Shen Xi threw her phone aside and got up to look at the rows of clothes in front of her. She randomly picked a light pink dress and specially put on makeup. She put on a suitable necklace before going out.
Gu Chen was a considerate person. He would even prepare all the things that girls used neatly.
When Shen Xi!s door opened, a tall and beautiful figure appeared in front of Shen Xi. It was Gu Chen who was standing at the door in a daze.
Gu Chenâs expression was originally conflicted and hesitant. When he saw Shen Xiâs beautiful face which was neatly dressed, his heart suddenly blossomed.
She had bright eyes and white teeth. When she walked out in this light pink dress, she was like a little elf who had suddenly walked into Gu Chenâs heart. She was beautiful and made people want to get close to her.
âWhat are you doing standing here?â Shen Xi looked at Gu Chen who was a little dumbfounded and asked in confusion.
âl wanted to wake you up for breakfast, but I was afraid that you werenât awake yet, so I was hesitating whether to knock on the door.â Gu Chen came back to his senses and said a little embarrassedly.
âl didnât expect you to be so timid.â Shen Xi teased. It was just a door. What was there to be afraid of knocking? Iâm not a tiger or a beast. Letâs go eat.â Gu Chen smiled embarrassedly and nodded obediently.
Shen Yan and his wife, who was standing not far away and watching Gu Chen and Shen Xi get along, shook their heads in disbelief.
Shen Xi walked in front with such a posture, and Gu Chen walked behind like a
little wife. People who didnât know would probably think that this was Shen Xiâs home.
Otherwise, who would be like Gu Chen in his own house? He had a sense of awkwardness as if he was living under someone elseâs roof. He even walked so carefully?
âl always thought that if our daughter had any contact with Gu Chen, she would be schemed against by that vixen. Now it seems that it doesnât seem like it!â Lu Shan said in disbelief.
Shen Yan also found it hard to believe. He shook his head and said, âIt seems that there are some things that canât be summarized.â
Lu Shan nodded in agreement.
âl donât remember your parents. What are you doing here?â Shen Xi asked with a smile as he approached Shen Yan and his wife at the stairwell.
Shen Yan and Lu Shan laughed at Shen Xiâs address. âXi, canât you just call us Mom and Dad? Even if you lose your memory, blood relations are not something that can be ignored just because you lose your memory.â
âIâm not used to it yet.â Shen Xi pursed her lips.
The few of them chatted and laughed as they went downstairs. Even Gu Chen followed them downstairs with a smile on his face.
Just as they reached the dining table, Shen Yanâs phone rang.
Shen Yan picked up the phone. Within a few seconds, his expression became a little ugly. He looked at Gu Chen suspiciously.
Then, Lu Shan received a call that made her smile disappear. At the same time, she turned her gaze to Gu Chen.
After the two hung up the phone, Shen Yan looked at Gu Chen with a dark gaze and questioned, âGu Chen, did you do something behind our back?â
âGu Chen, your little trick wonât affect the business of the Shen Lu families. Are you sure you want to go against us?â Lu Shan asked in a deep voice.
âGu Chen, what did you do?â Shen Xi looked at Gu Chen suspiciously and whispered.
When Gu Chen heard Shen Xi call him Gu Chen instead of Chen, he was in a bad mood and even felt a little wrong.
However, now that Shen Xi was in front of him, he was unwilling to show Shen Xi his bad side, so he could only maintain his smile. He asked with a
puzzled look, âUncle, Auntie, I donât know what youâre talking about. Is there a misunderstanding?â
âDonât play dumb.â Shen Yan snorted coldly. âAre you trying to get us to go back and deal with the companyâs matters so that you can be alone with Xi openly?â
Gu Chen looked at Shen Yan in surprise and asked, âSo, is there something wrong with Uncle and Auntieâs company? Although the Gu familyâs ability is limited, if Uncle and Auntie need anything, the Gu family will do our best to
Shen Yan did not listen to Gu Chenâs words. He wanted to continue attacking Gu Chen, but Shen Xi spoke.
âDad, Mom, if you have something to do at home, you can go back and deal with it first. Iâm already so old. Nothing will happen to me.â Shen Xi advised..
