Chapter 81
at Gu Chi's face wasn't looking good.Oh, I see.Su Ke Xin thought, her ex-girlfriend's belongings being put up for auction, no wonder Gu Chi would be so nervous and angry.As Luo's older brother, how co...Upon hearing this from Gu Chi, Su Kexin felt a little more at ease. Following the old steward, she walked towards the study on the second floor.
Mr. Gu's study was very old-fashioned and elegant. With the scent of sandalwood burning, Su Keixin stepped inside and instantly felt like she had traveled through time.
The old man had changed into a long robe and was sitting behind his desk. From the moment she entered, his sharp gaze never left her.
Su Ke Xin tried her best to calm her nerves, walked up to the desk, and respectfully said, "Mr. Gu."
"What did you call me" Old Master Gu asked sternly.
Su Kexin was stunned and didn't react.
"Since you've married Gu Chi, you should follow him and call me grandfather." Seeing that Su Kexin didn't understand, Old Master Gu patiently explained, and finally added with a sneer, "You and your sister Lin Xiaoru are really different. One can't wait to call me grandpa, while the other refuses to."
Su Ke Xin's face turned pale.
Mr. Gu, it turns out he knew that she and Lin Xiaoru were sisters.
Of course, thinking about it, I've been married to Gu Chi for so long, it's impossible that the old man hasn't investigated me.
Anyway, since Grandpa Gu let her call him grandpa, he didn't mean to deny her as his granddaughter-in-law. This eased her mind a bit, and she sweetly called out, "Grandpa."
Mr. Gu was satisfied and nodded, then gestured with his chin, "Sit down."
Su Keixin sat obediently, and then heard Mr. Gu speak again in a majestic voice: "What do you think I called you for"
"It's about the photos for the banquet, right" Su Keqin mustered her courage and raised her head. Since she had this opportunity, she naturally wanted to explain clearly. "Grandpa, these photos are actually—"
Before she could even begin to explain, Old Master Gu had already raised his hand to stop her from continuing.
"You don't need to explain yourself to me," Old Master Gu said with a hint of impatience. "Don't you think, after all these years you've been married to Gu Chi, I wouldn't have figured out what you're up to"
Mr. Gu's wording was very clever; with just one "find out clearly," he expressed his meaning.
He not only investigated the events from two years ago, but also sought the truth, so he knew that Su Ke Xin was framed.
Su Kexin only then understood why Old Master Gu didn't seem surprised when he saw the photo, and even didn't blame me.
He had known about the swallow's arrival long ago.
Su Ke Xin breathed a sigh of relief and said sincerely, "Thank you, Grandpa."
"You don't have to thank me," Old Master Gu snorted. "You wouldn't think that I didn't pursue this matter because you were particularly innocent, would you"
Su Keixin was stunned once again.
It has to be said, Gu Chi is right, Old Master Gu's temperament is indeed quite eccentric, speaking ups and downs.
"For a family like ours, in theory, no matter whether what happened two years ago was your fault or not, having such a scandal, logically speaking, you wouldn't be able to enter the Gu family." Old Master Gu said coldly.
This logic, Su Ke Xin actually hadn't thought about it. Her face paled slightly, "So grandpa, why are you able to accept me"
"It wasn't me who accepted you, it was Gu Chi who accepted you." A hint of emotion suddenly appeared on Grandpa Gu's face. "For a whole ten years, ever since Ruo'er died, I thought Gu Chi would never like women again, or get married."
Su Keixin was taken aback.
Little one
Who is that
Was she a woman Gu Chi had liked
Although Su Keixin was puzzled, she didn't dare to ask the old man.
"But I didn't expect him to actually marry you." Old Master Gu's gaze fell on Su Kexin again, his eyes sharp. "At first, I thought you were just a pawn wife he used against me, but the last time we met and this banquet, I realized he truly cares for you."
Is Gu Chi interested in himself
Upon hearing Grandpa Gu's words, Su Kexin's heart skipped a beat inexplicably.
But she was still a little unconvinced.
Although Gu Chi was very good to her, this man was simply too excellent and too far out of reach. Su Ke Xin couldn't even imagine that he would have romantic feelings for her.
But of course, she wouldn't deny Old Master Gu face to face. Therefore, she just listened quietly.
"That's why I can accept you," Old Master Gu continued, his voice suddenly laced with fatigue. "As long as he likes it, I will agree."ngs. 。From now on, no, starting right this second, this ring is nothing more than an object she can trade for money. It holds no other meaning anymore. 。She wants to say goodbye to the past completely...
