Zhan Dapeng suddenly felt a sense of relief that he was just an ordinary citizen, and not an heir to any great family clan; otherwise, he wouldn’t even have his freedom.
Before the water in the pot started to boil, Gu Nuan walked to one side, preparing to call her mother.
Generally speaking, video calls were expensive. If both parties weren’t using their ho’s free Wi-Fi, they would opt to text instead of making a video call. But occasionally, like now, Gu Nuan felt uneasy, and it wasn’t due to her own issues—it was rely because her mother had left just as Tang Sili and Ou Yanan showed up at the door.
The two events were separated by no more than a few seconds.
When she made the call, it rang several tis with no answer. This only increased Gu Nuan’s anxiety.
Click.
Finally, soone answered.
It was the voice of Aunt Qiu.
: "Gu Nuan?" Aunt Qiu called out from the other side of the video, her expression so exaggerated, her muscles almost seed to bulge as she smiled at Gu Nuan.
Gu Nuan almost cringed in response and asked, "Aunt Qiu, where’s my mom?"
: "Your mom’s in the bathroom, I’m answering for her. She’s taking a bath," Aunt Qiu explained.
A bath so early?
: "Our bathroom is small, just one; a few people cram in there together. Your mom said she’d go first," Aunt Qiu said.
It sounded normal enough.
Aunt Qiu continued, her expression mysteriously suggestive, gesturing and writing to Gu Nuan, "Your mom ca to see you today; where did you two go? Did she say anything to you?"
What could her mom have told her? Was there sothing her mom didn’t tell her?
This caused Gu Nuan to rember the expression on her mother’s face earlier. She narrowed her eyes and asked, "Aunt Qiu, what is it? My mom ntioned it briefly to , but I didn’t quite understand."
Aunt Qiu, unaware of the trap, imdiately blurted out, "I know I’m ddling. Just after I ntioned it last ti, didn’t you scold your dad and ? But honestly, I an well for your family. Gu Nuan, Aunt Qiu knows you’re proud, and ordinary n wouldn’t dare approach you. This man, your mom t him and thought his temperant was good. Don’t think just because he seems like he’s been married, he’s actually still a virgin, and has never ssed around with any woman—Aunt Qiu guarantees that. If he hadn’t looked down on our Jiali, why would I reluctantly offer him to you?"
So that was the issue.
Aunt Qiu hadn’t given up her matchmaking ways. She had sothing in common with the Xiao sisters in this regard.
Gu Nuan had never known that won at that age liked playing matchmaker so much.
It all ca down to interests driving them.
Of course, Gu Nuan doubted that her mom, having t her husband today, would continue to ntion the man Aunt Qiu introduced to her, so that plan was definitely off.
Gu Nuan coughed lightly and was just about to say sothing.
Suddenly, a cold hand reached over her shoulder and shut off her phone with a tap.
The soup on the kitchen stove was actually boiling over, sounding a warning alarm. Puzzled by this, the three n in the living room felt sothing was off; Xiao Yebai imdiately sprang up and walked into the kitchen worried about his wife. As he got closer, he realized she was on a call, which outraged him.
Soone was indeed trying to encourage his wife to cuckold him!
Gu Nuan turned around and indeed saw Yebai’s face stiffen like a steel plate, his eyes filled with resentnt and murderous intent towards soone.
