He finally asks the driver to take Shirla to the airport. Then he takes a taxi home.
Tiantian learns to climb these days. Seeing Gungun coming in, she quickly climbs to him with her little chubby arms and legs.
âShe seems to like good-looking people especially,â Bai Susu smiles in the sitting room, âXiaopang has been here so many times. But Tiantian never performs so warmly to him.â
The passionate baby is hugged by Gungun and rubs his face with her head.
âSister! Rub my face!â Baobao walks around Gungun. He wants to get his younger sisterâs approval about his good appearance.
Gungun holds Tiantian to the sitting room and puts her on the carpet. Baobao comes to play with his younger sister soon.
âGrandma, whereâs my mother?â He looks around and doesnât see Tang Duo.
âShe goes to find your father in the company with the twins,â Bai Susu says, âYour grandfather also stays there. Today is the companyâs annual meeting.â
Gungun thinks that his mother has told him about it a few days ago and asked him if he wanted to go. But he refused her unfeelingly at that time.
âWuyou called me this afternoon,â Bai Susu says happily, âShe asked me if I liked the cashmere pants bought last time. She wants to buy another one for me.â
âHow filial she is!â Gungun grins cheekily, âThis is my future wife!â
Bai Susu pokes him and says, âHow lucky! You must do many good things in another life so that you can easily marry Wuyou who is such a good girl.â
How hard it is to marry a good wife! The rich second generation always say that they donât want to get connections through marriage but marry true love. But few true love is equal in social status with them. Even if there are many girls like Cinderella, not all of them want to marry a rich chairman.
The chairman is not popular with girls these years!
âYou are so good. I will tell you some good news!â Bai Susu shows that she wants him to beg her.
Old people like playing as if they are little kids.
Gungun goes to hug the old lady and says, âGrandma, please! Tell me soon.â
âHa, ha, ha! Donât tickle meâ¦â Bai Susu pushes him aside and asks, âYour school is going to choose exchange students next summer, right?â
âYes. It happens every year.â Itâs not a rare thing.
Bai Susu pats his head and says, âIâve contacted with the Ivy League College. They will invite you to be the exchange student on their own initiative this year.â
âWhat?â Gungun is shocked, âIs it true?â
He barely scrapes a pass in the exam. How can he get the chance to be an exchange student?
âDid I ever cheat you?â Bai Susu smiles, âI requested an old friend in Mi Country. He owed me a favor when he was young. Besides, itâs not difficult because the university doesnât choose exchange students according to the grades.â
Then she has a look at Gungun, âAnyway, your good appearance can also win honor for our country.â
Gungun is speechless.
âAre you happy?â Bai Susu says, âSo you can go to school with Wuyou next year. When you come back, you will enter a high school. If you donât want to go home, you can study in a foreign high schoolâ¦â
Hearing the old ladyâs words, Gungun allows his mind to wander to other things. Since knowing he will die early, he has thought itâs not important to plan his future. Anyway, he has to pass through the disaster first.
In the next few days, Gungun goes out with Tang Duo every day. Itâs very busy at the end of the year. Lang Ruoxian gives him two choices. Gungun can either be Tang Duoâs subordinate or work in the company.
Gungun decisively decides to follow his mother. Sometimes he will take the twins, Fang Diandian and two siblings. Gungun becomes a manservant when the two women shop, stay at a beauty salon and do their hair.
In return, Tang Duo sends him a car generously.
âMom, Iâm under 18 and canât drive without a license.â Looking at the exclusive Hummer in front of him, Gungun thinks that Wuyou can drive it after she comes back because she likes it.
Tang Duo throws the key to him, âThis is for Wuyou. She just got an international driverâs license. You can send it to her after she comes back.â
âI thought it was a present you gave me.â Gungun says gloomily.
âItâs for you!â His mother smiles like flowers, âYou can get in this car driven by Wuyou. Itâs the same thing.â
Gungun doesnât know what to say.
On the 27th of the twelfth month of the lunar year, Wuyou gets on the plane to Hua Country. Gungun picks her up at the airport in the next afternoon with Sweet Orange. Because she badgers Gungun to go together.
âBrother, are you very worried that Wuyou may have a boyfriend there?â Sweet Orange talks endlessly on the road.
Gungun holds her little head and says, âNot at all.â
âNonsense!â Sweet Orange stays close to him and says, âIâve heard from Mom and Grandma. They said that they would support her if she loved a good man.â
Gungun is shocked.
âMom also said that you were so lucky to get her because she was very excellent. Youâ¦â
âIf you speak again, you will buy the catâs snack by yourself next month.â Gungun says angrily.
He is so sad. Are they really his mother and grandmother?
Sweet Orange immediately covers her mouth, âI havenât finished! I want to say that you are really wonderful! You are the best. You and Wuyou couldnât be more perfectly matched!â
âYou are only in the second grade. How come you know this kind of words?â Gungun thinks it funny and asks.
âI learn from a cartoon!â Sweet Orange opens her iPad and shows it to Gungun.
When the flight lands, they see Wuyou pushing her luggage cart out from afar.
âSister! Sister!â Sweet Orange waves her hands hard and shouts, âHere! Here!â
Seeing her, Wuyou also raises her hand and waves, quickening her pace.
âSister!â When Wuyou is close to her, Sweet Orange throws herself into Wuyouâs arms and says, âI miss you so much!â
Wuyou hugs her with a smile. Gungun puts them into his arms and says, âDonât believe her. She just wants the catâs food in your luggage.â
âSister, do you bring the catâs food?â Sweet Orange hurries to ask.
What her two dear cats eat is directly bought from abroad. Otherwise she will be worried about their health.
âYouâve told me. I will of course bring the food.â Wuyou pats her suitcases.
She takes two largest suitcases alone. Most of things in them are catâs food and cans.
âHow did you get through the customs with so many things?â Gungun helps the driver to put the heavy suitcases in the boot.
Wuyou gets in the car and says, âI posted in an international studentâs post bar and two domestic students were willing to help me.â
Itâs very common in the circle of international students. And she has to pay. If they help each other to bring things, it will be cheaper than paying many tariffs.
âItâs too much trouble,â Gungun has a look at Sweet Orange and says, âDonât bring them anymore. You can deliver them home directly, which will save your time even if itâs more expensive.â
Sweet Orange glances at him discontentedly. Wuyou touches Sweet Orangeâs head with a smile.
In order to welcome Wuyou home, Bai Susu cooks some dishes in person. After the whole family has dinner happily, Gungun pulls Wuyou to Lang Familyâs house first on the pretext of walking Lulu.
âIâve been paying attention to Yanjingâs flights to Mi Country recently.â Wuyou changes clothes after bathing. Then she and Gungun sit on the second floorâs balcony and have a chat.
âOnly two flights were canceled because of the weather,â Wuyou wipes her hair and says, âDoes it mean that the accident has disappeared?â
Gungun lowers his head and makes coffee for her. His eyes flash for a while. When he raises his head, he looks so proud.
âWhatâs the matter?â Wuyou smiles, âDid you do anything?â
Gungun looks at her proudly and says, âPlease call me the Bodhisattva who saves the world.â
âSo, what did you do?â
âI called the airline anonymously an hour before takeoff,â Gungun cheated calmly at that time, âI said that there was a bomb in a very secret place in their plane and it was impossible to find it.â
He says mysteriously, âItâs one of the flights to be canceled. Then I asked a rich second generation whose family holds a hotel in the airport. He told me that the reason why the flight was canceled wasnât because of the weather. They suddenly checked the plane and found something wrong with the undercarriage.â
Gungun waves his hand proudly, âI save the whole people in that plane inadvertently.â
âThatâs goodâ¦â Wuyou looks at him seriously, âI rest my heart now.â
Gungun is stunned for a moment and then smiles. Putting Wuyou in his arms, he says, âDonât worry. I havenât married you and we donât have babies. Our lives are just beginning. I wonât die earlier than you.â
âNonsense.â Feeling Wuyouâs body in his arms becomes tight suddenly, Gungun wants to continue to tease her.
But Wuyou says, âYou canât die earlier than me. I will guard you to the last moment. So I should die first when we are old. Find me soon because Iâll wait for you on the way to the netherworld. Itâs said that ghosts are also very snobbish. I will protect you not to be bullied by other ghosts.â
âOkay,â Gungun hugs her tightly, âI see.â
After sending Wuyou to her room, Gungun lies in bed for a long time. His brain is full of what Wuyou just said.
Heâs in a fret.
Why does he never study hard and always behave stupidly and naively? Thatâs because it will make Wuyou care about him all the time. In Wuyouâs view, he needs to be protected and looked after forever.
Gungun knows his affections to Wuyou. She accompanies him from childhood and is the only memory of his youth. He has decided to marry her and have babies with her. They will be together forever.
But he is not sure whether Wuyou also has the same feeling as him. In other words, Wuyou just regards him as a mission taught by Lang Ruoxian since she was adopted in childhood.
âAhâ¦â Gungun sighs, âItâs so annoying.â
Sometimes he feels that he thinks too much. No matter what feelings Wuyou has toward him, she only has him and will marry him. But when he knows that he may die, he suddenly thinks itâs lucky that Wuyou doesnât realize love.
He really hopes that Wuyou doesnât love him at this time. So if he dies, Wuyou wonât plumb the depths of despair due to his death for her whole life.
This is the hardest year in Gungunâs life. He feels more and more nervous when the third day of the lunar New Year is coming.
