Chapter 38 38. Fragrance

Chapter 38 38. Aroma

Early the next morning, Gu Qingjiu went downstairs to have breakfast and saw Gu Wenjin reading the newspaper on the sofa.

"Coming?" Gu Wenjin glanced at her and continued to drink coffee.

"Where is grandpa?" Gu Qingjiu glanced around, but there was no sign of Mr. Gu.

"Grandpa got up early and went to do morning exercises." It was rare that Gu Chengche didn't quarrel with her like before, and he spoke particularly diligently.

Gu Qingjiu glanced at him, said nothing, and sat down to eat breakfast in silence.

"Uh...I broke into your room by mistake yesterday. I'm sorry."

Gu Chengche thought of how hostile he was to Gu Qingjiu before and didn't know how to ease the relationship with her. Seeing that she didn't speak, he tried to find a topic on his own.

"...That was the house you had been living in. I just occupied your room. There is no need to apologize to me." Gu Qingjiu took a sip of black tea without looking at him.

"No, no, no, I'm just used to living in that room. That room is not mine to begin with. Anyway... I'm sorry."

The atmosphere became awkward for a while, and the three of them finished their breakfast in silence. When Gu Wenjin got up to go to the company, Gu Qingjiu rushed to him and stopped him:

"Uncle, how is Chuchu...how is she?"

Gu Wenjin adjusted his sleeves, and a strange and fresh fragrance penetrated into Gu Qingjiu's nose. He spoke slowly:

"Lao Wu took her home. She has had a high fever since she was picked up from the water. You can go and see her when you have time."

"...Thank you."

Gu Qingjiu took a step back and made way for Gu Wenjin to leave.

After Gu Wenjin left, Gu Chengche looked at Gu Qingjiu who had been in a daze and asked doubtfully: "What's wrong with you?"

"...It doesn't taste like this."

Gu Qingjiu couldn't get the answer he wanted, and was in a bad mood, so he casually prevaricated: "It's nothing."

Then, she suddenly asked for no reason: "Are you free today?"

Gu Chengche thought that the other party was still angry with him and a little sad. When he heard her asking, he immediately became energetic:

"Of course I'm free!"

——

Gu Chengche looked at the door in front of him, a little dull.

What just happened...?

Oh, right.

He looked at Gu Qingjiu beside him, who had already rang the doorbell. There was a small wooden sign hanging above the doorbell.

It says "Pool" on it.

Gu Chi opened the door and saw his niece and nephew, his eyes lit up visibly: "It's you guys here, please come in quickly."

Even though the dark circles under her eyes were telling them how tired she was these past two days.

Gu Qingjiu and Gu Chengche walked into the house.

The main business of Gu Chi's company is abroad, so her home is also abroad. In China, she only bought an apartment.

The house is not big, but it is very clean. The main colors are very modern black and white and gray, which lacks a touch of warmth of home. But I have to say that Gu Chi is indeed an art major and has good taste. Although the house is small, it is very well designed.

feel.

"How is Chu Chu?" Gu Qingjiu put down the gift she brought on the table. Gu Chi nodded and thanked her:

"She is much better now. Her fever has gone down. She just woke up and was still talking nonsense, like "time travel" and the like..." Gu Chi shook his head worriedly: "The doctor checked it and said

There is nothing wrong with her head, but the strange words she said... are incomprehensible."

"Time travel?!"

Gu Qingjiu seemed to be illuminated by something, her eyes flickered: "Fifth Aunt, could it be convenient for us to go see her?"
