Chapter 188: The Ugly Son-in-Law Meets the Parents 16
Seeing Gu Siyu’s displeased expression, the servant quickly shifted the blame.
Gu Siyu glared at the servants helplessly, tidied herself up, and turned to leave.
I don’t know what’s been up with my mother lately; she’s always coming up with unreliable methods.
When Gu Siyu appeared before Bei Ming Hao Chen again, Bei Ming Hao Chen embraced her without a word.
Heaven knows Bei Ming Hao Chen had been doubting if he was dreaming since he woke up this morning. Why would he dream that Gu Siyu agreed to be with him?
Bei Ming Hao Chen found it unbelievable and felt anxious all morning, waiting for Gu Siyu to arrive.
Gu Siyu was caught off guard by the embrace, her heart skipping a beat. Why was this guy so excited?
“Yu Yu, I’m not dreaming, am I?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen pulled Gu Siyu away, his eyes fixed on her intently, afraid of missing even the slightest subtle expression.
“Yu Yu, I love you. Thank you.”
Seeing that Gu Siyu didn’t deny it, Bei Ming Hao Chen was incredibly excited. He wasn’t dreaming; he wasn’t dreaming. Everything was real.
It was already ten minutes later when Bei Ming Hao Chen calmed down.
Gu Siyu was helpless. She waited for him to compose himself, and then they went out for breakfast together.
They went to a nearby restaurant. While waiting for their food, Bei Ming Hao Chen’s gaze was fixed on Gu Siyu as he asked, “Yu Yu, are you going to take me to your home?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen was exceptionally attentive to this matter, as they were his future father-in-law and mother-in-law, after all.
Gu Siyu hesitated, wanting to speak but stopping herself.
Her stammering caused Bei Ming Hao Chen to frown.
“What’s wrong? You don’t want me to go? It’s fine, then I won’t go.”
“Anyway, it’s you I’m looking for.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s words were sincere and full of honesty. Gu Siyu was touched and didn’t want to deceive him at all, but her mother’s words echoed in her ears.
Gu Siyu gritted her teeth and, hardening her heart, said, “I’m sorry, I lied to you.”
“Do you know why I never told you about my family situation?”
“Because I was afraid you would look down on me.”
Gu Siyu, afraid she wouldn’t be able to bear deceiving him any longer, blurted out everything in one go.
Bei Ming Hao Chen raised an eyebrow.
He hadn’t expected Gu Siyu to suddenly say this, leaving him completely unprepared.
“What’s wrong?”
“What nonsense are you talking about?”
Bei Ming Hao Chen reached out and took the hand of the girl sitting opposite him. It was so soft, making him not want to let go.
Gu Siyu frowned and continued, “You are the heir of the Bei Ming Family, but I’m so pathetic. My family isn’t as good as you imagine.”
Gu Siyu told Bei Ming Hao Chen that her parents were just servants of the Spanish Royal Family, with ordinary identities, and she was merely the daughter of a royal servant.
She had no noble status whatsoever.
What Gu Siyu said sounded as if it were true.
This was because her mother had told her that morning that if she was worried Bei Ming Hao Chen only liked her for her appearance, she could test him.
And indeed, right after Gu Siyu finished speaking, Bei Ming Hao Chen was stunned and remained silent for a long time.
Gu Siyu’s heart sank. Did he really look down on her because of her identity?
This realization made Gu Siyu very unhappy. She had always thought Bei Ming Hao Chen wasn’t someone who valued status, but now…
“So what? It’s you I like.”
“Since my mother said you were good and that I shouldn’t miss out, it means you must be very outstanding.”
“After spending so much time with you, even though you’re violent, disobedient, and annoying, I have to say, you’ve truly captured my heart.”
“Gu Siyu, I don’t care about your identity. I like you.”
Bei Ming Hao Chen’s passionate gaze fell upon Gu Siyu. In that moment, Gu Siyu felt a sense of elation. She hadn’t misheard; Bei Ming Hao Chen said he didn’t dislike her.
“Gu Siyu, don’t you think you deserve to be punished?”
Suddenly, Bei Ming Hao Chen spoke.
“Huh?”
Gu Siyu was bewildered and confused. Hadn’t she done anything wrong?
“Is that what you think of me? Am I that kind of person?”
“Don’t you think it’s too much for you to think that way about me?”
“Therefore, you shall be punished!”
Bei Ming Hao Chen said.
Gu Siyu pouted, “Punished with what!”
“Punished by… calling me ‘Brother Chen’ ten times and saying ‘I love you’!”
Pfft…
Can he be any more shameless? Gu Siyu was truly speechless, finding him more outrageous by the day!
“Brother Chen, I love you!” Gu Siyu felt she couldn’t say such mushy words.
The restaurant waiter brought their breakfast, and Gu Siyu wanted to use food to distract herself.
“Cough, cough,” she choked from eating too quickly.
“Eat slowly. I’m not in a hurry for you to call me.”
“Here, be good, eat more. You’ll have more energy to call out after you’re full.”
Call out…
Hearing this, Gu Siyu inexplicably felt a double meaning!
As they ate breakfast, Gu Siyu was both amused and exasperated. Bei Ming Hao Chen was attentive to her feelings the entire time, eating very little himself. Other customers nearby saw this and expressed their envy.
“Oh my god, darling, look, that man is so considerate.”
“Mmm, I envy this kind of boyfriend. I want one too.”
“Ew, that handsome guy is feeding her breakfast himself. Ying Ying Ying, this is too much PDA!”
Bei Ming Hao Chen completely ignored them, focusing solely on his little girlfriend.
“They were all saying they envy you just now.”
After finishing breakfast, Bei Ming Hao Chen asked leisurely.
“Really? I didn’t pay much attention.”
Gu Siyu chuckled.
“So, now that you’re full and satisfied, shouldn’t you fulfill the punishment?”
Damn it, how could he still remember this?
Gu Siyu covered her head, wanting to storm off, but there was no opportunity.
Bei Ming Hao Chen picked her up and left the restaurant, holding her tightly in his arms the entire way. Gu Siyu was like a boneless, walking zombie. Whatever Bei Ming Hao Chen said, she would just give an awkward smile and a simple two-word reply.
“See, everyone is staring at us.”
“Yu Yu, if you don’t want to become a public figure, then…”
Before Bei Ming Hao Chen could finish, Gu Siyu pouted and sighed, “Alright, alright, you’re bullying me.”
“Brother Chen, I like you.”
Saying “love” felt a bit awkward, so Gu Siyu modified the lines herself. But it was okay; Bei Ming Hao Chen was still very satisfied. It was truly fortunate to hear Gu Siyu say it for the second time.
“Nine more times to go!”
Bei Ming Hao Chen smiled.
Gu Siyu: *slams fist* (︶﹏︶) What is all this? Is he even human? Fine, he wants me to say it ten times. There are so many people coming and going, it’s so embarrassing.
“Um, should I take you to my home?”
Gu Siyu changed the topic.
“Do you look down on me? Why that expression?”
Seeing Bei Ming Hao Chen’s suspicious gaze, Gu Siyu seized the opportunity to press him.
