Chapter 183 Return of the property to its original owner
Upon hearing this, Madam Lan was taken aback.
Her gaze unconsciously drifted in the direction they had left, and around them. "Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?"
Mrs. Lin realized, "Yiran doesn't know yet, you didn't tell her?"
"What's there to say?"
Madam Lan lowered her voice and said, "Back then, the marriage between the two families was just a verbal agreement; everyone took it as a joke."
"But people might not take it as a joke."
Mrs. Lin said, "I heard that Ling Wu will be returning from studying abroad next month. The truth will eventually come out."
"...I invited you here today just for dinner. Don't say anything that will spoil the mood. Yiyi is pregnant, so don't let her hear anything. My daughter-in-law is the best. I only recognize her. If Lingwu comes back, she will come back. My son is devoted to Yiyi. A hundred Lingwus couldn't pull him back."
Madam Lan said, "I know you're worried about your youngest son, but don't get involved with Yi Yi... Alright, let's leave this topic at that, and stop talking about it."
Even so, Madam Lan still felt guilty.
They definitely didn't say that.
Toilet.
Su Yiran wiped the oil stain with warm water, and the color faded.
"It still won't get clean."
Lin Luoluo said, "I have a change of clothes. If you don't mind, you can go and change."
"No need to trouble yourself, it's nothing serious."
Su Yiran waved her hand, straightened her clothes, and looked up, only to meet a surprised gaze. She asked, somewhat puzzled, "What's wrong? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
"No, no."
Lin Luoluo shook her head. "But won't Aunt Lan say something if you dress like this?"
"Huh? Why?"
Su Yiran asked, turning to look at herself in the mirror, "This outfit is perfectly normal, it's not like it's anything revealing."
Speaking of revealing clothes, Madam Lan bought her quite a few. Whenever Gu Yanli saw those clothes, her brows would furrow tightly, which resulted in her wardrobe always mysteriously losing a few pieces of clothing.
Every time she questioned Gu Yanli, he would innocently shake his head and say he didn't know.
Lin Luoluo looked at her, "It's not that, it's just... you're Mrs. Gu, does Aunt Lan think your attire is inappropriate?"
"..."
Su Yiran frowned as she looked at the oil stains on her clothes.
That's really indecent.
but--
Why do you have this idea? Did you hear something?
"No... I have an older sister. She got married, and her in-laws are very strict with her. Everything she says and does has to be proper, or she'll get scolded... Once, when I was pregnant, my back ached, and I was scolded for bending over even slightly."
"..."
Su Yiran gasped. She looked down at her clothes, which were stained with oil and wrinkled. "Do you have a coat? I'll just wear one."
"Yes, please wait a moment."
Lin Luoluo ran to get her coat.
……
Two hours later, Su Yiran received a call from Gu Yanli.
"It's not over yet?"
Hearing the man's voice, Su Yiran turned to look ahead. The two were chatting happily, and she didn't want to disturb them.
"Not yet. Mom and her friend probably haven't seen each other in a long time, and they're quite happy."
"Never mind them, come back first."
"No, I..."
"Not full yet?"
"I'm full... I'm still a little stuffed."
"...Su Yiran, are you a three-year-old? You're already full and you're still eating."
Gu Yanli frowned. "Have Gu Jing bring you back. I'll speak to your mother for you."
Su Yiran hesitated, "Isn't this a bad idea?"
"She's not coming back anytime soon. She's been sleeping well during the day. Why are you messing around with her?"
Gu Yanli softened his voice, "Listen to me, it's getting late, let's go home first."
"……All right."
Su Yiran hung up the phone and wanted to tell Madam Lan, but the two of them were too busy to talk to her.
She had no choice but to signal to Lin Luoluo and leave the farm.
Return to Gu's house.
As soon as I got out of the car, I ran into Gu Yanli.
"Why aren't you sleeping yet?"
The man's gaze fell on her coat, and he frowned. "Are you cold?"
"what?"
Su Yiran glanced at him, realized what he meant, and explained, "No, I got some oil on my food, and it didn't look nice, so I grabbed a piece of clothing to cover it up."
So you're not hot?
"hot."
Su Yiran nodded obediently, but Gu Yanli ripped off her coat the next second. "You're still wearing it because it's hot. Pregnant women are already afraid of the heat. Aren't you afraid of making yourself sick from the heat?"
"But I need to protect your face."
"what?"
"Luo Luo said that one's words and actions are a matter of face for one's in-laws, and I..."
"You listen to what others say, but you won't listen to what I say? You dress like a madman."
Gu Yanli tossed the man's coat to Gu Jing, saying, "Return it to its rightful owner."
The man took Su Yiran's hand and led her to another place.
Su Yiran realized what was happening and turned to look at Gu Jing, "Oh right, wash it clean before sending it back."
"Yes."
Gu Jing nodded.
Su Yiran was being led by the hand by Gu Yanli as they walked into the darkness. She frowned and asked, "Where are you taking me?"
"Dismemberment."
"..."
Su Yiran rolled her eyes at him.
It was nighttime, so Gu Yanli couldn't see it.
There was a subtle undercurrent in his silence, which he could easily sense: "Don't curse me behind my back. Anyone who curses me will be met with my wrath."
“Bounce bounce!”
Su Yiran pouted.
"Do not talk."
Gu Yanli said softly, placing the glass jar in her hand and gently lifting the black cloth on top, instantly brightening her vision.
firefly!
"This is……"
Su Yiran's shocked expression was evident. Gu Yanli said, "Open the lid."
She obediently did as she was told. In the silence, fireflies slowly flew out of the jar and soared into the sky.
It illuminated an area.
"Wow……"
"looks great."
How did you get so many fireflies?
Fireflies are rarely seen here, let alone so many at once.
"Want to know?"
"think."
"I'm not going to tell you."
"..."
Su Yiran twitched the corner of her mouth.
Whether she tells me or not, she's not really interested in knowing.
After walking around outside and digesting a lot, Su Yiran took a shower and fell asleep as soon as she lay down on the bed, without even drying her hair.
"Yiyi..."
When Gu Yanli returned to his room and saw this scene, he sighed helplessly and helped the person up.
"Hmm... Don't move, I want to sleep."
"Your hair isn't dry yet...you'll catch a cold."
Gu Yanli held her in his arms, took a hairdryer, and gently dried her long hair.
Su Yiran was so sleepy that she couldn't stay awake any longer. Her head drooped, and she nestled into the man's arms.
"Yiyi?"
Gu Yanli gently called her name, but she wouldn't wake up. He dried her hair and put her on the bed.
"Good night."
Gu Yanli turned around, his gaze falling on the bag she had casually tossed on the table. Just as he was about to take it back and put it away, a faint red light came into view.
