Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 468: A Tiger Sniffing a Rose
Just as Gu Chi could see through Gu Che’s acting at a glance, Gu Che also understood Gu Chi’s true intentions.
It turns out he covets the green bean cake his sister made.
He wants to eat it too!
"You’re right," Gu Che said with all his acting skills, pretending to be regretful, "Then we’ll have to share it ourselves."
His ability to act quickly, he immediately got up to get the green bean cake his sister deliberately left behind.
Tuanzi was a bit dizzy, tilting her head to look at Gu Che.
"No, how come..."
Why did the topic suddenly jump so fast?
The system vaguely sensed something.
Its thought was quite simple: it hadn’t had the chance to eat anything the host made, conditions wouldn’t allow it. If one fewer person gets to eat, it would be happy, the system thought mischievously.
[Ancient Martial System: Didn’t you ask Gu Li if the cookie was good?]
Tuanzi, still dizzy, turned her head and asked.
Gu Li, who hadn’t swallowed his cookie: "..."
He vaguely understood he had been calculated against. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺
The already hot-tempered young man shouted directly: "Delicious!"
He wouldn’t let those two have their way!
In order to snatch back the green bean cake, he gobbled up several cookies. When Gu Che brought out the green bean cake, he stared aggressively at the other, "Matches my taste perfectly."
Gu Che: "..."
He could only pass over the plate with a secret delight, thankful that he had already sneaked two pieces.
At that moment, a hand reached over and took a piece.
"Seems a bit stale, let me try it."
Gu Chi confidently tasted a piece, "Couldn’t tell, let me taste it again."
Gu Li’s long arm scooped, snatching the plate with full dominance and placing it beside himself, preventing Gu Chi from taking any.
He didn’t much like green bean cake, nor did he know whether this was a new trap, but instinctively he didn’t want those two to have their way.
After tasting a piece, he looked at Tuanzi in wonder.
Tuanzi blinked, "Not tasty?"
Earlier it was indeed not tasty, but to go against them, he had vehemently said it was. Now presented with something genuinely delicious, he lacked the courage for outright praise.
"Barely so-so."
Gu Li murmured quietly, eating piece by piece swiftly, leaving no opportunity for others.
At this point, Tuanzi had already set her sights on the cake Gu Li brought.
"Wow," she genuinely praised, "You’re just like Brother Gu Zhuo, so in tune with Miaomiao’s tastes."
How could Gu Li admit he copied it?
"Just bought randomly," he replied calmly, "by chance."
Tuanzi choked.
"Okay then, not specifically bought for Miaomiao, just a coincidental purchase."
It was Gu Li’s turn to choke.
He sneakily glanced at his cousin’s expression, even if he wanted to change his words, it was too late, he could only grudgingly hand over the box.
Luckily, Tuanzi tends to forget unhappy things once she has food.
She happily munched on a piece and shared it with everyone.
After sharing, she happily held onto a piece and spun around, accidentally stepping on Gu Li’s foot.
"Ah, sorry, Miaomiao didn’t mean to..."
She lowered her head, wanting to see if she’d dirtied cousin’s shoes, and saw a pair of pink slippers. Looking closer, the slippers had two bunny ears on them.
The little girl fell silent.
She looked at the pink bunny ear slippers, then at Gu Li’s somewhat fierce face, then at the slippers again, remaining silent.
Sensing her odd behavior, Gu Che craned his neck for a peek, and ’pfft’ burst into laughter.
Tuanzi and Gu Li simultaneously turned to look at him, he sat back in seriousness, "Looks nice, matches well."
It’s the beauty of a fierce tiger sniffing the rose.
Gu Li’s ears turned slightly red, but it wasn’t visible to others.
He explained: "There weren’t any other slippers, it’s not that I like them. I— I don’t usually wear these kinds!"
The real reason was, he couldn’t find any in his size.
Tuanzi was confused: "Really? Doesn’t the house have a lot of slippers? Hasn’t the big brother cleaned them recently?"
’Da-da-da,’ she ran to the shoe cabinet, opened it, looked even more confused.
"Where did all the house slippers go?"
Hearing her murmur, the young painter lowered his head to fiddle with the camera, seemingly intent on making it bloom flowers.
Finding no other slippers that fit the dimensions, Tuanzi had to return.
After yesterday’s shopping incident, Tuanzi considered herself acquainted with this cousin and wasn’t as afraid of his fierce face, she even purposely sat next to him and asked if he’d go to the supermarket next week.
"I often exercise around there."
Gu Li repeated the same response, "Can check it out when passing by."
His tone implied he wouldn’t purposely go to check but might when passing by.
Gu Che looked at him a few more times, feeling the words were familiar.
It seemed he had spoken like this to his big brother before.
"I can go too."
Gu Che shared his recent plans, "Next week, I’ll be back and will record a show at the local TV station, might join your show for fun."
Calling it ’fun,’ it actually means helping to draw in viewers.
Ordinary shows seeking Gu Che’s help are often ignored, but if it’s his sister’s show, he definitely helps seriously.
Tuanzi now fully understands the relationship between show popularity and reputation value, upon hearing this, she quickly pounced into Gu Che’s embrace, rolling around, and even offered to massage his shoulders.
"Second brother works hard, then when you come over, Miaomiao can treat you to..."
She calculated her daily share, feeling a bit pained, "Treat you to instant noodles!"
The shop’s instant noodles are quite expensive!
Gu Che was actually tempted.
"Feels like I haven’t had instant noodles in years."
Tuanzi glancing towards the door, ensuring big brother wouldn’t suddenly return, and whispered, "Miaomiao doesn’t dare to eat instant noodles on the show, afraid big brother would find out. But we can hide and eat, sharing one bowl of instant noodles."
Gu Che raised his hand, Tuanzi immediately cooperated with a high-five.
Both were eagerly looking forward to next week’s show, to slurp noodles together.
[Ancient Martial System: Did you forget there are two brothers here? What if they tattle?]
Tuanzi suddenly looked at Gu Li vigilantly, "Cousin, you won’t tell big brother, will you?"
This was already the umpteenth time being called ’cousin’?
Gu Li quickly calculated, purposely responding harshly, "I’m not familiar with him."
Tuanzi understood the implication, bursting into a radiant smile, playfully making a heart gesture, "Love ya~"
She learned this from online friends.
Gu Li: "!"
Separated by some distance, no one noticed that the initially fierce young man had become a statue.
At this moment, Tuanzi was still currying favor with Gu Chi, hoping he wouldn’t complain.
"I’ll make green bean cake for you in a few days!"
The handsome painter raised an eyebrow, remaining silent.
Tuanzi added sweetness: "I’ll also model for you for free, three paintings, as many as three paintings!"
The painter stroked his chin, pretending to be somewhat tempted, yet hesitant.
Tuanzi grew anxious.
Her master previously used a blend of soft and hard approaches, considering it, she stuffed her chubby face close, ’baby-fierce’ threateningly, "If you don’t agree, Miaomiao will tell Gu Mo it was you who swapped his chocolate balls for flavored beans!"
