Forgive me for a long time

When Gu Ao came back tonight, Min Shaoqi had a lot more time to prepare dinner. Originally, he only wanted to fry two dishes, but now he can make some fried dishes. Anyway, there is enough time for marinating.

In fact, every household had to prepare a lot of things before, but for people of Min Shaoqi's age, they can't remember those old things. Many things are bought ready-made, and they don't waste time and effort at home. In the spare time, you can cook something you like, not what you must have in the traditional New Year's Eve dinner-such as various Western-style snacks, cakes and the like.

After finishing the last dish of fish head tofu, Gu Ao just came back.But Gu Ao was not the only one who came back, there was also a 24-year-old young woman.

As soon as the woman entered the door, she looked at Gu Ao's house and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that the place you live in is quite simple."

This is simplicity?Min Shaoqi frowned slightly, is it normal to live in a castle?The housing prices here can definitely be ranked among the top five in the city. To say it is simple, it would be too small to underestimate this place.

"Sit down." Gu Ao said, obviously not intending to entertain him warmly.

The woman walked into the living room, her eyes fell on Min Shaoqi.

He looked at Min Shaoqi with the end of his eyes, and asked Gu Ao, "Who is this?"

"Min Shaoqi." Gu Ao said, and then said to Min Shaoqi: "This is Lin Pei."

Lin Pei looked at Min Shaoqi again, and asked, "Friend? I don't think so, do I?"

Lin Pei's tone of voice made Min Shaoqi feel very uncomfortable, with a feeling of superiority.But Lin Pei is indeed very beautiful, tall and tall, with a good figure, wearing a light brown wool skirt, a white sweater on the upper body, and a short brown fur outside, looking very fashionable.And that kind of proud temperament seems to be showing her wealthy family background, but it's hard to like such a woman who can only be proud but lacks elegance.

Gu Ao didn't answer her, just said: "I'm going to change clothes."

Lin Pei nodded, and seemed to have no intention of delving into it.

Gu Ao turned to Min Shaoqi and said, "Is the meal ready?"

"Okay." Min Shaoqi said hurriedly.

"Well, let's go to the table." Gu Ao said, and entered the room.

In fact, Min Shaoqi's mind was a little messed up, he didn't know what this Lin Pei was from.But obviously now is not the time to ask, let's wait for Lin Pei to leave.

Min Shaoqi went to the kitchen to serve dinner. Lin Pei took off his coat and followed him in, but he didn't seem to want to help at all. He just leaned against the door and looked at Min Shaoqi.

Min Shaoqi's clothes are very ordinary, not limited editions, nor popular styles. They look good, but their hairstyle is also very ordinary, it doesn't look like they were specially designed by a stylist.Looking at him serving food and vegetables with such ease, it seems that he has done it countless times.It can be seen that he is not a young master from a rich family, and logically speaking, he should not have any intersection with Gu Ao.

Lin Pei rolled his eyes with false eyelashes on, and then said, "Are you Third Young Master's servant?"

Min Shaoqi nodded, anyway, this is his identity, and there is nothing difficult to admit.

"You live here?" Lin Pei asked.

"En." Min Shaoqi put the dishes on the cooking table, and it was convenient to take them out one by one after a while.

Lin Pei smiled and said, "You don't know, do you? I'm actually Gu Ao's fiancee."

Min Shaoqi shook his hands and almost splashed the fish head tofu on Lin Pei.

Seeing Min Shaoqi's surprised face, Lin Pei seemed very satisfied, and continued to smile: "Since the Gu family arranged for you to serve Gu Ao, I think you and Gu Ao must get along well. It's okay to tell you in advance."

Min Shaoqi was even more confused. He didn't know whether he should believe Lin Pei's words, but he had never heard of Gu Ao's fiancée before, and he rationally refused to agree with such a person.But at the same time, his rationality would not let him rush into Gu Ao's room to ask him what's going on. First, he is not qualified to do so, and second, no matter what the result is, he will be very embarrassed.

"Oh..." Min Shaoqi answered absent-mindedly.

Lin Pei seemed very dissatisfied with his attitude, and asked, "Why? Don't you believe me?"

Min Shaoqi wanted to nod, but in order to avoid unnecessary conflict, he still said, "No."

Lin Pei smiled and said, "You also know Gu Ao's identity, and this matter is kept secret for the time being. I see that you are very close to me, so I will tell you in advance, when I marry Gu Ao, you You can go back home. I still prefer to live in a two-person world."

review home?Min Shaoqi blinked his eyes lightly. If that was the case, he would not be able to look back home. After all, he is not the servant of the Gu family, but only Gu Ao's servant.

So, when the time comes, where should he go?

A thought flashed through Min Shaoqi's mind, too fast for him to grasp, but it was very clear...

Min Shaoqi hurriedly forced himself to come back to his senses, took out the pickled side dishes from the refrigerator and put them on a plate, diverting his attention.

At this time, Gu Ao also came out of the room.Lin Pei walked over to talk to Gu Ao.

Min Shaoqi observed Gu Ao's reaction for a while.To be honest, Gu Ao didn't have much enthusiasm for Lin Pei, but it wasn't the cold kind either.He felt that this was not Gu Ao's state of being in love, so Gu Ao might not have much affection for Lin Pei.But there is another thing in this world called marriage. With Gu Ao's background, marriage can be said to be very normal.This is out of his control, as long as Gu Ao agrees, then he can only watch.

Min Shaoqi ate very silently throughout the meal.Lin Pei pulled Gu Ao to talk together, but Min Shaoqi couldn't get in the way and didn't want to talk.

Lin Pei's topics basically revolved around fashion and banquets, and they were not nutritious. Gu Ao also responded without saying a word, but he didn't show any impatience.Of course, there are also comments on the dinner, what kind of fried food is not healthy, the soup is too weak, etc... It sounds like a gourmet who advocates healthy eating.

Min Shaoqi couldn't help thinking, if Gu Ao and Lin Pei got married, would life be like this now?Lin Pei kept looking for topics to talk about non-stop, and Gu Ao just responded casually... It seems to be good.

After the meal, Lin Pei sat on the sofa and said to Min Shaoqi who had just finished washing the dishes, "Make me a cup of coffee." His tone was not polite, as if Min Shaoqi should help her with these.

"Okay." Min Shaoqi went back to the kitchen and started making coffee silently.He is Gu Ao's servant, so it is reasonable to help Gu Ao's guests.

"Do you have dessert?" Lin Pei asked in the living room.

"I have puffs, can I?" Min Shaoqi dutifully worked as his servant.

"Okay, bring me some." Lin Pei said.

Min Shaoqi took five or six small puffs and put them on a plate, ready to serve them out together in a while, and sprinkled some more powdered sugar on top.Because Gu Ao doesn't like too sweet, so the amount of sugar added to his whipped cream is less than the standard amount of sugar. This kind of sweetness is just right for him and Gu Ao.But Lin Pei might not like it, so he could only sprinkle more powdered sugar to make up for the sugar that was halved before.

Gu Ao went into the kitchen to pour water, usually he would not ask Min Shaoqi to do such a thing.Glancing at the coffee being brewed, Gu Ao said to him: "Don't drink coffee at night, go to bed early."

"Okay." Min Shaoqi nodded obediently, and then asked, "Do you eat puffs?"

Gu Ao thought for a while, nodded and said, "Eat two, where is the black tea?" Since he wants to eat dessert, black tea is more suitable for him than white water.

Min Shaoqi opened the upper cabinet and took out the black tea that Gu Ao had brought back.

As soon as Gu Ao opened the box and prepared to make tea by himself, he saw Lin Pei walking over and said with a smile, "Let Xiao Min take care of such small things."

Gu Ao looked at Min Shaoqi.

There was no unnecessary expression on Min Shaoqi's face, he just took the black tea and said, "Let me make a drink. Do you want some milk?"

Gu Ao hesitated for a second, and said, "No need."

Min Shaoqi nodded, and didn't ask any more questions.

Lin Pei took Gu Ao back to the living room, and showed Gu Ao the photos of several luxury bags she had been looking forward to, and asked him to help him as a reference.In fact, to put it bluntly, I wanted Gu Ao to buy it for her.

Gu Ao did not disappoint her either. He picked out two models from the photos that Lin Pei showed him, and sent them to Meng Zhang, who asked him to call the store to make an appointment.

Min Shaoqi sent out coffee, black tea and puffs together.Lin Pei talked about the interesting things she had encountered abroad recently, but obviously she only told Gu Ao alone, and didn't want Min Shaoqi to participate.

Min Shaoqi also tactfully poured himself a glass of water, and went back to his room.

He didn't know if Lin Pei wanted to stay overnight, and he didn't ask too many questions.But he could see that Lin Pei obviously didn't like him very much.Of course, he didn't like Lin Pei either.Now Lin Pei is accompanied by Gu Ao, and he is accompanied by the caramel popcorn that Gu Ao bought him.

He had already eaten the tube before, and when he went out to buy new year's goods, Gu Ao bought a few more tubes for him and put them in his room, enough for him to eat for the next year.

Lin Pei didn't stay overnight. A car came to pick her up after nine o'clock, so she left first.Min Shaoqi didn't go out to see her off, after all, he was not the master, and he didn't want to see her off at all.

After Lin Pei left, Gu Ao knocked on the door of Min Shaoqi's room, then opened the door and walked in.

Min Shaoqi was eating caramel popcorn in his arms, seeing him coming in, he quickly put the lid on the popcorn tube and put it aside - Gu Ao forbade him to eat too much every day.

Gu Ao looked at the two-thirds of the popcorn that had been eaten, and the lid was still on the table, obviously it had just been opened.But he didn't talk about him, just said: "From now on, if Lin Pei comes over when I'm not at home, there's no need to open the door for her."

"Okay." Min Shaoqi nodded.I didn't know why, but I didn't ask.After all, he didn't want to be alone with Lin Pei either, which was just right.

Gu Ao looked at him again, reached out and took away the remaining half-tube of popcorn, and said, "Brush your teeth well before going to bed, and if you eat so much, I won't buy it for you next time."

"Hmm..." Min Shaoqi pursed his lips, looking very obedient.

Gu Ao didn't say anything else, and went to his study with popcorn.

Lin Pei's arrival did make Min Shaoqi unhappy, but Gu Ao's words still made him feel a little warm. Maybe tonight, he wouldn't have such a hard time sleeping...

When Min Shaoqi was cleaning the study the next day, he saw that the bucket of popcorn was empty, apparently eaten by Gu Ao.The caramel popcorn in this store is not that sweet, but has a strong caramel flavor. If it's too sweet, Gu Ao probably won't be able to eat it.

But next time he still has to be careful, don't eat so much at once, otherwise Gu Ao will definitely not buy it for him again.
