The Billionaire's Priceless Darling: 33 Days of the CEO's Pursuit - Chapter 207 - Was Her Temper Like Chili Peppers? 4

“Ahem…” Gu Xiaoai coughed lightly before speaking, “Yes, it’s me.”

Chu Shixiu visibly breathed a sigh of relief, “Xiao Ai, you finally called me.”

It was like a long-awaited sentiment.

The moment of relaxation when finally waiting…

Was he… always waiting for her call?

“Ah Xiu… Chu Shixiu.” Gu Xiaoai promptly corrected her awkward phrasing.

Chu Shixiu was silent for two seconds, his voice carrying a bitter smile, “Xiao Ai, I’m used to you calling me Ah Xiu.”

Ah Xiu, I found you.

Ah Xiu, why are you hiding here alone again?

Ah Xiu, if you hide, don’t hide too far, I won’t be able to find you.

…

Ah Xiu, Ah Xiu, from the beginning of her memory, Gu Xiaoai always called him this, he was long accustomed to it.

She told him not to hide far, she wouldn’t be able to find him.

He didn’t hide far, yet she hid alone for nine years, and he only just found her.

She wouldn’t even tell him where she lived.

Have they become so estranged?

“…” Gu Xiaoai remained silent on the phone, her left hand unconsciously tracing circles on the window glass.

Was he used to her calling him Ah Xiu?

“Xiao Ai, your voice seems familiar to me,” Chu Shixiu suddenly said.

Gu Xiaoai was stunned for a moment; she had spoken to him using the Li Family’s phone before… could he actually recognize her voice?

Did she slip up?

After Chu Shixiu spoke, he didn’t say anything further. She coughed lightly and joked, “Are you saying my voice is common?”

Chu Shixiu smiled on the other end, “No, Xiao Ai’s voice is the most special.”

Xiao Ai’s voice is the most special.

Xiao Ai is the most beautiful, the prettiest, the cutest.

Xiao Ai will definitely be the most outstanding in the future.

Xiao Ai is good at everything, everyone will like you…

It seemed she was always exaggeratedly praised by Chu Shixiu from a young age. In Chu Shixiu’s eyes, she had no flaws, everything was the best, incomparable to anyone.

When she was little, her temperament was somewhat spoiled. Dad often said her temperament was indulged by mom and Chu Shixiu.

How rare it is to meet a man who will always sincerely praise you… unfortunately, she already missed it.

This gentle, impeccable man doesn’t belong to her.

He never will… belong to her.
