Chapter 473: Chapter 474: The Captain Is Truly A Captain
Ye Xingbei was at a loss for words: “What did I say? Senior Gu listens to everything?”
Gu Junzhu: “Did you forget? My father didn’t believe it when I said Sheng Ruolan had inappropriate thoughts about me, but when you said it, he believed. He really takes a liking to you, doesn’t he?”
Ye Xingbei chuckled, “So, Fifth Lord of Gu, how do you get by? Your own father doesn’t even believe what you say, your credibility, oh, it’s pitiful!”
Ye Xingbei shook her head with a face full of contempt.
“Naughty!” Gu Junzhu bit her ear.
“Uh…” A voice sounded from behind them.
Ye Xingbei quickly pushed Gu Junzhu away, fluffed her hair by her ear, pretending to be nonchalant and looked over.
As Qiao Zui stepped into the kitchen and uttered two words, he noticed that Gu Junzhu was nipping at Ye Xingbei’s ear. He instantly shut his mouth and was about to leave when Ye Xingbei and Gu Junzhu had already turned around to look at him.
Qiao Zui looked puzzled: “Eh? Where did uncle and aunt go so early in the morning? The kitchen’s empty. I’ll go look for them!”
What a waste that he’s not signed to Star Palace.
Such a talented actor!
“Brother Xiaoyue, look!” Behind Qiao Zui, Xiao Shumiao was holding Lingyue’s hand with a sympathetic look on her face: “Cousin is so pitiable, not only is his brain not good, but his eyes are bad as well. Mom and dad are clearly in the kitchen, yet he can’t see them!”
He felt quite pitiful too!
Why does he always end up interrupting when uncle and aunt are in an intimate moment?
He’s just like the saying, not punishing the diligent, not punishing the lazy, only punishing those without vision.
Lingyue held Xiao Shumiao’s hand, his face calm: “Don’t worry, Shu, don’t be sad. It’s not that cousin can’t see well, he’s just too timid to admit that he has seen something.”
“…!” Qiao Zui gritted his teeth.
He had been around these two little kids for less than twelve hours and already had so many labels placed upon him… bad brain, dirty mind, and now, a coward!
How is he expected to live?
Xiao Shumiao didn’t comprehend his frustration. She looked up at Lingyue with a puzzled expression and asked, “Why? Why would cousin pretend not to see mom and dad?”
Lingyue said: “Because he saw something he shouldn’t have, and is afraid that his master would punish him.”
“Eh?” Xiao Shumiao peeked into the kitchen and asked out of curiosity: “What did he see that he shouldn’t have?”
“…!” Ye Xingbei quickly left, “Well… let’s eat! We can talk about it after the meal.”
Let’s turn the page, forget this incident, forget it, forget it!
The foodie Xiao Shumiao instantly forgot to pursue the matter, joyfully held Lingyue’s hand and ran to sit by the dining table, “Let’s eat, let’s eat good food!”
Ye Xingbei warmly invited Fang Yao and Qiao Zui to sit down: “Captain Fang, Ah Zui, I don’t know what you like to eat, so I just prepared some dishes. Let me know if you prefer something else, so I can prepare accordingly next time.”
“Auntie, you’re too kind.” Fang Yao said, “You can call me Ah Yao.”
Ye Xingbei felt awkward: “Please don’t be too formal.”
And don’t call me auntie!
However, she did not dare say the last sentence in front of Gu Junzhu.
Her intuition told her that if she did, it would not end well.
Fang Yao nodded, “All right, I understand, auntie.”
Qiao Zui, sitting next to him, looked at him admirably.
No doubt, the captain has thick skin!
