Chapter 25: My Sister's Fiance

stood there quietly, her eyes gazing at some unknown place. After a long while, she slowly turned around and looked at Cheng Jibin and Ou Yang Chu. She suddenly smiled, then rolled her eyes and faint..."I'm not in a bad mood," Su Keqin said with a hint of impatience, "It's just that I know you wouldn't call me if nothing was wrong. So, what's up"

"Your sister is getting married soon." As expected, the man on the phone didn't beat around the bush and got straight to the point. "Are you free Come home for a meal together, so you can meet your future brother-in-law."

"Home" Su Ke Xin's voice couldn't help but carry a hint of sarcasm. "Dad, I think you have the wrong idea, that's not my home."

“Su Ke Xin, watch your tone!” The man on the phone’s voice was laced with anger. “Your sister’s marrying isn’t just anyone, she’s marrying Gu family’s young master! Your sister said the whole family should get together, so I’m telling you, you have to come tomorrow night!”

After finishing his words, he hung up the phone directly.

Su Kexin held her phone, her brow slightly furrowed.

Lin Xiaoru is getting married to... Gu Jia's young master

This is why she insisted on going back. With such a great fiancé, it would be strange if she didn't show off.

Although Su Ke Xin saw through the thoughts of her entire family, she knew her father's personality too well. If she didn't agree, he would definitely fly into a rage.

It's just a meal, so let's go.

Since Gu Yichen took office, Su Kexin, who used to love working overtime, always left the office on time. Today was no exception.

Back at the villa, collapsing onto the soft sofa, Su Keixin realized her cold hadn't fully gone. Her muscles ached all over.

Su Ke Xin really felt very tired, not just physically, but mentally exhausted as well. She was so tired that she didn't even have the energy to get up from the sofa.

It wasn't until she heard the sound of someone approaching that Su Ke Xin hastily got up, only to see Gu Chi's wheelchair stopped beside her.

Unlike his formal white shirts on regular days, today Gu Chi was wearing a casual gray knitted sweater at home, outlining his perfect inverted triangle figure.

"Why are you back so early today" She was a little surprised to see Gu Chi at this hour.

Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin.

Her face was still somewhat pale, and her eyes were red-rimmed, clearly having cried during the day.

"Mm." Gu Chi's expression remained as indifferent as ever. "Dinner is ready, let's eat."

Su Ke Xin arrived at the restaurant and, seeing the dishes on the table, was taken aback.

It's surprising to see that all the dishes on this table are mainly vegetarian soups and medicinal foods.

Although they hadn't lived together for long, Su Kexin had noticed that Gu Chi liked spicy food. Why was he being so mild today

Su Kexin sat down in confusion. Gu Chi immediately filled a bowl of chicken soup and placed it before her, "Warm your body up."

Su Keixin was startled.

Could it be that all these dishes on the table were specially made for her because she has a cold

Su KeXin suddenly felt a strange mixture of emotions. It was as if her originally cold and weary heart had been plunged into warm water, slowly warming up.

It's good that someone cares about their feelings.

"What's wrong" Seeing Su Keixin not move her chopsticks, Gu Chi frowned slightly, "Not to your taste"

"No." Su Keixin was afraid he would see her reddened eyes, burying her head low and picking up the spoon.

The savory and warm chicken soup went down her throat, and Su Kexin felt her tired body slowly warming up. Her thoughts involuntarily drifted back to her student days.

Do you remember when we were in college, every time I had a cold, Gu Yichen would secretly go into the girls' dormitory and bring me chicken soup.

At that time, they didn't have any money, but they were really happy. Even a bowl of ten yuan chicken soup from a street stall, crowded together on the hard planks beds in the dormitory chatting, she truly felt very happy.

Who could have thought that two years could change a person so much.

"What are you thinking about" Gu Chi's low and pleasant voice suddenly rang in her ear.

Su Keqin came to her senses and quickly tugged at the corners of her mouth, "It's nothing."

"By the way, I'm going to have dinner with my father tomorrow evening, so you don't need to prepare dinner for me."

"Hmm." Gu Chi responded, after a pause, "When I have time, I will also visit your parents."

"No need," Su Keqin blurted out.

Gu Chi raised an eyebrow slightly.

Su Ke Xin then realized her reaction seemed inappropriate, and she awkwardly said, "My parents... their relationship isn't very good... My mom isn't in very good health either... So..."

Gu Chi looked at Su Ke Xin, who was a little flustered in front of him, and the corner of his mouth twitched slightly.

Su Ke Xin didn't know that her family background had already been investigated.

"Really" But he didn't press further, only replied with a faint smile, "But when you have time, I want to take you back to meet my family."

Su Ke Xin was taken aback.

This was still Gu Chi's first time mentioning his family to her.

"Would you like to visit your parents" Su Kexin cautiously probed.

My parents are both deceased.

Su Kexin awkwardly said, "Sorry."

"It's fine." Gu Chi's face remained unmoved. "When you have time, I can introduce you to my grandfather and older brother. My older brother's son is getting married soon."

Another wedding

Su Keqin smiled wryly.

Is there some auspicious day recently that everyone is rushing to get married

"Well, alright." Since she and Gu Chi were husband and wife, it was only polite to meet his family. Su Ke Xin didn't refuse.

Gu Zhi nodded, and the two of them simply ate dinner for the rest of the night, in silence.

The next day, Su Keqin waited until she got off work and then took a taxi to the Lin family's villa.

As soon as she got out of the car, she saw a girl in a bright yellow dress running towards her happily.

"Sister! You're finally here!" The girl threw her arms around Su Ke Xin, laughing sweetly and affectionately. "Come in quickly, I want to introduce my fiancé to you."

Su Kexin looked at Lin Xiaoru, who was beautiful and graceful beside her, and pursed her lips slightly, "Gu's young master, huh"

Lin Xiaoru was taken aback for a moment, then giggled, “So Dad already told you Oh, but when you see him later, don't mention the Gu family. He hates it when people talk about his family background.”

Although she said it that way, the triumph in Lin Xiaoru's eyes was undeniable.

Su Kexin just smiled at this.

Lin Xiaoru had always been vain, it was something she knew from a young age. This time, to actually be on the list with Gu Jia's youngest son, she couldn't help but show off. It would have been really difficult for her if she hadn't.

However, Gu Jia, this is indeed something that Lin Xiaoru can be proud of.

S city has three prominent families, the Gu family, the Cheng family, and the Ji family. They are true historical aristocrats, vastly different from nouveau riche families like the Lin family.

And as for the Gu family's young master, if she remembered correctly, he was the only son of the Gu family's eldest son. He seemed to have been studying abroad all this time, so no one outside knew his name.

Su Kexin was deep in thought, but Lin Xiaoru had already eagerly pulled her towards the villa.

In the living room, a straight and tall figure stood with its back to the one sitting on the sofa.

Lin Xiaoru pulled her over, her face beaming with excitement, “Ah Han, let me introduce you, this is my older sister. Although we don’t have the same mother, she’s my biological sister, oh!”

Ahkan

Su Ke Xin's body stiffened slightly, she raised her head and saw the man in front of her smiling at her, "Oh, I didn't expect Xiaoru's sister to be an acquaintance."instructed Liang Mingsi, "I called you here today to investigate why the wire suddenly malfunctioned during Tang Lijia's filming.
