[Be Anxious]

Seeing Chen Xing and the others coming over, the leading craftsmen stood up very smartly and shouted towards Chen Xing, “Big Boss, Little Boss.”

 

Regarding this form of address from them, Chen Xing was a little surprised, but still nodded and answered with a smile, looking at them and asking somewhat strangely, “It’s not yet time for the appointment time, why you guys have come over?”

 

The craftsman scratched his head with some embarrassment, there were a few moments of embarrassment in his smile, “We wanted to come over earlier, to see how much work there was so that we could go back and arrange for what should be prepared.”

 

Hearing their explanation, Chen Xing nodded in understanding, and soon he opened the shop in front of him with the key he had in hand. 

 

After they all went in, Chen Xing let Gu Lang rest. He himself took the drawings, communicated with the carpenters, telling them that there were some places inside the shop that needed to be modified and some other places that needed to be repaired.

 

Those experienced carpentry masters, after they communicate with Chen Xing, this small boss, they roughly know what kind of decoration he wants, took out their own portable tools, began to measure up the size of the shop, and then began to work.

 

Chen Xing, a layman, seeing them started to get busy, also not on their side disturbing them, automatically retreated to Gu Lang’s side. 

 

However, Chen Xing had nothing to do while he was sitting there, and he was still thinking about Qiu Jiu, who was going to do business alone. He had been busy opening the shop for the past few days, and had left the business to Qiu Jiu, so he didn’t know if the business there had been affected.

 

Gu Lang glanced at the busy carpenters, then looked at the somewhat tangled Chen Xing next to him, slightly lowered his eyes, looked sideways at him, and softly said, ”Didn’t you say that you still have to go to the stall to take a look? Now that I’m here watching, you can go and take a look if you want, it’s not far anyway.”

 

Hearing Gu Lang propose this, Chen Xing was somewhat moved, only that he was still a little uneasy about Gu Lang being here alone. Although he couldn’t say why, every time he saw Gu Lang’s pale face, he had a feeling that he couldn’t bear to let him do anything.

 

When Gu Lang saw Chen Xing hesitate, although he didn’t know what was in his mind, he was able to guess a few points from his eyes, he gently thickened the corner of his lips, and said in a warm voice: “Although my body is not very robust, I’m not at a point where I need someone to watch over me at all times. Moreover, just sitting here and looking around, it won’t have any effect. Besides, I am still a man, not as delicate as you think.”

 

Chen Xing instantly poked at Gu Lang’s heart, somewhat embarrassedly touching his cheeks, looking at Gu Lang’s face full of smiles, he finally made up his mind and gently nodded, somewhat uneasy as he said, “Then I’ll go over and take a look. I’ll be back soon.”

 

“Hn.” Gu Lang nodded, looking at him with an extraordinarily gentle expression.

 

Chen Xing, who had loosened up a bit in his heart, quickly got up and left.

 

When Chen Xing’s back disappeared in front of Gu Lang, he still had the previous same gentle and light smile on his face, only the temperature in his eyes had dropped a few points.

 

An artisan who was close by watched their interaction and joked with a smile, ”Lang Jun, you seem to have a good relationship with your Fu Lang, it reminds me of when my wife and I were young, it’s so nice to be young! But since we have a child, our minds are on the child, we really don’t have this kind of bonding anymore, I really miss that time ah!”

 

Hearing the carpenter’s jibe, Gu Lang gently lowered his eyelashes and answered indifferently, but in his heart he silently recalled, ‘A child?’
