Chapter 4
In response to Xu Yinyin's question, the system enthusiastically replied, "Yes, yes, the pretty girl is a love-brained person."
Xu Yanwen: “…”
Tang Wan sneered in her heart, what kind of melon is this? Bad review!
Xu Yanrui sighed softly. This was a well-known fact. How boring!
[Wait, let me guess. Generally, the daughters of wealthy families like men with completely different backgrounds from themselves. Their uncles-in-law are either gangsters or the sons of noble families from humble backgrounds.]
[However, my sister-in-law has an artistic air, is intellectual and gentle, and should like the latter. So my brother-in-law should be a poor and shrewd scholar, the kind who is both attractive and intimidating, and can't stop wanting to be with him, right?]
Xu Yanwen pretended to drink tea, with a hint of approval in her eyes. The little girl understood her quite well.
[Wow, Yinyin is so awesome! You can even guess this! I knew it was right to bind you as a partner. My uncle-in-law 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 for everything, also passed away after he got married. He's a typical beautiful, strong, and tragic character.]
[It doesn't matter, as long as my 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 relationship and marriage. She fell in love with him at first sight and insisted on marrying him. She even almost broke up with her family for him. You know, the old man in this family is very strict and attaches great importance to matching.]
I get it, I get it. Dad and Bai Yueguang were separated before, but Grandpa still doesn't understand the love-brained thing. To my aunt, my uncle is the indispensable light in her life. Everything else must make way for this light. Anyone who dares to question it will be wiped out! Picking wild vegetables is nothing. Just say "I love you" and I'll offer you my heart, liver, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. You can choose whatever you want.
[Huh? This is too crazy.]
[That's what love-brained people are like. The more outsiders try to persuade or obstruct her, the more excited she becomes. She's just a rebel. If you really want to solve this problem, there are ways to do it.]
What method?
Except for Xu Yanwen, everyone pricked up their ears and waited for what would happen next. Why don’t you continue?
Old Master Xu, who had been secretly observing everyone at the stairs, 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 from the corner of her eye that everyone was looking at her and was stunned.
[Why are they all 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 fail. No matter how outstanding a man is, as long as he marries a rich woman, he will be regarded as a gigolo.]
Any man with a bit of self-respect would not tolerate such a title. Perhaps my uncle has been preparing a big move for a long time, waiting for him to be fully grown and then kick my sister-in-law out of the house and take away all the family property.
[Yes, yes, my uncle-in-law does harbor evil intentions. The old man has warned my aunt more than once, but she refuses to listen. There's no hope for her.]
If there was hope, it wouldn't be called love-brained. By the way, why hasn't my uncle come yet? I really want to see what this evil man who brought disaster to the country looks like. How could he make my beautiful aunt so infatuated with him?
[He arrived early, and his car was parked on the boulevard 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?
[Uh, just, just a scene play, a cool and domineering boss and a pretty secretary, applauding for love]
[Wow, my uncle-in-law is really good at playing games! ]
"Bang--" Xu Yanwen placed the teacup heavily on the coffee 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-badge flashing in their eyes - fight, fight!
Xu Yinyin was frightened and looked at her aunt tremblingly.
[What's wrong? My aunt looks really angry. Who provoked her?]
Xu Yao subconsciously looked at Xu Yinyin, mumbling something with a look of wanting to say something but stopping herself.
The atmosphere was at a stalemate 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 the 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 accepted her fate, calmed down, and greeted her father with a smile.
"Acheng should be here. I'll go outside to check." She explained as if she knew nothing.
The old man nodded and glanced at her. Although he was smiling, Xu Yanwen felt helpless as if her lie had been seen through. She subconsciously avoided his gaze.
Can everyone hear Yin Yin's thoughts?
Xu Yanwen was eager to verify the information said by the other voice at this moment 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 immersed in work than accompanying her.
She actually understood the purpose behind his efforts. He was eager to prove that he was not relying 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 rashly as long as he did not contact her.
He would also take time out on weekends to spend time with her, and although he spent most of his time on the phone talking business, it did not affect her love for him.
Because in her opinion, his willingness to put aside his work temporarily to see her was already a manifestation of his care, and she shouldn't ask for more.
After getting married, even though the two of them were often apart, she didn't think there was anything wrong with it, because if you love someone, you should 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 told her what Guo Cheng was doing at the moment, she was really angry.
This is clearly slander and 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's warning to her to be wary of Ah Cheng happened three days ago, when Yin Yin had not come yet.
So, she had to go and see it for herself 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 habits, everything about him is covered with a thick filter, and no faults or shortcomings can be found.
"Where are you going, miss?"
The driver respectfully opened the door for her.
Xu Yanwen replied somewhat absentmindedly, "Let's 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 are you here just now? Everyone is here."
"Sorry, there's a traffic jam. Where are you going?"
Before Xu Yanwen could answer, the driver said, "Miss, you want to go to the boulevard 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? I'm sorry, I should have asked for 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.
[Umbro, the person you want to see is here]
As soon as the system finished speaking, Xu Yanwen came over with Guo Cheng's arm in hers, smiling sweetly.
[You know what? My uncle's looks are worthy of my aunt's unwavering determination. His ascetic face, paired with gold-rimmed glasses, makes him refined, elegant, and noble. He's a true gentleman.]
Xu Yanwen looked at Guo Cheng secretly and caught the fleeting surprise and anger in his eyes.
So, everyone can hear Yin Yin's voice.
[Hey, just based on this appearance, anyone with poor concentration would fall for her in a minute, not to mention a love-brained girl]
I almost suspect 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 playboy with a heart that has no feelings or love. They are two extremes.
[The old man is unlucky to have children like this. Even if he can recover from a stroke, 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 gaze happened to meet the old man's.
Xu Yinyin was stunned.
[Uh, this is embarrassing]
She tried to force a polite smile and called out sweetly, "Hello, Grandpa."
The old man held the dignity that only a superior possessed, and his deep voice softened slightly as he nodded, "Don't be restrained. This is your home too."
"Well, thank you, Grandpa."
A trace of relief welled up in the old man's eyes. The little girl looked simple, but her mind was quite active, and what she said while criticizing others was very reasonable.
Looking at it this way, I'm afraid all of my excellent genes have been passed down to my granddaughter, skipping generations?
