C1270 The Gu Family
When the two of them arrived at Old Mansion, there was more than one car parked outside.
Besides Gu family's car, it was probably the Du family's car.
Huo Niannian pursed her lips and lowered her head to stare at her feet, trying her best to calm herself down.
After all, the biggest issue of the Gu family was the marriage between Gu Zifan and Du Ruoqing. It was fine for her to suffer some grievances, but she couldn't let Gu Tingshen make things difficult for her and the Gu family.
Gu Tingshen seemed to have sensed Huo Niannian's emotions. He spread out his tightly clenched palm.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing. Let's go in quickly. "
His eyes were deep as he stared at the little woman beside him for a moment.
He really knew this woman too well. It was most likely that she was hiding something that she was unwilling to let him know.
Just as she was about to speak again, she was interrupted by Old Master Gu's voice and shouted at the two of them.
"Come in quickly, it's time for dinner. "
"Alright. "
Huo Niannian quickly responded. She pulled Gu Tingshen, who had stopped walking, into the room and sat on the sofa at the side.
Just like last time, Father Du and Gu Changqing sat on the main seat. In the middle was Old Master Gu, and across from them were Gu Zifan and Du Ruoqing.
Du Tianhua laughed, a cunning look was hidden in his eyes.
"Now that everyone is here, let's set the date of the engagement. "
"Okay, okay. " Old Master Gu nodded and smiled. He held the calendar with many dates on it. "These are the dates I have seen these days. They are all good days. Ruo Qing, what do you think?"
"Me? I can do anything, Grandpa. "
Du Ruoqing was stunned for a moment. She withdrew her gaze from Gu Tingshen and pretended to be obedient.
She swept her gaze across Huo Niannian, who was standing beside Gu Tingshen. Her eyes were filled with jealousy and viciousness. She immediately combed her hair and said with an embarrassed tone.
"However, Grandpa, didn't you ask Niannian to design a set of jewelry for me? I don't know if it will delay the engagement date. "
Huo Niannian was suddenly mentioned. She tried her best to squeeze out a smile from the eyes that were looking at her.
This sentence clearly wanted to draw the conflict onto her so that she would be forced to take the hot potato.
She secretly cursed in her heart, but she could only maintain her politeness and refuse.
"This morning, Du Miss also came to find me, but I feel that I am not qualified. Du Miss studied design overseas, so she will definitely be able to design a meaningful piece of jewelry for herself. "
"But Grandpa has already agreed. " Du Ruoqing restrained all her emotions and said with a face full of grievance, "I was thinking that Niannian's new product would be so beautiful and she could design it herself. "
After saying that, the corner of her mouth curled into a cold smile.
She specifically emphasized in her words "personally" and this time she did not believe that Huo Niannian could reject it.
Gu Tingshen's face suddenly became gloomy. He glanced at the person opposite him and said coldly.
"What? You want to order the people of Gu family around before you become a member of Gu family?"
These words instantly made the atmosphere awkward. Even Du Tianhua who wanted to speak up for him was forced to shut his mouth.
Du Ruoqing's face turned red and she did not know how to explain.
She only wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to make things difficult for Huo Niannian, but she did not think that it would be said that she was making things difficult for Huo Niannian.
"Alright, stop talking. In the future, we will be a family, inseparable from each other. "
Old Master Gu was the first to speak, and he broke the awkward atmosphere with a smile.
He turned to look at Huo Niannian and spoke in a gentle tone.
"Niannian, this is indeed what Grandpa promised Ruoqing. Do you think you can give face to Grandpa. . . "
