Chapter 153: My Wife
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
When Grandma Gu saw them holding hands, she deliberately teased them. “The heater is on. Nianyao won’t get cold.”
Hearing Grandma Gu’s teasing, Meng Nianyao moved again, trying to pull her hand out. However, Gu Wencheng didn’t want to let go at all. He smiled and said, “Grandma, I’m not holding Nianyao’s hand because I’m afraid of her getting cold. Since she’s my wife, I can hold her hand whenever I want.”
Meng Nianyao’s ears turned red when she heard Gu Wencheng’s words.
Grandma Gu burst into laughter when she heard that. Her mood improved even more. She nodded.” Yes, you’re right.”
The blush crept from the tip of her ears to Meng Nianyao’s neck and then to her cheeks. Her face was as red as a tomato. She and Gu Wencheng were rarely so intimate in front of the elders, so she was even shyer than usual when Grandma teased them.
Meng Nianyao moved her hand. Surprisingly, the consultant didn’t hold it tightly like before, so Meng Nianyao easily pulled her hand out.
Meng Nianyao had just raised her hand when Grandma Gu saw the ring on her finger. The smile on her face widened. “I was wondering why Wencheng couldn’t bear to let go. Turns out that it was because of a proposal.” She turned to look at Grandpa Gu and then at Meng Nianyao.
Meng Nianyao couldn’t hide the smile on her face when she heard Grandma Gu’s words, and recalled the scene when Gu Wencheng proposed to her in the afternoon.
“Nianyao.” Grandma Gu reached out to hold Meng Nianyao’s hand and pat it. She looked at the ring on it and nodded. “Not bad. It’s really beautiful.”
Meng Nianyao looked up at Gu Wencheng and thought of something. She deliberately glared at him. He deliberately clenched his fists so that she wouldn’t break free. He used so much strength just to make Grandma Gu notice the ring on her finger!
Grandma Gu followed Meng Nianyao’s line of sight and looked at Gu Wencheng. She smiled, as if telling him that he had done well. Gu Wencheng raised his eyebrows at Grandma Gu when Meng Nianyao lowered her head.
The more Grandma Gu looked at it, the happier she became.
After accompanying Grandma Gu for a while, Meng Nianyao and Gu Wencheng went upstairs. As soon as they reached the room, Gu Wencheng pressed Meng Nianyao against the wall, holding the back of her head with one hand and her hand with the other. Meng Nianyao was startled and quickly realized what Gu Wencheng was going to do. As soon as Gu Wencheng’s lips fell on hers, she pressed them against each other and the two of them kissed passionately.
The lights outside the window were bright. When someone knocked on the door, Meng Nianyao was still asleep, her hair disheveled. Gu Wencheng tucked his hair behind her ear, leaned over, and kissed her on the side of her face before getting up to leave.
Auntie Yang stood at the door. “It’s time to eat. Where’s Nianyao?” she asked.
“Nianyao is a little tired and is still sleeping. Let Grandpa and Grandma eat first. I’ll sleep with her for a while.” Gu Wencheng said.
“Are you alright?” Meng Nianyao’s health hadn’t been good, so Auntie Yang thought she wasn’t feeling well.
Gu Wencheng shook his head. “It’s okay. Don’t worry. Just let Grandpa and Grandma know.”
Auntie Yang hesitated.
“She really is fine,” Gu Wencheng said.
After the door closed, Gu Wencheng returned to bed and continued to sleep with Meng Nianyao in his arms.
On the eve of the Lunar New Year, the house was very lively. Although it was snowing, the weather was not bad; the weak sunlight shone on people, making them feel lazy.
Meng Nianyao and Grandma Gu were busy in the kitchen from early in the morning until it was night. The lights outside were dim. It was a beautiful sight.
“Wencheng, did you call your parents? Why aren’t they here yet?” It was almost time for the New Year’s Eve dinner, but Gu Guanping and Lin Ping had not arrived yet. Grandma Gu was a little anxious, afraid that something had happened to them on the way.
“Grandma,” Meng Nianyao comforted, “Auntie and Uncle might have been delayed by something. Don’t worry.”
Gu Wencheng hesitated for a moment. Just as he was about to make a call, he heard the sound of a car in the courtyard. Shortly after, Gu Guanping and Lin Ping walked in.
“Why don’t you two just come back tomorrow?” Grandpa Gu asked coldly.
“Mom and Dad, I’m sorry,” Gu Guanping and Lin Ping apologized hurriedly.
“Uncle, Auntie,” Meng Nianyao greeted them.
Gu Guanping smiled and nodded at her.
Lin Ping glanced at Meng Nianyao and hummed lightly.
Auntie Yang came out of the kitchen and asked, “Should the dishes be served now?” Meng Nianyao and Grandma Gu had just finished cooking dinner, so the food was still warm.
“I’ll go help.” Meng Nianyao wanted to help out in the kitchen, but was stopped by Grandma Gu. “No need. Nianyao, this is your first time coming home for the New Year. It’s bad enough that you were working with me the whole day. Let Auntie Yang and the others do it now..”
