Chapter 21: Show Your Love Openly
"There is good news and there is bad news. Which one do you want to hear first?"
Gu Shenyan was deliberately showing off while driving. Ye Qinru looked at him sideways and thought for a moment, "Let's hear the bad news first. It will be bitter first and then sweet."
"The bad news is..."
Seeing Ye Qinru's nervous look, Gu Shenyan was a little amused, "Actually, it's not bad news for you."
"Oh, please tell me quickly."
Ye Qinru's heart was lifted.
"The Ye family's financial crisis has become intense. The Gu family's investment of one billion has had little effect, but a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, so it can still survive for a while."
Gu Shenyan spoke lightly, but Ye Qinru felt very guilty, "I'm sorry, I caused you to lose a billion."
She knew that Gu Shenyan's billion was wasted, and his money didn't come from the sky, so it just filled Ye's bottomless pit.
"Don't take it too seriously."
Gu Shenyan drove with one hand and held Ye Qinru's hand with the other hand, "The Ye family has been punished for treating you like this."
Ye Qinru sighed. Ye Guo forced her to get one billion for her marriage, but the result was not what he wanted. He couldn't blame others.
"Tell me the good news to cheer you up."
Gu Shenyan smiled and said, "Your mother's physical indicators have passed. The doctor said that the surgery can be arranged tomorrow."
"real?"
Ye Qinru looked at Gu Shenyan in disbelief. He pulled over the car, took out his mobile phone and called up the video sent by the doctor to show her, "Listen to the doctor's analysis yourself."
Ye Qinru clicked on the video and listened to the doctor analyze Yang Limei's physical condition and the plan for tomorrow's surgery.
"Very good."
She was so excited that she cried, "My mother has undergone surgery and can open her eyes and see me again."
"Silly girl, this is something to be happy about, don't cry anymore."
Gu Shenyan stretched out her hand to take Ye Qinru into her arms. She did not reject him and hugged his waist. She choked and said, "Thank you, Gu Shenyan."
"I am your husband, and I should do this for you."
Gu Shenyan kissed the top of Ye Qinru's hair, "Stop crying, I will accompany you to the hospital early tomorrow morning."
"Um."
Ye Qinru pushed Gu Shenyan away, her cheeks a little red, "My mother's surgery will go smoothly. When she recovers, I will take her around."
"Okay, I will make arrangements then."
Gu Shenyan restarted the car and drove towards his old house.
…
Back at the old house, Gu Shenyan parked the car and walked into the hall with Ye Qinru in his arms. He frowned when he heard Gu Xingzhi's voice.
"Hey, sister-in-law is back."
Gu Xingzhi greeted Ye Qinru and deliberately ignored Gu Shenyan.
Ye Qinru nodded towards him, holding Gu Shenyan's arm, "Hubby, let's sit here."
Gu Shenyan looked sideways at her, she smiled and gestured, and they sat on the other side of the old lady.
"Eat fruit."
Gu Shenyan picked up a fork and forked a piece of apple and handed it to Ye Qinru's mouth. She took a bite, and he put the rest of the apple into his mouth and ate it.
"Uh, what are you doing?"
Ye Qinru's face turned red. How could Gu Shenyan eat something she had bitten in front of so many people? It was too ambiguous.
"My wife's leftovers taste delicious and I love to eat them."
Gu Shenyan's blatant display of affection made the old lady smile from ear to ear, "Seeing the relationship between you two is so good, my heart is sweeter than drinking honey."
"Hate."
Ye Qinru was very shy and knew that Gu Shenyan was acting in front of the old lady and Gu Xingzhi.
"Old lady, the dessert is ready."
The butler came over with a tray and placed the just right Tremella Fungus and Lotus Seed Soup in front of several people.
Gu Shenyan picked up a bowl of dessert, scooped out half a spoonful and fed it to Ye Qinru. She opened her mouth to eat in embarrassment, then reached out to take the bowl, "I can just eat it myself."
Gu Xingzhi sat on the other side of the sofa, smiled, and said, "Sister-in-law and Brother Shenyan have a very good relationship, which is really enviable."
"If you are envious, just get a wife and come in."
The old lady looked at Gu Xingzhi and said, "You are no longer young. It's time to find a woman to settle down and live your life."
"I have to find a woman I like."
Gu Xingzhi's peach blossom eyes fell on Ye Qinru, and his tone was a bit complaining, "Grandma is really partial. She found such a good wife for Brother Shenyan, but she didn't even think about finding one for me."
"Okay, okay, grandma will also choose a suitable wife for you."
The old lady was smiling and in a good mood.
Ye Qin subconsciously glanced at Gu Shenyan and found that his face was a little gloomy. She reached out to hold his hand, approached him and asked in a low voice, "What's wrong with you?"
"fine."
Gu Shenyan took Ye Qinru's hand into his palm and gently rubbed the back of her hand with his fingers.
She felt a little itchy and wanted to withdraw her hand, but he closed his fingers to prevent her from pulling away.
"What are you doing?"
Ye Qinru glanced at the old lady sheepishly. The old lady ate the dessert with a spoon and muttered, "You guys go on, I didn't see anything."
"Brother Shenyan is so lucky."
Gu Xingzhi had a smile on his face, but his words were very sour.
Gu Shenyan looked sideways at him and said coldly, "Put away your inappropriate thoughts and don't touch my bottom line again."
"Grandma, look at how stingy Brother Shenyan is. My sister-in-law is such a good woman, and I can't even admire her."
Gu Xingzhi's peach blossom eyes seemed to be sparkling with electricity, but Ye Qinru turned a blind eye and continued to play finger games with Gu Shenyan.
Gu Shenyan held Ye Qinru's hand and stood up, "Grandma, let's go for a walk in the garden."
"Go ahead, dinner will be served soon, and the butler will call you."
The old lady nodded. They were newly married and it was normal for them to feel like they were glued to each other.
Gu Xingzhi looked at Ye Qinru's figure, narrowed his eyes slightly, and raised an evil smile on his lips.
There was a rocking chair in the garden. Ye Qinru sat on the rocking chair and looked up at Gu Shenyan, "Are you unhappy?"
"No."
Gu Shenyan denied it, walked behind her, pushed the rocking chair, and the rocking chair began to rock back and forth.
"I can see that."
Ye Qinru was not stupid, and Gu Shenyan had a bad look every time he saw Gu Xingzhi.
"Don't think too much about it."
Gu Shenyan raised her hand and rubbed the top of Ye Qinru's hair, "Have a good sleep at night, and you will have the energy to wait in the hospital tomorrow."
"Um."
Ye Qinru jumped off the rocking chair, tilted her head and looked at Gu Shenyan, "You have helped me so much, how should I repay you?"
"You have already pledged yourself to me."
Gu Shenyan shrugged, his expression no longer as cold as before.
"Gu Shenyan, I will protect you well and won't let others bully you."
Ye Qinru looked very serious. She guessed that Gu Xingzhi must have done something to offend Gu Shenyan. That's why he had a dark face when he saw Gu Xingzhi and was not even willing to pretend to be friendly.
