Chapter 100: Wanda In Black Silk Stockings, Ch 45.3
Gwen looked seriously at Hode. She didn't know what other people's relationships were like, but in that moment, she clearly felt the presence of love.
"Come on! Let's drink some chicken soup first."
Releasing her hand, Hode poured out the chicken soup before them.
"You should have some too!"
At that moment, as Hode set down the soup, Gwen took his hand, her eyes filled with an indescribable feeling. This was undoubtedly the purest affection from a girl.
"Okay!"
Hode sat down in a chair, nodding with a smile. In the next second, Gwen plopped down onto his lap like a cute little cat.
"I'll feed you!"
Even though Gwen's face was already red, she still persevered. In fact, she had looked up earlier to find out why men carried guns with them. Now she understood, but despite her embarrassment, she still found herself swaying a bit.
"This little girl!"
Hode thought to himself; this was practically a crime waiting to happen!
After they finished the chicken soup, Hode hugged Gwen and set her next to the bed, saying, "It's getting late, so you should go to bed early."
He had considered whether to send Gwen back first, but it was late at night, and he couldn't quite shake off the unexpected thrill he felt inside.
Somehow, he decided to let Gwen stay in the guest room for the night.
"Ah?" Gwen was taken aback. "So you...?"
The reason she had been so proactive today was that her pseudo-parents were not at home.
So, she had actually prepared for something to happen tonight, but she didn't expect that Hode was planning to leave. This made her feel a bit down, as things seemed to be falling into place.
"Be good. I have a billion-dollar business deal to discuss tonight, so I can't do anything else," he said.
After saying that, Hode ruffled Gwen's fluffy hair and continued, "But I'll make it up to you with a big breakfast tomorrow."
He really had considered whether anything should happen tonight, but it was indeed inconvenient with Wanda around. So, he had to postpone it for a little while. After all, opening a portal was not something that could be done in just twenty or thirty minutes.
(It's just like the physical condition of our readers; it takes at least two or three hours to get started.)
Although he could summon a clone, he wouldn't be foolish enough to do that. Why would he put a label on himself? That would just be plain silly.
"Alright… business is indeed important," Gwen said, nodding earnestly. After all, that billion-dollar project really needed to be considered.
She guessed that was why Hode had disappeared for so long; it was indeed because of work.
She could only nod disheartenedly.
When Hode opened the master bedroom door, what caught the eye was Wanda stretching her curvy body and yawning.
"Why did you come back so late?" Wanda complained in a slightly spoiled tone upon seeing Hode return.
