Chapter 70 Who do you think you are? Do you think you bought this building?
Gu Zhen immediately unfolded the shawl from his arm and draped it over Li Xi's shoulders.
It is a brown double-sided cashmere shawl, lightweight yet warm.
Coincidentally, Li Xi was wearing a beige wool coat today.
The color of the shawl matched Li Xi's coat style quite well. Li Xi pulled the shawl tighter and noticed that there were folds on the shawl. She teased Gu Zhen, "You didn't buy this shawl especially for me, did you?"
This shawl is a unisex style, so Gu Zhen can wear it too, but it's probably not a color Gu Zhen would like.
Gu Zhen admitted it, "Yes."
The shawls from this brand are not cheap; they cost at least seven or eight thousand yuan each. Even Li Xi herself couldn't bear to buy something so expensive.
She clutched the soft shawl and asked Gu Zhen, "Is this a gift from you?"
Gu Zhen said, "No, that doesn't count."
"This is a small gift that I had the mall staff deliver directly to my home. It's not a gift if it's not carefully prepared."
Li Xi was charmed by Gu Zhen's frankness.
"I have a gift for you, would you like it?"
Gu Zhen's eyes brightened noticeably, and he instantly became more energetic. "You actually prepared a gift for me?"
"of course."
Li Xi opened her backpack, took out a thermos, and then took out two clean disposable cups.
"Here, help me hold this cup."
Gu Zhen subconsciously picked up the cup.
Li Xi unscrewed the thermos and poured in two steaming cups of milk tea. She said, "This is a specialty of W City, XX brand milk tea. You can only drink it in W City."
"So that you can have a hot cup of milk tea, I specially brought a thermos from home."
"Quickly, drink it while it's hot, Professor Gu."
Gu Zhen wanted to laugh for a moment.
"A very special gift." Gu Zhen was very supportive.
"Come on." Li Xi raised her cup and toasted Gu Zhen. "Let's drink this first cup of milk tea of early winter, and wish..."
Before Li Xi could finish her blessing, Gu Zhen said, "May Li Xi always be as happy as she is today."
Gu Zhen stretched out his long finger and pressed it into Li Xi's sweet dimple. He said, "You have dimples when you smile. They're very pretty."
Li Xi's heart softened, and she mumbled, "I originally wanted to say that I wish we could be lying in bed together on this day next year."
Gu Zhen: "..."
He said seriously, "Then say it again."
Li Xi tilted her head back and downed the cup of milk tea in one gulp, then strode forward, saying, "Let's go eat."
You can't say something shameless a second time.
Her shawl was grabbed from behind, and Gu Zhen's voice came from behind her: "The car is parked in Section B, on the other side."
The temperature dropped sharply in Dongzhou City today, and it's expected to snow later. There are many people and vehicles picking up passengers at the high-speed rail station, and parking area A is full.
Li Xi then turned around and followed Gu Zhen toward the parking lot.
After walking for a while, she noticed that Gu Zhen had slowed down and was gradually falling behind her by a step.
This is the position of a protector.
It’s over.
Li Xi thought to herself, "This man is really good at flirting."
Has this guy really never been in a relationship?
It really started snowing on the way back to the city, and for a while it was quite heavy. Li Xi couldn't help but take out her phone to take pictures and post them on WeChat Moments.
Xue Ni immediately liked her post, and then Tang Jiusi and Dixi also liked it.
Only Wan Dabao said sourly: "So rich, and you still ride in a BYD?"
Li Xi immediately blocked Wan Dabao.
"Stupid."
"Who are you cursing?" Gu Zhen heard this and asked her.
Without looking up, Li Xi said, "I ran into a bastard today." She told Gu Zhen about what happened at Guanman's place that day as a joke.
After hearing this, Gu Zhen said, "As Mr. Lin Yutang once said, 'If you have ten coins in your waistband, you will shake your clothes and make a sound. Whenever you talk to people, you will always mention your noble relatives.'"
"Especially among those successful people who originally came from ordinary backgrounds but suddenly became rich."
Li Xi chuckled, "You mean nouveau riche, right?"
Gu Zhen added, "Don't look down on nouveau riche. The poor can become rich, and children from humble backgrounds can become outstanding; these are people with great wisdom."
"I'm only talking about people like Wan Dabao."
Upon hearing this, Li Xi found Gu Zhen quite interesting. "Have you met a lot of oddballs like him, which is why you're so calm?"
Gu Zhen did not deny it.
"What? Professor Gu wants me to stop arguing with an idiot?"
"No, not at all." Gu Zhen told Li Xi, "I like your inexhaustible energy and your stubbornness that can't be crushed."
Gu Zhen turned the steering wheel and exited the overpass. He said, "There's a Shaanxi restaurant up ahead with the best reputation in the city. Let's go try it."
Park the car in front of the restaurant.
Li Xi couldn't wait to unbuckle his seatbelt, bend down, and get out of the car to admire the snow.
Feeling snowflakes landing on her forehead and the tip of her nose, she reached out to catch a few, when she suddenly heard Gu Zhen say, "Li Xi."
"You can argue with an idiot, or you can compete with a moron."
"I'd rather you be a fierce and wicked woman than see you being bullied."
Li Xi turned around and looked at Gu Zhen at the other end of the snow-covered sky.
He was looking down at me, his eyes filled with an indescribable doting and tenderness.
Li Xi's heart started pounding wildly again.
"Don't stand outside in the snow, let's go inside and eat. It's so cold tonight, we should go get some spicy hot pot..."
While eating, Li Xi received a call from Jiang Xinghe.
Jiang Xinghe said, "It's so late, why aren't you back yet? Are you being held in W City and can't come back?"
"I went home early." Li Xi stirred the noodles in her bowl and said, "I ate out with Professor Gu."
"Oh, this rent collector is certainly being very attentive."
"That makes sense, how can you pursue a girl without being attentive?"
Jiang Xinghe lay on the sofa rubbing his stomach. He said, "What did you eat? Bring me a bowl back. It's raining outside, and I'm too lazy to order takeout."
"Want some Shaanxi biangbiang noodles?"
"Eat up, and remember to tell the owner to put extra garlic in for me!"
It was already 11 p.m. when I got back to the apartment.
In the elevator, Gu Zhen said, "I happen to be going that way, so I'll deliver Jiang Xinghe's dinner. You should go home early to wash up and get some sleep."
"it is good."
Gu Zhen arrived at Jiang Xinghe's house carrying a takeout box. Just as he was about to knock on the door, it was opened.
But it wasn't Jiang Xinghe who opened the door; it was Xie Xingyun.
Upon seeing Gu Zhen outside the door, Xie Xingyun's face showed surprise. "It's you?"
Jiang Xinghe heard the commotion and came running.
Gu Zhen warned Jiang Xinghe in a gloomy tone: "Don't bring strangers with unknown identities into the apartment. Have you forgotten?"
Jiang Xinghe protested his innocence, "Brother Zhen! He insisted on coming here himself, I didn't bring him."
"Professor Gu, right?"
Xie Xingyun braced himself against the door, blocking Jiang Xinghe behind him, and subconsciously adopted a condescending attitude as he questioned Gu Zhen: "Who do you think you are?"
"Do I need your permission to visit my brother-in-law's house? Do you think you own this building and that whatever you say is law?"
"He's just a teacher. He's gotten used to disciplining people in your classes. Does he really think he can control everyone?"
“Mr. Xie.” Jiang Xinghe nudged Xie Xingyun’s back, his expression subtly reminding him, “This building really belongs to Brother Zhen.”
“I am his tenant.”
Xie Xingyun: "..."
His domineering aura immediately weakened.
