Ever since Gu Zhihan registered his company, he became very, very busy.
It was manageable during freshman and sophomore years, since there were many courses at school.
But by senior year, when the courses started to dwindle, he hardly ever came to school and was often flying off to various places to discuss collaborations and attract investments.
Yes, you heard it right, it’s already been four years!
When Mengmeng got home from school, she sighed at the sight of the empty room.
It seemed like she hadn’t seen him for a week.
Just as she was about to order some takeout to fill her stomach, the door was pushed open.
Mengmeng instinctively turned her head and saw the travel-worn man walking in with a suitcase.
He was tall and broad-shouldered, clad in a long overcoat with a white shirt and black trousers underneath, handsome and upright, now striding into the room.
"Gu Zhihan!" At the sight of him, Luo Mengmeng’s eyes instantly lit up, and she excitedly threw herself at him, "How did you come back?"
Gu Zhihan didn’t answer her question but steadied her in his arms, holding her close with an indulgent smile, "You’re much lighter than before. It seems that in my absence, someone must have missed me so much that they couldn’t eat or sleep properly, leading to weight loss!"
Mengmeng, seeing that he had guessed correctly, suddenly widened her eyes, "You couldn’t have installed surveillance around me, could you?"
Otherwise, how could he guess so accurately!
"Do I need to install surveillance? I’ve known how much you like me since we were young." Gu Zhihan chuckled and pinched her cheek before carrying her towards the bedroom.
"Mengmeng, I missed you too."
They hadn’t seen each other for many days, and heaven knows, he thought of her to the point of madness every day.
"Me too." Luo Mengmeng extended her fair and delicate arms, her face flushed red, wrapping them around his neck, her clear pupils gazing at the tall and handsome man before her.
Gu Zhihan also happened to look down at the clean and lovely girl in his arms.
As their eyes met, Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but lower his head to kiss the girl’s sweet lips.
Kissing her all the while, he walked further into the room.
After a long while, Gu Zhihan tenderly held the exhausted Mengmeng in his arms, his dark eyes filled with deep affection, "Mengmeng, I love you."
As he spoke, his well-defined hand played with her soft, satin-like hair.
"I don’t love you!" Mengmeng hummed softly.
He always did this, tormenting her as soon as he returned, hmpf.
"You don’t love me?" Gu Zhihan couldn’t help but pinch her little chin, raising an eyebrow.
"That’s right, I don’t love you!" Mengmeng continued to play tough.
After all, he had just been so ’fierce’...
Upon hearing these words, Gu Zhihan immediately snorted, "Girls who lie are not good girls and must be punished."
As for what punishment.
That was obvious without guessing.
But Mengmeng was already overwhelmed and quickly corrected herself, "No, no, no, isn’t it enough that I admitted I was wrong? Of course, I love you!"
"That’s more like it." Gu Zhihan nodded contentedly and then touched her stomach, "Are you hungry? Shall I order some takeout?"
"Hungry!" Mengmeng made a pitiful face.
"Then I’ll get some food." Gu Zhihan said as he picked up his phone to start ordering.
The man ordered all the dishes the girl loved.
When the takeout arrived, Mengmeng turned on the TV while eating.
As soon as the TV came on, they saw a news report covering a landslide event.
