CHAPTER 970: CHAPTER 970: CHILDISH GU XINGRUO

Unaware of Gu Xingruo’s thoughts, Gu Xiyue listened to Gu Zhiqi call her sister. A smile appeared on her cold face.

She silently thought to herself, "Indeed, so obedient."

Quickly suppressing her smile, she continued eating with an expressionless face.

Gu Xingruo sat down next to Gu Zhiqi with his bowl, slightly tilting his head to look at her, "Gu Zhiqi."

Gu Zhiqi turned her head to glance at Gu Xingruo, not speaking, but there was a hint of inquiry in her eyes.

"Call me Fourth Brother." Gu Xingruo fixed his gaze on Gu Zhiqi and directly made this request.

Gu Zhiqi listened, paused for a moment, and ignored him, continuing to eat with her head down.

Seeing this, Gu Xingruo’s brow twitched, "Our feelings for over ten years can’t compare to the few months you two have had together? How come you call her sister, but call me Gu Xingruo?"

Looking at Gu Zhiqi, Gu Xingruo’s eyes were full of obvious accusation, as if he wouldn’t let it go unless she called him Fourth Brother.

Listening to Gu Xingruo’s words, Gu Xiyue looked up at him.

Her eyes were cold as snow, tinged with a hint of chill.

Since coming to the Gu Family, Gu Xingruo was absolutely the most annoying person Gu Xiyue had ever seen, bar none.

Feeling Gu Xiyue’s gaze, Gu Xingruo turned to look back at her, with a little hostility in his eyes.

Both saw displeasure in each other’s eyes. After a few seconds of staring, they broke eye contact.

Gu Xingruo hadn’t touched a bite of rice, and slightly tilted his head to look at Gu Zhiqi, "I don’t care, you must call me Fourth Brother, or I won’t eat."

Gu Zhiqi didn’t pay him any mind, continuing to eat with her head down.

Seeing this, Gu Xiyue’s lips curved slightly, barely noticeable, as she quietly ate her meal.

But she was thinking to herself, "Is this guy really the little girl’s Fourth Brother?"

Not knowing she prefers not to talk while eating.

Unaware of Gu Xiyue’s thoughts, Gu Xingruo saw that Gu Zhiqi was ignoring him and actually put his bowl on the table, saying, "I’ll even give you a sweet and sour rib."

Saying this, Gu Xingruo picked up a sweet and sour rib and put it in Gu Zhiqi’s bowl, then stared at her with a serious face, "Call me Fourth Brother."

Gu Zhiqi picked up the sweet and sour rib from her bowl and put it back in Gu Xingruo’s bowl, "You eat it yourself."

Gu Xingruo: "... Fine, if you don’t call me, I’ll really go on a hunger strike to show you."

After saying this, he truly did not touch a single bite of food.

After both Gu Zhiqi and Gu Xiyue finished their meal, Gu Zhiqi noticed that Gu Xingruo hadn’t touched his rice.

He folded his arms, seated on the chair, with a cold face displaying a "I’m angry, come soothe me" look beside her.

Gu Zhiqi paused for a few seconds and asked Gu Xingruo, "Really not eating?"

Gu Xingruo’s expression showed a slight movement, as he continued with a cold face, "If you don’t call me Fourth Brother, I’ll go on a hunger strike."

Gu Zhiqi: "Oh."

She lazily responded, pulling a napkin from beside her to slowly and carefully wipe her mouth.

After wiping her mouth, Gu Zhiqi said to Aunt Li, "Aunt Li, you can clear the dishes now."

Would Master Zhi be threatened?

Of course not.

Gu Xingruo: ???

Seeing that Gu Zhiqi really had no intention of calling him, his expression gradually changed, finally glaring at her, "Are you really not going to call me?"

Gu Zhiqi didn’t respond.

Then, Aunt Li came over, seeing Gu Xingruo’s untouched rice, asked, "Young Master Xingruo, why haven’t you eaten at all, is it because you don’t like the food?"

Gu Zhiqi helpfully answered for Gu Xingruo, "He said he’s on a hunger strike."
