"Who are you?"
An unusually handsome young man suddenly turned the corner behind the Ai Ci. His milky-colored short hair was slightly curly, and his light blue pupils revealed an arrogant look. "How can you talk to my A Ci like that?"
Percifek strode to the Ai Ci's side and naturally put one hand on the Ai Ci's shoulder. His eyes were full of hostility and disdain when he looked at Gu Ting.
The Ai Ci pulled his hand away with a dark face and turned to look at him. "Why are you following me?"
"You left behind the flowers I sent, my dear."
Facing the Ai Ci, Percifek's arrogant expression instantly changed into a bright smile. His tone was gentle, and he handed over a colorful coral branch. The end was actually wrapped tightly with dark green kelp and tied into a crooked bow.
"… You can take it first."
The Ai Ci looked at the "flowers" for a long time, but in the end, she did not reach out to take it.
There was no other reason other than the fact that the bouquet of coral flowers made by Percifec was too ugly. Red and green, long and short, curved and straight, they were forcefully pieced together without any sense of beauty.
Also, what was the meaning of using kelp as a bandage?? Why didn't you use seaweed?
The Ai Ci did not want to accept the flowers at first sight. She had deliberately left them on the beach, but she did not expect Percifek to chase after her.
Percifek smiled. "Okay, I'll help you send them to your room."
Percifek grabbed the Ai Ci's wrist and was about to pull her to her room. He completely ignored Gu Ting, who was standing in front of him, and did not care if he had answered the question just now.
Unlike the Ai Ci who had been in human society for a long time, Percifek lived in the sparsely populated Pacific Ocean all year round and had always disdained to interact with humans.
This was because, as an extremely powerful existence, humans were simply too weak to him.
It was just like how humans would not have any thoughts of dealing with ants when they saw them.
The Ai Ci let him pull her, but she stood still. "Wait a minute." She turned her gaze to Gu Ting. He looked serious and stared at her deeply.
The Ai Ci felt a little helpless in her heart. Fine, the truth is out.
Gu Ting glanced at the Ai Ci's wrist, which was grabbed by Percifek, and asked, "Ai Ci, who is this?"
Ai Ci and Percifek spoke in unison.
Ai Ci: "My friend."
Percifek: "Her boyfriend."
Ai Ci glared at Percifek and pinched his waist.
Percifek: "Okay, okay, ex-boyfriend."
Another ex-boyfriend?
If the man in Changbai Mountain was also her ex-boyfriend, this was already the third Ai Ci's ex-boyfriend that Gu Ting had met.
Looking at his deep facial features and high nose bridge, Ai Ci's ex-boyfriends always seemed to be imported.
Gu Ting asked again, "So you went out early in the morning to …"
Before he could finish, Percifek answered first, "Can't you see? She wanted to go on a date with me. Hiss — "
Ai Ci pinched him again. "Go, go, go, go, go, go, go! You forced me to go out. "Her tone was irritable and she did not hold back. She did not care about maintaining her image.
For a moment, Gu Ting felt like he had returned to the parking lot in the capital and saw the violent beauty again.
Ai Ci turned to face Gu Ting and smiled very gently. "Sorry, boss, this guy's brain is not good. You don't have to worry about him."
Percifek was a little dissatisfied. "Why are you apologizing to a human?"
Gu Ting glanced at him. A human? Ha, and a chuunibyou.
"Are you provoking me with that look? Do you want to fight? "Percifek said as he rolled up his sleeves and stared fiercely at Gu Ting.
Percifek looked like an exquisite mixed-race handsome young man, but in fact, he had a bad temper. He was only calm when he was with Ai Ci.
But the first time he saw Gu Ting, he had an inexplicable feeling that he did not like him very much.
Percifek's heart was burning with anger. The typhoon outside the house seemed to have suddenly increased the wind force. The windows were rattling and shaking, and the raindrops were almost hitting the glass as if it were hailstones.
"Don't you never fight with ordinary humans?"
Ai Ci pulled Percifek with one hand and reminded him softly. Her eyes met Gu Ting's eyes, and she secretly pointed at her head with her other hand. She shook her head and mouthed to Gu Ting. "His brain is not good, please understand."
"Can we talk alone?" Gu Ting asked.
Ai Ci: "Yes."
She pushed Percifek. "Go to the room and stay there. Don't eavesdrop."
Percifek: "No! You two are alone, under the melon fields, under the plum flowers, under the moonlight … "
What the hell was with this messy idiom?
Ai Ci looked at Percifek with a smile and said softly, "Want, to, fight?"
…
After Percifek closed the door, Gu Ting finally said, "Who are you?"
"Ai Ci."
"I'm asking about your identity."
"Lin Qing's cousin."
Gu Ting narrowed his eyes and no longer entangled himself in the identity issue.
"What's your purpose in approaching me?"
"To be your assistant."
"What's your purpose in being my assistant?"
"To support my family."
"…"
After beating around the bush, Gu Ting didn't get anything out of her. He took a deep breath and calmed himself down before asking again.
"What's with the surveillance footage?"
"What do you mean?"
"You clearly went out, why didn't the surveillance footage show you?"
"Oh, it's like this. This friend of mine actually ran away from home. His family's situation is very complicated, so I won't say much. In short, in order to avoid being discovered by his family, we tampered with the surveillance footage …"
She was full of lies.
Gu Ting's expression became more and more unpleasant. "I believe that Ling Ge has his reasons for asking you to be my assistant. Don't be perfunctory. Tell me the real reason."
Before the Ai Ci could answer, her door suddenly opened with a click.
"A Ci, your phone is ringing." Percifek finally found an excuse to poke his head out of the room. He held her phone in his hand and looked excited. He accidentally pressed the answer button.
Lin Qing's loud voice immediately came from the phone.
"Oh, Master, where have you been? Why did you only answer the phone now? Gu Ting just called me to question our relationship. What did you do to give yourself away? Gu Ting is starting to get suspicious. I can't fool him anymore. If he comes to interrogate you, you must hold on. You must not say that I invited you to exorcise him! "
Ai Ci: …
I did hold on, but you didn't.
"Exorcise?" Gu Ting stared intently at the Ai Ci and asked word by word.
"Eh, Master, what did you say? Is the signal not very good because of the typhoon? I can't hear you clearly. But what's wrong with your voice? Did it suddenly change? You guys are really swindlers. You can even change … "
Lin Qing was still blabbering on. The Ai Ci was already convinced by her talkative teammate. She silently held her forehead.
"It's me, Gu Ting." Gu Ting's voice was indifferent.
The phone seemed to have been muted all of a sudden.
After a strange silence.
"Oh, Gu Ting." Lin Qing dragged his voice and quickly reacted. His tone immediately changed. "Haha, I thought that the Ai Ci used a voice changer to tease me. Okay, I have to go see what's going on on the Internet. There are really a lot of things to do. I'm very busy. I'll hang up first. "
He spat out a long string of words like a cannonball and hung up the phone without waiting for Gu Ting to speak.
