CHAPTER 112: CHAPTER 112 ACTUALLY, I LIKE YOUR BROTHER

As Mai City entered late May, it slowly started to get hotter, and Gu Qimiao gradually replaced her heavy cotton coats with light dresses.

Today, she was wearing a white dress, and her long hair was casually braided into a plait. She already looked young, but this made her seem even younger by several years.

In the art gallery, she was considered a minor figure. Those who used to talk behind her back now genuinely admired her. They greeted her warmly whenever they met, and since most people in the gallery were older, they treated her like a little sister.

"Miaomiao, you’re just on time again today!" Sister Mei had just walked out of the changing room.

"Hehe, don’t tell Teacher Fang."

Before she even finished speaking, Fang Shaobei’s voice came from behind: "No need for her to tell."

Gu Qimiao turned around quickly and said, "Teacher Fang, you’re late!"

Fang Shaobei laughed and teased her, "Should I dock my salary and give some to you?"

"Sure!"

Fang Shaobei raised his hand and knocked lightly on her head, then said seriously, "There’s less than a month left for your exhibition, and you’re still being lazy!"

Fang Shaobei had put a lot of thought into her solo exhibition, and Gu Qimiao naturally took it seriously as well. After a few jokes, she went to her studio to start working.

As she was painting, she noticed a girl outside the window carrying a basket and buying flowers. She frowned in confusion. What day is it today?

She turned to glance at the calendar on the desk. She picked up a pencil and flipped to the current page, marking today’s date. It was May 20th...

She put down the pencil and rested her head on her hand, looking out the window. A young couple walked by, the boy bought a flower, and the girl was beaming with happiness. Then they walked away hand in hand, laughing and talking...

How nice, Gu Qimiao couldn’t help but smile. This kind of love was ordinary but sweet to the core.

"Knock knock—Gigi!"

Gu Qimiao turned her head to look at the door. Before she could say anything, Xiaoxiao had already rushed in. She was a regular visitor, so she didn’t stand on ceremony and sat directly in the chair opposite Gu Qimiao.

"What’s up, Xiaoxiao? Don’t you have class today?"

Xiaoxiao blinked and confessed, "I ditched class. I have something very important I need your help with!"

Gu Qimiao looked at the two exquisite little gift boxes in Xiaoxiao’s hands and asked in confusion, "What do you need help with?"

Usually carefree, Xiaoxiao suddenly became shy and blushed. She scratched her head and said to Gu Qimiao, "Gigi... actually... I like your brother. Don’t laugh at me!"

Gu Qimiao was stunned. She would never laugh at her. In fact, she felt a bit envious of Xiaoxiao’s honesty.

"My brother? Gu Moming?"

Xiaoxiao nodded vigorously and said, "Actually, when we had dinner last time, I was particularly fond of him! I’ve been looking for a chance to tell him, but I haven’t seen him since then. I waited so long for today. I’m going to confess to him, or else it’ll be too hard to bear! Oh, Gigi, does your brother have a girl he likes? Or what kind of girls does he like?"

Gu Qimiao thought for a moment, "My brother..." She recalled the girls who were often around him when he was in Italy, all quite demure. She looked at Xiaoxiao and said with a smile, "I think you’re pretty much his type."

Xiaoxiao, hearing this, held her face and smiled excitedly, "Then you have to help me!"

Gu Qimiao stared at her in a daze, thinking it’s really surprising that someone like Xiaoxiao could like Gu Moming.

"So... how do you need me to help you?"

Xiaoxiao pointed to the two boxes, "I made these chocolates myself. I spent a long time learning! I want to give them to him. Can you help me invite him out?"

"And also, don’t tell him about this yet. Just find a way to get him to come to the school, and then you find an excuse to leave. I’ll rush out and confess to him."
