Chapter 385: Family Reunion
Translator: End less Fantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
In the next few days, Guo Miao was not quite right. She was always in a daze.
Su Mian’s appearance reminded her of too many things from before. Looking at her father and brother, she always had a surreal feeling.
Was she really back to square one? Could she really protect her brother and father now?
Guo Fu looked at Guo Miao for a few days and finally couldn’t hold it in any longer. He asked during dinner, “Miao Miao, did you encounter something that didn’t go your way?”
Guo Miao raised her head from the bowl. She looked very tired. She wanted to appear more natural, but the more she tried, the more weary she seemed.
“Actually, I’ve always wanted to tell you that if you feel tired, you can rest for a while. I can support this family now.” Guo Fu patted Guo Miao’s shoulder.
Guo Miao was no longer the ignorant child from Dongshan. Although she was only 17 years old, she was already a capable adult.
“Dad, don’t worry, I’m fine.” Guo Miao sighed.
“I can tell that you don’t want me to worry, that’s why you say that.” Guo Fu looked at Guo Miao with concern. “But you’re my daughter. How could 1 not tell that something was wrong with you? If there’s anything you can’t take anymore, just tell me. 1’11 help you solve it.”
No matter how well Guo Miao hid it, Guo Fu was still a family member after all. He would have sensed it no matter what.
“Are you angry because I’m going to register our marriage?” Guo Fu asked tentatively.
Guo Miao shook her head. “Of course not…”
Halfway through her sentence, she realized that Guo Fu had just said that he would register their marriage.
Guo Miao suddenly looked up at Guo Fu. “Dad, are you going to register your marriage with Aunt Lu Xi?”
Guo Xu, who was doing his homework in the bedroom, also rushed out. “Dad, are you really going to get married to Aunt Lu Xi?”
The children’s gazes made Guo Fu blush. He smiled embarrassedly. “Yes, I’m going to marry Aunt Lu Xi. Aunt Lu Xi is so old, she can’t really be without a companion.”
“This is amazing! Why would 1 object?” Guo Miao said with a smile.
Guo Miao had always hoped that Guo Fu could pursue his own happiness. Now that Guo Fu was going to register his marriage with Aunt Lu Xi, this was the best news.
“Dad, 1 also support your marriage. After that, Sis and I will go to university. You won’t be so lonely. Now that you have Aunt Lu Xi to accompany you, you can enjoy your own time!” Xuxu agreed.
“Do you think I’m letting your biological mother down?” Guo Fu asked softly.
He was a little worried. After all, his ex-wife passed away because she gave birth to Xuxu. The two children must have had deep feelings for their mother.
“Dad, Mom has been gone for so many years. 1 think she also wants you to be happy. Besides, Aunt Lu Xi is also a very good person,” Guo Miao said with a smile.
The sudden good news made her mood a little better. She could temporarily forget Su Mian’s matter.
“Then, when are you going to hold the banquet with Aunt Lu Xi? I’ll book a hotel!” Guo Miao asked.
Guo Fu was a little embarrassed. “Before the end of the year. What your Aunt Lu Xi and I mean is that we don’t need to make a big deal out of it. We’ll just invite our relatives and friends to the restaurant and set up a table or two.”
“Don’t worry, leave it to me,” Guo Miao said.
She planned to go to Ningxiang Restaurant to cater food for Guo Fu and Lu Xi.
“I can help Aunt Lu Xi choose a wedding dress! You can also help Dad choose a suit!” Xuxu smiled.
Just as they were discussing the wedding, Guo Fu’s phone suddenly rang. He didn’t recognize the number calling
Guo Fu pressed the answer button. As he listened, his expression became more and more solemn.
“How much did you say?” Guo Fu asked.
Looking at Guo Fu’s expression, Guo Miao and Guo Xu looked at each other, not understanding what had happened.
“Alright, I’ll deliver the things as promised. Don’t hurt them.” Guo Fu put down the phone and stood up immediately. He put on his clothes and prepared to go out.
Guo Miao rushed to the door.” Dad, what happened?”
“Your Aunt Lu Xi and Lu Ning have been kidnapped. The kidnappers want us to bring a million dollars over. 1’11 go get the money now and then go find the kidnappers..”
