The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy

Ye Guo's assistant put the small cake down and said that Assistant Chen, who was distributing afternoon tea outside, asked him to bring it in. Gu Jingcheng invited everyone in the company to have afternoon tea.

Seeing that Gu Jingcheng didn't seem to be interested in chatting with him, and hearing him praise the company's financial report for the previous quarter, he finally felt relieved.

He smiled, his face full of wrinkles, "I'm really sorry that Mr. Gu spent so much money. I'll treat Mr. Gu to dinner tonight."

Gu Jingcheng nodded slightly: "No, Mr. Ye, I appreciate your kindness. Maybe next time, I have something to do in Kyoto tonight, so I'll come to your place to take a break and chat for a while."

Just then, Chen Lingdong finished distributing afternoon tea and knocked on the door.

"By the way, Mr. Gu, the investment for the drama you mentioned earlier was in charge of Mr. Ye. I remember that it officially started filming today. I just heard from Mr. Ye's subordinates that he will have a schedule to go to the scene soon. We still have some time. Do you want to go with us?"

When Chen Lingdong said this, his tone was serious, he was just reporting to him, and Ye Guo also strongly invited him.

Gu Jingcheng took a sip of tea slowly and said, "I won't join in the fun. I remember that the script was well written, especially the casting of the female lead. I was quite impressed. I think it's worth investing in."

"If the company has cooperation in this area again in the future, we can consider her."

His tone was indifferent, and he didn't even look at Ye Guo beside him when he spoke.

Ye Guo's face was pale at this time. He kept pulling his sleeves to wipe the sweat from his forehead, saying, "Yes, yes".

"Mr. Ye, Mr. Ye..."

After Chen Lingdong shouted a few times, he finally said "Ah?"

Chen Lingdong had a professional smile on his face, friendly and sincere: "Your phone has been ringing for a long time."

Ye Guo took it, glanced at it, and hung up, saying, "Ah, it's okay, it's nothing important."

As soon as he hung up, the phone rang again. He hung up, but the other party kept calling again.

Finally, when he was impatient and wanted to turn off the phone, Gu Jingcheng said, "Mr. Ye, why don't you answer it and don't delay the business. It's nothing important for me, so I won't bother you."

As he spoke, he stood up and buttoned his suit jacket. Chen Lingdong stopped Ye Guo who was about to follow him to see him off, "Mr. Ye, please stay."

As soon as the two of them left the office, Ye Guo answered the phone. It was his fierce wife calling.

The person on the other end started yelling at him, and what he was talking about was, coincidentally, the fact that he had a mistress.

Ye Guo felt a chill on his back and immediately hung up the phone call from his wife who was accusing him of something. He then took out the number on the recorded phone call and dialed it.

——On the set——

The photographer put away his equipment and chatted with the staff who were cleaning up nearby.

"Do you think our crew is having trouble?"

"Who knows? The lead actor was changed on the day before the filming started, and the filming was suspended after less than a day. What do you think happened?"

"Could it be that the new investor is going to do something weird?"

"Hey~ This is not something you and I should worry about. Hurry up and pack it up. It will be the next early shift."

As the two were talking, the work group received a new notification that the original filming plan for the past week had been completely changed, and there was no role for the female lead in the weekly plan.

Everyone was speculating that something had happened to the new actor. Was it time to replace him again?

"Actually, I think the previous one was pretty good, he wasn't arrogant, and the image guy was more suitable, unlike this one, who likes to act like a big shot and is difficult to please."

"I think so too. This morning, makeup artist Xiao Xu was scolded so hard that she cried and hid in the toilet..."

The two were talking in low voices when they saw the person they were talking about as a big shot hung up the phone, angrily threw her coat to the assistant behind her, and walked away with a sullen face, stepping on her high heels.

In the afternoon, Shen Li returned to the Gu family's old house for dinner.

Qian Hui greeted her warmly as usual. Gu Jingchuan hid in the room mysteriously for the whole afternoon and only showed up when she came back.

She came back suddenly without telling him in advance. Gu Zhengrong went to Huo Jun's manor to fish in the morning and had not returned yet.

Knowing that he was back, the old man broke his promise to have dinner at Huo Jun's house.

After Gu Jingcheng left Ye Guo, he went straight back to Kyoto.

When he returned to the old house, the sun was setting. The golden sunlight slanted through the glass window and spread onto the kitchen. Shen Li was busy in the kitchen with her long hair tied behind her head and wearing an apron.

As soon as he entered the door, the sweet smell of baking bread wafted through the room. Shen Li, wearing thick baking gloves, took the freshly baked cake base out of the oven and prepared to spread butter on it. He turned around and saw Gu Jingcheng leaning against the door frame.

Her eyes were slightly narrowed, tender and gentle, with a faint smile at the corners of her mouth.

"Aren't you on a business trip? How did you get back?"

Shen Li's eyes were full of surprise. She ran to him in small steps and took off the baking gloves she had raised in the air.

Gu Jingcheng took off his gloves gently and carefully, "I came back early after finishing the work."

Shen Li smiled, put her arms around his waist, buried her face in his chest, and greedily sniffed the faint cedar and ebony scent on his body.

Along with the rise and fall of her chest, she heard a chuckle from the person above her head. Then, strong arms wrapped around her and his chin rested gently on top of her head.

Qian Hui, who came back with the ingredients, saw two figures huddled together at the kitchen door from a distance. She lowered her head, smiled, and turned back.

"I feel like I haven't seen you for a long, long time. Gu Jingcheng, I miss you so much."

There was a hint of imperceptible grievance in the gentle voice. Shen Li tightened his hands, as if he was afraid that the person would run away.

Gu Jingcheng keenly caught her little emotion and gently kissed her on the top of her head.

He knew that Shen Li was upset because she was replaced, but she didn't mention it on her own initiative, so Gu Jingcheng found other topics.

"Are you...making a cake?"

Shen Li raised her head, looked at him with her sparkling eyes, and nodded as if asking for praise.

"Well, Sister Qian actually passed the exam for a senior pastry chef. She taught me."

Speaking of Qian Hui, Shen Li suddenly remembered something. She loosened her arms around Gu Jingcheng's waist, leaned behind him, and asked curiously, "Hey? Sister Qian said she was going to get something. She hasn't come back in such a long time."

Gu Jingcheng walked to the operating table, looked at the cake base in front of him and nodded approvingly: "Well, it's well done. Is it time to spread the cream?"

"Can you?" Shen Li stood beside him and asked with his head tilted.

Gu Jingcheng chuckled and shook his head: "I'm still better at cooking noodles."

The noodles he cooked...

Shen Li recalled the bowl of noodles that Gu Jingcheng cooked for her when they first moved into the old house, most of which went into Gu Jingchuan's stomach.

At the time I thought the taste was just average, but now that I think about it, it’s not that bad.

Shen Li searched for tutorials online, and the two completed the remaining steps together.

They said they worked together, but in fact it was just Shen Li who did the work, and Gu Jingcheng helped her and passed things to her.

Shen Li's hands-on ability is pretty good. She made a six-inch small cake, covered it with cream, decorated it with flowers, poured it with strawberry jam that she had prepared in advance, and finally put a few strawberries on it for garnish. It looked pretty good.

It looked rough, but it was her first time and she was satisfied.

"Yeah, not bad, I think I have a talent for being a pastry chef."

As he said this, he cut a small piece and put it on the plate, then scooped a small spoonful and fed it to Gu Jingcheng.

He ate and nodded sincerely, "Delicious."

Gu Jingchuan stood at the kitchen door at some point in time, rolled his eyes and made a "tsk~" sound.

The two looked over, and he obediently and enthusiastically called Gu Jingcheng: "Brother."

Under Gu Jingcheng's warning eyes, he added: "Sister-in-law."
