Chapter 1158: Chapter 1158: Are You Coming Home with Me?
Helian Xi was feeling relieved, but she knew that there would definitely be a rift between Gu Jin Yan and the old lady now.
She still preferred being this straightforward.
All that hemming and hawing, dragging things out—wasn’t her principle.
She had no intention of wronging herself just to make someone else happy!
It wasn’t like that person was important to her anyway.
Helian Xi had just gotten into the car and was about to leave when Gu Jin Yan had already chased after her and opened the car door before she started the engine.
"Why aren’t you staying with that ’critically ill’ grandma of yours? What are you doing in my car?" Helian Xi showed Gu Jin Yan no pleasant expression.
"Xiao Xi, so the only reason you were nice to me today was to expose Grandma?" Gu Jin Yan asked.
"It’s not wrong if you want to understand it that way." Although she had originally planned to hold out until the wedding day.
But she found it too hard.
For her, it was just too hard.
"Xiao Xi, I’m... I’m sorry." Gu Jin Yan had already understood that Grandma would never like Helian Xi.
In the past, she had only been wary of the Helian Family.
Now that she’d been exposed, she was probably panicking too!
The old lady, however, wasn’t panicking; she didn’t think Helian Xi would actually do anything to her.
But what she didn’t know was that this time, Helian Xi was dead set; she would no longer save her any face just because she was Gu Jin Yan’s grandmother.
"Sorry? Since we got married, how many times have I heard that from you?" Helian Xi arched a brow and smiled. "Gu Jin Yan, let me tell you, I mean it—three months from now, don’t even think about having a wedding with me."
"Then we’ll hold the wedding after you graduate. This time, I’ll plan it properly." Gu Jin Yan had actually wanted to wait until then too.
"Too late. I’m already completely disappointed in you. The moment you thought your grandma was critically ill, you couldn’t wait to stick to her side twenty‑four hours a day. When your son was sick, you didn’t care—you still ran over there just because your grandma said one word.
If you’d put even a little effort into the wedding, I wouldn’t have ended up like this. Unfortunately, I was wrong. You only cared about your grandma. You didn’t even go take a look at the wedding venue, so you have no idea how many things in there are exactly what I hate the most.
You might as well fulfill your grandma’s wish and marry that ’sworn little sister’ of yours from today. After all, the word ’sworn’ can be used in all sorts of ways. Who knows what you two have been doing these days."
Gu Jin Yan’s head was pounding. Why did there always have to be so many people sabotaging his relationship with Helian Xi?
And they all happened to be on his side.
"Xiao Xi, it’s my fault. This time, no matter who it is, I won’t change my mind." Gu Jin Yan did love Helian Xi deeply; it was just that this love inevitably had its lapses.
"You’ve said that more than once." Helian Xi looked at him. "The one I liked was the original Gu Jin Yan—quarreling and bickering with me, fooling around with a grin on your face, but always standing on my side, that Big Bad Yan. But after we got married, that man disappeared. I can’t find him anymore."
Helian Xi naturally loved Gu Jin Yan too, but after the marriage, there always seemed to be so many things on his side.
"Xiao Xi, my feelings for you have never changed. In this lifetime, I’ve only ever liked one woman—you." Gu Jin Yan did get annoyed, but never with Helian Xi.
"Mm. I believe you."
Helian Xi did believe that Gu Jin Yan loved her, but it was also true that she didn’t want to deal with him right now.
She even...
"I’m going home, back to the Helian Family. Are you coming with me?"
