Chu An looked at the message Mrs Chu sent and felt a trace of warmth in his heart. This was the kind of family who was thinking for him.

[Okay, I know what to do.]

After sending the message, Mrs Chu didn’t send another message. Chu An glanced at his phone, then put it aside and focused on the teacher again.

Originally, when the teacher saw Chu An playing with his phone and was about to teach him a lesson, he realized that he had already put down his phone and retracted his attention.

The teacher’s footsteps in Chu An’s direction paused for a moment, then he changed directions as if nothing had happened, pretending that he had no intention of doing anything just now.

During this period of time, in order to reward Chu An, Gu Xiao and Chu An had been living in their place outside school.

When Chu An opened the door and walked in, he saw Gu Xiao sitting on the sofa, reading a book.

Hearing the commotion at the door, Gu Xiao asked without looking up, “You’re back?”

Chu An nodded and quickly walked to Gu Xiao’s side to sit down. He subconsciously reached out and wrapped his arms around Gu Xiao’s waist, pulling her into his arms.

Gu Xiao sensed the strength at her waist and looked up at Chu An. Following Chu An’s strength, she chose a comfortable position and leaned into Chu An’s arms.

Chu An held Gu Xiao in his arms and lifted her hair with one hand, playing with it carefully.

After Gu Xiao finished reading a chapter, Chu An probed, “Xiaoxiao, what are your plans for the Mid-Autumn Festival? Do you want to go out and play, or stay at home?”

When Gu Xiao heard this, her hand that was flipping through the book paused. A few seconds later, she closed the book and placed it on her lap.

“Do you have a plan?”

Chu An met Gu Xiao’s questioning gaze and was silent for a while before saying, “How about we go home for the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival?”

When Gu Xiao heard this, she blinked, and there was a hint of understanding in her eyes.

At the thought of Mr Chu and Mrs Chu’s att.i.tude towards her, it didn’t seem that unacceptable for her to go to the Chu family for the National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival.

“Alright, let’s go home! How about buying some mooncakes when we go back?” After all, it was the Mid-Autumn Festival, and nothing seemed to be as good as mooncakes. Mooncakes were also the most suitable gift for the Mid-Autumn Festival. Moreover, Mr Chu and Mrs Chu did not lack anything. It was better to give some other items that could represent their feelings.

When Chu An saw that Gu Xiao had agreed to return to the Chu family for the holidays, the smile in his eyes instantly deepened a little.

He followed Gu Xiao’s words and said, “If you want to give them mooncakes, just give them those with egg yolks, lotus seeds, and nuts. They like to eat these.”

Mr Chu, Mrs Chu, and the rest didn’t like the other gaudy flavours.

“Nuts?” Gu Xiao was stunned for a moment and subconsciously asked, “Who likes to eat nuts?”

Nuts-flavored mooncakes were considered a cla.s.sic taste. Many people also preferred nuts-flavored mooncakes.

However, for Gu Xiao, she really could not bring herself to like nuts mooncakes. She would rather eat some strange flavors than try the nuts mooncakes.

Chu An looked at Gu Xiao’s slightly furrowed brows and naturally knew that she hated nuts mooncakes the most.

However, when he saw Gu Xiao like this, he still felt that she was too adorable. Even her frown was just right.

He reached out and patted Gu Xiao’s head comfortingly.

“My father likes nuts mooncakes very much.” It could even be said that he extremely liked them. Other than nuts mooncakes, Mr Chu had never liked other flavors of mooncakes.

“But there’s no need to worry. My father won’t force others to eat nuts mooncakes. He respects the preferences of others.”

Even if he didn’t want to respect her, he had no choice. This was because the actual boss of the family, Mrs Chu, didn’t really like nuts mooncakes, and he didn’t like it too much either.

The only one with the same taste as Mr Chu was Chu Zi.

Hearing Chu An’s words, Gu Xiao subconsciously heaved a sigh of relief.

She heard that many elders liked to let the younger generation try more flavored mooncakes. If Mr Chu gave her nuts mooncakes, she really didn’t know if she should accept them.

“Is that so? That’s good.” Gu Xiao’s brows relaxed.

Seeing Gu Xiao like this, Chu An’s expression changed slightly.

It seemed that before Gu Xiao went to the Chu family, he had to clarify Gu Xiao’s taste with others. Otherwise, if anything happened, even if Gu Xiao and his family did not care later, it would not be good.

Just as Gu Xiao and Chu An were planning to return to the Chu family for the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day, on the last day before the National Day holiday, Jiang He suddenly mentioned this matter to Ji Chen..
