Chapter 95 I came to see you
The happy birthday party ended in a bad way because of Jiang Lingyan's departure.

Jiang Yaoyao's eyes were red and she cried and called her elder brother, wanting him to come back.

It’s a pity that only a word of apology is left and nothing else.

The farce in the villa did not affect Jiang Shu's sleep, and she slept until dawn.

When she went downstairs for breakfast in the morning, Aunt Wang took out a gift box and handed it to her.

The box is so big that it feels like a person can fit inside.

Aunt Wang said that this was a gift specially chosen for her by her mother. She came back too late last night and saw that she had fallen asleep, so she didn't disturb her. When she left in the morning, she saw that she was still asleep, so she gave it to her for temporary safekeeping.

Jiang Shu carefully opened the box and found that inside was a cross-stitch painting that was more than ten meters long. It was a picture of birds paying homage to the phoenix, which was exquisite and beautiful.

There was also a letter inside.

"I am writing to you: Happy birthday, baby. You have suffered so much over the years. It's because I didn't protect you well and I was too cowardly. This is the coming-of-age gift I have been preparing for seven or eight years. I hope that from today on, baby, you can have a brand new life..."

It turned out that her mother had started preparing for her coming-of-age ceremony a long time ago.

Although he still had many complaints about his mother in his heart, Jiang Shu was quite touched when he looked at the cross-stitch that was more than ten meters long and was sewn stitch by stitch.

Afraid that calling would affect her mother's work, she couldn't help but send her a text message.

"Thanks, Mom. I love your birthday present."

Jiang's mother replied almost immediately, "Baby, as long as you like it, I'm glad. Once I win this competition, you can do whatever you want in the future. I'll support you!"

"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mom."

Jiang Shu was right. His mother was indeed in a business competition with his father. Whoever won would take charge of the family.

She walked out of Jiang's house. The fresh morning air was filled with the scent of fresh grass and flowers. The sound of cicadas could be heard in the distance, and the breeze gently caressed her cheeks.

The sky is blue, the clouds are white, and the sunlight shines through the leaves onto the ground, casting mottled light and shadows, giving people a sense of a new beginning and hope.

In the distance, the man's voice carried a hint of coolness that relieved the summer heat.

"Jiang Shu."

"Gu Qingpei?"

"Ah."

The slender figure was getting closer and closer. It was Gu Qingpei, the genius spiritualist who had not been seen for a long time.

"What a coincidence! Are you coming to Jiang City for another mission?"

Jiang Shu thought that another alien species had come to them. This time he was not afraid at all. Instead, he was eager to try.

"No."

Gu Qingpei's eyes were dark, and he hesitated for two seconds before saying, "I'm here to see you."

"Look at me?"

Jiang Shu tilted his head and asked in confusion: "What's so good about me?"

He pulled the corner of his lip, and I didn't know what it meant, but it wasn't a smile.

When he came to her side, he handed her a beautiful crystal and said, "A belated birthday present. Happy birthday to you yesterday."

Jiang Shu was surprised that he knew her birthday, but she thought he was joking when he said he came to see her specially.

She took it solemnly, "Thank you, Teacher Gu."

"Teacher Gu?"

Gu Qing Pei seemed not very satisfied with this title. He coughed lightly, and the cold corners of his eyes slightly raised, "It's only temporary."

Jiang Shu put away the crystal stone and said, "That will take at least two months!"

Gu Qingpei: "..."

He didn't know why he started to worry about the address issue. He just remembered that day when he saw Jiang Shu in the rain, like a fairy savior.

At this moment, I feel ashamed to call him teacher.

Seeing that he was silent, Jiang Shu suggested, "Let's go for a walk together."

She took the initiative to invite him, but Gu Qing Pei refused disrespectfully. "Okay."

He responded in a gentle voice.

Jiang Shu's appearance is not bright, and she didn't wear any makeup today, but she is still eye-catchingly beautiful. Her delicate facial features make her look flawless.

In the sunlight, her fair face seemed to be covered with a soft luster.

It's not like Gu Qing Pei hasn't seen beautiful girls before, but there is nothing like Jiang Shu who is so pretty and mysterious.

"How was your birthday yesterday?"

It was rare for Gu Qing Pei to take the initiative to find topics to chat with others. If the chatterbox Shen Linhui saw this, he would definitely be scared and scream.

"It's good. I'm very happy."

Jiang Shu narrowed his eyes. "Two of my good friends gave me fireworks, another friend gave me my favorite orange-flavored cake, and my mother also gave me something very precious. They all care about me very much."

It feels so good to be loved, she is really happy.

Without hearing her mention her five brothers, Gu Qing Pei immediately thought of the brother who had abandoned her alone in the suburbs.

"I can help you beat them up."

"No need for that. When I break through to Grandmaster, I will throw them all into the small dark room and beat them up one by one."

"Come on, I can help close the door then."

"it is good!"

They didn't mention anyone by name, but they all knew who they were talking about.

Gu Qing Pei turned his head and his eyes met hers, and they smiled at each other in tacit understanding.

"I heard that Shen Lin accepted you as his disciple?"

As he spoke, he took out a dagger from the backpack behind him. The scabbard was black and there was a blue gem on the handle. You could tell at a glance that it was worth a lot of money.

"Well, Master taught me a lot."

Somehow, Jiang Shu seemed to hear disdain in his tone.

"He's only half-baked, so he can only teach you the basics."

Gu Qing Pei handed the dagger to her, "This is a thank you gift for saving me that day."

Jiang Shu was holding the dagger, feeling a bit overwhelmed. "This is too expensive. You've already given me the crystal, so forget about this."

"Do you think my life is cheap?"

"No, no, no, that's not what I meant."

Jiang Shu waved his hand and had no choice but to accept this gift which was regarded as a life-saving favor.

"This is a weapon you can use when your spiritual energy is exhausted, or to surprise attack the enemy..."

Gu Qing Pei not only gave gifts, he also gave a tutorial on how to use it. The two of them walked and talked, and before they knew it, it was noon.

As soon as it was time for dinner, Jiang Shu received a reminder from her pretty thug. She turned around, tugged on Gu Qingpei's sleeve and said, "Teacher Gu, you've worked hard teaching me. I'll treat you to dinner."

Gu Qing Pei was indeed hungry, and he came here without even having breakfast. He nodded: "Okay."

The two walked into the restaurant one after the other.

Not long after, a group of people also came to the restaurant.

"President, is that Mr. Gu over there?"

Potato pointed with surprise at Gu Qing Pei who was chatting with the girl opposite him in the restaurant with a smile.

He is so aloof in their association, but I didn’t expect that the boss has another face now!

"Don't bother the big guy's date, let's go eat at another place."

Tomato is a girl, and she is more thoughtful. She suggested, "The restaurant across the street is also delicious."

Jiang Nanxuan lifted his tie, his cold eyes fixed on something unknown: "No need, just here."
