"Oh?" Ye zhiqiao looked at gu mohan with a smile, then turned to ask little treasure, "What has dad done recently?"
Little treasure frowned and thought about it seriously. Then he said one by one, "Daddy is coming home to eat with me every day, and he plays with me after dinner, and he tells me stories at night, and then he learns to cook with grandma li. When aunt ye is not home, he cleans up aunt ye's room every day, right -"
Little treasure turned around and pointed to the large backpack that the two of them were carrying when they came in, then said, "And these thick clothes that auntie ye needs to wear. Dad brought them all here."
Ye zhiqiao thought that little treasure simply wanted to say good things to gu mohan, but she didn't expect gu mohan to do so much when he was not at home.
He came to the office early every day to see her, and at night he returned home late because he had to deliver dinner, but he still managed to find time to take care of little treasure and learn to cook with aunt Li?
Ye zhiqiao smiled and looked at gu mohan. This time, she was not joking like the last time, but really grateful and touched.
Gu mohan did not expect little treasure to tell him everything he had done. Although he was happy to feel ye zhiqiao's gaze, he was still a little embarrassed.
He often spoke in front of everyone, and there were many media interviews, but he was never as nervous as he is now, so he had to lower his head and concentrate on eating, pretending that nothing was wrong.
But ye zhiqiao's gaze did not leave him for a moment. If that gaze had substance, it could not be ignored no matter what.
After a long time, gu mohan finally lost and looked up at ye zhiqiao.
Ye zhiqiao's eyes were already full of smiles. For the first time, she found that the calm and elegant gu mohan was also very cute when he was shy.
Gu mohan cleared his throat and ordered with a stern face, "Eat quickly."
"Poof!" Ye zhiqiao was amused by his pretended seriousness. When she saw his "Warning" eyes, she slowly put away her smile, but her eyes couldn't help but squint with a smile.
Gu mohan lowered his head and continued eating. When no one noticed, the corners of his mouth gently rose.
It felt really strange.
It was clear that when they were in Oslo, the two of them were often upset about little treasure, and the atmosphere was always weird when they got along with each other. Everyone looked a little uncomfortable, but after returning to china, because of the accumulation of things, the discord between the two disappeared little by little. Even a look and a smile just now made them realize the tacit understanding between each other.
A few months ago, the night that gu mohan was angry, the messy and broken night, which brought ye zhiqiao anger, disappointment and disgust, seemed to disappear with this smile, and were completely forgotten by both of them.
At around eleven o' clock in the night, gu mohan came to deliver supper to ye zhiqiao. Xiao bao had already fallen asleep and did not follow him.
Ye zhiqiao looked at gu mohan's obviously sleepy eyes and said worriedly, "I think you are more tired than me. Can you stop bringing me food in the future? I promise I will eat and sleep on time."
"I would believe you."
Gu mohan took off his coat and asked ye zhiqiao to eat quickly. He began to clean up the papers on the floor and the sundries on the table.
Ye zhiqiao couldn't stand it. She pulled him to sit next to her and grabbed the white paper in his hand, "Don't do this all the time. Every day, besides sending me food and cleaning the room, you're almost a nanny. How can I be so nice?"
Gu mohan pinched her cheek and said with a smile, "What are you feeling bad about? I volunteered to do this, and you work here day and night for me, too?"
"That's not the same. I was just... Aye! No more! No more!"
This was not the end of the conversation. Ye zhiqiao didn't think it was time to argue about who did more for whom.
"Anyway, I don't care. I'll sort these things out myself. If you work again, I... I won't let you come next time."
Ye zhiqiao's expression was sincere. Gu mohan knew that she was not joking, so he put the things in his hands aside and leaned back on the chair behind him, "What should I do now?"
"Of course I want you to go home and sleep."
As soon as ye zhiqiao finished speaking, gu mohan shook his head resolutely.
Ye zhiqiao also knew that it was impossible. Gu mohan would watch her finish her supper every day and then lie down in bed before leaving, although she would secretly get up and continue working after gu mohan left.
"Then..." Ye zhiqiao thought for a while, pointed to the back of the chair behind him and said, "You just close your eyes and rest for a while. I'll call you when I finish eating."
Gu mohan did not object. He closed his eyes obediently and put his legs on the sofa beside him.
Ye zhi coincidentally saw that he was resting, so she opened the lunch box and prepared to eat.
Inside was a packed barbecue. Ever since ye zhiqiao said that she loved barbecue, gu mohan would buy it for her every once in a while. Every time, he would say, "It's not good for your health if you eat too much of it. Don't eat it all the time." Next time, they will buy it back.
Ye zhiqiao smiled helplessly and felt that it was impossible not to be touched. She felt that gu mohan was more like a family member than just a good impression.
Her mind was in a mess. The food in the box was getting less and less and was gradually eaten clean.
Ye zhiqiao tidied up the lunch box and looked at the time, thinking that it was almost time to call gu mohan up.
She walked back to the table and saw that gu Mohan was sleeping soundly with his eyes closed.
There were no headlights in the room, only a warm yellow lamp beside the table, covered with a lace lampshade, and the light was faint and hazy.
Gu mohan was facing the light source, so half of his chiseled face was hidden in the dark, and the other half was revealed in front of ye zhiqiao, like a sleeping beauty.
Ye zhiqiao had always known that gu mohan was good-looking. Although he was thin, his bones were well-proportioned, and his wheat-colored skin added a sense of stability to him. Right now, he was sleeping soundly, his sharp and deep eyes were closed, and the cold feeling was mostly gone. His thick eyelashes were hanging over his lower eyelids, and sometimes they trembled slightly. The lines of his nose were much softer than usual, and his lips...
As she was observing his facial features, ye zhiqiao moved closer and was wondering why there was a small piece of meat in the middle of his upper lip. Suddenly, a big hand covered his back and he fell forward uncontrollably.
