Chapter 21

The next day.

At seven o'clock in the morning, it was rare for Lu Qiuyuan to get up early.

"Sister-in-law Zhang, how long do you need to cook this porridge? Do you want to put this green onion now? Wait, where is the salt?" Following Lu Qiuyuan's hundred questions, Mrs. Zhang's head grew bigger.

On weekdays, when Lu Qiuyuan went into the kitchen, at most he soaked milk, cut up fruit, and made small desserts.This is the first time he cooks Chinese food with real knives and guns. Although it is just a bowl of beef porridge, it has been a long time.

"Sir, I'll do it." Mrs. Zhang would rather Lu Qiuyuan sleep in than come to the kitchen early in the morning to "make trouble".

"I just want to cook porridge for Ji Mu, why is it so difficult?" Lu Qiuyuan looked at the unknown porridge in the pot, and deeply felt the difficulty of the chef, "Actually, I cooked porridge before, and it was obviously quite difficult at that time." OK……"

But Mrs. Zhang is an old man who has worked in Gu's family for many years. She is the most accurate at Lu Qiuyuan's temper, and comforted her: "Mr.'s hands are for research and learning, so naturally he is not good at these household tasks. Cooking porridge for Young Master Ji It’s fine if you have something you want, and I’ll do the rest. Sir, you can go out to read the morning newspaper, have a cup of coffee, and have breakfast in a while.”

Coaxed out of the kitchen by Mrs. Zhang with a few words, Lu Qiuyuan saw Gu Yuanchen who was about to go out for a run.

Gu Yuanchen was surprised, showing a ghostly expression: "Dad?"

"Why, I can't get up early?" Lu Qiuyuan sat down calmly, "Is it strange that I get up early?"

Gu Yuanchen couldn't retort: ​​"It's just... quite rare."

"By the way, when you come back from your run, buy some strawberry milk at a nearby convenience store." Lu Qiuyuan hinted, "Don't Ji Mu like to drink it? I wanted to drink it even when I was sick yesterday. You can buy some... No, buy some box."

"?"

"You made him hiccup from crying yesterday." Lu Qiuyuan supported his forehead, "Every day he knows how to speak harshly, and he doesn't know who he looks like."

Maybe Gu Yuanchen is more like Gu Qianming in this aspect?Thinking of this, Lu Qiuyuan became even more angry.

Gu Yuanchen was inexplicably involved in his emotions, very innocent.

Lu Qiuyuan took a sip of his coffee, feeling refreshed: "Let's not mention the marriage contract first, the visitor is a guest, so there is no way to treat guests like you." He couldn't help but say a few words to Gu Yuanchen as soon as he opened his mouth.

Gu Yuanchen was educated by Lu Qiuyuan for a long time, and even the time for exercising was almost delayed. Before going out, he said: "Dad, you are always like this, that's why Ze'an is spoiled by you. His father never wants him to come. Our parents live." After speaking, he shook his head and closed the door decisively.

Lu Qiuyuan was speechless, but he thought it was funny: "The couple of the Lu family dote on their sons so much that they spoil their sons so much that they don't know how they are spoiled by me?"

Ji Mu had already woken up when he smelled the aroma of porridge.He didn't sleep much all night, and every morning, he thought about making breakfast for Gu Yuanchen, so he simply got up.

When he walked into the living room, it happened that Lu Qiuyuan had gone to the kitchen.

In the huge living room, at some point stood a strange middle-aged male Alpha.Ji Mu took a step forward, only to realize that this man was actually no stranger.His photos will often appear in newspapers, the Internet, and the news. His facial features are very similar to Gu Yuanchen's, so Ji Mu has a strong impression of him.

He is Gu Yuanchen's alpha father, and also the president of Gu's enterprise - Gu Qianming.

"You are?" Gu Qianming's tone was not good. He didn't like having strangers in his family very much, so he took the lead in asking.He frowned, with a cold expression on his face, with an attitude of keeping strangers away.

"Hello." Ji Mu was glad that he didn't come out in pajamas, and the sweater he was wearing was decent even if he was at home.He bowed: "I am Ji Feng's son, Ji Mu."

Gu Qianming paused for a moment: "Ji Mu?"

Obviously, the Ji Mu he was talking about was not the Ji Mu in front of him.

It's just that the pronunciation of "Mu" and "Mu" are the same, and there is no difference in words only, and it will not attract excessive attention from others.

"Hello, Uncle Gu." Ji Mu stood on the spot cautiously, "I'm staying here temporarily because of a foot injury, so I'm bothering you."

After saying that, Lu Qiuyuan came out of the kitchen, and when he saw Gu Qianming, his originally gentle expression suddenly became indifferent: "Why are you back?"

"I'm going to X city for a meeting this morning, and I left a document at home." Gu Qianming didn't mean to talk to Lu Qiuyuan.

Lu Qiuyuan did the same, muttering casually: "Just call and have someone send it to you."

Gu Qianming didn't answer, and went straight upstairs to the bedroom.He and Lu Qiuyuan slept in separate rooms many years ago, and this document was actually in Lu Qiuyuan's bedroom, so it was no wonder that it was convenient for someone to come back and get it.Because Lu Qiuyuan is a bit of a clean freak, he doesn't like strangers entering his private space.

When he went downstairs, porridge and some breakfast were already on the table.

Mrs. Zhang said nicely, "Mr. Gu, if you have time, why don't you leave after breakfast? It just so happens that there are some of your favorite foods today."

Gu Qianming looked at the time, and it was actually too late.But he took another look at Lu Qiuyuan who sat down and started drinking porridge, and couldn't help frowning: "No need, I'm in a hurry."

After finishing speaking, he politely said to Ji Mu: "Young Master Ji, I'm not greeting you well."

"Uncle Gu, you are too serious." Ji Mu got up quickly.

Gu Qianming stared at him for a while, then suddenly asked suspiciously: "I remember your name, it's 'Mu' from Three Points of Water, right?"

"It used to be, but later it was changed to the ending curtain." Ji Mu explained, standing up straight respectfully, "My father said that I had greeted you and Uncle Lu in advance about changing my name."

Unexpectedly, Gu Qianming didn't know about this at all, he just felt that Ji Mu looked a little different from the one he saw when he visited Ji's house four years ago for business, so he asked one more question.But at that time, Gu Qianming didn't look at "Ji Mu" very carefully, so his doubts only existed for a moment before dissipating.

"Although these trivial things are not important, you should tell me about them sometimes."

He is a rigid person with relatively traditional ideas.After learning that Lu Qiuyuan didn't tell him about this, Gu Qianming was obviously displeased, but he never criticized Lu Qiuyuan. On the contrary, he said politely to Lu Qiuyuan: "I've been busy these days. I'm more concerned."

Lu Qiuyuan gave a soft "hmm".

As soon as Gu Qianming left, the rain outside instantly fell again.

It rained a lot.

Lu Qiuyuan drank the porridge slowly with a spoon, but whispered in his heart: I can't kill you, Gu Qianming.

However, Gu Qianming got into a private car and left as soon as he went out.It was Lu Qiuyuan's son Gu Yuanchen who was really drenched.

Fortunately, Gu Yuanchen's body is strong, and he didn't catch a cold even after being drenched in the rain in early winter.

It's hard for him to remember to bring strawberry milk when he comes back.

At first, Ji Mu didn't recognize what the box of things in his hand was, so he just gave him a dry towel in a panic.Gu Yuanchen put the milk on the ground, without the towel for Jimu.

He hurriedly took a shower, changed into casual clothes, and when he came down, Mrs. Zhang had already arranged the bowls and chopsticks for him.Lu Qiuyuan sat on the sofa and peeled an apple, and handed it to Ji Mu after peeling. There was a bottle of strawberry milk on the coffee table that he just had a few sips of.

"It rained heavily just after winter, and the temperature dropped a lot. You should dress warmly when you go out these days." Lu Qiuyuan told Ji Mu, and after speaking, he said to Gu Yuanchen, "Remember to drink the ginger soup on the table, Xiao Mu just now I cooked it for you."

With red ears, Ji Mu took small bites of the apple and ate it, not daring to take credit for it.

After eating a few mouthfuls, Lu Qiuyuan sighed and said: "The dormitory building of C University is relatively old, and I don't know if there is a new one for the air conditioner in your dormitory. It is easy to catch a cold if it is a little cold in winter...Xiao Mu, why not You go through the day-to-day formalities and live directly at home."

Gu Yuanchen behind him was almost choked by the ginger soup.

Ji Mu quickly refused: "Uncle Lu, it's convenient to go to class in the dormitory. Besides, the air conditioner in my dormitory is quite good, and there is no problem in cooling in summer."

Besides, Ji Mu used to live in Ji's house, but he lived in an old attic. There was no such thing as an air conditioner, and even the heating could not be supplied to his attic.When it was hot in summer, he would go to the servant's room to lay the floor, and when it was cold in winter, he would spread some extra clothes on top of the quilt to keep warm. How could it be so delicate?This illness was just an accident, and it came down to his overdose of inhibitors.

Ji Mu thought he was rough-skinned and thick-skinned, but he also understood Lu Qiuyuan's worry.

Because in their eyes, he is the young master Ji who was kept in a honey jar by Ji's family since he was a child. Unbelievable, he is actually a counterfeit.

Seeing that Lu Qiuyuan refused to agree, Ji Mu continued to explain: "Uncle Lu, I still have evening classes this semester, so it will be more convenient to go back to the dormitory then."

Listening to Ji Mu making various excuses, Lu Qiuyuan felt like a bright mirror in his heart.During Ji Mu's stay at Gu's house, Gu Yuanchen's attitude has always been quite indifferent.In this case, no one has the confidence to continue living in Leng.He felt sorry, but he didn't force Ji Mu to do what he wanted.

Perhaps it was because Ji Mu was ready to move back anytime, and after about a week, his feet were completely swollen.The strawberry milk at home is gradually running out, and the remaining bottles of Jimu are used sparingly.

Gu Yuanchen saw him, and under Lu Qiuyuan's urging, he "consciously" brought another box back, which made Ji Mu very embarrassed.

And Lu Qiuyuan took Ji Mu to the hospital for a check-up, and after confirming that he was fine, he let Ji Mu pack his luggage with peace of mind, and repeatedly told him not to take excessive inhibitors.

Early this morning, taking advantage of no one at home, Ji Mu made an appointment with Lu Ze'an, but actually wanted to borrow his car.

"Tell me, which shopping mall are you going to?" Lu Ze'an was dressed very trendy, with a red wool cap on his head, and a wool ball at the top, which looked very cute.But what is certain is that Lu Ze'an skipped class again today, and it's the same as if he didn't attend this repeat class, and he usually relies on Ji Mu's help for tutoring.

According to Lu Ze'an's words, Ji Mu's way of thinking about the topic was twice as clear as that of the teachers in the repeat class. For this reason, Lu Ze'an said that Ji Mu is actually very suitable to be a teacher.

"Brother An." Ji Mu has been calling Lu Ze'an like this since he knew that Lu Ze'an was one year older than him, "Do you know where the vegetable market here is bigger?"

"The vegetable market?" Lu Ze was taken aback. He had never been to a vegetable market when he grew up. "Why don't you let Mrs. Zhang go?"

How does he know where the vegetable market is?

Ji Mu said in embarrassment: "Sister-in-law Zhang asked for leave today, otherwise I wouldn't bother you."

"You didn't say it earlier, if I knew about it, I would have brought out my nanny."

There was no way, Lu Ze'an used his mobile phone to navigate a nearby vegetable market.Holding the strawberry milk Ji Mu gave him in his hand, he drank two gulps, as if he had accepted Ji Mu's "bribe" and had to help.Lu Ze'an likes racing cars, but today when Ji Mu was in his car, he slowed down the car thoughtfully, for fear of frightening this gentle and temperless Ji Mu.

After arriving at the destination, Lu Ze'an hesitated.

This vegetable market is open-air. After the torrential rain in the past few days, the dilapidated ground is still wet. When you step on it, it seems to be stuck in mud.Not only that, there are also some discarded vegetable leaves piled up in the corner of the wall, and the snails are slowly climbing up.

Lu Ze'an had never been to a place like this wholesale market, and immediately shrank behind Ji Mu.

"It's so dirty here." Lu Ze'an tiptoed in distaste.

"But the dishes are very fresh." Ji Mu didn't care at all, he picked up the dishes skillfully, as if he had been to these places often before.

Even when bargaining, he can be precise and accurate, accurate and fast.Seeing that Lu Ze'an was stunned for a while, by the time he realized it, both of them had already filled their hands with things.

"The seafood here is really cheap and fresh, and you can cook a seafood pot to eat at night." Ji Mu said happily, weighed the big bag of seafood in his hand, and turned around contentedly, "Brother An, thanks for your help today. Otherwise, I don’t even know how to bring these back.”

Lu Ze'an also didn't expect that he was dressed so trendy and good-looking today, and he came to the vegetable market to pick up things.

He laughed twice, stared at the dishes and said greedily: "Ji Mu, I'm going to have dinner tonight."

"Okay."
