Chapter 8 Marriage Certificate 5_1

After opening the left car door for Luo Qingli to get inside, Gu Yuying went around to the other side to open his own door.

"Uncle, are you officially my husband from today forward? Should I start calling you 'hubby'?"

Luo Qingli puckered her lips, pondering the feasibility of this new term. After some thought, she decided it wasn't quite right and tossed the question back at Gu Yuying.

Gu Yuying's rosy lips parted to throw Luo Qingli two words, "Whatever you want!"

"I'll call you hubby." Luo Qingli was a naturally sociable person, treating Gu Yuying warmly regardless of his stern face or coldness.

"Hubby!" Luo Qingli called out with her distinct high pitched voice – sweet but not overly so, charming but not bewitching.

Her eyes naturally lifted when she smiled; her already fox-like eyes became even more enchanting.

The call of "hubby" caused a slight flutter in Gu Yuying's heart.

With a lingering glance at Luo Qingli, Gu Yuying responded for some unknown reason, "Yes!"

"Hehe…" Gu Yuying didn't reject her, which brought Luo Qingli immense joy all by herself.

What had made her so joyous, she couldn't quite understand.

Gu Yuying just lightly raised an eyebrow before quickly resigning himself to it.

It must simply be his cheerful little wife's nature!

Later, Gu Yuying would come to realize, 'cheerful' didn't even begin to describe his wife.

"What kind of food do you like?" Gu Yuying asked.

Though he was the host, it was still considered polite to inquire about the other person's preferences.

"Anything is fine, as long as it's spicy." She loved items like spicy hot pot the most.

But she wasn't picky, she would eat anything else as long as it included meat.

"..." What Gu Yuying meant by 'what kind of food' was actually referring to French cuisine, Italian dishes, Japanese food, or Korean cuisine.

Not the kind of flavors Luo Qingli was referring to.

However, now that Luo Qingli mentioned it, Gu Yuying knew exactly where to take her for dinner.

"We've arrived. Let's get out." Gu Yuying parked the car in front of a restaurant with classical features.

A sign hung over the entrance, bearing four large characters: Gathering Hall.

The strong and energetic calligraphy indicated it was likely the work of a calligraphy artist.

"Alright!" Luo Qingli opened the car door, but was pulled back before she could get out.

"Fool, your seat belt isn't fully undone." Although he spoke in such a way, Gu Yuying leaned over to personally undo Luo Qingli's seatbelt.

This close physical contact made Luo Qingli's heart thump wildly.

With her lips slightly parted, her warm breath brushed against Gu Yuying's face, tickling him.

Gu Yuying was also slightly abashed. When he pulled back his body, his arm accidentally brushed past Luo Qingli's chest.

There was a brief awkward silence; the strong-willed Gu Yuying quickly recovered, his handsome face chilling again.

He indifferently said, "Get out of the car."

"Oh!" After getting out of the car, Luo Qingli took a deep breath.

"Hubby, I think I'll just call you uncle! Somehow, calling you hubby feels weird. Yep! It's decided just like that."

Luo Qingli made the decision unilaterally, without waiting for Gu Yuying's opinion.

"..." Happy? He didn't feel it.

Not happy at all.

"Gathering Hall?" Luo Qingli only now noticed where they had arrived.

Wow! This place was known to be extremely expensive, not somewhere mere commoners can afford.
