4619 Never Too Late to Love (26)
“Auntie Xu!”
“Good girl!” Auntie Xu’s face was glowing as she nodded happily.
Bai Sheng immediately returned to her room. Just as Auntie Xu was feeling curious and puzzled, the girl returned with a notebook and came up to her.
“Auntie Xu, can I ask you a few questions?”
!!“Yes? Go ahead.”
“Um… what kind of fruit does Chengze like to eat?”
Auntie Xu was Gu Chengze’s personal nanny and was in charge of taking care of his meals and daily life. She should know a lot about his preferences, right?
Auntie Xu was stunned for a moment. After thinking for a long time, she said quietly, “Chengze doesn’t seem to be a fussy eater.”
“Not a fussy eater?”
“Yes, he basically doesn’t refuse fruits, vegetables, or meat.”
Doesn’t refuse anything!?
“Well… there should be something he particularly likes!”
This question stumped Auntie Xu. “Something he particularly likes… how do you say it?”
It’s really hard to tell! Every time she bought fruits, Gu Chengze would wash them clean and eat them. Whichever fruit he ate, he would not show that he particularly liked it, nor would he show any particular dislike. He would just eat them calmly.
No matter what she cooked, other than the difference between salty and bland, he could eat vegetables and even something as gross as bitter gourd, he’d eat with little expression.
“It’s true he’s a cleanliness freak.” Auntie Xu said, “Therefore, I don’t have to worry about what to cook for him every day. The only thing I have to do is clean up. He’s especially picky about hygiene.”
Bai Sheng looked around and probed, “In this case, did I do a good job with the cleaning today?”
Auntie Xu casually ran her hand on the table and saw that there was dust still.
However, Bai Sheng had so enthusiastically cleaned the place that she was too embarrassed to say it. Instead, she remarked, “In the future, leave the cleaning to me. Basically, both of you will be at work when I’m here cleaning. By the time you return, the house will be clean and bright!”
“But you have your family to look after too. You can’t possibly come every day!”
Auntie Xu smiled and replied, “Don’t worry. If I’m not free, there will be a replacement who will take my place.”
When Bai Sheng heard this, she was relieved.
That evening, Gu Chengze came home very early.
Coincidentally, the new clothes that Gu Chengze had bought for Bai Sheng had been dry-cleaned and delivered back to her.
When the man returned home, Bai Sheng was sitting on the sofa eating grapes. When she saw that he had returned, she immediately stood up. However, she did not know what to do and just stood there foolishly.
Gu Chengze was amused. “Why are you standing up?”
Bai Sheng was so nervous that she blurted out, “To welcome you home…”
Gu Chengze chuckled in amusement.
He stood at the entrance and did not move at all. Suddenly, he opened his arms and asked tentatively, “Then… do you want to give your husband, who has returned home after a day at work, a warm hug?”
She was finally enlightened by his words.
Bai Sheng placed the plate of fruits down and walked towards him. When she came up to him, she lowered her head and hugged him. Her face was flushed and clearly, she was a little shy.
He liked her shyness. Especially the way she would turn red when she was shy. It was a look that he would not tire of.
Gu Chengze held her gently and could not bear to let go.
Like the newlyweds they were, they stayed at the entrance for a long time, until Bai Sheng urged him, “My arms are getting stiff.”
Gu Chengze finally released her.
