Chapter 626: Who Got Married?
рlease reading οn ΒXΝOVEL.ϹΟMGu Dai, annoyed at herself, slapped her forehead lightly. “I was so engrossed in my thoughts that I didn’t realize my expression had turned serious.”
Su Ting gently rubbed Gu Dai’s head in reassurance, “I should have asked you directly.”
When Meng Zhi arrived, he saw Gu Dai and Su Ting standing close together affectionately. He strode forward, his voice laced with shock, “Daidai, did you and Su Ting really get married?”
Gu Dai lifted the marriage certificate in her hand and replied with a smile, “Of course it’s real.”
As her voice faded, she suddenly became cautious and turned to Meng Zhi, asking, “Third Brother, you’re not going to object, are you?”
Su Ting’s expression briefly flashed with tension, but he quickly composed himself and stepped forward, meeting Meng Zhi’s gaze with a serious assurance, “Third Brother, I will definitely treat Daidai well and not let her down. Please believe me.”
Meng Zhi nodded eagerly, “I believe, of course, I believe you. And don’t be nervous, our family has long accepted you, and we’ve also been hoping you two would get married.”
Meng Zhi was speaking truthfully. Through their time spent together, he sincerely believed that Su Ting was a man worthy of trust. Most importantly, he saw that Su Ting’s world revolved around Gu Dai, who also reciprocated his feelings.
Upon hearing Meng Zhi’s words, Gu Dai let down her guard, only then noticing Meng Zhi’s disheveled hair, resembling a haystack, and his pajamas.
She asked in bewilderment, “Third Brother, what’s with your appearance?”
Realizing his state, Meng Zhi pressed down on his hair and, looking slightly embarrassed, admitted, “I just woke up and saw the news of you and Su Ting getting married, so I rushed over here immediately.”
Gu Dai pressed her lips together and chuckled, then coughed softly before speaking in a low voice, “Third Brother, I was planning to go out on a date with Su Ting. You…”
Meng Zhi instantly understood that Gu Dai did not want him to be a third wheel, “Okay, okay, have fun. I’ll head back now.”
He didn’t leave immediately, his face showing a bit of struggle before he made up his mind and said, “Daidai, can I ask you something?”
This was the first time Gu Dai saw Meng Zhi so conflicted, and her interest was piqued immediately. “Go ahead.”
Meng Zhi hesitated, “Nuannuan has been smiling these past few days, but I can feel that she’s somewhat down.”
Gu Dai’s lips tightened as she looked down, “Hmm, spend more time with her these days.”
Meng Zhi shook his head, “I don’t think it’s working. Daidai, can you tell me why Nuannuan is feeling down?”
Gu Dai looked conflicted, finally sighing, “Six years ago, Nuannuan suddenly told me she had a breakup. Then she fell seriously ill with a high fever. When she recovered, she seemed happy, so I thought she had moved on. But then, she became downcast again around the same time the following year, and the year after that…”
Meng Zhi was stunned, “A breakup?”
Gu Dai nodded gently, “Yes.”
Meng Zhi pressed, “Do you know who the man was?”
Gu Dai shook her head, “I hadn’t heard about Nuannuan liking anyone before, and later, afraid of touching on a painful subject, I never asked.”
Meng Zhi acknowledged her answer and then said, “Go and enjoy your time with Su Ting.”
Taking out his phone, Meng Zhi lingered for a moment, his expression gradually firming as he tapped a few times on the screen before heading home to change and then seeking out Shi Nuan.
At the Song family home.
Ever since Song Yu had recovered from her illness, she had ceased her previous reckless behaviors, becoming much more composed and focused on her studies.
Tired from her studies, she took out her phone intending to play a game to relax. To her surprise, as soon as she opened it, a push notification appeared, and it was about Gu Dai.
After reading the message, Song Yu incredulously widened her eyes, “How could Sister Gu Dai marry Su Ting? It must be a mistake, definitely my eyes playing tricks.”
She rubbed her eyes and looked again, but the message remained unchanged, “Sister Gu Dai really got married. My brother truly has no chance now.”
Suddenly, a noise at the doorway startled her.
Turning around, she saw Wang Lan standing at the door, the sound having been caused by a plate falling to the ground, surrounded by scattered fruits.
The housekeeper hurried over to clean up the mess.
Once the housekeeper left, Wang Lan regained her composure, her voice trembling as she asked, “Yuyu, what did you just say?”
Song Yu, her mood sour, replied while looking at her phone, “Sister Gu Dai and Su Ting got married..”
