Back Then, I Adored You Chapter 687 - You Are in Love with Me, Aren’t You? (9)

…

Although Qin Zhi’ai’s mother had invited Gu Yusheng and Xiaow.a.n.g to have dinner at her home, she did not have much in the way of ingredients.

When they arrived at her apartment, she warmly welcomed Gu Yusheng and Xiaow.a.n.g into the living room, invited them to sit on the sofa, and poured some tea for them. She then asked Qin Zhi’ai to accompany her to the community supermarket for groceries.

On the way to Qin Zhi’ai’s house, Gu Yusheng had seen a large shopping mall not far away. After Qin Zhi’ai and her mother left, he told Qin Jiayan, “I need to step out and make a call.” He then signaled to Xiaow.a.n.g to follow him, and they left the apartment together.

Because the mall was not too far, and Gu Yusheng was afraid Qin Zhi’ai and her mother would notice his car was gone if they returned before him, he decided to walk to the shopping mall with Xiaow.a.n.g.

On the second floor of the mall, they went into a nutrition store, where Gu Yusheng bought an excessive amount of nutritional groceries and other items.

After checking out, Xiaow.a.n.g’s hands and arms were so full of bags that Gu Yusheng had to grab the last two bags for him. As they walked back to Mother Qin’s home, Xiaow.a.n.g had difficulty carrying his bags, particularly those with the heavy bottles. Only halfway there, Xiaow.a.n.g started to run out of breath.

Gu Yusheng, with only his two bags, walked without effort ahead of Xiaow.a.n.g, who began to slow down and fall behind Gu Yusheng; however, he could not help but to complain.

“I do the most labor, but my boss will take the most credit. Private capitalists are vampires…”

Gu Yusheng suddenly stopped and turned around before Xiaow.a.n.g could finish. Xiaow.a.n.g immediately shut his mouth and, afraid of having offended him, smiled at Gu Yusheng.

Gu Yusheng did not acknowledge Xiaow.a.n.g smiling at him and simply looked at the bags Xiaow.a.n.g was carrying without saying anything. He then turned around and continued to walk to the apartment.

As they were approaching the apartment complex, Gu Yusheng suddenly stopped, turned around, and reached his hands out toward Xiaow.a.n.g. He pointed his chin at the bags, saying, “I’ll take all of them.”

Xiaow.a.n.g was confused.

Master Gu wants to help with some bags?

He of course wanted Gu Yusheng to help, but he dared not to let him carry more. “It’s okay, Master Gu. I can…”

“Give them to me,” Gu Yusheng interrupted.

Xiaow.a.n.g could tell Gu Yusheng meant it, so he obeyed and immediately pa.s.sed a bag in his left hand to Gu Yusheng, but Gu Yusheng took all the bags in Xiaow.a.n.g’s left hand. Gu Yusheng then said, “Give me the other bags, too.”

Did the sun rise in the west today?

Did it rain red today?

Why is Gu Yusheng suddenly becoming so nice?

Xiaow.a.n.g became nervous and, seeing Gu Yusheng frowning, he immediately pa.s.sed the bags in his right hand to Gu Yusheng.

Gu Yusheng happily continued to walk carrying all the bags.

With nothing to carry, Xiaow.a.n.g followed Gu Yusheng. He had b.u.t.terflies in his stomach, worrying about possibly being fired.
