Become a one-time character in a comic

Mr. Qian saw his daughter holding a soup spoon in the kitchen, scooping some soup from the pressure cooker into a bowl, blowing on it, tasting it, and then smiling with satisfaction.

In his eyes, his daughter is his pride and everything to him. Since his wife passed away, he has given all his love to his daughter.

Mr. Qian walked over and asked with a smile: "Daughter, is this the soup you made for Dad?"

"No, this is for Gu Mingxing." She poured a bowl of soup into the bowl, then held the bowl to him with both hands: "But Dad can have one bowl."

Mr. Qian took a sip and praised it repeatedly: "Hmm! I haven't had such a delicious soup in a long time. Where did you buy this chicken?"

"I asked someone to send it over from home. There's no such good local chicken here."

Mr. Qian sighed sadly and said, "Little Cotton-padded Jacket has grown up. The first time she cooked, she didn't cook for Dad. The cotton-padded jacket will leak air."

"Oh," Miss Qian hugged him and said coquettishly, "Dad, didn't I give you the first bowl~"

Miss Qian hugged him and rocked him, looking at him with her big eyes. Mr. Qian really couldn't resist her coquettish look. This was the jewel that he had raised in the palm of his hand.

"Okay," Mr. Qian patted her head and said, "I'm going to go out for a while. Be careful not to burn your hands."

Miss Qian smiled brightly: "I know."

The nanny handed her the sterilized insulated lunch box. Miss Qian happily and carefully scooped the soup into the lunch box one spoonful at a time. The nanny looked at her own lady smiling so beautifully and said enviously, "Being able to drink the soup made by Miss must be a blessing from the previous life."

This nanny came with her and watched her grow up. Miss Qian said shyly: "Don't say that, it's just chicken soup."

"This is your first time making soup and you made it so good. I've been a nanny for 30 years and no one can compare to me in making such delicious soup."

When Miss Qian heard this, she was both happy and blessed. She was also looking forward to Gu Mingxing's expression, whether he would be surprised, whether he would look at her with new eyes, thinking that she was not only a young lady, but also a wife who could cook.

When she thought of this, her face turned slightly hot. The nanny saw that she was blushing, and she smiled secretly with relief.

She held the thermos bag of chicken soup in her arms with great anticipation and walked briskly. She was afraid that Gu Mingxing was still asleep, so she secretly leaned her head through the door frame and carefully observed the person in the ward.

She was very happy to see Gu Mingxing sitting on the sofa reading a book, which meant that he could drink the chicken soup she made right away.

Gu Mingxing knew she was coming as early as when she poked her head into the ward. He controlled his emotions and did not rush up to force her to ask about Edor's condition and location, because Yu Xiaoan said that if you are too emotional, you won't be able to do many things well.

"Gu Mingxing," Miss Qian almost jumped in front of him out of joy in order to show her ladylike image: "I made some chicken soup, you try it."

Miss Qian took out the thermos lunch box, opened the lid, put the prepared soup spoon in it, and handed it to Gu Mingxing with both hands.

Gu Mingxing lowered his eyes and looked at the chicken soup handed to him. He hated it and even felt nauseous at the sight of it, but he still stretched out a hand to take the chicken soup and deliberately touched her hand.

She was like a young girl who had just come into contact with the person she liked. She shyly withdrew her hand, too excited to look at his face. Her palms covered the places he touched, as if this could make his touch last longer.

She glanced around and saw another letter without a stamp or seal on the bedside table next to the letter she had given him. Her intuition told her that this was a reply from her.

But the shy girl was not sure whether it belonged to her. She was afraid that she had guessed wrong. She pinched the two corners of the envelope with both hands, covering half of her face, turned to look at Gu Mingxing, and asked: "Is this... for me?"

Gu Mingxing, who was blowing the cooling chicken soup, responded absentmindedly. Miss Qian got a positive answer, and her eyebrows curved like the moon because of smiling.

She opened the envelope impatiently yet gracefully and reservedly, unfolding the reply letter that belonged to her.

She quickly finished reading the contents of the letter, but because she read it too quickly, she read it again. She held the reply in both hands, turned around and sat next to Gu Mingxing, who had already taken a sip of chicken soup, and asked him expectantly, "How does it taste?"

Gu Mingxing's mouth corners slightly raised, but his eyes showed no emotion. He nodded gently: "Well, it tastes good. Did you make it?"

Miss Qian became more confident after receiving the praise. She raised her head and said proudly, "Of course, this is my first time making soup."

Gu Mingxing understood that in order to make her deeply believe that she had done a good job, he had to drink a few more sips, so he drank a few more sips.

Miss Qian was very happy to see him drinking with gusto. She thought that the relationship between her and him had improved. She pointed to the sentence "some problems have occurred recently" on the letter and asked, "What are the 'situations' you wrote here?"

"I was seriously injured last time and my leg was broken, so I couldn't reply to your letter."

She knew that there must be a reason why he didn't reply to her letter.

"Will you still attend the training next time?"

"I won't participate anymore," Gu Mingxing said while drinking chicken soup, "I will return to China when my injury heals. My parents asked me to manage the company over there."

"Great," Miss Qian clapped her hands excitedly, "Then I'll go back with you."

"okay……"

Gu Mingxing buried his head in the chicken soup. After he finished it all, he put the bowl down and asked, "Is Uncle Qian free?"

"It seems not today. Before I came, Dad went out for something. But what do you want to talk to Dad about?"

"I don't know much about the business situation in China. My parents are here all year round. I want to learn from Uncle Qian before I go back so that I can be mentally prepared."

Miss Qian thought that if Gu Mingxing wanted to learn from her father, then they would meet often. She was happy just thinking about it: "Then I will ask my father when he is free when I go back." She took out her cell phone: "Give me your contact information, and I will tell you as soon as I have news."

"Okay," Gu Mingxing dialed his phone number here on her mobile phone.

Miss Qian saw that the phone number he entered was the one here, so she said casually, "Please tell me your phone number in China as well."

Gu Mingxing turned to look at her. Miss Qian felt that she was being abrupt and quickly explained, "Didn't we agree to go hiking together last time? I'll contact you next time."

Gu Mingxing cursed himself in his heart. How could he not give her all his contact information because of his emotions? What if he couldn't find Edor because of this action? Fortunately, Miss Qian knew nothing, otherwise something might have happened.

He entered his other phone number into her cell phone, and Miss Qian was extremely happy to get all of Gu Mingxing's contact information.

"I feel a little sleepy, maybe it's because of the chicken soup."

Miss Qian didn't think anything of it. She just thought that the wounded man needed to get enough rest. After packing up her things, she said goodbye to him and told him like a good friend to be careful not to let the wound split. If there was anything, to call the nurse or caregiver, and to call her if he wanted to eat anything.

Gu Mingxing raised the corner of his mouth slightly and waved to her, thanking her politely and generously.

After Miss Qian left, Gu Mingxing's expression changed completely. The hypocritical smile on the corners of his mouth disappeared completely, and his eyes, which had originally been emotionless, became even colder.

He found it a little difficult to control his emotions, and even more difficult to prevent his emotions from ruining his behavior.

But he was really anxious in his heart. He didn't know where Yu Xiaoan was, what she was doing, and whether she was happy or not.

That day, Gu Mingxing quickly received a reply from Miss Qian.

Miss Qian: Dad said you can come anytime.

Gu Mingxing: Will this disturb my uncle too much?

Ms. Qian: Not at all

Miss Qian: Dad said nothing happened recently.

Miss Qian: If you want to know anything, just ask.

Gu Mingxing: Thank you so much

Ms. Qian: You’re welcome.

Miss Qian: By the way, what do you like to eat?

Miss Qian: My nanny came from China.

Miss Qian: The food is delicious. It tastes good even here.

Gu Mingxing: I am not picky about food, I can eat anything

Miss Qian: How can that be possible?

Miss Qian: Come here, I'll ask her to make you something delicious

Gu Mingxing: Thank you

Miss Qian: We don’t need to be so polite, and we don’t need to say thank you.

Gu Mingxing: OK

A person's feelings can be easily detected from a conversation. Gu Mingxing saw that Miss Qian was interested in him and was very enthusiastic. This was very good, as it could speed up the process of him finding out about Edor's situation.

The next day, Gu Mingxing went to see Mr. Qian with his injuries, but he couldn't use both hands, so he asked the driver to prepare a famous painting for him. It didn't need to be very big, as long as he could carry it in his hands.

So he went to the Qian family's residence here with a landscape painting.

I have to say it is still very secretive, a small villa in the forest, quite elegant, but it is very suitable for hiding.

The driver handed the painting to Gu Mingxing and asked, "Master, do you need me to accompany you?"

"Are you worried that I'm injured?"

"Yes."

"unnecessary."

"Yes."

Miss Qian saw Gu Mingxing coming from the balcony on the second floor, and almost jumped down the stairs and ran to Gu Mingxing. Gu Mingxing saw her while changing his shoes, and waved and greeted her with a smile.

Miss Qian happily put her hands behind her back and said, "You're here?"

Gu Mingxing really felt that it was unnecessary for her to ask such a question. He was right in front of her, so why did she ask such a question?

But here, he had to manage his expression, not just the curve of his mouth, but also his eyes and the tone of his voice. He smiled happily: "Yeah, I didn't disturb you, did I?"

"My nephew is here," President Qian came over and greeted him with a happy face. When he saw the bandages on Gu Mingxing's face and arms, he looked distressed, as if he really felt sorry for him. "I don't know what my sister is thinking. Why would such a good child participate in training? He is covered in injuries. Come quickly. I will ask them to heal you well today."

Gu Mingxing smiled, as if they were really familiar with each other: "Thank you, uncle." He handed him the painting in his hand: "This is a gift for you."

Mr. Qian took the landscape painting in his hand and looked at the content of the painting carefully. He knew at first glance that the painting was worth some money.

"Since you are here, why do you need to bring any gifts?" He said generously, "Next time you come to my uncle's place, don't bring anything. Just come and see me."

It's a harmonious picture. Those who don't know might think that they have a very good relationship, but in fact, the number of times they have met can be counted on one hand.

"Good uncle."

Mr. Qian said to his daughter, "Daughter, go check on the kitchen. I'm going to the study to talk to my nephew."

"Ok!"

Miss Qian walked happily towards the kitchen, while Mr. Qian took Gu Mingxing to the study.

When they arrived at the study, Mr. Qian showed special concern and asked him to sit down quickly, then placed a folder in front of him.

"Sister and elder brother have not been in charge of the domestic business for many years, and have always hired people to manage it. You have a lot to do when you return this time. First of all, you have to win over the people on the board of directors. Here is their basic information and some information. It may be helpful to you."

"Thank you uncle."

Just as Gu Mingxing was about to open the file, Qian Zong held him down with one hand. Qian Zong took his hand away and said with a smile, "There's no rush to read the file. Your injury is not healed, and your sister won't let you go back. There's plenty of time."

"Uncle is right," Gu Mingxing put the document on the table and said with a smile, "I'll take a look later."

Mr. Qian's smile was more relieved: "What has your sister been busy with recently?"

Gu Mingxing raised his bandaged hand, pointed at the wound on his face and said, "Uncle, you can see that with my injury, how can I have time to know what my mother is busy with."

"Did anything happen to my sister?"

"I don't know about that either." Gu Mingxing knew that if he didn't know anything about it, this old fox would be on guard against him. He pretended to think and said, "But my dad is looking for mercenaries recently. It seems that something happened in Mexico."

"Then do you know what exactly it is?"

"I don't know about that," Gu Mingxing shook his head and said, "I went to training after I recovered from my injury. I was in the hospital when I was injured. I haven't even seen what the outside of the hospital looks like. It's impossible for me to have friends here."

"Nephew, don't you have any friends here?"

Gu Mingxing was convinced that Mr. Qian had taken the bait. As long as he continued to lead the conversation on this topic, he would be able to find out Edor's current situation.

He pretended to be wronged and sad, with a helpless smile on his face: "Yeah, I'm in the hospital every day, how can I have any friends?"

"I heard that before this training, my nephew went out to play with a local guy."

"How did uncle know?" Gu Mingxing pretended to be surprised: "Could it be that uncle knows Edor?"

Mr. Qian, the old fox, pretended to be a little surprised: "His name is Edol, I met him on the road before, but he is a robber. How did the nephew know him?"

"Thug?" Gu Mingxing looked puzzled. "He helped me before, but I didn't know he was a robber. Did he rob my uncle?"

"Yeah, these hooligans nowadays don't even consider who they are robbing," Mr. Qian said self-deprecatingly, "I guess they just saw my face and thought I had no ability to resist so they came to rob me."

"Ah," Gu Mingxing sighed, "If I had known he was such a person, I shouldn't have known him." He frowned and pretended to be angry, "If I had known he was a gangster, I shouldn't have played with him."

"My nephew, you have met the wrong person. You will be able to tell the difference after you get to know more people."

Gu Mingxing glared angrily and said through gritted teeth: "Now when I think about the fact that I treated him as a friend, but he robbed my uncle, I get angry. Next time I meet him, I will definitely beat him up. It would be best if I beat him until he grows eyes."

Mr. Qian saw his angry expression and asked while observing, "He is here now, do you want to go and see him, nephew?"

"I must see him! As soon as I see him, I will beat him to the ground and avenge my uncle."

Mr. Qian laughed and said, "I am very pleased that my nephew has such a kind heart. However, we should eat first. We can't let such an ant affect our meal."

"Uncle is right."
