Chapter 571: Chapter 572: Growing Up Behind My Back

Upon hearing this, Helian Qiao was immediately overjoyed, her eyes curving into a smile: "Thank you, dad!"

Then, seeing Lu Xiaofen walk in from outside, she cooed softly again, "Thank you, Mom!"

"Silly child, there’s no need to thank your mom and dad."

Lu Xiaofen picked up the thermos, unplugged the wooden stopper, poured a bowl of warm water, added a spoonful of honey, stirred it, and then handed it to Helian Qiao, "Guibao, drink this bowl of water and then wash up and eat. Tingyun should be here soon."

"Okay, Mom."

Helian Qiao guzzled the sweet honey water down and went to wash her face and brush her teeth.

Just as she spit out the toothpaste from her mouth, Gu Tingyun arrived.

Ma Xiulian stood in the courtyard, watching the approaching tall figure, and couldn’t help but yell with a smile, "Guibao, Tingyun is here!"

Helian Qiao looked up and saw the fourteen-year-old Gu Tingyun.

The young Gu was growing into a handsome teenager, with sharp eyebrows, deep eyes, and scholarly grace.

Yet his dark eyes were icy cold, which melted immediately when he saw Guibao from afar. His eyebrows and eyes warmed up, and his steps quickened a little.

"Tingyun looks sharp today!" Ma Xiulian praised loudly.

It seemed like only yesterday they were kids, and now they had grown up in the blink of an eye!

Gu Tingyun was wearing a white shirt with jeans and carried a black canvas bag over his shoulder, looking refreshing and handsome.

The only drawback was his slender stature, which made him look somewhat thin.

But Helian Qiao knew that under his clothes was a firm layer of muscle, hard to the touch, unlike her soft body!

They ate roughly the same amount, so how come they turned out so different?!

Helian Qiao immediately ran over, stood on her tiptoes, and measured their height difference with her hand. She pouted, complaining in a child-like voice, "Gu Tingyun, did you secretly grow taller without letting me know?!"

The little princess had always been jealous that the big bad dragon was half a head taller than her.

They were only a year apart in age, but no matter how hard she tried, she could never catch up to him!

It made her dragon mad!

"No." Gu Tingyun replied with a slight smile.

His clear voice now had a hint of seductive deepness.

Ma Xiulian was quite amused by all this, "Guibao, relax. You two just saw each other yesterday. He couldn’t have grown that quickly!"

The two kids grew up together, constantly competing against each other, each having their own wins and losses, or sometimes tying for first place.

But when it came to height, Guibao, being a girl, just couldn’t catch up to Tingyun.

"That’s good."

Hearing this, Helian Qiao finally relaxed and turned around to run back into the house to eat.

She needs to eat more so she can grow taller than everyone else!

Gu Tingyun still had a small smile on his lips as he quietly followed her into the house.

Seeing him, Little Chen Hao greeted with a child-like voice, "Good morning, Brother Tingyun."

Gu Tingyun responded indifferently, "Good morning."

He was indifferent towards everyone except Guibao.

Little Chen Hao was used to this by now, and didn’t mind his indifference, since his favorite person was Sister Guibao.

So, he held his little bowl with both hands, climbed onto the stool to sit next to his sister, and obediently began to eat.

"Everyone come and eat!"

Ma Xiulian called out, then turned to Gu Tingyun, "Tingyun, sit down and eat something too."

This is the time when one grows, so you should eat!

"Thank you, Grandma Chen, but I’ve already eaten at home before I came."
