Gu Qichen remained expressionless, only responding with a noncommittal hum.

“Yangyang mentioned earlier that you and she are colleagues, Gu. What job do you do?”

Gu Qichen replied simply, “Just an ordinary job.”

Han Xiaomei let out a small chuckle and changed the topic: “Yangyang certainly has a good eye. Brother Gu, at first glance, you seem to be quite remarkable.”

It appeared that Gu Qichen was not interested in making small talk.

He stood to leave the room.

Han Xiaomei called out to him, “Brother Gu, could you please do me a favour?”

Gu Qichen turned around.

Han Xiaomei, smiling cordially, said, “There seems to be a small issue with my laptop, could you perhaps give it a look?”

By then, Han Xiaomei had walked over to Gu Qichen with her laptop. “I have work to do this evening, but the computer has suddenly crashed, and there are important files that need to be backed up. Brother Gu, I hope I’m not causing you too much trouble.”

Gu Qichen frowned slightly.

But he sat down on a single-seater sofa in the room and turned on the computer.

The computer screen was black.

Gu Qichen adjusted a few programs, restarted the computer, and in a matter of minutes, it was back working properly.

As Han Xiaomei came over with a cup of water, she saw that the computer was up and running.

Han Xiaomei was astonished, “Brother Gu, you’re really skilled.”

She then handed over the tea in her hand, “This is Longjing tea, a gift from a friend; you must try it, Brother Gu.”

Gu Qichen hadn’t extended his hand to take it yet.

But Han Xiaomei suddenly jolted and spilled the cup of tea on Gu Qichen’s pants.

A surprised gasp escaped Han Xiaomei’s lips, “I’m sorry.”

She promptly grabbed a napkin from the table to help Gu Qichen wipe off the tea from his pants.

Before she could touch him, Gu Qichen abruptly stood up and stepped back.

Then he coldly said, “Out!”

Han Xiaomei was completely unprepared for Gu Qichen’s harsh reaction.

She stood there, frozen and clutching the napkin.

Just then, Xia Yangyang came out of the shower and saw what had happened.

Xia Yangyang hurried over and said apologetically, “Sister Xiaomei, please don’t mind him; he’s a clean freak and doesn’t like being touched.”

Xia Yangyang then took the tissue and wiped off the tea from Gu Qichen’s pants, who didn’t seem to mind.

But Han Xiaomei immediately laughed it off and calmly said, “It’s my fault. I accidentally spilled tea on Brother Gu.”

Miao Shuhui happened to walk in at that moment, saw that all of them were in the room, and cheerfully said, “Dinner is ready. Yangyang, your grandmother is already here.”

So, everyone headed downstairs.

Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen were at the back.

Xia Yangyang glared at Gu Qichen, “Why were you so rude earlier?”

Gu Qichen frowned, “There’s something odd about your neighbour.”

Xia Yangyang pinched him, “You’re the weird one. Uncle Han’s family is lovely; it was just a small accident. It was lucky that Sister Xiaomei didn’t hold it against you.”

During the meal, Han’s family was very hospitable.

But Yangyang’s grandmother didn’t seem too pleased with Gu Qichen and wore a stern face throughout dinner.

After the meal, Yangyang’s grandmother and Miao Shuhui chatted in the kitchen.

Uncle Han engaged Gu Qichen in a game of Go.

Meanwhile, Xia Yangyang and Han Xiaomei sat in the courtyard, eating fruit and chatting.

Han Xiaomei said, “Yangyang, do you know about the dragon boat race in town tomorrow? You and Brother Gu, being back here, shouldn’t miss such a grand

event..”
