Chapter 124: Feng Jia Said They’d Talk Tomorrow
“I’ll drive. Which restaurant are we going to?” Lin Yu went out and took the car keys from the parking attendant.
There was a small red flower on the car keys. At first, he thought it was an ornament, but when he pinched it with his hand, the flower immediately dyed his fingers red. There was no doubt that it was a flower petal.
“She probably got it by accident,” he thought.
He threw it away casually.
After she told him the address, Lin Yu drove to the restaurant.
Gu Chu carefully placed the painting in the back seat and covered it with a piece of clothing.
“Did it go well in the capital this time?” Gu Chu asked as she transferred the money for the painting to him.
Lin Yu replied, “Yes, the project has officially started. But in two days, I have to go again.”
Gu Chu was stunned. “What happened?”
He replied, “There are some local residents who are against the project. I need to go deal with them.”
“Do you to go personally?”
“Yes, it seems serious.”
Gu Chu thought about it and agreed. After all, this was their territory. If they really did something behind their backs, then the cost of the project would be greater than the revenue.
She said, “Then I’ll see if I can free up some time to go with you.”
She did not dare to make any promises, in case she stood him up like last time.
Lin Yu asked her, “Have you solved your problem?”
Gu Chu smiled. “I’ve solved it.”
“That’s good.”
Lin Yu did not ask about the information. Firstly, Gu Wan was a girl, and secondly, she was like his sister. It was not polite to ask too much.
When they entered the restaurant and ordered the dishes, Lin Yu specifically reminded her, “Don’t order wine.”
Gu Chu was a little embarrassed. “I know.”
Every time she drank, she would do something embarassing. How would she dare to drink more?
After dinner, Lin Yu asked her if she’s going home?
Gu Chu remembered Feng Jia telling her to go home earlier, but she could not wait for her mother to see the painting. She hesitated.
In the end, she said, “Let’s go back to the Gu family.”
She just wanted to get back together with her parents so badly.
Especially her mother. Ever since Gu Wan came back, she had never contacted her again.
Lin Yu sent Gu Chu to the Gu family mansion, then drove away. He would return the car to her later.
Gu Chu entered the house. When the maid who was still tidying up saw her, she called out in surprise, “Second miss?”
Gu Chu glanced upstairs. “Are my parents asleep?”
The maid nodded. “Yes.”
Gu Chu said, “You don’t have to tell them that I’m back until tomorrow morning. I want to give them a surprise.”
The maid smiled. “Okay.”
Gu Chu returned to her room and placed the painting on the table. When she thought about how her mother would be surprised by the painting tomorrow, she couldn’t help but chuckle.
She sat happily on the bay window and called Feng Jia while the night breeze blew gently.
Feng Jia quickly picked up the call and asked immediately, “Are you back?”
Gu Chu coughed lightly. “I’m back at the Gu mansion.”
He went silent instantly. Only the sound of his breathing could be heard, proving that he was still listening.
Gu Chu guessed that he was probably unhappy. After all, he had told her to go back.
In the end, she went home without telling him..
He couldn’t even come and get her.
Gu Chu thought of what he said about feeling alone in the empty house and felt a little sympathy for him and explained politely, “I bought a painting and wanted to give it to my mother, so I came straight back.”
Feng Jia was still very quiet on the other end.
“Alright, my dear. I’ll go back tomorrow after I deliver the painting. Or you can come here to pick me up tomorrow morning. You haven’t been to my house for a long time. Come and have a meal!”
Gu Chu was good with words. With her soft tone, Feng Jia finally said, “Gu Wan went to the police station today.”
“Ah? She really went!” Gu Chu straightened up immediately. “So, she really ordered Shen Shan to attack me?”
“Yes and no. Shen Shan also said something else.”
What do you mean yes and no? Was It so complicated?
Gu Chu quickly asked, “What did he say?”
“We’ll talk about it tomorrow.” After he said that, he hung up the phone.
“…”
Gu Chu was stunned for three seconds. Looking at the phone, she burst out laughing.
So, he was clearly trying to keep her in suspense and didn’t want her to fall asleep.
Was it to get back at her for not coming home tonight?
Gu Chu burst into laughter. This person was quite vengeful, wasn’t he?
She threw her phone on the bed.
Tsk, who needs love.
