Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

"Chengcheng, it's only eight o'clock, are you going back to your room to sleep?"

Gu Pan looked at the friend's offline notification on the screen and asked questions, not forgetting to operate his Japanese melon body, braving the hail of bullets and knocking out a corn man.

"I have an appointment tonight." He opened the cabin door, minding his own business, "You and your brother can play."

After Gu Pan used up his skills and took advantage of the time to recover his energy, he raised his hand and waved to Gu Cheng: "Then you're busy, just don't stay up late."

Gu Cheng looked back at the translucent glass of her cabin, which showed Gu Pan bouncing again and projecting his Japanese body in a parabola. He whispered "Hello" and walked back to the room.

In the cabin, Gu Cheng's eyes wandered around the closet.

After thinking for a moment, I chose a silk long-sleeved thin shirt and cotton loose black trousers.

The small V-neck on the chest of the thin shirt is not revealing, so it is also very suitable for wearing before going to bed.

But now, it seems to have some tempting meaning, which makes people daydream.

Gu Cheng obviously realized this after finishing the selection. He pinched the fabric in his hand, was stunned, and said to himself: "Am I... nervous?"

It's like careful preparation on the eve of a confession, hoping that the moment the other person sees him, he will occupy the other person's entire sight, and his eyes will no longer be able to accommodate anyone else.

"I'm so crazy."

Gu Cheng murmured, but did not let go of the clothes in his hands. Instead, he took them into the bathroom.

Crazy, this may be the only time in this life.

*

The side hall of the Prince's Palace.

"That's it for today. I'll deal with the rest tomorrow." Pei Mingxu said solemnly: "Unless there is something urgent that I have to deal with tonight, please don't disturb me."

The subordinates looked at each other, but nodded in agreement.

Pei Mingxu stood up and left, returned to the inner hall and said to his personal maid: "No one is allowed to walk around in the inner hall tonight. My bedroom and study are listed as undisturbed areas."

The maid also bowed respectfully.

At ten minutes past eight, the entire inner hall was already silent. There was no sound of movement in the corridor, but the lights were as bright as day.

Pei Mingxu was soaking in the bathtub, but his handwritten notes were placed on the floating table.

He didn't realize it until he finished this note last night.

It turned out that Gu Cheng had already penetrated into every aspect of his life in the past thirty years.

When they first met, he thought he would not interact with this kid who had no background, poor grades, and only a face that was barely enough to look at.

He thought that his campus life would be a battle of wits and courage with the other children who were left behind in Capital Star to serve as hostages.

Pull each other down.

In the small society of campus, we are going through the same struggle as our parents.

But in fact, throughout his youth, it was Gu Cheng.

In those years, they rebelled against rigid teachers, held trophies in competitions, and enjoyed flowers and ribbons.

At the sports venue, Gu Cheng waved weakly after a long run and he subconsciously extended his hand to catch it.

In the mecha practical class, they cooperated closely, looking back to back at the wreckage on the field, and in the maintenance class, they worked together hand-to-hand with tools.

They spent a wonderful time as students together, and even though they were separated after college, their connection was not severed.

Instead, the time gap made them closer.

I don't know since when, their relationship no longer resembles that of superiors and subordinates, but another way, similar to friends.

Gu Cheng was obviously much more perceptive than him and noticed the changes in their relationship, which was why he confessed later.

But he was stuck in the original relationship and couldn't get out of it.

Thinking of this, Pei Mingxu's eyes darkened, he breathed a long sigh of relief, and whispered: "It's so stupid."

Wow!

Pei Mingxu stood up from the water, simply put on his bathrobe, and appeared in the cloakroom the next moment.

As he walked through all kinds of clothes, whether serious or lively, he always frowned, never satisfied.

Until he stood in the gorgeous dress he wore when he returned from victory and his father announced his position as prince and officially took over his father's government affairs.

"Would it be too formal?"

Pei Mingxu lowered his eyes in thought, but after a moment he took off the clothes and turned around and entered the dressing room.

Now he can't control so much, this is his last chance.

In a flash, the time came to nine-fifty, and they were still ten minutes away from the agreed time.

Gu Cheng sat next to the single sofa near the round window, facing the twinkling starlight, and leisurely turning the pages of the book under the desk lamp.

But now he is still stuck on this page ten minutes ago, which is enough to show that he is uneasy at the moment.

But after a while, the communication interface popped up on the optical computer, and the three characters Pei Mingxu were so conspicuous.

Gu Cheng thought, and after taking a deep breath, he raised his hand to pick it up, and his sitting posture immediately became upright.

However, Pei Mingxu, who was on the other side of the light screen, reacted more seriously than he did.

He was dressed in a white military uniform, with light yellow tassels hanging from his shoulders, and four or five shining military medals on his chest, all of which were honors he had won on the battlefield over the years.

Dressed like a display cabinet.

However, Pei Mingxu still had a sullen face and said hello while sitting upright: "Good evening."

Gu Cheng tried his best to ignore the associations in his mind, closed the book calmly, and said hello with a smile.

"I'm starting."

Pei Mingxu tried to open his mouth several times to say some prepared greetings, but all ended in failure.

In the end, he just said this sentence dryly, like the announcement before a report meeting.

Gu Cheng: "Okay, you say."

Gu Cheng was completely free to wait for his follow-up.

But for a long time, Pei Mingxu was unable to utter a single word.

"Have you started?"

Pei Mingxu pursed his lips: "Start immediately."

Then, Pei Mingxu seemed to have given up on something. He secretly reached out and took out an orange-gray notebook from under the table, looking ahead with a cold face.

Gu Cheng was stunned.

Is his plan so indescribable? Even His Highness, who often delivers speeches, can't finish his speech!

Suddenly, Gu straightened his body and listened carefully.

"I have made a four-step plan for our future."

He stretched out his fingers and counted: "The first step is dating. The second step is getting engaged. The third step is getting married. The fourth step is retirement."

Gu Cheng: "..."

Normal people's lives seem to follow these four steps.

Pei Mingxu pointed out seriously: "In the first stage, I plan to let you adapt to my company for one month, hold hands for three months, hug for five months, and kiss for seven months, and strive to complete the prerequisites for the second step of engagement by next New Year. ”

Gu Cheng: "..."

Pei Mingxu continued: "Our engagement can be chosen on February 2, which is yesterday this time next year, which happens to be the first anniversary of our love."

"Or May 20th. This is an important day for lovers recorded in ancient times."

"I estimate that I will get engaged next year and get married the year after that. If you want to have a child, we can do genetic pregnancy and train a child. If you don't want to have a child, I will train my younger brother and sister to make them capable. "

"In short, I strive to complete the handover of rights before the age of 100. Calculated according to normal life span, the next 200 years will be our two-person world time."

Perhaps because he had entered a familiar rhythm, Pei Mingxu's thinking was extremely clear: "Before that, you don't have to worry about other obstacles."

"You don't have to worry about conflicts between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. My father and mother are very willing for me to put down work and accompany my partner."

"And as a qualified veteran attacker, I will also rank you first in terms of work..."

"and many more!"

Although Gu Cheng in front felt that this step by step was too detailed and seemed a bit like rushing to a scene, he still understood it.

After all, according to the actual situation, this progress is not very fast.

It wasn't until he heard what he just said that Gu Cheng suddenly realized a problem that neither of them had considered.

They bumped up!
