Chapter 1181: Wedding Gift! Uncle Bo’s Protective Streak

Sponsored

Gu Anxi let out a few surprised sounds, her face turning red: "It’s nothing, just some fragrances, quite exquisite."

Uncle Bo smiled: "Really, it seems like something you carefully prepared?"

Gu Anxi blushed even more, silently eating breakfast while watching Bo Xichen.

Uncle Bo knew exactly what was going on, and simply smiled gently.

After finishing breakfast, he went out to handle some tasks. As soon as he left, Gu Anxi jumped up and shouted, "Finally, he’s gone."

Lady Bo laughed and scolded, "Look at you, all grown up. Before, you wanted him back, and now that he’s here, you’re scared to death. Where’s that fearless spirit of yours usually?"

Gu Anxi lowered her head and whispered, "Uncle is getting more and more strict."

She didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but he seems to fit the role of a father quite well, which makes it feel different, she thought secretly.

Bo Nianyao and Lady Bo exchanged a glance, and smiled slightly, then sighed.

After all, Anxi is still a child, young in age, not as steady as Xichen, and adjusted to her new role swiftly.

Today happened to be the lucky day for Chen Ming and Song Jia to get married, and as Zhou Yunchen’s half-sister, Gu Anxi had to go there early. She went to Zhou Yunchen’s house, where the Zhou Family was bustling with activity.

Shen Congwen saw her arrive and pulled her into Song Jia’s room, smiling and said, "The person you’ve been thinking about is here, now you can have a heart-to-heart talk."

Gu Anxi looked rather astonished: "How did I become the person she thinks about?"

Song Jia also denied it, letting out a light hum: "Yeah, she’s definitely not the person I think about."

With this denial, Gu Anxi propped up her chin, deliberately teasing: "I know it’s Chen Ming then!"

Song Jia snarled at her, and Gu Anxi quickly said: "Don’t forget you’re getting married today; making that face after putting on makeup is quite scary."

Song Jia rolled her eyes.

In the end, Shen Congwen knew his sister-in-law’s thoughts, smiling and said: "I’ll go out first, sounds like Chen Ming’s motorcade has arrived."

Gu Anxi watched the situation, knowing that this young lady was a bit troubled on her wedding day, and she happened to come to serve as a psychological counselor. Leaning on the sofa, she straightforwardly asked: "Getting married today, aren’t you thinking of my Uncle Bo? Sister, what’s wrong with Chen Ming, tall and strong, aren’t there many women envying you? Every time I see his previous dating partners, I feel they’re drooling."

Song Jia glared at her: "No way it’s as exaggerated as you say."

"It’s not exaggerated." Gu Anxi grinned: "You should know best about our Chen Ming’s good points, right?"

Song Jia seemed to always be serious, and couldn’t take his pushiness, so she reached out to pinch Gu Anxi, but Gu Anxi dodged, kindly pressing her shoulder: "The wedding dress is worn so beautifully, why mess it up?"

She added: "Your mind is already troubled enough, if your clothes get messy too, how can you get married?"

Those words made Song Jia somewhat sad, she glanced at Gu Anxi, and then softly said:

"Do you know my thoughts?"

Gu Anxi chuckled softly: "Still thinking about Uncle Bo, right?"

Her fingers lightly touched Song Jia’s delicate cheek, whispering: "You probably like Chen Ming, but Uncle Bo... Uncle Bo really attracts women. He’s not here anymore, longing for the absent one isn’t wrong, you don’t need to feel guilty."

After she spoke, Song Jia was stunned, and after a while, she said in a choked voice: "Do you really think so?"

"What else?" Gu Anxi glanced at her: "Unless you lose memory, you’d immediately remember Uncle Bo, isn’t that normal?"

Song Jia breathed a sigh of relief, lately she indeed was thoughtful, feeling that she and Chen Ming were about to get married, but occasionally at night, she’d remember that past, remember those days with Bo Qing in the Dark. She had grown up in the Dark since childhood, and didn’t know if it was normal for people to recall past events like this. She couldn’t figure out... whether she loved Bo Qing more, and she couldn’t ask others, even brother and sister-in-law she couldn’t ask.

Only Gu Anxi, the little shameless one, she could awkwardly ask.

As expected, Gu Anxi didn’t disappoint her... Song Jia gritted her teeth and thought.

Gu Anxi felt rather proud, then Song Jia started asking her: "Tell me, do you still have Qin Siyuan in your heart?"

Gu Anxi immediately flared up: "Song Jia, he’s my brother-in-law."

’That doesn’t change that you liked someone else.’ Song Jia said acidly: "When they got married, you must have felt uncomfortable, right?"

Gu Anxi really wanted to sew her mouth shut but thought carefully and tried to endure: "Only Chen Ming could live with your personality."

She thought secretly: Chen Ming probably acted up seeing beauty.

After Song Jia’s sharp tongue, she felt much better inside, and then looking at Gu Anxi became more pleasing.

Gu Anxi paid her no heed, Song Jia nudged her: "All right, all right, already a mother, still arguing with me like this."

Gu Anxi hummed softly, then pretended to be reserved and presented her gift.

Song Jia was quite surprised: "You prepared a gift?"

Gu Anxi hummed softly, looking proud.

Song Jia wanted to open it, but Gu Anxi coughed lightly: "Be careful not to break it."

Song Jia glanced at her, carefully opened it, and inside was a very exquisite glass jar, the design very unique, accompanied by two bottles of essential oil.

She looked at it for quite a while before softly saying: "Isn’t this a bit lavish? It’s a masterpiece from a famous artist, isn’t it?"

Each one costs over a million, isn’t it too extravagant for Gu Anxi to use this to add essential oil?

Gu Anxi smiled, "It’s not a waste, it’s not a waste. If you all like it, then it’s not a waste."

Song Jia looked at her, feeling satisfied, so she didn’t bother Gu Anxi anymore... Just then, Chen Ming came over with a group of brothers. On this happy day, his handmade suit made him look strikingly handsome.

And because of Zhou Yunchen’s connections, many people from the office came over. The Zhou residence was particularly lively.

In this buzz of activity, Gu Anxi stepped aside, standing next to Shen Congwen.

Shen Congwen, slightly taller than her, gently put an arm around her shoulder and whispered, "Thank you, Anxi."

Gu Anxi felt a bit flustered, pondering whether she should just be a good person to the end and not do that thing anymore?

But just as she was thinking of acting, she saw Chen Ming sweep his big hand, taking the treasured item along with Song Jia downstairs...

Time to get married!

Gu Anxi watched eagerly.

Seeing her expression change, Shen Congwen couldn’t help but ask, "What’s wrong, Anxi?"

Gu Anxi forced a laugh, "—Nothing, nothing!"

What could be wrong? How dare there be anything wrong? Chen Ming had already taken the stuff away, and from his demeanor, he seemed very satisfied. Besides, he’s usually rough, so perhaps he wants to play a little romantic today.

Poor Song Jia!

Poor thing!

Sorry, after today you probably won’t have the heart to think about Second Uncle... thinking this way, Gu Anxi felt she wouldn’t feel so guilty, pretty good.

She let it go quickly, pulling Shen Congwen to join in the fun.

Chen Ming and Song Jia’s families weren’t very big. Most were friends from work related to Zhou Yunchen and Chen Ming, and although Song Jia was a top actress, she didn’t like mingling with peers, so the wedding was media-free.

Chen Ming thought it was just fine; his wife was very considerate.

However, at the wedding banquet in the evening, Gu Anxi stirred up trouble, causing quite a few to drink, even Zhou Yunchen couldn’t stand it. This little rascal was making a fuss herself and dragging Congwen into it, clearly banking on Song Jia not falling out with Shen Congwen and deliberately dragging Congwen in. Congwen... was pretty aware but today was genuinely... he perhaps needed to let loose, playing recklessly.

Just when the atmosphere was incredibly lively, the group returned to Chen Ming’s place for more fun. At that moment, Chen Ming’s mother, who really admired Gu Anxi, somehow found the gift Gu Anxi had given, filled it with essential oil, lit it, and placed it at the bedside, rubbing her hands together: "This thing just looks pricey."

Gu Anxi stared straight at it, a bit dumbfounded.

Inside Chen Ming and Song Jia’s wedding room, there were at least fifteen people.

Chen Ming’s mother looked at Gu Anxi, delighted, and couldn’t help but be delighted herself, "It smells so good, Anxi’s gift is indeed special."

Gu Anxi watched as she leaned forward to give it a sniff, internally panicking—

How could this be okay?

At this moment, Wang Jingchuan, sharp as ever, saw what was happening and lightly coughed, "It’s not early, we’ve had our fun. Why don’t we call it a night and leave some time for the newlyweds."

He looked at Chen Ming’s mother seriously, "It’s getting late, you should rest too!"

Chen Ming’s mother didn’t suspect anything, chuckling, "Okay, we won’t disturb you."

She glanced at her son, "Be good to Duoduo. If she has any complaints, I won’t forgive you first."

Chen Ming was moved because his mother used Song Jia’s nickname, showing she truly wanted to treat her as a daughter, so he nodded, "A wife is meant to be cherished."

Chen Ming’s mother was extremely satisfied, leaving with everyone, even planning to prepare some snacks or something.

Wang Jingyao had been talking with Zhou Yunchen downstairs; their standing made it improper to be as rowdy as the kids. As they were discussing important matters, they saw them coming downstairs. Wang Jingyao smiled, "Weren’t you supposed to have more fun? Why leaving so soon?"

Zhou Yunchen then focused on Gu Anxi’s face, "Could it be Anxi that you caused trouble again?"

Gu Anxi almost jumped up high, protesting, "I didn’t, don’t wrong me."

This moment, Bo Xichen stood up and grabbed her, addressing Wang Jingyao and the others, "It’s getting late, we have two kids at home, so Anxi and I should head back."

Wang Jingyao was a bit disheartened, giving a small hum, "Really, who doesn’t have kids?"

He looked at Zhou Yunchen, "We don’t, do we, do we?"

Zhou Yunchen smiled, "They have two."

Two, so impressive!

Wang Jingyao touched his nose, unwilling to admit, well, it’s impressive. These people have no idea how envious the older folks are, always saying Xichen is dependable, while his own son just handles work, but fails at important matters for the Wang family!

How did he miss it? When he’s also a father?

That night, he ended up bullying Lin Hua into tears. In a good mood, he teased, "Have I missed out?"

Which infuriated Lin Hua into ignoring him for several days! Sigh, this matter needs that little rascal Wang to mediate, so earlier she was guilty, and with Xichen defending her, he didn’t stop them...
