With that, Little Five looked at the mountainous piles of files with a faint smile. The others immediately got what he meant. Yes, it was Young Master who made Gu Yun work like a dog! No matter what Young Master asked him to do, he would do it without any complaints… Well, no, he would do it even though he wanted to complain about it!
Gu Yun was going to retort when his cellphone rang. He took a look at the caller ID and unconsciously stood upright. He picked up the phone and said, “Young Master.”
On this side, Tang Xi was sitting beside Qiao Liang and watching him making the phone call. Qiao Liang helplessly rubbed her hair. “Come to the First High School of City A by taxi and pick me up. Bring me breakfast too. I haven’t had any yet. “Qiao Liang took a look at Tang Xi, coughed and paused. “A nutritious breakfast at that please. I’m waiting for you here.”
He then hung up the phone.
Gu Yun, holding his cellphone, was stunned. Who could tell him what happened? He remembered Young Master drove his car out. Why did he ask him to pick him up from the First High School of City A? And Young Master, who never ate breakfast, asked him to buy him a “nutritious breakfast”?
Gu Yun hung up the phone, looked at Little Five and asked with a straight face. “Then do you also know who can subdue Young Master?”
Little Five raised his eyebrows. “Was this call from Young Master?”
Gu Yun nodded. Little Five looked at the confused look of Gu Yun and asked curiously, “What did he ask you to do?”
Gu Yun took a look at his cellphone to make sure it was not his illusion, and looked at Little Five. “He asked me to pick him up by taxi.”

“Ha?” Little Five wondered. “But he drove his car out.”
Gu Yun nodded blankly and said, “Not only that. He asked me to bring him a nutritious breakfast…”
Little Five’s jaw almost dropped. “Young Master? A nutritious breakfast? Did you hear him right?”
Gu Yun sneered. “You can call and check with him.”
With that, he walked blankly outside, went downstairs and bought a nutritious breakfast in the pedestrian street opposite to the company. He then headed for the First High School of City A by taxi.
Tang Xi didn’t get out of the car and go to the school until Qiao Liang hung up the phone. She still urged Qiao Liang to go home to sleep and have breakfast, before she left. Qiao Liang nodded and finally said helplessly, “You only have five minutes left. Are you sure you’re going to keep talking to me here?”
Tang Xi found it had been eight twenty five. She exclaimed with a shout, “Alas, it’s all your fault. I have to worry about you all the time! I’m late for class because of you! Don’t you feel ashamed making me, a girl, worry about you, an uncle?!”
Stunned by her words, Qiao Liang looked at Tang Xi who was in school uniform and was running into the school with a school bag on her back, then slowly looked at himself in the rear mirror like a robot, and blinked. “Uncle?”
“F*ck!” Qiao Liang who had always been calm said the first dirty word in his life. “How could she call me an uncle?!” Looking at the flawless face in the mirror, Qiao Liang was wondering why Tang Xi called him, a handsome young man, an uncle?
They were of the same age… Sh*t! Did she forget she was also 23 years old?
Gu Yun got of the car with a big breakfast only to see a luxury car in front of the gate of the First High School of City A. He came over, knocked on the car window and opened the door…

Soon he regretted it. Why did Young Master look so unhappy? Did anyone mess up in front of him? Did he come at the wrong time?
Before he said anything, Qiao Liang asked him coldly, “Did you come here on foot?”
Gu Yun looked at his watch. It had merely been fifteen minutes. He had come here as soon as he could, alright?
“Young Master, I came by taxi. Here is your breakfast.” Gu Yun handed the breakfast to Qiao Liang. Qiao Liang looked at the breakfast, frowned and said angrily, “It’s already become cold!”
Gu Yun, “…” Nonsense! It was still hot when I got of the car. Your cold aura turned it cold! You can’t blame me!
…
“Well, Young Master… where are we going?” Gu Yun looked back at Qiao Liang who was sitting at the back seat and eating the breakfast that he bought on an almost empty stomach.
“My home.” With that, he continued to eat the breakfast. After taking the hot breakfast, Qiao Liang felt much better.
He raised his eyebrows and finished breakfast with great satisfaction. Gu Yun who was tempted by the aroma of the food, swallowed his saliva and tried to comfort himself. You ate two stuffed buns on the way, so you are not hungry at all.
Just then, Qiao Liang who had been full suddenly looked up at Gu Yun. “Have some breakfast?”
Gu Yun was so moved he said, “Thank you, Young Master.” He then reached out for the rest of the breakfast, but Qiao Liang put the breakfast on the other side. “It’s dangerous. You can have breakfast later.”
Gu Yun, “…” Young Master, are you teasing me?
At this time, the car passed by a skin care product center. Qiao Liang suddenly asked Gu Yun to pull over. Gu Yun slammed on the brakes, looked back at Qiao Liang with a questioning gaze and asked, “Young Master, what’s up?”
Qiao Liang remained expressionless. He then looked at Gu Yun with earnest eyes. Gu Yun felt his heart suddenly jerk. “God, what’s wrong with the Young Master today?! Why does he look so strange?” Qiao Liang asked after pausing for about two minutes, “Do you think I look like an uncle?”
“What?” Gu Yun was stunned. Young Master, if you’re an uncle, then what are we? Grandfathers?
Qiao Liang, “I think my skin is not in a good condition recently. Do you think I should do some skin care routines? Do I look old?”
“No… I don’t think so…” Gu Yun was crying in his heart. What’s wrong with you Young Master?! You never cared about your skin before. Why did you suddenly want to care for your skin?!
Qiao Liang frowned. “I really think my skin is not in a good condition recently.” He looked up at Gu Yun. “Go to that skin-care shop and buy me some masks, and other kinds of skin-care products.”
Gu Yun, “… Young Master, are you sure?”
He remembered when Ninth Young Master asked Young Master to do some skin care regimens before, he looked at Ninth Young Master with disgust look and called him ‘flower boy’. Was he possessed by a ghost?
Seeing Gu Yun frown and look worried, Qiao Liang asked, “Is there a problem?”
“No problem!” Gu Yun opened the car door. “I’m going to buy them right away! Which kind of mask would you like, Young Master?”
“The most popular mask… among young lads!” Qiao Liang said with a straight face and thought proudly, “I’m also a young lad!”
