Chuzheng didn’t care about how Gu Yu was investigating; she had provided everything up to this point. If he still couldn’t figure it out, he might as well turn to the dark side.
Chuzheng sensed the tense atmosphere and noticed there were many more people around Gu Yu.
-
"Gu Yu! It’s Gu Yu!!"
"Where?"
"Right outside!"
During a break in filming, an excited voice drifted in, and the na Gu Yu sounded especially jarring.
She sat far away, glanced over, showing no intention of moving.
In just a few minutes, Gu Yu ca in from outside, followed by quite a few people who looked excited to the point of fainting.
Gu Yu was blocked outside for a while before managing to get inside.
There was soone guarding inside; those outside couldn’t enter, and they stood their ground craning their necks to see in.
Gu Yu strode up to Chuzheng: "You’re sitting comfortably."
Seeing him arrive, she didn’t react at all.
Chuzheng raised an eyebrow: "Visiting the set?"
"Can’t I?"
"How rare." Chuzheng murmured, "Since when does the Good Person Card visit the set voluntarily? It used to be because Old Madam Gu forced him."
Gu Yu’s eyes narrowed: "What did you say?"
Chuzheng looked serious: "Did I say sothing?"
Gu Yu: "..."
Gu Yu wasn’t bothered with arguing with her: "Where’s your rest area?"
Many people in the crew were glancing over, and so wanted to approach, but it wasn’t a good place to talk.
Only then did Chuzheng get up and lead Gu Yu to the resting area.
"Those two people outside will be with you from now on." Gu Yu found a place to sit on his own: "Don’t be alone."
Chuzheng seed thoughtful: "You’re having them protect ?"
"Sort of."
"I don’t need them." Chuzheng leaned slightly forward, supporting herself on the table: "However, if Mr. Gu is willing to protect personally, I might grudgingly accept it."
For the Good Person Card, I’ll just have to suck it up.
I’m just so nice.
"..."
Is she teasing ?
She definitely is!
But why does my heart feel like it’s beating faster?
Gu Yu suppressed the weird feeling: "Stop joking around."
Chuzheng pointed at her own face: "Do I look like I’m joking?"
"..." Gu Yu felt uneasy seeing Chuzheng’s face, like he was guilty.
Gu Yu: "I’m not joking with you. I’m considering your safety."
"For my safety, shouldn’t Mr. Gu protect personally?" Chuzheng said confidently: "Otherwise, I can protect you instead."
Gu Yu: "..."
Who needs her protection?
And up close?
Protect her, my foot!
Gu Yu said coldly: "They must stay with you."
"What if I refuse?"
"Divorce!"
"..."
Gu Yu left the people there for her and quickly left. Chuzheng looked at the tall and strong bodyguards outside and headed back to the resting area, feeling a headache coming on.
-
Gu Yu always liked to bring up divorce at the drop of a hat, so Chuzheng often let it slide, not wanting to contend with him.
After all, he’s her Good Person Card, and she had to cherish him.
But once, Old Madam Gu overheard, and Chuzheng watched Gu Yu get scolded by her, feeling imnsely satisfied.
Serves you right for talking about divorce!
Karma, isn’t it!
Gu Yu soon realized Old Madam Gu always coincidentally heard him ntioning divorce.
Gu Yu was fuming.
"You did it on purpose!!" How co she hears it every ti? She must be provoking him to say it!
"What?" Chuzheng asked seriously.
Gu Yu gritted his teeth: "Qin Chuzheng!"
"You brat, what kind of attitude is that?" Old Madam Gu appeared out of nowhere.
Gu Yu: "..." What attitude? He just called a na? Isn’t favoritism a bit too much?
He’s the biological one!
Gu Yu, after having his ear tugged by Old Madam Gu several tis, didn’t dare ntion those two words carelessly anymore.
Even if he couldn’t help it, he had to check left and right, making sure no one was around before daring to say it.
-
Gu Yu and Chuzheng’s wedding was brought up again; this ti Chuzheng t Gu Yu’s parents.
Father Gu and Mother Gu had always been abroad expanding overseas markets, and the original self only saw them once during the engagent.
But from the original self’s mory, Father Gu and Mother Gu weren’t very satisfied with the original self.
However, Old Madam Gu insisted, and the Gu Family’s tradition of filial piety made it hard for Father Gu and Mother Gu to oppose.
Now eting again, Father Gu and Mother Gu remained distant and formal towards her.
"Mom, back then you insisted on believing in that fortune teller who said the kid could ward off disasters for Gu Yu; it’s all superstitious nonsense, and now you’re really letting them get married?"
Chuzheng paused and glanced into the room.
Old Madam Gu sat on the sofa, Father Gu and Mother Gu were standing, and it was Father Gu speaking.
"Neither of the kids objected, and you still don’t agree?" Old Madam Gu said: "And the master wasn’t wrong."
"...Gu Yu agreed?" Father Gu focused on the first sentence.
He rembered the boy was very opposed to it; how could he agree?
Old Madam Gu snorted coldly: "They’ve already got the marriage certificates; could he not agree?"
Father Gu: "..."
What?
Did he hear that right?
Father Gu and Mother Gu exchanged a look, confirming neither had misheard, and Old Madam Gu indeed said so.
"Mom, when did they get the certificates? Why didn’t we know?"
"What do you know?" Old Madam Gu snapped: "Do you know when Gu Yu’s middle school graduation ceremony was? Do you know what awards Gu Yu has received? Do you know when Gu Yu has been ill? Do you know anything at all?"
Father Gu and Mother Gu: "..."
Old Madam Gu was very domineering: "This matter is settled; I called you back because the wedding needs you as the parents."
Father Gu and Mother Gu: "..."
Chuzheng left before they ca out and headed to Gu Yu’s study.
Gu Yu happened to be facing the door and saw her at once.
Chuzheng closed the door: "I have sothing to ask you."
Gu Yu lifted his chin, signaling her to ask.
"Did you know we got engaged because I could ward off disasters for you?"
Gu Yu was baffled: "What?" Ward off disasters?
"You didn’t know?"
"Know what?" Can’t you make it clear?
Chuzheng briefly told Gu Yu what she heard, and Gu Yu frowned: "I didn’t know anything about this."
However... when they got engaged, things indeed weren’t going smoothly for him during that period.
But after the engagent, everything went smoothly.
Chuzheng stepped forward and hugged Gu Yu: "Seems like I really can ward off disasters for you, right, Mr. Gu?"
"We can talk without getting physical..." Gu Yu felt uneasy but didn’t push her away.
Thinking about everything that had happened recently, Gu Yu, although reluctant to admit it, felt she seed to indeed bring him luck.
"Gu Yu, are you willing to marry now?"
Gu Yu stood up abruptly, angrily saying: "With the wedding planned, do I still have room to refuse?"
"You do."
Gu Yu turned back: "Really?"
"Yes." Chuzheng nodded: "Either way, whether you’re willing or not, the wedding will go on as scheduled."
Gu Yu: "..."
I knew it!!
