the rooftop incident that she didn’t want to bring up.

They discussed this on the way home.

Gu Liancheng thought she was joking at first, but seeing the serious look on her face made him realize the truth.

It turned out that she had faced such danger at a time and place he was unaware of!

He immediately asked Su Bai to investigate, but Eleven told him that Gu Tianyu had already looked into it and found no leads. Plus, the incident was now so far in the past that almost all details were washed away.

"Don’t make that face, I know you’re mad at me for keeping this from you, but it’s all in the past, right? I’d rather not bring it up... Besides, with Fei’er accompanying me to and from work, there won’t be any danger."

"Is it because we’re divorced?" He guessed her thoughts. "Now you only use this excuse to keep us apart."

"Shouldn’t I? It’s right to keep us apart. For the sake of our child, and also for our own sake. You and Shang Muxue... are about to get engaged too, right?"

"That picture—"

Seeing Eleven’s expression, he smiled slightly: "That picture doesn’t really matter... The fact is just like this."

"..."

Forget it.

As the conversation turned to uncomfortable topics, the two of them remained silent all the way home.

The two little treasures were already at home. Ye Mo had driven them home. With nannies and housekeepers around, there was nothing to worry about.

At ten o’clock, they entered the living room to find the two little ones had already had their baths and were now in their pajamas, watching a drama on the couch.

A drama Cute loved to watch.

"Eleven, Mr. Gu, you’re back~" Cute jumped off the sofa and ran towards them.

""..."" Now that Mom was here, had he been pushed to the back?

"Eh... Mr. Gu, what happened to your hand? And Eleven, your neck—"

Cute’s call drew Jiujiu’s attention as well. Both of them were injured.

"Fang Eleven, what kind of disaster did your special physique attract this time?" Fang Jiujiu asked unhappily. No wonder his eyelids kept twitching with unease tonight. It turned out these two were in trouble.

Eleven looked embarrassed.

"It’s okay, sweetheart, I’m fine because your brave daddy was with me!"

Gu Liancheng did a great job today, so she had to praise him to score some points in front of their children, didn’t she?

"Wow, did Mr. Gu perform well today? Did he successfully protect Eleven?" Cute looked up at him, "Carry me, carry me!"

Despite his injured right hand, carrying a child single-handedly was still an easy task. So he lifted her up.

Cute suddenly gave him a big "smack" on his face, leaving him somewhat pleasantly surprised.

This little girl, she never took the initiative to kiss him before.

Getting a kiss from his daughter made the injury he suffered tonight worthwhile!

"This is a reward!"

"But Eleven still got hurt." Fang Jiujiu’s eyes moved to Eleven’s neck.

Eleven went to sit on the sofa, pulling Jiujiu into her lap, and spoke patiently, "Mommy has just got a small wound, it will heal in a few days. If it weren’t for your daddy, mommy might not have been able to come back to see you today, and I wouldn’t be able to hold my adorable Jiujiu now..."
