Upon hearing Elevenâs decibel level, Cute raised an eyebrow, trying to hide a smile.
It seems that no matter what happened, a couple of people are bound to be scolded~
Upon hearing this, Gu Liancheng realized Eleven must have overheard something, he continued to say, "Nevertheless...we are both safe now."
"Just because youâre safe, you think you can keep it from me!?"
Gu Liancheng muttered on the other end of the phone, "Iâm going to find out who has been slacking off and tweeting at work. Weâll take it out of their year-end bonus." This must be an internal message.
"Donât even try!" Upon hearing that they were both safe, Eleven was no longer that angry. She calmed down and said, "If it wasnât for that personâs tweet, I still wouldnât know whatâs happened."
"We were just worried about scaring you, so we agreed not to tell you."
They made an agreement?
Before Eleven could say anything, she heard a tiny voice on the other end of the phone, saying, "Give it to me, let me talk."
The phone was passed to Jiujiu.
For once, Eleven stood her ground and said, "Fang Jiujiu, donât you think you shouldâve told me what happened immediately? Is there anything you want to say now?"
"I only have three things to say. First, Iâm okay. Second, my dad is okay. Third, see you tonight."
"..."
Is that all?
Wait a minute...
Dad?
Did Jiujiu just say âdadâ?
Eleven blinked, a bit stunned.
After hanging up, Gu Liancheng couldnât help but chuckle. "Naughty boy..."
Jiujiu silenced her with just a few words, making Gu Liancheng ponder for a while before saying, "I guess... I need to find a different approach."
To win Gu Qianxun over, being affectionate alone isnât enough.
...
Standing in front of the familiar Sea View Villa, Eleven was lost in thought.
When she signed the papers and left this place, she was filled with worry, thinking that she would never return. But now, she was back.
Cute tugged at her hand, "Eleven, why are you spacing out again? Weâve still got places to go."
"Letâs go," Eleven smiled and nodded at Cute, "Letâs go in."
Before they could ring the doorbell, the door opened. Aunt Fang stood at the entrance, incredibly delighted to see them, "I guessed it was you two coming home the moment I heard the sound of the car!"
"Aunt Fangâ" Seeing a familiar face, Eleven stepped forward and gave her a hug, "Itâs been so long since Iâve seen you."
"Indeed! I thought weâd never see each other again."
"Hello, Grandma Fang!" Cute greeted sweetly.
"You must be Miss Mengmeng? Adorable!" Aunt Fang was overjoyed, "Youâll grow up to be a beauty just like Miss Fang!"
"Wait until she grows up, itâs too early to tell."
Mr. Gu passed by a few meters behind Aunt Fang and commented, "Why canât you chat inside? What are you doing standing in the doorway?"
"Mr. Gu~" Cute had already slipped through the gap, "I missed you so much today~"
Mr. Gu wasnât fooled, "You missed me, yet you didnât call all day? You were having fun with your mom and completely forgot about me, didnât you?"
Eleven also stepped in and closed the door behind her.
Standing in the doorway, everything in the house remained unchanged, except for the things she took when she left. The familiar feeling enveloped her as soon as she stepped in.
"Nothing has changed here."
Aunt Fang replied: "Yes, after Miss Fang left, the boss rarely came back. However, he ordered that nothing in the house should be moved, everything should remain the same. All we need to do is keep it clean."
