Chapter 1250: Ajiu Was Arguably Not Presentable
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Upon hearing this, Ajiu lowered her eyes and looked at her own clothes. Although there were no decorations, they were very clean and decent. There was nothing bad about them.
“Don’t say this anymore. I heard from Grandpa Bai that Ajiu is usually very sensible and saves money. After all, she knows that her surname is not Bai. It’s good to that she knows this.”
As soon as Gu Rou finished speaking, the two girls widened their eyes and looked at Ajiu in disbelief. There were some other things in their eyes. “So her surname isn’t Bai. No wonder.”
Gu Rou smiled gently. “Even if her surname isn’t Bai, Bai Zhun treats her no different from his own sister. Am I right, Ajiu?”
Without saying anything, Ajiu’s small body stood there, telling herself three times not to hit anyone. After she scooped up a cup of fruit juice, she lowered her head and drank it.
In her actions, she revealed the Buddha’s head on her wrist that Bai Zhun had put on.
Gu Rou also saw the object, and the jealousy in her eyes was replaced by surprise.
That was the Purple Jade Buddha’s head that even her grandfather wanted. It was said that it was very expensive and had reached a certain level.
She still remembered that when she first met Bai Zhun, he had come into contact with her grandfather because of the Buddha’s head and the project.
The reason why he agreed to accompany her shopping seemed to be related to this Buddha’s head.
However, she had always thought that he wanted this thing for his own use or to give to grandfather Bai.
Never had Gu Rou thought that he would give such a valuable thing to a child so casually.
As her eyes darkened, Gu Rou pretended to be surprised, although her voice was very low. Afraid that others would hear her, she whispered, “I have this thing too. Ajiu, your brother gave this to you, right? He is such a lazy person. He bought you whatever I like.”
Ajiu frowned when she heard this. She also looked down at her wrist, but her eyes were very dark. “This was specially picked for me by little brother. I can feel it.”
Gu Rou did not expect that her words could not affect this child.
It should not be like this.
After so many days, shouldn’t she already have some self-awareness?
“It is indeed different.” Gu Rou was smart because she knew how to retreat. “Mine is not of this color, and the details are also different. They are all Buddha’s heads.As with Bai Zhun, I can look at them, but I am not very used to wearing them. Unlike Ajiu, she is still young and can wear these things.”
“Gu Rou, don’t talk about a Buddha statue anymore. Quickly tell me what you have prepared for Bai Zhun.” One of the two girls obviously did not want to talk to Ajiu after knowing Ajiu’s identity. Pulling Gu Rou over, she said, “I heard that apart from the watch we bought together, you have an additional surprise for Bai Zhun.”
Just then, a faint smile appeared on Gu Rou’s gentle and moving face. “About that, I can’t tell you yet. You’ll know when we’re done cutting the cake. Bai Zhun has always wanted this. I don’t know what he’s thinking when he asked me to personally give it to him.”
“He definitely wants you to give it to him as well.” The two girls jokingly pushed her. “Don’t worry, Bai Zhun definitely won’t reject you. You’re so beautiful and you have so many betrothal gifts. Whoever marries you will definitely be happy, right?”
Instantly, Gu Rou’s face turned red. “Don’t talk nonsense. What betrothal gifts? If you guys continue like this, I won’t talk to you anymore.”
“Oh, you’re so shy.”
While listening to their conversation, Ajiu glanced at the Purple Jade Buddha head on her hand.
If her little brother really confirmed his relationship with Gu Rou in a while, her Little Ala shouldn’t need to be sent away.
Perhaps it was because she was too young that she was treated as a child again and again.
In fact, the little brother didn’t have to worry about her at all.
She wouldn’t cry because of such a thing, even if it was very uncomfortable.
She was clear that no matter what the little brother did, he never intended to hurt her.
It was just that what she said to the second brother was true. She always wanted to beat him up.
At that time, she would make things difficult for the little brother.
Now, the little brother had already delayed his time in order to wait for her.
Therefore, she could no longer be “immature”.
However, could it be an illusion?
The smell of meat that used to be very unpleasant was very faint today. It was as if it had been isolated by something. As it entered her nostrils, it was replaced by a faint sandalwood scent.
That smell was very familiar to Ajiu. When she lived in the temple and read in the morning, she would often smell it.
Every time when the master who began to recite the Scriptures, the great hall would light up three incense sticks. While her senior brother knocked the wooden fish on it, she would sit next to him and meditate. That was the smell from the past.
Ajiu wrinkled her small nose. That smell was faintly discernible, so it was not easy to catch it.
The strange thing was that the people around did not smell anything. The discussion topic of the wives shifted from Bai Zhun to Gu Rou.
With her small physique, Ajiu was ignored by everyone as she stood by the side.
In addition, there were already many guests here. Other than Bai Zhun who protected her, the rest of the people had their eyes on Gu Rou, who was wearing a white sand-woven dress. It was not because of anything else, but because they had also heard about it, it was said that the Bai and Gu families were going to have a social gathering.
Of course, this news was a bit untrue, but they were of the same age after all. It might really be possible.
They were all in the same circle. In addition, Gu Rou was grandfather Gu’s granddaughter, so the frequency of people praising her was naturally higher.
“Grandfather Gu is really lucky to have raised such an outstanding granddaughter.”
“That’s true. Didn’t you see the background of the Gu Family?”
“I don’t know if she has a boyfriend. I really want to go over and get to know her.”
“Alright, you don’t have to think about it anymore. She’s the school belle of High School No. 2. She’s a couple with young master Bai. They’re a perfect match. Although they haven’t confirmed their relationship yet, do you think you can match Young Master Bai? Just forget it.”
Gu Rou listened to the discussions by her ears. Not only did she not stop them, she even smiled.
Then, she walked to Ajiu’s side and said, “Ajiu, your brother is going to deliver his speech soon. Did you buy him a gift? There is a gift pool over there. If you have it, it’s best to put it there. It’s convenient for your brother to open it later.”
Ajiu didn’t say anything.
Gu Cheng saw her face through the crowd and walked over with big steps. He was holding a glass of wine in his hand. “Hey, why are you so late?”
“You only know how to drink. Ajiu arrived a while ago and didn’t bring anything with her. I reminded her to put a gift on her,” Gu Rou said with a faint smile.
Raising his eyebrows, Gu Cheng said, “Indeed, you should put a gift on her. Little Bean, where are the lighters you bought for your brother?”
“Lighters?” One of the girls heard this and laughed softly. “Ajiu, it’s your brother’s birthday, and you’re giving him a lighter? This is too much…”
