Although Gu Zhishen didn’t say anything, he moved closer in front of her face. His thin lips ticked up slightly, and the meaning went without saying!
Phwwhht-phwooh! Yu Jinjiu blew a whistle, and looked as if he was watching a good show when he looked at this scene.
Bai Changan curled his lips in disdain. “You can torture us single dogs to death! Just wait and see who’ll work like an ox or horse for you in the future!”
Yu Jinjiu said, “Second, dogs will get upset if you call yourself a single dog. Dogs don’t have a life span as long as yours! You should be a single turtle!”
Bai Changan rolled his eyes at him, “Third, you’re the one who’s a turtle! You’re the most turtle!”
Gu Anyang, who had been singing, seemed to have felt there was something fun going on over here. She immediately ran over and, not feigning politeness, sat her butt next to Mo Boqing. She took the lead in saying, “Fourth, let me also give you a lucky kiss.”
There was no expression on Mo Boqing’s tight contour. His stern eyes only blinked indifferently at Gu Anyang. She immediately lowered her head and, feeling embarrassed, said, “I’m just joking!”
Mo Boqing didn’t say anything. His gaze shot toward Gu Zhishen and Yun Jianyue, who seemingly were also waiting to watch a good show!
The atmosphere suddenly turned subtle and mysterious. Under everyone’s gaze, she couldn’t take the initiative to kiss Gu Zhishen no matter what. She wasn’t familiar enough with him to do this and also couldn’t get past the barrier in her heart.
There were so many people. She also couldn’t let him lose face in front of his close brothers and sister, right?!
Yun Jianyue’s brain turned and thought of a compromise. She kissed her own finger and then used the finger to touch his cheek. “Giving you good luck! However, I want to make it clear that I don’t have luck in gambling!”
The men couldn’t see Yun Jianyue take the initiative to kiss Gu Zhishen and felt both disappointed and happy. Happy because they could see Gu Zhishen’s unfulfilled look!
Gu Zhishen’s black eyebrows slightly tightened. Although he was dissatisfied with her perfunctory “luck,” he also knew her courage was smaller than sesame. It wasn’t so bad that she could even reach this step. She was probably concerned about his reputation. Otherwise, she absolutely wouldn’t be able to take such an action.
His thin lips ticked up, and he went to touch the tile while holding her hand.
Each of them suddenly held their breaths and looked at each other. Bai Changan widened his eyes as he looked anxiously at Gu Zhishen and Yun Jianyun’s hands. “It probably wouldn’t be beyond expectation!”
“If it really is beyond expectation, you’ll have to eat the mahjong tiles!” Gu Zhishen looked at him disdainfully out of the corner of his eye.
Bai Changan was still very confident. “I’ll eat it! I bet you won’t be so lucky!”
Just as his voice disappeared, Gu Zhishen’s eyes lit up. While holding Yun Jianyue’s hand, he placed the tile on the table. His voice was deep but filled with boldness, “Win by my own draw!”
The room instantly became weirdly quiet. Gu Anyang was sitting beside Mo Boqing. Her mouth opened in shock into an inelegant O shape!
The manager knocked on the door; the food Bai Changan ordered was delivered. Gu Zhishen’s big palm tightly held Yun Jianyue’s slim waist. While she was completely oblivious to what was happening, he kissed her once on the cheek. “Baby, you really are my lucky charm! Let’s go have dinner.”
Yun Jianyue regained her senses and her ears started boiling. She stretched out her hand and covered the part of her cheek he kissed. For some strange reason, her heart started becoming restless.
She couldn’t tell if it was because she was angry or embarrassed!
How could he kiss her in front of so many people!
Gu Zhishen was basically half-hugging Yun Jianyue as they went to the restaurant to have dinner. Before they left, he even told the dumbstruck Bai Changan, “Remember to finish eating the mahjong tile!”
When Bai Changan came to his senses, he looked at Yu Jinjiu, Mo Boqing, and Gu Anyang. Each of them was looking at him with sympathetic eyes.
“I don’t believe something so unexpected would actually happen!” Bai Changan went to pick up the only unplaced mahjong tile on Gu Zhishen’s table. He grabbed it and took a look, his fingers loosened, and the mahjong tile fell with a tinkling sound on the clean table.
He felt such despair that he almost fainted.
Yu Jinjiu got up, walked past beside Bai Changan, patted his shoulder, and sincerely said, “Cherish your life; stay away from Eldest Brother. I’ve said this for many years. Why is it that you just can’t remember it?”
Sigh, leave!
Mo Boqing got up, patted his shoulder and said two words, “Take care!”
Gu Anyang stopped for a while, and the eyes that were looking at Bai Changan were filled with sympathy. “Even my aunt doesn’t dare to provoke Eldest Brother. You actually dare to pluck a hair out of the tiger’s ass. Second, really nicely done!”
She gave Bai Changan a big thumbs up and clicked like. He really deserved praise for his courage!
Everyone left and Bai Changan was alone. He looked at the mahjong tile on the table. A crash sounded, and he lay facedown on the mahjong table, stiff like a corpse, and he pretended to be dead.
Yun Jianyue and Gu Zhishen went to the dining table first to sit down. They naturally sat next to each other, and Yun Jianyue said to him in a lowered voice, “Why did you kiss me in front of so many people!”
Gu Zhishen’s sharp eyebrows raised and asked back at her, “Does that mean I can kiss you when there’s no one?”
Yun Jianyue was speechless for a short while. She turned her head and ignored him.
Big President, I’m really unable to communicate with you!
While they were eating, Gu Anyang sat near Mo Boqing. Her gaze vaguely swept over toward Yun Jianyue as if examining her or something.
Gu Zhishen felt something and shot a cold light over. Gu Anyang immediately became well-behaved and lowered her head.
“Eat more.” Gu Zhishen felt Yun Jianyue was too light, so he grabbed some chicken for her.
There were people, so it wouldn’t be good for Yun Jianyue to make him lose face. She said thank you and ate obediently.
Gu Anyang saw this and lifted up her head to say to Mo Boqing, “Fourth, I want to eat chicken!”
Mo Boqing indifferently swept his gaze at her and asked, “You don’t have hands?”
“I want to eat. Take some chicken for me!” Gu Anyang acted coquettishly.
Mo Boqing disregarded her coquettish acts completely.
Bang. Gu Anyang slammed the chopsticks on the table and said in an unruly way, “If you won’t take it for me, then I won’t eat.”
The atmosphere at the table was obviously awkward. Yun Jianyue looked at Gu Zhishen, somewhat embarrassed. However, Gu Zhishen and Yu Jinjiu looked as though they were used to it. Gu Zhishen continued to grab food for Yun Jianyue. “Eat.”
Not at ease, Yun Jianyue looked at Mo Boqing and Gu Anyang. She was really worried they’d start fighting!
Yu Jinjiu explained to her in a lowered voice, “Sister-in-law, you can relax. They always fight for a few days every month!”
He gave a look of you know why to Yun Jianyue!
Yun Jianyue despaired, What the hell do I know?
Mo Boqing swept a glance at Yun Jianyue out of the corner of his eye. He raised his sharp eyebrows and looked at Gu Anyang. His deep and cold voice was filled with a warning, “Little Fifth Gu!”
It was because Gu Anyang was the youngest amongst them and her name was very masculine. Most of the time, they called her “Little Fifth Gu” or “Little Fifth.”
“Fourth! Brother! Mo!” Not to be outdone, Gu Anyang shouted back. Weren’t they just comparing who was louder? Who was afraid of who?
The veins on Mo Boqing’s forehead were already faintly discernible. The atmosphere was about to reach a state of mutual hostility. Suddenly a pair of chopsticks moved into her bowl. “It’s only just a piece of chicken! Come, Second will give you the entire plate of chicken to you!”
Bai Changan promptly appeared and broke the deadlock.
Gu Anyang cast a glance at the chicken Bai Changan took for her and then looked at Mo Boqing’s usual expression of being as cold as a rock. Her white teeth bit down on her pink lips, and she didn’t say a word. She got up and then just ran out.
“Anan…” Yun Jianyue got up and wanted to chase after her, but Gu Zhishen grabbed her.
“Sit down.”
“But…”
“There’s already someone chasing after her!”
Yun Jianyue lifted her head to look. The person who got up and chased after her was Bai Changan. And Mo Boqing was sitting there, unconcerned.
Only Yu Jinjiu still had a good appetite and continued to eat.
How awkward!
“I’m going to the restroom for a while.”
Yun Jianyue didn’t wait for Gu Zhishen to say there was one in the private room, and she’d already gotten up and ran out.
However, if Yun Jianyue had known she would run into Su Xu when she ran out, she thought she would have been more willing to stay in the same space as Gu Zhishen.
