Chapter 1207: Ajiu Knows What Nightclubs Are
Although Ajiu was younger than her peers, it didn’t mean that she didn’t know anything.
She had seen what a nightclub looked like on TV.
She even knew that Bai Zhun smoked.
The last time she went to the study, she had seen Li Hailou and the others with a cigarette in their mouths.
However, Bai Zhun didn’t want her to know, and he didn’t allow anyone to see her if they smelled like cigarettes.
Ajiu kept thinking about how Bai Zhun was now dating…
Gu Cheng was still talking, and his voice sounded lazy, “But even if your brother is dating, he won’t let you know, right? After all, this kind of thing has to be hidden from the family.”
This made sense.
Li Hailou was always sneaky about having a girlfriend.
“So Little Bean, you have to give your brother some space, understand?” After Gu Cheng finished speaking, the bell rang.
During a three-minute break in between classes, a girl stood outside the classroom, hoping to give Gu Cheng some snacks.
Gu Cheng looked at Ajiu who was still deep in thought in the classroom. He had never been interested in snacks, but he actually took the snacks from the girl outside.
The girl was naturally happy, and she quickly ran off with her friend.
Gu Cheng didn’t take notice of the girl at all. He placed the pile of snacks in front of Ajiu. “Help me get rid of them. Don’t you like to eat these?”
Ajiu did like these snacks. Because of this, Bai Zhun would always put a lot of snacks in her small schoolbag. There were always cookies and cakes. He was afraid that she would be hungry.
Gu Cheng saw that this child would take them out to eat from time to time after class, so he took these snacks especially for her.
After all, it was quite interesting to watch her eat.
Unexpectedly, little Ajiu shook her head and patted her school bag. “Thank you. There are many things that my Big Brother prepared for me. You can eat these snacks yourself.”
It was the first time that Gu Cheng had been rejected by someone. He narrowed his eyes and didn’t get angry. He simply waved his hand and threw all the snacks into the trash can.
“What are you doing?”Ajiu was startled.
Gu Cheng did not care. “These were meant for you. Since you don’t want to eat them, it’s pointless to keep them.”
Ajiu paused and said, “Don’t throw them away next time.”
“I have a few more bags here,” Gu Cheng said with a smile. “I’ll stuff them into your schoolbag.”
Ajiu did not refuse. She only took out two bags of the snacks Bai Zhun had prepared for her and placed them in Gu Cheng’s palm.
Gu Cheng paused for a moment and then smiled. He opened the packaging and began to eat.
However, in the eyes of others, especially the boys, he was still a very terrifying person.
This was because he really liked to fight and he always brought a group of people with him. There was no knowing when or what would provoke him.
Gu Cheng was very domineering, handsome when he did anything and was very good at fighting. He ticked off all the boxes for the ideal guy of girls that age.
His classmates could see that he treated Ajiu differently.
However, it felt like he was just teasing Ajiu.
Although Gu Cheng was only in the third year of middle school, he had already been in two relationships since he came to this school.
Changing two girlfriends in a month was even more impressive than Li Hailou’s record.
However, his was different from Lixiao Bawang’s romantic behavior. Girlfriends were always with him if they were happy. If they were unhappy, they would break up.
His personality was really cold. In addition, his family owned a large financial group, so dating was just a game to him.
The good thing was that he would tell the girls who confessed to him in advance that he was not a person who valued relationships. If she was ok with that, then they’d date. If she wasn’t, then he’d put a stop to it there and then.
Even so, there were still many girls who threw themselves into the fire recklessly.
It was rare to see him treat Ajiu like this.
But it was obvious that Ajiu had something on her mind today.
The way she chewed on the rice crackers when she did her math homework showed how distracted she was. She kept thinking of what Gu Cheng had told her.
If Bai Zhun was in a relationship, would he really hide it from her?
Ajiu paused for a moment. She held the side of her face with one hand and looked at the white snow outside the window. It was true that Bai Zhun had been very strange lately.
It was too strange. He would always go to the study room at night, as if there was something he didn’t want her to know about.
When Ajiu thought of this, she swallowed the rest of her rice crackers and reached out to touch her small belly. She felt that something was strange.
She looked up at the time on the clock on the wall. It was her brother’s birthday in three days. She planned to skip class this afternoon and run out to buy a gift for him, because every year, her brother would buy her a lot of things.
He bought her plenty of clothes, plus those beautiful dolls and all kinds of Buddhist scriptures. The latter were more expensive and cost a lot of incense money.
Ajiu always felt that if she continued to be raised by her brother like this, even if she became headed a temple in the future, half of the incense money she could give to her brother might not be comparable to the jade Buddha statues that her brother gave her.
Especially the bracelet on her wrist.
Ajiu looked down and shook her left hand.
“Where did you buy this bracelet?” Gu Cheng was originally just lying on the table, but when he carefully looked at her bracelet of jade Buddhas, he was shocked even though he was the scion to a major financial group. “This is really good stuff. My father has one, and his is made from pure jade, but his only has one Buddha head. You have eighteen. How expensive must it have been?”
Ajiu looked down and ate another rice cracker. “Big Brother bought it for me.”
“Bai Zhun?” Gu Cheng shook his head decisively. “Impossible. Even if he’s the only grandson of the Bai family, he couldn’t possibly have so much pocket money. Besides, how could he bear to spend money like that? This is pure jade.”
However, what Gu Cheng didn’t know was that Bai Zhun never felt reluctant to spend money on Ajiu.
Ajiu had the fate of Buddha. When she entered the greater world, she would be afraid of worldly chaos.
When Bai Zhun saw that white jade Buddha statue, he made up his mind to buy it for Ajiu. He wanted Ajiu to be safe for the rest of her life.
Gu Cheng was right. No matter how powerful the Bai family was, Bai Zhun was still an underaged child. Master Bai would not give him so much money just to buy a bracelet.
But at the same time, there was something else that Gu Cheng also did not know.
Why had Bai Zhun gone to the nightclub that day? He was there to discuss a project. He and Xiao Lin were involved in this project together, and the people he interacted with were all working adults, so he had to entertain them at a drinking place.
But just as Xiao Lin said, Bai Zhun had just sat there with a smile on his face, but he did not touch any of the alcohol.
If it were not for the sake of buying this Buddhist bracelet for Ajiu, Bai Zhun probably would not even appear in such a place.
However, Gu Cheng still underestimated the power of the Bai family.
Bai Zhun was the third generation of a truly rich and powerful family. Every valuable item within the house was an authentic piece. Moreover, Bai Zhun was Old Master Bai’s only grandson.
Bai Zhun wouldn’t run into any problems, regardless of whether he wanted to go into business, politics, or the military.
However, Bai Zhun had also said that buying things for his Ajiu would only be meaningful if he used the money he had earned to buy them.
