Chapter 188 - 179 Awkwardness Abounds
Mickey instantly felt incredibly awkward and hurriedly explained, "Dad, you’ve misunderstood. He’s not my boyfriend."
"Then, that is..." Mickey’s dad chuckled awkwardly, unable to hide the disappointment on his face.
Gu Qili quickly squeezed through and, upon seeing Mu Shuoqian, was both surprised and shy,
Mu Shuoqian extended his hand, his lean fingers forming an inviting shape, his clean and gentle palm opening up to her as if revealing his heart.
Although his expression was still as faint as smoke, making it hard to guess the emotions hidden behind his delicate features.
Gu Qili pursed her lips and took small steps toward him, raising her hand into his under his intense gaze, and without any hesitation, he immediately grasped it tightly.
Then, without a word, he pulled her to leave.
Unable to resist him, Gu Qili could only walk passively forward while turning back to apologize, "Uncle, I’m sorry for the trouble for nothing."
Mickey’s dad seemed not quite to have snapped out of the sudden turn of events, but upon hearing Gu Qili’s apology, he smiled and waved, "I’m pretty free these days, Qili, come over whenever you like, uncle will always cook for you."
"Thank you, uncle, goodbye uncle," she said, and then winked at Mickey, who sent her a look that said, ’hurry up and go torment the single dogs’, before taking her dad back into the house.
