Chapter 1211 Being a Guest
He Lingchu's phone rang again after a while. He picked it up and saw that it was his aunt. He parked the car aside and reached out to answer the phone, "Hello, aunt."
"Lingchu! I made an appointment with Yu Ning for dinner tonight. Did she tell you?" Pan Li's voice rang.
"Yeah! I know, she told me."
"Okay, then bring her back earlier, and we'll have a good gathering tonight."
"Chenxu is back too."
"What?"
"He's back, where is he?"
"In my car." He Lingchu said, and handed the phone to Shangguan Chenxu, who immediately reached out to take it. He didn't neglect his mother's call, and immediately called out affectionately, "Mom, I'm back."
"Chenxu, you're finally back, where have you been these days, I can't find you."
"I just went on a trip, mom, I'll be back soon."
"Okay, let's come back for dinner tonight."
"Okay!" Shangguan Chenxu said, hung up the phone, and said to He Lingchu beside him, "Will you bring your girlfriend home for dinner tonight?" Shangguan Chenxu's eyes flashed with some ill intentions.
He Lingchu started the car and turned his head to warn him, "You'd better not mess around."
"Mess around, how could I mess around? I also want to get to know my beautiful cousin-in-law." Shangguan Chenxu's tone clearly meant that he was going to mess around.
He Lingchu frowned and ignored him, just driving towards Gong Yuning's hotel.
Gong Yuning, Gu Yue, and Gu Hao sat together on the sofa in the hotel, and Gu Yue stared at him unhappily.
"Tell me the truth, what do you want to do? Even if your parents approve of you, you have to see what kind of person you like."
"Chenxu treats me very well."
"But now, he hasn't revealed his identity to his family, Gu Hao, I hope you can give them some time." Gong Yuning advised.
"I've thought about it, I will give his family time to accept us, I won't force myself to appear in front of his family." Gu Hao nodded.
Gong Yuning couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and at this moment, her mobile phone on the table rang.
She picked up the phone and took a look. It was He Lingchu calling. He should be taking her back to his aunt's house for dinner.
"Hello." Gong Yuning picked up the phone.
"Yuning, I'll be at your hotel soon. I'll take you to my aunt's house for dinner."
"Okay, I'll be down right away." Gong Yuning responded.
Gong Yuning said to the two siblings, "I may not be able to have dinner with you tonight. See you later."
"Go! We can do it ourselves." Gu Yue said to her.
Gong Yuning picked up her bag and got up to go out.
As soon as she walked out of the hotel gate, she saw He Lingchu's car driving around the hotel entrance. As soon as the car stopped, Gong Yuning knew that Shangguan Chenxu should still be in the car.
She opened the door of the back seat and got in.
As soon as she got in, Shangguan Chenxu in the passenger seat leaned over and looked at her.
Gong Yuning closed the car door and politely greeted Shangguan Chenxu, "Master Shangguan, hello, we meet again."
"Yes! I was too busy at the airport last time, and I didn't greet you properly. Hello, my future cousin-in-law." Shangguan Chenxu smiled.
Gong Yuning was slightly embarrassed when she heard his address, but she didn't refute.
He Lingchu said to her, "Yuning, fasten your seat belt, we're off."
"Okay." Gong Yuning fastened her seat belt.
He Lingchu's car drove out of the hotel and headed straight for the city center.
"Cousin-in-law, you are a painter! You are amazing." Shangguan Chenxu praised, but his tone always gave people a feeling of insincerity.
Gong Yuning smiled and responded, "Yeah! This is my job and my hobby."
"Your surname is Gong, this surname is rarely heard, but I have heard of a family with the surname Gong, which is very rich. You don't have any relationship with this Gong family, do you?" Shangguan Chenxu asked curiously.
"You don't know which Gong family you are talking about." Gong Yuning asked with a smile.
He Lingchu said in a low voice, "Yuning is the one you are thinking of."
"Wow, that's amazing, it turns out that you are from the Gong family, I guess you are the lady of this family!" After saying that, Shangguan Chenxu turned his head to look at He Lingchu, "Cousin, you are so lucky! You actually caught up with the lady of the Gong family."
For some reason, Gong Yuning didn't like Shangguan Chenxu's tone of voice, which was very frivolous.
She looked at He Lingchu in the rearview mirror, and He Lingchu also looked at her with some concern. Gong Yuning pursed her lips and smiled, indicating that she was fine.
Shangguan Chenxu saw that his cousin ignored him, and he was also a little bored, but now he understood why He Lingchu cared so much about this lady of the Gong family.
It turned out that in terms of family wealth, his cousin was still weaker, so his cousin must have been attracted by the other person and his wealth! Shangguan Chenxu suddenly had a vicious idea. He wanted to let He Lingchu know what it felt like to be torn apart from the one he loved.
Shangguan Chenxu was playing music again, and the atmosphere in the car was not too awkward.
Half an hour later, they arrived at Pan Li's residence. It was already five o'clock in the afternoon.
The car stopped in the parking lot. He Lingchu immediately unbuckled his seat belt and got out of the car. He opened the door for Gong Yuning as soon as possible. Gong Yuning smiled sweetly at him.
At this time, a figure rushed out from the garden road. It was Shangguan Ningman. When she saw Gong Yuning stepping out of the car, a trace of annoyance flashed in her eyes.
"Brother, you are back." Shangguan Ningman greeted him happily.
Shangguan Chenxu replied indifferently, "Yes, I am back."
"Cousin." Shangguan Ningman called He Lingchu sweetly again, but she didn't call Gong Yuning.
He Lingchu was a little annoyed, but he didn't show it. He took Gong Yuning's hand and said, "Come with me."
Gong Yuning didn't take Shangguan Ningman's coldness to heart, but she really didn't know how she offended her, and offended her so deeply. "Brother, where is your gift? Why did you come back empty-handed? You didn't even buy me a gift!" Shangguan Ningman said with some complaints.
"Okay, I'll make it up to you later." Shangguan Chenxu said perfunctorily, and then he put his hands in his pockets and went back to the direction of the hall.
Pan Li was waiting for them! Seeing her son coming in first, she couldn't help but ask, "How was the trip?"
"Not bad, Mom, I'm a little tired, I'll go back to my room and take a shower."
"Okay, come down for dinner time." Pan Li gave a warning and sighed. For some reason, this son just wasn't close enough to her.
She turned her head and saw He Lingchu walking in with Gong Yuning. She immediately showed joy on her face, "Yuning, here you are, come in."
