Chapter 4
In response to Xu Yinyin's question, the system said with great interest: [Yes, yes, the pretty girl is a love-minded person.]
Xu Yanwen: “…”
Tang Wan sneered in her heart, what kind of melon is this? Bad review!
Xu Yanrui sighed quietly, this is a well-known fact, it’s useless!
[Wait, let me guess. Generally, the daughters of wealthy families like men with completely different backgrounds from themselves. Their uncles-in-law are either local hooligans or noblemen from poor families.]
[However, my sister-in-law has an artistic temperament, is intellectual and gentle, and should like the latter. Therefore, my sister-in-law should be a poor academic master who is arrogant because of his talent. He is both attractive and intimidating, and he can't stop, right? ]
Xu Yanwen pretended to drink tea, with a hint of praise in her eyes. The little girl understood her quite well.
[Wow, Yinyin is so good. You can even guess this. I knew it was right to tie you up as a partner. My uncle is indeed a top student. He lost his mother when he was young and his father when he was a teenager. His grandparents who depended on him also passed away after he got married. He is a typical beautiful, strong and tragic character.]
[It doesn't matter, as long as his aunt loves him, all the pain will be soothed]
[My aunt loves him, but he may not love her as much as she loves him. After all, it was my aunt who took the initiative from the pursuit to the love and marriage. She fell in love with him at first sight and wanted to marry him. She even almost broke up with her family for him. You know, the old man of this family is very strict and pays the most attention to the matching of social status.]
[I understand, I understand. Dad and Bai Yueguang were separated before, but Grandpa still doesn't understand love. To my aunt, my uncle is the indispensable light in her life. Everything must make way for this light. Anyone who dares to question will be killed! Digging wild vegetables is nothing. As long as you say I love you, my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys can be offered to you. You can choose whatever you want.]
[Huh? This is too crazy.]
[Love brain is like this. The more people persuade and stop her, the stronger she becomes. She is rebellious. If you really want to solve it, there is a way.]
What can we do?
Except for Xu Yanwen, everyone pricked up their ears and waited for what to say next. Why don’t you continue?
Mr. Xu, who had been secretly observing everyone at the staircase, took a deep breath and urged in his heart: Tell me quickly, don't force me to beg you!
Xu Yinyin cleared her throat, picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea. She noticed out of the corner of her eye that everyone was looking at her and was stunned.
[Why are they looking at me? Did I do something rude? ]
Everyone quickly looked away, some drank water, some ate snacks, and some played with their phones.
[No, everyone is busy with their own things, please tell me the solution]
[It's very simple. Just wait for my brother-in-law to fall from grace. No matter how good a man is, as long as he marries a rich woman, he will be regarded as a gigolo.]
[Any man with a little self-esteem can't stand this kind of title. Maybe the uncle-in-law has been preparing a big move for a long time, waiting to sweep the aunt out of the house once he is fully grown, and taking away all the family property.]
[Yes, yes, my uncle-in-law does have evil intentions. My grandfather has reminded my aunt more than once, but she refuses to listen. There is no hope for her.]
[If there is hope, then I wouldn’t be called a love-brained person. By the way, why hasn’t my uncle come yet? I really want to see what this evil man who brings disaster to the country looks like. How can he make my aunt, who is so obsessed with the country, unable to extricate herself?]
[He arrived early and parked his car on the tree-lined path outside the manor]
Xu Yanwen's heart tightened. She had just called him before entering the room, and he clearly said that he was still in the company.
【What are you doing in the parking lane? 】
[Well, just, it’s just a scenery play, a cool and domineering boss and a pretty secretary, please applaud.]
[Wow, my uncle-in-law is really good at playing! ]
"Bang--" Xu Yanwen slammed the teacup heavily on the tea table.
She stood up suddenly, her chest heaving and her little face turning green.
Xu Yanrui and his wife quickly glanced at Xu Yinyin, and then set their sights on Xu Yanwen, with the unique excitement of a melon-battler flashing in their eyes - let's fight!
Xu Yinyin was frightened and looked at her aunt tremblingly.
[What, what happened? My aunt looks really angry. Who provoked her? ]
Xu Yao subconsciously looked at Xu Yinyin, his mouth trembling, as if he wanted to say something but stopped.
The atmosphere was tense when the old man walked out from the corridor, looked down at the people downstairs, and broke the deadlock with a deep voice: "Is everyone here?"
"dad."
Xu Yanwen and his wife had just changed their clothes and came out. When they saw their old man, they hurried over to support him.
Everyone looked up and saw the energetic old man walking towards them. They all stood up to greet him.
When Xu Yanwen realized that she couldn't ask the question that was on the tip of her tongue, she resigned herself to her fate, calmed down her mood, and greeted her father with a smile.
"Ah Cheng should be here. I'll go outside to check." She explained, pretending to know nothing.
The old man nodded and glanced at her. Although he was smiling, Xu Yanwen felt helpless as if her lie had been discovered. She subconsciously avoided his gaze.
Is it possible that everyone can hear Yin Yin's voice?
At this moment, Xu Yanwen was eager to verify the information said by the other voice and could not care about anything else for the time being.
She hurriedly called the driver to prepare the car and planned to check it herself.
It is undeniable that there has always been a gap between her and Guo Cheng, which is essentially due to their unequal backgrounds.
Whether before or after marriage, he always spent more time on work than with her.
She actually understood the purpose behind his efforts. He was eager to prove that he didn't rely on anyone.
In order to let him concentrate on his work, she took the initiative to reduce their meeting time, and would not disturb him as long as he did not contact her.
He would also take time out on weekends to spend time with her, and even though he spent most of his time on the phone talking business, it did not affect her love for him.
Because in her opinion, the fact that he was willing to put down his work temporarily in order to see her was already a manifestation of his care for her, and she shouldn't ask for more.
After getting married, even though the two of them were together less often than together, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, because if you like someone, you have to support him unconditionally and give him the greatest freedom. As long as he is happy, that is the happiness she pursues.
But when the voice revealed what Guo Cheng was doing at the moment, she was really angry.
This is clearly slander, a rumor without any factual basis. Her Ah Cheng is definitely not such a shameless person.
However, after her anger, she became a little panicked because her father had warned her to be careful of Ah Cheng three days ago, and Yin Yin had not come yet.
So, she had to go and see it in person no matter what.
Xu Yanwen's steps were a little unsteady, and all that kept flashing through her mind were the little details of her time with Guo Cheng.
But due to long-standing habit, everything about him is filtered through a thick filter, and no faults or shortcomings can be found.
"Miss, where are you going?"
The driver respectfully opened the door for her.
Xu Yanwen replied absentmindedly, "Go to the tree-lined path outside the manor."
The driver was slightly stunned, then replied respectfully, "Yes."
As soon as Xu Yanwen sat down in the back seat, Guo Cheng knocked on the car window.
"Acheng." The moment Xu Yanwen saw Guo Cheng, she subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief.
She hurriedly opened the car door, happily took his arm, leaned on his shoulder affectionately, and said coquettishly, "Why did you come just now? Everyone is here."
"Sorry, the traffic is a bit congested. Where are you going?"
Before Xu Yanwen could answer, the driver said, "Miss, you want to go to the shaded path outside."
Xu Yanwen frowned slightly and glanced at the driver lightly.
Guo Cheng tried hard to suppress his surprise and said, "Is it too boring at home? Sorry, I should take a leave this afternoon to accompany you."
Listening to his apologetic tone and looking at the tenderness revealed in his deep eyes, Xu Yanwen's doubts completely disappeared.
She smiled and said, "It's okay, let's go in."
When the couple turned around, Guo Cheng glared at the driver coldly with a strong sense of blame.
[Yimbro, the person you want to see is here]
As soon as the system finished speaking, Xu Yanwen came over with Guo Cheng's arm around hers, smiling sweetly.
[You know what, my uncle's appearance is worthy of my aunt's unswerving love. His abstinent face matches his gold-rimmed glasses. He is gentle, refined, elegant, and reserved. He is definitely a gentleman.]
Xu Yanwen glanced at Guo Cheng secretly, and caught the fleeting surprise and anger in his eyes.
Therefore, everyone can hear Yinyin's voice.
[Ah, just based on this appearance, anyone with poor self-control would fall for her in a second, let alone falling in love with a brainy girl.]
[I simply suspect that the feng shui of the Shen family's ancestral tomb is bad. The eldest and third sons are romantic, while the second son is a heartless playboy. They are two extremes.]
[It's unlucky for the old man to have children like this. He can recover from a stroke, but he must be worried about his family business. Sometimes, being too rich is not necessarily a good thing.]
Xu Yinyin subconsciously glanced at Xu Hongshan, and her eyes happened to meet the old man's.
Xu Yinyin was stunned.
[Uh, this is embarrassing]
She tried to force out a polite smile and called out sweetly, "Hello, Grandpa."
The old man held the dignity that only a superior can have, and his deep voice softened a little, nodding and saying, "Don't be restrained, this is your home too."
"Well, thank you, Grandpa."
There was a hint of relief in the old man's eyes. The little girl looked simple, but she was quite smart and her comments made sense.
Looking at it this way, I'm afraid that all of my excellent genes have been passed down to my granddaughters, right?
