He had once thought about what would happen if Ajiu fell in love with someone else in the end.
He understood Bai Zhun better than anyone else.
Bai Zhun wouldn't be able to take it.
For Bai Zhun, Ajiu was not only the person he liked, but also the person who had accompanied him since he was a child.
The more reluctant he was to part with such feelings, the more afraid he would be of losing them.
However, if he really was about to lose them...
He really did not dare to imagine what Bai Zhun would do.
The snowflakes on the field fell one after another.
Bai Zhun did not return home after leaving school. Instead, he went to the dojo where Ajiu used to practice martial arts.
He stood there for an entire afternoon. When he returned to the Bai family, his black hair was covered in snow, and even his eyelashes were covered in snow.
Old Master Gu and Old Master Bai were playing chess in the living room. When they saw him like this, they were all stunned.
"Bai Zhun, what's wrong with you?"
"Nothing."
Bai Zhun was holding his school bag with one hand. His head was slightly drooping, and his black hair fell over his face, so no one could see his expression clearly.
Old Master Bai felt that something was not right, but his grandson was older now, so he wasn't sure what sort of problem it could be.
When Gu Rou heard about this, she begged Auntie Wang to teach her how to make ginger soup so that she could serve it to Bai Zhun.
When Ajiu came back, she saw Gu Rou standing at the door of the room.
She paused and walked to the guest room with the white cat on her back.
Ajiu thought that since it was her brother's birthday the next day, even if she did not show up, the gift had to be delivered.
There was a message from Gu Cheng on her phone. He made Ajiu promise to buy him breakfast, and he would give her the Alaskan Malamute.
It was just buying breakfast, so Ajiu quickly agreed to this deal.
The next day, at dawn, Ajiu packed her things and left the room.
Chapter 1240 - Gu Cheng Provoking Qing Chen
"Ajiu!" Gu Rou took advantage of the fact that she hasn't left the courtyard yet and ran over with a troubled expression on her face. "I know you have some misunderstandings about me, but today is your brother's birthday. There will be many people arriving in the afternoon one after another. You grew up in the mountains when you were young. Perhaps you don't understand, but aristocratic families like us always have a lot of scruples. Your brother and I don't want you to be unhappy. If you don't have a good expression, it will make it awkward for a lot of people. So I really hope that you can be happy. I heard from Gu Cheng that you want to give Bai Zhun a gift. That Alaska breed is too fierce, and it is not suitable for such a grand banquet. If it bites someone, the Bai family will have a hard time. If you only want to give your brother a dog, you can wait until the banquet is over before giving it to him. During this time, you can play with us. Whatever you want to play, we will play with you. What do you think?"
Ajiu gave her indifferent two words, "No need."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Gu Rou hurriedly said, "Ajiu, you didn't eat breakfast yesterday. Your brother is very worried about you. Today, Auntie Wang made noodles especially for you. It's vegetarian. You can leave after you finish eating. Don't let your brother worry about you all the time."
Ajiu turned around. She had a small and fierce face, and her eyes were very beautiful.
She didn't say anything. She just looked at Gu Rou.
The corners of Gu Rou's mouth were still smiling. "You can't always do whatever you want just because you're a younger sister. You should know how important today's coming of age ceremony is to Bai Zhun." Ajiu, although you're still young, there's still something I want to tell you. Not everyone in the Bai family is worthy of you. Compared to a dog, Bai Zhun wants endless power, and only the Gu family can give him that."
Hearing this, Ajiu finally spoke. Her tone was very flat. "I'm also very rich."
"Hahaha." Gu Rou laughed when she heard this, her words carried another layer of meaning. "Ajiu, you're really naive and cute. In the future, you'll know what power I'm talking about. At your age and status, you really won't understand."
Ajiu didn't care what Gu Rou thought.
Little brother liked dogs.
She knew it better than anyone else.
He was going to school to lead the Alaskan Dog.
Gu Cheng kept his promise. He didn't wear a school uniform. His upper body was covered in a black leather jacket. He held the Alaskan sled dog with one hand. He felt that it was difficult to control it.
However, the big dog became much more obedient after seeing Ajiu. He really didn't know who was the master.
"Little bean, where's my breakfast?"
Ajiu looked at Gu Cheng leading a big dog that he couldn't control and also found it difficult for him. She immediately took out the big steamed buns that she bought from her school bag.
"For you."
Gu Cheng looked at the ten steamed buns in front of him and was instantly dumbfounded. "You want me to eat this?"
"I always eat steamed buns for breakfast." Ajiu added, "The steamed buns in this shop are very delicious. There are vegetables in them."
Gu Cheng didn't believe it. "You bought steamed buns for Helian Qingchen too?"
"Yes." Ajiu nodded.
Gu Cheng laughed. "You bought ten?"
"Yes." Ajiu looked at the big dog and waved at it.
Gu Cheng grabbed the dog leash in his hand. "Helian Qingchen has finished eating? What is his stomach made of? Ten steamed buns, who was going to be stuffed to death?"
Ajiu put on a small face. "I've given him breakfast, are you going to give me the big dog or not?"
"Give it, give it. Ten steamed buns in exchange for an Alaskan dog. I can't believe I would do such a loss-making business." Gu Cheng really thinks he's crazy."There must be something wrong with my brain. But for your own good, you'd better not give this dog to your brother at his birthday party. If It bites someone, it'll be very troublesome. You can either give it to him in advance or after it's over. It's up to you. I have to go to your house first. I think everyone will be very busy today. Take care of yourself."
Ajiu hummed but didn't tell him that she didn't plan to go to the birthday party at all. Today, she would follow her second brother.
Gu Cheng saw that she only hummed and was extremely helpless.
If his grandfather saw this, he would definitely laugh at him.
Ever since he was born, he had never treated anyone so well.
"Little bean, didn't you say anything?" Gu Cheng raised his eyebrows. He looked very handsome.
Ajiu brought the Alaska over and stroked the big dog's head. She said to Gu Cheng, "I'll give you the money tomorrow."
"Do I still need money to spend?" After Gu Cheng finished speaking, in case he was angered by her, he could only change the topic. "Keep an eye on the dog. I'm leaving."
Gu Cheng was just about to leave when he saw a bicycle. There was a person sitting on the bicycle. He supported the bicycle with one leg and had a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.
This is... Helian Qingchen?
Gu Cheng's footsteps stopped hesitantly.
Ajiu was happy. She ran over in a flash, and the Alaska was following behind her.
When Alaska saw Helian Qingchen, it immediately bared its fangs. That posture clearly showed that it wanted to pounce on Helian Qingchen.
However, in the next moment.
A strange thing happened.
The originally ferocious large dog suddenly stopped in front of the bicycle. Its back was still trembling.
As If it was afraid?
Would it be afraid?
Looking at Helian Qingchen who was supporting the bicycle, the faint smile on the corner of his mouth did not even change. His eyes only lande
d on the Alaska dog indifferently. "This dog is not bad."
"Awoo.." The Alaska withdrew its paw in fear.
Ajiu grabbed the big paw and said in a cute and serious manner, "It's greeting you."
Gu Cheng: ... There's such a way to greet? How he wished he could tear the other party into pieces?
He thought that only Ajiu in the world would think that way.
Unexpectedly, the person who was attacked actually smiled. He also stretched out his hand and grabbed Alaska's paw. "Hi, how are you?"
Gu Cheng swore that he really saw his beloved dog trembling, even though he had already sent that beloved dog away!
But wasn't this too unusual?
"This is?" Helian Qingchen seemed to have just noticed him.
Ajiu introduced, "Gu Cheng, my deskmate."
"Also surnamed Gu?" Helian Qingchen continued to smile. "It's really a pretty good surname."
Gu Cheng looked into his eyes and found that there was no warmth.
He remembered that day in the cafeteria, it was this person who had a conflict with his cousin and the others.
Gu Cheng was not present at the time, but he heard the story later.
This person used this method to approach Ajiu, it really made people unhappy.
He walked towards Helian Qingchen with one hand in his pocket. When he passed by, his voice was low. "So don't provoke someone surnamed Gu, you can't afford it."
Chapter 1241 - Little Ajiu is an Orphan?
Hearing this, Helian Qingchen raised his eyebrows, and the smile on his lips became even more pronounced.
Gu Cheng did not see Helian Qingchen's expression.
After saying this, he stepped onto the Land Rover that was parked at the side, and even his back looked very cool.
"Go."
Gu Cheng gave the order to the driver, but from the corner of his eyes, he looked at Ajiu who was standing not far away.
He originally wanted to stand up for his cousin.
But seeing the little bean, he knew that there was no way he could make a move on her.
No wonder Bai Zhun didn't pick a fight with Helian Qingchen.
Because the little bean's behavior was too obvious. It was as if she was protecting that person, so no one can harm him.
Gu Cheng clenched his hands, feeling more and more irritated.
This little bean, how could she have such poor taste!
The old driver seemed to have noticed his young master's disp.l.e.a.s.u.r.e and didn't say a word throughout the journey.
The Bai family's decorations were almost done and the hall was big enough. There was a row of dining tables, but the flowers on them hadn't arrived yet.
There was even a grill set up in the courtyard. This was probably because they had hired a halal chef to roast the whole lamb in the courtyard.
When Gu Cheng entered, he saw Gu Rou instructing the servants to make some minor adjustments. He couldn't help but laugh. "Sis, you haven't married yet and you're already so enthusiastic."
"What are you talking about?" Gu Rou covered his mouth with her hand and looked around nervously.
Gu Cheng looked at her and frowned. "What kind of reaction is that? What are you feeling guilty about?"
"You're the one feeling guilty." Gu Rou saw that there was no one around, so she heaved a sigh of relief. She reached out and took his car keys. "I'm going to pick someone up from school right now and I don't want to talk to you anymore. Go and change your clothes too. You can't go to the birthday party like this in the afternoon."
Gu Cheng smiled. "Anyway, I'm not the main character. By the way, where's the campus beau Bai Zhun? Why isn't he here? Honestly, sis, you guys should be good to a certain extent by now, right?"
When Gu Rou heard this, her fingers clenched tightly.
No matter how hard she knocked on the door last night, Bai Zhun did not let her in. He was so cold that he told her to get lost. Even when the doctor came and wanted her to bring him ginger water.
He even asked Auntie Wang to pour out all the ginger water that she had boiled. It was clear that he was not giving her any face.
When he was sick, he did not forget to ask Ajiu if she had come back.
Today, when he heard that there was a purple Jade Buddha's head, he brought Vice Commander Zhang out of the door. He did not even look at her, who was helping to set up the place.
She was helping the Bai family so much. He really could not feel her at all, okay?
Gu Rou recalled that when the two of them first met, it was Bai Zhun who was discussing business with her grandfather.
Her grandfather had also said that their schools were close to each other, so he wanted them to move around more.
But Bai Zhun had refused at that time.
He said, "I usually have to take care of my sister, so I don't have time. I'm afraid I'll have to disappoint Grandfather Gu."
Grandfather smiled and didn't say anything, but he encouraged her from the side to take more initiative.
At that time, she was still angry, thinking that this Bai Zhun was really arrogant.
But for some reason, the more she looked at him, the better she felt.
This was probably a realization that only came after she fell in love with someone.
Even if that person didn't like her, she had to work hard to get him!
"Sister? Sister, I'm asking you a question." Gu Cheng dragged out his tone.
Gu Rou didn't answer directly, "For so many things, when did you become so nosy? Alright, I won't talk to you anymore. I have to go to the school to pick them up quickly, and then we'll go get the gifts together."
Yes, they had to follow her steps.
Bai Zhun could reject her once, twice... he couldn't reject her a third time.
Moreover, at the birthday party, there was one thing that he had always wanted, and he definitely wouldn't reject it.
Gu Rou smiled at the thought of this. She sweetly called Old Master Gu and confirmed once again, "Grandpa, do you really want me to hand that thing over to Bai Zhun?"
"Who else can I hand it to besides you? Don't worry, that child Bai Zhun will like this gift. Even if you don't give it to him, I have to give it to him." Grandfather Gu held the pen and laughed softly, "I've already asked the secretary to prepare the thing and signed it. When Bai Zhun finishes cutting the cake, you can hand it over to him. People will always want to see a beautiful couple."
"Grandpa!" Gu Rou opened the car door and called out reluctantly.
Old Master Gu chuckled. "Alright, alright, alright. I won't say it anymore. I won't say it anymore. Why are you still so shy?"
She sat in the car and looked down at her phone.
At the birthday party, when she gave this gift away, Ajiu should understand the difference between her and herself.
In the end, she was just a child from the mountains. If she had been the little princess of the Bai family, she would not have hated her so much.
But she had to be in the way.
Gu Rou tightened her left hand and laughed again.
The Bai family was not a match for an orphan girl..
The scenery outside the car window retreated quickly.
On the mountain road leading to the suburbs, Bai Zhun sat at the back of the car. The eye of the needle from yesterday was still on the back of his hand. His throat hurt so much that even his nasal voice was heavy. "Take a shortcut."
"Young master." Vice Commander Zhang sat in the passenger seat and said worriedly, "Your health is not good, and there will be a banquet in the afternoon. Why don't I order the things first, and we will come back to pick them up another day."
Bai Zhun coughed heavily twice, and his side profile remained handsome and indifferent. "We will pick them up today. There's news from Old Xu. There are other people who want this purple Jade Buddha's head."
Vice Commander Zhang opened his mouth. Finally, he could not help but ask, "Young master has bought quite a number of Jade Buddhas for miss. Actually, it doesn't mat
ter if there are one or two missing, right?"
"She has been in a bad mood recently." Bai Zhun turned his gaze over. "The Purple Jade Buddha's head is different from the others. It contains a relic of an accomplished monk. Legend has it that it fell from Mount Tianmi. It can protect people from the disturbance of the mortal world and protect people from all things. It's very suitable for Ajiu to wear."
Vice Commander Zhang did not continue to persuade him after hearing this.
Because only he knew that the young master did not take a fancy to this Purple Jade Buddha's head these few days. A long time ago, the young master had sought out many people to buy this Purple Jade Buddha's head. In the end, it was Old Master Gu who pulled the strings, only then did he obtain the whereabouts of this Buddha's head.
It was indeed impossible to persuade the young master to give up now.
If it wasn't for the news of the Buddha's head in Old Master Gu's hands that day, the young master probably wouldn't have agreed to go shopping with anyone.
He could tell that the young master wasn't happy at that time.
But even the young master at that time didn't look as lonely as he did now..
Chapter 1242 - His Highness Meets (1)
The Purple Jade Buddha head was placed in an ancient town near the capital.
This ancient town was not very famous until a variety show came to film it. It became very popular, and many people would bring their children here because of its fame.
Therefore, the journey of just over an hour was lengthened because of the congestion on the road.
Bai Zhun and the others were driving hummers. The advantage of such a car was that it would not be able to support the bottom. The disadvantage was that it was too big. It was not like some of the older buggies that could be passed by just by scraping.
Fortunately, the driver was an experienced driver. Under normal circ.u.mstances, he was very experienced. If he was in a hurry, he could take a shortcut.
However, taking a shortcut meant that he had to take a dirt road.
After the driver considered the safety issue, he decided to wait for the opening of the car.
