After getting out of the car, Gu Nianxi was almost dragged to the door of his house by He Jianchen. The two went up the steps, and Gu Nianxi pulled him back.
"Wait, wait!"
He Jianchen stopped and said to her with a smile: "Don't be afraid, my family will not eat you."
"Then have you told them about my situation?"
"Well..." He Jianchen pretended to think for a while, "Did you tell me? I forgot."
"..." Gu Nianxi hit him angrily, "You can forget such an important thing!"
Seeing her nervous face turning red, He Jianchen secretly laughed, "Don't think so much, just treat it as if you just came here to have hot pot today."
Gu Nianxi's face was full of sadness, she gagged and said, "It's weird if you can eat it."
He Jianchen dragged Gu Nianxi into the house.
As soon as the two entered the door, an elderly aunt was coming towards them. When she saw the two of them, she quickly stopped.
"Hey, I'm back."
Gu Nianxi thought she was He Jianchen's mother and hurriedly said hello.
"Hello, aunt."
Her serious greeting made He Jianchen stunned. He guessed that she had probably recognized the wrong person, so he smiled and held her hand.
"This is Ma Xu."
"Ah?" Gu Nianxi stood there and laughed awkwardly, "Then...it's not wrong to call Auntie."
"That's right." Xu's mother didn't want to embarrass the girl and answered quickly, "You can call me whatever you want. Come in quickly. My wife heard a noise in the yard and asked me to come and take a look. What a coincidence that the doctor is back."
"Well, is mom ready?"
"It's all ready. Let's go to the restaurant quickly."
Passing by Xu's mother, Gu Nianxi nodded politely to her, and He Jianchen led her inside.
Xu Ma stood at the door and kept looking at Gu Nianxi. The more she looked at her, the more she liked her.
"Yes, my wife is relieved now."
As the two passed by the living room, the aroma of hot pot hit their nostrils. He Jianchen turned around and said with a proud face, "How about it? You can smell the aroma."
"Yeah." Gu Nianxi nodded vigorously. To be honest, she was really hungry.
He Jianchen took off his coat and placed it on the sofa, then took Gu Nianxi's bag and put it together.
Gu Nianxi felt a little hesitant when she saw them coming in and not seeing his family coming out to greet them.
Could it be that her parents knew about her situation and didn't welcome her arrival?
Gu Nianxi was uneasy and held He Jianchen's hand tightly, which was covered in sweat.
"Otherwise...I'd better go back."
"Why?"
Gu Nianxi quickly said: "I'm afraid your family won't like me, and I don't want you to be caught in the middle."
"How could it be?" He Jianchen knocked on her forehead, "Are you dizzy from hunger? Let me tell you, my mother is very picky, but she likes beautiful women the most. If she likes you, she will definitely feel pain.
you."
"Then...what if your mother has very high standards and thinks I'm not beautiful?"
"Well, it's possible. My mother rarely praises people for their good looks. The only person she ever praised was a college student she met in a coffee shop. A while ago, I told her on the phone that I was in love, and she even blamed me.
It was too late to fall in love. If I had followed her advice and worked in a coffee shop, she would have introduced me to many girlfriends."
He seemed to feel a little pity for what he said. Gu Nianxi gave him a polite smile, "That's such a big loss. Maybe your child will be in your arms."
He Jianchen laughed and held him in her arms to coax her, "Isn't that just to wait for you?"
"Well, that's my fault."
The two of them were leaning away when a man rushed out of the restaurant in front of them, and she quickly broke away from He Jianchen's arms.
"Mother Xu! Is someone here? Why haven't you-"
When the woman who ran out saw them, she was stunned on the spot. At the same time, Gu Nianxi was also stunned when she saw her.
The two pointed at each other and screamed.
"Nian Nian!"
"Sister Man!?"
Jian Manyu and Gu Nianxi looked at each other, their jaws almost dropped in shock. Jian Manyu ran over excitedly and pushed He Jianchen away who was in the way.
"Nian Nian! I'm so happy! Why are you here!"
"Sister Man! Why are you still so young and beautiful!"
The two women, who had not seen each other for many years, hugged each other excitedly and jumped up and down. Jian Manyu held up Gu Nianxi's face and looked at it carefully, feeling heartbroken.
"I heard, Yiduo said you were in a car accident. Why were you so careless? Have you recovered now?" Jian Manyu asked with concern. Suddenly seeing her arm hanging, she exclaimed, "Oh! What happened to the hand?"
Already?"
Gu Nianxi quickly replied, "It's okay. I had an operation to remove the internal fixation last month and I'm almost healed."
"It's okay, then I'll be relieved." Jian Manyu smiled happily, suddenly thinking of something, she looked at Gu Nianxi and then at He Jianchen.
"Nian Nian, did you follow him?"
After she said this, Gu Nianxi realized why Sister Man was at the He family?
She looked at He Jianchen and saw that he had his hands folded in front of his chest, looking like he was watching a good show.
Gu Nianxi was full of doubts and asked with a smile, "It can't be such a coincidence. You are He Jianchen's sister, right?"
"Sister?" He Jianchen.
"Sister?" Jian Man said.
Her words made Jian Manyu extremely happy. Her eyelashes were so curved that her big eyes narrowed into slits with laughter, "Hahaha, in Nian Nian's mind, is Sister Man so young? Hahahaha."
He Jianchen rolled his eyes speechlessly.
"Hey, I wonder if you have bad eyesight. Please take a closer look at the relationship between the two of us!" Seeing that Gu Nianxi was really observing carefully, He Jianchen couldn't help but give her a chokehold, "She is my mother.
!”
mom!
Gu Nianxi's mouth opened in surprise.
How could Sister Man give birth to a son as old as He Jianchen at such a young age!
Could it be... that she is the stepmother?
In Gu Nianxi's stunned eyes, He Jianchen understood her thoughts and said speechlessly, "It's her biological mother."
"Hahahaha." Sister Man's laughter echoed in the living room. She held her face and said confidently: "Many people, like you, don't believe that I have such a big son. I was of legal age to give birth to him. It's only my fault that I'm tall.
Too young, hahaha.”
In Gu Nianxi's opinion, her boasting is not watered down at all. She looks really young, in her thirties at most. Seven years later, her appearance has not changed at all, and she still likes to be fixed with a hair tie.
She has charming long curly hair, her skin is well-maintained, breakable, moist and firm, and not to mention her figure, her graceful figure still exudes full feminine charm.
Sister Man's beauty is the kind of beauty that stands out at a glance. Gu Nianxi still remembers that the reason why she and Lin Yiduo liked going to Manyu Coffee Shop when they were in college was because of Sister Man's feminine look.
The taste was something that the two little girls were very envious of at the beginning.
Unexpectedly, seven years have passed and she has not changed at all. She is still so enthusiastic, lively, generous and charming.
Looking at it this way, He Jianchen's eyes do look like Sister Man's.
"Oh, let's not stand here chatting. Let's go to the restaurant first, Mother Xu! Go and invite the old man and Jian Chen's father to come down."
Jian Manyu took Gu Nianxi's hand and walked into the restaurant. As soon as she entered the restaurant, the large round table in the middle was filled with hot pot ingredients, and a mandarin duck pot in the middle was boiling with fragrant soup.
"Quick! Sit down, sit down."
Jian Manyu pulled Gu Nianxi to her side. Although they were very familiar with each other in the past, now that she has an additional identity, Gu Nianxi has become somewhat cautious. No matter how familiar the relationship is, she is now an elder.
"Why don't you wait until uncle comes to sit down?" Gu Nianxi stood there, not daring to sit down.
Jian Manyu glanced at He Jianchen and waved her hand, "Hurry up and call your dad over. He is such an important person. He has such an important guest at home and still has time to play with his fish."
"Okay, then help me -" He Jianchen just asked his mother to take care of Gu Nianxi, but he saw that his mother didn't even look at him. She kept her eyes on Gu Nianxi and touched her face again.
I touched someone's hand again and looked like I liked it very much.
He Jianchen shook his head speechlessly, turned around and was about to go out when he saw his father and Mr. He coming in.
"Dad, grandpa, you are finally here. If you don't come, my mother will go crazy again." He Jianchen whispered, pouting behind him.
Father He stretched his head and looked over, and his face lit up when he saw Gu Nianxi standing with Jian Manyu.
"Your girlfriend?"
He Jianchen smiled and nodded.
"Boy, you've got a lot of potential!"
Before He's father could speak, Mr. He answered. He tapped He Jianchen's butt with his cane, but He Jianchen still didn't hide away.
"Grandpa! My girlfriend is here, can you save my face?"
Mr. He and Fuli He ignored him, pushed him aside and walked towards Gu Nianxi.
Gu Nianxi, who was chatting with Sister Man, suddenly felt a strange feeling behind her. She turned around and suddenly saw two people staring at her with smiling faces.
Gu Nianxi quickly turned around and greeted Father He and Mr. He.
"Hello grandpa, hello uncle."
"Okay, okay." Mr. He said as he opened the glasses case in his hand, took out his reading glasses and put them on his face.
Mr. He's actions made He Jianchen dumbfounded, "Grandpa, you are too direct."
Gu Nianxi was a little shy when she was seen, and stood there awkwardly. Seeing this, Father He quickly came to the rescue.
"Sit down quickly."
Several people sat down one after another. On Gu Nianxi's left hand was Sister Man, and on the right was He Jianchen. Opposite him sat Father He and Mr. He.
After Mr. He put on his reading glasses, the smile on his face became even brighter. He looked at the beautiful little girl opposite and then at his eldest grandson, and he began to think about whether the wedding banquet was not far away.
"He Jianchen, why don't you introduce me?" He's father said to He Jianchen.
"Oh, dad, grandpa, this is my girlfriend Gu Nianxi."
After He Jianchen finished the introduction, Jian Manyu spoke excitedly.
"Gu Nianxi?" Father He looked at Gu Nianxi and felt that the name sounded familiar, "I seem to have heard this name somewhere before."
"You're right!" Jian Manyu excitedly answered He's father's doubts, "Hubby! Do you remember that I told you before that there are two little girls studying medicine who often come to my coffee shop, and I also
Praise them for being beautiful, well-behaved and sensible.”
"Remember."
"Niannian is one of the two little girls I mentioned. How could such a coincidence happen? A few years ago, I really wanted Niannian to be my daughter-in-law, and even promoted Jianchen to Niannian. Unfortunately,
Nian Nian didn't agree at that time, and she didn't expect that they would end up together after going round and round. Do you think this is fate?" Jian Manyu took Gu Nianxi's hand and said excitedly: "I will take this child when he is a teenager.
Now that we know him, I feel relieved. Nian Nian, please help Sister Man take good care of He Jianchen. If he bullies you, just tell me and I will cut him."
"Mom, your sales skills are not good. You didn't sell me, but I sold myself." After He Jianchen finished speaking, everyone laughed.
Gu Nianxi didn't remember what they were talking about. She sat there and listened obediently to the conversation and laughter of their family. Their laughter infected Gu Nianxi. She was extremely envious of He Jianchen's family atmosphere.
It had been many years since her home had seen such a scene. Ever since Gu's mother left them, laughter had never been heard in her home.
Gu Nianxi smiled slightly, her expression slightly sad. She looked at Jian Manyu who was joking with He Jianchen, and her heart was filled with envy.
