Chapter 808: Yusheng’s Proposal (2)

Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio

Due to her agitation, the tone of Mother Qin’s whisper was high enough for everyone at the table to hear her.

Cheater... Xiaowang narrowly avoided spitting out his mouthful of food when he swiftly raised his hand and covered his twitching lips.

“Mom!” Qin Zhi’ai shoved Mother Qin’s elbow discreetly.

Only now did Mother Qin realize that she had been too loud. She hurriedly shut her mouth and glanced awkwardly at Gu Yusheng. Xiaowang’s gaze drifted to Gu Yusheng, as well.

The man himself was sitting elegantly and leisurely before the dining table. His delicate face was filled with warmth, and his lips were stretched into a smile; he looked like a courteous, full-fledged gentleman.

If he wasn’t gripping his chopsticks so tightly that his knuckles were turning white, people would believe that he had not heard the statement Mother Qin had just made. Xiaowang was already anticipating the reaction.

No one has ever talked about Gu Yusheng like this in his entire life. I’m afraid this is his limit when it comes to maintaining a friendly appearance.

Nobody expected Gu Yusheng’s subsequent reaction, to the point that even Xiaowang was shocked.

Gu Yusheng stopped eating when he saw Mother Qin looking at him. He gave her an elegant and polite smile before greeting her. “Auntie Qin, hello. My name is Gu Yusheng.”

Usually an unsmiling person, Gu Yusheng had never smiled as much as he had on this night. His facial features were exquisite and, when he smiled at Mother Qin, he appeared even more dazzling and eye-catching.

Even though Mother Qin was more than 50 years old, she still grew dizzy from the sight of his smile. Cold air filled her lungs as she inhaled. After a while, she belatedly realized that she had lost her composure and quickly picked up something from one of the dishes. She then stared into Gu Yusheng’s eyes. His expression looked normal; it was as though he had not heard her conversation with Qin Zhi’ai. It was only then that Mother Qin sighed in relief.

Even though Qin Zhi’ai had already told Mother Qin that Gu Yusheng was the person proposing marriage, Mother Qin still found this slightly incredulous. As such, she said, “Mr. Gu, you and Xiao’ai...”

No matter how Mother Qin thought about it, the subsequent words “are getting married” seemed too good to be true. As such, she stopped before she could complete her sentence.

As for Gu Yusheng, he was certainly not in a rush to answer Mother Qin’s question. A light smile hung on his lips. “Mother Qin, you can call me Xiaogu or Yusheng.”

Xiaogu... Xiaowang nearly laughed out loud. He managed to forcefully suppress it and turned it into a cough.

Gu Yusheng glanced at Xiaowang. This time, Xiaowang had managed to suppress even his coughing. He lowered his head and tried to pick up the food in his bowl. It was what Mother Qin had picked out for him and, before he even got a chance to eat it, he felt his back muscles tightening. At that, he discreetly lifted his eyes and saw Gu Yusheng staring at the food he was holding between his chopsticks. He had expected this. Xiaowang hurriedly placed it back into his bowl and dared not continue eating anymore.

It was only then that Gu Yusheng retracted his gaze, satisfied. He spoke to Mother Qin courteously and respectfully, “Mother Qin, I know that you’re not particularly at ease about my relationship with Xiao’ai, but I love her very much.”

Gu Yusheng had previously helped Qin Jiayan by bringing several reputable people to his school. Never forgetting that, Mother Qin was always courteous to him and never felt like he was a snob from upper society. Now, he was not only allowing her to call him “Xiaogu” or “Yusheng,” he was also professing his love for Xiao’ai. Mother Qin found herself instantly growing fonder of Gu Yusheng—even the distance between them seemed to be growing shorter.
