Bao Gucheng’s stern face momentarily softened.
He gently stroked the phone screen, "She’s asleep."
The Blueblood watch he gave her had a pedometer function, sharing real-time data.
He had just seen that she hadn’t moved for quite a while, estimating she had already gone to bed.
And the reason the phone was vibrating at the moment... maybe she was in a good mood before sleeping, thinking of sending him a "goodnight"?
With such anticipation, Bao Gucheng slid open the screen.
When he saw the name of the person who sent the message, the faint smile on his face faded, quickly returning to his usual sternness.
"Mr. Bo? Miss Xi said something, huh? Is she sending you a bedtime story, hahaha..."
Although Wei Yang was single, he often heard his buddies in the group talking about romantic stuff, saying couples often send each other embarrassing pictures before bed, and sometimes they engage in "textual love" over the phone. He had heard bits and pieces and didn’t really understand, so he took this opportunity to tease his own master.
The teasing didn’t work, and instead, Bao Gucheng shot him a glare: "Very idle? Found the hacker? Checked the information? If you can’t figure out the presidential residence’s directive, prepare yourself for the seventh coffin to guard the grave in front of Si She’s tomb!"
Wei Yang pulled a long face: "Master, I’ll go work now!"
Before leaving, he finally caught a glimpse of the sender’s name from the corner of his eye — "Gu Shiyin."
Goodness, Miss Gu, you really did me in. What exactly did you send to the master to make him so unhappy?
Bao Gucheng didn’t linger on the phone, casually replying with two words before shutting it off.
Xi Zuzi’s sweet and clear voice lingered in his ear —
"Remember not to have dinner with other women."
Uncontrollably, a smile tugged at the corners of his lips once more.
Rest assured, within three meters of me, not even a female mosquito will get close!
The [Pioneers of Heaven and Earth] WeChat group.
Chen Long: Brothers, how’s Mr. Bo doing back in the capital? Did Si She and the others receive their honors yet?
Shen Hou: Of course, in Mr. Bo’s territory, who’s bold enough to chatter? Those old guys were so scared they couldn’t agree fast enough! But Mr. Bo has to stay at the presidential residence these days to prevent any tricks before the ceremony!
Chen Long: That’s a relief for me. I’m still leading people to fill in the grave pits and restore the mountain’s original state, won’t be able to return for some time. Speaking of which, didn’t you guys plan any celebration for Mr. Bo’s great victory?
Shen Hou: Yes, there is. Didn’t Yin Hu say Miss Gu’s hosting a dinner at the Tianxian Building? Inviting a bunch of bigwigs from politics and business.
Wei Yang suddenly chimed in: Hehe.
No one paid him any mind, all focused on Gu Shiyin’s dinner: Wow, Miss Gu is really generous. Tianxian Building is so expensive and classy; she’s so thoughtful to give the master face.
Yin Hu: Hold on, Miss Gu said she already messaged the master, just waiting for him to set the time so she can inform us.
Yin Hu finally noticed him: Wei Yang, are you having a fit? What’s with the hehe?
Wei Yang: Hehe, now I finally know why I got into trouble. Ancestor said not to have dinner with other women, but someone’s idle enough to bother the master. Hehe, he definitely won’t go!
Everyone: Come off it. Miss Gu has a lot of clout, okay? Her dad was the master’s teacher, so she’s kind of like the master’s junior. The master will give her some face and attend, don’t you think? Want to bet? The loser mimics a frog!
