Chapter 169: You’re the Chubby Guy

Since Xiao Huahua didn’t report anything out of the ordinary, Jiang Tingxu put her suspicions out of mind and fixed herself a simple breakfast.

Since the little guy wasn’t around, she didn’t have to make anything too fancy.

As she stepped out of her residence, she saw the door across the hall and suddenly remembered something.

Her beautiful eyebrows slightly furrowed, and her expression didn’t look as pleasant as before.

How could it be pleasant?

She glared at the door for a long time before entering the elevator.

Give her a break.

The person whom she thought she had removed herself from ended up living right across the hall. This is even more dramatic than the TV series.

Fortunately, the fact that that very same man sneaked into her bed last night remained unknown to her. Otherwise...

Jiang Tingxu gritted her teeth all the way until she reached the hospital. Only then did she forcefully calm herself down.

In the parking lot.

Jiang Tingxu had just gotten out of the car when she saw two people coming out of the elevator.

“Good Morning, director Pei.” She greeted.

Pei Rusi was talking to the man beside him. He looked into Jiang Tingxu’s direction when he heard her greeting.

“Oh, Dr. Jiang. Good morning.”

Jiang Tingxu did not know the man who was with Pei Rusi. She nodded at him and was going to leave.

However, when Jiang Tingxu passed by the two, the man suddenly said,

“Dr. Jiang?”

Jiang Tingxu stopped.

“Yes, that’s me. Is there anything I can help you with?” She asked.

The man’s mouth twitched. His expression was ambiguous.

“You don’t remember me?” He asked.

When Jiang Tingxu heard this, she raised her head and looked at the man carefully. She shook her head.

In fact, she was also very confused. Who was this person?

Could it be that he really knew Jiang Tingxu?

But why didn’t she have the slightest impression of this person in her memory?

Cough.

The man coughed a few times. He did not expect Jiang Tingxu to not have remembered him at all. He could not accept it.

At this moment, Pei Rusi also looked at his good friend beside him.

“Ah Chen, are you sure you know Dr. Jiang?”

Could he have mistaken her for someone else?

The man sighed and looked at Jiang Tingxu with a mournful gaze.

“I am Gu Yichen, Gu Ranzhi’s cousin!”

Huh?

Gu Yichen?

This name sounded familiar. Along with it, she finally recalled memories from many years ago.

“Ah! Are you the chubby guy from back then?”

When he heard “chubby guy,” Gu Yichen almost jumped.

“What do you mean chubby guy? That’s baby fat, baby fat!”

Jiang Tingxu pursed his lips and said softly,

“No baby weighs more than a hundred pounds.”

Note that Gu Yichen was only eight or nine years old at the time. and he was short, with a height of a five or six-year-old.

However, Jiang Tingxu did not expect the chubby guy from back then to grow up to a handsome and tall man.

Well, he inherited the Gu family’s genes after all.

Gu Yichen was so angry that he wanted to punch someone, but he didn’t dare to. If he really touched her, his cousin would definitely not let him off.

“You, you, you... I’m magnanimous, so I won’t argue with a little girl like you!”

She was indeed just a little girl back then.

After they teased each other for a while, Jiang Tingxu asked with seriousness,

“Why are you here? You and director Pei?”

Pei Rusi did not expect that his good friend and colleague actually knew each other. He replied,

“Ah Chen and I are friends!”

Gu Yichen nodded, agreeing with Pei Rusi’s words. Then, he said,

“I’m here to look for my aunt.”

After revealing his identity, the air was cleared.

“Auntie Wen should be at work now. But if you need to speak to her, you’ll have to wait until after her shift.”
