Chapter 238: Chapter 239: How About Having a Child

Of course, those people were showing respect for the Gu Family from South City.
That day was November nth.
The unofficial Singles’ Day, when last year at the same time, Xia Yangyang had ended her ten-year-old childhood sweetheart relationship.
She really felt like the sky was falling then.
But now, Xia Yangyang turned to look at the man driving beside her…
As it turns out, destiny is like a box of chocolates.
You never know if the next piece of chocolate will be bitter or sweet…
“Why are you staring at me? Do you think your husband is particularly handsome today?”
Gu Qichen’s slightly teasing words drifted over from the side.
Only then did Xia Yangyang come back to her senses.
These past few days, Xia Yangyang moved back into Maple Villa.
Although they had made up in a way.
But there was still a lingering knot.
The name Gu Zhaohan was like a ticking time bomb buried between them.
It was not resolved, but they both tacitly set it aside.
And Xia Yangyang knew that this time bomb would eventually explode at some point.
“Uncle Gu, don’t flatter yourself too much. You should accept your age gracefully.”
“Xia Yangyang, I’m only 28!”
“28 is quite old too.”
Gu Qichen frowned and was silent for a while, then said, “In that case, let’s have a child. After all, waiting any longer would mean having a child late in life.”
Xia Yangyang was instantly on high alert when she heard this.
These days, the old man had been openly and subtly urging them to have a child.
He even had someone send over tonic medicine.
Xia Yangyang was really exasperated.
Xia Yangyang quickly changed his tone: “Young Master Gu, you are young and should prioritize your career. As the ancients say, first establish a career before starting a family. Let’s not rush about the child’s matter.”
“You got it wrong, it’s ‘start a family before initiating a career’,” Gu Qichen said lightly.
“Young Master Gu, Baby Gu, you’re still young, let’s not rush this, okay?”
He was just referred to as Uncle Gu, now he was being called Baby Gu.
This girl’s change of face was faster than flipping through a book.
Soon they arrived at Caesar Hotel.
The waiter immediately greeted them.
After getting out of the car, Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen went to the banquet hall at the top floor together.
Caesar International Hotel is the most luxurious top-tier hotel in its entirety. Once inside, it felt like they were in a palace resplendent with gold and jade.
A lot of people had already arrived at the banquet hall in the ballroom.
With perfume in the air and drinks flowing, the crystal lights scattered like tassels and cast a twinkling glow which flowed faintly.
As the main characters, Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen attracted attention the moment they entered.
Xia Yangyang was just wearing a plain white dress that day, with light makeup. Her skin was naturally fair, her hair shone like bright seaweed, her lips ruby red and her teeth pearlescent, like Snow White from a fairy tale.
Gu Qichen was also dressed in a suit, emanating an exceptional temperament. Standing together, they resembled a princess and a prince, perfectly matched. When they entered, Xia Yangyang was originally walking behind Gu Qichen. Gu Qichen deliberately slowed down to wait for her and took her arm as they walked in together.
Basically all the guests had arrived.
Xia Liangdong and the old man were chatting.
Liu Ruyan was also present.
Seeing them, Liu Ruyan said, “Yangyang, today you’re the star. How can you be so late and make everyone wait for you? That’s a bit thoughtless.”
Before Xia Yangyang could speak, Gu Qichen casually replied, “It was my meeting that got a bit delayed. Besides, today is Yangyang’s birthday, so naturally the birthday girl’s wishes matter the most. Isn’t that right, Aunt Liu?”
