Chapter 306 Clingy
After Chu Yan left, the main gate was closed.
Yao Jinse looked at Gu Yin and said with a smile, "A-Yin, do you want to wait with us in the car, or go back to school?"
The vehicle that the Gu family brought was a motorhome, and it had a very large interior space.
Madam Chu smiled and pointed to the carriage: "There's plenty of food prepared inside, shall we go up together?"
Gu Yin didn't really want to go back. After all, on such an important day as the college entrance examination, having someone waiting for her outside was truly a blessing, a kind of happiness she had never experienced in her previous life.
"Okay, then I'll take my leave." With that, he got into the car with them.
The car had a refrigerator, a kitchenette, a wine cabinet, a dining table, and several single beds; it was even bigger and more luxurious than the celebrity RVs she had seen in her previous life.
Yao Jinse took out several boxes of pastries and cakes from the refrigerator, the old lady took out fruit, and the old man took out milk and snacks, placing them all in front of Gu Yin.
Gu Yin: "..." Gu Yin didn't know which one to eat for a moment.
Yao Jinse cut the cake into small pieces: "Eat the cake first. This is something we brought from Beijing. Ayan said you like cakes from this place, so I got the strawberry flavor. I don't know if you like it."
Gu Yin had eaten there a few times when she went to the capital. Later, Chu Yan would bring one back every time he returned to the capital for a holiday. Unexpectedly, the rest of the Chu family knew about it, and Gu Yin felt a little embarrassed.
I took a piece of cake, took a bite, and found it very sweet but not cloying.
Gu Yin looked up and saw that all three of them were looking at her. She smiled and said, "It's delicious! Grandpa and Grandma are eating too, and so is Aunt Chu."
Seeing that the little girl genuinely liked him, the three members of the Chu family smiled inwardly. They didn't dare to stare at her too much, lest they scare her away and their grandson/son couldn't find her later.
After they had almost finished eating, Old Master Chu looked at Gu Yin and asked, "The Zhou family has withdrawn from their previous subsidiary. Judging from your grandfather's words, it seems they want to move the headquarters to Beijing. What do you think about this?"
Gu Yin knew about this. After learning that the Gu family intended to settle in Beijing, Zhou Wansheng, who had just been discharged from the hospital, wanted to move his company there so that he could spend more time with his son's family. In addition, the policies offered by Beijing were quite good.
When Gu Yin found out about this, she told him not to bother. The headquarters was in Hong Kong, which was much better than in Beijing. After all, it was a shipping company. With the headquarters there, the dock issues could be handled in a timely manner. There was no need to move to Beijing, which was so far away, for their sake. Zhou Wansheng had no choice but to give up.
“Grandpa Zhou called me a couple of days ago, and I told him that it wasn’t necessary, so the plan has been stopped. However, he recently plans to get involved in the jewelry industry and open a company in Beijing. Grandma Zhou is the designer.”
There's nothing to hide about this. The Chu family's businesses don't include jewelry, so the two companies aren't competitors.
When Grandpa Chu heard Gu Yin's answer, he smiled and nodded: "It's really not good for a company to want to change the location of its headquarters after it has grown big and strong. As for the jewelry company he opened, I even helped him find the address. That old man is quite willing to let your grandma come over!" He still has to have a long-distance relationship in his old age, hahaha, it's hilarious!
Gu Yin thought to herself that it wasn't that he was willing to leave, but that the old lady herself wanted to come, and no one could stop her. Because of this, the old man complained to Gu Yin and Gu Le, saying that he was pitiful for leaving him there alone, and he was scolded by Wang Yanzhi for it.
Old Madam Chu knew exactly what her boss was thinking. She scoffed, "At our age, what's wrong with being apart for a few days? If we really miss each other, we can just fly over and we'll be separated in a few hours, it's very convenient! Unlike the men of your Chu family, who practically cling to each other when they go shopping! What, are we not coming back after we go out? How can we be so clingy?"
Yao Jinse, standing beside her, nodded in empathy. It was indeed true. Heaven knows her own business was related to clothing, but Chu Xiong, wanting to see her every moment, had opened her studio in the Chu family's building, sharing an office with her. Even when she went on business trips abroad, unless he was particularly busy, he would bring his work with him. She had never met such a clingy person! Oh, she had met one before—her father-in-law.
Grandpa Chu didn't feel ashamed of being clingy with his wife.
He frowned and said, "I married you because I liked you. Of course, if I like you, I'd want to be with you all the time. Isn't that normal? If I didn't want to be with you, why would I get married? Besides, when you go shopping, don't you need someone to carry your bag and pay? If I don't go, why should someone else carry it? You're my wife, why should I let someone else interfere? It's really strange, but all the men in our Chu family are like this!"
Suddenly, the image of Chu Yan clinging to her popped into Gu Yin's mind. She couldn't help but laugh as she thought about it. She wondered what he would be like when he was clingy, but she didn't see any clingy impression of him now.
What's making you so happy?
Gu Yin turned her head and saw Chu Yan standing at the car door, about to get in.
"You're out?! So fast?" Gu Yin glanced at the time; there was still an hour before the exam ended. That fast?! This is Chinese class, the class with the most characters to write!
Chu Yan nodded: "I came out as soon as I finished writing. It was too easy. I wrote the essay first, and after that, the rest didn't take much time." After saying that, he got into the car.
Hearing this, everyone felt relieved. Although they knew that Chu Yan's grades had always been excellent, this was a common problem in the family; they would still get nervous when they needed to be.
Yao Jinse handed him a bottle of water that wasn't too cold, and then asked, "Do you want to rest for a while before going out to eat, or eat in the car? There are vegetables in the refrigerator; you can just ask Aunt Zhu to come and cook."
Apart from the old lady who could make some soup, no one else in the Chu family knew how to cook.
Chu Yan took the water and sat down next to Gu Yin.
The space that had seemed spacious before suddenly felt cramped when such a tall man sat down, so Gu Yin moved to the side.
After she finished moving the water, Chu Yan glanced at her, said nothing, and put the water on the table.
"Let's go out to eat. After we eat, I'll go back to my dorm to rest. You guys go back to Beijing. It's so hot here, you don't need to stay with me all the time. It's just an exam."
The old man snorted, "I wasn't planning on staying with you until the end of your exams. We'll leave after dinner so you won't find fault with us!"
Chu Yan picked up a small piece of cake without looking up: "Good to know. Let's go eat, otherwise it will be difficult to leave when the others come out."
As soon as Gu Yin got out of the car, a baseball cap was pressed down on her head. When she reached up, she found it was on her head.
"It's sunny, put on your hat, it's not good to get sunburned." Chu Yan's lazy voice came from the side.
Gu Yin did not refuse, adjusted her hat, while the old man and the others got out of the car with umbrellas.
The group had only taken a few steps when a noisy commotion came from ahead.
