Chapter 422 The Playboy's Divorced Woman 18
Gu Shenbai promised to take Xie Qingyu out to play, and he definitely wouldn't go back on his word.
The next morning, Gu Shenbai, unusually, did not rush to leave after getting up. Instead, he had a servant bring him clothes, and after washing and dressing up, he sat to the side and watched Xie Qingyu get ready.
He had only seen the First Madam do her makeup before, and instinctively felt it would be troublesome and take a long time, but at that time his father said it wouldn't be troublesome.
He didn't understand back then, but now, sitting here watching Xie Qingyu, he doesn't feel any trouble.
I just found it quite interesting.
Xie Qingyu hardly wears any makeup; she doesn't even need to draw her eyebrows, only applying a touch of rouge to her lips.
Then the maidservant combed her hair.
Gu Shenbai's gaze almost never left Xie Qingyu, seemingly the most focused he had ever been before.
He only came to his senses when Xie Qingyu looked at him after tidying up.
The two dined together in Xie Qingyu's courtyard.
After finishing her meal, it was time for Xie Qingyu to pay her respects to the First Madam.
After learning about it, Gu Shenbai said nothing and went with Xie Qingyu.
The First Madam was very pleased to see that the two of them had come together today.
"It's perfect that you two are here too. I'll have my embroiderer come over today to take your measurements, and then I'll take your measurements again later to make you a few new outfits." The First Madam was in a very good mood.
"How long will it take?" Gu Shenbai asked directly.
"What's wrong? What do you want?" The First Madam assumed he was going out to fool around again, so her tone wasn't very friendly.
"I'm taking Qingyu out today, so let's not stay out too late," Gu Shenbai said naturally.
He was unaware that Xie Qingyu had already obtained permission to go out from the First Madam's side, and he was thinking that this was a good opportunity to tell the First Madam as well.
"Then let them take your measurements first." The First Madam didn't even ask Gu Shenbai where he was taking Xie Qingyu.
After taking measurements here, Xie Qingyu went out with Gu Shenbai.
The two rode in the same carriage. After getting in, Xie Qingyu asked where they were going.
Gu Shenbai rarely takes a carriage when he goes out, but he did so today because Xie Qingyu was with him.
Before going to bed last night, he thought for a while about where to take Xie Qingyu, but he couldn't think of anything for the time being.
The main problem is that shows suitable for Xie Qingyu, like those about Cuju (ancient Chinese football), aren't available every day; there haven't been many lately.
"I haven't decided yet. I've already asked Changsheng to inquire about any recent events." Gu Shenbai only knew that there was a cricket fighting event today, but it was a bit inconvenient to take Xie Qingyu there at the beginning. He was afraid that Xie Qingyu would look down on those people for lacking ambition if she went in.
"I wonder if Miss Cai Yue is going or not. I met a woman like her last time I went out. She seems to be with you guys often, so she might know which ones are more suitable for me to play with." Xie Qingyu tilted her head and looked at Gu Shenbai, her tone somewhat suggestive.
“She hasn’t settled on a marriage proposal since her last martial arts contest, so we could go and take a look, and ask when the engagement will be finalized,” Gu Shenbai said immediately.
"Should we bring some things with us when we visit?"
"No need, we've known each other for a long time, there's no need to fuss over these things," Gu Shenbai shook his head.
Xie Qingyu said, "It's not about bringing gifts, but Miss Cai is getting engaged, so we should bring something to congratulate her on our visit."
Xie Qingyu's words made a lot of sense, and Gu Shenbai was also someone who listened to advice.
He immediately parked the car, went to the shop to buy some things to take with him, and then went with Xie Qingyu.
The atmosphere at the Cai family home was as lively as ever. When they saw that it was Gu Shenbai, no one stopped him and let him in directly.
The first place Gu Shenbai took Xie Qingyu to was the Cai family's martial arts training ground.
Almost every day, Cai Kun would be at the training ground unless he went out.
He went over there without any trouble.
He simply forgot that Xie Qingyu was with him this time, and he only realized something was wrong after they arrived at the training ground.
The training ground was located in a special area in the front yard of the Cai family. The Cai family members trained there, and since the Cai family originated from a security escort agency, all the members were equally burly.
It was morning, and they had just finished exercising. They had taken off their shirts, revealing large areas of honey-colored muscles and muscular chests.
The muscles of a man who has been physically trained are not very large, but they are very powerful and look full of explosive energy.
There were at least a dozen such men standing in the training ground.
The moment Gu Shenbai stepped into the training ground, he immediately realized that something was wrong!
