Chapter 371 Family

As soon as the words fell, a hurried figure appeared outside the door.

Xi Jinya raised her eyebrows: "Uncle is here."

Gu Huan walked in hurriedly, taking off his coat at the same time. His face was still stained with coldness, and he walked into the warm room and let out a soft breath.

Facing the looks of several women in the living room, he smiled and said, "Am I late again?"

Mrs. Xi snorted coldly and said in a strange tone: "I ask every year and I am late every year, so it is better not to ask."

Gu Huan quickly apologized and smiled.

He suddenly caught a glimpse of Qi Wu out of the corner of his eye. Looking at that face, he suddenly froze: ".Is she Qi Wu?"

Mrs. Xi didn't notice the stunned expression on Gu Huan's face, and enthusiastically pulled Qi Wu over: "Yes, we have met your niece-in-law now. Where is your meeting gift, why don't you bring it out quickly!"

“Oh, yes, hello, I am Jin Si’s uncle Gu Huan.”

 After hearing this from Mrs. Xi, Gu Huan came to his senses and handed over the greeting gift that he had prepared.

 “I was too busy before, but now I officially meet you.”

Gu Huan stared at Qi Wu closely, and when he saw her accepting the gift after saying thank you, he said out of nowhere: "Do you have any relatives?"

As soon as these words came out, the living room fell into silence.

 Mrs. Xi and Xi Jinya looked at each other and secretly sighed.

Jin Si had told them about Qi Wu’s situation before. Now that Gu Huan asked, wouldn’t it mean that he didn’t mention which pot should be opened?

Mrs. Xi raised her head and glared at Gu Huan.

Qi Wu shook his head lightly: "Not yet."

".temporary?"

Gu Huan was too focused and didn't notice Mrs. Xi's eyes that almost made a hole in him.

Qi Wu: “Because I have never met my parents, and I don’t know if I have any relatives.”

Gu Huan finally reacted and said apologetically: "I'm sorry."

Qi Wu shook his head.

Mrs. Xi immediately said: "Why don't you hurry up and get into the kitchen."

Gu Huan realized that he was in the wrong and responded quickly.

 After he left, Mrs. Xi immediately nervously said to Qi Wu, "Don't worry, he doesn't understand anything!"

"It doesn't matter."

Qi Wu recalled Gu Huan's surprise and flash of disbelief just now, and began to think slightly.

 The New Year's Eve dinner was served quickly. Several grown men in the family took part in the meal. It was basically all hard dishes. More than 20 dishes were placed on the table, which was extremely sumptuous.

Jin Si took Qi Wu and sat down, glanced at Gu Huan on the table, and asked softly: "Have you met uncle?"

Qi Wu nodded: "Yeah."

When everyone was at the table, Mr. Xi stood up and glanced at the other people on the table. His majestic eyes paused slightly when he touched Qi Wu and Jin Si.

“Ahem, welcome Qi Wu to our family.”

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere group represented by Xi Huanran instantly ignited the lively atmosphere on the dining table.

 Jin Si’s hand resting under the dining table held Qi Wu’s hand.

 When she lowered her eyes and looked over, the corners of his lips raised happily: "We are a family."

Qi Wu's eyes couldn't help but have gentle waves, and he shook gently: "Yeah."

 After the New Year's Eve dinner, they sat in the spacious living room, each occupying a corner.

Gu Huan was sitting next to Mrs. Xi. He had been secretly observing the situation at Qi Wu's side with his peripheral vision. He noticed his nephew's hostility and withdrew his gaze.

"sister."

 He called Mrs. Xi softly.

Mrs. Xi turned around impatiently: "What are you doing?"

 “Qi Wu. What’s going on?”

 “Now you know how to ask?”

Mrs. Xi glanced at him, and when Gu Huan smiled apologetically, she spoke compassionately.

　　When mentioning Qi Wu, Mrs. Xi couldn't help but feel a hint of distress in her eyes: "This child's parents died young and he was tricked by his uncle and aunt. It's not easy for him to grow up so healthy."

Gu Huan's tone was stagnant: "Uncle and aunt?"

  “Not related to her by blood.”

Mrs. Xi rolled her eyes and said, "Jin Si went to investigate. Her biological father is a child picked up by that family."

Just as Gu Huan was about to ask again, he was stopped by Mrs. Xi's disgusting words: "Why are you asking so many questions? Find a wife as soon as possible!"

ˆ “.”

Gu Huan suddenly didn’t dare to ask.

 He knew that he would become the final target.

Jin Si sat next to Qi Wu for a while, then was lured away by Fu Shichen's eyes, and the two of them walked to the kitchen together.

Jin Si picked up the unwashed strawberries on the kitchen table, took them to the sink and washed them slowly.

"What's up."

 Fu Shichen’s lips twitched: “Does Qi Wu agree to that parent-child variety show?”

Jin Si paused while washing his strawberry hands.

 He raised his head and glanced at Fu Shichen, then lowered his head to wash the strawberries seriously: "Did Chaoqi participate in the investment?"

“Not only participated, but also the largest investor.”

“You want to go with my sister, but you don’t know how to tell her, and then you want to go through me and Qi Wu?”

Jin Si hit the nail on the head.

The corner of his mouth raised sarcastically: "It's not your style to be so timid, brother-in-law, you were so tough and decisive before."

 Fu Shichen: “.”

 Just poke him where it hurts, right?

Jin Si: "Don't blame me for not reminding you. My sister has been resting for too long and seems to be planning to go abroad to visit Hannah recently."

 Fu Shichen rubbed his brows with a headache: "Of course I know, so this is not wise-"

 After a second's pause, he suddenly raised his head: "Is it possible that Qi Wu didn't agree?"

"No."

Jin Si shook his head, "Still waiting for Su Baobao's opinion."

".That boy is so attached to Qi Wu, I guess he can only ask for it."

 Fu Shichen muttered.

As he finished speaking, he met Jin Si's sinister eyes: "I forgot to tell you about my brother-in-law, what are you going to do with those two?"

ˆ “.”

Those two naturally refer to Fu Chengan and Xi Huanran.

 Parent-child variety shows, naturally cannot leave them behind.

But with Xi Huanran's fearless appearance that day, coupled with her gossipy personality, I'm afraid Fu Shichen's background will be almost wiped out by her.

The conversation between the two finally failed to reach a conclusion.

Jin Si walked out carrying a basket of washed strawberries.

Xi Huanran saw what he was holding and immediately jumped up happily: "It's strawberry!"

Jin Si walked around her, picked up a strawberry and handed it to Qi Wu's lips, and then put the basket of strawberries into Xi Huanran's arms.

 “Is it sweet?”

 He sat down, his brows stretched lazily.

Qi Wu chewed slowly, and his lips were stained with a trace of ripples of crimson color.

 She nodded: "Sweet."

Jin Si glanced at Fu Shichen who was following him. He sat next to Xi Jinya and winked at himself.

Jin Si clicked his tongue and looked away.

“My brother-in-law wants to participate in that parent-child variety show with my sister, but he doesn’t dare to say it out loud. If I ask my sister to tell me, will I just follow his old ways? If he opens his mouth, will my sister disagree?”

"Um?"

Qi Wu raised his eyes in surprise, "So he needs help?"

"Maybe."

Jin Si lowered his shoulder nonchalantly.
