Chapter 3752: A New Addition (368)
“…”
Youyou had a condescending look on his face, as though coming here to attend Gu Jinglian’s wedding banquet was lowering his own status!
Everyone fell silent.
Gu Jinglian almost blurted out: Get lost.
Fortunately, Butler Fu was able to read subtle expressions and quickly stopped him, whispering, “Old Master, it’s a joyous occasion. Don’t get angry…”
Mu Yazhe suppressed his laughter. This son of his was too arrogant. He wouldn’t even give Gu Jinglian some face. How tough was this kid.
While Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ was at a loss for words, Chu He burst out laughing!
Little Yichen tugged at Youyou’s sleeve nervously and said, “Hey, Youyou, at the very least you should congratulate them!”
No matter what, Gu Jinglian saved his life and Lisa’s as well. For that reason, Little Yichen had quite a good impression of the man! Youyou, however, did not like Gu Jinglian and looked at him with disdain.
Gu Jinglian was also not on good terms with the boy. The two of them were extremely hostile towards each other.
Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ quickly stepped forward and said to the newlyweds, “Jinglian, Chu He, congratulations! Congratulations on your marriage!”
Gu Jinglian snorted, but did not look too hostile. Clearly, Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+’s timely intervention had somewhat quelled his anger.
Chu He couldn’t help saying, “This little guy is too cute!”
There was such an uncanny resemblance between him and Gu Jinglian. How did they end up having such similar temperament? Arrogant, aloof, and with such disregard for others. One was a demon king and the other, a little demon king. No wonder they were at odds!
She felt helpless as well. She wouldn’t have known about the conflict between Youyou and Gu Jinglian, or that during the time in North Africa, Youyou had caused Gu Jinglian to lose a piece of land. The boy, obviously, did not take the arrogant Gu Jinglian seriously. So of course the two of them did not get along.
Mu Yazhe went up to Gu Jinglian and said, “Congratulations. A little token of my appreciation, please accept it.” He handed over a red packet. However, this red packet was rather long and big, but very flat.
Gu Jinglian immediately knew that the gift was substantial. Mu Yazhe could not possibly stuff a hundred yuan bill inside. It had to be a big check.
“Butler Fu!” Gu Jinglian called out.
Butler Fu immediately came over, took the red packet from Mu Yazhe, and bowed with a smile. “CEO Mu, Madam Mu, this way please!”
“Uh huh.” Mu Yazhe nodded and put his arm around Yun s.h.i.+s.h.i.+ as the six of them entered the Mu residence under Butler Fu’s lead.
Seeing that there was no one else around, Chu He bent down and gently ma.s.saged her aching leg. She was wearing high heel shoes, but that was not the norm for her. On top of the shoes, she had been standing at the doorway for a long time. By now, her calf muscles were tense, and inevitably felt sore.
Noticing this, Madam Qin immediately asked, “Are you uncomfortable wearing high heels?”
Chu He nodded, “Yes,my feet are sore and my toes hurt too.”
“Sure. Give me a minute. I’ll get you a pair of flats.” Aunty Fu asked, “Do you have a pair of red flats?”
“Yes, it’s just a pair of cloth shoes, but they are red, so it should be fine. Chu He is pregnant, so she can’t keep wearing heels. It’s not good for her health.”
“Yeah, that’s true. Let’s change those shoes quickly.”
Madam Qin immediately brought the shoes over while Aunty Fu s.h.i.+elded the bride from view. Chu He removed her high heels and changed into the pair of flats. After this, she felt much better.
