Chapter 268: Chapter 268 - 268: Long Time No See

Translator: Zayn_

Song Qingyou returned to her room, thinking that Zhizhi had most likely returned to the cat bed.

However, as soon as she opened the door, she saw her cat standing on the shelf by the door and staring at her without blinking.

Her eyes were as bright as copper bells in the night.

Song Qingyou turned on the lights.

The cat on the shelf did not move at all.

He sat upright and serious.

It looked like they were going to punish him.

Song Qingyou felt both amused and guilty.

She shifted her gaze and looked at the doll that her cat had thrown at her bedside.

“Zhizhi, did you throw that?”

Zhizhi was speechless.

When she didn’t hear a response, Song Qingyou turned to look at the cat.

Usually, when there was only one person and one cat around, Zhizhi was not stingy with its meowing. This time, there was no response. Could it be that it was angry?

Song Qingyou thought for a moment and reached out to him.

“Zhizhi, come here.”

Zhizhi did not respond.

Not only was the cat disobedient, but it also turned its head away from her, looking like a child who was throwing a tantrum.

Song Qingyou understood.

Her cat was angry.

However-

“Don’t be angry, Zhizhi. 1’11 make you something delicious tomorrow.”

“It’s time to sleep now. I’m going to sleep first.”

“Good night.”

Song Qingyou said and left, not spoiling the cat at all.

She even stuffed the doll on the bed into the bedside table.

Jiang Zhihan’s face darkened as he looked up at the time.

Ten o’clock.

Alright, it was time for Song Qingyou to sleep.

He jumped off the shelf and went back to the cat bed.

He could talk about getting angry tomorrow.

So the next day, Song Qingyou got a cat that didn’t want to talk to her.

Shu Ling knew the reason and gave Song Qingyou a sympathetic look.

The others were discussing at the dining table. This time, the guest had actually arrived so late.

Amidst the discussion, someone knocked on the door outside.

“Speak of the devil.”

Tang Zinian stood up.

“I’ll open the door.”

Everyone else stood up, and even Song Qingyou couldn’t sit down and continue playing with the cat.

“It’s better if we go together.” Jiang Xuyan said,” It’s a good time to get to know who it is.”

The seven of them waited in the courtyard. Tang Zinian went over to open the door.

A man and a dog stood outside the door.

“Teacher Gu?!” Tang Zinian exclaimed in surprise.

His voice attracted everyone’s attention.

Shu Ling and the others were stunned when they saw Gu Xingchen, who was dressed like a university student, carrying a backpack and holding a large golden retriever.

Other than Song Qingyou and Yu Muhuai, who didn’t really care, the others had never expected that the program team would actually be able to invite a top celebrity like Gu Xingchen.

Zhong Jiayin, Fu Chen, and Song Qingyou were currently working together on Murder of the Rose. It could be said that they had come to promote the movie, but Gu Xingchen was not among them.

Tang Zinian reached out his hand first, wanting to greet his idol.

However, just as he stretched out his hand, a female voice came from behind Gu Xingchen.

“It really is Brother Gu. 1 thought 1 was mistaken!”

The not-so-tall female celebrity revealed her figure. She had a head of seaweed-like black curls and was wearing a wine-red French dress. She was wearing a pair of black stilettos. She should have climbed up the mountain, but there was not much mud on her high heels.

The makeup on her face matched her style very well, making her facial features look even more exquisite. It was obvious that she had dressed up meticulously.

When she saw Gu Xingchen, her eyes lit up. She left the two suitcases in her hands where they were.

Then, she ran over and waved her hand with a sweet smile.

“Hello, Brother Gu. I’m Chen Zixuan. I’ve worked with you once before, and I was a guest star in Midsummer”

To put it nicely, it was a cameo, but to put it more formally, it was a peripheral role.

Gu Xingchen thought about it, but he couldn’t remember this person’s name at all.

However, since she had introduced herself, he did not have to waste his brain cells.

Gu Xingchen smiled. “1 remember you, Miss Chen.”

Chen Zixuan was overjoyed when she heard that the other party actually remembered her. “So Brother Gu still remembers me. I’m so honored.”

If this segment was broadcasted, she would only need to do a little marketing and the traffic would increase.

It was not in vain that she had heard that Gu Xingchen might participate in this show and agreed to the director’s invitation.

Chen Zixuan was so excited that she didn’t even look at Tang Zinian and the others. It wasn’t until Gu Xingchen got a little impatient that she looked behind her.

“Brother Gu shouldn’t know them, right? 1 read the information carefully before coming here. Why don’t you let me introduce them to you, Brother Gu?”

His solicitous appearance was comparable to a lackey.

Gu Xingchen did not appreciate it. “No need, I know someone.”

Then, he waved at Song Qingyou. “Little Qingyou, long time no see.”

“You actually ignored me when you saw me coming. Are you pretending not to know me? That’s a little too much!”

Song Qingyou was speechless.

“Teacher Gu.” Song Qingyou walked up and smiled. “Please come in.”

Gu Xingchen looked at her “fake smile” and waved the dog leash in his hand.

“Look, 1 brought the dog over this time. Isn’t it cute?”

“Yes.”

Song Qingyou nodded without any other expression.

On the contrary, the golden retriever saw her and came over to take a sniff. It then wagged its tail.

Gu Xingchen: “My dog rarely takes the initiative to talk to outsiders. It seems like it likes you a lot.”

Song Qingyou nodded again, her reaction cold.

Gu Xingchen did not mind. He led his dog in and greeted the others.

“Long time no see.”

Jiang Xuyan and the others looked at Yu Muhuai.

Chen Zixuan, who was originally the center of attention, suddenly became the background.

She sized Song Qingyou up for a while.

When she first saw the other party wearing an ordinary T-shirt and jeans, she thought that she was enough to crush all the female artistes present.

But when she saw Song Qingyou’s face, her face darkened.

Chen Zixuan moved a few steps closer to Tang Zinian to make sure she was far enough away before saying to Song Qingyou, “I need to bring my two suitcases in. You’re an employee of the homestay, so you should be able to help me, right?”

Song Qingyou was about to agree when Yu Muhuai walked over.

“I’ll do it.”

Without waiting for Chen Zixuan to open her mouth, he dragged her suitcase into the courtyard.

Chen Zixuan pursed her lips. When she was about to enter the house, she said, “Let Song Qingyou do it? This is my room. 1 don’t really want men to come in. This is my personal habit. Please forgive me.”

Gu Xingchen stood at the side and talked to Jiang Xuyan. He looked at this scene with interest from the corner of his eye.

At this moment, Shu Ling stood up. “Let me help you.”

“Although I’m not very strong, I’m not so weak that 1 can’t even move two suitcases. Sister Chen, you don’t mind if I do it?”

What else could Chen Zixuan do? She could only nod in agreement.

She couldn’t just say that she wanted to order Song Qingyou around, right?

She didn’t expect Song Qingyou to be so popular that people would rush to help her twice in a row!

Her expression did not change as she smiled. “It seems that I accidentally asked the group pet to help me carry my luggage. If 1 had known earlier, I wouldn’t have asked Qingyou for help. I happened to be the closest to Qingyou at that time, so… I’m sorry..”
