My Childhood Sweetheart Is a Crazy Beauty Chapter 157 - 157 157 Saying One Thing and Meaning Another
157: Chapter 157: Saying One Thing and aning Another 157: Chapter 157: Saying One Thing and aning Another Beihuai seed to realize that there was a problem with what he had said, hurriedly coughing lightly twice, “It’s a reflex!”
Brother Zhan snorted, “You’re just saying one thing but aning another!
Xiaxia is such a nice girl, why are you always picking on her, as a grown man, is it necessary?”
Beihuai: …
Was Brother Zhan, who always stood by him, really won over by Tang Chuxia?
He felt a bit depressed.
But soon he figured it out; after all, Tang Chuxia was the one who had helped Mrs.
Qin wake up.
If it were him, he probably would have done the sa.
Brother Zhan talked to him for a while before he found out that Tang Chuxia had gone back to the old house for ancestor worship and definitely wouldn’t be ho today.
“It’s actually a good chance for you to help think, what should I buy for Xiaxia?”
Brother Zhan rubbed his hands together, very excited, wishing he could find Tang Chuxia right away to express his gratitude.
Beihuai rubbed his fingers, “I don’t know what she likes!”
Brother Zhan looked at him in shock, “You really don’t know?
Aren’t you two always at odds?”
As the saying goes, your greatest enemy is always the one who knows you best; how could Beihuai not understand Tang Chuxia?
Could it be that their feud was a fake?
He swept a suspicious gaze over Beihuai, who coughed lightly, “Well, not getting along ans even less understanding, okay?”
He shouldn’t have spoken, because by saying that, Brother Zhan despised him even more.
“Forget it, asking you is useless.
I might as well go and discuss it with Haipeng!” Saying this, he was about to find Wen Haipeng but was stopped by Beihuai.
“He didn’t sleep at all last night, and if you go to him now, he’s surely just fallen asleep.
Why don’t you ask my sister instead?” Beihuai suggested consulting Gu Nanzhi.
Brother Zhan slapped his thigh, how could he have forgotten that he could ask Gu Nanzhi.
He left Beihuai and went to find Gu Nanzhi, who was just about to leave the house.
Everyone has their own issues, and Gu Nanzhi, blocked at the door by Brother Zhan, looked bewildered, “What are you doing?
Let’s not bring up that stuff about pretending to be your fiancée to trick your mom, okay?”
Brother Zhan waved his hands repeatedly, “No, no, why would you think that of ?”
It was all old news, and Gu Nanzhi didn’t believe Brother Zhan.
Because Mrs.
Qin had been ill before, Brother Zhan had asked Gu Nanzhi for help, but she had refused at the ti.
Gu Nanzhi was afraid that Mrs.
Qin would take it seriously; what if she really beca the daughter-in-law of the Qin Family?
She hadn’t even enjoyed her life yet.
Despite still being on guard, Gu Nanzhi’s face broke into a very sleazy smile when she heard Brother Zhan wanted to buy a gift for Tang Chuxia.
“What?
Got a crush on Xiaxia?”
Brother Zhan unusually didn’t deny it right away.
“If Xiaxia doesn’t mind, I’m open to the idea!”
He had just finished speaking when soone smacked the back of his head, and naturally, it wasn’t Gu Nanzhi, but Beihuai.
“Aren’t you afraid the Tang brothers will eat you alive?” Beihuai reminded, none too kindly.
Gu Nanzhi jumped in to counterargue for Brother Zhan, “Brother, you’re wrong there.
What’s wrong with Brother Zhan?
If he pursues Xiaxia, he surely has a better chance than you!”
Beihuai felt a lump in his throat.
Were these words an own sister should say?
How could he not match up to Brother Zhan?
But he really couldn’t refute that statent.
Qin Zhan chuckled, “Exactly, I’m no worse in looks than your brother, plus I’m dashing and charming.
Who wouldn’t like that!”
Since Mrs.
Qin’s condition could be controlled, Qin Zhan felt much more relaxed and could even joke around.
Gu Nanzhi nodded, “Right, right, just don’t use the words ‘dashing and charming’!”
Qin Zhan, not understanding why, asked with an earnest face, “Ruined a good phrase!” After Gu Nanzhi said this, she covered her head and scampered off, and Qin Zhan was so annoyed he wanted to catch and scold her.
Gu Beihuai reminded him, “The gift!” Qin Zhan could only compromise with Gu Nanzhi, “Brother won’t hold it against you, I ca here seeking your help!”
Gu Nanzhi ca back, indicating she needed a reward.
Qin Zhan said that was not a problem.
Gu Beihuai then pulled Gu Nanzhi aside to warn her, “Ah Zhan really doesn’t have much money left; take it easy!”
The siblings whispered, which Qin Zhan didn’t know about and wasn’t paying attention to, as he was only thinking about what to buy for Tang Chuxia.
Gu Nanzhi said she understood.
They went to the store together.
Gu Nanzhi knew Tang Chuxia’s preferences, but lately, Tang Chuxia had changed so much that she wasn’t sure anymore.
She could only suggest, “How about we just buy so food?
Xiaxia is really a glutton!”
As she looked at the pastries, she began to drool, and Gu Beihuai had to pull back on the collar of her clothes, “I think the real glutton here is you!”
If he rembered correctly, Tang Chuxia’s room was full of snacks, which Gu Nanzhi had ntioned more than once.
She always went there to freeload food, and Tang Chuxia didn’t mind these small things.
Qin Zhan thought it was a good idea and let Gu Nanzhi pick sothing, “This is your reward!”
Gu Nanzhi didn’t expect Qin Zhan to be so straightforward, and her opinion of him improved a lot.
Then she genuinely suggested,
“Xiaxia likes drawing, but she doesn’t have a professional sketchbook.
Get her one of those!”
It wasn’t expensive, but the key point was that Tang Chuxia liked it.
Qin Zhan felt a bit embarrassed, feeling it was too simple a gift.
Gu Nanzhi patted his shoulder, “You’re underestimating Xiaxia.
If she knew you bought a bunch of useless stuff, she would feel that the thought wasn’t right.
It’s the sentint that matters, not the cost.
Xiaxia will definitely understand!”
There was sothing else Gu Nanzhi didn’t say outright.
The dicine Mrs.
Qin needed posed a life risk for her brother to obtain, and it might not even work.
anwhile, the thing Tang Chuxia gave Mrs.
Qin not only woke her up but made her feel exceptionally good.
Judging from the results alone, this dicine certainly wasn’t sothing money could buy.
If it were about money, Tang Chuxia wouldn’t have given it to Mrs.
Qin secretly.
Qin Zhan realized this too, and pulled Gu Nanzhi to go shopping, while Gu Beihuai was originally with them but t his uncle halfway and got dragged away.
“You little rascal, not even bothering to co see !”
The uncle was quite unhappy.
Recently, those available for gossip were all busy, and just as he gathered so juicy bits of news, Gu Beihuai never visited him, making him feel very annoyed.
So, when going out to find his nephew for gossip and seeing him out shopping with soone else without contacting him, he felt even more disgruntled.
Gu Beihuai found a teahouse, where the two of them sat down for tea.
“Aren’t you going to ask why I urgently wanted to see you?” The uncle couldn’t hold back anymore, his face begging Gu Beihuai to ask.
Gu Beihuai deliberately did not ask and just poured him tea, driving the uncle almost to desperation.
After a cup of tea settled in his stomach, Gu Beihuai still kept his cool, making the uncle even more frustrated, but eventually, the urge for gossip got the better of him.
“Do you rember the last ti you asked to dig up so information?”
Gu Beihuai nodded.
“Not only did I find out, but I also stumbled upon another piece of news.
Do you know why Wen Wenqing divorced Jin Beiyang?”
