Chapter 15: That Spoiled Young Master Is Not Worthy of My Wife

Translator: 549690339

Gu Zhaohan, A University's most handsome guy, a top medical student, and the "Ice Prince" in the eyes of countless girls, was also her—rumored boyfriend. Of course, it was a misunderstanding; he'd used her as a shield against the persistent Kim Feier. However, he was unaware of his relationship with his uncle, Gu Qichen. Their meeting under these circumstances was bound to be awkward.

Xia Yangyang followed her grandfather and Gu Qichen downstairs, encountering Xia Liangdong and Liu Ruyan just entering the house. Xia Liangdong quickly shook hands with the elder Gu, saying, "Director Gu, I'm honored by your invitation."

Gu Shengyuan chuckled, "Mr. Xia, please. Their children are married; we're family now."

Xia Liangdong replied, "It's my daughter's good fortune to marry Young Master Qi Chen."

Gu Shengyuan responded, "I think it's Ah Chen's good fortune. Yangyang is kind and adorable, all thanks to your upbringing."

After pleasantries, they moved to the dining room, where a hearty meal awaited. After everyone was seated, Gu Mingzhu and Gu Zhaohan entered. Gu Mingzhu introduced everyone, and Gu Zhaohan greeted them politely, though his aloofness was palpable. Rumors of his overseas residence, complicated family background, and aversion to socializing seemed true.

Finally, Gu Mingzhu introduced Xia Yangyang: "This is your uncle's wife, your little aunt, Xia Yangyang."

Gu Zhaohan's gaze fell on Xia Yangyang. News of their connection had already spread that afternoon. He was genuinely surprised to learn she was married—and to his uncle. His silence made Xia Yangyang uncomfortable. She stood, saying, "Hi, we meet again."

Gu Zhaohan replied flatly, "Hello," then sat.

The elder Gu said, "The girl you brought to my birthday was Yangyang, wasn't it? I thought you two were familiar."

Gu Zhaohan responded indifferently, "We're not close, Grandfather. You misunderstood."

No one expected his confrontation. Liu Ruyan tactfully intervened, "Our Yangyang is younger than Young Master Han. Calling her 'Little Aunt' would be difficult. As schoolmates, a more casual interaction would be natural."

The elder Gu laughed, "He's just shy. Living together, he'll get used to it."

Xia Yangyang felt acutely uncomfortable throughout the meal. Xia Weiwei, feigning innocence, asked, "Brother-in-law, how did you meet my sister? You two married four months ago, but wasn't Haotian her boyfriend then?"

Silence fell. Liu Ruyan glared at Xia Weiwei, "What nonsense?"

Xia Weiwei feigned understanding, "I'm sorry, did I say something wrong?"

Both the grandfather and Gu Mingzhu looked doubtful. If Xia Weiwei's statement was true, Xia Yangyang had been two-timing.

However, Gu Qichen calmly stated, "You mean Lu Haotian? Four months ago, I stole Yangyang from him. That playboy isn't good enough for my wife."

His serene tone belied the declaration: it wasn't Xia Yangyang who was two-timing, but Gu Qichen who stole Lu Haotian's girlfriend.
