Chapter 17: Family Dinner (2)

So when he heard Gu Jin’s voice, he immediately ran down the stairs towards her .

In order to keep his temper in check, he tried hard not to bring Cheng Xin into their conversations .

He never expected that his silly sister would suddenly be enlightened!

But he was still anxious that she would be upset with him again .

From time to time, he would look up at Gu Jin nervously, but she seemed just fine .

Gu Jin allowed Aunt Zhao to continue on with her duties . Now that they’ve seen each other, the Aunt grinned happily and returned to the kitchen .

By the time Li Mingxia returned home, it was almost 6 o’clock .

As soon as Mrs . Gu entered through the door, Gu Jin realized where she and her brother inherited their good looks .

Li Mingxia was two years younger than Gu Changsheng . After being married to him for decades, Father Gu never burdened her to do work in the kitchen .

Both of Mrs . Gu’s children have matured, but time seemed to favor Li Mingxia, leaving no trace of aging on her .

She was nearly fifty-years old but her hair was still a lustrous black and her eyes were bright; she carried an elegance and dignity that was a part of her every fiber and being .

Simply, exquisite .

When Mrs . Gu arrived home, she appeared quite troubled .

But when she saw her daughter who rarely came home, she barely managed to smile .

“Little Jin, you look like you’ve lost some weight . Have you been eating well?” She pressed Gu Jin’s slender wrists and said, “You and Cheng Xin are living together, and you’re both still young; you two should take good care of yourselves . Don’t try to lose so much weight–it’s bad for your health . ”

Gu Jin had never experienced such motherly love in her past life . She nodded eagerly and said with embarrassment, “I’ll remember that . ”

When Father Gu saw that his wife had returned, he immediately put down his newspaper and politely came to her side to take her bag .

Gu Jin was pushed to the side, out of sight . She seriously doubted if this romantic man was her serious, old-fashioned father .

Zhao Wei’s cooking was very delicious; the food was full of color and fragrance, and the dishes were neatly placed on the table . Such a display successfully wetted Gu Jin’s appetite .

But when she looked at the couple who sat in silence, she didn’t dare to move her chopsticks or touch the food .

Even the arrogant Gu Teng, who was usually loud, was completely quiet at the moment .

In the middle of this awkward silence, Father Gu spoke up: “Mingxia, you see that Xiao Jin rarely comes home . Let’s have dinner first, then we’ll talk about things later . ”

Mother Gu’s solemn face finally brightened up with a smile . She took the initiative to put a piece of ribs on Gu Jin’s plate and encouraged, “This is your favorite, come eat more . ”

Feeling slightly fearful, Gu Jin picked up her chopsticks and chewed the meat . She glanced at her mother to her left, and then at her father’s serious face to her right side .

She then lowered her head and continued to eat her meal in dread .

After dinner, Gu Teng approached her and asked what kind of game it was that she got for him .

As Gu Jin applied a face mask to her skin, she replied back, “I put it in mother’s bedroom; she said she would give it to you after you finish your exam, or would you like to ask her for it first?”

Gu Teng: …My sister became cunning .

He really wasn’t lacking any money to buy a computer game . He only cared that this game was bought for him ‘specially’ by his sister .

“Do you know why our parents are in conflict right now?” Gu Jin asked .

“I know why . ” Gu Teng glanced at her thoughtfully, wondering if she had completely forgotten the event . Finally, he said, “Grandma will be coming in a few days . ”

What’s wrong about grandma coming over?

Gu Jin tried to pull from her memory before responding to her brother .  What did he mean by her coming over?

That’s right, whenever Grandma Gu visited, Gu Ling would come along as well! Gu Jin recalled this name with distaste .

This dislike wasn’t hers, but the original host’s . Gu Ling was someone who could cause the refined host to actually react in disgust; that was because this cousin’s character was absolutely unrestrained and explosive .

Speaking of Gu Ling, she was also a character that was mentioned a number of times in the novel . Gu Jin, who read the novel in her previous world, knew a few things about this character .
