Chapter 327: Wolf and Dog

Chapter 327 -258: Wolf and Dog

The little cutie opened his big, dark, round eyes, looking from Gu Heng to Wang Wan Ning. Then, he suddenly threw his arms open and lunged for Wang Wan Ning, even standing on his tiptoes to press his cheek against hers.

“Attaboy!”

“His teeth haven’t even all grown in, and he already knows to hug a beautiful woman!”

“He’s definitely going to be something when he grows up!”

Gu Heng couldn’t help but chuckle at the sight. As for Wang Wan Ning, seeing the little cutie actively throwing himself into her arms made her heart melt with maternal affection.

“Brother Hang, what are you doing skiing all the way out here by yourself?”

Wang Wan Ning asked Gu Heng as she cuddled with the little boy, “If I’d known you were here, I would’ve come and found you.”

“I’m a beginner, and you’re a semi-pro.”

“I figured I would practice here first. Once I’ve mastered the basic moves and beginner techniques, I’ll find you on the advanced slopes.”

Gu Heng explained with a smile, “I know that at your level, the Middle Level slope would probably be boring for you. Instead of having you waste your time here with me, I thought it would be better if we split up.”

“Oh…”

Wang Wan Ning batted her pretty eyes. “There’s a difference between the advanced and Middle Level slopes, but I can still have fun on the Middle Level ones. It wouldn’t be boring like you say. Besides, I didn’t come to Ji Province just to ski. It was mainly because… I missed you a little, Brother Hang~”

Her expression grew a little shy as she finished.

“I’ve already mastered the basic moves and beginner techniques this morning. After we have lunch, I’ll go with you to the advanced slope.”

Gu Heng smiled and said gently to Wang Wan Ning.

“Huh?”

“You’ve mastered them already?”

“Isn’t that a bit too fast?”

Wang Wan Ning was stunned. “Brother Hang, the steepness and number of turns on an advanced slope far exceed those on a Middle Level one. Even if we booked the entire slope for ourselves, it’s still extremely dangerous for a beginner. I think we should stick to this Middle Level slope for today.”

“I’m not trying to show off.”

“I’ve really mastered it all.”

“If you don’t believe me, ask Coach Shi.”

Gu Heng gestured behind him. “This is Coach Shi Mengting, the silver medalist in the women’s cross-country skiing event at the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. I don’t need to elaborate on her professional expertise, do I?”

Upon hearing this, Wang Wan Ning instinctively turned to look at Shi Mengting behind her.

“Mr. Gu has indeed mastered all the basic moves and beginner techniques. Although it might be a bit of a stretch for him to go on an advanced slope right now, as long as he’s careful and cautious, there shouldn’t be any problem.”

Shi Mengting answered truthfully in response to the questioning look.

“See…”

“I told you it was fine.”

“Coach Shi just said I’m exceptionally talented when it comes to skiing.”

Gu Heng spread his hands toward Wang Wan Ning, his tone brimming with confidence.

That morning, the moment Gu Heng had put on his snow gear, strapped into his snowboard, and stood on the slope, he had instantly realized the extent of his power—the top-tier skiing talent bestowed upon him by the Sports Talent Card from Father Tongzi.

If one had to describe it in a phrase, it would be “like a fish in water.”

Can a fish drown in water?

Of course not.

The same was true for Gu Heng.

Wang Wan Ning was still unconvinced. “Then let’s practice on the Middle Level slope for another two hours this afternoon. Once you’ve completely solidified your skills, Brother Hang, we can go play on the advanced slope.”

“Fine.”

“We’ll do it your way.”

Gu Heng didn’t dwell on the topic. He watched the little cutie, who had completely ignored him ever since Wang Wan Ning’s arrival, and couldn’t resist reaching out to pick the boy up.

“You little munchkin!”

“Don’t think you can do whatever you want just because you’re small!”

Gu Heng carefully squeezed the little boy’s plump cheeks with both hands. “Letting you cuddle with Sister Wan Ning was the height of my generosity, yet you clung to her and refused to let go!”

The little cutie, who had just been enthusiastically cuddling with Wang Wan Ning, immediately reverted to his adorably clueless expression once he was in Gu Heng’s arms. He blinked his big, dark, round eyes and tilted his head up slightly to look at Gu Heng.

“Brother Hang, you seem to really like children.”

Wang Wan Ning knelt in the snow beside Gu Heng, glancing at him out of the corner of her eye. Her gaze flickered as she spoke.

“Who wouldn’t like a chubby little kid like this?”

Gu Heng replied as if it were the most obvious thing in the world.

“So, Brother Hang, do you prefer boys or girls?”

Wang Wan Ning asked.

“Girls, of course.”

Gu Heng didn’t hesitate for a second.

“Then…”

“Then… Brother Hang, have you ever thought about when you might want to have children?”

Wang Wan Ning’s voice grew inexplicably quiet.

“I’ve never really thought about it.”

Gu Heng glanced at Wang Wan Ning in surprise. “We’re only eighteen. We haven’t even reached the legal age to marry yet. Isn’t it a little early to be thinking about having kids?”

“That’s true.”

Wang Wan Ning pressed her lips together and didn’t press the topic further. ℯ

“Let’s go.”

“Let’s go get some food.”

Gu Heng teased the little boy for a moment more before getting up from the snow.

“Okay~”

Wang Wan Ning replied gently, her expression visibly brightening.

Surrounded by their entourage, the two walked toward the Park Hyatt Hotel.

On the way, Zhong Hua hurried forward to meet them.

Seeing this, Wang Wan Ning tactfully quickened her pace, putting a bit of distance between herself and Gu Heng.

“Chairman Gu, Gao Junlin and Li Hanwen, the ones who caused trouble last night, have been held in a cell at the police station for nearly twelve hours. The police are asking for your instructions. We can have them released, or they can be given an administrative penalty for disturbing the peace.”
