Chapter 32
☆ Gossip is a Horrifying Thing
Gao Yulan hid for a long time before remembering Yin Ze might call back . Wouldn’t he worry if he didn’t know why she wouldn’t pick up .
Thinking of this she turned her phone back on .
As the phone turned on, Yin Ze called . “Are you okay?”
“Yeah, I’m very well . ”
“Where are you now?”
“At home . ”
“Did your phone have a problem?” Hearing that she was okay, Yin Ze could finally stop worrying, what was the weird noises that Niu Niu heard “Wuwuwu… . Dong…Pshhh…” It made him believe that she was in a struggle with somebody .
“No problem .
“No problem is what problem?” Yin Ze wasn’t quitting, she had nearly scared him to death .
“Sorry, I really have no problems . ” If she said she made the wrong call would she be okay? “I was wrong . ” Either way no matter what happened just admit it was a mistake to win first .
“What is wrong?”
“Ah, I still need to say what I was wrong about?” Gao Yulan really wanted to lie, she didn’t want to say something so shameful .
“What, you make me worried and you won’t tell what happened? Moreover, you owe me so much . After so long you still haven’t returned a ‘Mua’, you owe me a lot of ‘Mua’…”Yin Ze suddenly said: “Are you giving me a ‘Mua’ or are you giving Niu Niu one?” The sound that Niu Niu couldn’t describe was Mua, Mua… .
Gao Yulan sighed inside, how could this person be so smart?
“Yin Ze, you’re so annoying . ”
“Hmph, hmph . Don’t change the subject . You may be annoyed of me but you still owe me a ‘Mua, Mua’ you have to return back . ”
“You’re not only annoying now, you were always annoying . ” Gao Yulan remembered when she was on an impulse making the ‘Mua’ sound and her face turned red .
Yin Ze relaxed and laughed into his phone, his light, soft voice felt like feathers scratching her heart . He deliberately lowered his voice to tease her: “How annoying am I?”
Gao Yulan didn’t answer but yelled on the inside instead: Very annoying, very annoying, very annoying…
“Lan Lan, when you were in school was your language grade good, your irony is used so cleverly, I admire it so much . Hey, You said I was always annoying, does that mean early, early on you were already lusting after me?”
“Where?”
“You . ” Yin Ze’s roguish attitude made Gao Yulan want to laugh .
“Yin Ze . ”
“What?”
“Yin Ze . ” She didn’t know what she was doing, but wanted to call his name out .
“Yeah . ”
“Yin Ze . ”
“Hey . ”
“Yin Ze . ”
“Here”
“Yin Ze . ”
“Hmph . ”
“Yin Ze?”
“How long are you going to say it?”
“Yin Ze . ”
“Alright . ”
“Yin Ze . ”
“You miss me right?”
“Yin Ze . ” She called out once again, and Yin Ze made another sound of affirmation . The two, one lying down in A City and another lying down in bed in C City . Like two romantic fools they made the most boring thing in the world into something so sweet .
“My mom’s operation went smoothly, you don’t have to worry . ”
“Okay . ”

“I want to stay here to take care of her, so I’m staying here for two weeks . ”
“Okay, I’ll wait for you . ”
“I saw Zheng Tao and Qi Na today . ”
“Who are they?”
“My ex-boyfriend and my past best friend . ”
“What did you do, were you like a steam bun again?”
“No, I raised my head, straightened my back and walked past them with a clear mind . ”
“Stupid, I’ll help you get back at them when I have the chance . :
“Okay . ”
“Good night, you should go to sleep earlier, or it’ll be harder to go to the hospital in the morning . ”
“I still want to talk to you . ”
“Give me back what you owe me before you go to sleep . Hurry ‘Mua’ . ”
“What did you say we were again?”
“Mua is it not loud enough . ”
“Do you think you’re my boyfriend?”
The two knew what they were talking about, and didn’t feel anything about it .
“What kind of question is that? Hurry and come back and I’ll tell you if I am or am not your boyfriend . ”
“Mua, Mua…I’m done, I’m going to sleep . ”
Yin Ze was startled, he was trying to tease her and she didn’t spit at him but instead kissed him? After kissing him just hung up?
“Wait . ” Yin Ze pressed urgently: “After teasing me you’re just going to run away again? You bad woman, you’re so cruel . If you leave me like this I’m going to be lost in my thoughts and how would I sleep then?”
“Think, then think some more and then sleep, Mua, Good night . ” Gao Yulan firmly hung up and imagined Yin Ze grinding his teeth on the phone, and couldn’t help but smile . He always made her feel happier .

She entered the land of dreams with a smile .
The next day because Mama Gao was in the hospital she had to go from home to hospital a couple times .
Mama Gao had to stay in the hospital for five days, and some neighbors and friends visited . Papa Guo and Mama Guo had also come bringing fruit . During the time, they praised Gao Yulan for her filial piety and seeing a daughter in law like that they were in full support . Everybody was saying that Guo Qiuchen was a good kid, and the two families were blessed with good fortune, and they were a good pair and so on .
The more that it was said, the more it wouldn’t look so good if they said anything, Gao Yulan just looked down and didn’t say anything .
Papa Gao knew that they had come with good intentions and talked to them about somethings, but because they were old friends he couldn’t refute what they said instantly .
After the several days, Gao Yulan, Papa Gao, and Mama Gao could finally go home . One day in the evening the father , daughter pair were on the front porch chatting and finally the question sprang up . Gao Yulan took the chance to explain .
“Dad, I found a good guy . He doesn’t have a high education, he isn’t well of, furthermore he has a sister and niece to take care of . He has a cute puppy, he has a restaurant, and owes money to the bank . But I like him . ”
Papa Gao was stupefied: “Daughter, what is this, why did I hear nothing about this?”
“I also haven’t known it for long . ”
Papa Gao’s face turned black, all of a sudden he just found out there was somebody else she liked? “Then, have you decided?”
“I’ve decided, he treats me well . ” Gao Yulan bit her lip, thinking of Yin Ze’s daily greetings . Recalling those days, and how he made her happy she said: “Wait a little, I’ll bring him for you guys to meet him . ”
“Alright, alright . ” Papa Gao felt a little happy but also worried about his daughter . She finally had somebody she liked . But how was he going to explain to his old friend Old Guo . Little Guo seemed to have an interest, but his daughter already found somebody, how was he going to explain to his old friend .
“The person you like, compared to Little Guo, what is he like?”
“How are they compared to each other?” Gao Yulan thought for a moment: “Mr . Guo is very polite , but I don’t feel anything towards him . Yin Ze, he…” She stopped for a moment: “Yin Ze has suffered, made fun of, and a little of a rogue, to the older generation he wouldn’t be considered good . His weak points are very clear . However he likes me and I like him . Dad, when I was sad, he always has made me happy . ”
The words didn’t make sense, there wasn’t any logic behind it and was chaotic, but Papa Gao understood . This was like this own wife, she wasn’t pretty, liked to nag, and had a bad temper . But would he pass his life with her if he didn’t love her .
Papa Gao looked at his daughter and sighed on the inside before clenching his teeth and saying: “Lan Lan, the most important thing is that he treats you well and you like him . With what happened before, dad felt sad seeing you, but I couldn’t help you at the time . When you went off to A City to work, dad knew why you did it . Currently dad is standing next to a young woman in love, I’ll speak with Old Guo and finish it, dad also won’t be afraid . ”
Gao Yulan felt moved, she knew her father and how he tries not to offend anybody, for so long he had never showed the expression he had now . Now that it was clear, Uncle Guo didn’t know, and Mr . Guo also didn’t know that clearly . Her father after saying so much would be going back on his word . After listening obediently to everything, now that it was ending it had implicated her parents .
She hugged Papa Gao: “Dad, sorry . ”

“It’s dad’s fault, dad was to anxious, dad thought he was helping you find a good partner . ”
The father, daughter pair sat under the moonlight talking over everything and laughing .
The moonlight was bright, and Gao Yulan felt like her life was also brightening up .
The next week Papa Gao had to go to work, and Gao Yulan stayed at home to take care of Mama Gao . Papa Gao seemed to have run into something not so happy as he returned home with a frown . Gao Yulan suspected that it had something to do with her, but she couldn’t ask herself so she asked her mother to get some information .
Mama Gao told her Papa Gao and Papa Guo were in the middle of something and Papa Guo wasn’t happy . She said that Guo Qiuchen didn’t say much and the two families were in a deadlock .
Gao Yulan hearing this felt unwell and gave Guo Qiuchen a call . She asked him to help make it clear to the families, Guo Qiuchen didn’t know this was happening, and apologized before saying he would explain it to his dad carefully .
The time went fast and Mama Gao was healthy again, the old couple were fine and Gao Yulan was returning back to A City Today Guo Qiuchen was going back to C City to see his parents and then return back to A City, he took the initiative and said he would also take Gao Yulan back .
Having a free ride, instead of a crowded bus, her parents happily sent her to the door .
“Work is hard to find, and although we can take care of you, you should follow your goals . ” They knew that even though their daughter was a warm person, they knew she was also strong minded .
Gao Yulan nodded in agreement . Mama Gao said: “Keep an eye on Yin Ze to see if he’s really a good person, and when you have time bring him back for us to meet him . ” Gao Yulan nodded with a smile .
While talking Guo Qiuchen had also arrived . Stopping his car he got off to help Papa Gao put the bag into the car . Papa Gao thanked him and he embarrassedly said: “It’s my fault for making trouble for you, my dad doesn’t have the best temper, Uncle Gao please excuse him . ”
“No, no . We’ve been old friends for so long, why be so polite . ”
As they talked, a mother and her daughter came walking out, the younger one was a classmate of Gao Yulan’s and her mother was a co-worker of Papa Gao’s .
Her mother seeing them chuckled: “Yo, daughter and son in law going to A City . Old Gao you really are lucky, Little Guo is such a good kid, if it wasn’t because you were so fast snatching him away, I would also fight for him to be my son in law . ”
Gao Yulan’s old classmate looked away in embarrassment, seeing Gao Yulan she elbowed her mother to stop . Her mother chuckled and took her hand waving while taking her away and leaving the four standing there not knowing what to say .
Finally Guo Qiuchen said it was about time to go, and the four bid them goodbye .
In the car, Guo Qiuchen directly said sorry . Gao Yulan sighed, gossip really was a terrifying thing . She had experienced the same thing a couple years ago .
The original mood was bad, Gao Yulan felt gloomy . Halfway back she received a call from Yin Ze asking where she was, and she should go to “Food” first . He wanted to see her immediately .
Yin Ze’s voice consoled Gao Yulan, she really wanted to see him again .
