Chapter 638: 638 Call Him Dad (1)_1
Jiujiu let out an "oh" and didn’t pay much attention.
He thought it was some new project, but when he heard it was just a logo change, he lost interest and continued to walk forward.
Watching the small figure walking ahead, Gu Liancheng felt a bit strange inside.
Even though he knew he was his son, he had never called him Dad. Yet subtly, through their interactions, he could sense that Jiujiu was not completely unfamiliar with him.
Furthermore, he had grown fond of Jiujiu since the latter got hurt for his mother. He was somewhat grateful towards him.
However, children can be awkward. It’s only natural that Jiujiu didn’t start calling him Dad right away.
But Gu Liancheng was in no rush. He could wait. After all, having never been present during his growth, he couldn’t expect to become a doting father so quickly.
He would show with his future company that he wasn’t just a father in name.
As Gu Liancheng pondered on how to win over Qianxun and Jiujiu together, he vaguely heard some noise.
It was the fatherly instinct that couldn’t be put into words.
"It’s a bit heavy, be careful," someone said.
He looked up and saw the workers passing an Alphabet Board taller than an adult. He then looked down at Jiujiu walking below, a feeling of unease hitting him.
"Jiujiu——" Just as he was about to warn him to stay away from the construction scaffold, he heard the workers’ cries of alarm.
The Alphabet Board crashed onto the scaffold, creating sparks. The wire couldn’t hold the board, and with a forceful pull, broke off, the board toppling downward straight towards Jiujiu below.
"Be careful——" While the workers above tried to grab the Board, they missed the crucial moment.
Jiujiu looked up when he heard the noise, only to see a huge object falling towards him.
"Jiujiu——!"
Many pairs of eyes turned towards the scene, but none had the time to react. However, a figure dashed over with incredible speed before anyone could process what was happening.
Jiujiu heard Gu Liancheng shouting his name, turned, and saw a shadow sprinting towards him. The next moment, he was knocked over by a forceful strength and found himself engulfed in a broad, solid, and comforting embrace.
He didn’t have the chance to figure out what was happening when he was brought down. But he didn’t feel any pain. The man shielding him was using his own body to protect him, ensuring he wouldn’t get hurt.
With a "bang," the Alphabet Board crashed onto Gu Liancheng’s back. Shouts came from all directions, and people nearby rushed over.
"Mr. Gu!!"
The eyewitnesses couldn’t believe what they saw. It had taken only a second for the Alphabet Board to fall, leaving everyone in shock. How did Mr. Gu manage to rush over and shield the young master with his own body?
"Mr. Gu! Mr. Gu, how are you?"
"What are you standing there for! Quickly, move this thing away! Call an ambulance!!"
Jiujiu’s lips trembled slightly, as if he wanted to say something.
He didn’t know if the man holding him tightly was still conscious, and a sense of fear slowly crept into his heart.
