"You've also t my senior brother. Before the liberation, he was a prominent figure in the gangs, with a high status. That essentially lifted up as well," Ge Dongxu explained with a laugh.
Upon hearing this, Liu Jiayao thought of Yang Yinhou's age and rembered Ouyang Murong calling her "auntie." Her facial expression turned quite amused, and after a while, she said, "Well, it seems like following you, I'll soon beco a grandmotherly figure myself."
"Haha!" Ge Dongxu was briefly startled upon hearing this, then burst into laughter.
"Laugh, you still laugh, this is all your fault!" Seeing Ge Dongxu laughing happily, Liu Jiayao, thinking about being called "auntie" in the future, blushed and pinched Ge Dongxu's waist hard several tis.
"Can we change the spot next ti? Always pinching the sa place can cause injury," Ge Dongxu said with a wry smile.
"Oh, stop it. With your skills, does a pinch like that even hurt?" Liu Jiayao rolled her eyes and said.
"So, because I have thick skin, I deserve to be pinched?" Ge Dongxu said glumly.
"No choice. I, a great beauty, have been turned into a grandmotherly figure because of you. How could I not pinch you?" Liu Jiayao rolled her eyes and retorted.
Ge Dongxu, looking at Liu Jiayao, was at a loss for words.
"All right, all right, looking at the aggrieved look on your face, I'll pinch you less next ti." Seeing Ge Dongxu looking at her "innocently," Liu Jiayao tiptoed and kissed Ge Dongxu on the cheek.
"Still going to pinch !" Ge Dongxu said with a wry smile.
"What? Don't like it?" Liu Jiayao asked, giving him a sideways glance.
"Like it, of course I like it! Others would beg and still not get it!" Ge Dongxu quickly replied with a grin.
"Giggle!" Seeing Ge Dongxu grinning, Liu Jiayao laughed happily and contentedly, then linked arms with him and whispered softly, "It's really nice to have you by my side."
"I feel the sa," Ge Dongxu said, kissing Liu Jiayao on the forehead.
"By the way, who did you an by Old Gu earlier?" While leaning against Ge Dongxu and waiting for a taxi at the street corner, Liu Jiayao suddenly asked.
"Gu Yezeng, have you heard of him?" Ge Dongxu replied.
"Gu, Gu Yezeng! You an Old Gu is Gu Yezeng!" Liu Jiayao exclaid, her eyes widening in shock.
Seeing Liu Jiayao's astonished expression, Ge Dongxu knew he needn't have asked.
"It seems Gu Yezeng's reputation is bigger than I thought," Ge Dongxu laughed.
"Of course! Ordinary people think of Li Superman when they hear about Hong Kong because there's a lot about him in the news, but for us business people, whether it's influence or reputation, Gu Yezeng is in no way inferior to Li Superman, especially in terms of his influence in the overseas Chinese world. Gu Yezeng's influence is unmatched by any Hong Kong tycoon," Liu Jiayao said, her eyes shining with admiration.
"I really didn't know all that," Ge Dongxu admitted, realizing for the first ti how great Gu Yezeng's influence in the Chinese world was, and was inwardly quite surprised.
Liu Jiayao looked at Ge Dongxu for a while and then said half-jokingly and half-frustrated, "And here I thought you were close to Gu Yezeng. It turns out you hardly know anything about him, yet you still call him Old Gu?"
"No choice, I have a higher status! Originally, he was also supposed to call Master Ge, but I'm too young and insisted against it, so, reluctantly he calls Mr. Ge, and I call him Old Gu. As for his specific status and influence, I never really asked," Ge Dongxu said with a wry smile.
Liu Jiayao's lips opened wide in shock, and it took her a while before she said, "That's sothing only I would believe. If soone else heard you, they'd sure think you were making it all up."
"I only tell you these things, I wouldn't talk about it to anyone else," Ge Dongxu laughed.
"That makes sense," Liu Jiayao said, hugging Ge Dongxu's arm, her face radiating happiness and pride.
While they were talking, Liu Jiayao suddenly rembered sothing, a look of excitent crossed her face, "Oh, that's right, Yu Xin retired from acting because of Gu Yezeng and is now content with staying at ho looking after her husband and teaching her children."
Ge Dongxu smiled upon hearing this, just as he was about to explain, a taxi pulled up in front of them.
The two had just gotten into the car when Ge Dongxu's phone began to ring.
Ge Dongxu took it out and saw it was Gu Yezeng calling, which made him secretly wince.
This trip to Hong Kong was ant to be without bothering Gu Yezeng since he didn't like to trouble others, especially since he was here with Liu Jiayao this ti.
However, he hadn't expected that their trip to Temple Street would accidentally involve Ah Xiong and Ah Yong, which eventually alerted Gu Yezeng.
"Mr. Ge, hello, I just heard from Ah Xiong that you've co to Hong Kong," Gu Yezeng's familiar voice ca through as soon as the call connected.
"Yes, I ca with my girlfriend. I forgot to remind Ah Xiong and Ah Yong just now and ended up waking you up in the middle of the night," Ge Dongxu said, feeling sowhat apologetic.
Because it was already past midnight, nearing one o'clock.
"Mr. Ge, you shouldn't say that. It's already quite rude of as the landlord not to receive you promptly," Gu Yezeng responded humbly when he heard him.
"It's really not that serious, and besides, I ca with my girlfriend this ti, and didn't intend to disturb you," Ge Dongxu said.
"Mr. Ge, you're being too formal. It's our honor to have you and your girlfriend here. How could it be a disturbance? Please let know where you are staying and when it's convenient for you, I would like to co and et you," Gu Yezeng said.
Putting aside Ge Dongxu's other identity, just the fact that he had saved his son's life ant that Gu Yezeng had to pay him a visit now that he knew he was here.
"Alright, let's not be so formal with each other. How about this, if it's convenient for you, arrange a car for . It would make getting around easier. As for eting, let's see how it goes; we can arrange a ti to have a al at the Peninsula Hotel or at your place. Speaking of which, I've been missing Yiran," Ge Dongxu said, feeling a bit uncomfortable with all the politeness and knowing that any further politeness from him would only make Gu Yezeng even more so, chose to break the courtesy.
"Haha, Mr. Ge is right, that's true. Tomorrow morning I'll have Ah Xiong drive to the Peninsula Hotel to wait for you, and he can show you around Hong Kong. Anything you need, just tell him. In a few days, when you're free, co and visit my house. It's quieter and the cook makes decent food. I won't disturb your ti alone for now," Gu Yezeng laughingly replied, delightfully.
"That sounds good," Ge Dongxu laughed.
The two then chatted for a few more monts before hanging up.
"Was that Gu Yezeng?" Liu Jiayao asked.
The driver, hearing the na Gu Yezeng, trembled slightly but quickly steadied himself, laughing, "Sir, your friend's na is really sothing. It nearly gave quite a fright."
Both Ge Dongxu and Liu Jiayao were montarily taken aback, then looked at each other and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
ps: It's Monday, seeking a recomndation and monthly ticket, thank you very much.
