1228 Side Story 7: Tangtang
Shen Li was momentarily stunned.
When she understood what Lu Huaiyu was asking, her eyes widened slightly.
Her period had always been regular, but three days was too short, so she had not paid much attention to it.
A thought that had never occurred to her before appeared in her mind.
Could it be…
“But we’ve always been careful…”
She suddenly stopped.
No.
Last month, Lu Huaiyu had indeed…
“But, it was only that one time… ” she mumbled.
It could not be such a coincidence, right?
“I won’t be riding today.”
Lu Huaiyu walked over and stood in front of her. He lowered his head slightly and looked at her.
His dark and deep eyes were fixed on her, and his eyes gradually filled with a smile.
“Mrs. Lu.”
He said with a smile.
“This time, it’s your turn to give me a little candy.”
…
A red supercar drove into the grounds of the Gu residence.
Gu Siyang jumped out of the car, picked up the bags of various sizes that were in the front passenger seat, and rushed straight in.
“Uncle Qi, have my second uncle and the others returned yet?”
Qi Yang came forward.
“Young Master Siyang, the second master hasn’t arrived yet.”
Gu Siyang heaved a sigh of relief.
That was good, that was good! It was a good thing that he was ahead!
He had been at a training session at the race track, but he had rushed home as soon as he had received the news.
This time, he would definitely be the first!
Thinking of this, he quickened his pace. Then, he suddenly remembered something and shouted to Qi Yang, “By the way, Uncle Qi, I haven’t finished unloading my things. There’s still more in the car! Please help me bring them in!”
Qi Yang glanced at the car and smiled. “Alright, Young Master Siyang.”
With great difficulty, Gu Siyang struggled to find a small gap between the gift boxes that were stacked up high. Finally, he managed to find the door and walked in.
“Little Sister!”
When Shen Li looked up and saw Gu Siyang, who was bearing all kinds of gift boxes, her eyelids twitched.
Gu Siyang walked over and put the pile of gifts down one by one, quickly covering up every surface of the sofa.
There were still a few pieces that he could not put down due to the lack of space, so he had to place them on the carpet.
“Huh!”
He sat down and heaved a sigh of relief. He pointed behind him and said, “Sister, there’s still more behind me!”
Shen Li’s eyes swept across the room and she hesitatingly said, “These are…”
Gu Siyang was in high spirits. Hearing her question, he immediately sat up and excitedly explained, “These are the nutritional supplements I bought for you! It’s a pity that time is too tight, so I’ve only managed to bring these back for now. There are still some more that will be sent over later!”
Shen Li was at a loss for words.
Just then, Qi Yang also walked over with the remaining items.
Shen Li hesitated for a moment and said, “There’s so much. I’m afraid I won’t be able to finish all these by myself.”
“Why can’t you finish it?” Gu Siyang’s eyes widened. “It’s also for my niece!
Shen Li was speechless.
Gu Siyang chuckled. “I asked my mother about this and she said that different periods of pregnancy require different supplements. I bought all of these according to her suggestions!”
Oh, so it had been her first aunt’s idea.
Shen Li silently swallowed back the words, ‘Won’t it be too wasteful?”
“… Then… I’ll have to convey my thanks to First Aunt…”
“Hey, both she and my dad are in Bai City right now. They couldn’t make it back in time, so they asked me to come as a representative first.”
Long-distance guidance was very good.
Fortunately, he had managed to come here first before everyone else!
As he spoke, he poured himself a cup of tea.
He had rushed here as fast as lightning, and his throat was dry.
“Huh? What’s that?”
He sat forward, only then catching a glimpse of something that seemed to be behind the screen.
“Did Sicheng and Siqi buy toys again?”
As he asked that question, he looked around and found it a little strange.
The color of those things… why did they look a little pink?
Suddenly, his heart skipped a beat and he immediately stood up!
A pile of gift boxes for all kinds of dolls came into his sight.
Gu Siyang was shocked.
“F*ck!”
Old Madam Gu smiled and said, “Sicheng and Siqi happen to be staying at home these two days.”
Gu Siyang was speechless.
“Then why aren’t they here?”
He thought he was first!
In a helpless and gentle tone of voice, Old Madam Gu said, “They said that the stores they often go to sell toys that are more suited to boys, so they asked Jingrou to take them to other stores.”
Gu Siyang was flabbergasted.
He had miscalculated!
Before he had come, he had asked around and found out that his second uncle was out at sea today, his third uncle had two meetings today, and his youngest uncle was on a business trip abroad.
He had thought that he would win for sure, but who would have known that those two little brats would gain an advantage?
He took a deep breath.
It was fine, it was fine. Being second was fine too!
Just then, someone else came through the door.
It was Gu Tingyun.
He did not bring anything with him.
Gu Siyang heaved a sigh of relief.
“Ah Li.”
Gu Tingyun walked over and looked around indifferently. How could he not know what was going on right now?
He smiled.
“Congratulations.”
After all, the Gu family’s third master was the Gu family’s third master. His style of doing things had always been mature and steady.
Shen Li was relieved and her eyes curved up.
“Thank you, Third Uncle.”
“I was busy at the company, so I came back late.”
Of course, Shen Li did not mind.
“It’s not closed…”
“These are the three pieces of land that have yet to be bid on. Take a look and see which one you like.”
Gu Tingyun said as he handed his phone over.
Shen Li was speechless.
Meeting her puzzled gaze, Gu Tingyun explained considerately, “The theme park’s blueprint is still in the design phase, and we’ll only get the first draft in about a week. You can choose a place first.”
Shen Li did not know what to say.
Before she could say anything, her phone suddenly rang.
It was Gu Tinglan.
She picked it up.
“Uncle?”
“Ah Li, I just went to the largest horse farm in Leland and picked a few miniature horses. I’ve already arranged for them to be taken for a physical examination. I’ll send you the photos later so that you can choose.”
“…”
She was at a loss for words. Suddenly, she heard Gu Siyang’s voice from the side.
“Hello? Hello? Dad, I’m telling you, something about the situation doesn’t seem right!”
She slowly turned her head and saw Gu Siyang standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window making a phone call, looking very anxious.
“Yeah! I was going to let Ah Li pick a villa, but Third Uncle is building an amusement park for her!”
Shen Li was stunned.
She closed her eyes.
Ding dong.
There was a notification sound from her phone.
“Thank you, Uncle. I’ll go and take a look.”
With that, she ended the call.
However, she soon realized that it was not a message from Gu Tinglan, but from Fang Yunyi.
It was a photo.
It was a photo of a small diamond crown.
Her eyelids twitched.
Ding dong.
Ding dong.
Ding dong.
Following that, there was a long string of messages.
At first, it was jewelry, but then what gradually appeared were things like mini tutu skirts, mini leather shoes, and mini cloaks.
She finally could not help but look at the man sitting beside her.
Lu Huaiyu’s gaze fell on her phone, and his brows raised slightly.
“They look pretty good.”
He had already helped to screen through the choices once.
Shen Li was stunned into silence.
Just then, a familiar set of footsteps could be heard.
Sensing something, she looked up and was instantly shocked.
She stood up.
“Dad, aren’t you in Haicheng for a meeting today?”
He must have come in a hurry because he looked a little anxious, but it still did not hide his elegant and aloof demeanor.
He walked over and stood in front of Shen Li. He looked at her for a long time and finally stroked her hair as a smile appeared on his face.
“Tangtang.”
