Chapter 129 Visiting the Gu Family
On this day of holiday, Jinran got up early, thinking of taking a good look around the capital, looking for business opportunities, and if possible, inquiring about courtyard houses.
She's been eyeing the courtyard houses she's had for so long, and the apartments within the Second Ring Road—she'll buy as many as she can. That way, she'll be the richest girl in the world. If she runs out of money, she can just sell one apartment and live off it for twenty years.
Just thinking about it makes me happy.
After getting ready, Feng Lijuan continued to try and get closer to Shen Jinran, "Are you going out? Are you okay by yourself? I'm free today, I can keep you company."
Jinran politely declined, "No need, I can manage on my own. I have some personal matters to attend to today."
Feng Lijuan nodded and said, "Okay, then another day."
Jinran didn't understand why Feng Lijuan had her eye on her. According to her observation, the people Feng Lijuan associated with were all from well-off families and were the kind of people who could give her gifts. Jinran thought she was very low-key and hadn't flaunted her wealth, so why would she be interested in her?
However, Jinran was unaware that the quilt she was using had no patches, and that she had bought two thermos flasks, as well as towels for wiping her face. Every little detail indicated that she lived in a wealthy family.
Okay, she came clean, she stopped pretending, she's a multi-millionaire.
Jinran, carrying a crossbody bag, skipped and hopped out of the school, feeling extremely carefree. Finally, she didn't have to think about the unspeakable stories of the corrupt emperors and their concubines in history.
Her day of shopping and eating began.
Jinran slammed on the brakes when she saw Gu Siyan at the school gate, but he still saw her. His gaze was like a knife, shooting straight at Jinran. Jinran understood the meaning behind his gaze: "If you hide again, I'll cut you into eight pieces."
Jinran has been extremely well-behaved in class lately because of Professor Gu's strict discipline; she doesn't dare to resist at all.
She fawned over Gu Siyan, smiling obsequiously, and asked, "Gu... Siyan, what are you doing here? Are you waiting for someone? If so, I'll be going now, so as not to keep you any longer."
As Jinran turned to leave, Gu Siyan grabbed her hair and said coldly, "Unfortunately, I was waiting for you."
Jinran was sealed away and tried to refuse, saying, "I have some personal matters to attend to today. You see..."
Gu Siyan asked slowly and deliberately, "Tell me about it!"
This lecherous playboy, does he even know what private matters are—things he doesn't want to tell you?!
Jinran said without any emotion, "It's not that important. Is there something you need me for?"
Gu Siyan smiled and said, "Come home with me. My grandfather asked me to take you home for dinner."
Jinran: So, even on vacation, I have to face Professor Gu?
Isn't she pitiful enough?
Do we have to keep targeting her and fleecing her?
The answer is yes.
Jinran knew that refusing was useless, but she still wanted to try. "It wouldn't be good for me to come to your door so abruptly. You see, the person I'm most familiar with in your family is Tuantuan, and then Professor Gu. I don't know the rest of you. It would be very awkward."
Gu Siyan waited a while longer, but still didn't hear Jinran say the words he was most familiar with.
She asked in an annoyed tone, "Don't you recognize me?"
Jinran, without thinking, said, "Not very familiar."
Gu Siyan said, "The three plates of mutton you ate that you boasted about weren't like that."
Jinran felt that she should bring something since it was her first visit, so she asked Gu Siyan, "Gu Siyan, what do you think I should buy?"
Gu Siyan didn't even lift his eyelids and said, "Who are you talking to, ma'am? Do we know each other?"
Jinran: "............" Stingy thing, drinking cold water.
When she arrived at the Gu family's house, Jinran was still empty-handed, which made her feel very embarrassed.
Professor Gu said warmly to Jinran, "Xiaoran, come here, I'll introduce you to some books later. Take them home and read them, and I'll test you on them later."
Jinran: "What does she have to feel guilty about? She's clearly the victim."
Tuantuan was there too, and said with the same enthusiasm as Professor Gu, "Does this mean I have to call you 'cousin-in-law' from now on? But I still feel closer to Nini. When are you two having a baby? I can help you take a look."
Jinran, you've really mastered the art of pressuring people to get married and have children.
Gu Siyan chimed in, "Your sister Nini said she doesn't know me and isn't familiar with me. I'm in a difficult position."
Jinran looked at Gu Siyan in shock, "Don't you feel guilty?"
Gu Siyan's smile held a hidden dagger, his eyes conveying, "What is guilt? Can you eat it?"
Damn it!!!
