The Anarchic Consort c1-1376
Page 529
The man saw Ajiu walking over and looked down at her. "Miss, may I have a look at your Bai Family's invitation card?"
Invitation Card? Ajiu frowned. "I don't have an invitation card. Where are Uncle Zhang and the others? Why aren't they outside here?"
"I'm sorry, Miss. If you don't show us your invitation card, we won't let you in. Please understand the situation," the man continued.
Ajiu rubbed her head. She was just about to find a new place to climb the wall and get into the building.
Just then, she saw the people sent out by Bai Zhun walk over from four directions at the same time. They even had Bluetooth earphones on their ears. When they saw her, their eyes lit up.
"Miss, you're finally back! Quick, follow us in. Young Master is still waiting for you."
Hearing this, the two people on guard looked at each other.
It was strange. The eldest miss had never told them that there was another miss in the Bai family.
However, the few special forces soldiers looked at the person on sentry duty. "You don't even recognize Miss Ajiu? Hurry up and make way."
This time, the two people did not dare to delay and immediately made way from both sides.
Ajiu walked in with a bun in her mouth. From afar, she saw Bai Zhun's figure and many friends behind him.
Those people seemed to be talking to him.
"Bai Zhun, if you don't go in now, we really won't have enough time."
The little brother didn't say anything. He just coughed heavily.
Ajiu immediately ran over, afraid that he had caught a cold,
When she got closer, she realized that he had been standing under the tree for quite a long time. He seemed to be different from usual and was not as proud and elegant as before. Apart from his slightly haggard lips, his eyes were somewhat dark too.
His thick ink hair seemed to be stained with night dew and was slightly damp.
"Little brother," Ajiu called out to Bai Zhun.
The place was very quiet. Other than the rustling of the wind, there was nothing else.
Just then, Vice commander Zhang came out to urge him again. However, when he saw Ajiu was also there, his expression obviously changed. He was really thankful to the heavens.
"Young Master, since Miss is back, you can follow me in first. You still need to prepare for the speech."
Bai Zhun acknowledged and lowered his eyes. He did not know what he was wearing on her wrist.
Ajiu only felt that thing was cold. It was very comfortable to stick to her skin. It was warm and jade. This was probably the feeling of touch.
When she looked up again, she only saw Bai Zhun's back.
The little brother did not seem to want to talk to her, nor did he want to ask where she had gone..
Even if the little brother did not say anything, Ajiu could feel that Bai Zhun did not want to speak this time.
The banquet in the house had finally reached the most lively moment.
Congratulatory voices could be heard from time to time.
Gu Rou glanced at Ajiu. After everyone had entered the inner mansion, she held her wine glass and leaned over, her tone was gentle. "Ajiu, I was worried that you wouldn't come. I was so anxious. Fortunately, you came at the last moment. Don't blame your brother for being so cold to you just now. In order to wait for you to come, he even pushed back the time to cut the cake by a few hours. If it weren't for Grandpa Bai, this banquet would definitely have ended on bad terms. Bai Zhun was also anxious, that's why he was like this."
"That's what I said." The two girls next to Gu Rou also walked over, they advised earnestly, "Ajiu, you must be more sensible in the future. You don't know how ugly Vice commander Zhang's expression was just now. He even called out for you a few times. You're right. It was so good to come back with us just now, but you insisted on playing with others. Not only did you delay things, you even made everyone wait for you. Look at how you dress yourself. You're really not a little kid. It wouldn't be good if others see you in this state later. After all, you're Bai Zhun's younger sister. "
Chapter 1250 - Ajiu Was Arguably Not Presentable
Upon hearing this, Ajiu lowered her eyes and looked at her own clothes. Although there were no decorations, they were very clean and decent. There was nothing bad about them.
"Don't say this anymore. I heard from Grandpa Bai that Ajiu is usually very sensible and saves money. After all, she knows that her surname is not Bai. It's good to that she knows this."
As soon as Gu Rou finished speaking, the two girls widened their eyes and looked at Ajiu in disbelief. There were some other things in their eyes. "So her surname isn't Bai. No wonder."
Gu Rou smiled gently. "Even if her surname isn't Bai, Bai Zhun treats her no different from his own sister. Am I right, Ajiu?"
Without saying anything, Ajiu's small body stood there, telling herself three times not to hit anyone. After she scooped up a cup of fruit juice, she lowered her head and drank it.
In her actions, she revealed the Buddha's head on her wrist that Bai Zhun had put on.
Gu Rou also saw the object, and the jealousy in her eyes was replaced by surprise.
That was the Purple Jade Buddha's head that even her grandfather wanted. It was said that it was very expensive and had reached a certain level.
She still remembered that when she first met Bai Zhun, he had come into contact with her grandfather because of the Buddha's head and the project.
The reason why he agreed to accompany her shopping seemed to be related to this Buddha's head.
However, she had always thought that he wanted this thing for his own use or to give to grandfather Bai.
Never had Gu Rou thought that he would give such a valuable thing to a child so casually.
As her eyes darkened, Gu Rou pretended to be surprised, although her voice was very low. Afraid that others would hear her, she whispered, "I have this thing too. Ajiu, your brother gave this to you, right? He is such a lazy person. He bought you whatever I like."
Ajiu frowned when she heard this. She also looked down at her wrist, but her eyes were very dark. "This was specially picked for me by little brother. I can feel it."
Gu Rou did not expect that her words could not affect this child.
It should not be like this.
After so many days, shouldn't she already have some self-awareness?
"It is indeed different." Gu Rou was smart because she knew how to retreat. "Mine is not of this color, and the details are also different. They are all Buddha's heads.As with Bai Zhun, I can look at them, but I am not very used to wearing them. Unlike Ajiu, she is still young and can wear these things."
"Gu Rou, don't talk about a Buddha statue anymore. Quickly tell me what you have prepared for Bai Zhun." One of the two girls obviously did not want to talk to Ajiu after knowing Ajiu's identity. Pulling Gu Rou over, she said, "I heard that apart from the watch we bought together, you have an additional surprise for Bai Zhun."
Just then, a faint smile appeared on Gu Rou's gentle and moving face. "About that, I can't tell you yet. You'll know when we're done cutting the cake. Bai Zhun has always wanted this. I don't know what he's thinking when he asked me to personally give it to him."
"He definitely wants you to give it to him as well." The two girls jokingly pushed her. "Don't worry, Bai Zhun definitely won't reject you. You're so beautiful and you have so many betrothal gifts. Whoever marries you will definitely be happy, right?"
Instantly, Gu Rou's face turned red. "Don't talk nonsense. What betrothal gifts? If you guys continue like this, I won't talk to you anymore."
"Oh, you're so shy."
While listening to their conversation, Ajiu glanced at the Purple Jade Buddha head on her hand.
If her little brother really confirmed his relationship with Gu Rou in a while, her Little Ala shouldn't need to be sent away.
Perhaps it was because she was too young that she was treated as a child again and again.
In fact, the litt
le brother didn't have to worry about her at all.
She wouldn't cry because of such a thing, even if it was very uncomfortable.
It was just that what she said to the second brother was true. She always wanted to beat him up.
At that time, she would make things difficult for the little brother.
Now, the little brother had already delayed his time in order to wait for her.
Therefore, she could no longer be "imm.a.t.u.r.e".
However, could it be an illusion?
The smell of meat that used to be very unpleasant was very faint today. It was as if it had been isolated by something. As it entered her nostrils, it was replaced by a faint sandalwood scent.
That smell was very familiar to Ajiu. When she lived in the temple and read in the morning, she would often smell it.
Every time when the master who began to recite the Scriptures, the great hall would light up three incense sticks. While her senior brother knocked the wooden fish on it, she would sit next to him and meditate. That was the smell from the past.
Ajiu wrinkled her small nose. That smell was faintly discernible, so it was not easy to catch it.
With her small physique, Ajiu was ignored by everyone as she stood by the side.
In addition, there were already many guests here. Other than Bai Zhun who protected her, the rest of the people had their eyes on Gu Rou, who was wearing a white sand-woven dress. It was not because of anything else, but because they had also heard about it, it was said that the Bai and Gu families were going to have a social gathering.
Of course, this news was a bit untrue, but they were of the same age after all. It might really be possible.
They were all in the same circle. In addition, Gu Rou was grandfather Gu's granddaughter, so the frequency of people praising her was naturally higher.
"Grandfather Gu is really lucky to have raised such an outstanding granddaughter."
"That's true. Didn't you see the background of the Gu Family?"
"I don't know if she has a boyfriend. I really want to go over and get to know her."
"Alright, you don't have to think about it anymore. She's the school belle of High School No. 2. She's a couple with young master Bai. They're a perfect match. Although they haven't confirmed their relationship yet, do you think you can match Young Master Bai? Just forget it."
Gu Rou listened to the discussions by her ears. Not only did she not stop them, she even smiled.
Then, she walked to Ajiu's side and said, "Ajiu, your brother is going to deliver his speech soon. Did you buy him a gift? There is a gift pool over there. If you have it, it's best to put it there. It's convenient for your brother to open it later."
Ajiu didn't say anything.
Gu Cheng saw her face through the crowd and walked over with big steps. He was holding a glass of wine in his hand. "Hey, why are you so late?"
"You only know how to drink. Ajiu arrived a while ago and didn't bring anything with her. I reminded her to put a gift on her," Gu Rou said with a faint smile.
Raising his eyebrows, Gu Cheng said, "Indeed, you should put a gift on her. Little Bean, where are the lighters you bought for your brother?"
"Lighters?" One of the girls heard this and laughed softly. "Ajiu, it's your brother's birthday, and you're giving him a lighter? This is too much..."
Chapter 1251 - The Elder Brother, Qing Chen, Was Furious!
"Xiaodie!" Gu Rou interrupted the girl. "Ajiu is still a junior high school student. How expensive a gift do you want her to buy? The worth of a friendship cannot be measured by weight of a gift. There's nothing wrong with a lighter."
Xiaodie stuck out her tongue, which was rather playful. As she turned to look at Ajiu, she said, "Ajiu, I don't mean anything else. Don't take it to heart. However, our gift is indeed incomparable to Gu Rou's gift. The gifts she gave your brother are worth a lot of money. They're all limited edition."
"No matter how limited edition they are, they can't compare to my liking." Gu Cheng curled his lips. "Alright, you guys can go somewhere else. It's boring to talk about these things."
Gu Rou laughed instead. "You're so protective of AJIU. Be careful of that Big Brother Bai Zhun. He won't be willing."
"Sister." Gu Cheng raised his eyes to look at her. He said meaningfully, "Don't always do these superfluous things. Your target is Bai Zhun, isn't it?"
Gu Rou paused for a moment and smiled faintly without saying a word.
She knew that her cousin had always been smart and accurate in seeing things.
It was probably from her conversation that he knew Ajiu was not Bai Zhun's biological sister, which explained his abrupt reaction.
But this was not a big deal.
What they wanted had to be protected well, just like what Gu Cheng was doing now.
"Alright," Gu Rou said to her best friends behind her. "Let's go over. I still have something to give to Bai Zhun."
The two girls smiled in unison and walked together hand in hand. However, they did not forget to leave behind a sentence, "Those who are adopted are really shabby and short-sighted. Why did you prepare a lighter on such an occasion?"
"Don't say anymore. Young Master Gu is already unhappy without seeing it. Who cares what she gave him? In any case, she is still the sister of the university president Bai. She won't be despised."
"I still feel that things like lighters are simply unpresentable."
"Therefore, we should wait and see what Gu Rou is going to give the university president Bai so that we can be dazzled."
Gu Rou looked back and smiled. "You guys, I really have to hand it to you. If I don't tell you, do you plan to keep talking like this?"
"You can leak a little bit to us," the girl said in a low voice. "Lower Your Voice and don't let others know."
Gu Rou seemed to have no way of dealing with them. Glancing at Ajiu, she whispered something into the two girls' ears.
In an instant, the two girls' eyes lit up. "H-How much is this? How much is this?"
"It's not about money." Gu Rou smiled. "It's Bai Zhun who has always wanted it."
The two girls nodded. "It's not just about money. This is real power. Senior Bai will definitely be very happy."
"Of course, on this point, I still know Bai Zhun better." Gu Rou held her wine glass and smiled. Between the conversation, it was always overheard by Ajiu, whether intentionally or not.
Ajiu did not feel that the lighter was inferior to the other gifts. Although she still planned to give her little brother an Alaskan sled dog, these things were not worth telling to anyone other than her little brother.
As for the problem of being able to take out the lighter and not being able to take it out, it was not within her consideration.
There was only one thing that Gu Cheng was right about. No matter how limited the version was, it could not compare to her little brother's liking.
In the past, Ajiu was certain that the little brother would be happy to see the gift that she had given him.
However, at such an occasion, she seemed to have lost her confidence again.
She had always known that she was very stupid.
Just like what many people said, she did not know what to worry about.
Ever since she left the mountain, the little brother had helped her with many things.
However, was the world she knew really the real world?
Did her little brother think that he would be very tired if she kept being so stupid.
After all, the birthday party had indeed changed the time for her.
"Xiao Bai, do you think that I have really become a burden for my little brother?"Ajiu got up the little white cat that was following behind her. She unconsciously rubbed her cheek against its soft little head and said in a low voice.
She really missed being with her second brother now.
Her second brother never seemed to think that she was stupid.
In fact, her little brother was like this when he was young.
Ajiu
was not sure anymore. Standing in the bustling area, she whispered to herself, "Why am I only twelve years old? I really want to grow up quickly..."
At this moment, outside the military compound, a limited edition sports car sped over. Only the sound of brakes could be heard, and the car steadily stopped at the side.
There were three people sitting in the sports car. Other than the driver, L, the other person was holding a laptop. His subordinates were rapidly typing on the keyboard. The screen was the interface of the Bai Family's banquet.
They could even hear the conversation inside.
It turned out that before Ajiu left, Helian Qingchen had installed a tiny camera on her fluffy rabbit hat. Not only could it record the video, but it could also restore the sound.
Helian Qingchen was sitting in the back of the car. His slender and fair fingers were playing with the phone that Ajiu had left with him. He had practically heard the entire project of his little sister entering the Bai family's banquet from start to finish.
"Are you kidding me? You actually look down on our little princess so much." Monkey was simply going crazy!
Damn it, why couldn't a lighter work?
Who normally doesn't need a lighter to smoke!
Is the boss rich?
Is he forcing them to compare their parents?
No, the little princess doesn't need to compare her parents at all.
Her brother alone was already much better than the Gu guy. Why were those two girls so mean?
Monkey was furious. He patted his notebook. "I really want to destroy her!"
L took the steel pipe in his hand apart and put it back together. He was especially direct. "Are we going in?"
"Boss and the others haven't arrived yet." Monkey scratched his hair. "Furthermore, before they came, Boss said that the Buddha's head will only completely fuse with the little princess after an hour."
When L heard this, he furrowed his beautiful brows. Could it be that he wanted them to just wait and do nothing.
"Uncle Monkey."
