Sweet Bitter Orange

The food suits Xuan Jiu's taste very well, so he concentrated on eating well, and the two of them finished eating in a short time.Xuan Jiu looked at Gu Xingzhou with eyes full of expectation, and his voice was soft and waxy.

"What is it exactly?"

"Hmm~ Xuanxuan likes it."

In this way, Xuan Jiu still has no idea. If he wants to say that he likes it, the only thing he likes is making handmade clay figures and the like. Xuan Jiu has always liked the feeling of being immersed in his own world and creating the world with his hands, but the scope It's too big, I suddenly thought of something.

"Is it handmade?"

"No."

"Ah~ I can't guess."

Gu Xingzhou smiled. He just wanted to be a fool on purpose. Seeing that the little prince was looking forward to the gift so much, he felt a little sour in his heart. Although he prepared it himself, his eyes were full of expectation and bright. , I just wanted to see more things in his eyes, so I couldn't help teasing the child again, but it was almost done, and the little face was about to wrinkle again before it was revealed.

"In that room, how about I hug Xuanxuan and go over to see it?"

As soon as he heard that he was about to see the gift, Xuan Jiu's heart also became excited, his heart was full of anticipation, a little apprehensive, he directly opened his hands, waiting for Gu Xingzhou to come and hug him.

"Okay, let's go there quickly."

"Um"

Gu Xingzhou hugged him in his arms, and the two of them were close to each other. He had adapted well to the princess holding Xuan Jiu, but Gu Xingzhou couldn't help but think that it would be great if he could always take the initiative like this.Although he didn't say it, but for Gu Xingzhou, he still hopes that Xuan Jiu can stick to him more, he enjoys the feeling of being relied on by children.

When he arrived at the door, Xuan Jiu felt his heart beat faster and his breathing quickened. Seeing that Gu Xingzhou didn't go any further, he turned to look at him.

"Xuanxuan, please open this door yourself."

"it is good"

Regarding this apartment, Xuan Jiu actually didn't know the specifics of it, nor did he go through it carefully, and he had no impression of the room in front of him at all. Trembling slightly, he opened the door and slowly pushed the door open.

Through the lights of the restaurant, I can see several large cabinets, a large desk, a floor-to-ceiling window and a balcony at a glance. Although it is dark, it is still possible to pass through. The gorgeous lights outside and the lights inside the house It can be seen that the decoration of this house is exquisite.

Just after scanning around, he heard the sound of a switch, and Gu Xingzhou turned on the lights in the house. The walls are clean off-white, several large transparent cabinets fill the entire room, and there is also a large workbench. , the top is also full of cabinets, and the decoration is more refined when you look closely. The patterns of the cabinets are very beautiful, and the roof also has very delicate borders.

But Xuan Jiu still didn't find where the gift was after seeing this, because there was nothing in this room and it looked empty.

"Is Gu Xingzhou's gift here?"

Gu Xingzhou didn't answer, but put Xuan Jiu on the chair in the room. The chair was made of leather and soft, and it was very comfortable to sit on. He turned the chair to face the table and said:

"The gift is here, Xuanxuan opened these drawers to have a look."

"it is good"

The tables and chairs are all custom-made for Xuan Jiu, so the drawers on the table can be easily opened by stretching out your hands.After pulling it open, I saw all kinds of tools, neatly categorized and placed, all of which were needed for manual work, and picked up a pair of lace scissors among them with a trembling hand, Xuan Jiuzhi felt that his mind was blank , he was so happy, he hadn't done handwork for a long time, holding unfamiliar but familiar tools, he felt a little complicated at the moment, seeing such a complete set of tools, even in his previous life, Xuan Jiu was not willing to buy them all, this For the first time, I saw all of them.

I was so happy that I was speechless. Xuan Jiu hadn’t received a gift for many years. I didn’t expect to receive such a gift. I opened the second drawer and it was full of materials. The other drawers were also filled with materials. They are all things that are needed for handicrafts. I was moved and happy, and my heart was full of mixed feelings for a while, and I didn't notice the tears streaming down.

Putting down the tools in his hand, he turned around and hugged Gu Xingzhou's waist, hugged him tightly, and cried, just a soft cry.

This made Gu Xingzhou very anxious. He heard that the child liked these before, so he checked the information, bought all the tools, and specially decorated the room, and put a transparent cabinet just for Xuan Jiu to display later. For the work, he wanted Xuan Jiu to be happy, but he didn't expect him to cry.

He hugged Xuan Jiu, smoothed Xuan Jiu's hair, and asked:

"Does Xuanxuan like this gift?"

"I like it, I like it so much, it's just so, so happy, Gu Xingzhou, no one has prepared such a thoughtful gift for me for a long time, I haven't received it for a long time since my parents left, thank you Gu Xingzhou, I'm so afraid that I won't be able to survive here, I've always been afraid, but luckily I met you."

When Gu Xingzhou heard that Xuan Jiu liked it, his hanging heart relaxed, as long as he liked it, it turned out that he was like this because he liked it.But the more I listened, the more I felt something was wrong. What does it mean after Mom and Dad left?Aren't the dealer's parents always fine?Although they don't care about Xuan Jiu, the children don't just say that, and what does it mean to be afraid that they won't survive?Suppressing the doubts in his heart, he squeezed the child's warm jade-like earlobe and said:

"It's good if you like it. I prepared this room specially for Xuanxuan. You don't like making clay figures. All future works can be placed in the large cabinet in the room and displayed."

Xuan Jiu regretted it as soon as he finished speaking. He was speechless for a while. At that time, he was thinking too much. He had grievances. He came to this world inexplicably. Facing all the unknowns, he lost everything he had before and was happy again. , because here, he met Gu Xingzhou, his emotions collapsed, and he wanted to vent uncontrollably.

He hugged Gu Xingzhou and said everything, but he regretted it after he finished speaking, and he was very afraid that Gu Xingzhou would find out something. After all, such a thing as wearing a book was too strange, and he didn't want anything to happen again.He was relieved to hear that Gu Xingzhou didn't ask. The original panic was gradually replaced by happiness. It turned out that this room was prepared for him.

Gu Xingzhou noticed that Xuan Jiu was shaking all the time, and knew that he was afraid, and the pheromones were constantly leaking, and the room was filled with the sweet scent of milk, so why would he continue to ask, no matter how many questions and doubts there were, Gu Xingzhou would not It will make Xuan Jiu uncomfortable. Since the little prince is afraid, he will not ask. Everyone has secrets, and so does he, who hides unbelievable secrets.

"This room is all mine."

Hearing Xuan Jiu's voice, Gu Xingzhou knew that he was still very scared. Although the child tried his best to hide it, his voice was still trembling and hoarse.

I also slowly released some pheromones to appease Xuan Jiu. The two have been walking very close recently, and Gu Xingzhou has gradually mastered how to control pheromones to adjust Xuan Jiu's emotions. Their pheromones match very well. , and he mastered it very quickly.Using pheromones to guide Xuan Jiu's pheromones can slowly relax people, and said in a more gentle tone:

"Well, it's all Xuanxuan, and I'll add anything I feel is missing in the future. This is a workshop specially prepared for the baby."

"Thank you, I really like it."

"You're welcome, as long as Xuanxuan likes it, I want to do more for Xuanxuan, we are already together~"

"Yeah, it's nice that we're already together."

Feeling the familiar atmosphere, Xuan Jiu also slowly relaxed. They will not be separated, even if he came through a book, they will not be separated. Gu Xingzhou likes him, not the original owner. After thinking about it, Xuan Jiu He also calmed down, and the joy in his heart floated up. He really likes Gu Xingzhou. He obviously only said it once, and it was a month ago. He didn't expect him to remember it, and his heart was warm.

"It's my luck to be with Xuanxuan, and I met you on that day."

"Me too, I am so lucky and happy to meet you."

Xuan Jiu raised his head, and the two looked at each other with love in their eyes.

"Brother, did you buy all these materials yourself?"

Hearing Xuan Jiu call his brother, his voice was sweet and waxy, Gu Xingzhou's breathing was wrong, his heart beat faster and faster, and his heart was excited. He always wanted the child to call him that, but he didn't expect it to come true today, so he hugged him tightly Why is he so cute? I love him more and more.

Many people call him brother, Chen Boyu, Zhang Lei, or Gu Lin, but when Xuan Jiu calls him that, I feel very excited and happy in my heart, full of happiness, and kind of like Xuan Jiu. It felt like they were getting closer.

"Of course I bought it myself. I checked a lot of information to see what materials and tools I needed, and finally bought them all.

Baby just called me brother, can you say it again? "

As soon as Xuan Jiu heard Gu Xingzhou's words, she lowered her head and felt embarrassed after calling out once.Xuan Jiu was thinking that Gu Xingzhou was so kind to him, and wanted to treat him better, thinking that Gu Xingzhou had everything he needed, and he couldn’t think of what to give, so he remembered that Gu Xingzhou had always wanted him to be called brother, hold back The shyness in my heart was still spoken out, and naturally I was embarrassed to say it a second time.

"Don't be shy baby, I like baby calling me that, can you say it again?"

Gu Xingzhou's tone was gentle and coaxing, and he slowly released pheromones.

Xuan Jiu was tickled by Gu Xingzhou's pheromones. He felt a little hot. The air he exhaled was so hot. He was at a loss for a while. He was used to the smell of Gu Xingzhou. Xuan Jiu, who is not an aborigine, was completely unconscious. He realized that this was Gu Xingzhou's pheromone teasing him.

"Hey, can you say it again?"

The voice was deep and magnetic, and he said slowly close to Xuan Jiu's ear. The warm breath stayed in Xuan Jiu's ear, which disturbed Xuan Jiu's heart, and then he said it.

"Brother, brother."

"Well, Xuanxuan will call me like that from now on, okay? Don't call me Gu Xingzhou."

Xuan Jiu's face turned even redder, and it was all because Gu Xingzhou was too provocative, why did he say it out loud, and he definitely couldn't keep calling it that way.

"But, it's too shameful, no."

"That's Brother Xingzhou, okay?"

"Okay, sailing."

Gu Xingzhou rubbed Xuan Jiu's head again, it seems that he still has to take his time and strive for more benefits for himself.

-----

Zhuang Cheng prepared the materials, looked out of the window only to find that it was getting dark, and he returned much later than usual, thinking of Gu Xingzhou's previous explanation, he smiled.

"Since you want to help, this point is just right."

After taking the briefcase, I drove back to the dealer.

Zhuang Hao sat on the sofa with an ugly expression and was a little angry. It was time for dinner, and Xuan Jiu and Zhuang Cheng didn't go home.

"What's the matter with this Xuan Jiu, why don't we wait for him if he doesn't go home at that time?"

Xuan Mu heard the impatience in Zhuang Hao's words, and felt a little angry, didn't Zhuang Cheng also go home?But he only talked about Xuan Jiu, Zhuang Hao really became more and more eccentric, and only cared about his eldest son in his heart.But he could only suppress the grievance in his heart, and followed Zhuang Hao's words:

"Yeah, this Xuan Jiu has become more and more ignorant recently. I will teach him a lesson when he comes back. It's not too early now, otherwise we will eat first, and Yingcai will be hungry too.

Why don't you call Zhuang Cheng first and ask when he will be back? "

"Wait a little longer, when Zhuang Cheng comes back together, he should be on his way."

"it is good"

Zhuang Hao never thought of calling Zhuang Cheng. He is a proud person. When Zhuang Cheng came back late, he didn't call him first to explain the reason. Like him, he and Zhuang Cheng are not close, and Zhuang Hao can't shame himself into doing this.

Xuan Mu tightly clasped the sofa where Zhuang Hao couldn't see, and stared at his hand firmly, until the sofa was about to be smashed before letting go, looking at the deformed sofa, Xuan Mu finally The hatred in my heart eased a little.Because of Zhuang Cheng, Xuan Mu thought that Zhuang Cheng's position in the company would become more and more stable, but she had no choice but to do anything, Zhuang Yingcai was too young to compete with Zhuang Cheng, and Xuan Jiu was a useless omega, so she could only helplessly Seeing that Zhuang Cheng is getting better and better in the company, but there is no way to stop it.

Hearing the sound of footsteps, Xuan Mu's ferocious face suddenly became gentle, with a smile on his face.

Zhuang Hao also saw that Zhuang Cheng was back, and his brows that were still frowning relaxed, and asked in a kind tone:

"Why is Xiaocheng coming back late today?"

Zhuang Cheng didn't say anything, just glanced at Xuan Mu, his actions were not considered secretive, and Zhuang Hao also noticed.

"The company is very busy."

"Then let's go to the study and say, Mumu, you go call Yingcai first, and get ready for dinner."

Xuan Mu naturally noticed that Zhuang Cheng wanted to avoid talking to her, and the anger that had been suppressed with great difficulty came up again, but with a smile on his face, he said in a gentle tone:

"Okay, let's talk first, I'll call Yingcai."

"Okay, Xiaocheng, let's go up."

"it is good"

Seeing the backs of the two leaving, Xuan Mu finally couldn't bear it anymore, and slammed the sofa hard, she could only sulk like this.

In the study, Zhuang Cheng went on to say:

"The company has been very busy recently. I have been following up the projects in the latest quarter personally. If it goes well, it will create the highest profit in the group's history in the second half of the year."

"It really didn't disappoint me. It is correct to entrust you with the full power of the development of the new field. If this new business is done well, I can rest assured that I will entrust you with the Zhuang's traditional business."

"Thank you for your father's compliment. I'm also very interested in the new retail business, and it went very smoothly. If it succeeds, it will open up a new path for Zhuang's and allow the company to transform successfully."

"That's good, I believe you."

"This is the latest financial statement. I asked the finance to sort it out. Father, can you take a look?"

"it is good"

Zhuang Cheng looked at Zhuang Hao, flipped through the report with a smile on his face, and then continued:

"I have something to tell my father. Xuan Jiu was injured during a long-distance run yesterday. He was sent to the hospital by the teacher. The injury was not serious, but the teacher said that he was an omega and needed to be observed in the hospital for two days. Xuan Jiu contacted him. Me, I went to see him today, and I can't go home tonight."

Hearing this news, Zhuang Hao just paused for a moment while turning the page, and then he finished reading the rest of the report before continuing:

"I've read the report, you've done a good job.

Xuan Jiu, did the teacher say anything? "

"It was an accident. It happened during exercise. I've seen it. It's not too serious. The left leg is fractured, and a plaster cast is on it. It's estimated that it will be removed next week. I've taken care of everything else."

"Xiaocheng, you have a very good relationship with Xuan Jiu recently, and you take good care of him."

"After all, it's my brother. He asked me for help. I won't refuse."

"I see, you can do whatever you want with Xuan Jiu. I admit that I haven't paid much attention to him. Since you young people play better, it doesn't matter if you take care of him in the future."

"I see, I will take care of it in the future."

Zhuang Hao didn't care much about Xuan Jiu in his heart. This son has no sense of existence and is not outstanding, and he has been letting him grow up.So this time he was injured and did not contact Zhuang Hao and the others, and Zhuang Hao didn't care. What he cared about was that Xuan Jiu and Zhuang Cheng had a good relationship, which made Zhuang Hao think highly of him.

This can be regarded as Zhuang Cheng accepted Xuan Jiu, and naturally he forgave his mistake of derailment, otherwise Zhuang Cheng would not talk to Xuan Jiu with his arrogance.This is what Zhuang Hao cares about, and Zhuang Cheng is willing to forgive him.Then Zhuang Cheng is willing to treat Xuan Jiu better, so naturally he won't stop it.

Zhuang Cheng looked at Zhuang Hao's happy face and hid the hatred in his eyes. He could guess what Zhuang Hao was thinking, either he thought he was kind to Xuan Jiu, an illegitimate son, or he forgave the mistakes he made in cheating .But he won't forgive, but he won't say it out, so Zhuang Hao misunderstood him so much, he promised Gu Xingzhou to take care of Xuan Jiu, and would not do anything against Xuan Jiu.

The two people in the study are clearly father and son, but they still look close to each other, but they are far apart.

"You are done with your work, the meal has just been served, let's start the meal now."

"Okay, Mu Muxuanjiu got hurt and won't be coming back tonight."

"The child is injured. Why doesn't he contact me? He's getting more and more ignorant. How did you know, Lao Zhuang?"

"He has contacted Xiaocheng, and Xiaocheng has visited him, so you don't have to worry about it."

This sentence made Xuan Mu a little embarrassed. When her son was injured, she didn't ask her mother to go, but asked her half-brother to go.I was a little angry, but I didn't take it to heart. If I didn't go home, I wouldn't go home. Zhuang Hao didn't care anymore. What did she care about? She underestimated Xuan Jiu. She has a good relationship with Zhuang Cheng, so it's hard to say anything about him in the future.

"Okay, then thank you Xiaocheng."

"It's easy, Auntie doesn't care."
