Yu Songyu tilted her head and gave him a playful smile. Gu Ting felt his ears flush with heat, quickly lowering his head to hide it. Little did Yu Songyu know that their meeting was not a coincidence; it was Gu Ting who had deliberately created an opportunity for them to spend time together, even if it was just in quiet companionship. Indeed, he had liked Yu Songyu since childhood.
Mother Yu and Yu Songyu were busy shopping along the way, while Gu Ting followed behind, carrying bags of all sizes, acting as both a helper and a bodyguard. He couldn't help but admire the women; they truly had a talent for shopping, never seeming to tire of it.
At the alley entrance, Yu Songbai was chatting with his childhood friend when he spotted Gu Ting trailing behind Mother Yu. He immediately straightened up.
"Hey!" Gu Ting greeted with a calm tone and a nod.
"Auntie is making you something delicious!" Mother Yu said, taking the items from Gu Ting's hands and stuffing them all into Yu Songbai's arms.
At that moment, Yu Songbai looked like a young master of a wealthy family being followed by his servant. "Mom, aren't you being a bit unfair? Am I not your son? Here I am carrying all these bags while Yu Songyu does nothing! If I get worn out, who's going to carry on the family line?"
Yu Songbai followed behind with a face full of grievance. His complaints weren't just about carrying things; it was mainly because his friends were around, and he hadn't finished bragging yet!
"Hmph!" Mother Yu scoffed, deliberately teasing him. "You have your older brother for grandchildren. Besides, do you even have a girlfriend? Talking about grandchildren!"
With just two sentences, Mother Yu extinguished Yu Songbai's bravado; she knew how to strike where it hurt.
Yu Songbai felt deflated instantly. Did he not want to find someone? "Buying all this stuff isn't just for me to eat! Why am I the only one carrying everything?" he mumbled weakly, expressing his inner dissatisfaction.
It seemed that his training hadn't been rigorous enough; how could he be so worn out from just this little bit of weight?
Gu Ting's voice was faint, but to Yu Songbai's ears, it sounded like thunder. He had been so busy complaining that he forgot Gu Ting was right behind him, and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
"Enough already! I'm full of energy!"
Upon hearing this, Yu Songbai quickly straightened up and puffed out his chest.
Sigh, I always feel like my brother is all show and no substance. How about it, Ting Ge? Could you help carry this for me?
Yu Songyu didn’t genuinely want Gu Ting to carry anything; she just wanted to scare Yu Songbai a little.
Gu Ting instantly understood the girl’s intention and couldn’t help but smile.
"Hey, don’t! I’m just joking! Xiao Yu, if you keep this up, it won’t be fun anymore. I’m your real brother; what do you mean all show and no substance? Besides, how could I let someone else handle such an honorable task as carrying your bag? Right? And anyway, Ting Ge is my superior; I wouldn’t want to trouble him with something so trivial. Haha, I’ll do it!"
Yu Songbai looked like a sycophant and shot a glare at Yu Songyu.
When they were younger, Yu Songbai often bullied Yu Songyu and had been disciplined by Gu Ting more than once. He thought that once he grew up, he could escape from under Gu Ting’s thumb, but who would have thought they would end up in the same unit, with Gu Ting still being his superior!
Sigh, life really doesn’t go as planned. This isn’t the end of a nightmare; it’s clearly the beginning of one!
Gu Ting was known in the army for his decisive actions and few words. Who would dare provoke him without reason?
Mother Yu watched her mischievous son get put in his place and felt both amused and exasperated. Truly, the higher the skill, the greater the challenge.
This son-in-law is quite promising! If he really marries my daughter, not only will she have someone to rely on in the future, but my son will also have someone to help keep him in line. It’s a win-win situation!
Mother Yu was very pleased with her thoughts; she found Gu Ting much more agreeable than her own son at that moment.
