Chapter 866: 866 They got engaged (7)
The epitome of cuteness, Gu Mengmeng blinked her eyes, instantly capturing the hearts of many.
"Cuteness overload..."
Seeing Gu Mengmeng made even those who didn’t want to get married consider tying the knot just to have a sweet daughter like her.
That blink made many forget to ask the following questions.
It took a while before someone regained their senses and asked, "Are you happy about Daddy getting engaged to your new mom?"
Jiujiu didn’t want to answer such a boring question, always maintaining the noble and chilly demeanor of Grandpa Jiu, while Cute, responsible for being adorable, faced the camera with an innocent and naive expression, asking in a puzzled and harmless manner, "Doesn’t... doesn’t someone become a new mom only after getting married?"
A slight smile.
Cute’s response stunned everyone.
Then they came to realize, right! Today is just an engagement, and even if they marry, they could still divorce, let alone just being engaged?
Whether she could become Mrs. Gu in the future was truly an unknown!
Cute’s seemingly innocent question struck at the deepest meaning of the situation.
Taking advantage of their stupefied moment, Second Treasure had already run through the crowd and was up the stairs.
"Daddy!" Cute ran to Gu Liancheng, looked up at him, and said, "Happy engagement!"
Cute’s face beamed with a radiant smile, genuinely looking like a heartfelt congratulations.
"You would have more fun playing with Fei’s mom."
Insisting on coming.
"Happy engagement." Jiujiu said indifferently.
"Cute," Shang Muxue leaned down, "Now I’ll be your new mom."
Cute, holding Gu Liancheng’s hands, leaned back and said to Shang Muxue with a giggly smile, "Well, who knows!"
Shang Muxue’s smile slowly froze.
Brat!
Once she becomes the lady of the Gu Family, we’ll see how she deals with her!
"Jiujiu—" She tried to cozy up to Jiujiu.
However, Jiujiu was clearly not interested in entertaining her and turned to walk away: "I’ll wait for you inside." He was still talking to Cute.
"Daddy, then we’ll wait for you inside! Come quickly!"
"Go on, follow your brother, don’t get lost."
"Got it!"
If it weren’t for the fact that Shang Muxue was standing next to him, the scene today would have been incredibly harmonious.
Gu Liancheng had been standing there for a long time and only showed a clear smile when he saw Second Treasure.
There will come a day, in the sacred marriage hall, where he will take her hand once again.
His phone suddenly rang, and it was Aunt Fang.
Why would Aunt Fang call at this time?
"Oh, it’s Jin Xiangbei!"
The shouts from the media crowd made Gu Liancheng look up and put his phone back in his pocket.
"And the Song Family!"
On occasions like today’s Gusang engagement, most of the influential people from Xicheng would attend, including those fostering good relations in the political sphere, usually arriving at the last moment.
Jin Xiangbei being dug out as Shang Qianxun’s ex-boyfriend meant that Gu Liancheng met her after him, and his current wife, Yao Ruoshui, was the other woman. The connections between the wealthy families were so extensive, the press didn’t know where to start.
Jin Xiangbei was also bombarded with questions, all related to Eleven.
But Jin Xiangbei didn’t wish to say another word.
Seeing they wouldn’t get anything substantial, the media had to let him go.
As he walked past Gu Liancheng, he paused, and the two didn’t make direct eye contact. But he was indeed speaking to Gu Liancheng, "If you truly wrong Eleven, I will never let you off."
