Chapter 1413: Chapter 1317: Gu Qichen Performing Magic Tricks

Xia Yangyang quickly got up and said, "I should go back."

Lu Yao said, "I lost track of time too, it’s getting late, you should go back, otherwise Mr. Gu will be worried."

Tang Rufeng said, "Mr. Gu is just outside. He knows you’re chatting and didn’t want to interrupt."

Xia Yangyang was surprised: "When did he come over?"

"He has been here for over an hour, just playing with the two kids in the yard."

Xia Yangyang bade farewell to Lu Yao and Tang Rufeng, and upon stepping out of the door, she saw Gu Qichen.

Gu Qichen was sitting on a bench in the courtyard.

Incredibly, he was performing magic tricks for Xia Ye and Tangtang.

It was the simple coin magic.

In the eyes of adults, the trickery was easily seen through.

But to Xiao Tangguo, it was marvelously intriguing.

Laughing, she kept trying to pry open Gu Qichen’s hands, and when she couldn’t find the coin, she’d clap her hands in surprise, calling Gu Qichen Super Uncle.

Of course, these little tricks couldn’t fool Xia Ye.

Xia Ye, of course, didn’t reveal the secret, merely sitting quietly by the side, giving support.

Xia Yangyang had never seen Gu Qichen like this before.

In Xia Yangyang’s memory, he was always detached, serious in demeanor.

Seemingly born with an inborn aura that kept others at bay.

Xia Yangyang had never seen Gu Qichen this approachable before.

There he was, performing clumsy magic meant to amuse children.

Seeing Xiao Tangguo’s enthusiastic applause, Gu Qichen’s lips even revealed a childish, smug smile.

Xia Yangyang stood at the door, almost transfixed.

So this cold and unpredictable Mr. Gu, could fall from grace too.

Xia Ye was the first to notice Xia Yangyang.

Turning his head towards the door, he seemed to call out, "Mommy."

Gu Qichen instantly looked up.

Their distance wasn’t far.

So when Xia Yangyang met Gu Qichen’s gaze, she watched the light in his eyes extinguish right before her.

Just like that, his face slowly frosted over with ice.

As if what Xia Yangyang had just witnessed was all an illusion.

Does Gu Qichen really dislike her that much?

His ability to change his expression in an instant was indeed formidable.

Xia Yangyang walked towards him.

Gu Qichen was already standing up.

Xia Yangyang said, "When did you get here?"

Gu Qichen’s voice was cool, "Just arrived a little while ago."

Xia Yangyang rolled her eyes internally.

He had already been there for two hours; his character was truly haughty to the extreme.

Xia Yangyang didn’t bother with Gu Qichen any further.

She simply said to Tangtang, "Tangtang, you should go and sleep now, we’re going home too."

Tangtang said her reluctant goodbyes with a sad face: "Goodbye Auntie Yangyang, Uncle Gu, brother Xia Ye."

After sending Tangtang into the house, Xia Yangyang left with Gu Qichen.

Xia Ye was already getting sleepy.

Xia Ye’s normal sleep time was a bit longer than that of other children,

Possibly because he has had a sleep disorder since he was young.

So halfway home, Xia Ye began to stagger uncontrollably, slipping into sleep.

Xia Yangyang was somewhat startled.

But Gu Qichen seemed unconcerned.

He simply picked up Xia Ye and said, "He’s just tired, let’s go."

Gu Qichen carried Xia Ye, who soon fell asleep on Gu Qichen’s shoulder.

By the time they got back, it was already half-past ten.
