Sensational! Fake Noble VS Real Genius-Chapter 1672: Can You Stop Calling Me Child?
At nine in the evening, Gu Zhiqi received a video call from Su Yunling. Seeing his incoming call, a trace of confusion appeared in Gu Zhiqi’s eyes.
Why is he calling so early today?
Didn’t he always call around eleven at night before?
With a puzzled heart, she answered Su Yunling’s call.
As soon as the call connected, Su Yunling’s handsome face appeared on the screen, and he was still in costume.
Gu Zhiqi stared at him for several seconds.
Secretly sighing, it seemed he looked even better than yesterday.
At the same time, Gu Zhiqi’s confusion deepened. It looked like he was still with the theatre group; why was he calling now?
With a well-behaved expression, she said, "Brother, good evening."
Su Yunling chuckled softly on the other side and nodded, then looked at Gu Zhiqi and said, "Child, good evening."
Hearing Su Yunling’s nickname for her, Gu Zhiqi’s gaze paused slightly.
Child?
She hadn’t paid much attention before, but hearing him call her like that now felt a bit strange.
If he kept treating her like a child, it might affect her chances of pursuing someone.
Thinking about it, Gu Zhiqi slightly lowered her eyes and started to ponder.
Seeing Gu Zhiqi with her eyes downcast, Su Yunling thought she was upset and asked softly, "What’s wrong? Who upset you?"
Su Yunling guessed it might be because of the national competition results.
He called Gu Zhiqi earlier today because he finished work late tonight and was worried she would be upset about the results, so he wanted to call her in advance to comfort her.
As Gu Zhiqi was pondering how to get Su Yunling to change his nickname for her, she instinctively replied to his question.
After responding, she only then realized what Su Yunling asked, so she quickly shook her head at him and said, "Not unhappy."
Hearing this, Su Yunling raised his eyebrows slightly, then tentatively asked, "Did nothing upsetting happen today?"
Gu Zhiqi shook her head, and then, remembering something, immediately nodded.
Su Yunling: ?
With a questioning look in his eyes, he looked at Gu Zhiqi. Realizing she couldn’t see his expression through the screen, he asked, "What’s wrong?"
Gu Zhiqi set her phone on the stand, then rested her chin on her hand, looking at Su Yunling with a well-behaved face, "I want to discuss something with you."
Su Yunling raised an eyebrow.
Her tone and expression didn’t seem sad at all.
"What is it?"
Resting her chin on her hand, Gu Zhiqi looked at Su Yunling and lazily said, "I’m not a child anymore, so could you not call me a child from now on?"
This body may only be seventeen, but in reality, she’s already hundreds of years old.
Thinking of this, Gu Zhiqi suddenly remembered something.
If Su the Beauty found out she was that old, would he despise her?
Thinking about it, her brows furrowed with a slight melancholy.
Su Yunling, seeing her through the screen, couldn’t quite make out her expression, but sensed she seemed a bit unhappy.
But her words made Su Yunling pause for a moment. After a few seconds, he asked, "If I don’t call you a child, what should I call you? Master Zhi?"
Gu Zhiqi: "..."
After several seconds of silence, she muttered lowly in a sulky tone, "Just call me that then."
Hearing her clearly unhappy tone, Su Yunling raised his eyebrows.
Didn’t she quite like it when I called her that before?
Why is she suddenly unhappy about it?
Although puzzled, since he confirmed she didn’t like that nickname, he naturally wouldn’t make the same mistake. Instead, he tentatively said, "Zhizhi?"
Upon hearing this nickname, Gu Zhiqi’s ears moved slightly.
Suddenly, she recalled the scene at the Yun Family’s place when Su Yunling was drunk.
That night, he called her that too.
