An He Nuan looked at Gu Zhou gently and helplessly.
"What's our relationship? There's no need to be so polite."
Gu Zhou put his hands in his pockets, a look of fatigue between his brows. "I'll arrange a caregiver for him, so I won't bother you."
An He Nuan reached out and picked up her bag. "Okay, Gu Jin, take care of yourself. Don't do this again." She turned around and said, "Gu Zhou, I'll go back first."
Gu Zhou extended his hand as if to invite someone, and then followed suit, "Let me take you there."
An He Nuan did not refuse, "I'll pay you back for the dress I paid for last time." She handed Gu Zhou a bank card. Although the dress was very expensive and almost took up most of her savings, she still had to pay it back. She wanted to be on the same level as Gu Zhou and Chen Yu. In fact, she once thought that it would be great if she were Gu Wan. At least she wouldn't have to study so hard. Even if she didn't go to college, she could still get the recognition of the Shen family. Even a proud person like Shen's mother could treat her well.
Gu Zhou looked down at the card. He knew An He Nuan was proud of herself, so he reached out and took it. "Okay." Then he thought again, "You returned to China to run your own embroidery studio. How is it going now?"
An He Nuan sighed when she talked about this, "Not very good. There are too many people doing self-media now. I still have to take it step by step."
Gu Zhou knew this to some extent. The Gu family had grown bigger and bigger over the years, and was involved in all aspects. "Remember to come to me if you need help."
The two of them were talking as they arrived at the hospital entrance. "I'll ask the driver to take you home." Gu Zhou took out his cell phone and made a call, then waited with An He Nuan.
An He Nuan looked at him. In fact, she had also been attracted to Gu Zhou back then, but Chen Yu was more dazzling at that time. However, feelings are like this, there is no way to control them, and there are only regrets. Moreover, Gu Zhou never confessed his feelings to her.
"By the way, Miss Gu came today, but she had an argument with Gu Jin and left again."
Gu Zhou pushed his glasses with one hand. Gu Jin has always been extreme towards Gu Wan.
An He Nuan continued, "At Aunt Shen's birthday party the other day, Miss Gu wore a really beautiful cheongsam. Could you tell me who made it? The workmanship is excellent, and I'd like to visit and learn from them."
Gu Zhou didn't understand this. "Well, she must have bought it herself. I don't know."
An He Nuan felt a little happy when he said that. After all, he had given her the clothes personally. "Thank you, old classmate."
Gu Zhou watched An He Nuan get into the car, and he thought of the shirt he made this morning. She must have stayed up late many nights to make it with all her heart.
Back in the ward, Gu Jin was watching TV boredly.
Gu Zhou understood the situation and felt relieved when he knew it was not a big problem, so he sat on the sofa next to him.
"Did Gu Wan come here today?"
When Gu Jin heard him mention Gu Wan's hand, he shook it unconsciously, "Yeah, here I come."
Gu Zhou reached out and poured him a glass of water. "Don't bother He Nuan so much if you have any problems in the future."
Gu Jin frowned and looked at him, "Why? Big brother."
Gu Zhou looked into his eyes. "Gu Jin, you like her, don't you? He Nuan is a very smart girl. How could she not know that you like her? But no response means no result."
Gu Jin lowered his head. Of course he knew, "Brother, you like her too, right?"
Gu Zhou reached out and knocked him on the head. He really didn't know what he was thinking about all day long. "I don't like her. We're just friends."
Gu Jin folded his arms behind his head and said, "Brother, I don't know if I like her. I just feel that if mom were still alive, she would definitely care about me like this."
Gu Zhou is two years older than Gu Zhou. When his mother died, she was seven years old and he was five years old.
The ward suddenly became very quiet.
Gu Jin stayed in the hospital for two days and then returned to the villa.
Gu Wan adhered to what she had said before at home and treated Gu Jin like a stranger.
On Saturday, Gu Wan chose a fresh and elegant skirt early in the morning, simply curled her hair, and went downstairs to eat neatly dressed.
Because Gu Jin was injured, Gu Zhou basically stayed at home these two days. He was usually very busy with work and always stayed in an apartment near the company, or sometimes in a hotel.
Gu Wan greeted Gu Zhou.
"Good morning, big brother."
Gu Zhou also nodded slightly, and seeing her like this, "Are you going to Grandpa Shen's house today?"
Gu Wan nodded while drinking wontons, and then saw that he was still drinking cold milk, "Brother, you can't drink something so cold in the morning." After saying that, she looked at Aunt Liu, "From now on, brother, you must have hot milk for breakfast, or drink something like wonton tofu pudding."
Aunt Liu quickly sighed and agreed.
Gu Zhou did not say anything to stop him.
Gu Jin also had wontons. He needed to supplement his nutrition, so he made chicken soup wontons specially for him.
Gu Wan lowered her head to drink wontons, and she knew that this was the right move. Gu Zhou was a rational person. Although he was thoughtful and might be able to see through her tricks, he also knew that everything he did was to get close to him. He also needed someone who cared about him so much, especially someone like a family member, so he would acquiesce, and would acquiesce infinitely until he treated her as his real sister.
Gu Zhou saw that she was in a good mood today. It should be because she saw Grandpa Shen that she was like this. "How is your recent review? Are you confident?"
Gu Wan knew it would work, that he would take the initiative to care about her, so she raised her head and hummed, "I think I should be able to do it, don't worry, big brother."
Gu Zhou was not a talkative person, so he didn't say anything more.
Gu Wan drank half a bowl of wontons and said, "Brother, I'm leaving first."
Grandpa Shen lives in the old house of the Shen family, which is quite far away, so he needs to leave early, “Aunt Liu, you don’t have to cook my lunch at noon, you should eat at Grandpa Shen’s place.”
Aunt Liu has become more and more fond of this young lady these days.
"Okay, I'll make a note of it."
It was also the first time that Gu Zhou discovered that Gu Wan seemed to get along very well with her family.
Gu Wan asked the family driver to take her there.
After seeing Gu Wan leave, Gu Jin put on a sullen face and said, "Brother, look at Gu Wan, she's so arrogant. She didn't even dare to speak out loudly in front of us before."
Gu Zhou felt that the present was actually pretty good, and the past would eventually pass. "You are angry because she ignored you."
Gu Jin rolled his eyes. How could he?
After finishing his meal, Gu Zhou stood up in a good mood and said, "Aunt Liu, let's have wontons for breakfast tomorrow."
Aunt Liu smiled and nodded.
The Shen family's old house is just as described in the novel, with a single-family courtyard on the hillside.
Gu Wan didn't bring any gifts. When she was halfway there, she asked the driver to stop the car and picked a bunch of wild flowers.
Grandpa Shen was a close friend of the father of Gu Zhou and Gu Jin's biological mother, so he helped the Gu family so much back then. He liked Gu Wan and never cared about the previous generation, he only looked at this person.
When Gu Wan arrived, he was playing chess in the yard.
“Hello, Grandpa Shen, I send you a bouquet of gifts from nature.”
Mr. Shen took it and looked at it, "Not bad, you have learned flower arrangement quite well."
The original owner had actually learned it. When she returned to the Gu family, she couldn't wait to get everyone's recognition, so she learned a lot.
Gu Wan can do it herself.
"That is, grandpa thinks I am good and everything about me is good."
Old Master Shen laughed out loud, "You are such a clever fellow. Is Chen Yu coming today too?"
Gu Wan nodded, "Yes, I've already told him about it."
Mr. Shen nodded repeatedly, "That kid thinks highly of himself and is too proud. I'm afraid you'll have to suffer."
Gu Wan shook her head, "No."
Every time Gu Wan came, she would show off her cooking skills. The original owner could cook, but she had never done it. When she was at the Gu family, she was worried that her cooking skills would be looked down upon by the two Gu brothers.
She is also familiar with the aunts in the kitchen here.
It was almost eleven o'clock when Chen Yu arrived. Today was Saturday, and since he had promised Gu Wan that he would make arrangements in advance, he postponed all the social dinners for today.
"grandfather."
Mr. Shen was quite serious in front of Shen Yu. "Gu Wan arrived early and is cooking in the kitchen now. You are in for a treat today."
Chen Yu was dressed casually today. He poured a cup of tea for his grandfather and noticed a bouquet of flowers next to the table. "What are these flowers?"
Mr. Shen took a sip of tea and said, "How is it? Wanwan picked these on the road."
Chen Yu just thought that this flower was not precious, so why was it placed here? He didn't expect that it was brought by Gu Wan.
Gu Wan cooked home-cooked meals in the kitchen and prepared all the side dishes.
Chen Yu and Mr. Shen haven't seen each other for two months. It's related to the engagement, so he naturally wouldn't come if he didn't want to.
Mr. Shen glanced at him and said, "Gu Wan is a good girl, don't let her down."
Chen Yu nodded perfunctorily.
Gu Wan came out after cleaning up in the kitchen. Seeing Chen Yu, she smiled and said, "You're here. The meal will be ready soon. Try what I made today."
Chen Yu remembered that the last time he saw her, she was wearing a well-fitting cheongsam, gentle and elegant, but today she looked very energetic.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work."
Auntie brought out the food and put it on the table.
Gu Wan specially cooked fish soup for Mr. Shen and handed him a bowl. "Grandpa, come and try it. I contacted my aunt in advance yesterday and asked her to prepare the fish for me."
Chen Yu was originally waiting for her to finish serving the food to her grandfather before it was her turn, but she didn't even look at him, and continued talking to her grandfather and doing it herself.
Of course, Gu Wan would not be enthusiastic about him. After all, the character in front of him was just not pleasing to him, and if he didn't like her, there was no need to please her.
Chen Yu originally thought that there shouldn't be much difference, but he was a little surprised after taking a bite.
Mr. Shen looked at Shen Yu complacently, "How about it, you've gained some experience, right?"
Chen Yu and Gu Wan exchanged a glance and put down their bowls again, "It's indeed delicious."
The table was filled with home-cooked dishes, and the three of them talked while eating, without too many rules. Gu Wan livened up the atmosphere, and the whole process was unusually warm.
Mr. Shen needs a nap.
Chen Yu went to the study to take care of some work, and Gu Wan sat in the courtyard and picked up the leftover insoles from her last visit to make some for Grandpa Shen.
They promised to have dinner with the old man.
When Chen Yu finished work, he saw her sitting in the courtyard, concentrating on doing her work.
