Chapter 115: Chapter 115: In order to get his wife back, he’s been practising the art of apple-peeling

As he spoke, Song Chen took out a knife from the fruit basket and started peeling the apple seriously.

Gu Manxi: “…”

Lu Shanhe rolled his eyes and cursed him for being hypocritical.

Gu Manxi was completely speechless and her anger dissipated.

When she was with Song Chen in the past, she knew all the “quirks” of President Song. He was a germaphobe, stayed far away from the kitchen, a picky eater, and a workaholic. His life was occupied by work.

Such a standard overbearing president would definitely not peel an apple.

After five years, Gu Manxi pursed her lips when she saw Song Chen start peeling an apple with ease. She did not scold him anymore.

Song Chen was secretly happy while peeling an apple. Sharpening a knife did not delay the work of chopping wood. In order to chase his wife and daughter, he practiced peeling an apple late at night. Finally, he learned something.

Now, Manxi should be very touched.

Soon, the apple was ready. Song Chen happily handed it to Gu Manxi and said, “Have a taste?”

Gu Manxi took the apple and said, “I remember that you never peeled apples before. You basically don’t touch fruits with skins.”

Song Chen raised the corners of his mouth and smiled beautifully. “I learned it.”

Song Chen thought that Manxi must be very touched!

Heh!

Gu Manxi pursed her lips and muttered softly, “Miss Cheng is always sick. You learned to peel apples to take care of her. I understand.”

Song Chen: …

Song Chen: ? ? ? ?

Song Chen hurriedly explained, “No, it’s not like that. I only started to practice peeling apples half a month ago. I also practiced playing with play dough, computer games, and I even learned how to cook. This has nothing to do with Cheng Qingyun!”

Song Chen was dumbfounded. Were all women’s brains so elegant and refined?

For the sake of the two of you, I practiced peeling peaches, peaches, and avocados in the middle of the night. I even cut my hand a few times. Now you actually suspect me of peeling apples for Cheng Qingyun?

He had never been this wrongly accused!

Gu Manxi didn’t say a word and took a bite of the apple.

Lu Shanhe looked at Song Chen as if he was looking at an idiot from the year 1982.

Gu Chu, who was watching from the side, sighed in her heart. Wasn’t her father supposed to be the aloof and cunning president? Song Chen should be able to summon the clouds and rain like God. He should be the cold, arrogant boss who would say, “The weather is getting cold, and it’s about time for the Wang Corporation to go bankrupt!”

Why? Recently, she was starting to feel that her father had the potential to become an idiot.

…

Gu Chu’s arm was treated briefly before she could get out of bed. Gu Manxi knew that it was Zhang Qi who had saved her daughter, so she immediately brought Gu Chu to thank him.

The glass in Zhang Qi’s leg had already been removed. The wound was not deep, and his physique was good. He would recover in a week or two.

Zhang Qi was currently lying on the hospital bed resting. He was 1.8 meters tall and strong. His face was pale and dark. You could see the scars on his body which marked his long years of turmoil.

Gu Chu looked at Zhang Qi, and the plot of Zhang Qi in the original novel quickly appeared in her mind. In the original novel, Zhang Qi was a side character with only a few lines. He became famous because of his outstanding performance in Lu Shanhe’s movie.

However, later on, Zhang Qi was deeply involved in a cheating scandal. His wife, who was usually on the same level as him, divorced him in anger. Zhang Qi lost both his money and his reputation. His reputation fell drastically, and he became an unimportant actor once again. He worked hard at the bottom level for a few years, and in the end, he died due to overwork.

He was quite a pitiful actor.

However, this person was quite upright and had a sense of loyalty. Would he really cheat in the future? Or was someone trying to frame him? Gu Chu secretly planned to investigate Zhang Qi’s personal situation when the time was right. She had to repay the favor of saving her life.

On the other end, Zhang Qi heard the commotion at the door. He turned around and suddenly stared at Gu Manxi with his eyes wide open:

“You… You’re Miss Gu Ruoxi?”
