Chen Ran’s tears were about to fall when he heard this.
After all, they had grown up wearing open-crotch pants together. He accepted losing to his brother.
What did he mean by saying this now?
Now that he had a wife, he didn’t even like his brother anymore?
The more he thought about it, the more wronged he felt. He turned his head and saw Lin Nian looking at him, so he sniffed and tried to make up for it.
“This dish is too spicy…”
After saying that, he stared at the dish in front of him and took a big bite of the steamed bun.
Gu Zeyun looked down at the only remaining steamed bun, turned around, and put it in Lin Nian’s bowl.
Lin Nian smiled.
“You can keep it to eat. I have a small appetite, and I won’t be able to eat the dishes if I eat the steamed bun.”
“Try these dishes first, do they suit your taste?”
When she spoke, her eyes were bright and she looked at him so earnestly.
Gu Zeyun couldn’t resist at all. He reached out and picked up a chopstick and put it in his mouth. It was really delicious.
He smiled.
“Yes, it suits my taste very well.”
Lin Nian also smiled, and her already beautiful eyes curved up, turning from stars into crescents.
Gu Zeyun was stunned.
That familiar feeling came again.
But he was sure that he had never seen such vivid eyes. He had a photographic memory since he was a child, so he couldn’t be mistaken.
Why?
He felt a moment of panic and quickly lowered his head to eat seriously. Only then did he realize that Chen Ran had been silently eating and had almost finished all the mutton slices.
He was quite perceptive at this time?
Gu Zeyun was both angry and amused, so he quickly picked up vegetables for Lin Nian.
After the meal, Chen Ran touched his round belly and sincerely sighed.
“Lin Nian, Lin Nian, I’m impressed by you.”
“I didn’t expect you to be so good at cooking!”
“When you open a restaurant in the future, I’ll definitely visit every day when I’m on vacation.”
“If I don’t come one day, it means I’ve sacrificed. You and Yun-ge remember to sweep my grave.”
Gu Zeyun slapped him.
“You only know how to talk nonsense!”
“You say bad things about people all day long, how can you be so embarrassed?”
As soon as he finished speaking, Lin Nian stopped washing the dishes.
She looked up and slowly looked at Chen Ran.
“Really? You often say bad things about me?”
Chen Ran panicked.
It was okay for them to talk about it in private, but why did Yun-ge snitch!
How could he be embarrassed to admit it in front of the little girl?
Besides, he had also changed his mind about Lin Nian…
At worst, he just wouldn’t say it in the future!
Chen Ran looked at Lin Nian, then looked at Gu Zeyun, and finally made up his mind.
“I’m sorry, I did say a little before.”
“From now on, I admit that you are my sister-in-law!”
Tch.
Did she need him to admit whether she was a sister-in-law?
It was enough for Gu Zeyun to like her!
But after all, they were just in a cooperative relationship now, not a real couple, so there was no need to care about these things.
What’s more, Chen Ran in her previous life was also very good to her.
Lin Nian had long discovered that Chen Ran in this life didn’t like her, but she just didn’t care.
She didn’t expect him to compromise so quickly…
He really had no backbone.
Lin Nian smiled.
“Okay then!”
“Come and help your sister-in-law wash the dishes.”
“Wash them clean, let me see your sincerity in apologizing!”
After cleaning up, Lin Nian suggested that she take the bus back.
But Gu Zeyun didn’t agree.
He frowned and stared at her bandaged ankle.
“If you go back by yourself, how will you explain your foot injury?”
Lin Nian shrugged and said indifferently.
“Say I went to dig wild vegetables!”
“Then I stepped in a pit and fell.”
Anyway, that was indeed how she got the injury.
Fortunately, Aunt Zhao was on her side. She parted ways with her at the back door of her house and even helped her climb over the wall.
After she went back to her room and cleaned up, she turned around to settle accounts with Lin Jianguo.
Want to know how Aunt Zhao knew the secret?
She saw it when she passed by Shen Chengye’s house!
As long as there was no evidence and Aunt Zhao didn’t turn against her, Lin Jianguo couldn’t do anything to her.
When she was cooking just now, she had deliberately left some shepherd’s purse, preparing to put it in a basket and take it back to cover herself.
Lin Nian knew very well that Lin Jianguo would definitely use this as an excuse to make trouble when she went back later.
But it didn’t matter, she would resist to the end.
Thinking of this, she paused and decided to inform him in advance.
“Gu Zeyun, I have to tell you something.”
“No matter what rumors you hear, I didn’t do it.”
“I absolutely, absolutely, absolutely will not marry Shen Chengye!”
She said it very seriously, even saying “absolutely” three times in a row to express her determination.
Gu Zeyun was amused by her appearance.
It was strange, why was she telling him this?
He didn’t doubt their relationship.
What’s more…
It was just a collaboration.
Gu Zeyun lowered his head and repeated it in his heart again before looking at Lin Nian again.
She had been jumping around all day, and her braided pigtails were loose, and the strands of hair on her forehead had fallen down.
But for some reason, Gu Zeyun didn’t think she was sloppy. He even wanted to reach out and help her tidy up.
But the hand that reached out was still withdrawn at the end.
The most important thing for a soldier was reason, he told himself.
They had agreed to a fake marriage, so they must not break the rules.
“Okay, I know.”
Gu Zeyun put Lin Nian on the bus back to the village, then turned around and went back to the Gu family with Chen Ran.
As soon as he opened the door, a pillow was thrown out.
It was Old Master Gu, Gu Zheng.
He sat on the sofa, his hand pointing at Gu Zeyun trembling slightly, wishing he could stand up immediately and use family law on him.
“I was wondering why you suddenly changed your mind and were willing to have a good relationship!”
“It turned out that you were deliberately trying to anger me!”
“Quickly make it clear to that Lin Nian that our Gu family’s reputation is not something that anyone can enter!”
“Tell her that you are not suitable!”
Even Chen Ran was surprised by this.
He remembered what he had said in front of Xiao Lan and almost knelt down in guilt, but he still straightened his back and rushed up to explain.
“Grandpa Gu, don’t be angry…”
“Lin Nian isn’t that bad!”
“When I said she was different from what I heard, I was talking about her personality!”
“She’s more cheerful than the average girl, and that’s not a bad thing!”
“Our Gu family…”
Before he could finish speaking, Old Master Gu shouted.
“Shut up!”
“Chen Ran, this is not your business today, you can leave first.”
“I want to teach this brat a lesson!”
Chen Ran was completely stunned.
He turned his head and noticed that Xiao Lan, who was standing behind Gu Zheng, was shaking her head slightly at him, signaling him not to say anything more.
Xiao Lan also felt bitter in her heart.
When she was working at the hospital today, she suddenly heard her colleagues congratulating her, and only then did she know how much Gu Zeyun valued that blind date.
Xiao Ze, who was usually cold to everyone, would be so nervous that he would carry the little girl to the hospital and turn pale because of a small injury.
She had been young too, so how could she not know?
He was just smitten.
Xiao Lan was originally very happy, thinking that her son was finally going to start a family, and the burden on her shoulders could be eased.
But she never expected that when she excitedly went home to share the news with the old man, she would be scolded.
Old Master Gu was heartbroken.
“You, you have all been deceived by that little girl!”
