Chapter 56: Holding a grudge?

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Grandma Gu’s face was full of smiles. She took Meng Nianyao’s hand affectionately and said to Gu Wencheng, “Then go get the car. We’ll wait here.”

This was a pedestrian street, so cars couldn’t enter. Meng Nianyao, Grandpa Gu, and Grandma Gu went to the intersection outside to wait for Gu Wencheng. After about five minutes, Gu Wencheng drove over.

When they got into the car, Grandma Gu pushed Grandpa Gu to the back seat, leaving the passenger seat for Meng Nianyao. Meng Nianyao didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at the obvious attempt at matchmaking. When she got into the car, she met Gu Wencheng’s eyes again. He seemed to be smiling.

Meng Nianyao pursed her lips and suddenly remembered that the two of them were still arguing! She lowered her gaze to avoid looking at him and pulled out her seatbelt.

The Gu family’s old mansion was located in the wealthy district of City B. The environment was quiet and the air was fresh. The villas were scattered everywhere. The car kept moving forward and finally stopped in front of a pine forest. historical

Grandpa Gu and Grandma Gu got out of the car, and so did Meng Nianyao.

“Nianyao.” Grandma Gu waved at Meng Nianyao and waited for her to walk over before pulling her home.

There was a small path in the pine forest. After walking for two to three minutes, they saw a carved gate.

“We’re here.” As soon as Grandma Gu finished speaking, someone came to open the door. It was an old man in his sixties who greeted Grandma Gu when he saw her.

Grandma Gu responded and introduced excitedly to the old man. “This is Wen Cheng’s girlfriend, Meng Nianyao.” This is your grandfather’s old friend. He’s lived with us for most of his life. You can call him Uncle Nan.”

“Hello, Uncle Nan,” Meng Nianyao greeted with a smile.

Uncle Nan was very enthusiastic. “Hello, Miss Meng, come in and sit.”

The Gu family’s old residence was a Chinese-style building with a small bridge and flowing water. It was like walking into an ancient Grand View Garden. Out of her professional instincts, Meng Nianyao was a little reluctant to walk past any unique buildings. Grandma Gu called her several times, but she didn’t respond. She looked at the carved window and was lost in it.

Gu Wencheng walked up and put his hand on Meng Nianyao’s shoulder. He explained to Grandma Gu lovingly, “She studied architecture. She can’t move when she sees beautiful buildings.”

Meng Nianyao came back to her senses the moment Gu Wencheng put his hand on hers. She couldn’t shake off his hand in front of Grandma Gu, so she could only take a step back and act shy.”I’m sorry, Grandma. 1 was too engrossed in it. The old mansion is very beautiful.”

Grandma Gu shook her head. “It’s nothing. I just didn’t expect Nianyao to have studied architectural design.”

“I like all kinds of houses.” Because she didn’t have a home, she envied other people’s homes. She also wanted a home that truly belonged to her one day.

“It just so happens that this house was designed by Wencheng.” Grandma Gu glanced at Gu Wencheng and patted Meng Nianyao’s hand, giving them a chance to be alone.”Let him take you around.”

With that, Grandma Gu left with Grandpa Gu and Uncle Nan.

“Let’s go.”

Meng Nianyao wasn’t a vengeful person, but she had an awkward personality. She didn’t want to talk to Gu Wencheng and was still angry! But now that they were in his house, she had to talk to him.

Meng Nianyao pursed her lips and followed behind Gu Wencheng.

The old residence was quite large. The two of them walked for more than 20 minutes without any communication before they roughly walked around the residence.

Meng Nianyao was going to work today, so she was wearing high heels. She had walked a lot today, and her heels were hurting. She looked down and was about to continue walking when Gu Wencheng stopped.

“Do your feet hurt?” Gu Wencheng asked.

“It’s fine.” Meng Nianyao shook her head. As she spoke, she continued to walk forward. However, with every step she took, she felt pain.

Gu Wencheng stood there and watched for a while before catching up with Meng Nianyao and carrying her in his arms. “You don’t mean what you say.”

Meng Nianyao’s body was weightless, and she subconsciously let out a cry. She wrapped her arms around Gu Wencheng’s neck, and after a moment, she glared at him. “What are you doing?”

Gu Wencheng ignored her and strode into the room.”Mrs. Gu, other than being a hypocrite, you’re also very petty.”

“Put me down.” Meng Nianyao’s face turned cold.”

Gu Wencheng pretended not to hear her and continued walking towards the room. He said slowly, “Keep shouting. If you shout louder, Grandpa and Grandma will hear you.”

Sometimes, Meng Nianyao really wanted to beat him up! She took a deep breath and looked at Gu Wencheng.”You already said that I’m narrow-minded. Why would I be afraid that Grandpa and Grandma would hear me?”

Gu Wencheng stopped and looked down at Meng Nianyao..”You’re holding a grudge just because of that?”
