Through the book: The villain’s son’s stand-in

Chapter 419 Returning home in glory

"Ding Ding Ding!"

At this moment, the 12 o'clock alarm clock rang loudly, breaking up the atmosphere where the two were in the same boat.

This conversation ends here.

Gu Cheng released his fish-tailed state, put on the hat and mask he had prepared, and walked out of the side door.

The players who were waiting anxiously outside the door were cursing the man who occupied the manhole and refused to shit.

Prevent them from confirming!

As soon as 12 o'clock arrived, an announcement sounded in the building.

"The easter egg mission has ended. Congratulations. 5123 people have successfully identified the easter eggs. These players will receive a gift package of all the games in Magic Game. You are welcome to collect it at any front desk on the first floor."

As soon as the report came out, everyone's discussion became even louder.

"You said someone admitted the identification, but tell me who it is!"

"Don't you know if you ask the person who got the gift bag? They must know who they voted for."

"Me, me, me, the Hela I voted for is the Hela in this room!"

"Ah! It's really Hela. Gu Xiaomo really made a big deal out of it, cheating! He just saved 200 years of detours!"

"Ahhh! Just a little bit, I'm one behind the guy inside! This is also true for breaking a door. When it comes to the critical moment, something goes wrong and I can't even push it away! Otherwise, I would have got the peripherals!"

"It's a big loss for me. I'll be behind you. If you hurry up, I'll definitely be able to take a shot!"

"It's all the fault of the person inside! By the way, why hasn't the person inside come out yet! Gu Xiaomo hasn't come out either? There couldn't be some mechanism inside. Did they run away together?"

"It's been over for a few minutes, they must have run away!"

"What! Doesn't that mean we don't even have the chance to see it with our own eyes! Don't!"

It was windy and rainy outside, but Gu Cheng, who was already removing his makeup in the dressing room, was not happy.

He lied.

Pei Mingxu's suggestion actually made his heart flutter for a moment.

If he were in his previous life, he would be happy to agree.

After all, this choice was of no harm to him.

Totally altruistic.

But he still couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

There is always a voice telling him that he hates you and that he doesn't really like you. This may be another exchange of interests.

Now he just sees that you are useful and wants to test your attitude.

Once you are loose, you will not hesitate to exploit this weakness to drive you better.

Similar suspicions collapsed when Pei Mingxu bluntly apologized and looked at him with sincere eyes.

His Highness hates betrayal, but he can also give 100% trust to those he truly believes in.

This was how he treated himself in his previous life.

While standing firmly behind him to protect her, she allowed him to do whatever he wanted.

Undoubtedly, meeting such a monarch and partner is undoubtedly the luckiest thing.

But after all, he is not the same person in his previous life.

In this life, he received the wholehearted maternal love from Gu Pan, the brothers he had grown up with who could support him, and many like-minded friends.

His sense of security has long been without the need of a person or a position.

His choices are infinite, and he... can freely choose how he wants to live his life in the future.

Pei Mingxu did not attend this gathering, and even later, he never heard those meaningful jokes from Su Yu again.

They seemed to have become two parallel lines again, shining brightly at their respective heights.

Gu family.

Gu Cheng was packing his luggage, while Gu Pan was frowning and wandering around furiously.

"You have to bring this, you have to bring this, too. No, if you bring all these, your hometown won't be able to accommodate them."

Gu Cheng held a cross-stitch round fan in one hand and the frame of the landscape painting she painted in her spare time in the other, full of tangles.

Liu Qi took the picture frame and said with a smile: "You can bring them all. I bought three nearby buildings. If you want, you can open them up and build a small manor."

House prices in Blue Star are not expensive, and the public security has improved in recent years. Although the price has risen to about three million star coins, Gu Pan can still afford it.

After all, she is a woman who can just sit on the dividends and wait to die.

Speaking of which, Gu Cheng took the initiative to propose the plan to return home this time.

He said that the situation on Capital Star has stabilized. If possible, he would like to open a branch in his hometown, targeting the international market. He hopes to sell their games to the universe and beyond in his lifetime.

Gu Pan was naturally very supportive, but she happened to be a little homesick as well.

The current villa is too big. Although there are dedicated personnel who come to clean it regularly, it is still too empty.

In fact, it's pretty good even though it's small.

"Would that be troublesome?"

Liu Qi smiled: "No, we only need to knock down the other three buildings and rebuild a larger one. If mother agrees, we can start construction today. By the time we arrive at Blue Star, it will be almost completed."

"That's fine."

Gu Pan nodded in agreement, then looked left and right, and continued to rummage through the boxes.

upstairs.

Gu Cheng was packing the items he was going to take back when a large black book with a hard cover suddenly fell down from the bookshelf.

There was a loud snap.

Gu Cheng bent down and reached out to pick up the book. A dry and flat ginkgo leaf slipped out of the crack and fell lightly to the ground.

Gu Cheng leaned over again, pinched the branches of the ginkgo leaves and picked them up.

The windows were wide open and the sun was shining brightly outside.

When picking up the ginkgo leaves, light suddenly penetrated through the small holes, clearly illuminating the portraits on the leaves.

Gu Cheng was stunned for a moment, and his memory could not help but go back to that bleak autumn.

Gu Cheng, who has entered the second year of high school, just finished the three-thousand-meter long-distance run in the sports meeting and couldn't wait to run to the small house by the lake.

Without the slightest distinction between superiority and inferiority, Gu Cheng snatched the tea bowl from Pei Mingxu's hand and drank the tea that he had just cooled down.

"Why are you back so soon? Didn't you say you still want to cheer for your friends?"

Pei Mingxu poured another bowl and let it cool again.

Gu Cheng's back was soaked with sweat, he opened his clothes and was blowing in the wind by the window.

Hearing this, he tilted his head slightly and said vaguely: "I'm too tired."

The long and comfortable life made Gu Cheng more like a teenager at that time.

Also a lot more honest.

And how did Pei Mingxu react?

Gu Cheng recalled it carefully in his mind.

It seemed that after he finished his answer, an imperceptible chuckle sounded like a dream, and was drowned in the howling wind a moment later.

It's like an illusion, but it doesn't seem to be.

Gu Cheng felt that he was so crazy that he rejected him harshly, but now he still gets emotional over the situation.

Involuntarily recalling the past with him.

Gu Cheng clamped the ginkgo leaves back into the pages of the book and put the book back on the bookshelf.

Shelved.

Let these be placed where they should be.
