Chapter 73: Intentional Matchmaking

"I went to the College of Traditional Chinese Medicine to see my master today. Maybe I got the scent of medicine there."

"It turns out to be the scent of medicine. I was wondering why I didn't smell this perfume." Gu Huan suddenly realized.

At this time, Mrs. Gu continued, "My best friend, your Aunt Zhang's little daughter recently returned from abroad. She has completed her studies and seems to be a teacher at Xiangcheng International School. You can meet her when you are free."

"I've seen that child. She's very beautiful and gentle."

"Aunt Fang, I'm quite busy lately. The company has a lot of things to do with the launch of new products. Let's talk later."

Gu Xixing doesn't like blind dates. If you believe it, given his status, many girls in Xiangcheng would probably compete to come to him, right?

But I couldn't directly offend Aunt Fang, as she meant well, so I politely declined, citing work as an excuse.

Liu Fang was very good at reading people's expressions and understood immediately.

Xie Family Old House

When Xie Nancheng came back, he saw the family sitting in the living room chatting.

"How is Tongtong?" Xie Nancheng asked as he entered the door.

"It's nothing serious. Just as Ranran said, I had a fever caused by the flu virus, and the persistent fever caused me to faint. Your father and I stayed in the hospital for a short day, and I felt much better in the afternoon."

"That's good."

"Or maybe you'd say your Third Aunt is stubborn. Even when Ranran noticed something was wrong with the child, she cursed her. Really..."

Mrs. Xie expressed more and more dissatisfaction with her sister-in-law. The old lady of the Xie family also looked unhappy. "She is an actor, and all she knows is acting. Can she take good care of the child? Your third uncle is also a heartless man, who only cares about appearances. He deserves it. It's just a pity for the child."

Xie Nancheng didn't respond. Over the years, he knew his second aunt and third uncle too well to say more.

He glanced at Tu Ran in the corner. She was holding her grandmother's white cat and playing with it happily.

The white cat still had the sachet that Pinggu had taken that morning on its neck.

"What does it wear around its neck?" He was the consultant.

"Decorations." Tu Ran was too lazy to answer and was very perfunctory.

Xie Nancheng was stunned. "Isn't this an antiviral sachet?"

"You know why are you asking?"

"Hahaha, Ranran, you're so good at retorting." Mrs. Xie laughed out loud at the embarrassment. It was rare for her to see her son being humiliated.

"Mom, can you still laugh?"

"Look at her. She's only been married for a few days and she's already going crazy."

"There's something wrong with your question. You know it clearly, but you still ask it on purpose?" Mrs. Xie sided with her daughter-in-law.

"Does each of you have this sachet?"

"Yes, your grandma has it, your dad and I have it, and Aunt Ping and the others have it too. It's quite effective. Today, your dad and I went to the hospital and found that it was overcrowded. Many people were infected with this virus. I was feeling a little uncomfortable and dizzy, but I felt better when I got home in the evening."

"That's because our old house was disinfected with antiviral spray made by the young lady. Once in the morning and once in the evening. I think it is very effective." This was said by Pinggu.

"Why am I the only one who doesn't have it?" Xie Nancheng started to get serious again.

"You dislike it yourself, who do you blame?" Tu Ran was not stupid. He knew the answer from Xie Nancheng's conversation with Pinggu in the morning.

"I dislike it, but you have to prepare one for me. I am your husband, Tu Ran." He looked at her word by word.

"You're in good health, so you don't need it."

Xie Nancheng: ...

"There's no need to talk about things in the boudoir in public." Xie Nancheng curled his lips.

Tu Ran immediately understood what was going on and her cheeks turned red.

"That's not what I meant. What are you explaining?"

At this time, Xie Nancheng received a WeChat message on his mobile phone.

He lowered his head, glanced, and turned away.

"My friend asked me to play cards, so I didn't eat at home."

After saying that, he walked out.

"Wait a minute." The old lady called her grandson.

Xie Nancheng turned around.

"Take your wife with you."

Xie Nancheng: ...

Tu Ran: ...

"Grandma, I'm playing cards with my friends. It's not appropriate to bring her along."

"There's no such thing as that. What's inappropriate? If my wife isn't suitable, who is? I'm just targeting your bunch of cronies."

"Of course, go change your clothes. Grandma will take care of everything for you today."

"Grandma, I actually..."

"Keep a close eye on him. This is the task grandma gave you."

Tu Ran originally wanted to say, "Grandma, I really don't want to go. It's quite cold outside." But since the old lady had said so, he couldn't say the rest.

"Why don't you go change it?" Xie Nancheng glanced at Tu Ran.

Tu Ran felt a little helpless, but still went upstairs to change clothes.

Knowing that he was going to meet Xie Nancheng's friends, Tu Ran dressed differently from usual.

At least not as casually as you normally dress.

She chose a long Japanese-style dress in beige.

She was wearing a long brown cashmere coat.

She paired it with a pair of black high boots and wore a small hat like the one worn by Princess Kate.

Not to mention, when she dresses up like this, she really looks like a socialite.

Xie Nancheng drove a black Panamera sports car, and Tu Ran sat in the passenger seat.

The two of them didn't speak all the way, neither Xie Nancheng nor Tu Ran said anything.

All the way to a private club.

"I'll see my friend later, so don't talk nonsense."

"If you're afraid I might say something, don't take me with you."

"You think I want to take you, if it weren't for grandma..."

"You can't bully grandma, so you bully me, right, Xie Nancheng? Do I look like a soft persimmon?"

Xie Nancheng was so angry that he laughed, looking the damn girl up and down.

"Do you have to be so aggressive?"

"I was just protecting myself."

"Whatever you want."

Xie Nancheng felt that he was too lazy to say anything, and she wouldn't listen even if he said it.

He took Tu Ran inside.

In fact, Tu Ran could understand the old lady's thoughts. The old lady felt that the young couple had just been married for a short time.

There should be some emotional interaction. I let her come along in order to bring them together and enhance their relationship.

But to be honest, she really doesn't want to come to this kind of occasion.

She also knows her own identity and does not want to hang out with these top rich second-generations, nor can she get along with them.

When Xie Nancheng opened the door and walked in, Feng Yao was smoking a cigar.

"Oh, our protagonist is finally here."

In addition to Feng Yao, there is also his celebrity girlfriend Ling Feier.

What I never expected was that there was Fu Yunni.

In addition, there was a couple who were friends brought by Feng Yao, but their presence was not very strong.

Seeing Xie Nancheng walk in, Fu Yunni immediately stood up and smiled sweetly, "Mr. Xie, we meet again."

She just didn't expect that there was a woman following Xie Nancheng.

After seeing that Tu Ran had also arrived, Fu Yunni's face froze.

"Hey? Nancheng, why did you bring a woman with you?" Feng Yao was also surprised.

"My wife, Tu Ran." The boss introduced lazily.

The boss's light words shocked the whole audience...
