Chapter 88.3: 親吻

[Kiss]

---

Chen Xing listened to Gu Lang’s words. He quickly and easily ate the soup dumpling into his mouth. He looked up at Gu Lang, who was wiping the table with a rag with a calm expression. He was somewhat unhappy. But he felt that if he continued to ask Gu Lang how much money he had left, he would feel like a little wife who wanted to control her husband’s salary. They only established a formal relationship yesterday, and wouldn’t it be a bit too eager of me to show my desire to be a ‘housekeeper’?

 

Gu Lang had been watching Chen Xing out of the corner of his eye. Naturally, he also noticed his mood. He looked at Chen Xing, who seemed to be in a somewhat depressed mood, and he silently sighed in his heart, then he pushed the hot pickled mustard tuber in front of him. When Chen Xing raised his head towards himself, he said in a gentle voice: “In the past, there were only Qiu Jiu and I in this family, so the spending was not much. I don’t have an account. If you are not in a hurry, I will write down the expenses of the house in the next few days, and then give you a look.”

 

Chen Xing obviously can feel that Gu Lang is coaxing him, this recognition makes him a little happy, but also a little shy. He nodded his head and whispered: “I’m not in a hurry, you can take your time to think about it.”

 

Gu Lang looked at Chen Xing’s appearance, reached out and touched his head.

 

Chen Xing returned with a shy and slightly coy smile.

 

Qiu Jiu sat by the side and watched the interaction between the two, suddenly feeling the urge to find a companion himself. However, he quickly shook his head and threw the idea out of his mind couldn’t settle down with such a status, so it was better to forget about it.

 

Just as Qiu Jiu was thinking about when Chen Xing and Gu Lang would be bored or fed up with their relationship, his expression suddenly changed from relaxed to alert, and he quickly turned his head to look in the direction of the courtyard gate.

 

Chen Xing was the first to realize that something was wrong with him, as he looked at Qiu Jiu who turned his head and stared at the doorway, he asked somewhat strangely, “Qiu Jiu, what’s wrong with you?”

 

“Little Boss, someone is knocking at the door.”

 

Qiu Jiu’s tone of voice made Chen Xing confused for a moment. Not to mention that apart from the merchants who come here to deliver goods, there will be no one else to come. Now, it’s not the time to deliver goods. From the gate is still some distance away, there’s no way they could have heard the knocking that far away.

 

Chen Xing looked at Qiu Jiu with a tangled expression, wanting to ask him if he had heard it wrong. Gu Lang, who was sitting next to him, spoke up and said to Qiu Jiu, “Go and take a look.”

 

“Yes.”

 

Chen Xing openly watched Qiu Jiu stood up and walked towards the outside, and when he came back to his senses, he turned his head to look at Gu Lang, and opened his mouth with some hesitation: “Did he really hear it right?”

 

Gu Lang heard Chen Xing’s words and showed him a soothing smile and said softly, “Rest assured, since Qiu Jiu said he heard it, then he must have heard it.”

 

Chen Xing is still a little half-believing half-doubting this, but still did not continue to question after all. Later, Qiu Jiu came back to see, not everything will be understood.

 

Less than a small cup of kung fu, Qiu Jiu will stride back, and come back with a letter in hand.

 

Chen Xing looked at the thing Qiu Jiu brought back, finally could not help but praise: “Qiu Jiu, I did not think that you still have this kind of hidden skills ah! I think if you use this skill properly, it will definitely be of great use.”

 

Being praised by Chen Xing, Qiu Jiu’s originally tense face immediately revealed a silly smile, and somewhat embarrassedly touched his head.

 

Gu Lang glanced at Chen Xing, whose eyes were full of praise, and then looked at Qiu Jiu, who was smiling foolishly. The look on his face could not be described as good. He nodded with his fingertips and said coldly, “What’s the matter? What did he bring you?”

 

Hearing the cold voice of his own family’s young master, Qiu Jiu suddenly shivered for a moment, and hurriedly reverted to his original stern expression, handing over the letter in his hand to Gu Lang, “By the way, this is from the Chen family to your family’s Gong Zi.”

 

Gu Lang raised his eyebrows, but there was not much surprise in his eyes, obviously this was something he expected.

 

On the other hand, Chen Xing froze for a moment, and a few doubts arose in his mind, how could the Chen family contact them and even give Gu Lang a letter. With such doubts, Chen Xing went to Gu Lang’s side, wanting to join him to see the contents of the letter.

 

Gu Lang did not shy away from the situation (avoid a taboo word or topic) and even adjusted his angle. In order to let Chen Xing see better the letter in his hand! Immediately under the eyes of the two, slowly opened the letter, after taking out the letter paper inside, reading the contents of the letter at one glance, the expressions of all the people in the audience changed a little.

 

Gu Lang saw the situation was not hiding, and even adjusted the angle, so that Chen Xing could better see the letter in his hand, and then in the eyes of the two people, slowly opened the letter. Inside the letter paper, a glance at ten lines (read very rapidly) after reading the contents of the scene of the people have some changes in expression.

 

Chen Xing was able to understand most of the contents after practicing for some time, and when he finished reading the information expressed in the letter, he immediately looked up at Gu Lang and muttered, “This, how can they do this? Obviously, it should be returned to you, now even used to threaten you. Simply too shameless!”

 

The letter was an invitation sent by the Chen family, and it was inaccurate to say that it was an invitation, because it did not have a formal format, it was just a not-so-sincere letter with a hidden threat in it.

 

The letter first recalled the friendship between the Gu family and the Chen family, and then talked about their marriage, mentioning that Chen Xing has been out for some time, but has not yet returned back, hoping that Gu Lang can bring him visit one’s parents.

 

Later on, as if he was worried that he wouldn’t go. He also mentioned that when the two families were married, the Gu family jade pendant, which was a token of betrothal, had not yet been allowed to be taken away by Chen Xing. If he goes over this time, then they will return it to him.

 

Chen Xing’s words, Gu Lang, who was still lost in his own thoughts, came back to his senses. He folded the letter paper in his hand and put it back into the envelope; then he placed the letter casually and said lightly. He said lightly:
