“You…” Hong Liang was half-believing and half-doubting.
The person in front of me was wrapped in a bath towel, with long hair draped on both sides, and that face—a face I would never forget after just one glance.
Isn't that the person who fell into the water yesterday?!
Li Huiwen's special treatment of this person made him think a lot.
"What are you doing in the young master's room?"
Regaining his haughty and professional demeanor, Hong Liang looked directly at the other person.
"I'm the housekeeper newly assigned by President Li," Gu Xinglan said after a moment's thought.
"President Li?"
Just as Hong Liang was about to make a sarcastic remark, as if he had heard a joke, the door slammed into the frame with a bang.
"Remember to prepare two breakfasts!"
Li Taihe did not send anyone to capture Gu Xinglan and bring him back to the underground in Changgu. On the contrary, he even specially ordered someone to buy him new clothes and hire a hairstylist.
Gu Xinglan tried to recall every word Li Taihe had said to him yesterday, and finally realized that these things were really just things Li Taihe had done on his own initiative.
System: [Host, have you forgotten that he asked you to wear a skirt?]
If her brain automatically avoided the system's message, Gu Xinglan walked to the bedside and gently patted Li Hetai's shoulder.
"Time for breakfast."
The person on the bed remained motionless, burying their head in the blanket. He had to pull them out by force.
"Are you pretending to sleep?"
Seeing that Li and Tai's eyes showed no signs of sleepiness and that they were in the expected state, I noticed that Li and Tai's eyes were not sleepy at all.
“Your father slept here yesterday too.” Gu Xinglan stared at the boy’s face.
Li Hetai glanced at him, then shook off his hand, his casual clothes lying neatly on his body without being disheveled.
No one is making breakfast downstairs.
When the servants saw Li Hetai come down the stairs, they ran away faster than anyone else.
Gu Xinglan grabbed one of them. "Where is Madam? Doesn't Madam eat breakfast?"
"Madam has gone out. You...you let me go." The maid avoided his gaze and struggled incessantly.
The moment he released his hand, the other person took off running, giving him no time to react.
Helpless, Gu Xinglan tried calling Li Taihe.
There was no answer from the other end, but when I called Li Huiwen, the call was answered.
"Could you ask your hairstylist to bring over two breakfasts while you're at it?"
I could hear soft breathing on the other end of the phone, and it was disconnected in less than three seconds.
Life in a villa is too lonely.
When Li Hetai's group of teachers arrived, they saw a large and a small group sitting around a coffee table, watching TV and eating.
"cough."
The woman in the lead reminded him.
The two of them turned their heads, then turned back.
Gu Xinglan was the first to get off the sofa and walk in front of the group of people.
"We are tutors who came here to teach Young Master Li." There were six people, each dressed differently, but all of them had expressionless faces.
Under scrutinizing gazes, Gu Xinglan had no choice but to straighten up. "Please sit down, everyone. I'll make you some tea."
"Making tea? You must be joking. You don't need to do anything. Our purpose is to train the young master to be an excellent successor." The woman who spoke adjusted her glasses and said coldly.
These words made Gu Xinglan's eyes light up, and her attention was completely focused on the words "heir".
"Wait, you said you're here to train Li Hetai to be your successor?"
Does this mean his time to be fired is coming soon?
"..." The woman had never seen a servant from any large family be so unruly.
“Where did you come from? Who recruited you? From this moment on, you are not allowed to come within half a step of Young Master Li.”
The air froze as soon as the words were spoken.
There's a saying that you shouldn't hit someone who's smiling, but in this case, Gu Xinglan was practically offering herself up to be hit.
He chuckled and stepped back, offering no response.
The group rushed in, creating a gust of wind that felt sharp and fierce.
Just as the door was about to close, a hand blocked the frame.
"Hello, I teach biology, and I haven't gone in yet."
The person who came in was panting heavily, running so fast he was out of breath, and almost got his head caught in the door.
Gu Xinglan quickly pressed the button, and the door opened automatically.
The person then breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
"Hello, my name is Liu Feizhou." Liu Feizhou was carrying a large stack of books, and the moment he saw Gu Xinglan, he dropped all the books.
The books were scattered all over the floor, and the basic physiological diagrams fell out of the books and slid right to Gu Xinglan's feet.
It's clear that this biology teacher also has a good talent for art.
Gu Xinglan naturally squatted down to help tidy up.
Liu Feizhou knelt on the ground, his expression frozen, like a ripe red apple, completely speechless.
The organ blueprints that had been studied countless times fell out, which should have been just a minor accident, but the person who saw them was one of a kind.
Before he could even react, the other person had already picked everything up. Liu Feizhou wanted to say something, but he couldn't utter a single word. He could only awkwardly accept the neatly arranged books.
"Go inside quickly," Gu Xinglan said with a gentle smile.
"May I have your name?"
It was windy outside. Gu Xinglan closed the door and noticed someone talking to him from behind. He vaguely heard the word "name" and thought they were asking for Li Hetai's name.
"The student you are in charge of is named Li Hetai, a boy who doesn't talk much."
"No, I'm asking..."
Before he could finish speaking, someone called out from afar, "Liu Feizhou!"
"immediately!"
Liu Feizhou looked reluctantly at the people in the hall and could only run back to the main group.
-
"Sir, what kind of hairstyle would you like?"
Teacher Tony, holding a pair of scissors and a spray bottle, circled Gu Xinglan twice, his eyes gradually lighting up.
“I think your current length is just right, suitable for all kinds of hairstyles.”
"No, just give me a neat and tidy haircut." Gu Xinglan looked at herself in the mirror for a while.
Thinking of the way someone had stared at him just now, how could he not feel it? It was because of that person's ambiguous attitude that he couldn't keep his long hair.
He's a real man, 24k.
Gu Xinglan looked thoughtfully at the photo of Zhang Xingnan in the hairstyle catalog, "This one is the one, you can choose whichever you like."
"Oh no, this is too short..." Tony looked at Gu Xinglan's smooth and shiny hair with regret. "How about a trendy layered cut, or a middle part?"
Upon hearing the name, Gu Xinglan flipped through the corresponding photo album, paused for a moment, and finally shook her head. "Thank you, but you don't need a special hairstyle. I have to work a lot, so just a regular short haircut is fine. You can just trim it a few times."
"OK then……"
A buzzing sound filled the hall.
Finally, the hairstylist sighed and used a hairdryer to blow away the last stray hairs.
It is very short, only the length of a finger joint.
Gu Xinglan looked at herself in the mirror with satisfaction.
I hadn't noticed before; I didn't know I had two small moles on my face.
"Mr. Gu, is this still your idea of a standard handsome man's hairstyle?"
Tony put away his scissors and saw the radiant smile on Gu Xinglan's face. He couldn't take his eyes off Gu Xinglan after just one glance, as if he had been struck in the heart by Cupid's arrow. After a long while, all he could do was give a thumbs up to the buzz cut and say infatuatedly, "Mr. Gu, you are the most outstanding work of my life."
