Translator: 549690339
For the entire afternoon, everyone was busy moving the props to the East Auditorium.
Wen Xiaochu couldn’t understand: “Why are we making things so easy for them? Even if it escalates to the principal, we should still argue our case.”
Xia Yangyang said: “If the result of arguing is the same, why should I use this energy? The principal is currently competing for the position of Minister of Culture and Entertainment and needs the political support of Kim Fei’er’s father, so he would definitely side with her.”
Wen Xiaochu angrily said: “I’m not angry because of Kim Fei’er, but because of what Gu Zhaohan said. Lately, he’s been like he’s possessed, completely different. Even though he was never good at communicating or talking before, he could clearly distinguish between right and wrong. How is it that he’s now blind and helping Kim Fei’er?”
Xia Yangyang said: “They are a team, so helping Kim Fei’er is not unjustified. Okay, let’s stop complaining and start cleaning up the auditorium.”
By the time they finished cleaning the auditorium, it was already dusk.
Everyone was practically exhausted.
Xia Yangyang originally planned to have a meal with everyone, but received a call from Gu Qichen.
He said that the family was hosting guests at the old house that evening, and he asked them to come home for it.
Xia Yangyang could only rush back to Maple Villa, take a quick shower, and change into new clothes.
Once in the car, Xia Yangyang asked: “Who is the old man hosting tonight?”
Gu Qichen replied: “When he was young, the old man served in the army. After retiring, he places great importance on these bonds of military brotherhood. The guest tonight is a comrade from his younger days who has been living abroad. He couldn’t attend the old man’s birthday before, so he is making a special visit this time.”
Xia Yangyang nodded.
Gu Qichen continued, “Of course, the key point is that he brought his granddaughter. It’s like a kind of disguised blind date.”
Xia Yangyang was drinking juice when he heard the words ‘blind date’, and almost spurted out a mouthful of juice.
Xia Yangyang cautiously asked: “Blind date, for whom?”
Gu Qichen found Xia Yangyang’s sudden alarm amusing: “Of course, for Xiao Han. Who else do you think it would be?”
Xia Yangyang didn’t recover for a moment.
Because the old man had previously arranged blind dates for Gu Qichen, Xia Yangyang’s first thought when hearing the words ‘blind date’ was Gu Qichen.
Xia Yangyang said, “Gu Zhaohan is the same age as me, isn’t he? At the age of 20, arranging a blind date is a bit too anxious for the old man, isn’t it?”
Gu Qichen replied, “Well, he’s just a year older than you. It may not exactly be a blind date. The old man just wanted to introduce them to each other, maybe become friends, especially since he has an aunt younger than him. He is about to graduate, and he has never had a girlfriend.”
Xia Yangyang snorted: “He certainly doesn’t consider me his aunt. He always opposes me.”
Whenever Xia Yangyang recalled the incident at the auditorium, she felt extremely angry.
Gu Qichen could tell something was wrong: “Did you two have a conflict?”
Xia Yangyang let out a sigh: “Forget it, I don’t want to talk about it. Anyway, I can’t afford to offend your grandnephew.”
Gu Qichen tried to pry a bit more, but Xia Yangyang refused to elaborate.
She wasn’t one to gossip behind people’s backs.
Besides, she knew that Gu Zhaohan was targeting her because of her own relationship with his uncle, if he knew she’d spoken badly of him behind his back, it would probably make their conflict worse.
They quickly arrived at Gu’s residence.
The lights of the Gu Villa shone brightly.
Upon entering, Gu Qichen asked the housekeeper, “Where is Xiao Han?”
The housekeeper replied: “Young Master Han just got home and is in his
room..”
