Chapter 399: Back then... I really didn’t
The atmosphere suddenly froze, and Ning Zesheng frowned and said first, "In that case, I’ll head to the hospital and see what exactly is going on!"
"Does an artist’s incident require you to go to the hospital personally?" Gu Xiyao blinked with some curiosity.
He is the person in charge of the company, and such matters really don’t require his immediate attention!
"She is one of the company’s most popular artists!" Ning Zesheng paused and asked Gu Xiyao, "Are you coming with me now, or...?"
"You go ahead! I’ll talk to Little Uncle for a bit and head back myself. See you tonight!" she said with a sweet smile.
Ning Zesheng nodded and then said to Lu Beichen, "I’ll go handle the matter first then!"
Only Lu Beichen and Gu Xiyao were left in the living room. As Gu Xiyao turned to speak to Lu Beichen, he spoke first, "Xiyao, Tongtong is not feeling well today, let’s invite you and Zesheng for dinner another day!"
"No need!" She smiled gently, "I’ll be visiting the Ning Family often recently, so there’s no need for dinner. But, Little Uncle, my parents are busy and can’t come back! Dad said, since Ah Sheng is the excellent son-in-law you personally chose for me, and talking about marriage with the Ning Family, you’ll help me, right? I was really nervous when I saw them at the engagement!"
Lu Beichen nodded, "I am currently collaborating with the Ning Family. Since it’s your marriage, I will naturally perform my duty as an elder. Besides, being able to marry you is the Ning Family’s honor, they won’t intentionally make things difficult!"
As he spoke, he frowned slightly, prompting Gu Xiyao to ask with slight concern, "Little Uncle, are you also worried about that matter?"
"Yes!" Lu Beichen nodded, "Back then, I indeed overdid it! I will certainly facilitate your marriage well! Is there anything else?"
"It seems like Little Uncle is eager to rush me away! Then I’ll be brief!" she said gracefully, "When I was coming back, Mom asked me to tell you one thing, happiness is enough!"
She furrowed her brow suspiciously, "Is there any secret between Little Uncle and Mom? Mom also asked me to hand over a gift to Tongtong, but I forgot to bring it, I’ll bring it to you next time, Little Uncle!"
She noticed a change in Lu Beichen’s expression, although he remained composed and graceful, it carried a bit of seriousness, "Little Uncle, back then, I really didn’t! Regardless of whether you believe it or not, I still want to say it! Also... Tongtong..."
"Maybe I remembered wrong!" She shook her head, seemingly relieved, and said, "Then I’ll head off, Little Uncle. Oh, don’t tell Nian Nian that I’m back, although he might not remember me, but when it’s his birthday, Sister Xiyao will come and celebrate it with him!"
She smiled, went to change her shoes, and left. Lu Beichen followed her to the door, but Gu Xiyao quickly said, "No need to see me off, Little Uncle, go and accompany Tongtong!"
"Whether or not she’s younger than you, don’t mess up the seniority, remember to call her Aunt next time!" Lu Beichen emphasized.
Gu Xiyao took a breath, feeling slightly embarrassed, "Then first let Ah Sheng get used to calling you Little Uncle!"
"That’s sophistry!" Lu Beichen’s tone was slightly heavier, giving a real sense of an elder admonishing a junior.
"What do you mean?" Gu Xiyao replied calmly, "Little Uncle, thank you, you’re still the same as before!"
She said this, turned around, opened the door, and left without a moment’s hesitation!
