Finished! After rebirth, the prince secretly held my hand
Chapter 24: Adoptive Daughter
Gu Chusheng looked serious and didn't seem to be joking.
"Now what?"
Ji Xiaoxiao had a pitiful expression on her face, her eyes red, as if she was about to cry in the next second.
Very cute.
Gu Chusheng couldn't help it in the end. He chuckled and pinched her face. After hesitating for a while, he took his hand back.
"Wait until you grow up?" Gu Chusheng gave her advice.
"I will graduate in a year. If your health improves within a year, and you marry someone else, he won't be able to wait for me..."
Ji Xiaoxiao became really anxious as she spoke.
Last night, grandma was clearly trying to match her up with Gu Chusheng, why did she suddenly change her mind?
Could it be Gu Shanshan?
Or is Gu Chusheng lying!
Obviously the latter is more likely, Gu Shanshan should not know her at this time.
After knowing the truth, Ji Xiaoxiao shook off Gu Chusheng's hand and said, "If you don't want to marry me, just reject me directly. There's no need to use grandma as a shield."
"As long as you ask me to stop bothering you, I promise...I promise..."
Ji Xiaoxiao put three fingers on her forehead and acted pretentiously.
Even if he said he didn't want to marry her, she would pester him until he married her.
Gu Chusheng had a blank expression on his face, but he was amused by her cute look.
The big hand pinched the three fingers she pressed against her forehead and continued walking.
The air in the back garden is fresher than that in the front yard. The breeze brings a faint fragrance mixed with the smell of soil, making the moment more peaceful.
The two walked side by side on the stone road, one in a tailor-made black suit, the other in a strapless burgundy dress. From the back, they looked like a couple about to enter the marriage hall.
Gu Shanshan followed not far away.
This beautiful and harmonious picture became a thorn in her eyes and a thorn in her flesh.
My jealous heart clenched tightly and I followed him.
Ji Xiaoxiao cherished every minute and second of her peaceful life, but suddenly a weak voice from behind her broke the peace.
Gu Shanshan pinched her throat and called out in a delicate and sweet voice,
"elder brother."
The two turned around when they heard the sound.
Gu Shanshan's eyes fell on the two people's interlocked hands. She clenched her back teeth in anger and rubbed them left and right without making any sound, making a sharp, piercing sound.
However, she quickly regained her delicate appearance.
"Brother, grandma asked you to take me back. There are too many people in the hall and I feel dizzy. I was out for too long today. Uncle Wang asked me to go back and rest."
Uncle Wang is the private doctor hired by the Gu family to take care of Gu Shanshan.
Gu Shanshan had been in poor health since childhood, just like a baby who died at birth, which made the Gu family even more distressed.
She didn't even look at Ji Xiaoxiao, and looked down on her from the bottom of her heart.
Gu Chusheng pinched Ji Xiaoxiao's fingers, feeling embarrassed.
He couldn't even promise her a simple walk.
Ji Xiaoxiao let go of her hand and smiled, "Go ahead. My grandma brought me to the back garden before. I'm familiar with it."
His palms felt empty, and Gu Chusheng's heart sank.
While hesitating, he heard Gu Shanshan cover her mouth with a blue handkerchief, cough twice, and touch her arm with her hand to feel the goose bumps that didn't exist at all.
"Wait for me to come back soon."
Ji Xiaoxiao knew that he would not come back, and Gu Shanshan would try every means to make Gu Chusheng stay.
Ji Xiaoxiao nodded and agreed, "Okay."
The footsteps became farther and farther away, and the figure gradually turned into a halo until it disappeared. Ji Xiaoxiao withdrew her gaze and lost interest in taking a walk.
Gu Shanshan weakly covered her mouth and hid in Gu Chusheng's arms, then left under everyone's gaze.
She is short and thin.
The whole person exudes a weird morbidity.
"She is really Miss Gu, otherwise who would have Master Gu personally escort her."
"Is that the one who just played the piano? His temperament and figure are quite different. I don't think he is similar."
"What do you know? She changed her clothes and likes to keep a low profile. Only Grandma Gu can let Miss Gu play the piano in person to congratulate her."
Gu Shanshan's face turned red and green as she listened to such discussions.
She can also play the piano, but she has no talent in this area. After studying for a few years when she was young, her teacher told Gu's mother not to force the child too much, as talent cannot be forced.
She was young at that time, with lofty ambitions. Apart from eating, drinking and having fun, she had no interest in music, chess, calligraphy or painting.
Mother Gu also dotes on her, so it's good for her to enjoy this life. No one dares to say that she is a young lady who only knows how to spend money.
Ji Xiaoxiao's skirt was inconvenient, so she went out directly through the small door in the back garden, and her car happened to be outside.
As soon as I got in the car, I saw Ji Yu sleeping soundly.
Ji Xiaoxiao patted his thigh, "Why did you fall asleep here? Isn't there a rest room?"
Ji Yu rubbed his eyes and suddenly looked out the window alertly. After making sure that no one else was around, he spoke.
"Sister, did you drink the glass of water that Master Gu brought in?"
Ji Xiaoxiao shook her head.
Ji Yu exhaled and patted his chest, "That's good, that's good..."
"I was supposed to bring you some water, but I ran into Gu Chusheng at the door, and he took over my job."
"Sister, you are wearing so beautiful clothes today. Any man who sees you would have evil thoughts. I was afraid that he would drug you, but he was stopped by his bodyguards."
Gu Chusheng gave her medicine and she got better.
This way she can get the matter done right away and save a lot of trouble.
Ji Xiaoxiao muttered to herself.
Seeing the regretful expression on his elder sister's face, Ji Yu was a little confused.
"Sister, you must not fall in love with Master Gu! There is no good person in his family. Dad agrees that you can marry him, but I don't agree."
Ever since the last time Gu Chusheng bullied his sister at the doorstep, Ji Yu has had no good feelings towards Gu Chusheng at all.
Ji Xiaoxiao avoided the question and took out a green bank card from her bag.
"Prepare five million in cash in the next few days, and also a loan contract. The interest rate is slightly higher than that of the market bank."
"Wu Moyan asked me to borrow money." Ji Xiaoxiao snorted, "It's not enough to make a small amount of money from him. I have to make it all back and let him experience the taste of despair."
Ji Yu took the bank card with some doubt, and he couldn't understand what Ji Xiaoxiao was muttering.
Anyway, just hate Wu Moyan!
After seeing Gu Shanshan off, Gu Chusheng turned around and left. No matter how many tricks Gu Shanshan tried to use, he remained indifferent.
Gu Shanshan could only stand at the gate, smelling the pungent exhaust fumes from the cars and stamping her feet in anger.
I hurried back to the back garden and found that the person was gone.
No one could be found in the Gu family. When they saw Ji Baihao was still there, they asked him and he said that he had already returned home.
Gu Chusheng went upstairs in silence.
Seeing her grandson looking depressed, Liu Aixiu asked, "Didn't I ask you to accompany Xiaoxiao? Why did you come back so soon?"
Gu Chusheng keenly grasped the meaning of Liu Aixiu's words.
His brows were slightly furrowed, his face looked grim, "Didn't you ask me to send Gu Shanshan back?"
"She has a driver to pick her up, why should I ask you to take her? Besides, you are not biological children after all. When Xiaoxiao marries you, you should keep some distance. Don't always think about Gu Shanshan's illness. The doctors say it's congenital and can't be cured."
