Earl, you two are a married couple, does helping out require conditions...
The deputy classmate sighed in his heart...
"Conditions, huh." Gu Tong’s tone was somewhat puzzled. Can you still set conditions while earning impression points? She thought for a moment, "How about this, accompany me to a movie this afternoon, what do you think?"
What kind of condition is this?
"Going out requires reporting to the superior, I’ll consult Gu Wangjue later." Li Yan said formally, yet it was also an indirect agreement to Gu Tong’s condition.
"Alright, I’ll wait for your good news then."
The approving officer is her dad. Gu Tong had a hunch that Li Yan would get the application approved by noon. Thinking so, Gu Tong handed over the lunch box with a smile and said, "Freshly made tofu pudding, along with a sesame cake."
"For me?" Li Yan was a bit surprised.
"For the deputy classmate." Gu Tong didn’t like it, did such a thing need confirmation, she shoved the lunch box into Li Yan’s hands.
The deputy classmate almost knelt...
How come... How do couples bicker and involve the deputy...
The deputy classmate trembled: "Ma’am... truly kind and virtuous... our Earl hasn’t had breakfast yet..."
Li Yan’s cold gaze swept over, using an icy tone as a reminder.
The surrounding air suddenly dropped several degrees...
The deputy classmate felt cold sweat on his backbone, Ma’am... Save me, the Earl, really jealous...
"You really gave it to the deputy..."
Gu Tong rolled her eyes, "Skipping breakfast isn’t a good habit, be careful not to harm your stomach."
The previous coldness and frost instantly ceased, Li Yan, like a pacified lion, gradually returned to normal, holding the still warm lunch box, uncertainty flickered in his eyes, "For me?"
Gu Tong was about to cough up blood, she hadn’t put rat poison in the lunch box, so why the repeated confirmation, "There’s still something on the third floor, I’ll head back first, once you’re done eating, apply earlier. Let’s meet at the entrance of the Royal Hospital at 2 PM."
After saying that, Gu Tong left.
The deputy, who barely survived, breathed a sigh of relief, he looked at Li Yan, who was staring at the lunch box with doubt, for a while, and said, "Ahem, well... the Ma’am is nice too, still concerned about your health..."
Gu Tong, who had no feelings for him on their wedding night, dramatically changed after this meeting.
Li Yan found it bewildering, he paused.
Calculating the timing of Gu Tong’s change coincided with Gu Dad’s arrival at the hospital, was it possible she changed herself in fear of being criticized by Gu Wangjue?
Li Yan’s heart sank once again into the abyss.
The afternoon sun was exceptionally blazing, exceptionally bright and blooming like a flower.
Gu Tong changed her usual lifeless dressing style and wore a snow-white dress.
She stood at the hospital entrance, humming a tune, seemingly in a great mood.
Li Yan also changed into casual clothes, a black outfit, looking serious, "Where to?"
The academy is far from the city, requiring an hour’s drive one way.
Li Yan walked towards the jeep not far away. This car was temporarily provided by Gu Dad; borrowing a car for a son-in-law’s date, Gu Dad’s move was unprecedented and unique.
Gu Tong got in the car, her smile only growing wider,
This time alone was earned with conditions exchanged, yet it was also their first date across two lifetimes.
She was very much looking forward to it.
