Chapter 96: Is There Someone You Like?

  Grandma Liu was rarely so warm and friendly to strangers, carefully asking, "How old are you? How did you get to know Xiao Yue?"

  The man opposite him replied quietly, "23, she is my elder sister-in-law."

  "Xi Cen!" Lin Yue'er hastily put down her breakfast and walked over a few steps. "What are you doing here?"

  She actually wanted to ask how he found this place?

  Gu Xi Cen raised her eyes and stared at her, but didn't make a sound.

  "Ah, 23, one year younger than Xiaoyue," Grandma Liu muttered to herself. Then she asked, "She's your elder sister-in-law, so you're that little rascal's younger brother?"

  Gu Xi Cen fell silent.

  Lin Yue'er was completely ignored, she stood on one side with a complicated mood.

  She wants to leave the Gu family and draw a clear line with them, but Gu Xizhen has helped her so much before, and it's not reasonable to ignore him like this. However, once she gets involved with him, it's hard for her to completely cut ties.

  "Grandma Liu narrowed her eyes and looked at the young man in front of her, looking left and right with satisfaction. With a kind smile, she asked, 'What's your name?'"

  "Gu Xi Cen."

  "Xiao Cen, why are you here to pick up Xiao Yue? I thought it was your brother coming?"

  Lin Yue'er paused, looking at Grandma Liu, and suddenly understood. Actually, Grandma Liu knew everything, but didn't ask, just didn't want her to be sad. Suddenly, her mood became heavy.

  "Big brother is too busy at work, so I came," Gu Xi Cen replied calmly.

  He is undoubtedly indirectly acknowledging the fact that he came to pick her up.

  He said so, not wanting her to be embarrassed, and even more unwilling for his brother to bear the title of this scoundrel.

  "Really?" Grandma Liu didn't expose him either, but smiled and looked at him, "Xiao Cen, what do you do?"

  Lin Yue'er knew Liu Nainai all too well, and the more she asked, the more she felt something was off. She quickly composed herself and interjected, "Liu Nainai, let's eat first, we can talk later."

  "No rush, I'll talk to Xiaocen first."

  “……”

  Lin Yue'er couldn't help it, she could only look at Xi Cen and knew he didn't like being close to people, especially strangers. So, she hoped he could be more tolerant, after all, the other person was an elderly man.

  Her gaze swept over her lightly and then calmly returned, "I'm working with a few friends overseas, we started a company."

  Lin Yueer was quite surprised, wasn't he supposed to dislike doing business?

  "Oh, what's going on? Business is tough now, won't you lose money?" Grandma Liu was also straightforward, asking directly, Lin Yue'er furrowed her brow tightly, afraid that Gu Xi would not consider the old lady's face.

  He thought for a moment and said, "Providing security services for a global chain company, including escorting security personnel and setting up a security defense system."

  Lin Yueer also raised curiosity, unexpectedly he would do security work, and from his appearance it really can't be seen.

  "Oh," Grandma Liu heard it vaguely, knowing that this young man was very capable, and couldn't help but praise him, "Wow, at the age of 23, he's already so capable! Not bad not bad. Oh right, is there a girl you like?"

  "Grandma Liu!" Lin Yue'er exclaimed, if she didn't stop her, who knows what Grandma Liu would ask next.

  "Grandma Liu said with some embarrassment, 'I was just chatting with Xiao Cen, Xiaoyue, your voice is too loud, it will scare the old folks.'"

  Lin Yue hurriedly apologized, "Sorry, sorry, Grandma Liu, I didn't mean it that way."

  Gu Xi Zhen raised her eyes and looked at her, silent for a few seconds, unsure if she didn't want to make things difficult for her or was seriously thinking about the question. He slowly opened his mouth, "No."

  Grandma Liu burst out laughing, "Oh my, no way, it's not good at all! You're so young and already prioritizing your career, what's the point of falling in love so early?! Grandma supports you, establish your career first, then get married!"

  Lin Yue rubbed her brow, when did Liu Nainai also start gossiping?

  Gu Xi Cen was still calm and collected, didn't say much, but answered every question Liu Nainai asked. Even Lin Yue Er discovered for the first time that he was very polite to the elderly!

  That's enough questions, Grandma Liu was satisfied and didn't see outsiders, "Little Cen, help me over there."

  Lin Yue'er took a look and quickly said, "Liu Nainai, I'll come."

  "No need for you, I'll let Xiao Cen help."

  Gu Xi Cen had no opinion, stood up and helped Liu Nainai up, Liu Nainai very intimately hooked her arm around his, "Little Cen, have you eaten breakfast? I and Xiao Yue haven't eaten yet, let's eat together."

  "I've eaten already." he said quietly.

  Lin Yue'er stood on one side, watching the two of them chat so naturally, she seemed like an outsider instead.

  Gu Xi Cen was on this side, she also didn't have the mood to eat anything anymore, and came over to quietly pull him, hinting that he should go outside to talk. Liu Nai Nai saw it in her eyes, and hurriedly said, "You two don't need to accompany me, go out and eat! Go quickly!"

  Grandma Liu was so enthusiastic that it made Lin Yue'er feel embarrassed. She always felt that Grandma Liu had misunderstood something, but she couldn't speak up to explain, fearing it would be even more embarrassing.

  The two walked out of the ward, Lin Yue'er turned around and looked at the man opposite her with a helpless gaze, "How did you find this place?"

  Gu Xi Chen shrugged and walked to the window, placing her hands on the windowsill, gazing outwards. "This isn't difficult."

  He told her with such a relaxed attitude that what was difficult for others did not apply to him. As long as he wanted, there was nothing he couldn't do. This kind of certainty was low-key and domineering.

  The voice beside him stopped, he turned around and asked, "Do you want to stay in the hospital forever?"

  He didn't fail to notice her suitcase or remain ignorant of her predicament, but he asked nothing, only inquiring about her next move.

  Lin Yueer seemed to have figured it out. In front of Gu Xi Cen, she was as transparent as a sheet of white paper, without any intention of hiding anything.

  She leaned against the wall, her voice somewhat weak, "First find a place to live, then find a job, for the sake of the baby, we need to save some money first."

  He quietly listened and said absent-mindedly, "Grandpa is back."

  "Grandpa Gu?" Lin Yue'er was surprised, "Isn't he supposed to come back at the end of the year? How did he come back so soon?"

  Gu Xi Cen turned around and faced her, "Hua Yi called him and told him about what happened between you and Big Brother. He rushed back as soon as he got off the plane this morning."

  Lin Yue'er let out a sorrowful cry in her heart, and her eyebrows furrowed.

  In the Gu's household, what she was most concerned about was Grandfather Gu. The reason why she left without saying goodbye was that she didn't want to face him, she was afraid that she would soften her heart. Moreover, she knew that she definitely would soften her heart.

  She weakly asked, "Does Old Man Gu know about me..."

  "I know." He raised his clear eyes and gazed at him straightly. "He told me I must bring you back."

  Lin Yue took a deep breath, "Xi Cen, you should be very clear about my decision."

  "He said that if you don't go back, he will kick your brother out of the company and not let him have a single cent." Gu Xi Cen calmly repeated her grandfather's words to her without missing a single word.
