Chapter 859: Chapter 859: Sister, Please Forgive Me (Part 1)
Gu Xue opened her eyes wide inside, “Jinjin, he is calling you! Do you know each other?”
Gu Anjin’s face showed an unusual determination, still intent on closing the door.
But regrettably, the control of the door was unequivocally in his hands, opening slowly without hesitation.
Yue Siqing walked in, and the golden light in the hall swiftly enveloped him.
He glanced at Gu Anjin with deep eyes, not saying much.
Gu Xue was stunned for a moment; it’s truly rare to find someone who can rival Gu Annan in the world, and this person was certainly one of them.
Not only devastatingly handsome, but also someone you’d instinctively know not to offend.
He looked around thirty, but with such excellent care, his actual age must have been over thirty—the golden age of a mature man.
“Sir, may I ask who you are?” Gu Xue saw that neither of them was speaking and remembered this was a Gu Family gathering, not just anyone could enter today.
“Gu Anjin’s sworn brother.” Yue Siqing walked in from outside, his voice betraying no ripple.
“So, you’re Jinjin’s sworn brother.” Gu Xue never knew Gu Anjin had a sworn brother.
What envy-provoking fortunes!
Having a biological brother like Gu Annan and a sworn brother like that.
What good deeds did she do in her past life to have such luck?
“Why didn’t Jinjin say earlier, joking about closing the door just now.” Gu Xue laughed, “Such mischief.”
Gu Anjin neither corrected nor nodded.
Her heart felt a bit uncomfortable, especially upon hearing the words ‘sworn brother’.
Lu Kexin, who had already entered, did not dare say anything now.
Gu Anjin was indeed not someone easily provoked; the Gu Family was a haven of hidden talents, caution was needed.
She lifted her head, smiling gently, and said to Gu Mingze, “Let’s go see your aunt first.”
Yue Siqing took a few steps and stopped, his lips as exquisite and perfect as he lightly spoke, “I’m here to see Madam Gu.”
Gu Xue noticed Gu Anjin still wasn’t speaking and didn’t know why.
She hurriedly beckoned, “Aunt is over there, follow me.”
“Thank you.” The gratitude was spoken without a hint of appreciation.
Only after Yue Siqing left did Gu Anjin slowly quell her emotions.
She bit her lip, feeling a surge of emotions in her heart, ultimately leading to slow disappointment.
He was only here to see Grandma, at least he had that bit of conscience, but ultimately, it had nothing to do with her, right?
Madam Gu looked at the lively and harmonious atmosphere today, feeling very happy.
She sat in the Taishi chair, calling the two children to eat while casually listening to others chatting.
In the entire hall now, everyone knew that those two children were Madam Gu’s treasures.
“How many months along?” Madam Gu peeled an orange for Little Youyou and looked up at Lu Kexin.
She seemed like a gentle and virtuous child.
“Almost five months.” Lu Kexin smiled gently and kindly.
“Mingze hasn’t married yet, has he? Is that right, Mingze?” Madam Gu peeled the orange, suddenly remembering.
Gu Mingze was a bit embarrassed, “Not yet, but preparations are underway.”
At this moment, Madam Gu’s gaze on Lu Kexin had already changed a bit; being pregnant before marriage was still somewhat questionable ethically.
“What adorable kids.” Lu Kexin looked at the boy and girl beside the old lady, their black, shiny eyes staring at her, she smiled, “Mingze, if only we could have two just like them.”
