Chapter 64: Lu Zhiyuan’s Gift

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

A week later, following the persistent urging of Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ziyu, Gu Ci and Zhou Jinjin finally boarded the plane back to China. Zhou Jinjin still had a strong desire to visit many places and play for at least another ten days.

“Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ziyu are so clingy to you. They can be really overbearing,” Zhou Jinjin expressed his frustration. “Originally, Gu Ziyu was supposed to video call you for ten minutes, but after Lu Zhiyuan video-called for an hour, he started doing the same. Are they competing to see who can have a longer video call? It’s just too much.”

There were so many things to complain about that Zhou Jinjin didn’t know where to start.

“Men and their obsession with winning and losing, even when they are in the United States,” Zhou Jinjin commented. Gu Ziyu’s personality was a genuine reflection of his father’s, as he always liked to compare himself with Lu Zhiyuan. Every day, he would repeat in Gu Ci’s ear, “Mom, when I grow up, I will be more handsome than Dad.”

Before boarding the plane, Gu Ci received some news that made her extremely unhappy. Lu Shijie had been released. He had spent more than 20 days in the detention center and had now come out unscathed.

“Lu Shijie is such a despicable person. How could he be released? Can’t he be convicted?” Zhou Jinjin didn’t have a favorable impression of Lu Shijie and Lu Shixiu. Lu Ze was a wise man, so how could he have children like these two?

Gu Ci was unsure of what went wrong. “Maybe… the chain of evidence was incomplete,” she speculated. It was the only reason she could think of.

They slept on the plane and woke up at City As international airport, where Lu Zhiyuan and Gu Ziyu came to pick them up.

Having not seen Gu Ci for over ten days, Gu Ziyu missed her dearly. He rushed over like a cannonball and hugged her waist. “Sister, did you miss me?”

“I missed you to death!” Gu Ci cupped his face and kissed him on both cheeks. “Did you miss me?”

“Yes!” Gu Ziyu nodded firmly. Then, he obediently took Gu Ci’s three large suitcases and pushed the cart for her. Zhou Jinjin’s eyes welled up with tears as he watched. “I also want to have such a devoted younger brother.”

Gu Ci was left speechless.

She really couldn’t have one!

“Little Milk Bun, you haven’t been so attentive to your girlfriend since you grew up, have you?” Lu Zhiyuan had his hands in his pockets, exuding calmness, confidence, and unrestraint.

Gu Ziyu smiled and replied, “I treat my sister like my girlfriend.”

“You can’t woo me.” Lu Zhiyuan had 108 thoughts about abandoning Gu Ziyu.

“Why can’t I woo you?” Lu Zhiyuan smiled seductively, his eyes exceptionally alluring.

“Lu Zhiyuan, don’t talk nonsense!” Gu Ci knew what he was about to say the moment she heard his words. She glared at him, and the flirtatious look in her eyes made his heart itch.

“What secrets are you hiding from me?” Gu Ziyu looked at Gu Ci innocently, acting coquettishly. “Is there anything I can’t know?”

Gu Ci said, “Baby…”

“Children shouldn’t interfere when adults are talking,” Lu Zhiyuan interjected, grabbing the suitcase that Gu Ziyu was pushing and striding forward. Gu Ziyu became furious. The two of them even started competing childishly over pushing the suitcase. With his long legs and arms, Lu Zhiyuan outpaced Gu Ziyu.

Zhou Jinjin felt numb. “Did anyone see me pushing three suitcases?”

Gu Ci chuckled. Gu Ziyu reluctantly ran back and helped Zhou Jinjin push one suitcase. He didn’t forget to complain to Gu Ci, “He’s so annoying.”

It was one thing for them to vie for attention, but they even fought over taking care of their mother!

The more Gu Ci looked at Gu Ziyu, the more adorable he appeared. She ruffled his hair and pacified his little temper.

Upon their return to the Global Center, Lu Zhiyuan stored his luggage in the cloakroom, Gu Ziyu went to cook, and Gu Ci began unpacking the boxes and displaying the trophies.

She had bought six limited-edition bags and filled a box with her favorite clothes. She also purchased a pair of Bluetooth earphones and sneakers for Gu Ziyu.

Lu Zhiyuan lounged lazily nearby. “What about my gift?”

“I forgot.”

“You heartless little one.”

Gu Ci chuckled and handed him a sapphire blue velvet box. “This is for you.”

Lu Zhiyuan’s eyes lit up. He stood up straight and proudly accepted the box. Inside was a unisex necklace—a pure silver chain with a black gold wolf head pendant. It exuded flamboyance, luxury, dominance, and personality. She knew it would suit Lu Zhiyuan at first sight.

“Do you like it?” Gu Ci asked.

“Men wear necklaces, women talk,” Lu Zhiyuan replied, trying on the necklace in front of a full-length mirror. The joy on his face was evident.

“Then give it back to me. I’ll see Ziyu off,” Gu Ci reached out to snatch it back, but Lu Zhiyuan sidestepped, avoiding her. With one arm around her waist, their figures in the mirror appeared inseparable.

“Who said I’m seeing someone off?” Lu Zhiyuan pinched her waist. Gu Ci’s whole body went numb, and she almost fell into his arms. Lu Zhiyuan said, “Help me put it on.”

Given his height, he had to squat down. Gu Ci helped him put on the necklace. As she looked into the mirror, the black and gold necklace truly complemented Lu Zhiyuan’s flamboyant and dominant personality. “You’re a wolf,” she remarked.

Lu Zhiyuan’s heart skipped a beat. He embraced Gu Ci and pressed her against the full-length mirror, kissing her passionately. Just then, Gu Ziyu’s voice could be heard, along with the sound of his footsteps. Gu Ci pushed Lu Zhiyuan away, half-squatting on the ground to tidy up her suitcase. Her face and neck were flushed red.

“Sister, we can eat now,” Gu Ziyu called out cheerfully, yet he couldn’t help but notice the strange atmosphere between his parents.

“Little one, you came at the wrong time.”

Gu Ziyu stared blankly at the relaxed and unrestrained Lu Zhiyuan. He felt as if his peach blossom eyes were burning red, brimming with seductive love. Gu Ziyu asked innocently, “Brother, are you running a fever?”

“I’m fine.”

“Your face is really red,” Gu Ziyu remarked. Lu Zhiyuan coughed, and Gu Ziyu continued, “Your ears and neck are also red. Are you sure you’re not running a fever?”

Lu Zhiyuan walked over and picked up Gu Ziyu. “Little one, you talk too much.”

Gu Ziyu was left speechless.

Gu Ci patted her face and let out a sigh of relief. She secretly glanced at the French window. The young girl in the mirror had flushed cheeks, bright red lips, and lustful eyes.

It would be too embarrassing if Gu Ziyu saw her like this.

Lu Zhiyuan helped Gu Ziyu bring out the dishes. Before picking up Gu Ci, he had already prepared the ingredients. The table was adorned with roast duck, cheesy grilled potatoes, stir-fried pork with garlic sprouts, braised pork ribs, stir-fried lily with celery, and pork rib and winter melon soup. It was a grand feast.

When Gu Ci joined them, her face was still red, but she didn’t show any signs of awkwardness. Gu Ziyu scooped some soup for her, and Gu Ci asked, “Baby, how’s your training with Chen Fei?”

She looked at Ziyu, who had lost weight and had a sharper chin..
