Chapter 67 Dad Becomes Big Brother
The shopkeeper solemnly promised Wei Dongning, "Understood, we will ensure that her every move is under our control!"
"Thank you for your hard work." Wei Dongning smiled at the shopkeeper.
This shopkeeper was promoted by Gu Peiyan herself, so she trusts him completely.
Wei Qiuci glanced upwards and said, "Since there's nothing else, I'll head back now."
"Alright, thank you for your hard work today, Second Sister. Without your help, I probably wouldn't have been able to argue with Miss Wen."
Wei Dongning grinned and gave Wei Qiuci an extremely sincere smile.
Wei Qiuci's head ached from seeing those two rows of pearly white teeth: "Stop pretending."
Wei Dongning didn't care at all about the barbed words in Wei Qiuci's words, and waved her hand, saying, "Take care, don't bother seeing me off."
Before Wei Dongning's smile could fade, Xiao Wu suddenly spoke up: "You really are the type to use someone and then discard them, without a shred of regret?"
"Do I have a good relationship with her?" Wei Dongning asked Xiao Wu the same question Gu Peiyan had just asked her.
Even if Xiao Wu is a very advanced system, it cannot decipher complex human emotions.
Her question immediately put him into deep thought.
Gu Peiyan looked at Wei Dongning, who was rubbing her cheeks, and tentatively asked, "It's rare that we both have time today, how about we go for a walk around the neighborhood?"
Before leaving home today, Wei Dongning put on the hairpin he had bought for her.
A sense of satisfaction welled up from the bottom of his heart.
Taking advantage of the opportunity to go out, he planned to buy her some more jewelry.
Girls should dress up beautifully.
"Okay."
Wei Dongning was unaware of Gu Peiyan's brainstorming session.
She's gotten tired of the meals she's had at home these past few days.
This is a good opportunity to get out and improve our meals.
And you don't even have to spend her money.
Kill two birds with one stone.
In a good mood, Wei Dongning took Gu Peiyan's hand, a rare occurrence for her: "Let's go, the sesame seed cakes on East Street are delicious, I've been craving them for so long!"
Gu Peiyan gently stroked Wei Dongning's hand twice, then turned to Qian Rong and instructed, "Qian Rong, you and Xiao Fu go back to the manor first. The young mistress and I will go for a stroll by ourselves."
"Yes, young master."
Qianrong glanced between them twice, giving them a "I understand" look.
Young Master just wanted a chance to be alone with Young Madam, he understood.
Xiao Fu wanted to stay with Wei Dongning, but Wei Dongning refused.
“We’re two grown men, we won’t get lost. You can go have some fun if you want, but remember to come back to the manor early.” Wei Dongning waved to Xiao Fu and pulled Gu Peiyan outside.
The shopkeeper watched their departing figures and clicked his tongue in admiration, "They really are a perfect match!"
There were many vendors selling things on East Street, but Wei Dongning didn't even glance at them and went straight to the sesame seed cake stall.
Since it wasn't lunchtime, there was practically no one queuing in front of the stall.
Wei Dongning was secretly delighted.
"Boss, two sesame cakes!" Wei Dongning's eyes lit up as she held up two fingers to the boss, then pointed to Gu Peiyan beside her: "He'll pay."
As Gu Peiyan paid, she couldn't wait and took a bite of the sesame seed cake: "Wow! It smells so good!"
"Don't stand here to eat, let's sit over there and eat slowly."
"Oh, it's okay."
Wei Dongning dodged Gu Peiyan's attempt to pull her away.
He happily continued walking forward, munching on his sesame seed cake.
The steam from the sesame seed cake continued to rise.
Wei Dongning swallowed what was in her mouth, tilted her head back, and exhaled a breath.
The two streams of heat continued to rise, intertwined, and finally disappeared together.
Gu Peiyan put the purse away and caught up with Wei Dongning in a few quick steps, her tone full of helplessness: "It's so cold outside, you'll get an upset stomach."
"There's no wind today, so there shouldn't be any major problems."
"Stubborn." Gu Peiyan took the other sesame seed cake from Wei Dongning: "I'll give you this one, you can eat it when you get home."
Wei Dongning pouted, looking aggrieved: "This is outrageous! I can't even eat something!"
Gu Peiyan's throat tightened at the sight of her little expression.
I almost gave in and returned the sesame seed cake to her.
Fortunately, a gust of cold wind blew by, clearing his mind.
Wei Dongning was a little unhappy that her honey trap hadn't worked.
However, my attention was quickly drawn to the trinkets being sold on the street.
Especially noticeable is the sugar figurine stand not far away.
Wei Dongning had eaten similar sugar paintings when she was very young in her previous life, but as she grew up, she rarely saw them being sold on the street anymore.
Wei Dongning grabbed Gu Peiyan's hand and shook it twice: "Gu Peiyan, I want that sugar figurine."
"I'll buy it for you, but you can't eat it on the street."
"Stop nagging, let's go!"
The uncle who makes sugar figurines is very skilled; the sugar figurines he makes are incredibly lifelike.
There were still people queuing ahead of them, so Wei Dongning pulled Gu Peiyan to sit on a small stool placed next to them and stared intently at the uncle's hand movements.
Like a primary school student listening attentively in class.
"Ningbao, Ningbao, I've discovered some really new gossip, do you want to hear it?"
"Aren't you going to go into seclusion to think things through?" Wei Dongning rested her chin on her hand and tilted her head. "Whose gossip is it? Wen Yuzhu's? She's already made a move?"
"No, it's about her, but she never left the restaurant."
"Then tell me."
"Wen Yuzhu's father is not her father."
Wei Dongning was taken aback: "Are you reciting a tongue twister?"
"No, I'm serious." Xiao Wu showed a more detailed report: "You asked me to check Wen Yuzhu's information before, and there's nothing wrong with that information. The problem is with her father. Her father isn't her biological father."
"You picked her up? We've raised her for so many years, so there's nothing wrong with calling her 'Dad'."
"No, it's not that. Oh, take a look."
Wei Dongning felt a headache coming on when she looked at this huge pile of documents, but she still patiently glanced at them.
There's no problem with Dr. Wen's identity.
Dr. Wen's resume is quite impressive.
Dr. Wen's family...
Hey?
and many more!
"The man I call 'Dad' is actually my older brother???" Wei Dongning stared wide-eyed in shock: "Am I seeing things?"
Wei Dongning was so shocked that she actually said the second half of the sentence aloud.
Hearing what she said, Gu Peiyan turned her head and asked softly, "What's wrong? Did you see something wrong?"
"It's nothing, I was just praising the uncle's skills, it looks so realistic!" Wei Dongning gave the uncle a thumbs up.
The uncle smiled shyly at the compliment: "What kind of sugar figurines would you two guests like?"
"Two different rabbits, right?" Wei Dongning asked Xiao Wu anxiously, randomly picking one.
"Little Five, can you explain the relationship between them to me? I think I don't know the words very well."
"Don't doubt your eyes. And guess why Dr. Wen didn't stop Wen Yuzhu from coming to the capital?"
Wei Dongning licked her dry lips: "To climb the social ladder?"
"No, it's about getting in touch with someone in the capital."
However, although it found out who this person was, the Supreme God forbade it to reveal it.
They say that the story that person was destined to experience hasn't happened yet.
I have no idea where this original world came from, or what kind of inexplicable plot it had.
It wanted to ask, but was kicked back by the Supreme God.
