Chapter 31 His Younger Brother

  As she walked down the stairs, she first saw Gu Wangchuan's back, and then her gaze fell on the man standing opposite him. Her footsteps stopped abruptly.

  Is this person... the one I met in the garden just now?!

  Gu Xi Zhen slightly raised her eyes, her gaze shifted towards the stairs, and when she saw Lin Yue Er, a smile rose to her lips...

  Lin Yue let out a sharp cry and took in a mouthful of cold air.

  He heard it!

  He must have just heard her scold Gu Wangchuan for being a bastard!

  What's going on now? Are you reporting him?

  Lin Yueer could even imagine the way Gu Wangchuan would punish her, and instinctively covered her neck with both hands, thinking of the pain there, her feet seemed to have taken root on the spot, as if she was about to turn around and run.

  Gu Xi Cen's smile deepened at the corner of her lips, and a pair of light brown eyes also narrowed slightly.

  "Big Little Grandma, why don't you come down?" Flower Aunt walked out of the kitchen with a plate of fish and said with a smile, "Come quickly to eat dinner!"

  Hearing the voice of Hua Yi, Gu Wangchuan turned around and saw Lin Yue'er, he couldn't help but frown, "What are you standing there for? The Gu family doesn't need a stupid security guard!"

  Although he opened his mouth and didn't say anything pleasant, especially to her, however, Lin Yue'er's eyes lit up, without any warning signs of an outburst, which proved that he didn't know he had scolded him!

  Her heart sank slightly, she lowered her head and murmured "oh", avoiding the gaze of the two people, and walked into the dining room.

  "Is she... your sister-in-law?" Gu Xi Cen withdrew her gaze and asked softly with a faint smile.

  Although hearing his brother call this woman "sister-in-law" made Gu Wangchuan feel uncomfortable, he still responded in a low voice, "Yes, she is the woman that grandfather insisted on forcing me to marry." He picked up the cup in his hand and took a sip of red wine.

  Whether it was due to the pressure from his grandfather at that time or some regret for his impulsiveness, in short, whenever he mentioned this woman, he would feel extremely annoyed!

  "Hehe," Gu Xi Cen shook her head and smiled wryly, looking at him sideways, "When competing with Grandpa, you have to be prepared to lose."

  "Cut it out," Gu Wangchuan raised an eyebrow, "it's not like I was fighting him, I just went along with him." He waved his hand impatiently, "Enough, let's not talk about this anymore. Come and eat instead."

  "Uh-huh."

  Two people walked into the dining room, Lin Yueer was helping to set the tableware, Hua Yi smiled and said, "Big young lady, we'll do this. Oh right, look at my memory, I haven't introduced Second Young Master to you yet!"

  Second Young Master...

  Lin Yue'er vaguely remembered that Hua Yi had mentioned earlier that the second young master of the Gu family would be returning from France. So, he was...

  She raised her eyes, and her gaze suddenly collided with Gu Xi Chen's pale-colored eyes. The bottom of his eyes rippled with a hint of mystery, like a glimpse into the depths of a dark green spring, or a vast expanse of snow that seemed to stretch on forever.

  Lin Yue was stunned for a moment, and somewhat forgot how to react.

  He is a very elegant and handsome man, without the strong and overbearing momentum of Guan Zhong, but it makes people involuntarily want to gaze at him for a few more seconds. Perhaps it's because of that subtle and calm aura on his body, with an air of lightness and ease, as if nothing is taken seriously... The more so, the more one wants to explore something from him.

  He stood in front of Lin Yueer, smiled lightly at her and said, "Sister-in-law, I am Gu Xi Cen."

  Lin Yue'er blinked her eyes, and it was only then that her brain finally received the message.

  It turned out that this man who appeared in the garden was actually the second young master of the Gu family, Gu Wangchuan's younger brother, and her nominal uncle.
