After lunch, Su Ying wanted to go back to her room to rest, but Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu told her to go shopping.
Su Ying and Gu Sinian looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Grandma, what are you up to?"
Gu Sinian shook his head. Although he had already guessed what the two were planning to do, he still couldn't help but remind them at this crucial moment.
"Aren't you going too far?"
Gu Huadong and Yan Yan pretended not to hear and led the person out the door.
Gu Sinian and Su Ying were left with their eyes locked.
Based on what just happened and the conversation, if Su Ying's guess is correct, Gu Sinian should know something.
She grabbed the man's collar and pulled it down, saying, "Tell me. Do you know something? Tell me the truth."
Gu Sinian didn't intend to hide it from her. If his guess was correct, Qin Chengzhi and Yu Youtian were already in the same room.
"I suspect that my grandparents drugged those two idiots. They even drank the laced soup with relish."
"Luckily, they both have feelings for each other. Otherwise, it would be troublesome..."
Su Ying couldn't believe her ears. Her grandparents were so old, yet their thinking was so advanced that they came up with something as thrilling as drugging someone. It shocked her...
"Could you be mistaken? Grandpa and Grandma don't seem like the kind of people who would do something like this."
"If you don't believe me, you can go in and see for yourself." Gu Sinian pointed to the living room.
"But didn't Grandpa and Grandma tell us to go shopping and come back for dinner? It's not appropriate for us to just show up like this."
"This...where do we put the two elderly people's face? Let's just let them be since it's harmless."
Gu Sinian disagreed with this statement. "How can this be considered harmless? They've already resorted to such despicable methods as drugging and poisoning. Is it really okay to make this decision for them without even asking them?"
Su Ying looked helpless. "But the matter is already settled. Do you really want to go in and see them?"
He doesn't have that much ability.
With his grandparents around, how could he possibly go in to rescue them? What if he ruined their important event?
Out of sight, out of mind. "Let's go shopping."
"Are you serious?"
"Otherwise what? Do you want to stay here and watch the show?"
Forget it. She decided not to watch. With someone as shy as Sister Youtian, if she rashly rushed in, everyone would be embarrassed.
Since someone is already trying to matchmake her, why should she bother?
"Grandpa and Grandma really went to great lengths to arrange You Tian's marriage."
"They even used the methods they used to despise the most, just to find a good man for Sister Youtian."
"Yu Youtian is the granddaughter of my grandfather's old comrade-in-arms. Before he died, he entrusted her to him. My grandfather had originally arranged a marriage for her, but things didn't go as planned. Gu Sihan defiled her, forcing her to marry that beast Gu Sihan."
"Oh, there's such a part. No wonder Grandpa and Grandma went to such lengths for Yutian's marriage."
"It's rare to find someone like you, Third Brother, who doesn't mind that she's a divorcee. If Grandpa and Grandma saw this, they would definitely help catch her."
"It was well thought out of them."
"I just don't know if things will happen after they've had sex..."
Others may not know, but her third brother would definitely take full responsibility; otherwise, Grandpa and Grandma Gu wouldn't have come up with such a cowardly scheme.
They were certain that Third Brother would take responsibility.
Besides, her third brother genuinely likes her, so once this relationship develops, marriage should be on the agenda as soon as possible.
Su Ying suddenly felt like going shopping. "Let's go shopping!"
"Weren't you just going to watch the show? Why did you suddenly change your mind?"
"Buy a wedding gift."
"Huh? Who's getting married?"
“My third brother and Sister Youtian are getting married, so we have to give them wedding gifts, right?”
"We won't be staying in Beijing for long. Where will we buy wedding gifts after we get back to our base?"
That makes sense, it seems plausible. "Let's go. Let's go now."
As evening approached, everyone returned. Su Ying and Gu Sinian came back from the department store, having bought quite a few things.
She carried large and small bags into the living room, which was full of people. As soon as Gu Sishi saw the newcomers, she immediately went up to greet them.
"Sister-in-law, you didn't even let me know you were coming back. I could have taken leave and come back earlier."
"No need for that. Children should focus on their studies. I'm just coming back to visit my family, so I don't need to ask for leave at all."
"All right."
As soon as Su Ying entered, she turned her gaze to Yu Youtian and her third brother, whose expressions were awkward.
But her face was indeed unusually good.
She was very experienced in this kind of thing. Every time she was intimate with Gu Sinian, her complexion would become exceptionally good, and she would even save on skincare products.
It seems no one in the family knows about their relationship. No wonder they're Grandpa and Grandma Gu; they always do things in a respectable way.
Not only did they send the couple away, but they also cleaned up the battlefield while everyone else was back, and no one noticed the undercurrent in their eyes.
It seems things have worked out.
Old ginger is spicier.
With her gentle and mild-mannered approach, it would take forever for the two of them to get married.
Go get your marriage certificate now.
Before the two of them returned, Grandpa Gu, Grandma Gu, and Third Brother must have already reached some kind of agreement.
Instead of showing anger at being tricked, her third brother looked smug, which puzzled her.
"My third brother is grinning like a complete idiot. Doesn't he really care at all that Grandpa and Grandma are scheming against him?"
Gu Sinian muttered to himself, "Maybe things aren't what you think. Your grandparents didn't drug your brother at all."
Su Ying was shocked, "No way?"
"My grandparents are upright and honest people who never like to force others to do things. There is only one reason for this."
Su Ying's curiosity reached its peak: "Which one?"
“Your third brother wasn’t drugged. It was Yu Youtian who drugged him. Your grandparents had a backup plan. Your third brother can choose to save her or not.”
Su Ying instantly understood what was going on. "Then I understand. Even if my third brother is unwilling to save Sister You Tian, Grandpa and Grandma will give Sister You Tian the antidote."
"Is there an antidote for that thing? Isn't intercourse supposed to be the safest antidote?"
"No matter what it is, as long as it exists, there must be an antidote."
“That makes sense. Back then…”
Su Ying recalled that time in Willow Village when Gu Sinian was also drugged.
He gets angry when he talks about it, saying, "I was bitten by a pig breeding poison, and there's no antidote."
Su Ying tried hard not to laugh, but her shoulders kept shrugging.
"Stop laughing. Let's go eat first. Didn't you just say you were hungry?"
Yan Yan slapped her forehead. She was unusually excited because some things had just been resolved.
Yutian's marriage is settled.
"Yes, yes, yes. Let's eat first. Nothing is more important than eating. I can't let my two great-grandchildren go hungry."
"Guests are always welcome. Young Master Qin, come and have dinner with us."
"good."
The way Yu Youtian and Qin Chengzhi were positioned was so deliberate; even a fool could see there was something fishy going on between them.
