Chapter 114: It's My Own Choice

Some time ago, she had been busy with work, so she hadn't met Gu Yan either, if it wasn't for the other party finding this place today, she would have forgotten about Gu Yan.

His tall figure stopped in place at the moment when he was about to approach Xia Lichen.

"You're married to him, is it true?"

Although it wasn't that she didn't expect these results, if it weren't for the teenager who suddenly confessed his heart to her, she also hoped that they would always be like back then.

Xia Lichen slowly got up from the sofa, and Sister-in-law Liu stood behind her and looked at these even more confused.

It stands to reason that the third young man has a good relationship with the second young man, and his wife is now his sister-in-law, but why did he question his wife so angrily?

"Originally, I wanted to pick a time, but Jing Rui said that there would be an engagement banquet next week, so I didn't have time to tell you that I wanted to wait for that ......."

"Jingrui? Why don't I know when the two of you became so close? ”

Gu Yan's emotions began to get a little out of control, and he approached Xia Lichen step by step, but fortunately, he was stopped by Sister-in-law Liu.

"What's the matter with the third young master, why don't you wait for me to notify the second young master to come back? Madame is not in good health, don't scare her! ”

Although Sister-in-law Liu didn't know anything, she still remembered what Gu Jingrui told her before.

"Need to get him back? You kept telling me that you couldn't forget your first boyfriend, but now, you suddenly turned your head to be with my second brother, don't you think it's too ridiculous Xia Lichen? ”

The almost hysterical questioning made Xia Lichen's mind blank, and he didn't even have the strength to explain.

"This is my own choice, you and I both have our own lives, who am I with, why do I need to tell you Gu Yan?"

She felt a little unsteady on her feet, as if she was weak for her marriage with Gu Jingrui, which can be called absurd.

Obviously, Xia Lichen's words made Gu Jingrui's heart even more hurt.

Fortunately, at this time, Gu Jingrui also hurried back.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw Xia Lichen, who was standing behind Sister-in-law Liu, who was a little shaky, and Gu Yan, who looked extremely sad and angry.

"Sister-in-law Liu, you help Li Chen into the house first."

"Okay."

Xia Lichen didn't know what happened next, because at this time, Sister-in-law Liu had already sent her back to the room.

It's just that before leaving, Gu Yan's eyes with endless complaints made her unable to disperse for a long time.

"Do you think I'm a bad woman, sister-in-law Liu?"

At this time, only Sister-in-law Liu accompanied her in the house, even if she didn't know the situation at first, but after hearing that, she thought that the other party should probably know something.

But Sister-in-law Liu just shook her head, and then reached out to help her rub her shoulder.

"Madam, don't think too much, no one will say that you are not good, want to come...... It was the three young people who moved their minds that shouldn't be moved. ”

This family was originally a mess, she was saying that the relationship between the three young masters and their young masters was good, but it was only relative to the relationship between the young master and the eldest young master.

And the young master likes Madame so much, although Madame always has a faint expression, but she can see that there is always a trace of sadness in her eyes.

This is also the reason why the young master does not let his wife go to the company and let her take care of her at home.

"But after all, I still hurt such a simple person, even my marriage with Gu Jingrui, I can't admit whether I really like him or not."

It took almost half an hour for Gu Jingrui to come up, and seeing this, Sister-in-law Liu left the room with interest, leaving the space for the two of them.

"My father still knew about it, but to my surprise, he didn't say anything, but Gu Yan was outside the door at the time, so he heard it too."

Gu Jingrui's expression was a little evasive, as if he was guilty of not protecting Xia Lichen well.

"Actually, he didn't say anything serious today, and I won't blame him or anything, after all, even I will find it funny when I think about it."

She tilted her head and chuckled twice, but she didn't see any hint of happiness.

But in this way, Gu Jingrui felt more sorry for her, and knew that she was referring to their current marriage.

"Don't put too much pressure on yourself, I also said, I'll wait until the day you really like me."

There are some things that I am most afraid of being questioned by others, especially Xia Lichen, who is now more sensitive.

There was a slight tremor in her heart, she looked up at Gu Jingrui in front of her, thinking that one night, she had taken the initiative to hug each other, but at that time, she was just in a mood of sympathy.

"Thank you, Gu Jingrui."

A thousand words converged into only this one sentence in the end.

He smiled and nodded, but then his gaze sank.

"There's something I don't really want to tell you, but my father wants to ...... before we get married. See you. ”

"No problem, this is a normal process, and I have thought about this issue before, but I have never mentioned it."

Xia Lichen is not an unintentional person, after all, he has already done so much for himself, so just meeting his parents, in fact, it is nothing.

However, it was still early, and Gu Jingrui also returned home early after learning that Gu Yan had come to the villa without authorization.

Since he was going to see his parents, Xia Lichen didn't want to continue to drag it out, but suggested that it would be better to go now.

Although Gu Jingrui was worried at first that Xia Lichen might not be able to cope with it, when she saw her go to a hot bath and asked Mother Liu to prepare clothes for her, she gradually relaxed her heart.

"Don't be too nervous for a while, my father may be very strict with you at first, but he is still very easy to get along with."

After sitting in the car, looking at him with a new look in front of him, Gu Jingrui couldn't help but comfort him.

Is it easy to get along with? Thinking of that, he ignored Gu Yan since he was a child and threw him alone in the big house, and even physically beat him many times.

To be honest, she was a little more curious about the man.

After about half an hour, the car drove to the Chen family's house, which she was completely unfamiliar with.

Needless to say, just looking at the area that did not belong to the Chen family's old mansion, as well as the decoration of the appearance, Xia Lichen was very amazed.

"I heard Sister-in-law Liu say that you moved out when you became an adult, so who usually lives here?"

Seeing Gu Jingrui's hand stretched out towards her, she naturally stepped forward to hold it, and then he took her inside.

"I know my father lives alone, but there are many servants here to take care of him."

It turned out that his eldest brother Gu Yanrui didn't live here, and after getting such an answer, Xia Lichen was once again curious about what the rumored middle-aged man with a bad temper was like.

However, after entering the house, the maid first made a gesture to Xia Lichen and asked her to go inside.

"Don't worry, I'll be here waiting for you to come out."

It seems that the other party is meeting himself alone earlier.

When she came to this conclusion, she gradually relented and followed the servant upstairs.

To say that there are so many servants in this family, why does the overall feeling for her be so cold? I don't know if it's her psychological effect.

It seemed to be an office room, but just by looking at the surrounding layout, I knew who the middle-aged man in the wheelchair was.

He doesn't look old, at least that face is okay, but maybe because of illness, his hair is a lot grayer.

But even if he was not in good health, the majesty in those dark pupils was enough to make Xia Lichen's heart skip a beat.

"You're Jing's future wife?"

Before Xia Lichen could react, the other party asked first.

"Yes, hello uncle, my name is Xia Lichen."

Although it is not clear what he thinks of himself, Xia Lichen still hopes that she can do better and not let the other party think that Gu Jingrui is looking for a bad wife.

But the man was silent for a while, as if he was looking at Xia Lichen carefully.

"I didn't even know that Ah Jing would like a woman like you."

With a hint of contempt in this tone, Xia Lichen felt a little uncomfortable, knowing that he was used to being high, so it was normal to look down on an ordinary daughter-in-law like himself.

"But since he likes it, let him go, and you can come over more."

She lowered her head, listened to the few faint coughs, and walked up obediently without bothering with the other party.

"This is his mother's favorite bracelet when she was alive, and now it's yours."

Before Xia Lichen could react, a delicate box was handed over.

"Uncle, isn't this okay?"

Although she didn't know what it was, she didn't expect that it was just the first time they met, and the other party would give her something.

"There's nothing bad about it, when you have a wedding, you'll be his real wife."

After that, the man coughed impatiently twice, and Xia Lichen hurriedly took it when he saw this.

Later, the maid came in and took her out, and Gu Jingrui's father directly turned the wheelchair over.

"Then uncle, I won't bother you yet."

When she saw the people downstairs waiting for her with a worried face, Xia Lichen felt an indescribable peace of mind in her heart.

"It came out so soon, I thought it was ......"

"Why do you think so? He's going to do it to me? ”

She couldn't help but smile, and when the two of them finally returned to the car together, she handed the box to each other.

"This is a bracelet that your father gave me and said was your mother's favorite bracelet to wear."

For Xia Lichen, she still couldn't accept this bracelet calmly, so she felt that it was better to give it to Gu Jingrui.

But who knows, Gu Jingrui was also surprised, but he still took it easily.

"Bracelets? How I don't remember ......"

When the packing brother slowly opened it, after seeing the contents clearly, he was directly stunned.

"What's wrong with you?"

Saying that, Xia Lichen also looked at it curiously.

I saw that in the delicate jewelry box, there was a crystal bracelet with a crystal body, not the jade texture she just thought.

"It's so beautiful, if you don't look closely, you'll think it's made of diamonds."

It turns out that the whole body of this bracelet is deliberately polished into many faces, so it looks shiny under the sunlight.

"I didn't expect it to be kept by my father, I thought it was lost a long time ago?"
