532: This Wasn't What You Wore In The Morning When You Left

This Wasn't What You Wore In The Morning When You Left

Every step he took felt like a drain of energy. When he arrived in front of Lin Yiqian, he intentionally raised his voice. "Why have you arrived this late?"2

At first, Lin Yiqian wanted to apologize because she really did arrive late and had wasted over an hour of his time.

However, before she could say a word, Gu Nianshen shifted his attention to the clothes she was wearing. "Did you change?"

Lin Yiqian instinctively looked down at herself.

'Oh god.' She had actually forgotten to put on the clothes she had left home with earlier in the morning.

In the past, she would get changed in the car. After getting rid of all the elements that symbolized Catwoman, she would take a shower back in the office. Today, she had returned home to shower and ended up habitually putting on clothes from her closet.

She had been far too careless.

Lin Yiqian was aware that she could not hesitate. She needed to give this fellow an excuse immediately.

While thinking, she lifted her head up to look at Gu Nianshen. "I accidentally soiled my clothes and had to change them." She then changed the topic. "You seem to pay quite close attention to me."

Her teasing tone made Gu Nianshen feel very guilty.

"Aren't you talkative?" Gu Nianshen gently flicked his finger against Lin Yiqian's nose.

However, he sounded very affectionate.

Ever since Gu Nianshen appeared, he had kept his attention on Lin Yiqian. Lin Xiaoyu was tired of being ignored.

He raised the tiny wallet in his hand up to Gu Nianshen. "Daddy, I made this wallet for you," he said hopefully with his meek voice.

Xiaoyu hoped that his 'Daddy' would like the wallet he had personally made. If his 'Daddy' liked it, that meant he would also like Xiaoyu and his 'Mommy' a lot more.

Gu Nianshen looked down at the wallet in the little fellow's hand. There were a lot of drawings of small animals on the wallet.

"What is this thing?" Gu Nianshen frowned without reaching out to accept it.

He sounded disgusted.

"I made this myself. I drew all this myself too. My teacher may have taught me how to do it," Xiaoyu said as he tried to raise it higher.

His body began to shake as if he would topple over at any moment.

It was tiring to watch.

Lin Yiqian decisively took the wallet from Xiaoyu on behalf of Gu Nianshen before handing it over to him. "He made it for you personally. Just accept it."

Gu Nianshen held onto the wallet. He began to notice that the animals on the wallet's surface were drawn rather well. There was also a button that could be unfastened to reveal two compartments inside.

It seemed to be a well-made wallet. After looking at both sides of the wallet, he actually started to think it looked quite adorable.

Gu Nianshen could not help but smile.

Suddenly, he realized what he was doing and instantly stopped smiling. "Hold onto this on your own. It's so childish." He tossed it toward Xiaoyu.

While Gu Nianshen hurriedly looked away from Xiaoyu, he began speaking impatiently to Lin Yiqian. "Hurry up and get into the car. I'm famished."

After the wallet had fallen to the ground, Xiaoyu picked it up sadly. Carefully, he used his hand to brush the dust off the surface.

Xiaoyu then looked up at Gu Nianshen who was now walking toward the car without turning his head around. "Daddy doesn't like the wallet Xiaoyu made."

Lin Yiqian felt her heart aching for him. After taking the wallet from Xiaoyu, she ran after Gu Nianshen and forcefully placed it in his hands. "Gu Nianshen, Xiaoyu told me that he had spent several hours making this wallet. Don't you think you're being too mean?" Lin Yiqian asked very softly.

After scornfully speaking to Gu Nianshen, she gave him a look.

She was hinting at him not to reject Xiaoyu.

Then, she returned to Xiaoyu's side to hold his hand. While they both walked forward, she leaned forward to smile at Xiaoyu and consoled him.

"Lin Yiqian, you…" Gu Nianshen turned his head around and was about to yell at Lin Yiqian when he saw her holding Xiaoyu's hand under the streetlights.

It was a scene that made him feel very at home. It felt so perfect that he could not bring himself to disrupt it in any way.
