BOSS Transmigrates as a Little Cutie - Chapter 157,7 - Extra 4
“Alright, we can go eat at the dim sum1 place that you like.”
In Qing Yun’s eyes, Yan Linhao had always been obedient and lovable. His unusual behaviour this morning was probably due to shock from Gu Qing who had suddenly returned. Hence, Qing Yun had no reason to doubt him and quickly accepted Yan Linhao’s excuse.
On her side, Gu Qing looked around and suddenly asked: “Cheng-ge, what about my room? I want to go back there and have a look.”
Gu Qing was thinking of staying at home for a few days to assess if Gu Cheng’s attitude towards her had really changed, or if he was just angry with her. If all else failed, she just had to coax and cajole Gu Cheng like what she had done before. Gu Cheng would always have his heart set on her.
No one expected that once they heard her question, before Gu Cheng could answer, the teenager who threw her out of the room this morning spoke up coldly: “It no longer exists. The first floor are the guest rooms, other than my Ge’s and my rooms on the second floor, the rooms are all changed to my shooting range and gym. The third floor is Gege’s study.”
Yan Linhao’s hair stood on end when he heard Gu Qing’s words. What did this woman mean by this? Don’t tell him she really was planning on living here immediately>
Gu Qing was taken aback, then she heard Qing Yun’s indifferent response: “You haven’t been back in 10 years.”
As he spoke, Qing Yun already stood up, gesturing to see the guest off as he took his coat to accompany the man of unknown origin to eat breakfast.
It wasn’t until she walked out of the main gates of the Gu home and watched Gu Cheng’s car drive away, that Gu Qing deeply realized that Gu Cheng really had changed. He changed to be even harder to control than Yan Yishen, and more powerful.
However, as long as that orphanage was still around, Gu Qing would have the leverage over Gu Cheng, and even the entire Gu family.
In the car, Yan Linhao sat in the passenger seat, turned sideways to look at Qing Yun without blinking.
“What’s wrong?” Qing Yun had sensed that Yan Linhao was not in his usual mood this morning, so he couldn’t help asking.
“Ge, she’d left for ten years and never once came back. Could it be that you both…” Yan Linhao pursed his lips as he spoke, and he really couldn’t bring himself to say his guess that Qing Yun was about to marry someone else.
Hearing Yan Linhao’s words, Qing Yun couldn’t help but chuckle. He had already long figured out the boy’s strange rejection of Gu Qing. That year, when the nine-year-old him saw Gu Qing’s photograph, he looked as if the sky had fallen down. Now that he had already turned 19, he actually didn’t change at all.
How insecure was this kid?
“Alright, I will settle the matter involving her. You’re already in your third year of high school, so don’t pay so much attention to these trivial matters.”
From Qing Yun’s point of view, Gu Qing’s matter was nothing at all, and Yan Linhao didn’t need to be troubled by these things.
But Yan Linhao didn’t feel comforted at all after hearing Qing Yun’s words.
This was due to Qing Yun still treating him as a child. Seeing him rejecting Gu Qing, Gu Cheng never thought that it was because he was jealous and only felt that it was because he lacked a sense of security.
Hence, Yan Linhao felt incomparably depressed. He looked at Qing Yun, and even wanted to push him down on the driver’s seat, then very clearly tell him the true reason why he hated Gu Qing!
Yan Linhao’s hands hanging by his sides had already clenched into fists, but although the storm in his eyes brewed for a long time, they still dissipated in the end, turning into a trace of indistinct gloom in his eyes.
He didn’t want to… see even the slightest bit of disgust in Qing Yun’s eyes.
Ever since the first time Gu Qing returned to the Gu home, Yan Linhao had seen Gu Qing several times in succession at the Gu home. For the past ten years, the film empress that seemed to be so busy that her feet didn’t touch the ground, now acted as if she had retired, wishing she could visit Gu Cheng twice in a day.
This made Yan Linhao’s temper very irritable, like a wolf hound whose territory was invaded. A few times, he even wanted to just throw Gu Qing out straight away.
However, school started very soon for him. Yan Linhao would stay in a daze in school all day, his brain full of guessing when Gu Qing would go to the Gu home, and what attitude Gu Cheng would have towards her,
Although Qing Yun was always cold and indifferent towards Gu Qing, Yan Linhao was still unable to relax, because he knew that with Qing Yun’s character, he treated everyone as such. In addition, with the fact that he could wait for Gu Qing for ten years, it meant that Gu Qing’s position in his heart was different from others.
On Tuesday, Qing Yun drove Yan Linhao to school.
This was the first time Qing Yun sent Yan Linhao to school ever since he started high school. Because the Gu home was very near the school, Yan Linhao walked there all the time.
It was different today however, as Yan Linhao didn’t want to leave Qing Yun’s side at all.
Seeing that the car had reached the school gates, Yan Linhao remained unwilling to alight and stayed glued to the front passenger seat: “Ge, I don’t want to go to school today, I want to rest.”
Looking at this brat’s appearance, Qing Yun still did not speak, only turning his head to direct his cool gaze at him from the driver’s seat.
Very soon, Yan Linhao pursed his lips, then let his head droop as he sluggishly took his bag to alight. He didn’t forget to instruct him in a soft voice: “Ge, be careful on the way back.”
“Don’t think too much.” Qing Yun glanced at him, and only then did he roll up the car window and drive away, not knowing if he should laugh or cry.
Although Yan Linhao was always very sticky towards him, he had always been obedient. Even after reaching puberty, he had never done anything remotely rebellious, and couldn’t be considered a brat in Qing Yun’s eyes.
But for the past two days, he actually didn’t want to go to school because of the matter about Gu Qing?
Qing Yun only realised how severe the Gu Qing’s impact on Yan Linhao was now. These few days, Yan Linhao was very irritable and became even more clingy to him, wishing to be by his side all day.
In a short while, Yan Linhao will be taking the university entrance exams. Qing Yun thought about it and decided to settle the matter with Gu Qing as soon as possible.
Originally, he wanted to force Gu Qing to personally raise the matter of breaking up. Now it seems like he can’t let his child feel aggrieved because of this small matter.
In the car, Qing Yun called Gu Qing.
On Gu Qing’s side, this was the first time she got a call initiated by Gu Cheng, and she was naturally pleasantly surprised. Just when Gu Qing thought that her actions these few days had finally caused Gu Cheng to soften, she heard the man on the other end of the call say coldly: “We are cancelling the engagement.”
This was a declarative sentence and gave her absolutely no room for refusal.
“Cheng-ge, what are you saying?” Gu Qing froze on the spot.
After working tirelessly for these past few days and neglecting her own job, even gaving Yan Yishen the cold shoulder, all she received in exchange at the end was a single sentence from Gu Cheng to cancel their engagement?
Every year Gu Qing had imagined cancelling the engagement when she was still overseas, but it was all initiated by her and should be raised by her. Meanwhile, Gu Cheng would pathetically follow behind her and try to make her stay. That was the ending Gu Qing wanted.
And not like the situation now, where it was happening because of a single irrefutable sentence indifferently thrown at her by this man.
Furthermore, once she came back and saw Gu Cheng in person, the scales in Gu Qing’s heart already started to shift. If Gu Cheng was able to be more gentle towards her, she wouldn’t mind……
“Cheng-ge, why would you say this? It has been ten years, and I even came back now. You……”
Qing Yun glanced at the rearview mirror, only after confirming that Yan Linhao already entered the school grounds, then he spoke: “Linhao is preparing for the university entrance exams, and you have already disturbed him.”
