However, Gu Shaoyu, who was in love, firmly believed that Lin Yunchu would not do such an extreme thing to him as reported in the news, so he held his breath and calmed down, carefully pushing aside the pile of raffia for shock absorption... and saw two boxes, one large and one small, tightly packed underneath.

Gu Shaoyu: “?” Matryoshka dolls?

After pushing aside all the raffia, the sticky notes with large characters written on the two boxes were revealed. The large box almost occupied two-thirds of the express box. It was the one that Lin Yunchu specifically gave to Xiang Huanian.

As for the remaining one-third, it was probably due to social etiquette, or perhaps, while preparing the gift to thank Xiang Huanian, he thought of Gu Shaoyu and felt that since it was something being sent to the Gu family, it would be a bit unreasonable not to prepare something for Gu Shaoyu?

Lin Yunchu suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to prepare a gift for Gu Shaoyu on a not-so-important anniversary because she was busy with work. Immediately, this guy got angry. Then, Lin Yunchu coaxed Gu Shaoyu, who was crying and saying "You don't love me", for a long time before she calmed him down.

God knows, she just forgot that it was the anniversary of their first candlelight dinner together...

Therefore, based on past experience and comprehensive considerations, Lin Yunchu added a box containing a gift for Gu Shaoyu and some local specialties.

The main purpose is to comfort.

Gu Shaoyu pursed his lips when he saw the obvious size difference between the two boxes, but under the nose of Xiang Huanian, the owner of the other box, Gu Shaoyu said nothing and did not continue to open the box.

Lin Yunchu had written a special note to distinguish the one for Xiang Huanian, and with his good upbringing, Gu Shaoyu would never encourage others to open gifts in front of him purely out of curiosity.

As the gift giver and receiver, they have the right to protect their privacy and not let anyone know if the contents are legal.

Gu Shaoyu also did not say anything based on this courtesy, because he also did not want the things Lin Yunchu gave him to be seen by others. What if... there was something inappropriate for children in the box?

Moreover, seeing the contrast between the large and small boxes, Gu Shaoyu was really afraid. When she opened the box, she would find only some local specialties inside, without any atmosphere of a gift for her boyfriend.

So Gu Shaoyu returned to the dinner table and picked up his chopsticks to eat again. However, the way he looked at Xiang Huanian was like a third party who had stolen his girlfriend, and he felt a little resentful.

Xiang Huanian, who had excellent eyesight and saw the large characters on the two pieces of paper, said: "..." I'm so sorry, I didn't expect things to turn out this way...

Then, in an eerie and quiet atmosphere, the three of them finished their breakfast.

Knowing his brother's character, Gu Lingyan took the lead in picking up the plates and started to clean up, and said to Gu Shaoyu:

"Okay, go check on your present. If you don't open it now, you'll be nagging about it all day and won't be able to do your job properly. Don't ruin my entire set of plates."

Gu Shaoyu: “.”

Gu Shaoyu, whose thoughts were touched, pouted and took out his box from the express box with anticipation and a little fear.

Fortunately, there were some scattered items at the bottom of the box, which at a glance were local specialties.

Very good, Gu Shaoyu could finally put his mind at ease. His gift did not become a souvenir for business courtesy!

that is really good!

Then, Gu Lingyan received a box of scattered local specialties from his brother and sister-in-law, and Gu Shaoyu received a box of gifts from his girlfriend that he almost forgot to care about. Although he didn't know what was inside, Gu Shaoyu was happy.

The biggest winner was Xiang Huanian. Thanks to Gu Lingyan's thoughtfulness, the huge gift box was moved into Xiang Huanian's room and placed neatly on the table, waiting to be opened carefully when she was alone.

However, during this period, a small incident occurred in Xiang Huanian's room:

Gu Lingyan put down the big gift box and went out immediately without being shy as usual.

Instead, he stayed there for a while, looking at Xiang Huanian with a bit of hesitation in his eyes, as if he was hesitating about how to word it.

"Is there anything else you want to tell me, Mr. Gu?"

Seeing this, Xiang Huanian was the first to ask.

"Well, there's something I want to tell you."

Gu Lingyan nodded, and then, seriously and earnestly, spoke to Xiang Huanian, as if he was going to talk about some heavy topic.

Xiang Huanian thought he had made some mistake, and immediately straightened his back and stood at attention, with barrages of comments flashing through his mind:

what happened?

Did I get caught because I secretly ate several ice creams before?

Or was it that I was discovered when I tasted the food in advance while cooking, and ended up not having enough for three people?

"…It's about the chip from last night."

His wild thoughts stopped immediately, and Xiang Huanian quickly became serious, as if facing a powerful enemy.

Perhaps he was amused by the serious and solemn expression on the little girl's face, Gu Lingyan's expression relaxed and he comforted Xiang Huanian:

"You don't have to be so cautious. I saw you looked at me this morning as if you had a lot of questions, so I came to ask you."

Xiang Huanian: “!”

Was he discovered again?

"Can you tell me? But last night, Mr. Gu, your expression before you left was so serious. I didn't think you were in a position to speak..."

When talking about gossip, Xiang Huanian's eyes lit up. When Gu Lingyan thought about what he was going to say next, he always felt inexplicably guilty and could not look directly into Xiang Huanian's pure and beautiful eyes.

In fact, if it were someone else, Gu Lingyan would just have to tell them to shut up.

But when it came to Xiang Huanian, Gu Lingyan found that he couldn't do it.

"It's something I can't tell you..."

In the circle of business wars, Gu Lingyan, who has always been successful, suddenly felt that he might not be able to speak anymore.

How could he tactfully tell Xiang Huanian, who was looking forward to it, that he needed to keep it a secret?

"Ah~Okay, I will keep it strictly confidential."

Xiang Huanian expressed disappointment, but also understanding, and made a zippering gesture at his mouth.

"Ah."

Gu Lingyan stared at Xiang Huanian with his dark eyes, and then responded.

No one knows what he is thinking.

"Brother! Shall we go to the company?"

By the time Gu Shaoyu finished dealing with the oversized express box in the living room, it was almost time.

"coming."

This time, Gu Lingyan did not linger any longer, turned around, and walked out of the house.

According to the tacit understanding they had developed over the past few days, Gu Lingyan and Gu Shaoyu stood at the door. After getting dressed, the first thing they did was not to open the door and walk out. Instead, they turned around and looked at the man, cat, and dog walking towards them with gentle and expectant expressions.

Waiting for Xiang Huanian to lead An An and Le Le to the entrance and say to them:

"Be careful on the road."

"Well, let's go."
