Chapter 149 The Reward He Wanted

Chapter 149 the reward he wanted

The cod congee was served very quickly. It was a big hot pot. Wenren Zhen first helped gu nuan to fill a bowl, then he filled another bowl for himself.

The porridge was still delicious, and perhaps because of hunger, Gu Nuan ate three bowls in a row before he said,

"Brother fourth's porridge is so delicious."

"Then come and eat every day,"

Wenren Zhen answered with a smile.

But as soon as he finished speaking, a chuckle came from the stairs:

"Well, that's settled. Or is it a puppy?"

Gu Nuan looked back and saw Cai Si walking over in his casual clothes. Today, perhaps because his hair was slightly longer than the last time, he looked especially handsome.

"Brother fourth."

Gu Nuan did not forget that he had met his brother before.

"Brother fourth?"

Wenren Zhen glared at her, "Just call him Cai Si. He's two months younger than me."

"Hahaha,"

Cai si laughed and walked over to sit down beside Wenren Zhen. She looked at him proudly and said,

"I told you this sister was honest. Am I right?"

"Go, go,"

Wenren Zhen pretended to push him:

"Well, don't join the fun. You have a lot of people downstairs, and we have finished eating. We're going back now."

"What's the rush?"

Cai Si looked at Gu Nuan, who was eating porridge with beads of sweat on his forehead, and took out a red cloth bag from his hand and handed it to her.

"What's this?"

Gu Nuan looked at the red cloth bag in his hand and asked.

"Open it and take a look,"

Cai Si said to her with a smile on his face.

"Oh,"

Gu nuan answered, pulling the red cloth bag open and pulling out a thin string of beads.

"This... Is it for me?"

Gu Nuan looked at Cai Si in surprise.

"May day went to mount wutai and happened to be destined for the abbot, so he begged the buddha pearl to come and give it to his sister to keep her safe."

Cai si explained with a smile.

"Then I can't,"

Gu Nuan quickly pushed back.

"Brother fourth, you asked for it. You should put it on yourself to keep yourself safe."

"It's okay. I'll ask for another string next time."

Cai Si held the buddha pearl in Gu Nuan's hand again.

"I'll give you this first. I'm already familiar with the abbot anyway."

"This..."

Gu Nuan was in a dilemma. She didn't know if she should put it away. She looked up at Wenren Zhen.

"Don't look at him,"

Cai si smiled and said,

"I gave it to you. It has nothing to do with him."

"What do you mean it has nothing to do with me?"

Wenren Zhen glared at Cai Si and then said to gu nuan:

"Since Cai Si insisted on giving it to you, you should take it. How can I be so easy?"

Wenren Zhen said so. Besides, Cai Si insisted on sending it, so Gu Nuan had to accept it.

"Thank you."

Gu Nuan took the buddha pearl and looked at cai si.

"When you get married, I'll design a couple of wedding rings for you."

It was supposed to be flattering, but when she said it, she found that Cai Si's face had changed slightly. She was shocked and did not know what she had said wrong again.

"I'm already married."

After a while, cai si said faintly.

"Oh, I'm sorry,"

Gu Nuan quickly apologized.

"I'm sorry, I didn't hear anyone tell me about that. Then, when you and your wife's wedding anniversary comes, I'll help you design the rings."

"Well, that's settled then."

Cai si smiled and agreed. She got up and said to gu nuan,

"You are my sister. If anyone bullies you, tell me..."

"Get lost, get lost,"

Wenren Zhen pushed Cai Si with his hand.

"What kind of mess? Do I look like I'm just bullying people?"

"Even if it's not casual, you can't bully my sister."

Cai Si's seriousness made Gu Nuan laugh.

"All right, all right. Let's go. We have to go too."

Wenren Zhen pushed Cai Si away and grabbed Gu Nuangang's wrist, which was wearing the beads.

"Come on, let's go home."

"I haven't put on my buddha pearl yet,"

Gu Nuan exclaimed.

"This rope is a little long. I don't think I can hold it steady."

Let me see,"

Wenren Zhen immediately stopped and looked up at her hand.

"The rope is a little long. Let me put it away for you."

He asked her to sit down in the booth again, and he squatted down, untied the knot on the string of beads on her wrist, and pulled it tighter.

"Okay,"

With his deep voice, his long, white fingers slid off her wrist, and Gu Nuan saw that the beads on her wrist were just right.

"Let's go,"

He held her hand and the two of them walked downstairs together.

When she came downstairs, she saw that the hall on the first floor was still full of guests. Cai si was chatting and laughing with people in the dining room.

"Does Brother fourth own a porridge restaurant?"

Gu Nuan looked at cai si, who was busy in the restaurant, and asked,

"Isn't fourth sister-in-law coming to help?"

"He doesn't have a wife. Where did he get his fourth sister-in-law?"

Wenren Zhen gave her a blank look.

"But he just said... Married?"

Gu Nuan looked at Wenren Zhen doubtfully.

"I don't know. I haven't seen his wife, anyway."

Wenren Zhen looked at Gu Nuan and said,

"Well, let's hurry back. We have to go to work tomorrow. Don't worry about Cai Si."

Gu Nuan nodded and quickly followed him to the alley leading to the outer avenue, where the car was parked.

Back in Zhenyuan, it was already past ten in the evening.

After getting out of the car, Wenren Zhen went straight upstairs, while gu nuan tidied up some things that she had brought back from Beijing on the first floor. She also helped xia lan bring some Beijing specialties. There were many classmates today, so she didn't bring them to xia lan, so she had to give them to Xia Lan another day.

When she was done going upstairs, there was no sign of Wenren Zhen in the hall, nor was there in the bedroom, nor was there a light on in the bathroom, nor could she hear the sound of water. Obviously, no one was there.

He walked out of the bedroom and looked over at the study. As expected, he saw the light coming out of the study.

She walked over and gently pushed the door open, looking at the man sitting behind the desk, his head bowed and busy on the tablet.

"Busy, right?"

She stood in front of the desk and asked softly,

"Do you want me to make you a cup of coffee?"

"No need,"

He looked up at her at the desk.

"I'll be ready soon. You should take a shower first."

"Oh, okay,"

She answered, turned around and went out. When she reached the door, she turned around and gave a warning:

"Don't be too busy."

"Yes,"

He looked up at her, smiling at the corners of his eyes and brows.

"Don't worry, I won't let you wait too long."

Won't let her wait too long?

Gu Nuan froze for a moment, then blushed and hurried out of the study.

Looking at her fleeing figure, he was in a good mood, propping his head up with his hands and chuckling. Suddenly, he felt that such a married life was quite good.

Thinking that she told him not to work too late, he hastened his work.

By the time Gu Nuan came out of the bathroom wearing the han suit and pajamas she had brought back from Beijing, Wenren Zhen was already in the bedroom and helping her tidy up the messy dresser.

"Are you done so soon?"

Gu Nuan went over and stood beside him, looking at him in the mirror.

"Yes," he answered, helping her arrange the comb in her hand.

"It's rare for you to be so considerate."

Gu Nuan was a little embarrassed. She left in a hurry at noon and didn't even tidy up her dresser.

"I'm so considerate. Do you want to give me a reward?"

His deep voice came with a tinge of playfulness, and looking into the mirror, her eyes seemed to have gathered magic power, making her unconsciously attracted.

Reward?

Before she could regain her senses, he had already wrapped his hand around her slender waist and pulled her into his arms with a little force.

He placed his chin on her shoulder, looked at her blushing face in the mirror and asked with a smile:

"Do you want to reward me?"

"Here,"

She pushed him away with her hand and smiled generously.

"I'll get you a lollipop after work tomorrow."

Lollipop? He looked at her with a smile on his lips.

"But I can't wait to get off work tomorrow. I want to eat candy now."

"Now?"

Gu Nuan quickly shook his head.

"Now I can't bring out a lollipop. I don't usually eat candy."

But you have strawberry candy,"

He pointed out solemnly:

"I don't eat lollipops. I want strawberry candy."

"Where do I have strawberry candy?"

Gu Nuan did not react at all:

"I don't like sweets. I don't buy sweets at all."

..."

Wenren Zhen mo, well, he forgot that this woman is a piece of wood, and she can't react to it often.

"Then I want another reward,"

He gave in helplessly.

"Then what reward do you want?"

Gu Nuan, on the other hand, was easy to talk to and asked.

"I just helped you clean up the dressing table, so you can help me rub my back later."

He offered his prize with a smile.

"Rub... Rub your back?"

Gu Nuan opened his eyes wide and looked at him, then cried out in annoyance:

"Rub what back? I never rub my back in the shower."

"How is that possible?"

Wenren Zhen reached out and pulled her towards the bathroom.

"Come on, let's rub each other's backs tonight. You help me, I'll help you."

"I've already taken a shower,"

Gu Nuan struggled not to follow him into the bathroom.

"Then wash it again. Don't you say you haven't rubbed your back yet?"

He smiled and pushed her into the bathroom.

..."

Gu Nuan was speechless, and when he entered the bathroom door, he reached out and took off her chinese pajamas.

"I'll rub your back first, then you rub my back..."

...

The next day, Gu Nuan woke up staring at the two black circles, his eyes full of dissatisfaction and complaints about someone.

Last night, he said he was just rubbing his back to take a bath, but in the end, no one knew who was taking a bath for him, and he did it again and again in the bathroom.

Wenren Zhen had suggested that she take half a day off before going home to get some sleep, but before she could call Han Yize for leave, Han Yize called first.

"Gu Nuan, the client of the porcelain wedding ring you designed before the festival said that there was a place to modify. You should come to the company immediately. Ms. Wen said that he would meet you at the company at ten in the morning."

"I can't rest. The client said he wanted to talk to me. It seems that the ring wasn't designed very well."

Gu Nuan looked at Wenren Zhen helplessly.

"Drive me to work. I'll take a nap in your car."
