Chapter 612: Mr. Snail
Gu Yeqi took Song Yin back to her apartment, tidied her up a bit, and then prepared to leave.
But upon seeing the scene inside the apartment, she immediately abandoned the idea of leaving.
Song Yin's apartment, which she lives in alone, isn't big, but it's just right for her. The cleaning lady usually comes three times a week to clean, but yesterday Song Yin had a get-together with Mu Xiaoyu, so she didn't have time to tidy up this morning.
In addition, she is a lazy person by nature, so although the apartment is not dirty, it is still a complete mess.
Gu Yeqi wasn't exactly a germaphobe, but seeing Song Yin's apartment in such a mess, he simply couldn't stand by and do nothing.
Looking at the chaotic apartment in front of him, Gu Yeqi couldn't help but laugh.
He rubbed his forehead and shook his head helplessly. He had only thought Song Yin was strong-willed before, but after getting to know her better, he found that Song Yin's personality was actually quite like a child's, which was completely... beyond his expectations, yet also made him feel very cute.
Even with these flaws, she's still adorable.
Song Yin was woken up the next morning. She likes to sleep in, and she had drunk a little wine the night before, so she slept even more soundly than usual.
When someone woke me up, I was a little unwilling and pushed them away with my eyes still closed.
"Yinyin, it's time to get up. You have a performance this morning and singing practice this afternoon."
"Just ten more minutes, ten more minutes."
Song Yin mumbled something, saying that she felt Gu Yeqi was like a mother hen, waking her up and doing all the things a mother would do.
Wait, what's Gu Yeqi doing here?
Instantly, Song Yin opened her eyes. She turned over and saw Gu Yeqi standing by the bed, wearing an apron around his waist, looking at her: "Awake?"
Song Yin initially thought she was seeing things, so she rubbed her eyes and looked again. Sure enough, the person was still standing there.
"You...how did you get here?"
“I brought you back last night, and then… something happened. By the time it was over, it was already very late, but don’t worry, I slept on the sofa last night.”
"What happened?"
Song Yin glanced at her clothes subconsciously; they were still the same ones from last night, and she breathed a sigh of relief.
Gu Yeqi saw Song Yin's little actions and couldn't help but laugh. He bent down and gently ruffled her hair, saying, "Don't worry, I didn't do anything last night. Get up and get ready for breakfast. You have to go to work later. I also have a schedule this morning, so I can't be with you."
"I'm not a child, why would I need you to accompany me?"
Song Yin muttered to herself that she didn't know why, but she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She didn't dare to look at Gu Yeqi at the moment, so she threw off the covers, got out of bed, and went straight into the bathroom.
She took a quick shower and came out without putting on makeup. She has a personal makeup artist; they'll take care of her makeup later.
Song Yin didn't know what Gu Yeqi was talking about before, but when she went outside and saw the situation, she immediately understood what was going on.
She knew her own apartment all too well. What used to be a mess was now spotless; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it was immaculate.
Song Yin looked at Gu Yeqi, who was serving her porridge, in surprise. After a long while, she stammered, "Did you clean the house?"
"It looked a bit messy, so I tidied it up last night."
Gu Yeqi spoke casually, as he considered it something he did on a whim, and there was no need to say anything more.
But his silence doesn't mean Song Yin doesn't have something on her mind.
She walked to the dining table and sat down, her gaze towards Gu Yeqi becoming increasingly complicated.
"Gu Yeqi, don't you...don't you feel like you're becoming more and more like the Fairy Tale of the Snail?"
"The Snail Maiden? What does that mean?"
Gu Yeqi wasn't unaware of what "Snail Girl" meant, but when he suddenly heard Song Yin say that about him, he was both amused and exasperated.
Song Yin pouted slightly and said, "Isn't that right? Look at you, after you appeared by my side, you handled all the things around me so well, and I didn't spend any money myself. What else could you be but a fairy godmother?"
"Even if it's really as you say, then I should be Mr. Snail, not Ms. Snail."
Gu Yeqi corrected him, saying that he didn't care much about these superficial titles, as long as he could gradually change Song Yin's impression of him, that was enough.
"By the way, when do we start singing practice this afternoon?"
"Around three o'clock, I still have some things to do, it might be three o'clock after I finish."
In fact, Gu Yeqi's morning schedule would end by noon, but he still needed to set aside some time to deal with things at home.
In any case, he already made his point yesterday.
Song Yin hasn't agreed to the engagement yet, so things might not be in a rush. But if he agrees to the engagement and something goes wrong with his family, it will be troublesome.
Now that he's with Song Yin, he can't let her suffer any injustice. He has to resolve the family issues as soon as possible.
Song Yin didn't ask Gu Yeqi what his work was today. Hearing this, she just nodded and didn't say anything more, then started eating her breakfast in silence.
The breakfast was made by Gu Yeqi himself. Song Yin had always thought that young men like Gu Yeqi were basically far removed from the kitchen.
Not to mention Gu Yeqi, even she herself rarely goes into the kitchen. She has never even cooked a simple instant noodle herself.
Looking at the exquisite breakfast items on the table, Song Yin felt genuine admiration for Gu Yeqi.
He's talented, good-looking, has a good family background, and is excellent at interpersonal relationships. He excels in all these aspects. So much so that Song Yin now really wants to ask Gu Yeqi if there's anything he can't do.
And now that I think about it, regardless of whether she and Gu Yeqi can end up together, she has still gotten a good deal.
For someone like Gu Yeqi, being able to get a good night's sleep and spend the rest of his life with only the lamplight for company is truly worthwhile.
Thinking this, Song Yin couldn't help but laugh.
She felt that she was really good at taking things in stride, but she was slightly regretful that she was so drunk that night that she didn't have a very deep impression of it now.
It's really a bit of a shame.
"Yin Yin?"
Gu Yeqi saw Song Yin grinning foolishly and couldn't help but call her name twice, but Song Yin was lost in thought and didn't react at all.
He was both amused and exasperated by Song Yin's somewhat silly appearance. He waved his hand in front of her several times to pull her back from her wandering thoughts: "What are you thinking about? You seem so engrossed in your thoughts."
