Chapter 212 -212: Why would his sister be in Luo Fan’s office?
“Mm, I know,” Qiaoqiao said, “you also need to be safe in the Imperial Capital. Dad never wants a life of wealth and glory; all he wants is for our family to be safe and well.”
Qiaoqiao’s nose felt sore, and her voice was slightly choked up as she said, “Don’t worry, Dad, our family will be safe and well for a lifetime.”
“Qiaoqiao, let’s hang up,” her father said. “This is all very sudden, and I need some time to calm down and digest it properly.”
“Okay, Dad. Goodbye.”
“Mm, Qiaoqiao, goodbye.”
The father and daughter hung up the phone at the same time.
At that moment, Gu Qiaoqiao felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off her shoulders. She guessed that today’s news would give her father enough to ponder over the whole night.
Gu Qiaoqiao calmed her emotions and walked out of the study with a serene demeanor.
Dinner was still lavish, and the atmosphere was harmonious.
Chu Chengfeng and Qin Xiaoyu bantered back and forth, while Grandma Qin watched them with a smile.
Clearly, such scenes were commonplace.
Nevertheless, Gu Qiaoqiao noticed that after each verbal spar with Chu Chengfeng, Qin Xiaoyu would sneak a glance at Chengfeng.
Chengfeng, on the other hand, seemed oblivious, though he would raise an eyebrow, appearing rather smug.
Gu Qiaoqiao thought that Qin Xiaoyu was at an age when young love begins.
Just like she had been.
But obviously, Qin Xiaoyu would be much luckier than her.
The night deepened.
The watery moonlight enveloped the ancient yet youthful city.
Gu Qiaoqiao lay quietly in bed, the window open as gentle night breezes swept through, bringing a faint coolness to the room.
She didn’t switch off the light but instead looked at the documents in her hands.
Gu Cheng, Deputy Chief of a department in the Security Department.
Gu Jianhua, a talented graduate of a prestigious university, joined Ning Wanru’s headquarters in the Imperial Capital after graduation and was now the general manager of a branch office.
Gu Jiansheng, a university graduate working at Yubao Square, had a passion for photography.
Gu Yajing, deputy director of a magazine company.
There were also two children; one in high school and another in college.
Rumors had it that the college student was on good terms with Luo Fan, and their families were considering a marriage alliance.
Luo Fan?
That beautiful man with peach blossom eyes who neither smiled nor spoke much. Qianqian must like him a lot.
If the two families were to unite in marriage, it would indeed provide a huge backing for Gu Cheng.
A huge backing?
Gu Qiaoqiao snorted coldly to herself.
She set that thought aside for the moment, as Gu Yajing was of utmost importance now.
To think she dared to delay her father’s manuscript.
She was curious to see how Director Yu would handle this.
And ultimately, would they pull strings through Luo Fan?
Without a second thought, she rose from her bed and made her way toward the study outside.
She wasn’t sure if she could reach Luo Fan at this hour, but it was worth a try.
Perhaps it was fate.
As soon as Gu Qiaoqiao’s call connected, the other side picked up.
Then a girl’s sweet voice rang out, “Hello, who are you looking for?”
Gu Qiaoqiao was taken aback and raised her voice involuntarily, “Gu Qianqian!”
Why would her little sister be in Luo Fan’s office?
“Sister,” it was her sister’s voice, “you’re Sister, Sister, I’ve missed you so much, you haven’t called for more than a week…”
Gu Qianqian’s crisp voice chirped cheerfully from the other end of the phone.
But that’s not the point.
Gu Qiaoqiao neatly interrupted Gu Qianqian’s endless chatter. It was nine in the evening. Why was her sister in Luo Fan’s office?
Where’s Luo Fan?
“Qianqian, why are you in Luo Fan’s office? Aren’t you supposed to be in class? Where’s Luo Fan?” Gu Qiaoqiao asked in rapid succession.
“Sister, school is out for three days, so I rode with Brother Luo Fan to deliver some luggage to Brother Chang Qing. It was all prepared by our mom, and Brother Luo Fan has gone out to buy some food for Chang Qing and me…?” Gu Qianqian described in a swift torrent of words.
“Is Chang Qing with you, too?” Gu Qiaoqiao’s voice finally softened. So that’s how it was.
It really gave her quite a scare.
There’s no denying that Luo Fan is a good person and very outstanding, but her sister is still so young, and at an age where it’s easy to be swayed by emotions.
Right now, studying is what’s most important.
No matter if they can return to the Gu Family in the future, her sister must attend university in this lifetime.
And it has to be the best one.
In this lifetime, she would personally see her sister through the gates of university.
“Hmm.” Gu Qianqian, unaware of Gu Qiaoqiao’s thoughts, merely hummed in acknowledgment before turning to Chang Qing, who was beside her, “Brother Chang Qing, Sister is on the phone. Do you want to talk to her?”
The lights in Luo Fan’s office were bright and shining.
Chang Qing’s gaze shifted to the phone. On the other end was his Sister Qiaoqiao.
And he had finally realized that Sister Qiaoqiao was becoming increasingly distant from him.
Still, he forced a smile, picked up the phone, and said with a raspy voice, “Sister Qiaoqiao, it’s Chang Qing…”
On the other end of the phone, Gu Qiaoqiao finally completely let go of her worries. Her voice was especially cheerful, “Chang Qing, I heard from Luo Fan that your exams went well, just as expected, right?”
“Yes, Sister Qiaoqiao, just as expected.”
“I knew you’d be the best. How’s your work life going?”
“Very good. I no longer have to listen to scolding at mealtime. I really like my current life. Brother Luo Fan is a good man.”
“Yes, Brother Luo Fan is indeed not bad. And don’t feel burdened. Focus on your studies and work hard. You’ll become an outstanding person just like Brother Luo Fan one day.”
Gu Qiaoqiao softly encouraged.
“I understand, Sister Qiaoqiao. How about you? How are you doing now?”
“I’m doing quite well.”
“Brother Luo Fan, you’re finally back. I’m so hungry I could die. Oh, and my sister is on the phone looking for you.” When Gu Qianqian saw Luo Fan push the door open, her sparkling eyes instantly lit up with a bright glow.

Luo Fan thought that he had often seen literati describe someone’s eyes as if they were full of sunshine.
Bright and splendid.
He always found it somewhat exaggerated.
But the girl under the light, her eyes indeed looked just like that.
He stood in the doorway, gazing at Gu Qianqian as she rushed over, eyes fixed on the food, taking it eagerly from his hands, opening a box, and hastily stuffing a small bun into her mouth.
Her cheeks puffed out instantly.
A twinge of guilt passed through his heart. Gu Qianqian was still a child and not used to being hungry.
The last time he took her to eat was at three in the afternoon.
Then, dealing with an unexpected incident, he had neglected dinner time.
He led Gu Qianqian to the break room, placed all the food on the table, and said gently, “You must be starving. It’s all my fault for coming back so late.”
“It’s okay, it’s okay. Food tastes best when you’re hungry. Go take the call, Brother Luo Fan. My sister must be calling you for something important.”
“Alright, eat slowly. I’ll take you out for a big meal tomorrow,” he promised.
“Really?”
“Yes, really.”
“Is the big meal you’re talking about as delicious as the ones my sister makes?” Gu Qianqian asked very earnestly.
Of course, it wasn’t.
