99. Feel Flattered

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

“Brother Ziming?” Looking at Gu Ziming, who was standing at the door with a slight smile and was obviously preparing to unlock the door, Ling Fan was slightly surprised.

Speaking of which, it was no strange that Gu Zi would have the keys of his house. Before, they were neighbors. Usually, they weren’t so close to each other, but they’d see each other almost every day. And Gu Ziming was the only one who had paid attention to him and played with him when he was little. Because his unreliable mother often went out with her boyfriends at night, so she simply gave Gu Ziming the keys and asked him take care of Ling Fan in case he got starved to death…

Later, Gu Ziming moved away, and Ling Fan also didn’t take it to his heart. As for the door lock…his family was so poor and blank, let alone people like Gu Ziming, even if a thief came to steal their belongings, he would only leave empty-handed…

“Come on, it’s not the first time we met. You don’t have to be so surprised when you see me, Fan, right?” Seeing Ling Fan looking at him with a blank face, Gu Ziming smiled and teased.

“Haha, no, I just feel a little unexpected,” Ling Fan smiled.

For Gu Ziming’s visit, he was indeed a little surprised. Although Gu Ziming had come once last time, in his opinion, Gu Zi just came over to take a look, but he never expected that he’d come again.

Of course, more importantly, he originally planned to go out…

“What’s so unexpected? I usually got nothing to do on Saturday, and isn’t it a normal that I come over and care about you? Gu Ziming blinked at Ling Fan and said, “What? Are you going out?”

“Mm,” Ling Fan replied but nothing else.

“Then…I didn’t delay you, did I?”

“No, it’s not something important,” Ling Fan smiled.

Not important?

How could something like getting a wife not important?

However, after being interrupted by Gu Ziming, Ling Fan felt that it may be a little impulsive if just went over like that now.

Therefore, it was best he should have a plan.

Ling Fan thought to himself.

However, he did not know that someone far away from Chu Group only wished he could be more impulsive.

Hearing Ling Fan’s words, Gu Ziming wore a gentle smile again, “It’s good that I didn’t delay you. I bring you some food, it’s all your favorite food. What? Don’t you welcome me in?”

“Ahem, no, come on in.” Facing Gu Ziming’s pretending accusation, Ling Fan made a few dry coughs, then took a step back and made a please gesture.

For Gu Ziming, this big brother who had always treated him well and gave him warmth in his past life, Ling Fan actually felt very grateful in his heart, and of course, how could he not be welcomed here?

Although there was one thing that Ling Fan couldn’t figure out…

Although Gu Ziming was good to him, but…wasn’t it too much?

One need to know, in the last life, after Gu Ziming moved away, the two of them only met each other in a hurry for once after he was hit by the car and sent to the hospital…

Although, because in this life, since he had a fight with others, got into hospital and Gu Ziming to help get some inspection reports, the two of them had much more connections, but didn’t he care about him too much…

Although he still couldn’t figure it out, it did not influence Ling Fan’s attitude towards Gu Ziming.

After all, having someone to care about him was actually not bad, right?

Originally, the main reason they had few connections was that he was self-abased and didn’t dare to ask him for help, in addition, he had all focused on how to admire Luo Li. And, the other side was so busy, and of course, it was impossible to care about him…

And…Gu Ziming was not a person that you would hate even if you wanted to.

“So? Last time in your home…is your friend not here? “Gu Ziming adroitly took the lunch box into the kitchen, glanced around the room and asked.

“Hmm, he has left.” replied Ling Fan, his eyes darkened.

However…he would bring him back soon.

Should he change into a decent house by then?

Ling Fan thought in his heart.

Actually he didn’t lack of money, the reason he didn’t move away, first of all, he was used to living here and didn’t find it small or what, secondly, his current identity was an ordinary high school student who managed to maintain his existence using the money his mother gave him every month. If he really changed into a huge house, it would be hard for people not to doubt it…

“Oh… I even specially prepared lunch for three people…” Gu Ziming said casually.

“But, in that case, Fan, you eat two shares.” Gu Zi looked at Ling Fan and said with a smile, after a little pause, he continued, “You must finish it all.”

“Uhh, okay…” Ling Fan said, stunned.

As for what made him stunned, it was not that Gu Ziming asked him to eat two shares, but the way Gu Ziming talked…

How come he didn’t notice that in addition to being gentle, Gu Ziming would be so…uh, active?

“Ahem, I’ll go get the plates,” said Ling Fan with a dry cough.

“Wait, leave it to me, but you can help me clean up the table.” Gu Ziming smiled at Ling Fan and said.

Uh…why did he feel that Gu Ziming was more like the owner of this family while he was a guest?

Ling Fan secretly complained in his heart, but… still cleaned up the table as Gu Ziming’s instruction.

Originally, Ling Fan thought that Gu Ziming would leave after they ate the food, but it seemed that Gu Ziming had no intention to leave at all…

“Uh, well, Brother Ziming, don’t bother,” Ling Fan said awkwardly when he saw that Gu Ziming was going to clean up the house for him.

To be honest, Gu Ziming’s actions made him somewhat flattered…

But more ‘scared’…

He had done this occasionally since Lin Fan’s mother had entrusted him to him, but…that was already long ago, did he still take him as that little child who could barely take care of himself?

Ahem, though…before his rebirth, he was quite disabled in many aspects.

Compared with Ling Fan’s embarrassment, Gu Ziming looked obviously much more natural.

“What? A re you worried that I can’t do it well?” Gu Ziming raised his eyebrows and smiled.

“No, it’s just…I guess you should be quite busy.”

“Hmm, I am busy, but I am on leave today.” Gu Ziming said with a blink, then turned around and planned to help Ling Fan clean up the wardrobe first.

However, the moment he opened the wardrobe, Gu Ziming suddenly froze.

Originally, he thought that if as a high school student, Ling Fan’s wardrobe would be very messy, and he wanted to help him clean it up.

However, what he didn’t expect was that Ling Fan’s wardrobe wasn’t messy at all. Not only was it not messy, it should be said to be very neat, even more organized than his own.

“Do you clean up your wardrobe yourself?” Gu Ziming looked at Ling Fan and asked, his tone with some surprise.

“No…It’s Chu, ahem, a friend did it for me…”

Those were all done by Chu Xiao before.

Probably because Chu Xiao broke through his mental defense after washing his clothes for him for the first time, or he should thank him for helping him wash his underwear for the first time… Anyway, after that, his clothes were always washed by Chu Xiao ‘by the way’, and then Chu Xiao cleaned up his wardrobe for him ‘by the way’.

Mm, at that time, it should be said that they shared one wardrobe.

If it were him, he just needed to wash the clothes clean and stuff them in. It was really impossible to be so like a woman…ahem, so exquisite.

However…

Speaking of which, Chu Xiao, the underground emperor of the N City, could help him wash his clothes. This kind of thing was really a fantasy ah.

However, no matter how illusionary it was, wasn’t it something that had really happened?

Could this be understood as Chu Xiao treated him very well?

Thinking of this possibility, Ling Fan suddenly smiled.

“What are you thinking about? You look quite in the mood.” Gu Ziming, who noticed that Ling Fan was suddenly distracted, asked, and at the same time, some suspicious light flashed across his eyes.

“Are you thinking about your friend?” Without waiting for Ling Fan to answer, Gu Ziming asked again.

Although he had met him unexpectedly last time, he could clearly feel that the other side was not simple.

But…How did Xiao Fan know such…a friend…

Also, what kind of relationship did they have?

“Yeah.” Just as Gu Zi thought about it, Ling Fan curved his mouth and responded without hiding anything.

Gu Ziming…was someone he can trust to a certain extent.

However, Ling Fan did not notice that the instant he heard his answer, Gu Ziming’s face instantly stiffened and he had obvious disbelief in his eyes.

“Hehe.” After about ten seconds, Gu Ziming smiled and looked at Ling Fan again, “You just mention he is your friend in front of me. Aren’t you afraid of me being jealous?”

Obviously, Ling Fan did not notice that the other side was testing him, when he heard the question, Ling Fan suddenly widened his eyes.

“Brother Ziming, what did you just say?” Ling Fan suddenly asked.

Looking at Ling Fan’s, Gu Ziming rolled his eyes.

“Haha, look at your serious appearance, I’m joking.” Gu Ziming smiled, slightly turned his eyes away, and said in a very relaxed tone.

But… what he didn’t know was that what Ling Fan was concerned about wasn’t what he said.

But the word ‘jealous’.
