Gu Yan picked up Ye Xiao and brought her out.

The process was smoother than expected.

Ye Bolin was busy dealing with Liu Yan’s affairs and hadn’t returned yet.

As soon as Ye Mingcheng and Du Yaru saw it was Gu Yan, both readily agreed; after the couple left, the shameless parents smiled with tacit understanding.

“I guess this is going to happen,” Du Yaru said with a smile.

If it was Gu Yan, Du Yaru was quite satisfied with this prospective son-in-law.

After all, she had watched the boy grow up. Not to mention his abilities, they were certainly top-notch.

Just the fact that he had kept himself clean with not a whiff of scandal over the years was enough for her to approve.

Ye Mingcheng was somewhat vain: “What’s the rush? Let them date first, what if there’s someone better in the future? From what I see, it’s only Gu Yan who’s smitten right now.”

Heh heh, Du Yaru chuckled, “No matter what, I’m going to call Ya Huijun. She was quite regretful when the engagement between Gu Cheng and Ye Bingtong was called off. After all, the marriage arrangement between the two families was set by you and Gu Yan’s and Gu Cheng’s father many years ago. Mr. Gu passed away early, so if this marriage can happen, it would also fulfill one of his wishes.”

Remembering the premature death of his friend, Ye Mingcheng couldn’t help but show a sigh of emotion on his face.

Thinking about it, the one who had the toughest time over the past years was Gu Yan.

Alone, he propped up the company that was on the brink of collapse and took it to new heights. The hardships faced during that time truly can’t be spoken to outsiders.

Du Yaru joyfully made her phone call.

“What?” Ya Huijun couldn’t help being surprised: “Gu Yan and Ye Xiao? Is this true?”

Gu Yan was no longer young, and she had subtly pushed for marriage several times over the years, but Gu Yan always had the same excuse: too busy with work.

After many failed hints, both overt and covert, she had given up, feeling that Gu Yan would probably remain single for life.

And yet.

He took a liking to Ye Family’s newly found daughter?

They even got to the point of going out on dates?

And she knew nothing of it!

Ya Huijun hung up the phone, still somewhat dazed.

Gu Cheng, who was beside her, got the gist of it and couldn’t help saying, “Mom, now you know.”

Ya Huijun slowly turned her head: “You knew about your big brother liking Ye Xiao as well?”

“It’s pretty obvious,” Gu Cheng couldn’t help retorting, “I even think that just one word from Ye Xiao, and big brother could actually kill me.”

Ya Huijun’s expression suddenly took on a strange cast.

Gu Cheng felt a jolt in his heart.

Had he exaggerated his words, upsetting his mother?

Gu Cheng hurriedly tried to fix it: “It wasn’t that exaggerated. Big brother injured his leg yesterday, and she’s been looking after him the whole time.”

Ya Huijun’s expression remained quite strange.

Gu Cheng suddenly felt a bit guilty.

He hadn’t said the wrong thing, had he?

If his slip of the tongue led his mother to take issue with Ye Xiao, his big brother really would kill him.

“Mom, actually, Ye Xiao is a pretty good person. She may come from a small place, but…”

“Shut up!” Ya Huijun’s voice suddenly sharpened.

Gu Cheng was startled.

“What small place?” Ya Huijun glared at him: “Who allowed you to speak of your future sister-in-law like that?”

Gu Cheng: “???”

Ya Huijun was already excitedly muttering to herself: “Mercy from the heavens, mercy from the heavens! I thought your brother was doomed to be single for life, who would’ve thought he’d see the light one day! Could it be that my prayers at Mount Putuo worked? It seems I must go again to fulfill my vow. Amitabha, Amitabha.”

Ya Huijun instantly became the most faithful believer.

A few black lines hung over Gu Cheng’s little head.

He couldn’t help saying, “Mom! Aren’t you exaggerating a bit? Besides, this thing isn’t even certain yet.”

“Ptui, ptui, ptui, don’t be a jinx!” Ya Huijun immediately glared at him.

Gu Cheng felt somewhat helpless, “Big brother likes Ye Xiao, but from what I see, Ye Xiao doesn’t seem to have any other feelings towards big brother.”

Ya Huijun’s expression changed, and she suddenly became anxious, “That’s true! Your big brother knows nothing but work. When other men see young ladies, they all smiles, but he just keeps a straight face! And he’s so much older than Xiaoxiao! With these conditions, he has no competitive edge at all!”

Ya Huijun visibly started panicking.

Gu Cheng felt a bit awkward.

He wanted to say that his big brother… probably wasn’t that bad, right? And besides, big brother was quite charming in front of Ye Xiao! There was no coldness to be seen.

But seeing Ya Huijun like that, he dared not utter a word.

Ya Huijun, holding her phone, talked to herself, “Should I give him a call now to see how it’s going?”

“No way, no way, they’re on a date. Wouldn’t calling them ruin the mood?”

“I just don’t know if that rascal will mess things up.”

“If all else fails, I’ll have to rely on myself, the mother-in-law, to add points!”

Ya Huijun clenched her teeth, her mind racing with a thousand thoughts.

Gu Cheng felt he couldn’t bear to watch.

Soon, they arrived at Central Park.

The servant helped Gu Cheng out of the car.

Ya Huijun still looked worried.

Gu Cheng’s gaze shifted as he said, “Mom, I want to go check out the fountain. There’s dancing there, you could go and stretch your legs too.”

“What are you implying?” Ya Huijun glanced at Gu Cheng, “Are you tired of me?”

“Of course not. I just don’t want you to get bored,” Gu Cheng quickly said, trying to please her.

“Go on, go on.” Ya Huijun waved her hand, visibly tempted.

She was someone who loved lively places, and dancing, like square dancing, was routine for her.

She even spotted some familiar dance partners at a glance.

Ya Huijun went off to find her dance partners.

Gu Cheng heaved a sigh of relief.

The dutiful servant pushed him towards the fountain.

When they were almost there, Gu Cheng said, “Suddenly my knee feels a bit cold, please go to the car and fetch a blanket for me. I’ll wait here for you.”

The servant didn’t think much of it and readily agreed.

After sending everyone off,

Only then did Gu Cheng, with a heavy heart, slowly begin to push his wheelchair towards the fountain.

He didn’t have much time.

He needed to clarify things with Ye Bingtong in the shortest time possible.

In the central area of Central Park, there was a huge fountain.

Gu Cheng and Ye Bingtong hadn’t arrived yet.

Meanwhile, Ye Xiao and Gu Yan were sneakily hiding behind a rock.

“Uncle Gu, pay attention. If the two of them are on the east side, we’ll move to that rock,” Ye Xiao instructed seriously, “If they’re on the north side, it’s that rock, if…”

Ye Xiao concluded, “In any case, we absolutely can’t miss the best viewing spot!”

As he said this, he suddenly felt it inappropriate to treat someone’s brother as a spectacle. Ye Xiao hurriedly added, “What I mean is! We need to prevent Gu Cheng from making mistakes.”

A barely perceptible smile appeared on Gu Yan’s lips as he solemnly promised, “Don’t worry, I’ve already scoped out the routes. As soon as they come over, we’ll adjust our position according to their direction. In less than ten seconds, we’ll be in place.”

Ye Xiao patted Gu Yan’s shoulder, quite satisfied.

This gossip partner wasn’t bad at all!

Not only did he bring him to the scene in time, but he also prepared a viewing strategy and planned the route.

He had saved her a lot of trouble!

If Gu Yan could always be this reliable, it might not be a bad idea to make him a long-term gossip partner.
