Leng Yuan told Gu Jiaojiao to continue eating. He was going outside to check.
But Gu Jiaojiao didn't. She put down her bowl and chopsticks, waiting for Leng Yuan to come back so they could eat together.
"Jiaojiao, come out here for a second."
Not long after Leng Yuan went outside, he called Gu Jiaojiao's name.
It was the first time Gu Jiaojiao had heard Leng Yuan call her so familiarly. Her heart gave a little flutter, and she walked outside.
At the doorway stood Zhao Tiezhu, holding a bag of pastries and a basket of eggs. Leng Yuan was standing beside him.
As Gu Jiaojiao walked over, Zhao Tiezhu held out the gifts to her. "Gu... Gu Zhiqing, I really have you to thank for what happened today. If it weren't for you, Xiuhua definitely would have lost the baby. This is just a small token of my appreciation."
