Mr Fu, I Really Love You

Perhaps Gu Qingcheng had his doubts. But looking at the way that child Yun Liuli was acting, that doubt dissipated.

Perhaps Gu Qingcheng himself didn’t wish to delve into this deeper, as he treasured such interactions with Yun Liuli.

After finishing her breakfast, Yun Liuli watched as Gu Qingcheng cleared the dishes away, then squirmed over like a little kitten, wheedling as she pressed against Gu Qingcheng’s back. “Uncle Qingcheng, will you watch cartoons with me?”

Gu Qingcheng turned his head and saw Yun Liuli, who was hugging him from behind. There was anticipation in the young lady’s eyes. He nodded. “You go turn on the TV, and I’ll come soon!”

“Okay!” Yun Liuli obediently answered, then jogged over to the sofa and turned on the TV. She didn’t forget to turn around and say to Gu Qingcheng, “Uncle Qingcheng… can you peel an apple for me!”

“Okay!” Gu Qingcheng’s voice sounded indulgent.

“Uncle Qingcheng…” Yun Liuli sniffled. “Will you treat me this well forever?”

Gu Qingcheng paused in his act of cleaning the dishes. Forever…

Forever didn’t exist for a person like Gu Qingcheng!

But still, he raised his head and smiled such that Yun Liuli couldn’t see the look in his eyes. He nodded. “Forever…”

Having obtained the reply, Yun Liuli’s lips curled up. Restraining the tears that were welling up in her eyes, she turned around to select a cartoon.

Gu Qingcheng had said forever to Yun Liuli before…

Alas, all that stopped when she confessed to him.

This time… Gu Qingcheng still promised her forever.

But, if Gu Qingcheng found out that she didn’t actually lose her memory or had recovered her memory, perhaps… forever would stop at that moment too!

Yun Liuli’s petite hands clenched. She suddenly had the thought of keeping up the act forever…

To be doted upon and spoiled by him like this forever, it wouldn’t matter if he treated her like a child.

Yun Liuli lowered her head and looked at her clean fingernails, feeling a little guilty… Would pretending forever be too shameless?

Hearing Gu Qingcheng walking over, Yun Liuli knew that she couldn’t conceal the redness in her eyes anymore. Hence, she looked up and said to Gu Qingcheng, “I used to always plead with Daddy to watch cartoons with me, but Daddy was always so busy…”

Looking at how hard the young lady was trying to hold back her tears, Gu Qingcheng reached out and stroked the top of her head. “In the future… Uncle Qingcheng will watch them with you!”

“Uncle Qingcheng… why doesn’t Daddy ever call me when he’s away on work?” Yun Liuli asked. “I can’t contact him. Is he really that busy?”

Actually, this was a question Yun Liuli had all along.

Yun Shoushan was away on business for more than 300 days in a year, and he would never call her while he was away. He always said he was busy… but how busy did he have to be not to have the time to even call his daughter?

After pondering for a moment, Gu Qingcheng sat down beside Yun Liuli and said, “Your dad… is a very noble person. It’s not that he doesn’t wish to accompany you… it’s to help you secure peace and quiet in this world!”

Yun Liuli’s heart pounded twice.

Regarding Yun Shoushan’s identity, Yun Liuli had never scrutinized it. She had always thought that Yun Shoushan was one of Gu Qingcheng’s men!

However, Yun Liuli was clear about the kind of business Gu Qingcheng was in. To call his work securing the peace and quiet in this world would be ridiculous. Their business probably rejoiced upon seeing chaos in the world.

Heart pounding wildly, Yun Liuli looked up and asked, “So… is Daddy a superhero? Like Superman!”

Gu Qingcheng nodded. “Right… your daddy is like Superman! But your dad is nobler than Superman!”

Yun Liuli had always been a bright girl. Hearing this from Gu Qingcheng, she had some speculations about her father’s identity.

She drew the connection to Gu Qingcheng. She asked, “Then… Daddy says that Uncle Qingcheng is his colleague. Then, Uncle Qingcheng… you’re very noble too, right?”

Gu Qingcheng was silent for a moment, his smiling eyes calm, deep, and unfathomable…

He said, “No, I’m the person your dad wants to rescue!”

Yun Liuli didn’t seem to understand. Gu Qingcheng didn’t wish to elaborate on the topic, so he stroked her head and asked, “What do you want to watch?”

Knowing that Gu Qingcheng was trying to change the subject, Yun Liuli didn’t persist. She casually pointed at a cartoon. “Let’s watch this one!”

Yun Liuli wasn’t in the mood to focus on the cartoon anymore. She leaned against Gu Qingcheng’s chest, eating the apple that he had peeled for her while playing Tetris on her phone at the same time.

Gu Qingcheng asked with a frown, “Do you want to watch cartoons or play games?”

“Both…”

Yun Liuli, who was chewing the apple, said in an unclear manner.

Gu Qingcheng sighed. He placed the core of the apple and the fruit knife on the fruit platter, then saw Yun Liuli staring at her phone screen while moving her head closer, wanting to bite the apple!

Gu Qingcheng pinched Yun Liuli’s face…

“Ya!” Yun Liuli twisted her head, staring at Gu Qingcheng with her large and watery eyes, anger in her voice. “Uncle Qingcheng!”

“You’re getting more and more absurd!” Gu Qingcheng wiped his finger with a tissue. “Put away your phone and focus on the cartoon, else I’ll confiscate your phone!”

When she heard him mention confiscating the phone, Yun Liuli set the phone aside despite her unwillingness to part with it, then put all her focus on the TV screen.

Actually, Yun Liuli wasn’t fond of watching cartoons when she was young. She felt that they were childish and uninteresting…

But perhaps because Gu Qingcheng was by her side, Yun Liuli actually found the cartoon interesting.

“I remember that your dad once said you don’t like watching cartoons. Why do you suddenly enjoy watching them?” Gu Qingcheng asked.

Yun Liuli didn’t panic. She pouted and said, “That’s because he won’t keep me company! It’s only interesting when someone’s watching with me. Sitting in front of the TV all by myself while watching the lively scenes on TV would make me appear lonelier! Cartoons… have always had lively and crowded scenes!”

Hearing this from a young lady like Yun Liuli, it did appear rather lonely…

Gu Qingcheng could even imagine the young lady sitting obediently in the living room, home alone, watching the lively colors on TV with her little face tensed. How lonely was that?

Gu Qingcheng placed a hand upon Yun Liuli’s head and stroked it gently, saying nothing.

The thing that troubled Gu Qingcheng the most about being with Yun Liuli was perhaps bedtime.

He was afraid that Yun Liuli would ask to sleep with him at night, while also secretly anticipating it…

After coming out of the shower, Gu Qingcheng sat before his desk, his vision unconsciously sweeping over the door, waiting for Yun Liuli’s arrival.

Gu Qingcheng had even thought of how he was going to reject her. It wouldn’t do for Yun Liuli to continue sleeping with him. He had to cut the Gordian knot.
