Qiao Yuxian listened to their conversation, watching Shang Chen go to the corner of the living room to place something down. As soon as he put it down, she suddenly stood up and said, "My Zhaocai." She immediately went to the first-floor bathroom to get a wet wipe, then jogged to the entrance. Seeing Zhaocai still waiting obediently for her, she felt a pang of guilt, "Zhaocai, I’m sorry. You came suddenly, and I’m still a bit not used to it, so I forgot you." Zhaocai didn’t know if it understood, but it wagged its tail and extended a paw toward her. Qiao Yuxian squatted down and used the wet wipe to clean its paw. After wiping, she brought it into the living room. Gu Yanjing looked at this Zhaocai, whom he was meeting for the first time, yet whose name had repeatedly reached his ears. Zhaocai wagged its tail, wearing a muzzle, strutting proudly and coolly beside Qiao Yuxian. It seemed to have completely forgotten there was a pink handbag hanging around its neck, which totally clashed with its current cold demeanor. Gu Yanjing read a sense of overbearing disdain for everything from its eyes. He narrowed his eyes slightly, and Zhaocai immediately looked at him, adopting an aggressive posture. "Zhaocai. That’s rude," Qiao Yuxian said. Zhaocai immediately averted its gaze. "Just shy, suddenly in an unfamiliar environment," Qiao Yuxian smiled at them, then looked at Gu Yanjing and asked, "Is keeping it okay?" Gu Yanjing glanced at Zhaocai again, feeling that this dog was not a harmless character. But seeing the expectation in Qiao Yuxian’s eyes, he paused and then said, "Hmm." "You guys chat, I’ll go settle it a bit," Qiao Yuxian found an excuse and quickly took Zhaocai away. Gu Yanjing watched Qiao Yuxian go to the side hall, retracted his gaze, and saw Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu smiling at him with their lips curled. He looked at the two of them, lowered his gaze, and said indifferently, "Finish your business and leave, I didn’t make food for you." Lin Huai Shu: "......" Chu Zhengran chuckled, "Is it that you didn’t make us food, or do you find us an eyesore?" "Good that you know," Gu Yanjing said. Such a direct way to send them off left Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu a bit speechless. After a few seconds, Lin Huai Shu leaned against Chu Zhengran and said, "Old Chu, I’m so hurt. I also want to be pampered; I also want to be spoiled like little sister-in-law is." Chu Zhengran pushed him aside, dusted off his clothes, and said, "No problem, go find yourself a boyfriend. Didn’t a male star in your company chase you for a while? He’s ready and waiting." Lin Huai Shu took a deep breath, smiled at him, then ground his teeth and said, "Old Chu, I think you’re not bad. Why don’t we make do with each other? You’re ready and waiting. What do you think?" "What? You two got together?" Before Chu Zhengran could reply, Qiao Yuxian suddenly poked her head out from the side hall, eyes shining brightly. Seeing a hint of excitement on her face, Gu Yanjing looked at her. Chu Zhengran: "......" Lin Huai Shu: "......" "Why is no one saying anything?" Qiao Yuxian clung to the door frame, looking at them, "If you don’t speak, I’ll start a rumor?" Gu Yanjing looked at her. "Little sister-in-law, you really can’t spread such rumors," Lin Huai Shu quickly stopped her, "I haven’t even been in a relationship yet, don’t cut off my future." Chu Zhengran just smiled warmly, saying nothing. Qiao Yuxian looked at him, blinked, and said slowly, "How come you’re so old yet never been in a relationship?" "Eh?! Little sister-in-law, how can you make a personal attack?" Lin Huai Shu instantly sat up, "Your Gu Yanjing hadn’t been in a relationship at my age either." Qiao Yuxian pursed her lips and said, "My Gu Yanjing was waiting for me. Who... are you waiting for?" Lin Huai Shu opened his mouth, looked at Qiao Yuxian, and couldn’t utter a single word. In the end, he just slumped on the sofa and isolated himself. Qiao Yuxian chuckled and went back to the side hall. Gu Yanjing’s eyes carried a hint of laughter. Chu Zhengran saw the smile spreading in his eyes, and after a moment, he also chuckled. This person... how many years has it been since seeing him smile? ... After dinner, Chu Zhengran and Lin Huai Shu left. The two originally didn’t plan on staying for dinner, but since Gu Yanjing told them to leave, it would’ve been impolite not to stay. When leaving, Qiao Yuxian saw them off. Since she insisted, Gu Yanjing followed her out. Once in the courtyard, they saw Shang Chen fiddling with potted plants. The trunk of the car was open; half was filled with potted plants, the other half placed in the yard. Most were carried over with pots, but some were directly uprooted, with dirt still clinging to the roots. "Woah. Did Brother Chen switch careers to selling flowers?" Lin Huai Shu exclaimed in surprise. Shang Chen stood aside, with a calm face, saying nothing. They were all used to Shang Chen being like this, chatted a bit about the potted plants, and then left.
