Chapter 197: Chapter 197: Adorkable Lost Pup
The man with a refined and handsome appearance sat obediently on the small stool, his long legs having nowhere to go, like a lost dog waiting for its owner.
Passersby couldn’t help but glance once, twice, even feeling the impulse to bring this ’lost dog’ home.
The cameraman following Gu Miaomiao accurately aimed the lens at this man from a distance.
[Wow, this type is really appealing]
[Refined appearance and elegant demeanor, even sporting frameless glasses, slick]
[Could this be Gu Miaomiao’s cousin? He looks so familiar]
[I also find him familiar, feels like I’ve seen him somewhere]
Before long, Tuanzi rushed towards Gu Mo, even suggesting they exchange legs.
The man stood up and caught his sister.
Upon hearing his sister’s request, he thought carefully for a moment, "But, I don’t know which hospital can perform this operation."
Tuanzi: (○o○)
[No way, he took it seriously?]
[This handsome brother seems a bit silly]
[I know who he is, he was featured in a science magazine before, a big name in the field of astronomy]
[Isn’t he the astronomy professor at Sea City Science and Technology University?]
[A few years ago there was a massive controversy about him, as he was so young, many thought the university heads were out of their minds when they appointed him professor]
[The students from the astronomy department at Sea City Science and Technology University say Professor Gu is really amazing, not even mentioning his record-breaking researches, just talking about his lectures, they are excellent and always packed]
[Turns out you should never limit a person by their age]
[Is that the main point? The main point is Gu Miaomiao’s cousin is actually a professor, what about those who spoke ill of Miaomiao before? Feeling their faces burn?]
Gu Mo was still contemplating, "Can modern medical technology perform leg exchange surgery?"
Tuanzi waved her little hands frantically, "Ahhh, Miaomiao was joking, Gu Mo brother, don’t think about it!"
The young professor blinked, looking at her with confusion.
"Joking?"
"Yes," Tuanzi nodded resolutely, "It’s better for long legs to be grown naturally; they’ll be more fitting."
Gu Mo pondered for a moment and agreed, "Makes sense."
Tuanzi breathed a sigh of relief.
She thought, sometimes Gu Mo brother couldn’t tell the difference between jokes.
Then Gu Chi finally said leisurely, "Don’t joke with him anymore, he’ll take it seriously, and don’t prank him."
Tuanzi glanced at him sideways, "You also often joke around with Gu Mo brother!"
Gu Chi denied it.
Tuanzi stomped her feet in anger.
"Last time at home, you told him you needed a model for your painting, he couldn’t stay home all the time, so you made him pose for photos, and he posed for ages!"
In the end, Gu Chi took the photos and shared them with his parents instead of using them for painting!
Poor Gu Mo brother followed the instructions: one moment holding a teacup pretending to drink tea, another leaning against the door frame, or looking up at the sky.
Gu Chi averted his gaze guiltily.
Tuanzi sneered, "And another time, you spread wasabi on toast, tricked him into thinking it was matcha-filled toast!"
Tuanzi rattled on, clearly intending to recount all of Gu Chi’s pranks.
Gu Chi quickly covered her little mouth.
Tuanzi showed her big eyes, staring at him indignantly.
Gu Chi grinned, "Aren’t you just the same? Pretending to have a stomach ache, saying eating milk candy would make it better, then he went to the convenience store to buy you milk candy, ended up being scolded by your big brother."
Tuanzi looked up at the sky guiltily.
[...Aren’t these two’s psychological ages the same?]
[Suddenly feeling quite sorry for Gu Mo, being surrounded by two little devils in the family]
[Is Gu Mo seriously oblivious to being fooled?]
[Why do I perceive ’doting’?]
Gu Mo observed their expressions closely and suddenly clapped his hands.
"Seems like you two get along well."
Gu Chi and Tuanzi: "..."
Gu Mo clapped his hands again, "Shall we shake hands and make up now?"
Gu Chi released his hand and extended it again, and Tuanzi reluctantly stretched her hand out.
Big hand and small hand held together.
Tuanzi gave a fierce shake.
Gu Chi grinned and applied a bit of force too.
Gu Chi: ^_^
Tuanzi: ^_^
Gu Mo sighed, "Seems participating in the show really helps nurture relationships; you’re getting along better and better."
The big hand and small hand quickly separated.
[Hiss, is he really clueless or sneakily clever?]
[This family’s relationship is really good, envious]
[Hahaha, look at that, Gu Chi’s hand is red, Miaomiao has quite the strength]
Gu Chi showed his hand with a grievance, moving it closer to Gu Mo.
"Brother, look, Miaomiao is so strong."
Gu Mo nodded, "That’s good, won’t be bullied."
Gu Chi: "..."
Tuanzi made a face at Gu Chi, this time, she won!
Gu Mo picked up a small suitcase.
"Everything you wanted is inside, I’m heading back."
Gu Chi immediately turned his head to wink at Tuanzi.
Tuanzi dashed over like an arrow to hug Gu Mo’s arm.
"Gu Mo brother, have you had lunch? Our show’s boxed lunch is really good, let’s eat together."
Gu Mo hesitated.
Tuanzi eagerly continued, "After lunch, we’re going to the beach to collect lots of shells for Gu Chi brother to paint, would you like to help?"
Gu Mo looked at Gu Chi.
Gu Chi shrugged, "We’re short on money."
Gu Mo took out his wallet and pulled out a bank card.
"Swipe freely."
Gu Chi quickly covered the key information on the card.
"Not allowed, that would be cheating."
Gu Mo tilted his head, "Cheating?"
Gu Chi’s hand itched a bit, wanting to pat his big brother’s head.
Tuanzi felt the urge too, and she directly treated Gu Chi as a tree, climbing up high, and immediately stretched out her little paw to pat Gu Mo’s head.
"Good pat, nice head."
Gu Chi: "..."
The sister is perfect, except she loves competing with him to tease their big brother.
Gu Chi laughed, "Let’s talk while we walk."
He carried his sister, leading Gu Mo to the villa, explaining the show’s plan in detail along the way.
They actually have the money to renovate the villa, but then it wouldn’t match the theme of the show.
Gu Mo mused.
"That furniture store owner sponsored you all a batch of tables and chairs in the company’s name."
Gu Chi blinked, "Big brother, what are you thinking?"
Gu Mo shook his head.
Before realizing it, they arrived at the villa’s front.
"Since you’re here already," Tuanzi quickly grabbed Gu Mo’s arm, "eat lunch with us."
Gu Mo muddle-headedly stayed for lunch.
[Now I’m certain, this professor is actually adorably clueless in private]
[Yes, yes, adorably clueless, I can’t believe I find a man cute, oh my!]
[Why don’t I have such a brother or nephew? Teasing a clueless man must be fun]
[Gu Chi and Gu Miaomiao already have one, didn’t you see how much fun they’re having?]
[Tears of envy are flowing from the corners of my mouth, boo hoo]
After lunch, Gu Mo went along with the guests to the beach just as muddle-headedly.
He, like the others, rolled up his trousers, holding a small red bucket and a tiny shovel in hand.
