Chapter 627: Got Scolded
“Qingjiu... is Qingjiu back?”
Qi Yuefeng’s voice rang from the side. Gu Qingjiu replied with her lips curled. “Mm, I’m back. Where are you guys? I’m outside our house with no keys, and I can’t enter.”
“Ah, we’re in a mall right now and won’t be coming back for dinner. Your Young Uncle and his family are also back. Qingjiu, take a cab to where we are. I’ll give you the address.”
Gu Qingjiu responded with an “Mm” to Qin Wange’s words. After getting the address from her, she hung up the call.
After some consideration, Gu Qingjiu placed her luggage outside their door.
In any case, there were only a few pieces of clothes inside.
She had left valuable belongings like her laptop in the school’s Shooting Department and didn’t bring those back.
When she went downstairs, Chen Yanhong, who was arranging the merchandise...
...looked like she had just seen a ghost when she saw Gu Qingjiu coming down. She hurriedly averted Gu Qingjiu’s gaze and pretended to count the inventory and hadn’t noticed her.
Gu Qingjiu went out the door without even casting a glance in her direction.
Only after Gu Qingjiu left did Chen Yanhong heave a sigh of relief.
‘I wonder why this darned girl is getting more and more annoying.’
But while she was annoying, she also struck fear in her.
Why hadn’t she felt this way before?
*
Gu Qingjiu headed to the mall according to the address Qin Wange gave her.
Gu Qingjiu wasn’t concerned about all this. The crux was that Young Uncle and his family are back as well.
This Young Uncle had emigrated overseas, and it was rare for him to come back. She wondered how he had changed after all these years.
Gu Qingjiu couldn’t even remember when was the last time she saw him.
It seemed like Young Uncle had married an American, and together they had a pair of mixed-blood twins.
Other than that, Gu Qingjiu knew nothing about him.
Gu Qingjiu felt a sense of anticipation towards this Young Uncle and his family.
Although she was an aloof person, she liked a bustling and lively atmosphere at home.
When she reached the mall, Qin Wange and the rest were waiting for Gu Qingjiu in a Starbucks cafe.
She was too eye-catching, exuding a noble and refreshing air like a lily flower amidst the crowd. Wherever she went, she was the center of attention.
Gu Qingjiu didn’t even notice her own older brother.
Qin Wange and Gu Qingmo were intimately conversing with their heads lowered and hadn’t noticed Gu Qingjiu’s arrival.
Qin Wange was the first to turn her head over. When she saw Gu Qingjiu, her gorgeous smile instantly transformed into disbelief.
She pulled Gu Qingmo and said something, and the latter raised his head as well. His countenance also changed.
Before Gu Qingjiu entered the cafe, Gu Qingmo and Qin Wange came out from inside.
“Gu Qingjiu, what happened to your arm?”
Gu Qingmo sounded panicked and a tad fierce.
The way his younger sister had her arm wrapped in a cast was way too striking
Gu Qingjiu was still fine when she left. Why did she suddenly become a ‘semi-cripple’?
It was inevitable for Gu Qingmo, who didn’t know the details, to feel worried.
Gu Qingjiu, who had known she would have to undergo interrogation, immediately regurgitated the story she had prepared in advance. “I accidentally fell and hurt myself when I was out with my friends, climbing a tree. It’s nothing serious...”
“Climb a tree? How old are you already? Can’t you behave like a girl? What’s Mom going to say when she sees this later? You’re going to give her such a scare!”
When Gu Qingmo heard that it was nothing serious, he felt slightly relieved, but at the same time, he started scolding her.
This was how family members behave around each other.
Knowing that she was in the wrong, Gu Qingjiu kept silent as she received the scolding.
