Chapter 3231 Shen Tianyu 631

The blue-necked, red-feathered Eclectic parrot that Shen Tianyu had given to Gu Aoting stood on its perch, its beak open, chirping, "Looking for Tianyu! Looking for Tianyu!"

Gu Aoting has been staying at home to hibernate lately and rarely goes out.

He summoned a male servant to help him put on his coat and shoes.

After changing his clothes, he walked outside, leaning on his cane.

He couldn't even wait for Shen Tianyu to come and wish him a Happy New Year.

Qin Shu caught a slight cold last night and drank a few glasses of wine, so she had a headache. Afraid that the children would worry, she made an excuse to sleep in and didn't let anyone come upstairs to disturb her.

Qin Ye strode up to Gu Aoting and reached out to help him.

As they walked, Gu Aoting suddenly pushed his hand away and handed his cane to the bodyguard beside him.

He discovered that the golden silkworm gu inside his body was indeed a good thing.

His legs stopped trembling, his feet were steady, and he could walk freely without crutches.

It felt like I was back when I was eighty.

At eighty years old, he was still full of energy, with a booming voice and boundless vitality, always having something to worry about.

Although it is said that one is obligated to accept gifts and favors, he could not sacrifice Qin Heng's lifelong happiness just because the Golden Silkworm Gu within him had nourished him for a mere two days.

Upon arriving at Shen Tianyu's house, Gu Aoting immediately shouted, "Tianyu, you need to keep an eye on Aheng and Chiling. They're exchanging glances and flirting all the time. Aheng should marry either a rich heiress, an official's daughter, or a scholarly family. How can he marry a little witch from Miao territory?"

Shen Tianyu frowned slightly.

Headache.

Chi Ling's personality was such that the more you tried to stop her, the more agitated she became.

Qin Heng was the same; originally, he probably didn't have any romantic feelings for Chi Ling.

If he tries to stop him, he might also get carried away.

Shen Tianyu glanced at Gu Aoting and asked, "Do you have a Gu poison inside you?"

"Correct."

"Do not covet."

Gu Aoting leaned back on the sofa and stretched out his limbs. "But I feel great now. My hearing and eyesight are sharp, and I don't even need a cane anymore. This Golden Silkworm Gu is a good thing. If Chi Ling doesn't have designs on Aheng, I'd be willing to hire her for a hefty sum to be my family doctor."

Shen Tianyu said, "You have no martial arts skills and cannot subdue it. In the long run, you will suffer the consequences. For ordinary people, the Golden Silkworm Gu is the same as opium."

Upon hearing this, Gu Aoting became even more determined not to let Chi Ling and Qin Heng date.

Another person with a natal Gu is Qing Hui.

He knew Qing Hui's character all too well.

Yuan Jinzhi picked up a green grape and put it into Shen Tianyu's mouth, saying, "Brother Tianyu, even Great-Grandpa has intervened. Why don't you try to persuade Aheng? Although I also want Chiling to marry an excellent man, don't Miao women not marry outside their hometown? If you know there's no future, don't start."

Shen Tianyu stood up and said, "I'll be right back."

Gu Aoting beamed with joy.

Heaven gave it to someone more capable than a boat.

Given Zhouzhou's personality, if he were to handle the situation, he would forcibly send Chiling abroad, which would only provoke her further.

Shen Tianyu went out and sent a message to Qin Heng: Where are you?

Qin Heng replied: Chi Ling wanted to watch a movie, so I brought her to my grandma's underground cinema.

Shen Tianyu: To avoid suspicion.

Qin Heng: She's a guest, so inviting her to a movie is just normal hospitality. Besides, she's Jinzhi's cousin, and Jinzhi is my older cousin, so basically, she's my cousin too. I often bring Yan Yan over to watch movies; it's no big deal.

Shen Tianyu frowned slightly and replied: Chi Ling's intentions are with you.

Qin Heng glanced at Chi Ling, who was staring wide-eyed at the movie, and asked, "Little dwarf, do you like me?"

Chi Ling glanced at him and said disdainfully, "Dream on!"

They were always arguing.

If we're talking about liking someone, then we're at a disadvantage.

Qin Heng placed his hand on the back of her sofa and said, "Jinzhi is my cousin, and you are her cousin, so you are also my cousin. You are not allowed to like me."

Chi Ling scoffed and retorted, "Don't worry, I'll like anyone but you!"

They may say harsh things, but they're actually quite reserved.

Because his arm was right behind her.

He was tall with long arms, and his arm was draped over the back of the sofa behind her, as if he were embracing her.

She only needed to lean back to fall into his arms.

Apart from the flickering light on the large screen, the rest of the home theater was pitch black.

The darkness amplifies one's senses, and the pleasant scent emanating from him seemed to waft straight into her nose.

She never knew that men could smell so good.

It wasn't an oily fragrance; instead, it was refreshing, vibrant, and clean, with a captivating masculine scent unique to young men.

Chi Ling turned to look at Qin Heng.

The faint light emanating from the screen outlined his strong features and handsome face.

He has a stylish hairstyle, a long neck, broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs.

She tilted her head slightly and said to him, "Kid, you're so handsome and so innocent, it's dangerous. How about I protect you?"

Qin Heng scoffed, "I'm very skilled, I don't need your protection."

"If we really fight, you might not be able to beat me."

Qin Heng scoffed, "Don't resort to underhanded tactics; you definitely can't beat me."

"You think Taoism is all aboveboard? Their whisks look soft, but inside they're either steel needles or iron chains. One flick of the whisk and they're guaranteed to tear your skin apart. Isn't that a heretical and unorthodox practice?"

Qin Heng raised his hand and straightened her head. "Watch your movie. Two days later, you take out the Golden Silkworm Gu, and I'll send you back to Miao territory."

Chi Ling glanced at him sideways.

Two days later, she will have a new reason to stay.

Pursuing Qin Heng is much easier and more interesting than pursuing Shen Tianyu.

Shen Tianyu is too aloof and too hard to pursue.

Qin Heng replied to Shen Tianyu's message: Brother, I asked Chi Ling, and she doesn't like me. Two days later, she removed the Golden Silkworm Gu from Great-Grandpa's abdomen, and I sent her back to Miao territory.

Shen Tianyu: Have someone else deliver it; don't go.

Qin Heng thought for a moment and replied, "There aren't any other suitable people, so I'll go. Anyway, I'm too lazy to go on vacation during my annual leave; I've already been to all the fun places."

Shen Tianyu: Either you go and never return, or Chi Ling will find another excuse to delay.

Qin Heng thought he was exaggerating.

Chi Ling is a bit mischievous, but her mother and grandfather are said to be of good character.

Sensing a presence approaching, Qin Heng abruptly looked up.

He noticed that Chi Ling had quietly leaned closer and was looking at his phone.

The moment he looked up, his eyes met hers.

She suddenly gave him a mischievous smile, raised her hands to pinch her cheeks, made a face at him, and said, "My mother and grandfather have come to the capital, so there's no need for you to send me back to Miao territory."

Qin Heng stared at her pretty little face.

In the flickering light and shadow, she was playful and lively, the darkness concealing a hint of wickedness about her.

Qin Heng thought, if Yan Yan could be this lively and playful, that would be wonderful.

That girl is like a wooden block all day long, full of worries, I wonder who she's worried about.

He picked up his phone and dialed Yan Yan's number.

I dialed for ages, but no one answered.

He then dialed Su Hua's number and asked her to transfer him to Yan Yan.

Yan Yan said "hello".

Qin Heng said, "Chi Ling will be going back to Miao territory with her mother and grandfather in two days. Then I'll have time. Where do you want to go? I'll take you."

Chi Ling suddenly turned her head and glared at him, her eyes becoming sharp.
