After all, Bai Zhun's birthday wasn't the birthday of him alone.
It involved the shift of power in the entire Bai family, so they couldn't be careless anywhere.
But it was clear that Bai Zhun did not pay much attention to this matter.
Old Master Gu stopped and smiled. "Bai Zhun, it's going to be an exam soon. I think you're a little tired from studying these few days. If you're tired, then just have a rest first. Let my girl accompany you. She's good at making people happy."
"No need. Thank you, Grandpa Gu." Bai Zhun stood up as he spoke. "Grandpa, I'm going out for a while."
Old Master Bai frowned. "It's already so late, and you're still going out?"
"Go and pick up Ajiu." Bai Zhun lowered his head and put on his coat. He didn't care about the heavy snow outside and wanted to rush out.
Old Master Bai called for someone to stop him, and he walked over with his walking stick. "There are guests at home. If Ajiu wants to come back, she will call you. I have taught you since you were young that you need to know your limits. Now we are talking about your birthday, not someone else's. After that, you can leave. I will also ask the driver to send you over."
At this time, Gu Rou walked over, as if she wanted to help. "Grandpa Bai, Bai Zhun is also worried about Ajiu, but it should be fine. I heard that Ajiu is with friends. She will come back sooner or later."
This was what Li Hailou and the others heard when they pushed the door open and walked in.
Gu Rou gave him a look, hinting for him to stop Bai Zhun so that things would not become more complicated.
It was not that Li Hailou and Xiao Lin did not want to let Bai Zhun go, but they knew that Bai Zhun's current state was not right. In addition, how was Bai Zhun going to look for Ajiu?
The addresses left were all fake, and the phone's GPS could not be located. The strangest thing was that even the tracker on Ajiu's phone had lost its response.
A few juniors pulled Bai Zhun and brought him upstairs.
Originally, the three of them did not want to bring Gu Rou along.
Gu Rou stuck out her tongue helplessly and said, "I had no choice. My grandfather asked me to come up and take a look. He was worried about Bai Zhun."
Gu Rou was very smart. She did not talk to Bai Zhun. Instead, she whispered to Lixiao Bawang on the other side, "Hailou, I heard from my classmates that Ajiu followed that transfer student home. Could this be True?"
Li Hailou did not speak.
Gu Rou then let out a long sigh, "She is too young. She doesn't know that her family will be worried about her. When she comes back later, don't talk about it before her. I am worried that she will have a rebellious mentality. The more I talk about her, the closer she is to that transfer student."
Li Hailou clenched his hands. He really did not understand how things would turn out this way.
The snow outside was still falling. The wind blew against the glass, making a sound again and again.
In the clean and bright semi-open kitchen, Helian Qingchen cut the diced eggplant. He crushed the tomatoes and put them into the pot with a crash. When the fragrance spread out, the silly and cute Ajiu went over. She was in charge of getting the seasoning for second brother.
Helian Qingchen used chopsticks to pick up a piece of diced eggplant and put it in her mouth. Then he let her go and get the rice herself.
Ajiu ran with his chopsticks and electric rice cooker. He didn't have a moment to rest.
When the four dishes were done, the brother and sister sat down.
Helian Qingchen didn't eat. Instead, he took out his phone and snapped a picture of her.
In the picture, Ajiu still had furry ears. When she raised her head, her big eyes were filled with confusion. The bowl was even bigger than her face. It was the perfect embodiment of a cute creature.
Chapter 1233 - She Began to Be Polite to Him
"Not good-looking... Looks like a foodie." This was Ajiu's evaluation of herself. During this period, she did not forget to continue feeding herself. Her cheeks were bulging like a little hamster as she was eating in an adorable manner.
Helian Qingchen smiled as he placed his hand behind Ajiu. He then turned the camera into selfie mode. Then, with a click, another photo was taken.
However, this time, it was a photo of the two of them.
In the photo, Ajiu was like a kitten, squinting her eyes while eating. In order to cooperate with her, Helian Qingchen narrowed his left eye handsomely. The black earring was very eye-catching; the phone also came with a special photo effect. Two cat ears were added on the heads of a brother and sister. They were really very beautiful.
Even through the screen, one could sense the intimacy between the two young lives.
Taking a selfie with her brother was something Ajiu had never done before.
Helian Qingchen doted on her. Only Ajiu could pull his face and make him make a series of funny expressions.
All of these were taken on Ajiu's phone. Therefore, even when she returned to the Bai family, Ajiu was worried that her phone would disappear.
Because second brother had also said that he could only stay by her side for seven days.
Ajiu was still happy. She knew that her brothers couldn't get close to her and was worried that it would affect her.
She was already very satisfied to be able to be together for seven days.
Helian Qingchen stood outside the courtyard and watched Ajiu enter.
He didn't ask anyone to forge an identity for him. Even if he entered the Bai family now, it wouldn't be a problem. However, it wasn't the time yet.
When Ajiu returned to the Bai family alone, she pushed open the door of the Bai Family. It was very lively inside, as if they were having a meal together. From Afar, one could hear a string of light laughter.
"Today, Ajiu is not here. I can finally have a meal at the Bai Family. As expected, the meal made by Auntie Wang smells so good."
The rich smell of meat that pervaded the living room was indeed very good for others. However, it was hard for Ajiu to accept it.
In the Bai Family, it was nothing in the past.
Now, she should feel that it was somewhat inconvenient to be wary of her vegetarian diet.
Yes.
She would eat at second brother's place in the future.
Since second brother was not around, she could eat in the school cafeteria, or she could eat the pancake fruit at the school gate.
The crepe was not expensive, but it was still delicious.
Ajiu nodded to herself as she thought about it.
She was still holding a bunch of things in her hands. Although the smell of meat was not disgusting, there was always some resistance.
Recalling the mask that her second brother had bought for her, the child cleverly took one off and put it on her face. Then, she lowered her head and began to change her slippers.
Perhaps because the people in the living room were too engrossed in their conversation, no one noticed that Ajiu had returned. It was Vice Commander Zhang who came in to deliver the things. When he saw Ajiu, he was stunned. "Miss, young master has been looking for you. You are finally back."
Vice commander Zhang had not finished speaking when Bai Zhun Strode over from the living room. His c.h.e.s.t rose and fell, and his clear black and white eyes looked at Ajiu who was standing in front of him.
The rest of the people also walked out. These included Xiao Lin, Li Hailou, and Gu Rou.
Old Master Gu and Old Master Bai were from the older generation. They did not move and were still drinking tea in the living room.
Ajiu was carrying a lot of things in her arms. The gloves, mask, and the pair of cat ears on her head were obviously newly bought.
Gu Rou immediately smiled. "Look, you guys are still worried about Ajiu. It seems that the transfer student treated Ajiu well and even bought so many things for Ajiu."
Without paying attention to Gu Rou, Ajiu only raised her eyes and told Bai Zhun, "I'm going upstairs." Then, sh
e carried her own things and walked towards the stairway, while the white cat followed obediently behind her.
Bai Zhun's hands loosened and loosened. Finally, he took a step forward and pulled her back. His voice was very deep and sounded a little hoarse. "Have you eaten? If you haven't eaten, I'll go make something for you."
"Thank you, Little Brother. There's no need. I've already eaten." Through the mask, Ajiu's voice sounded more formal and polite.
Bai Zhun indeed felt something at that moment. In the past two days, he had always felt that something was wrong.
She was clearly still the very obedient person, but she was no longer the Ajiu who liked to stick to him.
She had actually learned to be polite in front of him.
When Bai Zhun thought of this, his eyes suddenly trembled, and even his heart began to ache.
He understood Ajiu better than anyone else.
Even Gu Cheng, who had appeared before, had not made Bai Zhun feel so strongly uneasy.
Because no matter what Gu Cheng gave Ajiu, ajiu had never asked for it.
Ajiu was always very polite to outsiders. She would not easily accept anything from anyone.
Other than the brothers she grew up with, she would return anything given to her even if she accepted it.
However, the things she held in her hands today all indicated that the person who bought them for her was special to her.
As long as he thought of these the word 'special'.
Bai Zhun felt as if his breathing became a hundred times more uncomfortable.
In the end, Old Master Bai was still worried. He strolled over and first carried Ajiu with a smile before saying, "Why is Little Ajiu so cute today? She even bought a pair of cat ears?"
"It was brother Qing Chen who bought them for me." Ajiu was really the best brother in everything. She immediately took out her phone and showed it to old master Bai. "Grandpa Bai, take a look. This is brother Qing Chen. Isn't he very good-looking?"
At this point, Ajiu was similar to Baili Shangxie.
Simply put, Baili Shangxie loved showing off his younger brother, while Ajiu loved showing off his elder brother.
In short, the brother and sister were both showing off Helian Qingchen.
When Old Master Bai lowered his head and looked at the photo, he couldn't help but feel a little absent-minded. It was strange. Why did this youth look a little familiar.
"What's his surname?" Old Master Bai asked.
Ajiu said, "Helian. His full name is Helian Qingchen."
Speaking of which, she also liked second brother's name very much. It's just that she didn't know who gave her name, why did she have to be called 'Jiu'? To be honest, she felt that others were too lazy to give her a name and casually picked a number for her, which was meaningless.
"Achoo."
The sneeze was heard across the eight prisons of the devil realm, across the lands with glaciers and white snow, across the other shore where flowers are blooming.
On the Devil's seat that was ten li away from the corpse, Baili Jiajue's slender fingers supported his chin. With a sound that caught him off guard, all the magical beasts below that were still learning how to swim like goldfish collectively lifted up!
Holy shit, what kind of situation is this?
The Emperor actually sneezed?
The Huo Qilin also stood at the side, wagging its tail that was burning with fire. After hesitating for a while, it finally opened its mouth, "Master, what are you doing?" It couldn't be that you're thinking about the princess consort, right.
"Catching a cold."Baili Jiajue's voice was very indifferent as uttered the three words.
Huo Qilin was speechless.
You're a great devil that has lived for thousands of years, how could you catch a cold? Who are you lying to?!
Chapter 1234 - She’s Causing Trouble Without Reason?
"What? Is it very strange that I catch a cold?" Baili Jiajue stood up. His half-opened black robe brushed across the ground, and the demonic qi that greeted him was enough to make people tremble in fear.
Immediately, the Huo Qilin shook its head.
The group of monsters also shook.
The devil world was churning.
Without looking at them, Baili Jiajue strolled into Prajna Hell. With every step he took, there would be black feathers falling down.
This was indeed a country that belonged to death. Blue flowers and a spreading river. Countless spirits of the dead were floating on it. At the end of the river, there was an ancient divine beast called Tuntian.
It seemed to have fallen asleep and just lay by the river. Its tail hung down and it was put into the river.
Everything in the Devil World seemed not to be trifled with.
However, there were some people who did not know that she had really provoked someone who should not be trifled with.
Three thousand feet above, the world was bustling with noise.
In the Bai Family's Hall, Ajiu was still looking down at her phone with Old Master Bai.
Bai Zhun and the others were standing at the side. Of course, they also saw the group photo inside.
In the photo, Ajiu was held in Helian Qingchen's arms. The two of them had special effects. They had a red dot on their noses, three whiskers on their faces, and a pair of pink and white ears on top of their heads. These characteristics made them look like two cats.
Not only would Helian Qingchen not reduce his temperament in the photo, but he would also appear more agile and handsome.
Even Gu Rou could not help but chuckle and said, "This transfer student is really good-looking."
Clenching his fists, Bai Zhun looked at Ajiu who treated the photo in the phone like a treasure. He did not say anything.
Old Master Bai patted Ajiu's head instead. "If Ajiu is not sleepy, don't go up first. We are talking about your little brother's birthday party. You should also listen. When someone comes, Grandpa Bai is afraid that he won't be able to take care of you."
In fact, Ajiu had always been sensible. This was not because of her personality, but because of the upbringing that she had received since she was young.
When the guests came, as long as they did not choke her, she would not embarrass them. Even if she did not like this person, she understood that this was the Bai Family after all. She could not offend the people that the Bai family wanted to make friends with just because she did not like them.
Old Master Bai thought that since Ajiu was back, Bai Zhun's heart should be able to settle down as well. While there was still time, he talked about the details of the birthday party.
Ajiu listened attentively. During the party, there would be a session where the little brother and his friends would gather together to play. They were all boys and girls between the ages of seventeen and twenty. Therefore, it wouldn't be appropriate for her to go.
Old Master Gu was still discussing with Old Master Bai. He felt that this plan was not bad.
Ajiu did not say anything either. Secretly, she decided that after the birthday party ended, she would give the gifts that she had bought to the little brother.
After Old Master Gu and Old Master Bai finished discussing, they brought Bai Zhun to the study.
It seemed that the Gu family would be staying at the Bai family's house today.
Ajiu lowered her head and packed her things. She also planned to return to her room.
However, Gu Rou spoke at this moment, "It's indeed not bad to celebrate alone, but Ajiu is still young, so it's not convenient for her to follow us. Ajiu, why don't you go and tell your brother to cancel the private celebration? It doesn't matter if we play or not. Most importantly, you have to be happy. Don't get into an argument with your brother on your birthday."
"No." Ajiu looked up at Gu Rou. Her eyes were black and white, as if she could see through everything.
Li Xiao Bawang was not thinking about celebrating alone, but about today's matter. "Ajiu, you and Helian Qingchen left just like that. Have you considered
Bai Zhun's feelings?"
Ajiu turned sideways. She was still wearing a mask. In the face of these questions, she did not say anything. Instead, she just buried her head and put the furry cat-claw gloves into her school bag.
Just then, Master Li's voice became lower. "Bai Zhun really pampers you too much."
"Hai Lou!" Xiao Lin grabbed his arm.
While struggling, he shouted, "Let go of me. I must talk to Ajiu. She..."
"You are with your friends. I am with my friends. What is there to be embarrassed about?" Ajiu's eyes faintly interrupted Master Li's words. "I will not listen to a few words from others and a person like you. I know very well who is the one who is really good to me."
Master Li really did not expect Ajiu to talk to him like that.
Her small face was still cute, but the look in her eyes was different.
Master Li scratched his hair in annoyance. "Ajiu, I didn't mean to blame you. I'm anxious. Do you understand?"
"Yes, I understand."Ajiu thought for a moment, reached out her hand, and touched Master Li's head with the tip of her toes.
Master Li was also worried that Ajiu would ignore him if he couldn't explain himself clearly. Because he loved Ajiu very much, he became agitated when she abandoned her brothers for someone who appeared out of nowhere.
However, he didn't know that the key problem wasn't here.
"Alright, since the misunderstanding has been resolved, let's not be so distressed." Gu Rou is smiling faintly at the side. "Let's talk about the birthday party. There will be many people coming. Originally, it was best to make western-style self-service dishes, but there's meat in every dish. If Ajiu really can't eat meat here, I'll tell Grandpa Bai and we'll change it to something else. How about it? Western food was very high-class, but Ajiu couldn't eat it. We have no other options."
Ajiu turned her head and looked at the person in front of her who was smiling.
She had told herself many times to get along well with her little brother's girlfriend.
After all, her little brother did not exclusively belong to her.
It was very uncomfortable to say such things, and she would feel a little sad at night.
