?488: Chapter 488 Children Can’t Drink Alcohol (Supplement) 488: Chapter 488 Children Can’t Drink Alcohol (Supplement) Gu Zhiqi followed the Gu family members into the banquet hall, and soon after their arrival, the Gu family’s three sons were surrounded by business associates, leaving Gu Zhiqi separated from her mother and sisters.
Yu Shuling, dragging Gu Xiyue and Gu Zhiqi along, said they were going to recognize some people.
After recognizing a couple of individuals, Yu Shuling was pulled away to chat by her group of best friends.
Yu Shuling also wanted to sit with Gu Xiyue and Gu Zhiqi at the same table as some wealthydies, but Gu Xiyue slipped away, and Gu Zhiqi found an excuse to look for Lu Xingzhe and escaped as well.
After slipping away from Yu Shuling, Gu Zhiqi didn’t immediately go to find Lu Xingzhe but picked up a te of small cakes and sat down at a random spot.
Not in a rush to eat the cakes, she first took out her phone and sent a message to Lu Xingzhe.
After sending the message and setting the phone aside, she then started to focus on eating her cakes.
As Gu Zhiqi was intently eating, a deep and gentle voice suddenly sounded next to her ear, “Would you like a ss of juice?”
The voice felt somewhat unfamiliar, yet somewhat familiar.
Gu Zhiqi instinctively looked up to see who was speaking.
She saw a tall figure in a white shirt and ck vest, with a Bluetooth earpiece hanging from an ear, holding a tray with a ss on it, standing in front of her.
The voice was familiar, the build was familiar, the peach blossom eyes were familiar, but the face was not.
The originally stunningly handsome face had now be quite ordinary.
Confronted with the unfamiliar face, Gu Zhiqi was momentarily stunned and instinctively asked, “Did you have a botched stic surgery?”
Only after she had asked did Gu Zhiqi btedly remember that they had just met the day before yesterday.
It probably wasn’t a stic surgery failure but perhaps…
a disguise?
Su Yunling “…”
Hearing Gu Zhiqi’s question, the corners of Su Yunling’s mouth twitched almost imperceptibly, somewhat at a loss for words.
But…
had she been recognized?
He thought he had disguised himself quite well, even deliberately changing his voice and demeanor.
How had he been recognized at just one nce?
“Do you recognize me?” Su Yunling decided to probe further.
Inwardly he pondered, maybe he just happened to disguise himself as someone she knew?
Seeing Su Yunling’s question, Gu Zhiqi propped her chin, looking at him with anguid expression and gently shaking her head while adding, “Oh, I mistook you for someone else.”
Su Yunling paused upon hearing this.
He stared at Gu Zhiqi for a few seconds, almost getting lost in those deep and hazy eyes, but couldn’t make anything else out.
He inwardly clicked his tongue, unsure whether to be pleased that his disguise was sessful or regretful that the child hadn’t recognized him.
He straightened his expression, looking at Gu Zhiqi again, and asked, “Would you like some juice?”
Gu Zhiqi shook her head, then raised her hand to point at a ss of red wine on Su Yunling’s tray, “I want that one.”
There was no alcohol on Aquamarine Star, and sinceing to this world, she had seen alcohol but never up close like this.
She had never tasted wine before.
“Children shouldn’t drink alcohol.” Su Yunling didn’t give Gu Zhiqi the wine but instead picked up a ss of juice to hand to her.
Gu Zhiqi didn’t take it, propping her chinzily with one hand, elbow resting on the table, eyes half-closed in indolence, she looked disinterestedly at Su Yunling, “Brother doesn’t even know my age, how can you be sure that I’m a child?”
With a slight raise of his eyebrows, Su Yunling ignored her question and instead retorted, “You call me brother upon our first meeting?”
Gu Zhiqi bent her lips into azy smile as she replied nonchntly, “I could call you uncle if you prefer.”
Su Yunling “…”
“Uncle, please give me a ss of this.” Gu Zhiqi smiledzily and cutely, raising her hand to point at the wine on the tray.
