Tang Yuyan furrowed her brows and glanced at her son again, "You should call him ’brother-in-law’!"
"Brother-in-law?" Nangong Xi tilted his head, calling the title for the first time.
And this title seemed quite new to Qin Sijue as well. Especially when it came from Nangong Xi’s mouth, it was as if he had no choice but to call him ’brother-in-law’!
Thinking of this, he actually found himself waiting for Nangong Xi to call him ’brother-in-law’.
The little guy stared at him for a long time, his lips pursed, reluctant to call him that.
Seeing his reluctance, Gu Qiangwei couldn’t help feeling somewhat embarrassed as she spoke, "It’s okay, if you’re not used to it, you don’t have to call him that, after all..." She glanced at Qin Sijue, then added, "We haven’t had a wedding ceremony."
"Really?" The little guy was delighted, thinking he really didn’t have to call him that.
He looked at Gu Qiangwei, still waiting for her confirmation.
At this point, Qin Sijue couldn’t help but interject.
"We have already obtained our marriage certificate, isn’t that more valuable than a lousy wedding ceremony?"
You should know, without that certificate, even if a wedding ceremony is held, they’re not legally husband and wife, okay!
Gu Qiangwei lifted her eyes, angry at his reference to a ’lousy wedding ceremony’! Suddenly, she felt that no matter how gentle he was, he still didn’t understand women!
You should know, a woman has only one wedding ceremony in her lifetime, and if she doesn’t have it, it’s a huge regret, right!
Of course, she couldn’t say such things out loud; it would seem as if she was demanding a wedding ceremony.
She didn’t speak, just glared at him unhappily.
Qin Sijue was taken aback by her stare, a bit puzzled.
Was there something wrong with what he said?
"Don’t get angry over Xixi," Tang Yuyan said, seeing the change in her daughter’s face and knowing as an experienced person what she was upset about, afraid they would really start arguing.
Gu Qiangwei turned her head and gave her mother a slight smile, "We won’t, we’re always ."
Qin Sijue hadn’t felt that there was often tension between them.
Gu Qiangwei just shot him a look that said: If you don’t speak, no one will treat you as mute!
"Alright, you should go back to have your meal, don’t keep the elders waiting, it’s not polite for the younger generation to do so," Tang Yuyan urged.
Gu Qiangwei looked at her, then stood up, "I’ll come to see you again in the afternoon."
After responding, she turned to her son, "Xixi, say goodbye to your sister and brother-in-law."
"Sister, goodbye!" Nangong He waved at Gu Qiangwei, and then turned to Qin Sijue. It was just a title, after all, it didn’t cost him anything, "Brother-in-law, goodbye!"
Hearing this title for the first time, Qin Sijue felt pleased inside, of course, there was no hint of emotion on his face, maintaining his prideful and aloof demeanor, as he wrapped his arm around Gu Qiangwei and prepared to leave.
Just as they stepped out of the hospital room, he suddenly paused as if he remembered something important.
Gu Qiangwei also turned her head following his halt, gazing at his somber profile.
Qin Sijue didn’t look at her but turned his head, fixing his gaze directly on Nangong Mingchuan, who had accompanied them to the door.
Feeling the sudden focus of his gaze, Nangong Mingchuan was somewhat taken aback.
He could sense that Qin Sijue seemed to have something to say to him?
Looking at Nangong Mingchuan, Qin Sijue opened his mouth, hesitating to speak for the first time.
Because, with the revelation of Gu Qiangwei’s true identity, he suddenly realized something...
If Gu Qiangwei was his wife, then didn’t that make Nangong Mingchuan his father-in-law?
"You... come here for a sec."
