Chapter 516: Chapter 516: I Am Now His Fiancee Chapter 516: Chapter 516: I Am Now His Fiancee She touched the bracelet in her hand, waiting for the students to finish school.
High school was a boarding school.
A large group of high school students passed by in front of her.
Today happened to be Saturday.
It was the day the students went home for the weekend.
Gu Yalan had seen Gu Qianqian a few times.
Others might not have left a deep impression on her.
But that Gu Qianqian, who caught Luo Fan’s special attention, she recognized very clearly and had remembered well.
So when Gu Qianqian and Qin Xiaoyu, carrying their backpacks, came along the tree-lined road, she approached them with a smiling face and stopped them.
Qin Xiaoyu and Gu Qianqian actually knew Gu Yalan, but they had not expected to see her at school.
They thought they had recognized the wrong person. The two young girls looked at each other, then turned their hesitant gazes toward the proud-looking woman in front of them.
Qin Xiaoyu, always quick to speak, asked, “You are Gu Yalan, right?”
Gu Yalan smiled and nodded, “Yes, I am Gu Yalan. According to the old family hierarchy, you should call me Auntie, but now it doesn’t matter whether you call me that or not.”
Gu Qianqian smiled faintly, “Well, big sister, is there something you need that made you stop us two?”
Gu Yalan knew she could not delay, especially since Luo Fan’s bodyguards and driver were waiting outside the gate.
She raised her wrist and said to Gu Qianqian, “Gu Qianqian, I know you and Luo Fan are close, and you were even closer back in Stone Town, but now I need to tell you that Luo Fan and I are engaged. I am now his fiancee, and this is the family heirloom bracelet that Grandma Luo gave me.”
And it’s with the granddaughter of Ning Wanru, who has always been at odds with her family?
A barely describable emotion suddenly rose in Gu Qianqian’s heart.
However, that emotion was so slight it was almost negligible.
Meanwhile, a hint of indignation arose within her. What did Luo Fan mean by this?
Did he still want to have it both ways?
Their Gu Family and Ning Wanru’s family were already at daggers drawn, yet he had gotten engaged to Gu Yalan.
Trying to please both sides was impossible.
Their Gu Family would not engage in acts of driving a wedge between lovers, but perhaps it meant that Luo Fan could no longer be addressed familiarly in the future.
Gu Qianqian’s thoughts were turbulent, yet her expression remained perfectly calm.
She blinked her clear, sparkling eyes and asked in surprise, “Why do you need to tell me about your engagement with Luo Fan?”
Qin Xiaoyu also asked in puzzlement, “Yeah, big sister, if you and Luo Fan are engaged, that’s your business, but why tell Qianqian? However, I haven’t heard Luo Fan mention this. If you were engaged, he definitely would have told us when he drove us here on Monday.”
Gu Yalan was unmoved, “We just got engaged.”
Gu Qianqian, calm and frowning slightly, said, “But I still don’t understand, why do you need to tell me this?”
“Because Luo Fan doesn’t want to drive you anymore, and he was too embarrassed to say it himself, so he asked me to tell you.”
So that was the reason!
Gu Qianqian and Qin Xiaoyu exchanged glances. Qin Xiaoyu curled her lips, “How could Luo Fan be like that, letting a woman convey such a thing, and besides, it’s not like we don’t have anyone to pick us up. Qianqian, let’s go, never mind her, this is just nonsense…”
Saying so, she took Gu Qianqian’s hand and briskly walked towards the gate.
Gu Yalan did not move; there was no need for her to chase after them.
This matter was just right as it stood.
