Chapter 38.2

Gu Yanshu had a hurdle that he couldn’t cross in his mind, but as long as he could face it, Shen Jue believed that he could make him like him without worry.

Gu Yanshu looked at Shen Jue’s smile and his heart skipped a beat. He felt that Shen Jue might be willing to talk to him about the matters that he previously didn’t tell him about. 

So, he pursed his lips and dug his fingertips into the carpet, hiding his anticipation. “Then, is there anything you want to tell me?”

Why did he suddenly ask this question?

Shen Jue still had the same thoughts as before. He lowered his head and held Gu Yanshu’s ankle, changing the dressing carefully and maintaining his original answer. “Not for the time being… Hiss… Gu Yanshu, why did you kick me?”

Yes, I’m kicking you. 

Coward.

Big liar.

However, he was still angry at Shen Jue for not telling him anything even till now. He felt that he couldn’t give in first, so he raised his knee and knocked against Shen Xiaojue [TL Note: i.e. his little brother below].

Shen Jue quickly grabbed Gu Yanshu’s knee with his left hand, but he lost his balance. Coupled with the fact that his right hand had just been strained a few days ago, he couldn’t exert much strength, so he couldn’t hold on and fell on Gu Yanshu.

At that moment, Gu Yanshu felt like he was drowning in the whirlpool of bitterness and mature male hormones. Then, a warm softness brushed past his cheek with a hot breath.

Gu Yanshu froze.

Before he could react to what that warm softness was, the door was opened.

Then, the people outside the door also froze.

Shen Jue: “…”

Gu Yanshu: “…”

Jiang Tan: “…”

Xu Fangfang: “…”

Three seconds later.

The door was closed by Xu Fang.

“I’m sorry to disturb.”

“…”

Gu Yanshu’s fair earlobes instantly turned red. He pushed Shen Jue away and glared at him fiercely.

Shen Jue raised his eyebrows innocently. “You were the one who kicked me first.”

Gu Yanshu was so angry that he couldn’t be bothered with him.

He opened the door coldly and saw the two girls outside. His tone immediately changed to a gentle one. “What’s the matter?”

“No, no, it’s nothing.”

Xu Fangfang quickly waved her hand. She wished she could strangle herself ten seconds ago.

She even said that Xia Qingqiao was the reincarnation of Edison. She was the one who should be the reincarnation of Edison! If she didn’t bring Jiang Tan up, the couple she was supporting might even be able to make a child!

Damn it!

However, Jiang Tan obviously didn’t realise what was wrong. She just shook her pink head and said excitedly, “Xiao Shushu, the production team said that I can work with you in the afternoon to earn money, and asked me to ask for your opinion first!”

“Oh, okay…”

“I don’t think he can be in the same group as you.”

Before Gu Yanshu finished speaking, Shen Jue had already appeared behind him. He no longer had the indulgent look he had when he was alone with Gu Yanshu just now.

The man, who was nearly 1.9 metres tall, leaned against the door frame lazily. His aura completely suppressed the two girls, and the corners of his lips curled up into a seemingly gentlemanly but actually casual smile. “He’s going to buy cat food and cat litter for Gu Gugu with me in the afternoon. We’ll also need to take it to the vet to check its health at the same time.”

“Huh… Is that so…” Jiang Tan was a bit disappointed. “Can’t Teacher Shen take care of these tasks alone?”

Gu Yanshu didn’t want to talk to Shen Jue for the entire day and was about to retort.

Shen Jue nodded and said, “Yes, I can’t deal with all of them. That cat recognizes people, and only listens to Gu Yanshu.”

Jiang Tan pouted. “Ah, then I can’t be with Xiao Shushu this afternoon.”

Gu Yanshu was about to retort again.

Shen Jue tilted his head and looked at him. “Gu Gugu seems to have diarrhoea after drinking the milk. It ignored me when I hugged it and whined for a long time.”

“…”

Shen Jue felt like a divorced wife who was using child to morally kidnap her playboy husband. “At least it has your surname. Can you bear to leave it behind?”

“…”

He couldn’t bear to.

Even though he was extremely annoyed by Shen Jue now, he couldn’t leave Gu Gugu behind.

So, he turned to Jiang Tan and said calmly, “The kitten recognizes people and is delicate. I’ll be worried if I don’t go with it.”

“Alright…” Jiang Tan was a bit disappointed, but she quickly became excited again. “Then I’ll go with Fangfang and the others this afternoon!”

As she spoke, she held Xu Fangfang’s hand happily and went downstairs.

The two of them disappeared into the corridor.

Shen Jue tilted his head and looked at Gu Yanshu. He raised the corners of his eyes slightly, as if he wanted an explanation. “If Gu Gugu isn’t sick, you wouldn’t go with me?”

“Didn’t you plan to go alone in the first place?” Gu Yanshu was confused. “Besides, can’t a grown man like you take care of a cat?”

After saying that, he turned around and went downstairs, leaving Shen Jue with his indifferent figure.

Shen Jue: “…”

How ungrateful.

He should be locked up.
