Flash Marriage: He is a Wife-pampering Addict

Chapter 1434: 1433 Don’t be so shy

Bai Yiyi put Tongtong to sleep and returned to the room, seeing Gu Kai sitting on the sofa, idly playing a mobile game.

“Didn’t I ask you to go back first? Why haven’t you left?”

Bai Yiyi walked to the front of the sofa, frowning as she looked at him.

Gu Kai looked up, meeting her displeased gaze. He smiled, exited the game, placed his phone on the coffee table, opened the drawer, and took out a tube of ointment, “This is for you.”

“What is it?”

Bai Yiyi’s eyes flashed with a hint of confusion as she hesitantly reached out her hand.

Gu Kai took her hand with the momentum, pulling her to sit beside him, and waved the ointment before her eyes, gently explaining, “Didn’t I say this afternoon to go to the hospital to get you some ointment? I got it then, but Aunt Bai was there, and I didn’t have the chance to give it to you.”

“You, I don’t need this.”

Bai Yiyi’s face heated up, a hint of shyness coloring her brows.

Gu Kai watched her reddened cheeks and chuckled softly, “Yiyi, we’re both adults. You don’t need to be so shy.”

His voice paused slightly, then he suddenly leaned in, his thin lips close to her ear, lowering his voice playfully, “If we’re together more often, you won’t be so shy anymore.”

Bai Yiyi glared at him, her face red, attempting to move away.

Gu Kai laughed and held onto her, not letting go, despite Bai Yiyi’s struggle to pull her hand from his grasp, “Ranran said, Fang Zhiwei and Xiaocha are together. Let go, I’m calling Xiaocha.”

“You called Ranran?”

Gu Kai released her hand, his gaze warm as he looked at her.

Bai Yiyi took out her phone, dialed Jing Xiaocha’s number, and explained, “I just spoke with Ranran on the phone. She said that Fang Zhiwei returned to G City alone, while Jing Xiaocha and Lu Zhiyan took the next flight back. Now they’re together.”

“How did Lu Zhiyan let Fang Zhiwei come back alone?”

Gu Kai’s brows furrowed slightly, his tone a bit displeased.

“You can’t blame Lu Zhiyan. It seems Fang Zhiwei sneaked away.” As she spoke, the ringing stopped, and Jing Xiaocha’s voice came through: “Hey, Sister Yiyi.”

“Xiaocha, where are you now?”

“Brother Lu and I just dropped off Sister Fang home. We’re preparing to go back now.”

Bai Yiyi pondered slightly, seeking advice, “Xiaocha, I’d like to learn a few things from you…”

“Yiyi, give me the phone.”

Bai Yiyi hadn’t finished speaking when Gu Kai domineeringly took the phone from her. Because he was close to Bai Yiyi, he heard Jing Xiaocha’s words on the phone clearly.

Taking the phone, he said, “Jing Xiaocha, let Zhiyan come to the phone.”

“Oh, wait a moment.”

Jing Xiaocha was slightly surprised, and after a short moment, Lu Zhiyan’s voice entered his ear, and Gu Kai asked calmly, “How is Fang Zhiwei doing?”

“Still the same.”

“Bring Jing Xiaocha and come over once…”

***

Twenty minutes later, Lu Zhiyan and Jing Xiaocha arrived at Bai Yiyi’s house together.

In the living room, Jing Xiaocha detailed Fang Zhiwei’s situation over the past few days to Bai Yiyi and Gu Kai, with Lu Zhiyan occasionally adding a comment.

After listening to Jing Xiaocha’s account, Bai Yiyi turned to Gu Kai, her face full of surprise, “Fang Zhiwei’s mother…”

“Yes, I heard from Fang Zhiwei before that her mother was abducted as a child, then adopted by two different families for several years. Because she was too young when abducted and so much time had passed, when Sister Fang’s mother tried to find her family later, she couldn’t.”

Gu Kai was also surprised by Jing Xiaocha’s account. But compared to Bai Yiyi’s shock, he was relatively calm.

“So, Grandma Li really is Fang Zhiwei’s grandmother?” Bai Yiyi still couldn’t believe it; it was too coincidental.

Jing Xiaocha’s emotions were still excited, “Yes, it’s true. Grandma Li’s daughter’s birthmark matches exactly with Sister Fang’s mother’s. Plus, Sister Fang said her mother only remembered eating Zodiac dumplings as a child, which were only eaten during celebrations, making the memory particularly memorable.”

This statement brought joy to Bai Yiyi’s face, “That’s good. After Professor Fang passed away, Fang Zhiwei lost her relatives, and now she’s found her grandmother, she has family again.”

“Yes, for Fang Zhiwei this is definitely a happy matter. Tonight after meeting her grandmother, her mood lifted immediately.”

Lu Zhiyan gently added, and then smiled and said to Jing Xiaocha, “Xiaocha, you’ve done a great deed this time. If not for you, Fang Zhiwei wouldn’t have recognized her grandmother. It’s good for all of us that she now has family.”

“Xiaocha, thank you for your hard work these past few days.”

Bai Yiyi also said with a smile.

Jing Xiaocha felt a bit embarrassed at their praise and smiled modestly, “It’s what I should do. Sister Yiyi, Doctor Gu, I think Sister Fang just needs time and care. Now that she’s connected with Grandma Li, eventually she’ll be able to put things behind.”

The last sentence was said gently by Jing Xiaocha.

Everyone present understood she was referring to her father’s death and her feelings for Gu Kai.

“Let’s hope so.”

Bai Yiyi sighed softly, “Originally, I wanted to meet Fang Zhiwei, but after hearing what Xiaocha said, I’m more inclined to meet Grandma Li.”

Now that Grandma Li is Fang Zhiwei’s grandmother, her care will surely be accepted by Fang Zhiwei, and her words will likely be taken to heart.

Jing Xiaocha readily agreed, “No problem, Sister Yiyi. Whenever you want to meet Grandma Li, I’ll take you there. Grandma Li doesn’t know about these things yet; once she does, she’ll surely advise Sister Fang.”

Next to her, Gu Kai’s phone suddenly rang.

It was a call from Fang Zhiwei. He furrowed his brows, considering whether to answer.

“Answer it. She’s probably telling you about her reunion with her grandmother.” Bai Yiyi spoke in a calm and peaceful tone, not at all jealous of Fang Zhiwei’s call.

Gu Kai answered the call with a calm “Hey.”

Sure enough, Fang Zhiwei’s voice, carrying a hint of happiness, came through, “Ah Kai, I’ve got good news for you. I’ve helped my mother find her family.”

Gu Kai’s lips curled into a smile, feigning surprise, “Zhiwei, really? You’ve helped your mother find her family? When did this happen?”

“Just tonight. It’s all thanks to Xiaocha. Remember the dumplings we made on New Year’s Eve? The Grandma Li Xiaocha mentioned is actually my grandmother…”

Fang Zhiwei became more and more excited as she spoke, truly overjoyed.

Her mother died early, and she had no siblings, living with her father. Recently, after her father’s death, she was left alone.

Though she had an aunt, cousins, she wasn’t very close to them.

Now that she found her grandmother, how could she not be happy?

“Zhiwei, congratulations. That really is good news. Grandma Li is actually your grandmother; you must thank Jing Xiaocha well.” As Gu Kai spoke, his gaze swept over Jing Xiaocha and then looked at Bai Yiyi.
