Chapter 1148: Chapter 1148: Reunion at Uncle Gu’s Birthday (4)
Although Zhang Yuexin was surprised that Shu Kaiqi would come, she thought about Shu Kaiqi’s family background, and her eyes brightened.
She thought that if her daughter couldn’t marry Cheng Junnan, Shu Kaiqi would be a good choice.
The last time Shu Kaiqi visited her husband at the hospital, she specifically looked into Shu Kaiqi’s background and discovered that the Shu family is rooted in medicine, and Shu Kaiqi’s father is the director of Renmin Hospital.
"Little Shu is here, please sit, please sit!"
"Jun Nan, you should sit too, why are you standing?"
Cheng Junnan and Shu Kaiqi exchanged slight smiles and sat separately, adding another person to the private room.
Because of Shu Kaiqi’s arrival, Gu Yunyun had to stop the previous topic temporarily, and Gu Qingfeng did not bring it up again but instead chatted with Shu Kaiqi and Cheng Junnan.
Both Shu Kaiqi and Cheng Junnan are gentle individuals, but Cheng Junnan appears more composed and elegant, like a piece of unpolished jade. Shu Kaiqi, though also gentle, has a bit more youthful vigour, resembling a tall pine tree.
Since the last encounter with Shu Kaiqi, Gu Yunyun had not seen him again, and now seeing Shu Kaiqi here, Gu Yunyun’s eyes flickered.
Thinking that Shu Kaiqi was probably coming for Mu Tiantian, she couldn’t help but curve her lips into a slight smile.
"I didn’t expect you, Kaiqi, to come today; earlier I thought it was Tian Tian who arrived!"
"But I guess she’s very busy. Yesterday my father personally called her, and she agreed to come today, yet she’s not here until now."
Cheng Junnan and Shu Kaiqi were perceptive and could clearly understand the implication in Gu Yunyun’s words, yet they only smiled blandly.
Shu Kaiqi smiled gently, his voice amiable.
"Perhaps she really has something to attend to; otherwise, it wouldn’t be like Tian Tian’s usual habit!"
Cheng Junnan also nodded with a smile, agreeing with Shu Kaiqi.
"Indeed, from what I know about Tian Tian, if she truly couldn’t come, she would definitely call to inform. Given the situation, she might be on her way."
As soon as Cheng Junnan finished speaking, the door to the private room was pushed open again.
Gu Yunyun was still envious that both Cheng Junnan and Shu Kaiqi were speaking in favor of Mu Tiantian when she saw Mu Tiantian, wearing a bright red coat, and Bai Chenyao, dressed in a black suit, appear at the doorway.
"Uncle, I’m sorry I’m late!"
Mu Tiantian said, quickly walking over to Gu Qingfeng’s side.
"Uncle, how long have you been here? Is your health better?"
Seeing Mu Tiantian, Gu Qingfeng felt a warmth in his heart, thinking that his firmness in supporting his niece was the right decision.
Both Cheng Junnan and Shu Kaiqi had their eyes on Mu Tiantian at first; when they noticed the indifferent expression of Bai Chenyao standing beside Mu Tiantian, their six eyes instantly met.
Bai Chenyao followed Mu Tiantian and walked over. Although his expression remained indifferent, his tone was relatively cordial.
"Uncle, we’re late!"
Gu Qingfeng understood well how busy people like Bai Chenyao must be, making it a blessing that he could come domestically at all.
"No, no, knowing you’re busy, you actually didn’t have to come!"
Facing Bai Chenyao, Gu Qingfeng still felt somewhat uneasy.
"After calling Tian Tian yesterday, I kind of regretted it, considering Tian Tian is frail, and it’s freezing outside."
Zhang Yuexin listened and quickly spoke to add.
"Your uncle truly misses Tian Tian, especially since she hasn’t sat down for a meal with us since returning from abroad. So, with your uncle’s birthday, I asked him to call you to come and eat together."
