4670 Never Too Late to Love (77)
Chu He was just about to respond to this when Gu Linxi gently nudged her arm and lowered his voice. “Mom, can you be more reserved? Don’t be so blatant in urging them to have a child.”
With Gu Linxi’s reminder, the woman retracted her words and quickly echoed, “No hurry, no hurry. This matter can’t be rushed.”
Bai Sheng lowered her head with a scarlet face, not knowing what to say.
The scene was in a deadlock. The atmosphere was slightly awkward.
!!Seeing how shy Bai Sheng was, Chu He felt a little embarrassed. She smiled stiffly at Gu Linxi and reminded him, “Perhaps, we should make a move?”
“You just got here and you’re leaving?”
Chu He fell silent. She had nothing to say to this child.
Firstly, she had pretended to be Gu Chengze’s “aunt” and was already feeling a little guilty. Furthermore, she would have to meet Bai Sheng as her “mother-in-law” sooner or later. If she was seen through, it would be very awkward.
This was what Chu He was concerned about.
Although, she recognized now that this was Bai Sheng, the childhood sweetheart of Gu Chengze. The girl had lost her parents at such a young age and was quite pitiful. She wondered how Bai Sheng had gotten by in the past ten years.
But now was not the time to reminisce. There would be many opportunities in the future.
Since she had already figured out Bai Sheng’s identity and that Gu Chengze’s flash marriage was not with a woman of unknown background, which was the most pressing matter on hand, she was relieved.
“We’re just here to visit. Since Chengze isn’t at home, we should be on our way!” Chu He stood up and reached out to grab Gu Linxi’s ear.
The young man hissed in pain. He was already a grown man in his twenties, yet she grabbed his ear all the time. Did she not care that she was embarrassing him!
“Mom…”
“Let’s go!”
When Bai Sheng saw them getting onto their feet, she also hurriedly stood up and said, “Are you leaving just like that? You’ve only been here for a short while!”
“We won’t impose on you, hehe!”
Bai Sheng felt somewhat uneasy. “But I… haven’t hosted you properly!”
“Aiya, there will be plenty of opportunities in the future!” As Chu He spoke, she turned to Gu Linxi. “Linxi, let’s go!”
Bai Sheng felt rather guilty. She could only think that they were leaving in a hurry because she was unable to entertain them. However, she did not know how to make them stay.
Bai Sheng was usually quiet given that she did not know how to interact with her relatives and friends. She mostly stayed in her room. Therefore, she felt a little lost facing two guests.
However, she was too embarrassed to ask them to stay and sent them off at the elevator. Chu He repeatedly asked her to go home, but Bai Sheng refused. It was not until they entered the elevator and the door shut behind them that she finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Nerve wrecking.
Bai Sheng returned to the house and hesitated for a moment before calling Gu Chengze, “Hello?”
“Eh? What’s up?”
“Hubby, two people came by to our house just then. One is your aunt, and the other is your friend?”
“Aunt?” Gu Chengze’s eyes twitched for a moment. “Are they still here?”
Since when had he have an aunt? And even if he did, they were not close.
The main lineage and the distal branches of the Gu Family each had their own connections and were not close.
He didn’t even remember what his aunt looked like.
“Hubby, you and your aunt resemble each other.” Bai Sheng described, “Especially her eyes. Although she was wearing a mask, her eyes were too similar to yours.”
