Chapter 91: A Good Show
Gu Fuqiao knew Old Mrs. Gu was formidable, but every time she saw her rebuke the unruly siblings, she couldn’t help feeling a bit pleased. However, at the current dinner table, it was just her, Father Gu, Mother Gu, and Ouyang Xuan.
She was at a complete disadvantage, so Gu Fuqiao decided not to eat anymore. Just as she was putting her bowl and chopsticks aside and preparing to get up, Ouyang Xuan stopped her, saying, "Ah Jiao, it’s been such a long time since I last thought of you. I wonder if you’ve thought of your cousin?"
If normal siblings said this, there’d be no problem... but since Ouyang Xuan said it, the words took on a completely different and somewhat sleazy undertone.
Gu Fuqiao glanced at him indifferently and said, "Good actually, I coexist peacefully with my Yan Camp Commander at home and have friendly exchanges every day."
Normally, she referred to Yan Zhen Guo as either my Zhen Guo or Old Yan, but calling him Yan Camp Commander in front of Ouyang Xuan was an intentional warning—this is a military marriage; don’t attempt to cause destruction.
Sure enough, right after Gu Fuqiao finished speaking, a momentary blank stare appeared on Ouyang Xuan’s face, but he quickly sat down and chatted cordially with Mother Gu.
Gu Fuqiao was too lazy to listen to the specifics of their conversation, which was likely about inquiring after Mother Gu’s health and whether she’d been experiencing morning sickness. A surgeon, acting as an obstetrician—though given Ouyang Xuan’s perverted nature, being an obstetrician suited him well, albeit slightly twisted.
After saying she was full, Gu Fuqiao turned and went upstairs. Upon returning to her room, she locked it tightly.
