Chapter 1197: Canceling Engagement with a Disabled Person (1)
When Miss Guh arrived at the An Family, An Yiqing had just woken up from her nap and was groggily being helped downstairs by Gu Yelin.
These past few days, Gu Yelin had become a bona fide doting husband—no work, no business, sticking by An Yiqing’s side every waking moment. He had delegated all tasks to his subordinates. Even Old Master Gu, who had always been strict with his grandson, stood firmly on Gu Yelin’s side this time, wholeheartedly supporting his decision to focus on taking care of An Yiqing.
When Aunt Li brought Miss Guh inside, Gu Yelin was meticulously feeding An Yiqing some fruit. That level of tenderness and attentiveness was something Miss Guh hadn’t seen from him in all these years.
Jealousy flashed across her eyes as Miss Guh suppressed her inner dissatisfaction and hatred, replacing it with a bright smile.
"May I ask why you’re looking for me?" An Yiqing softly asked, wiping the corner of her mouth.
Looking into An Yiqing’s vacant, watery eyes, a trace of contempt flickered through Miss Guh’s heart. She discreetly glanced at Gu Yelin, only to find that he wouldn’t spare her even the smallest gaze, which deepened the hatred she harbored toward An Yiqing.
"Hello, Miss An, I’m the eldest daughter of the Guh Family, Miss Guh. My grandfather was very worried when you went missing some time ago, so he specifically sent me today to check on you. This is a small gift; please accept it."
Miss Guh smiled gracefully, her demeanor refined, her movements wafting with a light hint of fragrance. As she presented the gift to An Yiqing, the faint curve of her cleavage peeked from beneath her white dress, temptingly alluring.
If Gu Yelin were an ordinary man, he would definitely have been bewitched by such a captivating presence.
But Miss Guh had miscalculated. The man before her continued to hold a plate of grapes, peeling them attentively, not sparing her even a glance.
Clenching her teeth in unwillingness, Miss Guh once again donned a gentle smile.
"Ye Lin, how is Xiao Qing’s injury? When will her eyesight recover?"
