You Owe Me, My Love

Chapter 364 We Are Family

Wu Nian got up from the bed as quietly as she could and crept toward the door.

Since there was no en-suite bathroom, she had to go out of the study to freshen herself up.

When she opened the door, her eyes met the eyes of Gu Mingchen.

She was taken aback, not sure what was going on. “Hello?”

Ignoring her greeting, the man handed her two sets of disposable toothpaste and toothbrushes.

She looked at the toiletries in his hand, and a strange feeling washed over her. Such things should be given to me by Stephen’s housekeeper, not him.

“You don’t need these?” Gu Mingchen grew a little impatient when she did not take the things in his hand.

His voice was deep and husky, sounding similar to a cello. It was very pleasing to the ears.

She promptly took the toiletries over and said respectfully, “Thank you, Mr. Gu.”

“Since you’re now hired as my children’s home tutor, you’re considered a part of the family now. You don’t need to be so polite.” With that, the man turned around and left.

Family? She looked at his tall and muscular figure. I guess it’s good to be family in this way.

After she collected herself, she headed to the bathroom to brush her teeth and shower. By the time she was done, Liu Yan had also gotten up.

The woman’s eyes were red and puffy from crying last night. She was clearly still muzzy from sleep.

Wu Nian grinned at her disheveled look as she handed her the toiletries and teased, “Take a look at your hair. It’s as messy as a pigpen. Are you sure you’re not a boy?”

Guffawing at her joke, Liu Yan seemed to have forgotten their sentimentality last night. “Oh, how I wish I were male! I wouldn’t have to worry about taming my mane every day. Hahaha.”
