Chapter 581: Chapter 253: Gu Tongshu and Wang Zhi, One Knife Each_2
Pfft!
This blow, it hurts too much.
Gu Tongshu was so angry that he jumped up and yelled, "Our relationship is the same? What are you daydreaming about, you!"
"That’s true."
Chu Yan seriously considered it, then suddenly nodded her head in enlightenment, "Miss and Su Huai can sleep together, but I’m just your personal assistant... Yeah, that makes sense."
Oh... my god...
Gu Tongshu shook with rage, pointing at Chu Yan, unable to even utter a ’fuck’.
This isn’t a knife; it’s a nuke.
Gu Tongshu felt that if he opened his mouth, black smoke would definitely billow from his lungs, the burnt kind.
You’re all tired, just go to hell, together!
Before Gu Tongshu could find a handy tool to vent his anger, Chu Yan decisively took the opportunity to flee.
She wasn’t afraid of the BOSS getting angry at all, because from the very beginning, she was selected for not being a brown-noser. Wealthy people don’t generally like to find personal assistants to restrain them, but once they decide to hire one, they are likely to choose a "frank advisor" with a challenging spirit.
Using Gu Tongshu’s own words, "I already have enough sycophants around me. If a personal assistant also only knows how to flatter and give me whatever I ask for, then what’s the difference between you and the close attendants from the past?"
People like Gu need a close-range interception net, not a pure slave who tries every means to please him.
Chu Yan knew this very well, so...
That poke felt so good!
Chu Yan was thrilled, Wang Yuqing could only be more delighted.
Wang slapped down the phone and immediately burst into laughter like a withered chrysanthemum.
"Ga ga ga ga..."
Nothing good, like an elder of the Soul Hall.
Gu Jiuyue heard more than half of the conversation and sighed with annoyance—home with one overgrown child, one jealous jar, life is so hard for me.
Then before she could start making tea, Wang suddenly waved his hand, "Sweet granddaughter, today let’s brew the Red Seal tea cake, give Young Su some good stuff!"
Gu Jiuyue couldn’t help but feel a mix of laughter and tears.
"Grandfather, we’re about to eat; you two shouldn’t drink such strong tea!"
If it wasn’t for considering your health, I would have given you your most expensive tea cake a long time ago, okay?
"Oh, that’s true..."
Wang Yuqing, reigned in and sullen, finally calmed down a bit.
But the excitement hadn’t faded, and the joy was still surging.
"Young Su, you are still the worst, mentioning stimulating Gu Tongshu, you’re the one!
Su Huai glanced at Wang’s thumbs up and decisively shook his head, "What are you talking about? I don’t understand. The one who made the call and cursed was you; you’re flipping the blame on me?"
"Wow!"
Wang laughed in resignation, shaking his head, "You really are... a little thief, I’m coming to appreciate you more and more for being able to deal with the wolf cub!"
"You’re swearing again!"
Gu Jiuyue stopped what she was doing and glared, and Wang Yuqing immediately smiled, made a bow, and signaled that he was in the wrong.
Su Huai timely added fuel to the fire, "Tsk tsk tsk, a Tsinghua professor, an academician of both academies..."
Hearing this, Gu took back the tea leaves she was about to give to grandfather and pushed the previously made cold tea back to him instead.
"You should stick to this one, to cool down!"
Wang Yuqing, fuming and glaring with trembling fingers pointed at Su Huai, "Whose side are you on? Why are you everywhere fanning the flames?"
Gou Huai lounged on the sofa, let out a light chuckle, "If I’m not on Gu’s side, who should I trust, you two? Do you need a reminder of your place in the family?"
Pfft!
This blow, it struck right at the heart of Wang Yuqing.
Wang felt a tingling numbness on his scalp, and the more he thought about it, the more it seemed off—this puppy was respectful earlier, but after I finished with Gu Tongshu he turned on me immediately; what kind of behavior is this?!
Am I just a toy poodle for you to tease?!
Well, Su Huai didn’t mean it, but it did seem a bit like walking a dog...
Who’s to blame?
It’s all Gu’s spoiling!
Seeing his beloved granddaughter not upset at all, but laughing till she shook, Wang Yuqing was utterly helpless.
He couldn’t get the better of her, couldn’t intimidate her; still, he hoped he could see Gu Tongshu getting sorted out to relieve his frustration. What could an old man do?
Let it be, let it be; consider the bear child part of your own family and endure.
When Cheng LiHua finished cooking and called them to the table, Wang conscientiously put on a smile and even took the initiative to serve Su Huai a bowl of rice.
Fooling around is one thing, but Su Huai definitely couldn’t accept an elder serving him rice; he gave his bowl to Gu and personally served three bowls for Cheng LiHua and Wang Yuqing.
Professor Cheng couldn’t stop grinning from ear to ear, he found Su Huai increasingly likable.
"Sit, sit, hurry and sit. Young Su, it’s your birthday today; grandma didn’t cook much, just prepared a bowl of special birthday noodle ingredients for you. After we’ve eaten a bit, we’ll cook it, you try the taste..."
Su Huai was genuinely moved, his words sweeter than honey.
"Thank you, grandma! For giving me the warmth of home thousands of miles away... Oh no, that’s not right, at home I don’t even get this treatment, only the dog would eat the instant noodles my mom makes. I’ve never really had longevity noodles; today is truly complete..."
Cheng LiHua was so entertained that the wrinkles on her face spread apart with her smile.
"You kid, such an exaggerator. What’s so complete about a bowl of longevity noodles? Your mother cares too, maybe her cooking skills are a bit damp?’
Seizing the chance to please the old lady, Gou Huai promptly sold his mother down the river.
"It’s not just damp, it’s the icy waves of the Arctic Circle!
Let me tell you, I was skinny as a bean sprout back in junior high, mainly because of poor nutrition. Unless I was so hungry I was about to faint, I really did not want to touch the stuff she made.
Our family only had four pages of recipes—
Starting from the beginning of winter, potatoes and pickled cabbage with glass noodles, eaten until the next April.
