Gu Xiaoqi took it, and her fingers trembled as she opened the red book. On the first page, her name was shockingly written on it.

Housekeeper Mu Liancheng, Male, Ethnic, Unmarried...

Flipping to the second page, her information was displayed.

Gu Xiaoqi, female, national, unmarried …

Gu Xiaoqi looked at the words on it in shock. She and Mu Liancheng actually appeared in the same account book, and their relationship was blank.

"Ninth Master, this …"

Mu Liancheng had prepared for this matter for a long time. From the moment the Gu family chased Xiao Qi out of their home, they were not worthy to be Xiao Qi's family.

"Xiao Qi, I'll be your family from now on." Not a boyfriend, not a lover, but a family.

To Gu Xiaoqi, these two words were far more moving than any love words.

"Family, I already have a family." Tears of joy washed over Xiao Qi's face. She held the household book in her hands and pressed it against her chest.

When she found out that she was not the daughter of the Gu family, Gu Xiaoqi was at a loss.

After living for more than ten years, she suddenly lost everything. Her parents had nothing to do with her, her brother had disappeared, she had no family or friends, and she was like a duckweed, not knowing where she would return to.

It was the man before her who gave her a home.

From now on, she had a family. When she was sad, there was someone she could pour out her heart to. When she was happy, there was someone she could share. When she encountered a setback, there was someone she could help her with. It was just that … Where did this world come from?

Gu Xiaoqi withdrew the joy in her heart, and asked in a bitter voice: "Ninth Master, what do you need me to do?"

Mu Liancheng did not deny that he had other motives, he tapped on the table lightly with his fingers, stared at Gu Xiaoqi and said: "Stay by my side, be obedient."

Gu Xiaoqi used her fingers to hold onto the account book tightly and answered seriously, "Ok."

"Xiao Qi, be good." Mu Liancheng pinched Xiao Qi's face as if she was coaxing a child.

After gracefully cutting the steak, Mu Liancheng said seemingly unintentionally: "Xiao Qi, if you want to go out with your friends in the future, you can tell me directly." After placing the sliced steak in front of Xiao Qi, Mu Liancheng continued, "I definitely won't agree to it."

Xiao Qi was already accustomed to a man's capriciousness, she knew that if she resisted, she would get to suppress him even more brutally, so Gu Xiaoqi nodded her head obediently, "Ninth Master, I will not tell you."

Being returned back to normal by the girl, Mu Liancheng decided to stop hinting and directly said: "You are not to meet Jian Yan again in the future."

"When did I …" Gu Xiaoqi subconsciously wanted to retort, but halfway through her words, she suddenly remembered the last time she met him at the amusement park.

"Ninth Master, how did you know that I met Jian Yan?"

Mu Liancheng did not want to hide it, so he took out his phone, took out the two photos, and placed them in front of Xiao Qi.

"This is!" The more Gu Xiaoqi looked, the angrier she got. That day, she was clearly arguing with Jian Yan, but why was it that when she looked at the photo, if she was not the person involved, she almost thought that the person in the photo was a couple!

After reading the photo openly, Gu Xiaoqi did not explain and directly dialed the number to send the photo.

"Ninth Master?" A surprised female voice was heard from the other end of the phone.

Gu Xiaoqi instantly recognized the owner of the voice. It was indeed her, Gu Jiabao!

Taking out a piece of paper from the side, Gu Xiaoqi quickly wrote a line of words and passed it to Mu Liancheng.

Mu Liancheng didn't know why, but he still cooperated and asked, "What exactly did Gu Xiaoqi and Jian Yan do that day?"

Although the man's voice was ice cold, Gu Jiabao still felt happy. She hesitantly replied: "Ninth Master, I, I don't want to speak ill of Qi Qi behind her back, but I can't bear to see you being kept in the dark."

After making a pile of bedding, just as Mu Liancheng was about to hang up impatiently, Gu Jiabao finally got back to the main topic, "Ninth Master, I saw Qi Qi and Jian Yan meet up at the amusement park. They were hugging and, they even kissed. After I asked Qi Qi, she said that she and Jian Yan wanted to elope! "

Just like that, a large hat that had run away was pushed onto Gu Xiaoqi's head. Xiao Qi was so angry that she almost died, and she wrote a few sentences.

Mu Liancheng replied according to the content above: "When will it be?!"

"This month's 30th!" Gu Jiabao said sincerely.

The more determined she was, the more Gu Xiaoqi suspected her. She slowly woke up from her anger and signaled Mu Liancheng to hang up.

Gu Xiaoqi propped her chin up and unconsciously drew on the paper.

"What's wrong?" Mu Liancheng asked.

Xiao Qi regained her senses, and explained: "Ninth Master, I swear I will never elope with Jian Yan! It's just that I'm very curious as to why Gu Jiabao is so sure that Number Thirty is going to leave. "

"What's wrong?"

The 30th. It's a simple birthday." Gu Xiao Qi's expression was a little disappointed. Once upon a time, Jane's birthday was a big deal for her. She would book hotels and cakes a month in advance and then find a group of friends to plan Jane's birthday party. "But how did Gu Jiabao find out?

Mu Liancheng raised his brows, and his tone carried jealousy that was not even in his ears, "You should remember Jian Yan's birthday well."

"I also remember your birthday!" Gu Xiaoqi didn't even think before blurting out, and in the end, she quietly muttered, "I even prepared a present for you."

The atmosphere suddenly became cold. Mu Liancheng tried his best to think back, but it seemed that his birthday hadn't passed in twenty years.

Because no one wanted to remember that painful day. Even he himself had selectively forgotten about it.

However, Mu Liancheng was more concerned with Gu Xiaoqi's last sentence, "You have something to give me?"

"No!" Xiao Qi said angrily.

Thinking about that night a few days ago, the expression on Mu Liancheng's face became even softer. He stretched out his hand and spread it open, "Xiao Qi, this is my present."

Unwillingly taking out that bracelet from her pocket, Gu Xiaoqi tried her best to make a relaxed expression, "It's not something valuable, and it was even broken by you. Wait until I earn a lot of money to buy you something even better!"

Without waiting for Gu Xiaoqi to retract her hand, Mu Liancheng quickly pulled away the bracelet. He placed the chain on his palm and observed it carefully.

The silver plum blossom chain was extremely exquisite. There was even a small pendant hanging on it that looked like a number seven.

"Seven?" Mu Liancheng played with the chain, raising his eyebrows he looked at Gu Xiaoqi.

Xiao Qi's face turned red. She didn't think too much into it when she bought it, because it was her favorite number seven, so she chose this one. He ignored the words in her name, as if she was giving him to Mu Liancheng.

"Thank you, I like it." Mu Liancheng took off the jade pendant on his wrist that was worth thousands of gold and placed it on Gu Xiaoqi's hand.

"No, no need." Xiao Qi wanted to retract her hand, she did not want to receive such an expensive gift. Although she was eating Mu Liancheng's, drinking Mu Liancheng's, and sleeping on his bed were all Mu Liancheng's, she still awkwardly did not want to accept it.

Mu Liancheng did not give Gu Xiaoqi a chance to retaliate, and said with a dull tone: "Xiao Qi, this bracelet was bought from overseas, it's worth thirty million, you need to be careful and protect it."

Gu Xiaoqi asked. "Can I reject it?"

"Xiao Qi, don't have any burdens in your heart. I'm encouraging you to work hard to earn money. You have to do your best." Mu Liancheng was not suitable to joke around. His cold tone sounded like he was showing off, but it also sounded like a threat.

Xiao Qi wanted to cry but had no tears. Rich people were really annoying!
