Chapter 145: Trash-Talking Gu Yizhou

Chapter 145: Chapter 145: Trash-Talking Gu Yizhou

After a moment of thought, Gu Yizhou said, "Xiaobai, are you still mad that Daddy accidentally lifted you up just now?"

"Come on now, be a good kitty, Xiaobai. Daddy didn’t do it on purpose!"

"I just got carried away for a moment and couldn’t help myself! I really didn’t mean to!"

Yan Luoxi was speechless.

’Idiot!’

’Who’s even mad about that?!’

’You don’t even know why I’m mad. Just go die!’

Yan Luoxi angrily whipped her head to the side, refusing to even look at that infuriating bastard, Gu Yizhou!

"Alright, be a good kitty, Xiaobai. Don’t be mad anymore!"

Gu Yizhou reached out and poked Yan Luoxi’s belly, a wide grin on his face as he spoke.

"Meow!"

’Don’t touch me!’

Yan Luoxi angrily smacked the back of Gu Yizhou’s hand with her paw!

"Ooh, feisty, aren’t we!"

"Hehehe..."

Even after getting swatted, Gu Yizhou wasn’t angry. He just laughed and said, "Alright, Xiaobai, the reason Daddy was so excited just now is because Daddy’s about to make a ton of money again!

Once Daddy makes this money, Daddy can buy you more tasty snacks and canned food!

And of course, there will definitely be those big shrimp you love so much!"

After Gu Yizhou finished, Yan Luoxi curled her lip, thinking irritably, ’Who wants to eat canned cat food?! That dog of a man, does he really take me for one of those useless pet cats?!’

’I couldn’t care less about canned cat food!’

’But!’

’I am, however, a little interested in what he said about making another ton of money!’

’Has that dog of a man found another hot stock?’

’No way, right?’

’It hasn’t been that long.’

’If he’s that good, why is he still just a regular employee at his own family’s company?’

’Could it be he really wants to be my kept man, just like he said????’

Yan Luoxi turned her head to look at Gu Yizhou, unable to figure out what he was really up to.

He saw Xiaobai looking at him suspiciously, her little head tilted as if pondering whether or not to believe his words.

"Yo, Xiaobai, what’s with that look?"

"You don’t believe Daddy?"

"Fine. Just you wait. Today, Daddy is going to give you a lesson on finance and show you how incredible your Daddy is!"

With that, Gu Yizhou picked up his laptop, ready to "teach" Xiaobai her lesson.

However!

Yan Luoxi suddenly shot up and ran into the room.

’I don’t want to hear it!’

’Don’t tell me!’

’If you tell me, I won’t be able to resist buying it!’

The last time, she had already used Gu Yizhou’s tip to make a few hundred million, and he was completely clueless about it!

And there was no way Yan Luoxi could tell Gu Yizhou about it!

It made her feel indebted to Gu Yizhou, which in turn made her feel uneasy staying here.

So, until she could compensate him properly, she planned to stop listening to the dog man’s stock analyses.

Gu Yizhou froze for a second, then followed her into the room.

He walked up to Yan Luoxi and asked, a puzzled look on his face, "Xiaobai? What’s wrong? Why did you suddenly run off?"

Yan Luoxi was lying by the bed, ignoring Gu Yizhou.

Gu Yizhou took a step forward and picked her up by the scruff of her neck.

"Are you still mad at Daddy about what happened earlier?"

"Or is it because Daddy came home late, so you’re throwing a tantrum?"

"Alright, alright, Daddy will come back earlier next time, okay!"

Yan Luoxi struggled a little.

’Who cares if you come back early or not!’

’Let go!’

’I’m going to bite you!’

She turned as if to bite him.

Gu Yizhou didn’t even flinch.

But the moment her teeth touched his finger, she stopped.

’Forget it.’

’I’ll endure it.’

’I can’t bring myself to bite him.’

Gu Yizhou chuckled and patted her head. "I knew you wouldn’t have the heart to bite me."

"Come on!"

"Just a few minutes. You listen to my analysis, I’ll finish my trade, and then we can take a bath and watch a movie in bed."

Yan Luoxi’s paws started twitching violently.

’I won’t listen!’

But Gu Yizhou skillfully grabbed her front paws.

When it came to subduing her, Gu Yizhou was quite an expert.

Feeling completely hopeless, Yan Luoxi was dragged into the living room by Gu Yizhou.

...

「A dozen or so minutes later.」

When Yan Luoxi came to her senses, she was staring in utter shock at the dog of a man holding her!

Because if what Gu Yizhou had just told her and analyzed was true...

...then it was truly terrifying!!!

"Phew..."

Gu Yizhou put her down.

"Alright, Daddy’s done talking and analyzing. That feels much better."

"Xiaobai, you be good and wait here for Daddy. We’ll watch a movie together in a bit!"

"Hehehe..."

Gu Yizhou said with a laugh.

With that, he got up, went to the bedroom to grab his pajamas, and headed for a shower.

The strong smell of beef offal hot pot clung to his clothes, so Gu Yizhou stripped them off and tossed them straight into the washing machine.

By the time he and Xiaobai finished the movie, the clothes would be ready to hang dry.

After Gu Yizhou went to take a shower.

Yan Luoxi remained motionless on the sofa.

If not for her tail twitching every now and then, anyone who didn’t know better would think she had died!

You couldn’t really blame Yan Luoxi, though!

It was just that the stock tip and analysis Gu Yizhou had just shared with her were too shocking!

A 1-nanometer photolithography machine!

If this news got out, it would be about much more than just the stock price doubling, as Gu Yizhou had said.

The entire global technology landscape would be reshaped!

Although what Gu Yizhou said sounded a bit like a fairy tale...

And she had no idea where that dog of a man had gotten his information.

But!

For some reason, she believed him. She believed what that dog of a man said, and she believed his analysis.

’I want to buy it!’

’I really want to buy it!’

’But if I really buy it, I’ll just owe that dog of a man more and more...’

’Can I buy it?’

’If I buy it, how will I ever repay him?’

...

「About twenty minutes later.」

Gu Yizhou finished his shower and walked out of the bathroom.

"Silly little kitty, come let Daddy get a couple of huffs!"

Mumbling some nonsense, Gu Yizhou walked over to the sofa and snatched up Yan Luoxi, who was lost in thought.

"Meeeow~!"

’Dog man!’

’You ambushed me!’

’You have no honor!’

’Let me go!’

’If you don’t let me go, believe it or not, I’ll follow your lead and buy Zhongxin Group’s stock tomorrow?!’

Yan Luoxi struggled, meowing furiously.

But her struggling was completely useless. Gu Yizhou still buried his big face into her soft, pink belly and rubbed it back and forth.

Her little paws went limp.

Her tail stopped moving. She looked as if she’d lost the will to live.

’No resistance!’

’No cooperation!’

’Just get your huff!’

’Get it over with and let this lady go!’

Gu Yizhou took a few huffs, perfectly satisfied, and straightened up.

"Come on, let’s watch a classic movie today—*Hachi: A Dog’s Tale*."

"After we’re done, Xiaobai, you have to write me a thousand-word review!"

Mumbling more nonsense, Gu Yizhou walked into the bedroom, holding Xiaobai in one arm and his laptop in the other.
