Chapter 1881 - 1884: A Difficult Problem (Part 3)
Achoo!
Zun Zun, who was playing outside, rubbed his nose and looked around. Who was cursing him behind his back?
"So you’d rather suffer yourself than let Zun Zun suffer? Zun Zun is the older brother, and you are the younger one." Gu Shaocheng understood that Sheng Sheng was more like him, and he had higher expectations for Sheng Sheng than for Zun Zun.
Sheng Sheng sighed, "Hasn’t Dad always taught me that... that... sibling love is greater than the sky! What kind of brother is he anyway, we’re the same age."
Achoo!
Zun Zun rubbed his nose again. Who on earth was speaking ill of him behind his back?
Bai Wuqing, sitting nearby, said, "Actually, if you have to pick one, Sheng Sheng might be more suitable. Shaocheng, you might want to consider Sheng Sheng’s thoughts."
He didn’t want to send anyone away, Gu Shaocheng thought to himself!
Even for a month, he couldn’t bear the thought of not having his son by his side!
He was already used to having both kids on his lap every day, teaching them things. Sheng Sheng had better comprehension abilities. Not that his comprehension was better, it’s just that his mind was calmer, whereas Zun Zun, though smart, wasn’t calm, didn’t want to learn, and always irritated him.
"Dad, please agree, won’t you?" Sheng Sheng kept pestering him.
Gu Shaocheng finally relented, the word forced through clenched teeth: "Alright!"
"Thank you, Dad!"
This was not necessarily a good thing, but Sheng Sheng surprisingly showed a relieved smile and gave Gu Shaocheng a big kiss on his left cheek.
"Dad, you and Uncle continue your important conversation, I’ll go find Zun Zun to play."
Sheng Sheng felt a huge weight off his shoulders as he cheerfully sprinted outside. With two months left before he had to leave, he knew he must cherish this time.
He knew Dad was in trouble and didn’t want him to be worried.
Hmm, he must believe in Dad. Perhaps he would only be leaving Dad for a month, no need to worry too much. Dad is the most amazing person in the world, his most admired person. Dad would surely solve everything, don’t worry, don’t worry, don’t worry...

Bang—
The door of the house closed, and Chao Lu, quite at ease, stood there taking off his shoes. He saw a few pairs of men’s shoes on the shoe rack, which should have been prepared for guests, otherwise there wouldn’t be several pairs. His previously darkened gaze returned to normal.
"Who let you into my house?" Gu Qianqian didn’t expect the man who had just said goodbye to her to, in the next moment, already enter her home. She looked at Chao Lu, who intruded unexpectedly, standing a few meters away, watching him with a guarded expression.
They had only had a meal together. Were they very familiar with each other?
This man gave her a strange feeling, a sense of familiarity, yet she was certain she didn’t know him and had never met him before. Where did that familiarity come from?
Gu Qianqian furrowed her brows tightly, scrutinizing Chao Lu.
He seemed to know her little habits intimately, as if at the dining table, he knew her preferences, knew she was allergic to mangoes, knew she didn’t like pork, and knew she preferred window seats. These small habits that she didn’t notice herself, he silently satisfied. It was truly strange. Did this man have some mind-reading ability, or had he done extensive research on her in an attempt to woo her?
Gu Qianqian wasn’t sure!
