I Became the Favorite of Big Bosses

Chapter 74 I knew it would happen

 “I’ve eaten.”

 Gu Chao's heart trembled. He finished the last bite of rice in the bowl and carried the bowl to the kitchen, but never came out again.

The three of them were the only ones left at the table, and Wei Lan also realized that she had behaved too much just now, in front of Gu Chao's parents.

The more he thought about it, the more uncomfortable he became. Wei Lan glanced nervously at Aunt Gu. Aunt Gu still had a kind face and kind eyes, so Wei Lan felt relieved.

Wei Lan left after eating. She originally wanted to help Grandma Gu clean up the dishes, but Grandma Gu didn't let her go. She also struggled with her impulse at the dinner table, so she didn't force it.

After Wei Lan left, Grandma Gu suddenly became serious. She put away the dishes and said, "Go and find Brother Chao."

 Gu Chao entered the kitchen just now but did not come out. He probably ran away from the bamboo forest in the backyard. He must have expected that she was going to interrogate him.

Youlan's eyes rolled, wondering why grandma suddenly became so serious.

 “Grandma, don’t you like Sister Lan?”

Grandma Gu glanced sternly at Youlan. Youlan was startled and took several steps back. After she realized what she was doing, she ran out to find someone.

Grandma Gu came out of the kitchen after washing the dishes, just as Gu Chao and You Lan came in from outside one after the other.

Grandma Gu was sitting on the bamboo bed in the main room, and Gu Chao was standing in front of her, silent as if he were mute.

"When did this happen?"

“Last month.” Gu Chao lowered his eyes and answered truthfully.

 Last month, on the first day of the educated youth’s arrival, he met her for the second time in Xiaogang.

Emotions are so incomprehensible. He didn't fall in love at first sight, but the girl's panicked little face struck a deep chord in his heart and made him unforgettable for a long time.

I just want to…

　　Place her in your arms, away from the wind, rain, and prying eyes.

 It’s disorganized and extremely ridiculous. "Last month?" Grandma Gu slapped the bamboo bed in disgust, "It's only been a few days since the educated youths went to the countryside. Last month, didn't they just come here?"

 Gu Chao didn’t say anything, and Grandma Gu was helpless. She neither beat nor scolded her. She could only sigh, "How can a girl from a big city like a family like ours? Not to mention that we get status like this..."

"It was my fault. I failed to teach you two brothers and sisters well." Grandma Gu wiped her tears and said no more.

Her grooved face was full of regret, "If I had known this, I should have stopped you two brothers and sisters when Lan Ya mentioned this girl!"

Each of these children who went to the countryside were held in the palm of their hands at home for fear of falling, and held in their mouths for fear of melting. They were pampered, but Grandma Gu could not say anything bad about Wei Lan.

Wei Lan looks down on Brother Chao, and Grandma Gu is afraid that Brother Chao will be sad.

But Wei Lan is attracted to Brother Chao, and Grandma Gu is afraid that one day Brother Chao's qualities will harm other girls.

 No matter what kind of situation it is, it is not what Grandma Gu wants to see.

Grandma Gu wiped her tears, got up and walked to the room where she slept, "You can't get involved in that girl's affairs anymore. As for the clothes I promised her, I will return them now."

"Grandma!" Gu Chao's heart tightened, and when he realized what he was doing, he had already stopped in front of Grandma Gu, "Grandma, don't do this."

 “Grandma, I have a sense of propriety, I will not hurt her.”

Gu Chao's parents died early, and he knew how difficult it was for his grandmother to raise him and his sister since they were young.

He couldn't say anything to disobey or contradict, but he couldn't help but ignore Wei Lan's affairs at all.

  He knew that his thoughts were selfish, but since when did that girl occupy such an important position in his heart, even he himself didn't know.

Emotions are something you can never let go of. Once you have determined it, you will find it difficult to turn back even if you know there is a dead end ahead.
