Delayed confession

Wen Jing immediately turned sideways and asked,

"Yeah, how come you know each other?"

"I saw him before when I went to No. 1 Middle School to have dinner with my uncle."

Gu Mochuan sat opposite them, nodded, and smiled gently, completely different from his previous attitude.

When Yue Qing heard this, she thought her son had gotten into trouble and she didn't know about it. She looked at Gu Mochuan nervously and asked,

"What trouble has he gotten into?"

"No, he's good at basketball. We played basketball together."

Hearing Gu Mochuan praising his son, Yue Qing heaved a sigh of relief, and at the same time, a sense of pride rose in his heart. He leaned back slightly, and the expression on his face immediately changed to pretending to be humble.

"Well, that kid is pretty good at sports."

"By the way, is Mo Chuan in the same grade as Sister Dayong? I think they are about the same age."

Yue Qing drank some water while looking at the young man opposite him. He felt quite satisfied and asked in a surprised tone.

"Do you know Xu Weixi?"

Gu Mochuan no longer had a cold temperament at this time. His face was gentle, and his camel-colored collar made him look even more gentle, like a good boy.

"We are classmates."

Wen Jing's eyes lit up immediately. She had seen Xu Weixi when she attended the parent-teacher meeting for Gu Mochuan. She was a very beautiful girl.

She immediately continued, holding Yueqing's hand, and said excitedly,

"What a coincidence? Why not let him give Xuanxuan some extra lessons? He's a good student."

Yue Qing originally wanted to let the two of them meet each other, but suddenly felt that this method might not be as effective as letting the two of them get in touch first.

She looked away, pretending to be polite and evasive.

"Ah, how can this be so embarrassing? I have work to do too."

Wen Jing was afraid that Gu Mochuan would refuse, so she quickly responded, "What is he busy with? It's just a coffee shop, he doesn't have to take care of it."

Shen Ruoxuan patted his arm and looked at Gu Mochuan who was in a daze with confusion.

"Hey, Teacher Gu, what are you thinking about?"

Gu Mochuan came back to his senses, put the exercise book in front of him, and circled the number of the fifth question with a fountain pen.

"Nothing, you got this question wrong. Read the other question again and check the density."

Shen Ruoxuan nodded perfunctorily, his mind completely not on studying.

-

Xu Weixi looked at the computer in front of him, his hands on the keyboard, but he didn't type a single word, his mind was in a mess.

She sighed, picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Joey.

Xu Weixi: [Qiao Qiao, do you want to go shopping? ]

Joey: [The sun rose from the west today? Why did you want to go shopping? ]

Xu Weixi: [I got off work early today, nothing to do. ]

Joey: [But I have to work overtime today {poor thing}, so I can’t go out. ]

Xu Weixi: [Okay then, maybe next time.]

Joey: [Picture {Love you}]

Joey: [I'll make it up to you after I've rested. {Good boy}]

Xu Weixi: [Picture {can't help laughing}]

After chatting with Joey, Xu Weixi felt much more relaxed. He reopened the document and started writing the outline of his new book.

Before he knew it, it was dark. Xu Weixi stretched, rubbed his eyes, and looked at the time on the wall. It was six o'clock.

She heard her stomach growling, so she got up, opened the door, and went straight to the kitchen to prepare a hot cup of milk.

When she passed by the living room, she found that the coffee table had been cleaned up. She thought Gu Mochuan had gone back. She rubbed her neck and walked towards the kitchen while sucking on her slippers. The loose sports home clothes made her look like a college student who came back from vacation and was addicted to the internet and didn't sleep.

When I walked to the door, I saw a tall figure raising his hand to pick up cooking tools.

"Why are you still here?" I felt it was a bit impolite to say so, so I changed my mouth to,

"What are you doing?"

"Aunt, Aunt Chen has asked for leave today because of something at home, so we are going to have dinner."

Xu Weixi turned sideways and found Shen Ruoxuan squatting in the corner peeling potatoes. She walked into the kitchen puzzled.

"can you cook?"

"I can't, but Teacher Gu can." Shen Ruoxuan looked back at Xu Weixi and chased people away while peeling potatoes.

"You go out and wait for dinner. I'll help Teacher Gu."

The rest of the house is quite spacious, except for the L-shaped kitchen. Yue Qing was afraid that they wouldn't know how to cook, so she bought a lot of auxiliary items and a large refrigerator, which made the originally small space even smaller. Usually, Aunt Chen cooked alone, and she didn't feel it. But now there are two men over 1.8 meters tall and a woman over 1.7 meters tall, and it immediately feels crowded.

Xu Weixi walked to the sink and washed his hands, then said,

"You all go out, I'll do it."

Shen Ruoxuan didn't dare to look up, and muttered softly, "Then we can only order takeout."

Xu Weixi originally wanted to leave, but she felt that her identity was not appropriate, so she had to drive Shen Ruoxuan out.

"Go back to your room and do two more Chinese reading comprehension exercises. I'll help your teacher."

Under Shen Ruoxuan's gossipy eyes, Xu Weixi calmly opened the refrigerator and asked Gu Mochuan,

“What are you going to cook?”

Seeing that Shen Ruoxuan had returned to the house, the man lowered his head slightly and whispered in Xu Weixi's ear,

"What do you like to eat?"

Xu Weixi tilted his head and glanced at him, as if asking him where he learned such a greasy trick. His brows were slightly furrowed.

"I'm not picky about food."

Gu Mochuan felt particularly innocent when he saw the other party's disgusted look. This was the most effective move he had found on the Internet. Why didn't it work on her?

He recalled the following moves and asked gently,

"Xuanxuan said you like fish-flavored shredded pork and boiled fish, but there's no fish here, only eggs. How about making an omelet? Is that okay?"

"casual."

As Xu Weixi spoke, he took out carrots, green peppers, black fungus, meat, and eggs, as if the people next to him didn't exist, and put the fungus and green peppers in the sink and began to wash them.

Gu Mochuan asked as he peeled the carrots according to the plan.

"Are you surprised to see that I can cook?"

To be honest, Xu Weixi was still surprised that Gu Mochuan, a young master who had everything handed to him, could cook.

But seeing that he was about to praise me, I couldn't help but want to pour cold water on him, and asked back with a cold face,

"Don't you cook for yourself when you are abroad?"

"Yes." Gu Mochuan was stunned. How could this be completely different from what was said on the Internet?

"What's so surprising about that? Isn't it just a normal thing?"

Xu Weixi fished out the things, put them on the chopping board, and asked with a smile,

"I'm done, is there anything else you need me to do?"

Gu Mochuan was like an eggplant hit by frost. He lowered his head and said in a muffled voice,

"That's all. I'll take care of the rest."

"Thank you for your help." Xu Wei was not polite. He picked up the rag at hand to wipe the water droplets on his hands, took the dishes and turned out of the kitchen.

As soon as Xu Weixi sat down, Shen Ruoxuan walked up to her quietly as if he had radar and whispered,

"Aunt, Teacher Gu is single!"
