Chapter 75 Congratulations on finding a boyfriend!
Chapter 75 Congratulations on finding a boyfriend!
Brother Gu?
She observed the man closely and realized that although he looked like a middle-aged man, his smile and eyes revealed a childlike innocence.
This is probably a man with intellectual disabilities.
"Uncle Cai," Gu Zhen pointed to Li Xi, who was petting Patrick Star, and told the uncle, "That's Li Xi."
Uncle Cai then waved his hand at Li Xi like a child, saying, "Sister Li Xi."
Li Xi suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, nodded politely to the other party, and called out, "Uncle Cai".
"Brother Gu," Uncle Cai asked Gu Zhen, "Is Sister Li Xi your wife? Should I call her 'Madam' or 'Sister' from now on?"
Gu Zhen and Li Xi were both stumped by Uncle Cai's question.
"Call my sister."
After saying this, Gu Zhen returned to Li Xi's side and whispered to her, "Uncle Cai used to be my bodyguard. He injured his brain while protecting me."
“His IQ is impaired, stuck at the level of a 9-year-old. He speaks very bluntly, so I hope you can be more understanding.”
After finding out the reason for Uncle Cai's injury, Li Xi was naturally not surprised.
She followed Gu Zhen toward the master bedroom, asking as they walked, "Is Uncle Cai married?"
"Have."
Gu Zhen added, "They divorced later."
Hearing this, Li Xi felt a little sad. From Gu Zhen's perspective, she felt sorry for Uncle Cai. But from Uncle Cai's ex-wife's perspective, divorce was the only relief.
“Now that he’s family, we should treat him well.”
Gu Zhen liked hearing Li Xi use the word "we" to describe the two of them.
He turned into the master bedroom and saw Li Xi standing properly outside the corridor, so he took her arm and led her into the bedroom.
Upon entering the room, Li Xi saw a pot of Phalaenopsis orchids on the bedside table near the French windows.
Noticing that all the buds on the orchid had opened, Li Xi exclaimed, "How come they're all open?"
When she gave this orchid to Gu Zhen, there were still seven buds that hadn't opened yet!
It's only been two days, and they're all open.
"You said that when all the orchids are in full bloom, I can be your boyfriend."
Gu Zhen walked over and gently touched the flower branch. He said, "The gardener at home told me that 23 degrees Celsius is the temperature that Phalaenopsis orchids love the most."
"To encourage them to bloom faster, I set the indoor temperature at 23 degrees Celsius."
Gently stroking the petals of the blooming orchid, Gu Zhen smiled and congratulated Li Xi: "Congratulations, Miss Li Xi, you're officially out of single life today."
"From now on, I'm your boyfriend."
Fireworks exploded in Li Xi's mind.
Okay, okay, she has a new boyfriend now.

After finishing cooking, Uncle Cai picked up Patrick Star and prepared to go downstairs for a walk, waiting for Gu Zhen and the others to finish eating before returning to clean up the dishes.
Gu Zhen sent Da Xing to see them out. Once they were outside, he reminded Uncle Cai, "Stay outside until nine o'clock before coming back."
Uncle Cai subconsciously said, "That won't do. Grandpa Gu Han said that I have to clean up the dishes after you finish eating, otherwise the flavors will mix."
"Brother Gu doesn't like strange smells in the house."
Uncle Cai has a strict daily routine that cannot be disrupted; if it is, he feels like he has made a mistake.
Gu Zhen's tone became more serious. He said, "Listen to me, come back at nine o'clock, and I'll have your grandfather Gu Han call you."
Uncle Cai then nodded hesitantly.
The elevator is here.
He carried Patrick Star, who was on a cat leash, into the elevator, and while standing inside, he reminded Gu Zhen, "Make sure Grandpa Gu Han calls me!"
After seeing Uncle Cai off, Gu Zhen took out two scented candles from the cupboard, lit them, and placed them on the table.
He opened another bottle of red wine to celebrate the first day he and Li Xi officially got together.
After taking care of everything, he went to the study to call Li Xi for dinner.
Li Xi sat in his office chair reading a book.
Seeing the black notebook in Li Xi's hand, Gu Zhen looked a little nervous. He was still thinking about how to explain when Li Xi said, "This notebook is very well written."
Gu Zhen relaxed a little.
"Is it?"
"Hmm." Li Xi was holding an anatomy notebook in her hand.
The anatomical knowledge recorded inside was very detailed, and the anatomical diagrams were drawn realistically and vividly, which made Li Xi's heart tremble.
"Are these your notes?"
Gu Zhen took the black notebook pen from her hand and casually stuffed it into the top shelf of the reference book, saying, "It was written a long time ago."
Gu Zhen clearly didn't want to talk about this anymore, so Li Xi didn't ask any further.
She pointed to the door in the study that had a combination lock and asked Gu Zhen, "What's in there?"
Gu Zhen stared at the door, his eyes flashing, and said with a smile, "It's the Treasure Pavilion."
Treasure Pavilion?
Li Xi smiled and said, "I understand. Rich people all have a collection room in their homes to store those precious antiques and paintings."
"Yours is one of those."
Li Xi really wanted to see Gu Zhen's collection of treasures, but she felt that their relationship wasn't quite there yet, and it would be presumptuous to make such a request.
She held back.
"Would you like to go in and take a look?" Gu Zhen bent down and leaned on the chair, encircling Li Xi between the chair and himself, his voice low and deep: "If you want to go in, I can take you to see it."
"but..."
Noticing that Gu Zhen's Adam's apple bobbed up and down several times, Li Xi thought of a saying: when a man swallows in front of a woman, it means that he is aroused by lust.
Li Xi's face flushed, and she quickly pushed Gu Zhen away, jumping up from her chair. "Didn't we say we were going to eat? Let's go eat."
Gu Zhen followed her out of the study.
As they approached the living room, Gu Zhen told her, "After we get married, I will take you to see my treasure trove."
"I hope this didn't scare you."
Li Xi suddenly turned around, looking at Gu Zhen suspiciously, "You didn't hide handcuffs, whips, or torture instruments in that room, did you...?"
"Professor Gu, do you have some unusual hobby?"
Li Xi knew that some people liked to play special games, especially those in positions of power who looked like elites when dressed up, but were wild and untamed when undressed.
Gu Zhen gave her a meaningful look, "Xi Xi knows so much."
Li Xi: "I am a 22-year-old adult woman. Is it a problem that I know a little bit of knowledge?"
"No." Gu Zhen answered irrelevantly, "If Xixi likes it, I can learn about those things."
So what's hidden inside isn't a small leather whip.
What would that be?
Li Xi thought that she would go into Gu Zhen's treasure pavilion sooner or later to find out what was going on.
After having a candlelight dinner, Li Xi and Gu Zhen sat on the sofa watching TV.
She was watching a BBC documentary, and Gu Zhen kept staring at her.
Noticing that Gu Zhen's gaze was becoming increasingly blatant, clearly wanting a kiss, Li Xi took the initiative to be direct: "You don't even dare to kiss me, yet you want to drag me into marriage?"
She had barely finished speaking when Gu Zhen pulled her into his arms.
Li Xi exclaimed in surprise.
Gu Zhen lowered his head and kissed her hot lips, inserting his five fingers into her fingertips and constantly stroking the red mole on her finger.
“Xi Xi”.
"...Xixi."
The tender, lingering calls of "Xi Xi" nearly caused Li Xi to have a hemorrhage.
孽 孽!
Why would Professor Gu seduce a naive young girl whose period hasn't ended?
