Chapter 428: Why, Do You Find Me Too Old?

It was as though he could choke someone to death with just one sentence.

“You...”

Helian Man froze. She wanted to go on with her sentence, but seeing as an outsider was around, she couldn’t very well do so.

However, she had caught He Niancheng’s abnormal behavior earlier, the way he was glancing at Gu Qingjiu.

“What’s your relationship with that girl?”

Since Gu Qingjiu wasn’t deaf and even if she didn’t quite understand what they were talking about earlier, she felt kind of awkward after she was mentioned.

With her body stiffened, she didn’t know if she should continue to listen in on their conversation or not, for either way it didn’t seem right.

“Aunt, what kind of girl do you think gets to stay in the same room as me? Of course, she’s my girlfriend!” He Niancheng answered decisively.

Although the situation was unclear, Gu Qingjiu did feel secretly happy to hear the Chief Instructor admit to her being his girlfriend so readily in front of an elder.

A dazed look flashed across Helian Man’s eyes.

Although she had guessed as much, it was still rather shocking to hear it from the horse’s mouth.

This was the first time she heard of him having a girlfriend.

Moreover, he was confessing to it personally.

She immediately gave up on her nephew—who was difficult to talk to—and motioned for Gu Qingjiu to go over with a pleasant countenance. “Child, come over here.”

Gu Qingjiu was caught by surprise.

Alas, since an elder was asking her to go over, she couldn’t very well refuse.

Gu Qingjiu stood up from the chair and glanced at the Chief Instructor, before walking to Helian Man.

“Hi... how do you do?”

She was a little restrained, her nervous toes slightly curled up.

She originally wanted to pretend she was a stranger, but now that she had to face the Chief Instructor’s senior in the identity of his girlfriend, she naturally felt embarrassed.

“No need to be so nervous.”

Helian Man smiled at her. Some beauties could overthrow a kingdom with just a smile, and Helian Man was one such beauty.

She motioned for Gu Qingjiu to sit down before her, then held Gu Qingjiu’s wrist. As an ordinary senior would, she gently asked, “What’s your name?”

“Gu Qingjiu.”

She felt rather uneasy to have her wrist held by a stranger like this.

But perhaps because this person was He Niancheng’s aunt, she didn’t much resist it.

Her hands weren’t rough like one would expect of someone advanced in age; instead, they remained soft and delicate.

“How old are you?”

That seems like a question that every senior would ask. Gu Qingjiu replied with a hint of sheepishness, “18.”

“So young.”

Helian Man sighed with emotion as she said, “Niancheng is already 25.”

“...”

“...”

An eerie silence fell over them.

Only then did Gu Qingjiu find out that He Niancheng was already 25. She looked towards him with astonishment. “Chief Instructor, you’re 25 already?”

Her words seemed to deeply prick at the heart of an elder youth.

Even though this older youth was ridiculously outstanding, there would be plenty of women throwing themselves at him even if he were over the age of thirty.

But now, facing his young girlfriend, he felt a sense of unease for some reason. With his face tensed, he got to his feet and narrowed his eyes at Gu Qingjiu. “Why, do you find me too old?”

Helian Man was stunned.

Was this nephew of hers worrying?

He was actually worried about being too old?

My goodness.

She really ought to film this scene and show it to her older brother, to let him know that his youngest son actually had such a side to him.

She then looked towards Gu Qingjiu, who replied with a broad grin. “How could I find you too old!”
