Chapter 314: Chapter 315: Don’t Tell Me I’m Disturbing Your World Of Two?
Translator: 549690339
A few kilometers away from Niuqiao Village, there’s a town called Lai Shui.
The town gives off a bit of a water village vibe.
That’s because the entire town is surrounded by water on three sides.
Some houses are even built directly above the water, with residents needing to row a boat just to get out of their houses.
Each year, just before New Year’s Day, Lai Shui hosts a dragon boat race.
It’s probably the most lively event in the whole year, attracting people from miles around.
In addition to the dragon boat race, there are also markets and temple fairs held during these few days.
It just happens to be the liveliest time.
Xia Yangyang agreed without a second thought.
For one, she felt that it was a pity not to take part in such a grand event during her rare visit back home. It was also a perfect opportunity to show Gu Qichen some local customs.
Secondly, Xia Yangyang knew that considering her grandmother’s character, if they stayed at home the next day, her grandmother might find another work for Gu Qichen to do.
Just within two days of their return, Gu Qichen had already done a lot of physical work.
If the Gu family were to find out about this, they would be heartbroken.
After playing at the Han residence for a while, they headed back home.
Once they got home, Gu Qichen was asked by Yangyang’s grandmother to boil two bottles of water.
Xia Yangyang was all the more thankful that they were going out tomorrow.
Early in the morning, Xia Yangyang woke Gu Qichen up.
Her grandmother would be busy in the fields from early morning.
Xia Yangyang urged Gu Qichen, “Get up quickly, otherwise we won’t be able to escape when grandmother returns.”
Gu Qichen was slightly surprised, “Where are you going?”
Xia Yangyang had actually forgotten to tell him; after coming back yesterday, she was immediately overwhelmed by Gu Qichen and hence forgot to communicate this plan.
Xia Yangyang said excitedly, “I’m taking you to a great place today, so you don’t have to be tormented by grandmother at home.”
Gu Qichen noticed that Xia Yangyang was acting mysteriously excited, like a child.
Taken by her enthusiasm, he asked, “Where do you plan to take me?”
“Don’t be impatient. You’ll know when we get there. It’s guaranteed to be a lot of fun.”
Before the grandmother could return, Xia Yangyang and Gu Qichen quickly had breakfast and set off.
Gu Qichen originally planned to drive, but Han Xiaomei’s red Benz came driving towards them.
It stopped right at their doorstep.
Han Xiaomei got out of the car and said, “Yangyang, Brother Gu, let’s take my car. There’s no need to drive two cars. There will be many people in the town today, and there probably won’t be any parking.”
Gu Qichen was initially quite happy.
But upon seeing that red Benz, his brows furrowed instantly.
Meanwhile, Xia Yangyang had already agreed.
She dragged Gu Qichen towards the car.
Gu Qichen said in a low voice, “What’s going on?”
Xia Yangyang laughed and said, “Sister Xiaomei is going with us. It’ll be more fun with more people, and we have a free car to ride.”
Before long, Xia Yangyang had pulled Gu Qichen onto the car.
Han Xiaomei also started the car.
Along the way, Gu Qichen didn’t speak a word.
Xia Yangyang also felt that something was off.
Just now this man was quite cheerful, why did he suddenly seem like a different person?
At the back seat, Xia Yangyang tried to cheer him up, sometimes pinching his hand, sometimes leaning onto him in a playful manner.
But Gu Qichen still seemed uninspired.
Eventually, Xia Yangyang asked softly, “Why are you a bit unhappy?”
Gu Qichen took a glance at Xia Yangyang but didn’t answer.
Han Xiaomei, however, heard these words.
She kept glancing at the couple in the rearview mirror.
Suddenly, Han Xiaomei quipped jokingly, “Brother Gu, you aren’t upset that
I’ve intruded upon your world for two, are you?”
