Capítulo 2208: Chapter 2212: Brothers
Ye Xingbei thought for a moment, “Probably not, right? Didn’t Brother Li say so? He’s just hiding his family background and identity; he won’t deliberately change his character or morals. If two people genuinely like each other, even if the girl gets angry after learning about Brother Li’s concealment, as long as he explains it well, it shouldn’t lead to a breakup, right?”
“What if he meets a spirited common girl?” Gu Junzhu laughed, “Like in some idol dramas, where the girl only likes the hard-working young man and not the wealthy heir reeking of money.”
“What nonsense are you talking?” Ye Xingbei chuckled at him, “My Brother Li is not reeking of money! He’s the least stereotypical rich heir. He enjoys eating at Michelin Restaurants just as much as he loves eating at roadside stalls. His friends range from wealthy young masters to ordinary people of all walks of life. He’s not one of those rich heirs with their nose in the air.”
“He really is your own brother,” Gu Junzhu clicked his tongue, “I say one sentence, and you retaliate with ten.”
Smelling the sourness of old jealousy, Ye Xingbei laughed and coaxed him, “Don’t worry, no matter who it is, if they dare to say something bad about you, I’ll retaliate with a hundred or a thousand sentences!”
Gu Junzhu raised an eyebrow at her, “So, in your heart, I’m more important than he is?”
“Of course!” Ye Xingbei said without hesitation, “They say a husband and wife are one. Have you ever heard anyone say a brother and sister are one?”
“Now, that’s more like it,” Fifth Lord of Gu was satisfied, pulling her into his arms and giving her a big kiss, “Ye Xiaobei, you’re getting more and more in line!”
“I’m speaking the truth!” Ye Xingbei held his hand, interlocking their fingers tightly, “People say when a husband prospers, the wife is esteemed, and when a mother prospers, the child is esteemed. Does anyone say when a brother prospers, the sister is esteemed? No matter how good the sister-brother relationship is, once the brother gets a wife, they become a family, and I’m a daughter married off.”
“Right,” Fifth Lord of Gu nodded, “You’re like water spilled out… irreversible!”
Ye Xingbei: “…as long as you’re happy.”
“I’m happy,” Gu Junzhu kissed her, “You’re water spilled into our family. Water is wealth, it’s a treasure… no, more precious than wealth or treasure. People can live without wealth and treasure, but without water, they would surely die.”
Ye Xingbei: “…”
Fifth Lord of Gu’s mouth!
He managed to explain “water spilled out” in such a… affectionate way.
Admirable to the point of utmost respect!
A fulfilling and busy day quickly passed by.
In the evening, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei picked up Xiao Shumiao and Lingyue to go home.
As soon as they entered the house, Gu Junzhu and Ye Xingbei noticed an additional tall, straight figure in the courtyard.
Looking at that person’s back, Gu Junzhu paused slightly, “Brother Chuan?”
The car stopped, and a bodyguard came to open the door.
Zhan Jinchuan also turned around and walked over with big strides.
Gu Junzhu got out of the car to greet him.
The two exchanged a punch on each other’s shoulders and then hugged.
Gu Junzhu patted Zhan Jinchuan’s back, “When did you arrive? How did you keep it so secretive? You didn’t even let anyone pick you up from the airport.”
“No need for a pickup,” Zhan Jinchuan patted his back a few times too, “It’s not like I don’t know the way; I’m back now, aren’t I?”
The two separated, and Zhan Jinchuan looked at Ye Xingbei, “Hello, sister-in-law.”
Although Ye Xingbei hadn’t met Zhan Jinchuan before, during video chats between Gu Junzhu and Zhan Jinchuan, Gu Junzhu had introduced them to each other.
Ye Xingbei was not unfamiliar with Zhan Jinchuan, and she greeted him openly.
