Chapter 782 Fishing Scheming Boy X Indifferent Uncle 16

Because he was about to drive, Gu Jinyan pressed the hands-free button. In an instant, a familiar male voice came clearly from the other end of the phone along with the current.

The voice was so familiar, so familiar that Shen Xi only had to listen once to instantly identify who was on the other end of the phone - Master He.

Shen Xi secretly complained in his heart, "Master He, why are you here again?"

Recalling what Master He said on the phone, Shen Xi guessed that he must have been abroad in the past few years. No wonder he had never heard of him.

In Shen Xi's memory, during the days when Gu Jinyan carefully protected him, his life was filled with only each other's company, and the troubles of the outside world seemed to be isolated.

Gu Jinyan's mind was full of thoughts about taking Shen Xi back home to have a good rest, and he had no intention of accepting Master He's invitation at all.

He frowned slightly and was about to refuse, but Shen Xi suddenly tugged at his sleeve gently, and said in a cold voice with a hint of expectation: "Uncle, I want to go too. Can you take me with you?"

Shen Xi's bright eyes were full of curiosity and desire, making it impossible for Gu Jinyan to say no.

A hint of doubt appeared between Gu Jinyan's brows. Facing Shen Xi, he completely forgot that there was someone on the other end of the phone waiting for his answer.

"Xixi has worked so hard today, aren't you tired? Don't you want to go back and rest quickly?"

Gu Jinyan's voice was full of heartache. He gently touched Shen Xi's head, trying to persuade him to give up the idea of ​​going to the bar.

Shen Xi had no intention of backing down. He took Gu Jinyan's arm, with a sweet smile on his face, and shook his head like a spoiled kitten: "I'm not very tired. I just finished the exam today. Can't uncle take me out to play and relax?"

Facing his coquettish look, how could Gu Jinyan refuse? He nodded lovingly to Shen Xi, and then said to the person on the other end of the phone in a much colder tone: "Okay, I'll come over later."

Master He on the other end of the phone seemed to have known Gu Jinyan's character for a long time, so when faced with his previous snub, he was not too angry, but smiled and responded: "Then you better hurry up, if you are late you will have to drink a penalty."

After listening to what he said, Gu Jinyan did not answer him, but reached out and hung up the phone.

The car drove slowly, and the street scene outside the window slowly receded like a slide.

The car was too quiet, no one was talking, and the atmosphere was inevitably a bit dull. Shen Xi didn't like this kind of silence, but there was nothing he could do. Gu Jinyan was concentrating on driving and not talking, so he had to bring up the topic himself.

"Who was that person that uncle called you? You seemed to be very close to him."

Shen Xi tilted his head, curiosity gleaming in his eyes.

When Gu Jinyan heard him say this, he couldn't help but sneer: "How can Xixi be close? He is just a very good friend of uncle, and grew up with uncle. But he went abroad eight years ago and just came back now."

"A very good friend?" Shen Xi asked, his eyes full of inquiry.

"Yeah." Gu Jinyan responded simply, his eyes always focused on the road ahead.

Shen Xi estimated that he was 18 years old now, and the lie that his father was still alive should have been exposed.

"Does that mean his relationship with his uncle is as good as the relationship between my father and his uncle?"

When he heard the word "Dad", the smile on Gu Jinyan's face obviously froze, and it took a long time for it to return to normal.

Ever since Gu Jinyan brought him back, he seldom mentioned anything about his parents. Because he was afraid that Shen Xi would think too much, he hardly mentioned anything related to his parents.

Now that it was suddenly brought up, Gu Jinyan didn't quite know how to respond. The smile on his face remained frozen for a long while before it softened again.

"Yes, we have an equally good relationship. He also knows your father, and the three of us are very good friends. You should call him uncle."

Gu Jinyan tried his best to make his tone sound more natural.

Shen Xi thought about Master He's despicable look. Even without seeing him, he could imagine how long he would laugh at him if he called him uncle in front of him.

Thinking of this, he shook his head decisively: "No, you are my only uncle."

Faced with him like this, Gu Jinyan didn't say anything.

In fact, he didn't really want Shen Xi to call other people uncle. In his heart, the bond between him and Shen Xi was unique and irreplaceable.
