Chapter 523: The ceiling of the father
When a young couple swims alone together, it's not really swimming; it's just the sticky playfulness that's the real deal. Anyway, no matter what happens, Gu Siqing's fur is clean.
After playing for the whole morning, the people who went out to play at noon had not returned. The two of them had lunch and took a short nap, and then went shopping together in the afternoon.
Gu Siqing often received gifts from Han Zhengping, and she decided to buy him something nice this time. So before leaving, she shook her bag and said, "See? It's full of money. I'll buy you whatever you want today."
What a heroic statement.
Han Zhengping couldn't help but laugh, "Okay."
Since they were going shopping, the two headed straight to Causeway Bay. Suits, casual wear, shoes, belts, wallets, ties, and so on, Gu Siqing bought everything she liked without blinking an eye.
Every time Gu Siqing generously paid, Han Zhengping would receive strange looks, as if he were a gigolo. But he was happy to be a gigolo.
After more than two hours of shopping, Han Zhengping's hands were full of bags. They found a cafe to rest, but upon entering, they were met by a large group of people: Wang Yueju, Kong Xiuwan, Gu Erhui, and Xia Ying. Of course, the men who were responsible for carrying the bags were also there.
The two ordered two cups of coffee. Gu Siqing walked over and sat with Gu Erhui and Xia Ying. Han Zhengping, carrying a bunch of bags, sat opposite Zhang Zijun, who was also surrounded by many bags.
"Don't you have something to do? Why did you buy so many things?" Zhang Zijun asked.
"Xiao Si bought them all for me." Han Zhengping said it in a boastful manner.
Zhang Zijun rummaged through his bag and found it was full of men's stuff. He snorted and said, "You don't know until you get married, but after marriage, your wife buys you everything. What do you think of this?"
Han Zhengping: ""
Well, he couldn't win.
Gu Siqing, Gu Erhui, and Xia Ying chatted for a while, discussing a trip to the watch shop across the street. Wang Yueju, Kong Xiuwan, An Ruijin, and Old Lady Xia also wanted to go after hearing about it. They let the men rest while they continued shopping.
After Su Wenshan saw the group of women leave, he said to Gu Jianguo, "I don't usually see how strong you are, but once you start shopping, you feel full of energy."
Gu Jianguo deeply agreed.
Gu Siqing and her friends entered a luxury watch shop. She liked a pair of watches and asked the waiter to show them to her. Gu Erhui and Xia Ying gave her some advice. Meanwhile, An Ruijin and Kong Xiuwan ran into their acquaintance Xu Yusen's current wife, Xue Lizhu.
"Mrs. Su, Mrs. Su, you are here too! When did you return to Hong Kong?" Xue Lizhu greeted An Ruijin and Kong Xiuwan.
An Ruijin and Kong Xiuwan greeted her. Xue Lizhu asked about Wang Yueju and the others' faces, and An Ruijin introduced them to her. They then exchanged greetings and chatted for a few more words. Xue Lizhu said she had something to do and left.
Before leaving, she glanced at Gu Siqing, mistaking her for Gu Sanjing.
Last time, Xu Yusen got so angry when he came back because Xu Likang introduced him to a girlfriend. Xue Lizhu knew that he had a girlfriend in Kyoto.
Later, Xu Likang told her roughly about the situation of the Gu family, so now she knew that Xu Yusen's "girlfriend" and her family had come to Hong Kong.
It’s no wonder that she mistook Gu Siqing for Gu Sanjing, mainly because the two were too close in age.
Xue Lizhu was currently struggling with whether or not to tell Xu Likang about the Gu family's arrival in Hong Kong. Even if she didn't, the Gu family had seen her today, and they couldn't remain silent. If the Gu family had a problem with the young master because of this, it would be her fault.
But if they told Xu Likang, the last time the young master left, he said that Xu Likang was not allowed to interfere in his affairs. If they acted on their own and angered the young master, Xu Likang, being his biological father, wouldn't matter, at most he would just kneel for a few more days.
But it was different for her as a stepmother. She was afraid that Xu Yusen would take his anger out on her.
It’s really difficult!
She returned home with a heavy heart, but Xu Likang was naturally not at home. He seldom came back to this house now, and there were young and fresh girls outside, so how could she compare to them?
But she didn't care. She knew what kind of person Xu Likang was before she married him. He wasn't after Xu Likang as a person; she was after a life of wealth and glory.
Xue Lizhu paced back and forth in the living room for a while and decided to tell Xu Likang about the Gu family's trip to Hong Kong. As for what to do next, it was Xu Likang's business. Even if Xu Yusen got angry, it would not be her business.
After making up her mind, she called Xu Likang and told him about her encounter with the Gu family. She also said, "I saw the young lady from the Gu family. She is so beautiful."
After Xu Likang hung up the phone, he began to think about what to do next. He really wanted to meet the Gu family; after all, a meeting would bring the marriage between the two families one step closer. But Xu Yusen had said last time that he didn't have to worry about his affairs.
Xu Likang was a bit conflicted, but only for a moment. He was the father, and Xu Yusen was his son. Did he have to consider his son's actions? Besides, he was doing this for his own good.
After making up his mind, he called Su Wenshan and told him he wanted to visit. Su Wenshan naturally knew what he meant and asked, "Have you told Yusen?"
Su Wenshan thought it was okay for Xu Likang to meet with Gu Jianguo and the others. Xu Likang was only unconcerned about women, and there was nothing wrong with him in other aspects.
"I did." Xu Likang lied. He was afraid that Su Wenshan would not agree to him meeting the Gu family. After all, the Gu family lived in the Su family.
When Su Wenshan heard him say that he had told Xu Yusen about it, he said, "Okay, I'll tell Jianguo later."
"Old Xu!" Su Wenshan said again: "Everything we do now is for the children, right?"
Xu Likang didn't know what he was going to say, so he just hummed. Then he heard Su Wenshan say, "The four daughters of the Gu family are all excellent. As parents, we have to make them proud."
Among the sons-in-law of the Gu family, there is a ceiling for who can be chosen by their fathers.
Xu Likang didn't understand what he meant and said, "How can I embarrass him?"
Su Wenshan: "Try your best."
If your son competes with Zhang Zijun for his father, he will definitely be crushed into pieces in seconds!
Xu Likang: “”
After hanging up the phone, Xu Likang felt a little uncomfortable. He knew that the daughters of the Gu family had all married well, but he was no worse than Su Wenshan and the others, right?
It must be Su Wenshan who wanted to frame me on purpose.
