The love is so deep that Mr. Gu is crazy
Chapter 6 United Front
So this is Shen Li's mother-in-law? Shen Li's brain was working rapidly.
She thought it was just a simple meal with Gu Jingcheng's grandfather, and as an outsider she didn't need to know too much. All she knew from Gu Jingcheng were some things about Gu Zhengrong.
This stepmother doesn't look like a good person either, so she still has to be careful in dealing with her.
When Shan Daiyun introduced herself as Gu Jingcheng's stepmother, Gu Jingcheng's face became even uglier, and a cold light flashed in his eyes.
Shen Li just stood up and responded politely: "Hello."
Without knowing, the more you say, the more mistakes you make.
Gu Jingcheng was probably afraid that their relationship would be discovered by Shan Daiyun, so he stood up and prepared to leave.
He still ignored Shan Daiyun and only greeted Gu Zhengrong.
"Grandpa, we are almost done with our meal and it is getting late. We will go back first and come to see you next time."
Seeing him stand up, Shen Li also stood up tactfully. It would be better to escape from this Shura scene as soon as possible.
Gu Zhengrong's mind was as clear as a mirror. He glanced at Shan Daiyun calmly, and then shifted his gaze away from her.
"Okay, you have to take what I just said to heart."
"I know, Grandpa."
After Gu Jingcheng finished speaking, he prepared to take Shen Li away.
However, Shan Daiyun did not seem to have any intention of giving up, and his words sounded sarcastic.
"Jingcheng is leaving now. Don't be so anxious. I just met my daughter-in-law and we haven't had a good chat yet."
"If your uncles and aunts ask about it later, and you don't even know the name of Gu's daughter-in-law or what she does, wouldn't that make people laugh at you?"
Gu Jingcheng sneered: "Others laugh at you, what does it have to do with me?"
When Shen Li heard this and looked at Shan Daiyun's livid face, he secretly gave Gu Jingcheng a thumbs up. This man's words were quite vicious and he showed no mercy to Shan Daiyun at all.
Shan Daiyun was very angry, but he didn't give up. He continued, "Oh, what you said, if someone didn't know, they would think you just found someone to marry just to get your father's shares as soon as possible. After all, I am your father's legal wife and a member of the Gu family. You don't care about the reputation of the Gu family, but I can't just ignore it."
Gu Zhengrong frowned as he listened and said, "Okay, it's getting late. I'm tired. Let's all go back early."
It was obvious that these words were directed at Dan Daiyun. She looked unhappy, but had to smile along, and her voice softened, not as aggressive as before.
"Dad, I'm also thinking about the Gu family. After all, Jing Cheng is still young, and I'm afraid that he will be taken advantage of by someone with ulterior motives without even realizing it."
Halfway through his words, Shan Daiyun looked at Shen Li with a hint of contempt in his eyes, and continued: "We are not an ordinary family. Not everyone can come in. We still have to clarify some things."
The implication of these words was directed at Shen Li.
She is not a little white rabbit who accepts everything. Once shit is thrown on her head, there is no reason for her to endure it.
But before she could speak, Gu Jingcheng took the lead and said, "If you can enter, who else can't enter?"
When Gu Jingcheng said this, he didn't even look at her.
"You!" Shan Daiyun's face turned ashen and he looked extremely angry, his chest heaving violently.
"I am your elder after all, but you don't even have basic respect for me."
When Gu Qilian was around, she would still pretend. No matter how unpleasant Gu Jingcheng's words were, she would pretend to be magnanimous and say it was okay. Now, not only is she pretending, but she is also speaking in a pretentious manner.
Even though she was so crazy, Gu Jingcheng no longer paid any attention to her.
Shen Li was secretly happy, and looked at Gu Jingcheng with admiration.
She could see that Gu Jingcheng and this woman were not getting along, and as a "qualified wife", of course she had to stand on the same front with her husband.
Shen Li smiled and said, "Gu Jingcheng is not blind. He can't tell a person from a ghost. Don't worry about it. He can be quite harsh sometimes, but as an "elder", please don't get angry. Wrinkles are not good for your breasts."
Gu Zhengrong and Uncle Jin beside him looked at each other, their eyes full of disbelief, and the corners of their mouths unconsciously raised slightly.
If there weren't other people present, the two would probably have laughed out loud on the spot.
Gu Jingcheng was also surprised. His deep eyes moved slightly, and he seemed very satisfied with Shen Li's actions.
In front of everyone, he took her hand and said goodbye to Gu Zhengrong: "Grandpa, you should go to bed early."
Gu Zhengrong responded with a smile, and then the two of them left.
Even after getting in the car and driving a long way away, Shen Li's heart was still beating "bang bang bang".
She kept looking back at the back of the car and patted her chest with her little hands.
Gu Jingcheng couldn't help laughing when he saw how nervous she was.
"why are you laughing?"
Shen Li looked at him.
Gu Jingcheng suppressed his smile, opened a bottle of water and handed it to her.
"You were quite courageous and eloquent just now."
Shen Li felt a little embarrassed while drinking water. He was making fun of himself.
It would have been fine if he hadn't mentioned it, but when Shen Li was mentioned, he felt angry, and even his tone when talking to Gu Jingcheng was not very good.
"I was just talking about it. We were only supposed to have a meal with your grandfather. How come a stepmother suddenly showed up? I was so nervous that I was afraid that the truth would be revealed and ruin your business."
"Sorry, it was my mistake. I won't do it again."
"But then again, did I do okay? Fortunately, I was smart and it was definitely right to form a united front with you. They shouldn't have noticed anything, right?"
Shen Li's eyes were bright and he looked a little proud.
Gu Jingcheng looked at her expecting his answer, turned his head away from her, and nodded after a few seconds: "Yeah, not bad."
Shen Li was just like a kid who got a red flower in kindergarten. He let go of his anxious heart and leaned back in his chair contentedly.
Perhaps it was because he was too nervous before, now that he had relaxed, Shen Li fell asleep in a daze on the way to send her back.
The alley was too narrow and the car couldn't get in, so it stopped at the entrance of the alley.
Chen Lingdong parked the car, turned around and said softly to Gu Jingcheng, "Mr. Gu, we're here."
Gu Jingcheng glanced out the window and saw dim street lights and narrow alleys.
After a moment, he patted Shen Li gently, "Wake up."
Shen Li was sleepy, yawning and stretching.
"Sorry, I accidentally fell asleep."
After getting out of the car, Chen Lingdong handed two bags from the trunk to Shen Li, which contained the clothes she was going to wear today.
Shen Li took it and said, "Oh, yes, I'm still wearing the clothes I bought today. Why don't you wait for a few minutes and I'll go upstairs to change..."
"no need."
Gu Jingcheng interrupted her and returned to his usual cold and distant self.
Shen Li suddenly fell silent, thinking, yes, she had already worn it, so if she had to return it, she had to pay for it.
Seeing this, Chen Lingdong immediately explained: "Miss Shen, please help us. These should be prepared by us. If you don't mind, you can keep them."
How could Shen Li dislike such an expensive item? She waved her hands repeatedly: "No, no, thank you for sending me back. I'll go back first."
Shen Li walked a few steps towards home, then remembered that there was something he had forgotten to ask Gu Jingcheng.
When I turned around, the car had already driven away.
"Never mind, it should be fine."
As soon as she finished speaking, someone called her at the entrance of the alley: "Shen Li~"
