Chapter 56: Whose She Is, Is for Her to Decide

Just as Yu Ke reached the entrance, she noticed the car parked there.

Wasn't this the car she drove out today? It was repaired so quickly?

She was about to ask Bai Xu, but Bai Xu just glanced at her and drove away.

"This guy is actually quite reliable."

Yu Ke thought to herself.

She didn't expect Bai Xu to get the car repaired so quickly and even have someone bring it back.

"I was quite full at lunch, why am I hungry again?"

Zihan thought about food as soon as she got home.

"You're back?"

Gu Qing had been sitting in the living room reading, and asked when he saw Liuli and Zihan return.

"We're back."

Liuli answered.

"Did you have a good time today?"

"Quite good." Liuli said, taking out a piece of clothing, "By the way, Dad, I bought you a shirt, see if you like it."

Zihan was puzzled; when did Liuli buy clothes? Why didn't she know?

"Shouldn't you have bought them for yourself? Why buy for me?"

Although Gu Qing said that, he was very happy inside; it was the first time someone had bought him clothes.

Liuli had bought it based on the size of the clothes she bought for Abo; Abo and Gu Qing looked to have similar builds, and she didn't know if Gu Qing would be able to wear it.

Liuli bought a black short-sleeve; Gu Qing gave off a feeling of solemnity just like black, so she chose black.

"Why don't you go try it on?"

"Alright, I'll go try it now. Girl, it's rare that you still think of me."

"This is only right. You're good to me, so naturally, I want to be good to you."

"Girl, thank you."

"What's there to thank? Go try it on!"

"Alright!"

"Liuli, how come I didn't know when you bought clothes for my uncle?"

As soon as Gu Qing left, Zihan leaned over to Liuli and asked.

"You didn't know because you were too engrossed in shopping."

"That's true."

"How come I don't see your cousin? I'll go upstairs and check."

"Go ahead!"

She didn't see Gu Die upstairs either. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she saw Gu Die return.

"Why are you back so late today?"

Liuli ran into his arms.

"Missed me?"

"I've been thinking about you all day."

"Really? Then why didn't I see you call me?"

Gu Die stroked her hair.

"Wasn't I afraid you were busy?"

"No matter how busy I am, I will always answer your calls, understand?"

"Understood."

Liuli smiled.

Zihan was long used to the two of them being like this.

"Uncle, this fits you quite well, you look younger!"

Zihan saw Gu Qing had changed and took a look; it was just the right size.

She wondered how Liuli was so good at buying clothes.

"Are you saying I'm very old?"

Gu Qing asked in return.

"No! You're very young! It's just that once you put this on, you look even younger! Like a young man as old as cousin!"

Zihan hurriedly praised, and Gu Qing's face was full of happiness.

"Dad, what do you think?"

Liuli asked.

"It fits well, it's comfortable to wear, it looks good, I like it."

"As long as you like it!"

Liuli was afraid he wouldn't like it, so hearing Gu Qing's answer, she was naturally happy.

"Cousin, look at Liuli's taste, isn't it good? The clothes she bought fit uncle just right!"

Zihan said to Gu Die.

"You bought it?"

Gu Die asked Liuli.

"Mm..."

Liuli didn't know what to say to Zihan; she hadn't bought anything for Gu Die.

"You seem to have never bought me clothes."

"Seems like I haven't... Can I make it up to you next time?"

"Sure, don't forget."

"I won't!"

Liuli promised.

"Uncle, you like this shirt so much you won't even take it off!"

Zihan teased when she saw Gu Qing had no intention of taking it off.

"Since I've changed, I'll wear it for today!"

"Dad, this shirt hasn't been washed yet!"

"It's fine! I'll wear it even if it hasn't been washed!"

Liuli laughed happily seeing he didn't want to take it off; she didn't expect Gu Qing to like it so much.

"Lin Sao, when are we eating!"

Zihan shouted.

"The food is already prepared."

Lin Sao answered.

"Alright, let's eat!"

Zihan had been wanting to eat for a long time; she had eaten so much at noon, and it had all digested by now.

"Dad, sit."

"Alright."

Whenever Gu Qing was around, Gu Die always felt he was being neglected by Liuli.

"Cousin, eat quickly."

Zihan shouted.

Besides Lin Sao, there were some servants at the dining table, waiting to be called upon at any time. Originally, Ruitian might have been like these servants, but after that incident, Lin Sao didn't dare let him appear in front of Gu Die again.

Gu Die hadn't chased him away, which was already merciful enough. Lin Sao had wanted to scold Ruitian properly for doing such a thing to someone who helped her, but when Ruitian acted aggrieved and said he didn't know anything, her heart softened.

The Gu family was so big, and many people were eyeing it; it wasn't impossible that they were being plotted against.

But for someone to be able to plot against Liuli and Ruitian right in the Gu house, this person was not simple.

"Liuli, can you come out for a bit?"

Liuli heard her phone ring and went to check; she saw Ze Yan had sent her a message.

She didn't know if she should agree. She didn't know what Ze Yan wanted to see her for, and she was afraid Gu Die would overthink it, but she wanted to go. As long as it was Ze Yan, she instinctively couldn't refuse.

"What's the matter?"

"I want to go eat barbecue, can you accompany me?"

"Alright, wait for me."

"Liuli, why did you stop eating?"

Zihan asked when she saw Liuli put down her chopsticks.

"I have something to do, I need to go out for a bit, you guys eat."

"Girl, what's the matter? Finish eating before you go."

Gu Qing said.

"Dad, you eat, don't worry about me."

"What's the matter?"

Gu Die asked.

"Nothing major, I'm just going to see Abo."

Liuli explained unnaturally.

"Then I'll go with you."

Zihan said. Liuli thought about it and decided it wasn't impossible. Besides, she and Ze Yan weren't going on a date; if Zihan went, Gu Die wouldn't overthink it.

"Alright, let's go together."

"I'll take you."

Gu Die got up to go get the car.

"No need! You stay home, we'll be back in a while."

Liuli hurriedly pulled him back.

"Come back early."

Gu Die instructed.

"Alright."

"Cousin, don't worry, I'm here!"

As soon as they went out, they saw a black car parked there.

Zihan felt the person inside the car looked familiar the more she looked.

"Why is Shen Ze..."

Zihan hadn't finished speaking when Liuli covered her mouth. This was the Gu family's main entrance; it wouldn't be good if the bodyguards heard.

But he was actually waiting for her at the entrance, not avoiding anything at all. Anyway, there was nothing between the two of them; they were just friends, open and aboveboard.

As for Shen Zeyan, Liuli didn't believe he was very bad; it was just because of the matter with Siyun that made him hate the Gu family.

"Are you still going or not?"

Liuli asked in return.

"Going! Of course I'm going! What are you two doing going out at night? I have to keep a good eye on you for cousin!"

"Then get in the car quickly! You better keep a good eye on me!"

"Why did you want to eat barbecue today?"

Liuli asked Ze Yan.

"Just felt like I hadn't been in a long time."

"I see."

"Shen Zeyan, don't have any ideas about Liuli, she's my cousin's."

Zihan spoke up, and Liuli poked her.

"Whose she is, is for her to decide."

"I don't care! Anyway, she's my cousin's! Isn't that right, Liuli!"

"Yes, yes, yes, happy now!"

"Did you hear that? Liuli said it herself!"

Ze Yan ignored her.

"And another thing, don't trouble my cousin anymore, he didn't want this, and uncle didn't want this either."

"Then did Siyun want this?"

Ze Yan asked coldly in return. Zihan was speechless for a moment; she knew how important Siyun was to him, but she felt Ze Yan was a bit pitiful.

"She didn't mean that, Ze Yan, let the past be the past, wouldn't that be better? Don't make things difficult for yourself like this, this isn't what Siyun would want to see."

Liuli explained. Whenever she mentioned Siyun's name, she had a strange feeling in her heart; she didn't know if it was because she heard it too much or what, but she actually had a sense of familiarity.

"We're here, get out."

Ze Yan didn't answer Liuli, just stopped the car.

Liuli could see that his mood had been affected instantly.

"Liuli! You're here!"

Abo came forward happily to welcome Liuli, not even caring about the barbecue.

"Abo, I'm here again!"

Liuli smiled.

"Hello Abo!"

Zihan shouted.

"Hey! Zihan is here too!"

Abo responded.

"Young man, you should come often! Otherwise, you won't be able to spend all that money."

Abo said when he saw Ze Yan, his eyes full of fondness for Ze Yan, just like he was with Cheng Li.

"Alright, I'll come often in the future."

Ze Yan answered.

"That's right! What do you want to eat? I'll go make it for you."

"Abo, we're not in a hurry, you go ahead and get busy."

Liuli said.

"Alright, then I'll go get busy, you guys see what you want to eat first."

"Mm!"

Liuli nodded.

The three of them found a seat and sat down.

Zihan found it strange that Ze Yan was quite accustomed to this small place.

He, Shen Zeyan, would also come to this kind of small place to eat?

The only time she had seen him come to this kind of small place to eat was when he accompanied Siyun.

"Ze Yan, see what you'd like to eat?"

Liuli pushed the menu in front of Ze Yan.

"I'm fine with anything."

"Then I'll order!"

Zihan took the menu and said.

Zihan mostly ordered seafood, while Liuli and Ze Yan both didn't eat seafood.

"Sorry, I'm late."

A man with slightly graying hair came to their table and said.

"Uncle, sit."

Ze Yan stood up and said.

"Alright."

After the man sat down, he took off his sunglasses; his eyes were full of vicissitudes.

Zihan wondered, Ze Yan just called him uncle, looking at him like this, although he was dressed very plainly, it was clear he wasn't an ordinary person.

Could it be Chu Feng?!

"Are you Liuli?"

Liuli was also strange; he knew her?

"Yes, I am."

Liuli nodded.

After hearing her answer, the man kept staring at her, examining her carefully.

"You are Mr. Chu, right?"

Zihan asked.

"I am."

"It seems you guys planned this, Liuli, let's go."

Zihan pulled Liuli and left. ===== CHAPTER 57 =====
