Gu Chu complained in secret.
This little aunt of hers had changed so quickly.
Gu Chu still remembered that when she first entered the Zhao family with Gu Manxi, Zhao Manshi was as proud as a swan. More than half a year had passed, and she had turned over a new leaf, firmly becoming Mommy’s number one fan…
Gu Chu lay on her back on the bed, leaning against the soft pillow, and called Gu Manxi via video call.
“Doot –“
“Doot –“
The video call was connected.
Gu Chu called out, “Mommy! …Huh? Auntie? Where’s my Mommy?”
The video call lens lit up. It was not Gu Manxi who had answered the call, but Zhao Manshi, who was wearing a cheongsam. Looking at the background, it seemed that she was still on the set. Zhao Manshi waved at the camera lens and smiled brightly. “Little Chuchu, your mommy is still filming. Tonight is going to be a major scene that will probably end late at night.”
Lu Shanhe’s crew was currently filming in France, and Gu Manxi was busy all day.
Gu Chu pouted. “Oh.”
“Did you have fun in America? Did you miss me? Yo, let me see. Your little face has gotten even rounder, hahaha…” Zhao Manshi sat down on a chair on the set and laughed cheerfully.
Gu Chu: “I had a great time…”
Gu Chu and Zhao Manshi chatted for a while before she was urged to go to bed by her caring aunt. She said that children should go to bed early in order to grow and that they should stay up late, or else Gu Manxi would be very worried if she knew.
She was so talkative that she was even worse than her mother.
Gu Chu silently hung up the phone and rubbed her ears.

The flight back to China had been booked.
On the eve of his departure from the United States, Cheng Qi went to deal with the business of an American company at the last minute. Gu Chu took a nap in her room. Bobo, who was very bored, ran downstairs alone to buy frozen coke.
There was a beverage vending machine downstairs of the hotel.
The button for coke was at the top of the vending machine. Bobo was only fourteen years old. He had not started growing his height yet, and the vending machine in the United States was very tall. Bobo stood on tiptoe, but he still couldn’t reach the button.
Just as he was panicking, a tall figure came over and blocked Bobo’s thin figure.
“Do you need help?” The man asked.
Bobo did not turn his head. “Can you please press the coke button for me?”
“Okay.”
The man helped him casually, and Bobo quickly put in a coin. The frozen coke fell from the vending machine with a clang. Bobo bent down to pick up the coke and turned his head to thank him. “Thank you, Bro… Damn, it’s you!”
Bobo raised his small head and saw a tall American with blond hair and blue eyes. He had a full beard and slightly curly blond hair. He looked to be in his twenties.
He looked quite manly.
When Bobo saw this person, his baby face suddenly collapsed. He asked unhappily, “Why did you, the legendary God, come here? Are You regretting your promise?”
The person was none other than the boss on the hacker leaderboard — Tiger.
Tiger propped himself on the vending machine with one hand and trapped BoBo in a small space. His tone was very arrogant and sloppy. “I’ve looked at your flight records. Little Bobo, are you leaving the United States?”
Bobo gritted his teeth. “Yes, if you have something to say, say it quickly.”
“To put it simply, I really admire your master, Ace of Hearts.” Tiger went straight to the point. “I hope to get their contact information and invite them to join the organization.”
Tiger checked all the internet networks, but he still couldn’t find out the real identity of Ace of Hearts. He could only settle for second-best, so he personally went to Bobo, hoping to get the contact information of Ace of Hearts through Bobo.
However, Bobo’s response was only one sentence:
