Her Clingy Husband

Proofread by Yu Bing

“Recently I also hear that you run the company very well. You are more capable than your uncles are. I hope that in the future, you can come home more often so that we can have more communication.” The old man says slowly and softly, but the measured pace of words gives him a sense of disputable authority.

Gu Zechen frowns as he hears that.

His two young uncles, who don’t feel embarrassed, continue. “Zechen, your grandfather is right, and you rarely come back these years. Grandfather misses you very much.”

Gu Jingyang, another uncle, also says. “Yes, grandpa is getting old, so he wants you to be around. You should come back more often when you have time.”

Gu Zechen nods his head and agrees.

People around the table exchange their glances with each other. They each have their own things on their minds.

An Rong is also there. “Zechen, pour some tea for your grandpa.”

Then Gu Zechen pours tea for the old man as is told with reverence. The old man strokes his beard, watching him with smile.

“Among the younger generations, it’s Zechen whom I am most satisfied with. You guys should work harder. Don’t just play and squander our family’s wealth.”

When the old man is busy lecturing on everyone, Lan Qianqian can’t help complaining in a low voice, “My daughter doesn’t need to work so hard.”

Miao Cuiqing, who is serving on the side, says. “Dad, I get it and I will talk with Gu Lang.”

“Grandpa, you’re so partial to my uncle. Why can’t I match him?” Gu Lang comes in with a grunt, yelling in discontent.

“Lang.” Miao Cuiqing is also relieved once she finds that her son is fine.

“Hey, you come back later than your uncle. Did you hang out with your fair-feather friends again?” Apparently the old man is scolding him, but everyone inside the room knows he adores him.

Gu Zechen is eating in the way that makes people present feel what happens in the room has nothing to do with him. Gu Lang walks forward, greeting everyone and then puts a stool next to Gu Zechen.

“Where’s my aunt?” Gu Lang suddenly mentions Su Ni.

The room suddenly becomes very quiet, the atmosphere of happiness and harmony gone. Gu Lang subconsciously covers his mouth, knowing that he has said the wrong thing. He raises his voice and says. “I have heard that aunt’s health is not good. How about her after coming back from hospital?”

Gu Zechen becomes relaxed and nods. “She is upstairs now.”

An Rong is shocked, for she has found that Su Ni looks weird. But now there are too many people, she doesn’t ask.

Gu Lang nods, knowing that Gu Zechen hasn’t told everyone about the matter yet. He says. “That’s good.”NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

“I just meet Su Ni a few times. She’s such a delicate woman. Even her grandpa comes, she will not come down and still stay in the room. Is she really that sick?” Lan Qianqian bears a grudge against Gu Zechen and naturally won’t give up this opportunity to beat back, for Gu Zechen mocks at her before, which makes her very angry.

“Aunt’s health is really not good. Why don’t you come upstairs to have a look? You just complain here.” Gu Lang laughs and helps Gu Zechen respond.

Miao Cuiqing helplessly stares at her son. He always speaks so naively and indiscriminately. So she continues. “Su Ni is sick, and I afraid that she hasn’t eaten dinner yet.”

“It is difficult to meet my granddaughter-in-law. I’m afraid I’ve even forgotten what she looks like. You should not spoil her too much.” The old man, who doesn’t utter a word, suddenly speaks. Gu Zechen frowns and puts his chopsticks gently down.

The old man looks at Gu Zechen and continues meaningfully, “Recently I heard that you’ve offended many people because of Su Ni, and even the master of the Yin family is angry with you. Yin family is our friends for generations, if you go too far, how can I face them in the future?”

Gu Zechen hears that and sneers in his heart. Finally, he doesn’t beat around the bush and comes to the point. This is exactly the reason why he comes here today.

“This time you come here to be their lobbyist, right?” Gu Zechen stares at the old man. Although Gu Zechen says with an unaffected tone, the old man still feels embarrassed and begins coughing.

An Rong reminds Gu Zechen. “Zechen, talk nicely to grandpa.”

Gu Zechen is cold and says mercilessly. “If grandpa comes here to see my mom and me, I will be happy. But if you have another purpose, you have to excuse me.”

Gu Zechen says and is about to leave. An Rong sees that and walks a few steps forward, for she doesn’t want Gu Zechen to lose his manners. “Zechen, even if grandpa pleads for Yin family, he has his reason. You should sit down first.”

“There’s nothing to say about the Yin family.” Gu Zechen insists and doesn’t care at all.

Miao Cuiqing motions Gu Lang to sit by her side, but Gu Lang also pretends not to see that. Although he doesn’t know about what happened before, today he saw how Su Ni is stuck in danger. They almost died with Yin Tian Qi. It is impossible to forgive Yin family. Now, Gu Lang is worried that Gu Zechen can’t hold back his temper, which will break his relation with grandpa completely.

“Uncle, why don’t you go upstairs to take a look at Auntie first? Auntie is waiting for you.” Gu Lang lowers his voice and whispers.

Gu Zechen’s face is gloomy, and his mouth is stiff. It is a silent confrontation and no one wants to yield first.

“Bastard!” Suddenly, the old man slaps the table, which makes Su Ni who is just dressed shocked and then she immediately comes closer to the window to have a look.

The old man stands up with Miao Cuiqing’s help and uses one trembling hand to point to Gu Zechen, “Gu Zechen, you are the descendent of Gu family. What did that woman tell you? Friendship between Yin family will be destroyed by you today.”

“Grandpa, calm down.”

The old man is angry, which makes other people panic. Gu Lang helps him up and whispers. “Maybe … Little Uncle has his reasons for doing this. Why don’t we listen to his explanation first?”

Gu Lang immediately lays his eyes on Gu Zechen, hoping he can say a few words.

“You are just a bastard who is not educated well. I should teach you a lesson for your dead father today!” The old man says, raising his stick and pounding it on Gu Zechen and the stick falls on Gu Zechen’s arm. Gu Zechen grits his teeth without furrowing his brow.
